Two cars drove over from not far away, a black sedan and a white sedan, both drove one after the other into the suspect Mo Shaohong's house.

Luke's gaze narrowed slightly.

Amir Khan habitually pushed his glasses, looking out the window, "1234, four people got out of the two cars, all wearing hoods and masks, can't see their faces.

Are these guys also from the Flying Dragon Gang?"

The four people were dressed very securely, and Luke didn't see any signs of tattoos or the like, unable to confirm if they were members of the Flying Dragon Gang. Judging by their behavior, they seemed to be very familiar with the suspect Mo Shaohong and went directly into Mo Shaohong's house.

The walkie-talkie sounded with Michael's voice, "Consultant Li, Mo Shaohong's accomplices have arrived, what are your thoughts?"

Luke said, "Although we don't know their purpose yet, they are likely to take action, better be careful. I suggest calling for backup."

"Agreed, keep in touch, over."

Luke put down the walkie-talkie, took out a bulletproof vest with the FBI insignia from the car's back seat. Although he had the Bullet-Proof Card, saving one card is better than nothing.

Amir Khan in the passenger seat also picked up a bulletproof vest and put it on, asked, "Consultant Li, do you think we are in danger?"

"I don't know either, this isn't Los Angeles." Luke retorted, "What do you think?"

Amir Khan pushed his glasses and replied, "Uh... if they are really gang members, I'm not particularly worried.

Asian, especially Chinese gangs usually value peace and rarely clash with law enforcement."

"Hope you're right." Luke checked his pistol and asked, "What's in the trunk in terms of heavy weapons? If there is a firefight, these alone won't be enough."

Amir Khan shrugged, "I don't know either."

"OK." Luke was somewhat helpless, muttering, was Michael Jett eyeing my consultant position, that's why he arranged such an inexperienced partner, hoping to get rid of me using gangsters.

Amir Khan seemed to sense Luke's dissatisfaction as well, turned his head to look out the window to hide his embarrassment, "Hey, the door of the villa opened!"

Luke turned his head to look, as the door opened, four people came out of the house, wearing black down jackets, hoods, and masks, impossible to see their faces.

The four individuals respectively got into the two cars, started the engines, and left, without even sparing a glance at Luke and his team.

Amir Khan grinned and said, "Wow, four went in, and four got into the cars and left, they are dressed so securely, it's impossible to identify their specific identity.

It's possible that Mo Shaohong stayed in the villa or left in any car.

I somehow feel like I'm doing a multiple-choice math problem."

Luke looked at him, "Honor student, what's your choice? Black car, white car, or the villa?"

During the conversation, the two cars got onto the community road, heading in opposite directions east and west.

Amir Khan replied, "This is a probability problem, somewhat similar to the Monty Hall problem.

So, I choose Mo Shaohong stayed in the villa."

Luke started the car, turned the wheel, and followed the black car.

Amir Khan "..."

Buddy, is this okay?

How does everyone get along happily?

Luke turned on the walkie-talkie, "Michael, I'm following the black car, the rest is up to you."

The walkie-talkie was silent for a moment, Michael said, "OK, I'll keep an eye on the villa and have nearby patrol officers assist in intercepting and checking the white vehicle."

Luke asked, "What about the black sedan?"

"Intercept, check whether the suspect Mo Shaohong is inside."

"On what grounds do we intercept?"

"An informant reported he was involved in a murder case."

"Arrest directly?"

The walkie-talkie was silent for a moment, then Michael Jett gave an affirmative response, "Yes."

"Is there authorization?"

"I'll apply to Supervisor Negan."

Luke said, "So you haven't."

"Just keep an eye on that car, if Mo Shaohong is inside, don't let him run, leave the rest to me, OK?"

"Got it." Luke hung up the walkie-talkie, and said to Amir Khan beside him, "Did you hear all that?"

"Yes, I support Michael being the team leader, but I still have to say, he is a bit reckless.

This matter could very well be messed up." Amir Khan sighed.

The black sedan wasn't fast, Luke had already closed the distance to it, seeing it was a black Buick sedan, "If you were the team leader, what would you do?"

Amir Khan said, "I'd continue to investigate evidence of Mo Shaohong's crimes, wouldn't act hastily before that."

"If Mo Shaohong is hiding in one of the departing vehicles, escaping to another state or country, what would you do?"

"Wow...

Suddenly I'm kind of glad... I'm not the acting team leader." Amir Khan shrugged, looked at Luke beside him and asked, "Consultant Li, what would you do?"

Amir Khan asked back, "Would you just watch Mo Shaohong escape, or arrest with insufficient evidence and no authorization?"

Luke smiled, "I'd find his incriminating evidence before Mo Shaohong escapes."

"Do you think Team Leader Michael is incompetent?"

Luke shook his head, "That's what you said."

Actually, FBI authorization is just a messy issue, as long as you have a good relationship with your superior, and they are willing to support you, it's the same as acting first and buying the ticket later.

But doing such things also carries risks, if you catch the wrong person or screw up the case, it leaves your superior with the impression of incompetence and love to stir up trouble.
