Tokyo Detective

Chapter 292 Famous in America
Naoki Hanyu put away his rocket launcher, his expression turning serious. He had almost been surrounded by these bastards; it was time to leave.

Naoki Hanyu rushed out of the villa and ran into the woods, where he encountered the arriving special police officers at a distance of more than 300 meters.

Without hesitation, both sides opened fire simultaneously in the next second, with bullets from automatic rifles and light machine guns flying everywhere.

Naoki Hanyu emerged unharmed from the storm, but the SWAT team was not so lucky.

One SWAT team member was shot and lay on the ground. The 7.62×51mm bullets from the light machine gun were far beyond the protection of body armor. Another SWAT officer hiding behind a small tree was shot through the tree trunk and blown to the head. The other SWAT officers were so frightened that they hurriedly sought cover.

At this moment, the SWAT team leader had fallen into a state of impotent rage, what the hell, what the hell.

Hitting a moving target from over 300 meters away in the dark is unbelievable, even with night vision goggles. Are all criminals sharpshooters one in a million?

“Call for backup immediately. Use all the helicopters in Los Angeles and have all the on-duty police officers cordon off the southern Long Beach area. I absolutely cannot let any of the criminals get away.”

This mission resulted in the deaths of 13 SWAT officers and injuries to 3 others. It was the first time in the history of the Los Angeles SWAT team that so many people had been killed or injured, an entire team. It was a disgrace.

"The villa area will be handed over to our colleagues who are on their way, and the Los Angeles SWAT team will use a wedge formation to pursue them."

The wedge formation consists of members arranged in a triangle, with the vanguard at the front and members on both sides responsible for guarding the flanks, facilitating a rapid response to threats from multiple directions.

The entire special police team of 60 people, except for those on leave, had 36 people in 3 groups participating in this mission. He just couldn't believe that they couldn't catch a terrorist.

That's right, he already considers Naoki Hanyu's Death Squad to be terrorists, and he'll write that in his report. As for waiting for the police dogs to arrive before giving chase, that's a waste of time. Are you going to take responsibility for letting the terrorists escape?

As the SWAT team rushed into the woods, a loud explosion was heard the next second.

Of the six special police officers, three died on the spot, while the other three lay on the ground screaming in agony, their bodies pierced by steel balls.

"what"

The team next door rushed over to provide support.

"There are anti-personnel directional mines in the woods."

Gunshots suddenly rang out from deep in the woods. Bullets pierced through the narrow gaps in the trees and struck two special police officers, frightening the others who hid behind trees or lay on the ground in fear.

"There's an ambush! There's an ambush! Everyone be careful!"

"Group 4 is here to provide support."

Soon after, another explosion was heard through the communication system.

"boom."

"45215 triggered a landmine. Watch out, damn it, who knows how many landmines are in this environment."

"bang bang bang bang bang"

"Two people in Group 2 have been shot. The enemy is lying in ambush at point C."

At that moment, the SWAT captain broke out in a cold sweat, and his hands and feet became stiff.

How many landmines are there in this small forest? And does that sharpshooter really only have one companion, or are there more companions waiting for them to walk into the trap?

At this moment, the captain had the idea of ​​retreating. He was afraid. The dark forest was like a gaping abyss. If he rashly rushed into the enemy's position, he didn't know how many people would die.

Unless he sets the mountain on fire or uses special weapons to break through, he wouldn't dare do the first, and he doesn't have the second option.

"Everyone get out of the woods and contact the Coast Guard. I need support from armed helicopters. No, I need their support."

"Yes."

The Coast Guard is the weakest of America's six branches of the armed forces, but also the strongest law enforcement agency. In times of war, it can be integrated with the Navy to operate together.

America's six branches of the armed forces are the Army, Air Force, Navy, Space Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard.

Fortunately, there is a Coast Guard station at the Port of Los Angeles, located only 17 kilometers away, making it the closest military unit.

Local police would never call the Coast Guard for help unless they had no other choice, which would demonstrate their incompetence.

Nowadays, who knows how many directional landmines have been planted in the forest, or how many heavily armed criminals there are. If ordinary police officers break in without night vision equipment, who knows how many people will die.

Fifteen minutes later, gunshots rang out intermittently from the woods. Several Coast Guard armed helicopters arrived first, representing the Coast Guard's naval air force.

The MH-60T "Jayhawk" is equipped with an M240 machine gun and a GAU-17/A mini cannon.

The MH-65 "Dolphin" has the same firepower as the MH60.

Knowing that the other side had rocket launchers and possibly even man-portable air defense systems, the helicopters dared not fly too low.

Shortly afterward, the Coast Guard’s Los Angeles division’s special forces arrived. This was a maritime security response team that was no weaker than the federal SWAT team. Although it only had 24 people, it still made the Los Angeles SWAT team bow their heads.

Despite being special forces, they were so intimidated by the enemy that they had to ask the Coast Guard for help.

But there was nothing that could be done. The SWAT team had suffered more than 20 casualties, losing a third of its personnel, and its men were already showing signs of fatigue.

The security response team then launched a three-pronged attack, but was quickly met with resistance.

"The 'Eagle' was hit; the enemy was at a 45-degree angle."

"Landmine ahead, watch out, watch out."

"We have already latched onto the enemy."

The newly summoned righteous clone, seeing itself cornered, could only sigh and dissolve its existence, since the original body had already fled. Soon, a terrible answer left everyone present dumbfounded: Where was the person? Where had such a large person gone? They were just biting it, and were completely surrounded from all sides.

Even the western coast was blockaded by naval forces; how exactly did the enemy manage to escape?

The special forces searched the dense canopy and the ground, and when they confirmed there were no enemies, they were devastated. One teammate had died, and this was the result.

On the contrary, the SWAT team captain breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this scene. Now he could explain to his superiors that it wasn't that his side was incompetent, but rather that the enemy was too powerful.

Look, even the battle-hardened security response team caught nothing and lost a life. This is a real special forces unit.

Within an hour, America’s FBI was alerted and quickly dispatched dozens of elite agents to participate in the 718 case.

July 718th is today's date, which unfortunately is also the date of the new president's election.

Such a large case naturally involved not only the FBI, but also the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the National Security Agency (NSA).

Just like the Boston Marathon bombing (2013): the FBI led the investigation, the DHS provided on-site emergency response, and the NSA analyzed the suspect's communications records.

Soon, the FBI learned a shocking story based on the testimonies of the remaining lucky gang members and some blurry surveillance footage.

A mere seven people wiped out more than 70 armed gang members, and later killed or wounded more than 20 special police officers and a special forces soldier.

Seven people killed over a hundred and two escaped; they were practically death itself, like a squad of death.

This record shocked all of America, and even the world. When did America's law enforcement become so incompetent?

What worried the SWAT team leader the most was that if his subordinates hadn't insisted on the raid, perhaps these 20-plus lives could have been saved.

Fortunately, the police chief did not blame the SWAT team, since it's impossible to truly believe what the criminals say when faced with a crime.

The Los Angeles Police Department then fully cooperated with the joint investigation team, and the Kinker family, which was still entangled with the remnants of the Hardy family, was immediately placed under full investigation.

Inside the interrogation room, Peterkink, wearing glasses, calmly looked at the two agents in front of him, but his hands were trembling under the table.

The matter has escalated too much. I thought that even if that unknown guy couldn't completely destroy the Hardy family, he could at least weaken some of their enemy's power.

Who knew that things would turn out so well that even his ally would become a scapegoat? Now he can say he doesn't know them, but the investigation team has already said that if he doesn't provide help, they will directly blame the Kink family. Even his allies in Los Angeles don't dare to get involved, so he has no choice but to confess.

Family, this is so unlucky.

“Detectives, I have explained everything I know.”

"Didn't he leave his number with you? Call him later, I need to see where he is."

Police plan to use cell tower triangulation to pinpoint the location of the caller, as the phone will connect to a nearby cell tower during a call.

Police obtained signals from multiple base stations (at least three) connected to the mobile phone through the operator and calculated the approximate location based on the time difference of arrival (TDOA) or signal strength (RSSI).

When the call connected, Pete tried to keep his voice steady.

"You've made a huge fuss, even dragging me into it."

A standard London accent came through.

"Hahaha, you're just a fool I'm using. I bet there are police officers next to you."

As for why I used you, remember the woman who was driven to her death by your two scumbag gangs five years ago? I originally wanted to take you down too, you idiot, but it seems I can't now. I wish you a happy time in prison.

The communication was quickly disconnected, and the investigation team located the source of the credit information.

"Swan Street, Santa Monica, everyone move quickly!"

At this point, the investigation team leader hesitated to deal with the Kings family. It seemed that they were being used and were also victims, and that the other party might take further action against the Kings family.

Of course, this is on the premise that what the other party says is true. So he won't naively believe that everything said is true. He will still investigate what needs to be investigated. For example, Naoki Hanyu, who just became enemies with the Hardy family, is unlikely to be a suspect since he left America during the day. However, the CIA will still have to ask him.

As for the Kink family, let's leave it to the local law; at most, he can request leniency.

At the same time, surging waves crashed into an abandoned small harbor, and Naoki Hanyu, soaking wet, walked ashore and dug out a package from a place he had buried beforehand.

Inside were fake documents, clothes, cell phones, and US dollars. The phone call he just received was an arrangement he made to have an accomplice go in the opposite direction to mislead the investigation.

After putting on his clothes, wig, beard, and other makeup, Naoki Hanyu took a few steps and couldn't help but pat his head.

Feeling only 11 points of energy is really terrible. I'll take a nap and move on to the next target tomorrow. This time, I want to solve the problem once and for all.

In a remote town apartment, Naoki Hanyu woke up feeling mostly refreshed, and the system suddenly sent him a notification.

[Ding! Your deeds have shaken America. Your terrifying record has made both the underworld and the legitimate world wary of you. You have been awarded the high-level title of Death Squad.]

[Death Squad (Advanced): This title instills fear in civil servants of any country in the world, and reduces the cost of summoning clones by 3%. Spirit +20]

It actually reduces the mana consumption of clones; that's a really useful title.

This time, the trouble resulted in a 7-star Sinful title and a high-level title. Not bad at all.

The next second, the system emitted an even more pleasant sound.

[Ding! Obtained a weapon exclusive to the Grim Reaper Squad.]
