America 1881: They Call Me Legend

Chapter 46 The Kidnapping Case Solved

Xiao En, Asuka and Adam all paid attention to Chen Jianqiu at the same time.

Asuka was puzzled, Sean had a black face with question marks, and Adam smacked his lips.

Chen Jianqiu didn't even turn his head: "We can't get in, we don't have enough manpower, and there may be casualties."

"Then, in what name did you report to the police? These people are not on the reward list in Colorado."

"Kidnapping. Lockhart just died. Holmes, who had a close relationship with him, logically said that the police should protect them. Both of them are somewhat famous people."

"Now that he's been tied up, the police are probably in dire straits. This is Denver, not a small town that doesn't shit."

"I asked He Hongsheng to tell me the number of people and the exact location. Before they arrive, we just need to block the people in the room and we'll be done."

"and then?"

"Then let's run? Wait here for the mounted police? Just leave the rest to them."

"Do you believe in their abilities so much?"

"Me? I believe it. Anyway, I can't beat them. Otherwise, I will directly call their police station. What are you doing in hiding?" After Chen Jianqiu finished speaking, he stared at the cabin again.

Hernandez in the room was extremely uncomfortable. There were no windows at the back of the room, and there was another person in the front who wanted to die just hearing the name.

His men tried several times to rush out, but as soon as they stretched out their hands, they were shot accurately and quickly, so they could only hide in the corner with their hands covered.

Hernandez prevented his men from continuing to challenge.

Anyway, they couldn't get in. This room was originally built for rest. From time to time, people from the university would come to replenish water and food. He didn't believe that the fugitives outside had such patience.

Just spend it like that.

……

Officer Fultz is very proud of the police badge on his chest. His team is not affiliated with the Denver Police Department, but an independent patrol. They are not as famous as the Texas Mounted Police next door, but they are all A ruthless character who kills without batting an eyelid.

He has wiped out countless criminal gangs, and he is regarded as the elite of the elite law enforcement teams in this state.

They received a call for help from the Denver Police Department today. Lockhart's death even alarmed the governor. In broad daylight, it was clear that someone shot and killed a professor at the University of Denver in the city of Denver.

And now, an hour ago, someone kidnapped Holmes, a well-known geologist at the University of Denver. This is a provocation and a great shame.

The governor ordered that Mr. Holmes must be brought back intact, and the criminal gangs should be dealt a severe blow to let them understand that he himself has zero tolerance for vicious crimes.

The Denver Police Department was devastated, and they had no confidence in handling such a thing, so they turned to Fultz and his mounted police officers for help.

This kind of thing is still not allowed to Fultz. He led more than [-] mounted policemen under his command and rushed to the University of Denver like flying.

Hernandez and his subordinates confronted each other in this small room for most of the day.

They took turns guarding the window and the door, firing a few shots outside from time to time, and then got a few responses from the other side.

But when they fired a few shots into the woods through the window again, there was no response.

"Head, it seems to be going the other way." There was joy under his hands.

"You're laughing ass."

Hernandez felt ashamed. If this kind of thing got out, he wouldn't have to hang out in the West in the future.

He asked his subordinates to escort Holmes out the door first.

No shots were fired.

He walked out with a bent waist, and carefully checked whether there was an ambush by Chen Jianqiu in the opposite woods.

nobody.

really gone?
"I can only wrong you, Mr. Holmes." Hernandez took out a binding rope from the saddle bag and tied Holmes up.

At this time, Holmes was already a bit hopeless.

Bundle it, tired.

Just when the old Mexican was about to tie the heavily tied Holmes to the horse and take them away together.

Suddenly, not far away, the sound of horseshoes came from the road in the direction of the University of Denver.

Hernandez narrowed his eyes, and when he saw clearly the group of people on horseback, his expression changed drastically.

"Go! It's the mounted police!"

But it was too late, and Officer Fultz had seen him, and Holmes behind his horse.

Now that the kidnapping matter is confirmed, it is these gangsters who are making trouble.

"Shoot, don't hit the hostages!" Fultz gave the order, and he himself raised the lever rifle in his hand.

Hernandez and his men fled frantically, and they wanted to run into the Rocky Mountain.

But the experienced Fultz would not give them this chance at all, and he allocated half of his troops to intercept.

The mounted police are well-trained, and all of them are the elite of the Colorado State Police, some are retired cavalry, and their favorite thing to do is to send these gangsters to hell.

Soon, Hernandez's subordinates fell off their horses one by one. Some of them were shot dead directly, and some were tied up by the surrounding mounted police.

On the mounted police side, except for one who was thrown off because the horse was hit, the others were unharmed.

As it was getting late, Hernandez drove his horse and fled forward. He looked around and found that he was the only one left.

"Damn it! Damn it!" He swore in Spanish and English, cursing Chen Jianqiu, Adam, and Lockhart.

"Whoosh." A bullet flew over from behind, Hernandez hurriedly leaned on the horse's back, and the bullet passed by.

He looked back, and Fultz and several mounted policemen had already caught up.

The two people immediately above him were obviously slower than the one behind him. If this continues, they will be killed sooner or later.

Forget it, let's live first, let's talk about the treasure later.

He pushed Holmes down, then turned around and shot Fultz with his backhand.

Poor Holmes fell to the ground and rolled over in pain.

Officer Fultz, who was chasing after him, heard the gunshots and swayed to dodge.

The bullet caught him in the arm, and the officer clamped down on his horse to keep himself from falling.

The subordinates behind hurried forward to observe his injuries, while the other person went to untie the unlucky Holmes on the ground.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the old Mexican slapped his ass hard and disappeared from their sight.

The next day, the pages of Denver's major newspapers were filled with the wounded Officer Fultz:
"The criminal gang that killed and kidnapped in Denver recently, except for the leader, has been wiped out, the hostages have been rescued, and Officer Fultz was heroically wounded."

Mr. Holmes walked out of the police station slowly. He is not in a good condition now, with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and blood at the corners of his mouth. His appearance, which did not match his age, looks even more vicissitudes.

He declined the protection offered by the Denver Police Department, and just wanted to find a place to be alone.

When he was squatting by the lake on the outskirts of the city, washing his face with the lake water.

A familiar face appeared in the reflection in the lake.

The face is grinning.

"Be safe, Uncle Holmes,"
