Living in North America, working from 9 to 5

Chapter 33 Gordon's Rescue
Seeing that it was Gordon Fury, Richard, who was still nervous, immediately went up to him and said, "Chief!"

Gordon patted Richard on the shoulder and asked:
"Is anyone hurt?"

Richard led Gordon around a police car and looked at Officer House lying on the ground. "Officer House's arm was hit by a shotgun."

"Is everyone else okay?"

Gordon looked around at everyone and shouted.

Four police officers at the scene, including Roy, made an "OK" gesture.

Richard came to Gordon and whispered:

"Commander, we've taken the wrong path."

"Wrong way?" Gordon was stunned.

According to the bird's-eye view map of the community, there are five asphalt roads running horizontally through the community. No. 1803 is on the third one and No. 1801 is on the second one. The two villas are back to back and their main entrances correspond to different roads.

No one knows how it happened, but Richard, who was leading the team, turned into the alley where No. 1803 was located, and then by accident led the team to No. 1803.

For this family, this was a disaster that came out of nowhere and there was no way to reason with them.

Richard pulled Gordon aside and explained in a low voice.

There are some words that cannot be recorded by the law enforcement recording equipment in the police car.

While Richard was explaining, policewoman Mia came to Roy.

She leaned gently on the trunk of Roy's police car, patted the trunk cover with her hand, and said to Roy: "Thank you for saving us."

Roy looked at Mia's hand patting the trunk lid and said:
"This is what I should do."

The next second, Mia leaned on the trunk lid with both hands and sat on it with her whole body. The two rear wheels of the police car were pressed down two centimeters by Mia's weight.

She hooked her palm at Roy.

Roy walked up to Mia.

Mia leaned close to Roy's ear and whispered:
"Can we patrol as a team from now on?"

Roy: "..."

"What? No?"

Seeing that Roy didn't answer immediately, Mia asked quickly.

"You'll have to ask Jonathan."

Roy pushed the problem to Jonathan who was not present.

"Okay, I'll talk to Jonathan tomorrow at work."

Roy: "..."

at this time,

Sitting on the ground and leaning against the police car, House groaned in pain. This was due to the decrease in the number of adrenal glands in his body and the failure of the brain to block the pain.

Generally speaking, when the human body is suddenly injured, the body will instantly secrete a large amount of adrenaline to suppress the pain and keep the brain excited and awake.

But as time goes by, hormone levels drop, the pain will become more and more obvious and greater, and the previous state of excitement will immediately turn into a state of fatigue.

The injured police officer House is going through this process.

Hearing House's painful groan, Mia immediately jumped out of Roy's police car, took out a tube of disposable epinephrine from the first aid kit and injected it directly into House's leg. Then she took out a large bottle of 500 painkillers, unscrewed the lid, and fed House five pills.

Roy thought to himself: Won’t it be an overdose?

suddenly,

Roy seemed to see something out of the corner of his eye.

He turned his head and saw that there seemed to be a head on the wall behind the villa.

[Sensory Peeping: Perception +1]

[Dark Night Observation: Eyesight +1]

Seeing Roy's reaction, the uninjured Officer Tom looked in the direction Roy was looking and took out his high-intensity police flashlight to shine it.

It is indeed a head.

A bald man was climbing over the wall and looking over here. Roy immediately thought of something.

He reminded Richard, who was talking to Gordon:

"Captain, our police mission has not been completed yet."

Hearing this, Richard, who was explaining to Gordon, was stunned.

Roy pointed to the wall where the head had just appeared. "I think that house is 1801, and the man just now should be Jaron Sanborn."

Because of the fierce gunfight that had just taken place, the police officers who responded to the call had forgotten why they came here in the first place.

Gordon patted Richard on the shoulder again and said:
"Okay, I get it. Don't worry. Even if you went the wrong way, if, as you said, the people in this villa opened the door and raised their guns, then your counterattack is reasonable, legal, and compliant. Don't worry, get ready for your vacation."

"Thank you, Chief!"

Richard looked at Gordon with grateful eyes.

"Richard, Tom, you two go check out 1801. Mia stays here to take care of House. I'll be watching the scene here. Roy, come here."

As the highest-ranking officer on the scene, Gordon gave the order.

"Roger that, sir!"

"Yes, sir!"

Officer Tom walked towards Captain Richard.

Roy came to Gordon.

The two men looked at each other and tacitly glanced at the trunk of Roy's police car out of the corner of their eyes.

Gordon returned to his private car, took out a gift box sealed with tape and beautifully packaged, handed it to Roy, and said in a loud voice:
"Roy, please help me deliver this box to Abby's house. Today is her birthday. We had planned to have a candlelight dinner together, but I have to deal with Richard's matter. It seems that I can't go. Please say sorry to her when you see her."

Roy took the box and nodded: "Okay, Chief."

He naturally knew that Gordon was looking for an excuse to get himself out of this situation.

Holding the gift box, Roy walked towards his police car.

Gordon's voice came from behind: "Roy, hurry back to the bureau as soon as you deliver the things. You still have to write a report."

"Yes, Director!"

bang——

Roy closed the door.

He opened the driver's visor and the spare key fell into his hand.

Inserting the spare key and turning the ignition, Roy drove the police car away.

No one at the scene would doubt what Gordon had just said. At the moment, Gordon was wearing a dress and leather shoes, which was quite formal. Anyone who was not stupid could tell that he was out on a date.

Gordon's wife is missing and has long been declared dead. It's normal for a single Gordon to talk about his new girlfriend, and it's also completely normal for him to assign Roy to go.

It was well known that Gordon gave Roy special care in the bureau, and many people also knew that Roy would usually help Gordon run errands and handle personal matters.

In addition, since such a big thing happened at the scene, it was only natural for Gordon to stay and clean up the aftermath. Although it was a bit inappropriate to send Roy away at this time, he was the director after all, and no one dared to question anything.

When leaving the community, Roy met the ambulance and the support convoy head-on. When the vehicles met, both sides greeted each other using high beams.

suddenly,

Roy heard gunshots in the distance.

The gunshots came from behind.

Roy guessed that Richard and the others must have had a quarrel with Jaron Sanborn, and since they had left, it had nothing to do with him anymore.

With one foot pressed, the throttle is halfway.

The police car codenamed 404 entered the main road and merged into the traffic.

If the two bodies in the trunk stayed in there for one more second, they would become two time bombs that could explode at any time. Roy had to rush back to the safe house as soon as possible to dispose of the two bodies.

As for how to deal with it.

Roy knows what's going on...
