The World of American Drama: From the Los Angeles Patrol

Chapter 208 Shopping Mall Attack
Thinking of the upcoming good things between Jia Lisi and John, Jack incidentally thought of Zoe and Maureen's wedding. During the last date, the two sisters kept hinting to him that they wanted a special wedding gift.

I don't know how special is special, can I pack myself into a gift box?This kind of love affair between lovers is the most brain-intensive. Although Jack can't be called a straight man, he doesn't have many brain cells in this regard.

Rubbing his head with a headache, he took the elevator to the 5th floor and found Hotchina. His wife Halle had finished the examination and was in good condition. She was under observation overnight and will be discharged tomorrow.

Jack asked him to pass on a small box of pastries, "It's a kind of... uh... my homemade tiramisu."

Hotchina looked at the cold cake sprinkled with a layer of vanilla powder and osmanthus in doubt, with question marks on his face.

"I used lotus root powder as the raw material. Although it has a sweet taste, even pregnant women who are worried about blood sugar problems can taste it with confidence."

Seeing that Hotchner's eyes widened as if he didn't understand, Jack spent a few more minutes teaching him what lotus root is and why lotus root powder is delicious and nutritious.

Seeing his half-understanding look, Jack could only resort to a unique trick and asked him to go back to Dr. Reed, the 'Universal Encyclopedia' to understand.

Although many ingredients can be bought in Huachao now, the guys like Lao Mei who chew on peonies can't even understand a bamboo shoot, let alone a lotus root.

As a native of Jiangnan, Hongling Lotus Seed Chicken Head Rice is an indispensable delicacy in his childhood memory.

After that, the two walked out of the hospital while chatting, and turned into a Starbucks not far away.

Hotchner was very curious about Jack's experience, especially the pistol skills shown on the shooting range, which made him feel inferior to himself as a sharpshooter.

Jack didn't know how much Rossi had told him. He only knew that although Hotchner was a prosecutor, he joined the FBI very early.

He worked for Rossi for a while, and later went to SWAT under the FBI and the FBI Operations Office in Seattle.

So Jack could only pick some cases in LAPD to talk about. Fortunately, everyone has become a smart old fox, but after half a cup of coffee, both of them have a clear understanding of each other's position in BAU.

The Starbucks next to the hospital is located under a shopping mall. It was just afternoon, and the parking lot was full of pickups and SUVs. Americans like to take the whole family out for shopping on weekends, and buy directly for a week or two. food for the week.

Thinking about the date with the two Royal Sisters at night, Jack didn't plan to chat too deeply with the BAU director. It's one thing to go along with the flow and make a personal relationship, but it's too hot when it comes up, and it's easy to be regarded as flattering.

Under the pretext of rushing home to water the flowers and fertilize, Jack quickly said goodbye to Hotchina, holding an unfinished half cup of coffee in his left hand, and just stepped out of the automatic door of Starbucks when a "bang" shot was heard, five or sixty meters away, A large piece of floor-to-ceiling glass on the ground floor of the mall shattered.

He shrank his neck in fright, pulled out the Glock from his waist, and found the front of an SUV nearby as a cover.

Then came the sound of gunfire.

“Da da da da da”

The sound of continuous bursts of automatic rifles was heard, and then, the gate of the shopping mall that was originally crowded with people began to swarm out like a frying pan.

Seeing some old and weak women and children with inflexible legs and feet being pushed to the ground, and then trampled ruthlessly by the crowd, Jack felt his scalp go numb and his adrenaline began to soar.

Crying and screaming were mixed together, and some clever people had already started the vehicle, trying to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible amidst the screeching tire friction.

"What happened?" Hochner rushed out of the coffee shop, also drew his gun, and leaned nervously beside Jack, looking at the gate of the shopping mall where the crowds were pouring out.

"I don't know. It sounds like an AR-15 with a modified gun stock. The gunman should be on the first floor of the mall, but he can't see it from here."

Jack observed the surrounding situation while talking.

At this time, the crowd rushing out of the shopping mall had already dispersed. Some people who fell down and were injured or were too frightened to run away also crouched down with their heads covered, or simply lay on the ground, covering their heads with their arms.

It has to be said that the first reaction of the people of the beautiful country is still very standard in dealing with the shooting.

Jack bent over and ran a few steps, and switched to the front of another SUV. The angle here was facing the gate of the mall, so he could see the interior more clearly.

A figure wrapped in Kevlar and wearing a khaki tactical vest appeared behind the door.

This guy still has a level 4 bulletproof helmet on his head, a Benelli M4 shotgun on his back, and an AR-15 in his right hand. At the moment, he is using the pistol in his left hand to name the wounded on the ground one by one.

The trouble was serious, Jack glanced at the Glock 22 in his hand, compared with this fully armed guy, it seemed not much different from a water gun.

At this time, Hotchina had already finished calling the police with his mobile phone, bent over to follow Jack, and looked at the situation inside the mall with his head, his face turned black.

"Bang, bang" the gunman finished his gun at the wounded moaning on the ground, threw away the emptied pistol, and walked towards the door while reloading the AR-15 in his hand, apparently staring at the door those nearby.

"Help cover." Seeing that this guy was about to start a killing spree as soon as he walked out of the door, Jack didn't dare to delay any longer, and handed his hand to Hotchina.

"What are you going to do?" Hotchner couldn't help being taken aback, and subconsciously took Jack's gun.

Jack took out the FK7.5 under his armpit, flashed it at him, and said in a low voice, "Attract his attention and buy me a second."

Hotchina swallowed subconsciously, her voice a little dry.

"you sure?"

"I'm not sure, do you have a better idea?" Jack didn't know why. After all, master-level pistol shooting only adds accuracy, without armor penetration and damage.

"Don't force it, just grab your attention."

Thinking of the wife of the future immediate boss lying in the hospital with a big belly, Jack panicked a little, so he hurriedly exhorted him.

This FLAG is a bit bad, he doesn't want to change his boss right after entering BAU, although he has always been a resident character in "Criminal Minds" in his impression, but this unexpected situation doesn't look like the original plot.

Jack bent down and ran a few steps forward to the right, and came to the back of a pickup truck. Now he is the closest to the gate of the mall, about 40 meters away, and Hotchner is behind him on the left.

The two formed an angle of about 30 degrees, facing the gunman who had already walked out of the mall.

"Your cup!"

Hearing Hochner's whisper behind him, Jack realized that he had been subconsciously holding the half cup of coffee with his left hand.

Damn, this AC is installed today, the corners of Jack's eyes twitched slightly, he smiled at Hochner seemingly calmly, put down the disposable paper cup in his hand, made an OK gesture to him, and then changed to holding guns with both hands .

Hotchner was about to bite his lip to the point of bleeding, hesitated for a moment, and saw that the gunman had already pointed his gun at a middle-aged woman who was protecting the child, and suddenly let out a roar.

"FXXK YOU, FBI!"

While roaring, he put his two arms directly on the hood of the SUV, and pulled the trigger with the two Glocks in his left and right hands at the same time.

"Bang bang bang bang bang."
