Chapter 34: Pursuit, and Lasso
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The FBI agents still remained vigilant and only lowered their guns when they saw Luke slowly walk out of the alley.
Luke yelled again, “I’ll chase after the escapee. You guys can deal with this place. It’s best if you wrap it up quickly, though. There’s an intense shootout going on at Selina’s house.”
The FBI agents were rendered speechless as they thought, “Are you telling us what to do now?”
But none of them said anything.
They all clearly saw what happened earlier.
When the shotgun fire rang out earlier, all the remaining gunmen had been killed off with a shot each.
They had been working together for so many days, but this was the first time they realized that this normally friendly-looking young man was actually so vicious.
Luke left in pursuit, and when he passed by the garbage truck, he drew his Glock.
Bang! He aimed the Glock at the head of the person hanging from the driver’s seat before pulling the trigger.
“Selina, gather the FBI fellows and take them with you to your place as backup,” Luke said before rushing away.
The FBI agents only just arrived at that moment. With their guns raised, they slowly approached the alley.
When they managed to get a clear look at the situation there, they all gasped and looked at each other silently.
What Luke did was beyond vicious; he was savage, even executing the injured combatants.
Selina came over as well. “Is everything alright? They’re all dead. My car’s ruined. Can you guys send me home? I keep hearing gunshots, and only two of my colleagues were posted there.”
The reason why Luke said what he did to Selina was that he was afraid she would foolishly rush over alone.
As for the FBI agents, they would be able to remain cool-headed since it wasn’t their house that was under attack.
The four discussed it for a bit before sending one person to drive Selina over.
The scene was a mess, with so many people dead as well as a bunch of weapons lying around. They couldn’t leave everything as it was and move on.

The person who would drive Selina home would take no more than ten minutes to come back to the scene anyway.
Meanwhile, they could ask Chris for further instructions.
When Chris heard what happened, he blanked out for a bit before saying, “Ignore the bodies. Get over here too, but there’s no rush; push on to Selina’s house so we can finish off the remaining gunmen.”
Chris hadn’t expected that they would be facing so many attackers this time.
Ten of them had appeared on Luke’s side, and there were even more people at Selina’s house, with 20 attackers appearing there. It was clear that they had planned to execute her entire family.
And from what Robert told him, 20 people had gone over to Robert’s house as well. They got into a gunfight with Robert, two other police officers, and two FBI agents.
With them working together, Robert didn’t fear the attackers’ superior numbers.
He was somehow firing the M4A1 in his hand as if it was a sniper rifle instead of an automatic rifle. He would stay silent for a long while without firing a single bullet, and the moment he opened fire, someone would go down.
In less than five minutes, six attackers had been taken down, all hit by Robert.
At that point, the gunmen didn’t even dare flee anymore.
After all, the first to run would also attract a bullet from Robert.
On the other hand, an intense gunfight was still happening at Selina’s house.
The majority of the police force and ten FBI agents were involved in an intense shootout with the gunmen there, with neither party winning a clear advantage yet.
This was the plan Robert and Chris had come up with. Robert only needed four people with him. As for Luke’s side, a squad with great teamwork had been sent over, and their combat prowess was in fact even higher than perhaps eight or nine of the local police officers combined.
Therefore, most of the remaining reinforcements were now focused on Selina’s house.
It wasn’t that the officers and agents posted there were terrible, but the situation at Selina’s house was simply too chaotic. There were too many objects littered around the house, with random piles here and there. Farming tools, dilapidated furniture, and old electrical appliances were also strewn everywhere, turning the area into some sort of maze.

Thus, both sides remained cautious and neither dared to advance rashly. The only thing they did was to shoot at each other from a distance.
Of course, the police and the FBI were in no rush anyway.
Time was on their side after all.
Chris, who was the overall commander of the operation, had already informed everyone that only one criminal had escaped from Luke’s side, and the people there were currently rushing over as backup. As for Robert’s side, he would be able to clean up his opponents in about half an hour. At that time, they would be able to come and help too.
Because of that, these 20 gunmen wouldn’t be able to last longer than half an hour.
In fact, this was already a conservative estimate since some of these gunmen were armed with grenades.
Chris didn’t want to push them too hard, to the point that they started tossing grenades into civilian homes. If some random civilians ended up killed, the credit he stood to earn from this operation would be greatly reduced.
As Chris’s party advanced slowly and steadily, Luke had already caught up to the escaped commander.
Although that person was fleeing, he still held on tightly to his weapon.
Luke was wary of the might of an AK. Thus, he didn’t dare charge straight at his target.
When he saw his target enter a small alley, he was overjoyed to realize that his target wasn’t too familiar with this area.
Without any hesitation, Luke slung his shotgun over his back before jumping over the wall beside him.
He jumped into a front yard and was welcomed by two dogs that lifted their heads vigilantly. He quickly said to them, “Harry, Betty, stay.”
The two dogs woofed lightly at him before lying down on the ground again.
The owner of this house was David, and he was rather friendly with Luke’s family. Luke used to visit this place a lot as a kid, and he was very familiar with the two dogs.
This also showed how well he knew the surrounding area.
His target had entered a L-shaped alley, and Luke only needed to go through this yard to intercept that person at the other end of the alley.
If that person didn’t randomly decide to climb over a wall, he would definitely appear at the other end.
Luke quickly ran across the yard toward the alley’s exit.
When he arrived, he didn’t hear any footsteps. His target was indeed slower than he was.
Luke was about to raise his gun when he saw a rope coiled around a random pole near the mouth of the alley.
The pole was in fact a horse post, and the rope was probably something which David had left there.
A new idea surfaced in Luke’s mind as he ran over. He folded the rope in two and wrapped it around the post before dragging the other end back to where he was standing.
There were no street lamps here, so this alley was very dark.
Luke sneered inwardly as he walked two meters away from the post to the other side of the alley opening.
In the dark, he kept the folded rope at chest level.
Soon, hasty footsteps rang out from the alley. His target was moving at a moderate speed.
Luke listened carefully and found that his target wasn’t slowing down at all. Soon, his target arrived at the exit.
And then, Luke felt a massive force on the rope.
Next, a figure could be seen hanging in the air.
This person was about ten centimeters shorter than Luke, so his neck was level with Luke’s chest. He had crashed right into the rope by the neck as his body jerked forward slightly at the momentum, making it look as if he had been left hanging.
When Luke released the rope, the person was already falling on his back since the lower half of his body was still moving forward. With a thud, he crashed to the ground.

I am currently studying my degree at a University so I'll continue to edit and write more chapter whenever it's convenient for me to do so (which is like, all the times haha). My first work can turn out to be a bit crude, but I hope you guys will be patient and allow little small slime to grow. Thanks!!!
