Chapter 563 - 574: Insight
Alice Brown sat in James Brown’s car, initially focusing intently on the two cars belonging to the criminals. However, watching James drive so swiftly, almost colliding with other vehicles several times, her heart was in her throat. But after following for a while, James’s car gradually distanced itself from the other cars, and she couldn’t help but urgently say, "Big Brother Brown, hurry up, we’re going to lose them."
James calmly replied, "Right now, we need to let them think they’ve escaped the police. Only then will they take further action. They can’t keep driving those two police vans indefinitely. If they don’t think they’ve shaken off the police, they’ll remain in those two vehicles. Even if they run out of gas and we force them to stop, as long as they’ve got hostages, we still can’t do anything to them."
Alice worriedly said, "But if we can’t catch up to them, won’t they be able to escape?"
"No, I know where they’re heading." James flashed a subtle smile.
"You know?" Alice widened her eyes in disbelief.
James nodded and said, "Even though they seem to be driving randomly and not taking the same routes, no matter how much they turn, they haven’t left the vicinity of F Street. Near F Street, there’s an auto repair shop with two vans parked there; that’s where they’re headed."
Alice widened her eyes in surprise at James, asking, "Big Brother Brown, when did you figure this out?"
"Haha, I just guessed. Following them right now isn’t much help; let’s see if I’m right." James chuckled, swerved, and forced an Audi A4 that had just left the gas station to stop.
James jumped out of the car and flashed a badge in front of the driver, saying, "Police business, I need to commandeer your vehicle."
The driver, a young man in his twenties, was taken aback and didn’t get out but instead frantically tried to roll up the window. For a regular person, encountering a situation where police commandeer a car is too rare. With so many scams nowadays involving impersonating police officers, he instinctively thought James was trying to con him and steal his car.
