Chapter 294: Flying Eagle Gun Shop
The searchlight of the Black Hawk helicopter shone from the balcony and roof of the motel, exposing the Tad members hiding in the corners. Jimmy and the police immediately opened fire on them, and many guests hid in the corners of the room and trembled.
Rifles and projectiles played a symphony of gunpowder in the motel. From the time the two sides came into contact to the end of the fight, a few minutes passed quickly.
Jimmy asked Boktu through the police channel whether there were any surviving criminals. Boktu looked down from above and immediately replied: "No more criminals were found, but they must be hiding in the room, and they may even be trying to take hostages."
Jimmy immediately picked up the loudspeaker and shouted at the inside: "Listen, you bastards in there, surrender your weapons and we won't kill you! As long as you don't harm the hostages, come out obediently, and confess your crimes truthfully, the court will give you a lighter sentence. If you insist on continuing to resist, then we will blow up the building!"
Chief Tad saw the arrogant Jimmy through the window on the second floor, as well as the well-equipped police officers and the RPGs loaded with rockets carried by the other side's minions.
"Boss! There's a Black Hawk helicopter above and so many police officers below. They also have RPG rockets. It's impossible for us to escape. If we don't surrender, we're dead!" the younger brothers said in despair.
"They definitely don't dare to blow up the building." Chief Tad still held out hope and insisted that the other party didn't have the courage to blow up the motel directly, so he immediately sent someone to have a conversation.
The younger brother gritted his teeth and raised his hands and walked out, saying, "Our boss said that we need you to prepare a car for us, and that damn Mano, our boss gave you so much money, supported so many of you, and helped you deal with so many competitors, and now you turn your back on us? Fxxk you! You son of a bitch!"
Seeing Jimmy and the sheriff's unhappy faces, the younger brother quickly said, "I didn't say that! Our boss said that!"
"Ok! We can prepare a car for you. You also have to ensure the safety of the hostages." Jimmy smiled. Someone actually offered it to him on his own initiative? Did they really not take clay explosives seriously?
In fact, it doesn’t really matter whether they are hostages or not. Those gathered here are either drug addicts or sex workers, but many of them are also victims of coercion. They can’t just leave no one alive.
"Make sure you don't attack us!" the leader shouted, "Keep your Black Hawk helicopters as far away as possible!"
Jimmy and the sheriff agreed immediately, and the group began to evacuate the scene.
Zhang Ailun also informed Boktu to fly the Black Hawk helicopter far away.
Watching the police officers and Jimmy's little brother leaving quickly from the second floor, the Tad members were also a little confused. "They left so obediently? Is it really for the hostages? Is it a trick?"
"We will just drive away in the police car, first into the bushes and woods, and then drive directly to the nearest town and community. Then even if they want to catch up with us in a Black Hawk helicopter, they will not be able to shoot at us! That will hurt a lot of people!" Chief Tad said with a clear mind.
The group of people immediately packed up their things and randomly captured a prostitute, who was a regular customer of their place and also a drug addict.
Seeing the other party's face full of fear and pleading, Chief Tad said without apology: "I'm sorry, man, we need your help now, or do you not want to help us?"
"Wouldn't it be better to just surrender? This way everyone can have a good outcome." The client's face was full of despair.
"F**k! What do you know? They mobilized so many manpower and resources just to kill me. If I surrender, I will definitely not end well."
The leader didn't trust his former partners at all, and cursed: "Who knows why they turned their guns on me? Is it because others offered more money? Or because they caught some evidence against me? He was worried that they would expose his dirty scandal, but he wasn't worried that I would blow myself up!"
They couldn't figure out why, but they still took all their valuables, packed them up and ran downstairs to the police car, not caring about the remaining sex workers and customers.
Chief Tad looked around and saw that there was no one around. Jimmy and the sheriff had already run several hundred meters away, and the Black Hawk helicopter had disappeared without a trace. He felt relieved immediately.
He asked the younger brother to get in the car and try to start it. There was still half a tank of gas in it, so there was no problem at all. Leader Tad immediately asked the younger brother to drive, stepped on the accelerator and drove away from the motel.
"Hahaha! They are idiots! They actually let us go! Damn them! They will definitely regret it!" Chief Tad shouted excitedly, "God bless you!!"
"Boss, there are too many people and the car is overloaded. If they want to chase us, we won't be able to run far before they catch up." The younger brother who was driving was also a little bit unbelievable. How could they escape so easily?
"Then eliminate the extra people." The leader pushed the hostages out of the car without hesitation.
The brothers opened the car door and threw the man out regardless of his resistance. The police car continued to move forward and turned into a remote woods according to the pre-arranged plan.
Jimmy on the other side was still chatting with Zhang Ailun, talking and laughing: "This idiot may not know that there is something called clay explosives and GPS positioning. Even if he runs far away, we can still deal with him."
This is the first time I've seen a criminal running away in a police car. You must be afraid that the police can't catch you, right?
"Boss, the signal has spread out for several hundred meters. They seem to have left the hostages and groceries behind. They also turned into the woods." The younger brother reported.
"Are you sure?" Jimmy asked.
“I’m sure of it!!”
"Then blow it up!" Jimmy snatched the crude electromagnetic signal detonator from his younger brother and pressed the red button.
The sheriff next to him saw this and wanted to say something but stopped.
Jimmy said mockingly, "Don't worry, I have plenty of cars in my car rental company, you can pick whatever you want! We have all kinds of cars! Ford, Chevrolet, even if you want a Cadillac or Bentley, I can provide them! All you need to do is sign the transfer list at the gun store!"
"You suburban police officers all like to ride in four-wheel pickup trucks and sedans, ha? After all, they can at least block a few bullets. Motorcycles are not very safe either. In the suburbs, you can easily be shot down if you are not careful. There are relatively fewer gun battles in the city than here, and the police officers are all iron-clad warriors." Jimmy grinned.
This is also an old tradition in Texas. People used to ride horses, but now they ride motorcycles.
But who would ride a motorcycle while on patrol in the suburbs late at night?
Bullets came at us from all directions, turning the place into a sieve with no room for error.
Drop drop drop drop.
On the other side, beautiful music suddenly sounded from the police car. Upon hearing this sound, Chief Tad thought he was hallucinating at first and doubted his life. "What! Whose cell phone is ringing? Didn't I tell you to turn off your cell phone signals? We can be easily located!"
"Boss, we are driving a police car, there is no way to block the signal, right?" The younger brother couldn't help but ask a question.
Hearing this sound, he couldn't help but think of a Chinese song he had heard before: The sound of raindrops outside the window...
"What do you know……"
Bang! ! !
The next second, flames shot up into the sky, and the entire police car exploded and rolled out on the spot. The leader was blown up before he could finish his words. The group of people were covered in bruises and even their money bags were blown away!
"What a waste! Such a waste! These Texans are good at everything except work and shooting. They don't like to loot." The chief leader was angry at them for not fighting back. Can a sharpshooter who doesn't like to loot be a good sharpshooter?
Seeing that the matter had come to a temporary end, Zhang Allen drove directly over to meet up with Jimmy and the others.
Boktu also received the next notification and instructions through the police channel, asking him to go and investigate the explosion site. After asking the chief leader for his opinion, he decisively drove the Black Hawk over there.
Looking down from a height of several dozen meters, I took some photos of the tragic scene, a broken iron car burning in flames in the wilderness.
Several police officers also came out with fire extinguishers to put out the fire, while the rest surrounded the motel building and rescued the victims and many girls from inside.
"A sin."
Zhang Ailun got out of the Bentley and looked at the listless underage sex workers, the many pregnant women with big bellies, and the clients, and couldn't help but criticize them.
"You're already sixty years old, and you're still here to have fun?"
"I paid for it, officer. How can it be illegal to be a prostitute..." The 60-year-old prostitute said aggrievedly, "Who hasn't ordered a wild game meal these days? At least I am free!"
"Don't call me officer. If I were a police officer, I would definitely blow your head off immediately. There is no law in Texas that stipulates that prostitution is legal! How many years in prison are required for violating minors and underage pregnant women?" Zhang Ailun turned around and asked the police officer who arrested him.
"Each district has different local laws, different situations, different lawyers and judges who handle the case, and different sentencing standards. In his case, he may only need to be sentenced to 300 hours of community service and tens of thousands of dollars in bail." The police officer replied: "It has always been like this before."
"No wonder there are so many similar incidents. The sentence is too light." Zhang Ailun sneered. Seeing that the girls and pregnant women were also picked up by the police, Zhang Ailun found Jimmy again, who was still arguing with the sheriff about the transfer of the gun store.
From the beginning, the sheriff had not agreed to transfer the gun shop to him. Now that the matter was over and the person was dead, the sheriff had some evil thoughts.
He argued, "You have no idea how difficult it is to run a gun shop. I'm not the only one with a stake in this. The Weir Company that lends money in suburban towns, the investors in underground casinos, and our director also have a stake. Many people buy from us, and there's not much risk, and the trading profits are also very high."
"How hard can it be? I can just kill them one by one, right?"
Jimmy didn't want to listen to his arguments and said viciously: "Do you think I can't cure you just because you're dead? F**k you! Just based on what you've done over the years, I can send all of you to jail!"
"You don't have any actual evidence of our chief's corruption and bribery. I just went to a hotel with a married woman consensually. I'm not married. What's the problem?" The sheriff spread his hands and started to act like a spoiled child. "If you want to shoot, then go ahead! If you kill me, we will put you on the wanted list! You can forget about staying in Austin!"
Jimmy's face darkened.
Zhang Ailun understood the situation and laughed, "Jimmy, are you kidding me?"
"Mr. Jin, I will definitely help you do what I promised you! This guy is playing tricks on me! He may think that I can't sue them because I don't have evidence of their crimes. He thinks that I don't want to break up with them, so I've become bolder!" Jimmy cursed.
Zhang Ailun smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. It's just evidence. When you were shooting, I had already asked Blitz to help you."
As he spoke, he took out his phone and played a video under the hesitant gaze of the sheriff.
oh, yes, oh, no, omg...
In the video, a fat, middle-aged white man was lying on top of two white girls and working hard. There was an American flag hanging on the wall. The sheriff was standing nearby and watching.
Some more photos were found, which were basically photos of the other party's real estate qualifications, photos of corruption and bribery, and a lot of evidence of on-site transactions.
Jimmy was amazed and full of admiration. "Mr. Jin, you really think a lot!"
"Gangsters don't eat brains. They will be gangsters all their lives." Zhang Ailun said.
The sheriff's face turned green after watching the video.
Jimmy also sneered at him: "Can't you see, Green Turtle, that you can become the sheriff only because of your daughter and wife? Now, can we trade the gun shop business?"
"Ok ok..." The sheriff had no choice but to agree. Jimmy took out the transfer contract that he had prepared long ago and asked him to sign it. He got the controlling stake in the gun shop without spending a penny. He then handed the contract to the chief leader.
"Mr. Jin, this Flying Eagle Gun Shop will be yours from now on."
"Nice name." Zhang Ailun checked the contract and qualification documents. The gun store's qualifications only had one star on , but that was only because the qualification requirements in Texas were relatively high. After all, there was a huge demand for guns, and so many people would buy them. There was no need to worry about sales and it was difficult to get a certificate.
Moreover, many of the previous transactions of the Flying Eagle Gun Shop could not be made public, and they were conducted through the streets and arms dealers.
Zhang Ailun smiled and did not refuse. He accepted the gun shop directly. "I will have to rely on you to take care of my business here in the future."
"Don't worry, as long as I, Jimmy, am here, no one will dare to mess with your gun shop!" Jimmy guaranteed it with his life.
After settling Tad's issue, leave the rest of the mess to the police.
"If other Tad members want to come and take revenge, let them come to me, Jimi. Only cowards will avoid a fight. I can fight them all the time! Until only one side wins!" Jimi made such a harsh remark, he seemed to have the demeanor of a street gangster.
After saying goodbye to the police officers, Zhang Ailun took a Bentley to the Flying Eagle Gun Shop.
The Eagle Gun Store has three locations, one of which can be found on the official navigation system, located in a neighborhood on the edge of downtown Austin. All formal orders are placed there, and it is open 24 hours a day.
One is a rented house in the suburbs, where street gun orders and unnumbered ghost guns are basically transported and traded.
The other is a small workshop that stores firearms, processes firearm parts, and hand-makes M4 and Ar series firearms.
When the leader came by car, he also saw a regular Flying Eagle Gun Store where scantily clad female clerks were posing, putting on makeup, and taking selfies. He didn't know if they had any side jobs.
The scale of a one-star store is not as big as imagined, and the security measures are also very general. It is just like an ordinary store on the street, with only anti-theft windows installed. However, no one would be so ignorant as to rob here.
