Ke-style law enforcement officers

Chapter 330 The old place

On the street corner, old Theon and Milo crouched in a secluded alley, spying on the scene at the entrance of the law enforcement headquarters.

Old Theon muttered to Milo, "You think this will work?"

"It is indeed missing something, isn't it? But I estimate it will arrive soon."

Milo nodded, stood up, and glanced at the other end of the street.

As expected, newspapers and media outlets flocked to the scene.

The scene was very chaotic.

Michael was yelling that the hunters had killed his entire family and that he knew where they were hiding, pleading with law enforcement to send officers to apprehend them immediately.

Such words were recorded verbatim by newspapers and media outlets.

Headquarters finally reacted, sending law enforcement officers to quickly pull Michael inside and begin dispersing the crowd that had gathered nearby.

……

"If that's the case, it'll probably work."

Old Theon, who had witnessed the whole thing, nodded thoughtfully. He flicked his cigarette butt into a puddle on the ground and then asked, "But how could he possibly know the hunter's whereabouts?"

“I told him.” Milo put his hands in his pockets and grinned mysteriously.

"Then how did you know?" Old Theon felt a little confused. He and Milo had followed the clues about the York family the whole time, but now he felt like he had missed some part of the process.

“I guessed.” Milo gave a clearly dismissive answer.

Fortunately, old Theon himself didn't care much about this matter. He was used to people like Max Johnson and knew their style. From the beginning, he didn't expect these people to do anything good for Nanwei City.

In fact, in old Theon's mind, only after these old men were safely sent away could their law enforcement system properly begin to investigate and solve cases.

"Whatever you want, just don't let things get out of hand."

Old Theon waved his hand and lit another cigarette.

……

...

It must be said that Ms. Castor's betrayal was indeed of great significance.

Perhaps she simply wanted to do Milo a favor, or perhaps she simply wanted to annoy the county councilor.

But in any case, the results were achieved.

If Michael was secretly apprehended by the patrol team, and he doesn't currently have the true information Milo provided to him, then he will most likely only become a scapegoat.

But now it's different.

He was dragged into law enforcement headquarters in broad daylight, wailing in pain, as evidenced by newspapers and the media.

He also said that he knew the hunters' hiding place.

In this way, everything fell into place naturally.

The people of Nanwei City will begin to wait for the inspection team's next move. Representatives from the York family at the county government are putting pressure on them, and even the local nobles of Nanwei City are waiting for Max's decision.

In fact, at this point, Max had no other choice.

……

He was right about one thing: Milo was a visionary.

Thanks to Milo's series of minor interventions, all the major powers are now keeping an eye on the patrol team, forcing Max to take concrete action against the hunter organizations.

If necessary, Milo could even speak to Derashaw and ask the church to put pressure on them, since this was a situation the church, or rather, Derashaw, would like to see.

Now Milo can finally take a real vacation.

He's figured out the game that old Theon was talking about.

The patrol team wasn't in Nanwei City to solve a case; they were there to do business.

All Milo could do was force them to solve the case. After all, the county councilor had made a lot of promises and slogans that were still echoing within the walls of Nanwei. Although the people would eventually forget, they wouldn't forget what the county councilor had said the day before yesterday so quickly.

……

Ultimately, under intense scrutiny, law enforcement headquarters dispatched a team to carry out the operation.

They had no idea that the most crucial intelligence came from a frontline law enforcement officer who had been suspended from duty and was under investigation.

Milo located the hunter's position by identifying the hybrid.

From the hybrid's perspective, although he couldn't clearly obtain the actual information, such as images or sounds, he could accurately sense the other person's psychological and emotional fluctuations.

Milo was certain that the hybrids had already joined forces with the Hunter Organization.

Two nights and three days have passed, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, they have already selected the next batch of targets for assassination, and may even have already made personnel deployments and arrangements.

They are currently located in the mountains and forests on the eastern outskirts of Nanwei City.

Ironically, the hunters chose to land at the same spot where Milo and Rebecca first encountered the undead a long time ago.

Do you remember Daisy, who was kidnapped by a strange man? Do you remember that patient shelter piled up with countless rotting, desiccated corpses?
That's right, it's right there, deep in that valley hidden by countless plants.

If it were any other place in the suburban jungle, Milo would probably have to make a trip there himself to pinpoint the exact location, but he had a very clear memory of the road leading to the patient shelter.

I just don't know why Monqueya had to choose such an unlucky place.

……

In conclusion, the inspection team ultimately decided to take action.

Thirty minutes after Michael was dragged into law enforcement headquarters, the patrol team began to secretly dispatch personnel to leave Nanwei City in batches and surround the patient shelter in the eastern mountains from different directions.

Milo didn't know what the patrol team and law enforcement officials had discussed during those thirty minutes, but if nothing unexpected happened, they weighed the pros and cons from all angles and ultimately chose to take armed action.

I reckon a large part of that confidence comes from that army lieutenant colonel and the elite troops he leads.

During their first meeting, Milo noticed the arrogance written on the faces of these men. It was clear that these guys looked down on the quality, equipment, and capabilities of the lower-level law enforcement officers, just as the lieutenant colonel had said—there was no need for a task force at all.

Their attitude was very firm and clear.

……

But Milo doesn't think highly of these people.

They are the army, that's true, but the interior hasn't seen a war for many years, a fact that even a three-year-old could count on their fingers.

And what about the colonies?
They're probably still fighting right now.

……

As if to set off the hunt, a thunderstorm began outside the law enforcement office the moment Milo stepped inside.

Thick, blinding arcs of electricity flashed continuously high in the sky, while enormous raindrops rained down on Nanwei City as if they were free.

Milo sat on the windowsill, quietly waiting for news from the outskirts of the city.
