Chapter 729 Life hangs on a thread

As the saying goes, the first ninety-nine bows were made, and without the last shiver, Jack simply contacted Frank Regan directly and organized a big battle.

ESU sent two additional teams of SWAT and two "Panda" armored vehicles, one to clear the way and the other to hold down the formation, to escort a team of SWAT to escort Vargas to the federal building.

Hearing that the attacker who attacked the police officer was shot dead by Jack himself, Frank Laohuai was relieved and carefully asked him who stayed at the scene to pay attention to his safety before hanging up the phone.

The night vision device previously showed four infrared heat source responses, indicating that there were at least four people in the warehouse area, but now only two were confirmed. Jack planned to stay at the scene with Hannah to continue the search, and let Aubrey drive the car himself to escort them.

The beautiful job of escorting an important suspect to appear in front of his female boss is naturally assigned to his newcomer. Aubrey performed admirably in the previous kidnapping case of an anesthesiologist. He has a flexible mind and quick reactions. When we usually train together, his marksmanship and skills are very good. Not bad either.

As for a certain suspect being sent to the second dimension by "Optimus Prime" under his and Hannah's eyes, it was purely unlucky. Even if it were Jack, it wouldn't change anything. He couldn't run away and draw a gun every time he saw the suspect. Just shoot someone in the leg to prevent them from jaywalking.

With such a high-profile escort lineup, the chance of something going wrong was almost zero. Jack had just confirmed Vargas's appearance again and again. He was not a familiar face, so it shouldn't cause any big scenes.

If I have to say it hard, at first glance, this guy's appearance is somewhat similar to the protagonist in the British TV series "Poirot" which was filmed for 70 episodes in 24 years, and he also has to add those two strange mustaches. After shaving his beard and replacing it with gray beard, his temperament is completely different.

After watching the long motorcade leave, Jack and Hannah returned to the office where Vargas had been arrested. A team of SWAT members were staying here to clean up the scene, mainly collecting the account books, which were important evidence.

Whether it is the District Attorney or the DEA, I am afraid they will salivate over these account books. It is true that the Durange drug cartel under Vargas (this drug cartel is fictional) is more powerful than the Doza that Jack and the Seals dealt with in Mexico. Not as good as that, but it is still one of the top drug lords in Bolivia.

Although cocaine and its final product, methane, were once the most important drug drugs in Latin America, they are now being defeated by various synthetic drug drugs. However, they are located in the "Silver Triangle" area with the highest concentration of drug production in Latin America. In Bolivia, more than one-tenth of the country's working population is still related to the production and trade of coca leaves.

Coca leaves are the raw material of cocaine. In other words, excluding the elderly and children, one in every ten people in this country is a drug grower, and one in every hundred people is a drug dealer.

Several SWAT team members happily carried several large boxes of information and went out. Jack and Hannah led the others to continue the search and updated their locations in real time. The ESU special police officers affiliated with the NYPD on the other side were already waiting impatiently.

ESU originally wanted to avenge its colleagues, but seeing that the FBI had already accomplished its first crime, it was naturally a little impatient.

The entire warehouse area was divided into five districts, from 1 to 5. The FBI divided the two outer districts and one district adjacent to the inner circle to the NYPD.

Among them, the outer areas 4 and 5 have begun to break in. ESU has successively discovered some packaged or disguised drugs. It is conservatively estimated that there are less than half a ton. The team waiting outside area 3 is also a little impatient. No. Stop asking for instructions to take action.

"Let them guard the door until our team completes the search mission before letting them in." Jack glanced at the floor plan shown to him by a SWAT team member carrying a tactical tablet, and then ordered.

The closest distance between Area 3 and the area they were responsible for was less than 15 meters, separated by only a small warehouse. There were still two suspects whose whereabouts were unknown. He didn't want anything to go wrong at this last juncture.

"Keep the communication channel open. Everyone should be more vigilant and pay attention to their steps. There is intelligence that the other party likes to use IEDs. We have plenty of time. The two who escaped are just small characters. The big fish has been caught. Prioritize our own safety."

Jack worriedly gave another warning in the team channel. The two SWAT members were still leading the charge. He and Hannah followed behind and continued to clean house by house.

"Safety!"

"Safety!"

After entering the last warehouse and walking around a row of shelves, the scene in front of them made everyone hold their breath. Hannah couldn't help but pull up the night vision goggles, turn on the tactical flashlight and look around before exclaiming. , "We hit the jackpot!"

Others also turned off their night vision devices, turned on their flashlights and looked around, with smiles on their faces.

In front of them were five or six large wooden boxes neatly arranged. Each wooden box was filled with brick-sized packages of poison tightly wrapped in blue plastic film. They found the place where they could re-dilute and package the poison. of the work shop.

Hannah couldn't wait to take out the test kit for on-site testing. This plate-shaped portable drug test kit is like a full-page pregnancy test stick spliced ​​together. Each test port corresponds to a common drug.

Simply dilute the white powder with water and drop it into the inspection port one by one. Where two bars appear, it indicates which poison it corresponds to.

"Cocaine, very pure." Hannah had two sweet dimples on her face, which meant that even if Vargas shut up and said nothing, he would never leave federal prison in his life.

Jack simply estimated that the weight of the semi-finished cocaine with extremely high purity would not be less than two tons. Together with the finished products just found by ESU, it would be a rare major case even in the whole country.

But the things on the other table made people feel a little uneasy. Boxes of red packaging had big danger words written on them, and the explosives and detonators were piled up like a big box of chocolate.

"Aha, don't move. C4 and electric detonators were found here. Jubal, notify the bomb disposal team to prepare." Jack called the operations center directly.

"Others stay where you are and prepare to evacuate in an orderly manner. The C4 equivalent here is enough to take us all to the sky."

"The wooden planks here have been moved by someone. There may be a secret passage behind!" A team member's eyes lit up and he wanted to step forward immediately.

"Hey, don't move! Didn't you hear the order?" Hannah pulled his tactical vest and pulled him back.

"Fuck, don't move. There is a trap here." The action of this team member made Jack feel his heart tremble, and the hair on his body stood up like a cat with its hair blown up.

He carefully turned off the tactical flashlight, pulled down the night vision goggles and turned them on again. He saw a dark red infrared laser shooting out from behind a wooden board leaning against the corner of the wall, just blocking the entrance to the so-called secret passage. He couldn't help but feel lucky.

Others also realized that something was wrong, and turned off their tactical flashlights and turned on the night vision goggles like him. They all broke out in a cold sweat. The reckless team member was even scared to the point of weakness.

If Hannah hadn't grabbed this guy out of absolute trust in Jack's orders, everyone here would have had to take a plane.

"Jack, what should we do next?" Hannah's voice trembled slightly.

"Turn around, we'll retreat first." Jack immediately switched to the general channel and shouted, "Retreat! Retreat! Retreat! Everyone evacuate in an orderly manner. An IED device using an infrared laser tripwire was found at the scene.

Jubal, two suspects escaped. There is a large amount of C4 at the scene. Immediately notify all teams to evacuate! Now! Immediately!"

"Received! Call for bomb disposal team reinforcements. All teams evacuate, keep a safe distance, maintain the status quo and wait for more bomb disposal teams to arrive!"

The public channel was suddenly filled with replies from various teams, but one of the replies with an electric sound was extremely abrupt, "Collect and prepare for action!"

Jack had just led Hannah and their group of SWAT team members to leave the warehouse area and retreat to an open area. He turned back in shock when he heard this reply. Then he heard a loud bang, and a heat wave came not far away, accompanied by all kinds of messy debris.
