Legendary FBI Detective-Chapter 349: Abandoned Industrial Park, PACA, SR-25

"Shit!"

Inside the SUV speeding forward like a black bolt of lightning, Luo An remained composed upon hearing Mona's exclamation, Reesi cursed under her breath, Michelle furrowed her brows tightly, and Wan De...

Wan De didn't speak; the SUV was moving too fast, and he had already closed his eyes, his mind wandering elsewhere.

"Mona, keep monitoring the situation around the industrial park at all times."

Without wasting words, Luo An signaled Reesi to turn off her phone, then pressed the communicator, solemnly telling the SWAT team members:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the target location has been confirmed: the abandoned industrial park.

Upon arriving at the scene, if you encounter any resistance, you are authorized to kill on sight! Repeat, authorized to kill on sight!"

"Understood!" xN

Turning off the communicator, Luo An spun the steering wheel and floored the gas pedal, and the SUV immediately shot through between two startled pedestrians.

Five minutes later, the SUV driven by Luo An was the first to arrive at the abandoned industrial park, and he saw the car driven by John.

He disengaged the safety on his Glock 18 before stepping out of the SUV. At this moment, the interior of the industrial park was deathly quiet, without a hint of gunfire.

"Michelle, you stay here and wait for the SWAT team, then enter the premises with them."

Luo An grabbed Michelle, who was pressing down her discomfort and ready to draw her weapon to move forward, and nodded towards Wan De, who was still sitting in the car catching his breath, whispering:

"Additionally, pay extra attention to Wan De's safety."

Hearing the word "safety" from Luo An, and seeing the look in his eyes, Michelle immediately grasped the true meaning behind Luo An's words and responded with a grave nod:

"Okay, mission will be accomplished."

"Good."

Luo An, satisfied, patted Michelle's arm, and then, along with Reesi, cautiously advanced into the industrial park in a guarded stance.

"Watch the corners."

Since they were unsure of how many enemies there were, for Reesi's safety, Luo An chose not to split up but instead stayed close to Reesi, one leading and one following, carefully and slowly scouting the industrial park.

As they slowly walked past the first two factories, Luo An and Reesi found nothing but piles of discarded materials.

The two reached the end of the second warehouse. Reesi and Luo An abruptly stopped because in the open space between the second and third warehouses stood four figures clad in bulletproof vests, holding rifles, heads covered with clothes making it hard to see their faces, just two eyes revealed.

"With that getup, I thought I had stumbled into a drug cartel's lair in South America."

Reesi muttered under her breath as she looked at the four, and Luo An pointed at the bulletproof vests on the four and chuckled softly:

"Those drug cartels in South America can't afford bulletproof vests by PACA."

PACA, short for Protective Apparel Corporation of America, is one of the pioneers in the law enforcement, military, and private security markets, providing a variety of high-quality bulletproof and stab-resistant products for law enforcement officers and special forces, and their products come with a hefty price tag, not something ordinary people can easily afford.

"Really?"

Reesi was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then frowned slightly because the performance of the opponents' body armor was not much different from what she and Luo An were wearing.

"It seems that behind this case, there is some other situation that we are not aware of."

Luo An took a careful look around, pondered for a few seconds, then pointed in another direction and said:

"Wait here for a moment while I check out that direction.

If gunfire comes from that direction, under the premise of ensuring your own safety, fire a couple of shots to attract attention, then retreat from this area and wait for the SWAT team to arrive, and then move in with them."

"...OK."

Reesi initially wanted to refuse, but considering her own skills and the difference between her and the adversaries, she silently looked at Luo An for a long time and then said solemnly:

"Be careful."

"Don't worry, trust me."

Luo An grinned and quickly ran toward a nearby shadow, then his figure flashed, disappearing from Reesi's view.

Seeing Luo An completely disappear from sight, Reesi took a deep breath, silently prayed to God for him, then grabbed her gun and found a concealed spot to slowly hide herself.

The destination Luo An was heading to was one of the commanding heights of the industrial park. From that position, he could get a clear view of the inside of Factory No. 3.

Anyone with even a slight knowledge of military tactics could see the importance of that commanding height.

The group wearing PACA bulletproof vests were clearly not ordinary people. Therefore, this commanding height must be guarded.

But Luo An wasn't flustered because the area of the commanding height was small, at most it could only fit two people.

There was a small blind spot right below the commanding height. It was a tight space, but after a quick assessment, Luo An figured it was enough for him to climb up.

"A mission to take over the commanding height."

Hidden in the shadows, Luo An looked at the slight bulge on the commanding height, twisted his wrist, grinned, and gulped down a bottle of hemostatic potion and a bottle of agility potion.

In the next second, Luo An's figure vanished like a ghost, disappearing from his original location.

Elsewhere, on the commanding height, a man with a buzz cut and a hooked nose was lying down beside another buzz-cut man with a scar beside his eyes, who was holding a pair of binoculars, carefully scanning the surroundings.

The one with the hooked nose was joyfully caressing the SR-25 sniper rifle in front of him.

The SR-25 sniper rifle, a product that combines the AR-10 and the AR-15 rifles, shares around 60% of its parts directly from those two rifles.

Currently, the Federation Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and some private military contractors all have equipped SR-25 sniper rifles. It is one of the preferred weapons for special forces and operational units. It boasts extremely high praise in both civilian competitions and military use.

After many years of working, the man with the hooked nose was excited about using a sniper rifle that was both so good and so new.

If it were just the chance to use this rifle once, the hooked-nose would not have been so thrilled.

What truly excited him was that the boss heard of his skills in sniping and bought this rifle especially for him.

Thinking that this rifle would belong to him forever, the man with the hooked nose couldn't help but smile with glee, revealing his bad teeth.

The scar-eyed man put down the binoculars and turned with a confused look:

"Hey, what are you laughing at?"

The hooked-nose wiped his nose and explained in a low chuckle:

"I plan to beat up that bald guy who always mocks me with this gun after the mission is over.

Then I'll snatch his girl, and let him see what I'm really made of."

The scar-eyed man knowing the conflict between the two shook his head in silence and started observing the surroundings with the binoculars again.

Zzzrt—

Just then, a somewhat hoarse voice came through the walkie-talkie next to the scar-eyed man:

"Mission complete, prepare to evacuate."

The scar-eyed man quickly picked up the walkie-talkie and responded:

"Roger that, we will retreat shortly."

Click—

With that, the walkie-talkie was turned off. Carefully, the man with the hooked nose started to caress the SR-25 again, while the guy with the scar took up his binoculars once more.

At this moment, both of them suddenly realized that the shadows cast were somewhat off, as if there was an extra person's shadow.

The hooked-nose man's pupils constricted in realization, and he instinctively reached for the dagger at his waist, aiming to stab behind him, only to find his hand being grabbed by someone, and another hand grasping his jaw.

Understanding what his assailant intended to do, his eyes widened in horror, and he struggled frantically to escape the grip, but the assailant's right hand was like a vise, impossible to break free from.

Crack—

With a forceful twist to the right under the terrifying strength, the hooked-nose's neck broke instantly, and his body went limp, lifeless.

"Fu-k!"

The set of moves Luo An used to bring the hooked-nose into a deep sleep was so swift and fierce that the scar-eyed man's eyebrows trembled and he was at a loss for words.

However, now was not the time for hesitation. As anxious as the scar-eyed man was, he didn't panic. The moment before the hooked-nose man hit the ground, he had already drawn his pistol and aimed it at Luo An.
