Chapter 649
You Hit My Heart
Obviously the situation around Victor was not quite suitable for him to
continue the call. Obviously Ricky was determined to put him to death
this time.
This made their nervous hearts, like a sudden break in the string, more
unsettled and panic.
Karl slammed on the brakes and made a sharp turn.
"Where are we going now? Victor just said he was going to the clock
tower. We donât seem to be in the right direction." Joyce reached out
and pressed Karl's hand on the steering wheel and questioned.
"We are going to the police headquarters first. I'll put you under our
witness protection, and you will go to a safe house." Karl's cold voice
came beside her.
âYou want to protect me, and then you go through the risk yourself?"
Joyce instantly felt a bit annoyed. She reached out and grabbed his
steering wheel to stop him from turning the car, âI do not agree, how
can I let you go to your death alone? I'm definitely not going to any safe
house!"
They were on the expressway, which wasn't really an ideal place for an
argument. Karl failed to make the turn and the vehicle continued to
move forward.
"Joyce, don't be ridiculous! Listen! Ricky is a professional killer with an
international background. I can't let anything happen to you." Karl
bellowed. He had never spoken to Joyce in such a stern tone before.
"So I can just stand by and watch something happen to you? You know
I won't. Take me with you!" Joyce refused to budge at all, "Don't waste
our time. Victor is in a dangerous situation, and how much time do you
think will be lost in one round trip if you take me to the police
headquarters?"
She knew that Karl was even less likely to feel comfortable about letting
her get out of the car and go to the police station alone. Under the
current situation, there were too many uncertainties and dangers.
The matter was urgent and they had no time for the choices.
Karl had no choice but to hit the gas and speed towards the clock tower
where Victor was currently located.
Meanwhile.
Ricky stood in the distance, looking at the smoking forensic center.
When he saw the thick black smoke, he showed a bloodthirsty cruel
smile.
This morning, he received an urgent report from his own connections in
the black market, who told him that the AWM gun he used were
suddenly bought yesterday by someone.
He immediately felt that something serious must have happened. It
couldn't be a coincidence.
Originally he did not put the gun on his mind, returning them as usual
afterwards. After all, he had no reason to spend an astronomical price
to buy it, simply to destroy it afterwards.
He never thought that someone would be looking for this gun.
He didn't tell Charlotte about it in the morning. He did not want it to
affect her engagement ceremony today.
Using all of his powers, he quickly found out that someone from the
police department had purchased the gun. He immediately realized
how serious the problem could be and recalled that he probably had left
some blood stains on the gun. Although he had wiped them clean at
the time, analysts could identify it was his blood. The police department
must have known that he was the one who killed Thomas, and they just
needed evidence.
He must not let them find out what happened, because this matter
would inevitably lead to further, and more serious exposure.
Since he would have to get rid of the gun this time...
At this moment he could not care less about the consequences. He
must remove all the obstacles in front of him, no matter what the cost
might be, and no matter what consequences it might cause. He had no
way back.
After setting everything up, he hired someone to blow up the forensic
center and cut off the satellite communications of the police station.
At least, within today, the police station, as well as the special police
forces, would not be able to work as usual.
He laughed coldly. Whoever stood in his way could only die.
He probably already guessed who would be behind this.
With such intelligence, such ability, and such monetary strength, who
else but Karl could that be?
