Chapter 20 19

are you all right?Sachs was dumbfounded for a moment.Don't you wait, what the hell is going on here? fine?Of course, I'm very nice. Seeing Sachs' surprised face, Kara said: So you don't know? The bald cop said to Sachs: I wanted to tell you, but you ran away without giving me a chance. tell me? ．Sachs couldn't go on anymore, she was so shocked and filled with relief She was speechless for a while. Do you think I'm really hurt?Carla said: Oh my God. Bell came over and nodded to Kara.Carla told him: She didn't know. what do you know? Our plan, pretend I'm assassinated.

The expression on Bell's face was also surprised at this time.God, do you think she was really killed? The bald patrolman reported to Bell: I want to tell her the truth.But I couldn't find her at first, and when I found her, she told me to cordon off the scene and call medical personnel, and then she ran away. Carla explained: Didn't Rona and I agree?We think that the next step for the sorcerer may be to intentionally hurt people, perhaps setting fire, shooting or stabbing people with knives.You also know that he will use misleading tactics to get away with it.That being the case, so we simply make it ourselves.

It was to get the kid out of the jungle, Bell went on: She took a bit of ketchup from a food stand, smeared herself, and screamed. Carla lifted her blue jacket to reveal the red marks on the purple vest. Bell continued.We were concerned that this might spook some people at the trade show That's it, I thought But we also considered that it would be better to do that rather than having someone actually get hurt by the hexer.Bell added another sentence full of approval.Don't cover you, this is all her idea. I have a feeling that I know what's on his mind.Carla said. God, Sachs found himself still unable to stop shaking.It's so realistic.

Bell nodded.Her acting skills are beyond words. Sachs hugged Carla, and then said seriously: But, from now on, you must follow me closely, at least where I can see you.I'm still young and don't want to be scared of having a heart attack too early. They waited for a while, and there was no report that anyone had spotted the suspect.In the end, Bell had to say: Emilia, you go to investigate the scene here, and I will interrogate the victim just now to see if I can ask what happened.We'll meet at the trade show later.A crime scene forensic van was parked on Eighty-eighth Street.Sachs walked to the car, took the equipment and tools, and began to conduct site inspections in the alley.At this time, the radio hanging around her waist suddenly crackled, which startled her.She hastily unplugged the speakerphone from her belt and plugged it into the radio.Number 5885 replied, over.

Sachs, what the hell is going on with you?I heard you caught him, but let him go? She told Rhyme what had happened, how they had driven the sorcerer out of the trade fair just now. Kara's idea?Playing dead on purpose?Hmm, this sentence was actually just a hum in the end, but to Lincoln.For Rhyme, this represented the highest compliment. But then he disappeared again, Sachs said, and so did the officer who arrested him.Perhaps he pursued it again, but no one knows the details.Rona is interrogating the woman who was rescued just now to see if she has any clues. Alright, then go and inspect the scene, Sachs.

Not this scene, but these few, Sachs corrected him morosely.Cafes, ponds, and this alley, there are too many scenes. Not too much, Rhyme replied, but we've tripled our chances of finding useful evidence. Rhyme was right. A large amount of evidence was indeed collected from these three scenes. Dealing with these scenes is quite taxing for Sachs, because the sorcerer is present in each of them.She felt as if he was still hovering around here, and she often had to stop nervously, put her hand on the grip of the Garrak, and look back to make sure the killer didn't suddenly appear behind her.

Search carefully, but also watch your back. She didn't see anyone.However, at that time Svetlana.Lasnikov also hid under the black curtain without seeing the killer, unaware that he had crept up behind her from the shadows. Tony.When Calvert walked towards the toy cat, he didn't see the killer hiding behind the mirror in the alley. Moreover, even Qiao Li.Nor did Marston see the sorcerer's true face, even though she had come face to face with him.What she saw was another person completely, and she was completely unaware of the horrible plan hidden in this person's heart. Sachs walked through these various locations, taking pictures with a digital camera, collecting fingerprints and footprints at the scene.After the inspection, she returned to the trade fair and met with Rona.Bell joins.Rona has been to the hospital to interrogate Qiao Li who is lying on the hospital bed.Marston, but they couldn't believe anything the suspect had said to her (a bunch of lies, Marston said sadly).But Marston did describe the gangster's appearance, including some obvious scar details.She also recalled that they had walked up to a car first, and she remembered the make of the car and the first few numbers of the license plate.This is really great news.Given enough information, there are at least a hundred ways to track a suspect or witness vehicle.Lincoln.Rhyme also had a nickname for something like a car, the Evidence Generator.

The Automobile Supervision Station reported a vehicle that matched the victim's description, a 2001 tawny Mazda 626 that was stolen at White Plains airport a week earlier.Sellitto issued an urgent notice to law enforcement officers in the metro area, asking all of them to help find the car; he also sent officers to patrol the neighborhood of the victim's attack to see if they could find it. Find the car, although no one believes that the gangster's car will stay put. Bell described Qiao Li to everyone.Marston's agony, and just as he was about to finish his sentence, a patrolman with a radio interrupted him.

Detective Bell?Can you tell me what that car looks like again?The one the suspect drove away? Brown Mazda, model 626.The license plate number is FET237. This is it!The patrolman spoke over the radio immediately.Then he said to Bell and Sachs: I just got a report that a patrol car found this car on Central Park West.They tried to give chase, but I heard from them that the suspect drove over the island and into the park.The patrol car tried to follow, but got stuck on the safety island. Where on Central Park West?Sachs asked. Near Ninety-second Street. Possibly abandoned the car and fled.Bell said.

He'll abandon the car, Sachs said, but he'll drive the car some distance first.She glanced at the crates containing the evidence.Send it all to Rhyme.Within ten seconds of saying this, Sachs got into her Camaro sports car and started the car's big engine.She quickly pulled on the racing seat belt and snapped the buckle on. Emilia, wait!Bell yelled: The emergency response team has arrived. But the squeaking of Goodyear tires and a puff of blue smoke behind the car were her only responses to Bell's words. Speeding on Central Park West, Sachs headed north.She was on the steering wheel, concentrating on dodging pedestrians, turtle-like cars, cyclists, and inline-wheelers.

And strollers.They are everywhere.God, why don't these kids go home and take a nap? She dropped the blue warning light on the dash and plugged the power connector into the cigarette lighter.The bright blue light began to spin, and as she continued to accelerate forward, she found that the rhythm of her horn just matched the speed of the blue light. A gray shadow suddenly appeared in front of her. Damn, she slammed on the brakes immediately, and the Karoma sports car just missed hitting the luxury sedan in front that suddenly tried to turn around and was worth twice her annual income.She dodged the car and continued to press the gas pedal, and the engine responded with a rumble and roar.She controlled the speed of the car and kept the pointer of the speedometer below 80 kilometers per hour. She didn't put the accelerator pedal to the bottom until after Nintieth Street, when the traffic conditions improved slightly. In a few seconds, the speed increased to 110 kilometers. The Motorola radio she'd dropped on the front passenger seat now rattled through the earphones.She grabbed the earphones with one hand and put them on her ears. Hello?She answered directly, completely omitting the calling method and code that police radios must use. Emilia?I'm Rona.Bell said he, too, did not use standard communication protocols. Please say. We found that car again. Where is he?she asked aloud, over the roar of the engine. After waiting, he drove out of the park to Central Park North Road, collided with a truck, and continued to flee. where to escape? This is what happened less than a minute ago.Now he is heading north. knew. Heading north to Harlem?Sachs thought.There were many roads out of Harlem, but she didn't think he would take those roads, because there were bridges on them, and most of them had to be driven on elevated roads, which were easily stopped by the police. Most likely, he'll find a deserted place nearby to ditch the car and go steal or snatch a new one. Another voice came from her earphones.Sachs, we found him! Where?Lyme? The mob had turned west on 125th Street, Rhyme said, not far from Fifth Avenue. I'm almost at 125th and Adam Powell, and I'll try to stop him, but the backup police have to be here soon. They are on their way.Sachs, how fast were you going? I don't have time to look at the speedometer. That's the best way, you'd better pay attention to the traffic on the road. She honked her horn all the way to the busy intersection of 125th Streets and swerved, blocking the westbound two-lane lane.She jumped out of the car and pulled out the Garak.At this time, several cars were parked in the eastbound lane, and Sachs shouted to the driver in the car: Get out of the car!This is a police operation, everyone get out of the car and take cover.The driver, a courier, and a woman in a McDonald's uniform immediately did as she was told. As a result, the two-way lanes of 1st, 25th and 5th streets were blocked. Everyone, she yelled: Go hide!hurry up! Yo! So cool. She turned to the right to find four punks leaning against a chain-link fence.They were looking at the Austrian pistol in her hand, the Detroit sports car in the middle of the road, and the red-haired policewoman with great interest. Most of the pedestrians on the street had already found a place to take shelter, only these four people remained where they were, looking idle and idle.Why hide?Wesley.It wasn't often that the movies starring Wesley Snipe came to the place where they lived. Not far ahead, Sachs saw the Mazda, frantically heading west toward her makeshift roadblock.The sorcerer didn't realize that there was a roadblock in front of him, and when he realized it, he couldn't turn around to avoid it.He stepped on the brake pedal hard, causing a garbage truck in the rear to follow the emergency brake and tilt its body.When the driver and cleaning team on the garbage truck saw the situation ahead, they opened the door and jumped out of the car to escape, leaving the truck to block the magician's retreat. Sachs glanced at the teenagers again.Get down!she yelled. They still ignored her, with disdainful expressions on their faces. She shrugged, leaned against the hood of the Camaro, and aimed the pistol at the windshield of the Mazda. Finally, she faced the sorcerer again.She saw his face, saw his blue Harley T-shirt; she saw his fake braids twitching back and forth under his black baseball cap, saw him looking left and right to see if there was another alleyway nearby to escape.But there's nowhere to go anywhere near here. Hello!The people in the Mazda!Get out of the car and lie on the ground immediately! no answer. Sachs?Rhyme's voice suddenly came out of the earphones.can you She immediately unplugged the earphones, aligned the sight more accurately, and aimed directly at the murderer's head in the car. □□□ Since you have a gun, use it well □□□ Mary.The words that Detective Sangli said jumped into her mind at this moment.Sachs took a deep breath, calmed down, Then, holding the pistol firmly, it moved slightly up, then to the left, to correct for the effects of Earth's gravity and April breezes on the ballistics. When you shoot, nothing should exist but you and the target.There is an invisible cable between you and the target, which has kinetic energy like a light source.Whether you can hit the target depends entirely on the source of this kinetic energy.If the kinetic energy comes from your brain, you may be able to hit the target you aim at, but if the kinetic energy comes from your heart, then you can't make any mistakes.At this time, the kinetic energy of Sachs comes from the latter.The shadows of those victims who were injured by the sorcerer appeared in her mind, Tony.Calvert, Svetlana.Lasnikov, Joely.Marston and Larry.Patrol Buck.She knew that she would never miss this shot. Come on, she thought, you son of a bitch.Bring your car over, drive over and try it out! Come here! give me a reason to shoot The car moved forward a bit.Her right index finger immediately slipped into the trigger guard. The sorcerer stepped on the brakes immediately as if he noticed her movement. Coming over she found herself muttering to herself. She pondered how to deal with the situation at hand.If he's just trying to drive past her, she should shoot the radiator fan and tires so she can get him alive, but if he runs right into her or runs into the pavement, potentially hurting someone else, she should You can shoot him directly. Yo!One of the teenagers on the side of the road yelled. Shoot that bastard! Punch his shit out, bitch! You don't need to teach me, kid.I'm ready, willing to shoot, and able She made up her mind that as long as the magician drove forward three meters, no matter what speed she was driving, she would shoot.The car's engine revved, and she saw (or imagined) that the car, the color of the OK, began to shake. Three meters.I only need so much. The car engine roared again.come over!She begged silently. At this moment, Sachs saw a slowly moving yellow shadow approaching from behind the Mazda. It was a school bus of the Prophet of Zion Tabernacle Church full of children. The school bus driver was completely unaware of what was happening ahead. He drove the car onto the road from the side of the road and drove towards this side, and then made an emergency stop on the Mazda. and garbage trucks. Oops Even if you shoot directly at the Mazda now, the bullet might pass through the target and end up in the school bus. She took her finger off the trigger, and the muzzle of the gun was raised slightly to a safe angle.Through the windshield of the Mazda, she saw the sorcerer looking up and to the right, knowing that he had also seen the school bus behind her in the rearview mirror. Then he shifted his gaze back straight ahead, to stare directly at her.Sachs had a feeling he seemed to be smiling because he judged she couldn't shoot now. The tires of the Mazda made a sharp grinding sound. He stepped on the gas pedal to the bottom and accelerated towards Sachs at speeds of thirty, sixty, and eighty kilometers per hour. Under the sacred protection of this church school bus, The sorcerer rushed straight at the policewoman and her Camaro, which was brighter yellow than the school bus.
