Star Wars: Escape from the Jedi Temple Begins
Chapter 79 Concealment, Strange Coincidence
"Sheriff, we've made a new discovery."
A police robot with slightly modified feet that resembled a pair of boots walked over, interrupting the two people's conversation.
"Take Wario to the detention cell," Brand ordered the police robots beside him.
After everyone left, Brand looked at the special police robot: "Double Boots, let me see what clues you've found?"
Upon hearing this, Shuangxue handed over the data tablet he was holding.
Moore's face was on the screen.
"I discovered this from nearby surveillance footage. After comparing the images, I found a criminal with a special Imperial marker in the database whose characteristics perfectly matched this person's. The file is classified as secret by the Imperial Defense Bureau, and our order is to report it to the Empire immediately once the criminal is discovered."
Brand frowned, his gaze fixed on the face on the screen.
Janix is an autonomous planet, and if the Empire intervenes, it will definitely send a large number of troops to directly occupy the planet militarily.
He had already learned about what the Empire was doing in the outer star system from past caravans.
If the Empire were to control Janix, the harm it would cause would be many times more terrifying than that caused by a criminal.
These thoughts raced through Brand's mind, and he shook his head, replying, "No! It's not the time yet. Keep the news under wraps for now."
"This violates procedure."
The boots looked at the sheriff and continued, "But I will obey your orders."
Brand nodded in satisfaction, secretly relieved. The two boots he had worked with for many years had indeed not disappointed him.
"Keep a close eye on Wario, and increase security at the police station."
"Understood, Sheriff, but what exactly is this Shadow Group he mentioned?"
"I'll figure it out." Brand rubbed his forehead, his head aching, and a beautiful image flashed through his mind.
......
Time passed, night fell, and a torrential downpour began.
Lance and his group only had a chance to observe closely after the police robots left the scene.
In an instant, he sensed a dense dark force, his gaze swept over the traces of the battle around him, and his mind simultaneously simulated the battle scene at that time.
"It was a massacre with no suspense whatsoever; Moore's opponents had no chance to fight back at all."
Lance had never fought Moore, but he had heard of the evil deeds Moore had committed.
He killed Master Qui-Gon Jinn, was cut in half by Obi-Wan Kenobi but did not die, and reappeared after disappearing for many years, stronger than before.
"This is a troublesome Sith."
Lance sensed the lingering aura of the Force: anger, ambition, hatred...
"Boss, there were eight or nine intruders, and each one was formidable. Their timing was impeccable; the battle was over in just a few minutes."
Although most of the robot wreckage had been removed from the scene, the hunters still managed to glean a great deal of information from the clues.
This group of robbers was no ordinary group; they were highly professional.
Clearing King patted the explosive gun in his hand: "What's this? It's just children playing house."
Moore and his men had only robbed a banker's vault, while the Empire had just seized its spoils.
That's the wealth of several planets.
"We wouldn't do something like that." Lance slowly opened his eyes and looked at the security camera not far away. "If we don't leave now, we'll be in trouble."
The group quickly drove the rented airship away from the scene.
Of course, a fake identity was used.
"Boss, where do we go next?"
"Go..." Lance was about to speak when he keenly sensed a fierce battle taking place inside a building in the distance.
Someone actually dared to attack a police station. Are all the gangs on this planet this wild?
The next moment, he realized what was happening.
This style of doing things is very similar to Moore's gang—the same audacity and ruthlessness.
"But... what is Moore's purpose?"
Lance pointed to a building in the distance: "Go there, but don't get too close."
"Roger that, boss."
The hunter maneuvered the airship into a graceful drift in the air, bringing it to a steady stop on the rooftop of a nearby high-rise building.
boom!
A loud bang, mixed with thunder, reached their ears, and Lance quickly took out his binoculars to observe.
Several windows were shattered by the shockwave, and thick smoke, flames, and bursts of energy shot out.
"Boss, should we go help?"
"It's too late, the battle is almost over."
As Lance said, the noise inside the building gradually subsided and soon stopped completely.
"Find their vehicles and install tracking devices as soon as possible."
Lance wanted to track Moore down and find a suitable opportunity to make his move.
The hunter and the obstacle clearer immediately moved their binoculars to search and found two suspicious shuttles on a dark platform.
"Boss, we found it."
"You know what to do."
The hunter reached out and picked up the blaster hanging on his back, aimed at one of the shuttles, and pulled the trigger.
A tracker the size of a coin was fired from the muzzle and landed silently on top of the shuttle.
"Done!"
"Well done, hunter." Lance gave him a thumbs up.
......
A few minutes later, Moore and his group emerged from a nearby pipe opening and quickly drove away in their shuttle.
Two figures followed closely behind, watching the spaceship recede into the distance with resentment.
"We need a vehicle." Brand held a gun in one hand and a searchlight in the other, looking at the guard robot's boots.
"Wait a moment, Sheriff."
Seeing a garbage truck rising below, Shuangxue jumped down.
"Police are on duty; your car has been requisitioned."
......
Lance glanced at the pursuing police officers and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to get going."
Moore and his gang were determined to escape, so they rampaged through the streets, capsizing several moving landcraft.
The police were focused on catching the criminals, and patrol cars from nearby areas kept joining the pursuit.
Unbeknownst to them, a slightly old-fashioned airship was following them at a distance.
The hunter watched the fierce chase unfolding ahead and thought, "Moore and his gang are truly barbaric, completely disregarding the lives of ordinary people."
"Doing whatever they want, using any means to achieve their goals, that's Sith." Lance frowned slightly, suppressing the urge to attack.
Although he wanted to stop them, he knew it wasn't the right time to take action.
On the bridge, Master Dutch and Jedi apprentice Davin were watching the commotion below.
"Teacher, we..."
Dutch looked solemn, gripping his cane tightly, his heart filled with inner turmoil.
On one hand, the Jedi Creed tells him that Jedi are the guardians of peace, and he should stop these criminals.
On the other hand, reality constantly reminds him that the Jedi are no longer the peacekeepers in people's eyes, and exposing his identity will inevitably lead to the Empire's pursuit.
How should I choose?
......
Inside the shuttle.
Moore watched the police cars approaching from behind and knew he had to take action himself.
Looking up at the bridge ahead, my gaze was drawn to two figures.
His eyes narrowed, and his gaze finally settled on the girl from Tirek.
"A Jedi Master and his apprentice, what a wonderful coincidence. Is this the Force's reward for me?" A hint of joy flashed in Moore's eyes.
In an instant, a thought arose in his mind: kill the Jedi Master, control the Jedi Puppet, and bring the Dark Side into his fold as his disciple.
Moore immediately abandoned the idea of blowing up the bridge.
His revenge plan requires a master and an apprentice.
He is my master.
And he found another disciple.
