Chapter 624 Here Comes the Helicopter
After he opened the door and got out, Selina immediately moved to the driver’s seat. Taking note of Luke’s movements, she waited for the best timing before she floored the gas pedal and charged out.
Propping the M4A1 on the open car window, she didn’t aim at all but simply held down the trigger as the car charged onto the street and into an alley opposite.
The criminals had just picked up their accomplices from the armored trucks. They were about to turn around and chase after the convoy, when the unexpected shooting happened.
Looking at the Chevrolet that flashed past, the criminals’ teeth ached with hate.
It was precisely this plain Chevrolet that blew up the tires of the armored trucks and wounded quite a number of their comrades.
The convoy had already disappeared, yet this car was still haunting them like a ghost.
But the criminals had a commander as well.
After a burst of scolding from the walkie-talkie, the criminals who had planned to chase the car turned to go after the convoy instead.
The one-hundred-million-dollar reward was more important than avenging their partners.
The deaths of several allies wasn’t a big deal. That just means there’s fewer people to spli the money with the leader of the criminals murmured to himself.
Suddenly, there was a series of gunshots, and the SUV the commander was in veered off the road before coming to a stop.
The driver: “Boss, our tires were blown up too.”
The commander: “…Arghhh, find that G.o.dd.a.m.n cop! I’m going to kill him!” Three of the dozen cars immediately stopped. At the commander’s orders, the criminals headed to where the gunshots had come from.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
After a series of gunshots, the air suddenly quieted down.
A moment later, the criminals reported via the walkie-talkie, “Boss, our tires were blown up too.”
The commander seethed with fury. “All three cars?”
“All their tires were blown up.”
“Sh*t! How can that be?”
“Boss, what do we do? We’ll be surrounded by the police if we run.”
The commander thought for a moment and said, “Get out and grab the wounded cops as hostages. Their cars should still work.”
Altogether, eleven criminals got out of the three cars as well as the commander’s car.
They were quite professional. They stayed low and took cover behind corners and various things on the side of the road as they advanced.
They weren’t stupid!
That cop in the Chevrolet was too good at shooting
They weren’t the machine gun shooters and didn’t have any protective s.h.i.+elds, and even with bulletproof vests on, a few shots to the chest would still leave them gasping for air.
When that happened, they wouldn’t be able to run even if they wanted to.
Just as they approached the position Luke had fired from earlier, there was the rumble of an engine, and a familiar Chevrolet emerged from the corner of the street behind them with a gun propped on the open window. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! The Chevrolet flew past them as a series of bullets. .h.i.t their cover.
The eleven criminals all took cover. If they didn’t have any cover, they could only lie on the ground.
Even so, two unlucky b.a.s.t.a.r.ds were still hit. They clutched their b.u.t.ts and yelled in pain.
At that moment, Luke appeared from the side and sprinted so that he was to one side behind them.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Five criminals were all shot in the head and killed.
These guys were all wearing bulletproof vests. Luke wasn’t interested in wasting time on them.
A chill crept into the hearts of the remaining three criminals. They stuck their guns out in an approximate direction and fired wildly.
Selina’s car just happened to stop in front of Luke. Looking at his hand signal, she threw the car into reverse and backed up at a steady pace.
Using the car as cover, Luke kept pace with the front of the car.
Bam, bam! Bam, bam! Bam, bam! Bam, bam!
Luke killed all the criminals except for the commander with one shot.
He still had to go back up the convoy, and couldn’t leave too many survivors here.
He couldn’t be bothered to show any mercy to people who confronted police cars with heavy machine guns.
Luke finally walked over and his gun s.h.i.+fted slightly.
Bam! Bam!
The commander in the bulletproof vest screamed when he was shot in the knees.
As the leader, he could be kept alive, but that didn’t mean his limbs had to be intact.
Luke finally stepped forward and kicked the criminals’ weapons to the side. He then waved at the three motorbike riders not far away. “He’s all yours. If he tries anything, kill him. The department won’t say anything.
“Have HQ send backup and take care of the scene.” After cuffing the criminals’ commander, he got into the driver’s seat of his car. Selina had already moved to the pa.s.senger seat.
The Chevrolet suddenly sped up and chased after the convoy.
Luke had only driven several hundred meters, when he sensed something and turned his head. “Selina, take a look at the sky. I think I hear choppers.”
Right as he said that, two helicopters flew over their heads in the direction of the convoy.
A moment later, gunshots rang out, and the comms exploded with activity.
“HQ, we’re under attack from hostile choppers.”
“Officer down in Car 433! Officer down in Car
275!”
“We need backup. We need air support!”
Luke frowned and bent his head slightly to look out the winds.h.i.+eld at the sky.
Two Bell helicopters were hovering in the sky, and four criminals were doing a mad sweep with M249 machine guns.
“This is Vulture, this is Vulture. We’re too far away right now to provide support.” The officers on the helicopter also felt helpless.
They were flying high enough so that they wouldn’t be easily shot down from the ground, but that also meant that they were far from the criminals’ helicopters down below.
Until they descended to a suitable alt.i.tude, the convoy had to withstand the attack from the choppers on their own.
Luke: “You drive and let the convoy know that I’ll take care of the choppers.”
Selina cooperated smoothly with him. The moment he put down the seat and moved backward, she had already taken over the wheel, and she stepped on the gas pedal again.
Now that her physique had improved significantly, she could complete these difficult movements effortlessly.
At the same time, she raised the back of the seat again and opened the sunroof for Luke.
Luke stuck his head out of the sunroof. “Take the street on the left.”
Selina turned the car into a small side street before coming out on a street on the left.
At that moment, the car was on the left behind the criminals’ helicopters.
The moment the car reached the street on the left, Luke opened fire with his M4A1.
He aimed through his scope at the machine gun shooters a hundred meters high in the sky.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
One of the shooters suddenly fell back into the cabin of the helicopter.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! The second shooter folded over and dangled out of the cabin door.
The criminals’ firepower was instantly reduced.
Luke: “The other side.”
Selina turned the car and drove to the right of the second helicopter.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
A series of bullet holes appeared in the gla.s.s in front of the startled pilot, and the helicopter slanted away.
