Star Wars: Escape from the Jedi Temple Begins

Chapter 84 Two Boots Save the Day, Escape from the Police Station

Police station.

"Sheriff Brand, you discovered an Imperial wanted criminal but failed to report it, committing the crime of harboring a criminal. Be prepared to face Imperial judgment." Lieutenant Blake pointed at Moore's portrait.

"Wait, this is a misunderstanding. I need to speak with the chief." Brand struggled to explain, but his arms were firmly held by two soldiers and he was unable to resist.

"Kress is no longer your chief, and that woman will receive the same punishment." Blake removed his badge and waved to the soldier, "Take him to the interrogation room."

Brand's heart skipped a beat.

He saw a chilling intent in Blake's eyes and knew that the other man had made up his mind to get rid of him, and no amount of explanation would help.

Brand didn't say a word, his gaze sweeping over the Imperial soldiers around him, a hint of despair flashing in his eyes.

There was absolutely no possibility of escape.

Finally, his gaze fell on the pair of boots not far away.

"I hope my old friend will consider our long-standing friendship and find a way to leave on his own."

Shuangxue stood at her workstation, completely bewildered as to why her friend was being interrogated.

One second it was marveling at the empire's efficient execution, dispatching a large number of troops to search for those arrogant criminals.

Unexpectedly, the Empire arrested Sheriff Brand first.

"Can anyone tell me what happened?" Shuangxue silently watched his friend Brand leave the office hall.

Not long after, Chief Klein was also taken to the interrogation room.

At this moment, even the slowest boots knew something serious had happened.

"What should I do?" It sat at its workstation, staring at the electronic screen in deep thought. "I need to go find Lieutenant Blake and explain the situation to him, and get him to release the sheriff and the chief. The Empire is just and upright; they will surely understand."

He stood up in his boots and went to the director's office.

"Guard robot, what are you doing here?" The guard at the entrance stopped it.

"It's about Brand and Chief Clyde; there must be some misunderstanding." As a robot, lying is not in Double Boots' nature.

"Get lost, this is none of your business." The soldier shoved it away.

Before Shuangxue could argue any further, the soldier had already raised his gun.

"Fine, I'll leave now." Shuangxue sighed and sat back down at his workstation, muttering under his breath, "These Imperial soldiers are so rude..."

It pretended to be busy, but its eyes kept glancing towards the door of the director's office.

A few minutes later, one of the soldiers seemed to receive an order and walked toward the interrogation room.

Shuangxue casually picked up a document and quietly followed.

"The lieutenant has already issued the execution order; it will be carried out immediately once the interrogation is over."

It hid around the corner and overheard the conversation between the two soldiers waiting at the interrogation room door.

"Execution?!"

The dual-boot system's operating program crashed.

According to normal procedures, criminals should first go to court for legal trial, and then be executed according to the trial results.

Lieutenant Blake skipped this process entirely, which violated legal procedures.

Moreover... the sheriff and the chief of police have committed no crime, yet the Empire wants to kill them.

The two boots witnessed the Empire's violence and bloodshed firsthand when they first faced it.

It realized that the empire portrayed in propaganda was fake.

"No, I have to save them."

Over the years, their friendship has transcended that of colleagues; they are friends, companions, and family.

He walked slowly out from around the corner, carrying documents in his boots.

The two soldiers quickly noticed and immediately became alert.

"Guard robot, stop immediately, or we'll open fire."

Most of these clone soldiers developed a dislike for robots due to the war.

Whether they are evil separatist robots or ordinary maintenance robots, they all hate them equally.

"Don't be nervous, soldiers. The lieutenant asked me to give you this document."

When necessary, boots can lie, and often with surprising results.

Because according to the three fundamental principles of robotics, robots cannot lie.

Upon hearing this, the two soldiers immediately lowered their guns: "Give it to me."

He stepped forward in two boots and handed over the documents.

Just as a soldier reached out to take it.

Suddenly, the boots shot up, slamming their iron fists into their helmets.

hum.

The two men groaned and collapsed to the ground.

After dealing with the guards at the door, he knocked on the interrogation room door with his boots.

A few moments later, several more muffled groans were heard from inside the interrogation room.

"Double Boots, thank you. I knew you were reliable." Brand cracked his knuckles, picked up the soldier's sidearm, and said, "And Director Clyde, we need to speed things up; the Empire will soon discover the anomaly."

The two locked the unconscious soldier in the interrogation room and then rescued Kress.

"I knew it, nothing good ever comes from the Empire." Klein had heard about the Empire's ways, but he never expected it would happen to him.

She struggled for many years to climb to the position of bureau chief, only to be stripped of her power and nearly lose her life. She harbored deep resentment towards the empire.

"We can talk about the rest later. We need to get out of here alive first," Brand advised.

"This building is full of Imperial soldiers, how do we get out?"

Shuangxie raised a finger and made a crude and very bold suggestion: "I can take you out."

Brand and Klein turned to stare at it.

So, the two men, their hands cuffed behind their backs and held down by their boots, swaggered downstairs.

We encountered several patrolling soldiers along the way, but no one questioned or stopped us.

The three were extremely nervous, but they could only pretend to be calm, and they made their way to the back entrance of the police station without any obstacles.

Just as I was about to step out of the building, a piercing police siren suddenly blared in my ears.

"Oh no, we've been discovered."

The three men, no longer caring about their disguise, hurriedly started a police car.

Not far from the police station, fighter jets patrolling nearby arrived.

......

Boom!

As Lance and his group were discussing their strategy, a police car flew overhead, followed by several fighter jets strafing them.

The police car dodged several shots, but was eventually hit in the tail thruster by an energy beam, plummeting towards the platform below with a plume of black smoke and flames.

"What's going on? Who are the people being chased by the Empire, and why are they driving police cars?" Everyone was completely baffled.

King Qingzhang scratched his head: "Besides Moore and us, who else in the Empire is their target?"

"Master Dutch, what do you think?" Lance couldn't sense Moore's presence from the police car.

Master Dutch stroked his chin: "The person in the police car just now was probably Sheriff Brand. Although I don't know why the Empire is hunting him, he's very valuable to us and has always been dedicated to maintaining peace in Janix City. He's a kind-hearted man. I think it's necessary to risk rescuing him; perhaps it can help us get out of here."

Lance looked down at the platform.

Three figures emerged from the crashed police car and ran scrambling into a nearby building.

Imperial soldiers are rapidly surrounding them.

"Master Dutch, Deven, leave the battle to us. Try not to use lightsabers; I don't want the Empire to know there's a Jedi here yet."
