"Nothing seems out of the ordinary."
Luke put down the telescope in his hand and turned back to Peter and Connor.
At this time, they were sitting in a seemingly ordinary black business car, parked at the corner of the road only a few dozen meters away from the residence of Connor's adoptive parents. In addition to Peter and Luke, there are also Sam, Brandes and Downey, as well as an entire NIA action team.
"Have Gait and the others retreated?"
Connor said worriedly.
Luke hesitated and said, "We should retreat. The local police station reported that police officers came to the door."
Connor was slightly relieved after hearing this. Although his adoptive parents were not good to him, he did not want them to die in the hands of robots.
"No, that's not right." Brandes, wearing sunglasses, suddenly said, "I didn't sense the breath of a living person from that room."
Connor's expression changed drastically when he heard this, and Peter hurriedly comforted him: "Don't panic, let's try to make a call first."
He dialed Gate's home phone again, and not long after, the call was connected.
"Connor? Where have you been? Why haven't you come home yet? Your adoptive father and I are worried about you." Mrs. Gate's voice came from the microphone, "Come back quickly. I made your favorite dish. And ordered pizza.”
Listening to the words coming from the phone, Connor's face became paler. He covered the phone with his hand and whispered to Peter: "It's weird, she has never been so kind to me."
"Give it to me." Sam took the phone and when he opened his mouth, Connor's voice came out, "Are there any police officers coming to the door today?"
"Yes, but we sent him away. It's okay, Connor, we will protect you."
Brandes took the phone from Sam again and made the same voice as Connor; "Why does Abu keep barking? What's wrong with him?"
"Oh, it's okay, maybe I'm hungry."
After hearing this, Brandes hung up the phone and turned to the others: "His dog's name is 'John', so we can take action. The guy inside is definitely not the Gates."
Luke nodded, held down his earphones and gave the order. Immediately, the heavily armed special forces soldiers got out of the car and surrounded Gate's residence from three directions.
Connor looked at Brandes blankly: "How do you know the dog's name?"
Brandes turned back and smiled: "Son, I know a lot."
Peter said nervously: "Then do you think we can succeed this time?"
Brandes shrugged: "It depends on the person."
"Then let's go help too, and Connor will be left to you."
Peter and Donnie also got out of the car and caught up with Luke and others.
Being stared at by Sam's gray eyes and Brandes who was still wearing sunglasses in the car, Connor felt uncomfortable all over and said cautiously: "How about... I go and take a look too?"
With that said, he wanted to open the car door. Unfortunately, before he could make a move, Sam caught him.
"My child, the outside world is too dangerous. You should just stay with us."
Sam smiled slightly, revealing two rows of white teeth that made Connor panic.
Soon there was fierce gunfire outside, and a moment later, grenade explosions also sounded one after another, causing the car windows to shake violently. Connor nervously leaned against the car window and looked out, but it was so dark that he couldn't see anything else except the flickering firelight.
After another ten minutes, there was a sudden loud "boom" and half the house was blown away. A white shadow jumped out from the flying debris, rushed into the night in the blink of an eye, and disappeared without a trace.
"Damn it." Peter fell from the air, opened the car door, and shook his head at Sam and the others, "That guy can't be beaten to death. Donnie even chopped him into dozens of pieces, but he can still be fused together."
Luke, who was covered in dust, ran over quickly and said urgently: "Sam, several brothers are injured, can you help?"
With that said, he patted Peter's shoulder again, nodded and said, "Thanks to you, kid, otherwise those brothers would have been injured more than just injured."
"no problem."
Sam got out of the car and followed Luke to treat the wounded.
Peter sighed and said to Brandes: "Aunt Bran, can you predict where that guy will go next?"
Brandes smiled mysteriously and looked at Connor: "Actually, I don't need to say it, this kid should know it too, right?"
Connor was stunned for a moment, but then he came to his senses. His face suddenly changed and he said urgently: "Mental hospital? My mother?"
Brandes nodded: "Since I can't kill you as the primary target, then I'll kill the secondary target. Isn't this the logical thinking of the machine?"
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's notify the mental hospital immediately and ask them to evacuate immediately. Then we will ambush there."
Peter got into the car.
Brandes waved his hand: "Don't panic, let's pick up someone first and wait for Sherron's call."
Peter's face suddenly turned red and he groaned: "The team leader should be busy now. He may not have time to call us."
Brandes smiled strangely: "He is indeed busy, but after a while, he will be even busier."
She pointed at Peter: "You drive, let's go first."
Peter was stunned: "But I'm not an adult yet, and I haven't gotten my driver's license yet."
"It's not like you can't drive, what are you talking about?" Brandes snorted: "Are you asking me to drive, or this kid, or Donnie?"
Looking at Donnie, who came back with a long knife and an expressionless expression, and sat directly in the back seat, Peter touched his nose, reluctantly got out of the car, and changed to the driver's seat: "Where are we going?"
"Drive straight ahead and I'll show you the way."
Just as Peter was driving a commercial vehicle without a license and swaying on the road, Sherron, who was also caught in a fierce battle and under fire, received a special call.
"Director William?"
Sherron said somewhat breathlessly.
"Huh? Detective Xie, are you busy?"
"horse riding."
"Oh... Although you are young, you have just been discharged from the hospital, so you need to take care of your health." William was indeed an old fox. He immediately understood what was going on and said with a smile, "Then you are busy. I will contact you when you are done."
"Just tell me, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish my work in a short period of time."
Xie Lun felt Tina's small movements, took a slight breath, and his strength and speed increased a few points.
"As expected, you are young and in good health, which makes us old guys envious." William changed the subject and said in a deep voice, "You still remember the previous hijacking incident, right? Although it was Pierce who suggested it, I still agreed to let you go. Do you know why?"
Xie Lun smiled: "This was your cultivation back then."
"I know that you are not an ordinary person, and not an ordinary person should bear extraordinary responsibilities, just like the hero back then." William seemed to recall something, and his words were a bit sighing, "So now I need to give you a task , if you can complete it, then I can assure you that you will have a bright future, at least within the NIA."
"Mission?" Xie Lun heard the hidden meaning of William's words and smiled, "Is this mission very difficult? No problem, you can give the order. I also like challenges."
"That's right. According to the intelligence report, a nuclear bomb has been transported into the United States and is preparing to launch a terrorist attack on our country. However, the whereabouts of this nuclear bomb are still unknown." William said solemnly, "Now I need you to find this nuclear bomb. Stop this attack."
