Chapter 800 Captured alive ending
Ray Higgins' car was an old Ford pickup truck. Clay found an old blanket and lay down in the bed of the truck holding a Benelli M4 shotgun.
Jack drove on the road, and soon followed Gabriel's request, driving on Route 40 heading east. The old sheriff was sitting in the passenger seat, holding his cell phone with a complicated look on his face.
"To be honest, I won't mind no matter what the outcome is. At this age, I have taken death lightly."
Of course he was talking about his own life and death. As for Gabriel, if he didn't care, he wouldn't have followed.
Jack smiled and joked, "Then you are different from the old people I know. I know one who has been retired for several years. He is over 60 years old and still calls himself a vagabond, as proud as an old peacock.
There is also an old guy who is over 80 years old. His biggest hobby is staring at the nurse’s butt. "
Ray Higgins burst into laughter, "My two daughters are grown up and have their own lives. Since Susan left, I have been unable to find a place in this world."
Jack didn't know how to comfort this old man. Although birth, old age, illness and death are normal in life, many old people who live alone die soon after their partner dies, just because they can't go through the grief alone.
There could have been another script for this story. Gabriel became the adopted son of the Higgins family and enjoyed more care. Maybe his character would not be so extreme. Maybe he could really successfully start a family as an adult.
In this way, even after Ray Higgins loses his old wife who has been with him for many years, he can still be taken care of and can turn his attention to the new generation.
Some people may be dismissive of this traditional family model, or even extremely reject it, believing that in the new era, so-called diversity is the future.
However, these people ignore that even in today's society, those who are not so jumping up and down, those ordinary silent majority, still maintain the old life style in their eyes, silently multiplying from generation to generation. Live.
Feeling that the atmosphere in the car was too solemn, Jack changed the topic and talked about Ray Higgins' residence.
It was quite different from what he had expected. A few years ago, Ray Higgins' wife Susan was suffering from cancer. The old man was very busy and had no energy or extra funds to maintain it. That's why the house looked like this. dilapidated.
After sending his wife away, the old man spent a few months getting himself in order, and finally made up his mind to slowly put the family back together while he was still in good health. This led to the scene he saw during his previous visit. .
The old man and the young man chatted casually for a few words about the issue of house repair, which was quite congenial, until the phone suddenly rang. Ray Higgins quickly answered the phone, and Gabriel's voice came from the phone, "You guys Where are you?"
Jack pointed on the navigation, and Ray Higgins quickly reported his location.
"Take the next intersection onto Barker Road, you're almost there." Then Gabriel hung up the phone before Ray Higgins could answer.
Jack tapped the hidden headset in his ear lightly, "We are going to turn at Buck Road and will be off the main road soon. Don't follow us yet."
The mobile phones issued by the FBI have positioning functions, and with the command vehicle following behind, there is no need to worry about exceeding the radio signal range.
After a while of twists and turns, Ray Higgins answered a few more phone calls. Under his guidance, the car drove onto a country dirt road.
"It's a farmhouse on Willow Grove Road." Jack reported the final address, then looked at the old sheriff and warned, "As soon as you see Gabriel, get out of the car as soon as possible and stand between us and him. between."
Naturally, this is not to let Ray Higgins block the gun in front, but to attract Gabriel's attention.
Although this guy's behavior is extreme, he shouldn't be able to kill his mentor as soon as he sees him based on an email. He should always ask for details.
As long as he shows up, Jack is sure that Ray Higgins is safe.
A somewhat dilapidated wooden house appeared in front of him, with a for-sale sign not far from the door. Jack slowed down and reminded in a low voice, "Clay!"
There was a soft sound in the bed of the pickup truck. Jack glanced at the rearview mirror and saw Clay's figure flashing past behind the car and getting into the grass on the roadside.
The tires made a rustling sound as they ran over the fine gravel on the path. As soon as Jack stopped the car and put on the handbrake, his phone rang again.
"You two get out of the car, Ray, and you come to the front of the house and get away from that FBI."
"Can you at least show your face first?" Before Ray Higgins could speak, Jack leaned towards the phone and said loudly.
The phone was hung up, and the door of the cabin facing the pickup truck was suddenly opened, but no one showed up. Only a hand holding a mobile phone stretched out and swung up and down twice.
Before Jack could say anything, Ray Higgins couldn't wait to open the door and get out of the car, standing between the pickup truck and the cabin.
"Gabe, I'm here, Gabe!"
"Come out, Gabe, let's have a chat!" He opened his arms as if to welcome a child who had been away from home for many days.
Jack sighed silently, then opened the door, walked around the front of the car, crossed his arms and leaned on the hood.
It's a bit awkward to wear a bulletproof vest and use a waist or armpit holster. In most cases, Jack's pistol will be stuffed into the tactical pocket on the bulletproof vest. This position allows him to draw the gun as quickly as possible. It won’t show too much hostility in the first place.
The door creaked open, and Gabriel, dressed in a patrolman's uniform, walked out carefree, even with a smile on his face.
"When I came to see you four years ago, I passed by here and found this place. At that time, there was a sign for sale."
He pointed to the large open space around him, "I was thinking at the time that maybe I could renovate this place with Alissa and make it our new home.
But times have changed, just like you, Ray. You taught me to be honest, but you learned to lie. You betrayed me, right? I saw the email you sent to Peroni."
Ray Higgins stepped forward and ignored Gabriel's right hand on the pistol at his waist. "That's all fake, Gab, it was written by the FBI, I have never betrayed you."
"I forged the email. We found the Trojan program you planted on Peroni's phone, Gabriel." Seeing that Ray Higgins was still moving forward, Jack hurriedly clarified loudly.
They were now about 20 meters apart. The old sheriff had almost walked to the middle and deliberately stood between the two. He was not worried that Gabriel would shoot him, but that they did not want to shoot each other.
Jack was not angry because reinforcements were still on the way. The longer they delayed, the better. "We have to find a way to find you first, so that we can ensure that you will not die under the guns of your colleagues."
"I have nothing to say to you, FBI guys, you are all liars, you are in the same group as those who harmed me." Gabriel pointed his finger at Jack and suddenly became excited.
"Whatever you say." Jack shrugged indifferently and continued loudly, "But don't you want to witness what happened to those guys who harmed you? I know you've been paying attention to the news and the Internet recently, and the public has seen it, so it can't fool anyone, right?"
Ray Higgins also quickly agreed, "These are all true. Now everyone knows that you are telling the truth. The FBI has helped you prove that your previous statements are true. Those bad guys will pay the price for this."
"So what did I get in the end?" Gabriel's voice was faintly tearful, "I killed someone for this , I killed innocent people, now is it my turn to pay the price? "
Ray Higgins also burst into tears, "Don't do this, Gabe, please, don't give them a reason to shoot, surrender, I love you, just like my own son.
Maybe I can live another ten or twenty years, maybe I can wait until the day you are released on bail, I will try my best to live and come to the prison to see you often. "
"In position, aiming at Gabriel, waiting for your order to shoot." At this time, Hannah's voice came from Jack's headset, followed by two gentle knocks, which was a signal from Clay, indicating that he was also in position.
There is no need to waste time, they are neither here to participate in the debate nor to coax children, Jack took out the brass belt buckle from his pocket and held it high.
"'Veritas Ante Omnia', truth is supreme, right? You at least insisted on yourself, didn't you? This requires considerable courage, and there are many ways to pay the price, there is no need to add another life."
Jack walked quickly forward, walked to Ray Higgins, and threw the belt buckle to Gabriel. At the moment when the other party's attention was completely attracted by this thing, his lips moved slightly and uttered a word, "Action!"
Gabriel was bending down to pick up the belt buckle in front of him. Clay, who had walked around the side of the house, suddenly flashed out from behind him, and the Benelli M4 shotgun in his hand kept firing, and all five bean bag bullets were used up in one breath.
At the same time, Jack, who was standing next to Ray Higgins, pushed the old man away, rushed forward, and pressed Gabriel, who was screaming in pain, to the ground, snatched the pistol from his waist, and quickly searched his whole body.
"Leave here first." Jack was surprised to find an ominous smell of gasoline coming from the door of the wooden house after approaching. He quickly handcuffed Gabriel and dragged him to the open space.
"It looks like he wants to burn himself." Clay carried a shotgun and took a bucket of gasoline out of the house and put it outside the house.
"Pah!" Jack slapped Gabriel with his backhand, "I slapped him on behalf of Sheriff Higgins. Obviously, he only gave you love, but did not give you a strict father-like teaching."
