Gao Guang looked miserable, his whole body was in pain, bruised and swollen, and his arms hurt so much that he couldn't lift them.

He was shot nine times, none of the shots were fatal because Gao Guang was wearing two layers of bulletproof vests, so he actively took the shots, using the bulletproof vests to cover the positions with all his might.

As a result, Gao Guang almost died, but he didn't.

Gao Guang lay on the floor, unable to move, as if all the strength in his body had been drained. Although he wasn't shot, he felt like he was dying.

The police outside the elevator swarmed up, and when they saw the elevator full of blood, one of the police officers blurted out, "What happened?"

Gao Guang couldn't remember what had just happened, but he couldn't forget what was most important.

"Suspect, notify the leading officer, say the suspect has been found, call an ambulance for me, thank you."

Gao Guang felt like his bones were about to break, his body was about to fall apart. Thanks to the bulletproof vest, his torso was not seriously injured, but his head, arms, legs, and back were all in pain at the moment, and his eyes were blurred, as if he was about to faint.

"Boss, there's another exchange of fire here, and there's a... which unit are you from?"

Gao Guang was helped up by someone, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Informant!"

The police officers were all surprised at the word "informant," and then one of them said in surprise, "An informant can... identify a suspect, right."

"Protect the scene, there's surveillance, pull up the surveillance footage."

Gao Guang was helped up and walked out of the elevator, and naturally someone took a picture of the man and sealed off the elevator car for evidence collection.

A police officer looked at Gao Guang and said very seriously, "Is the surveillance camera broken?"

Gao Guang said the surveillance was broken, so it was likely to be broken now, but if Gao Guang said it wasn't broken, then the footage inside could be used as evidence.

It seemed that the people here were Walton's good friends, no, they should be people Walton could trust. Otherwise, how could they handle this case.

"It's not broken! The surveillance is intact."

Whether Ryan can be convicted or not, the video here is crucial. How could such important evidence be broken.

If Ryan escapes, he has a way to resolve his crisis, but if he dies here, he has no way to turn the situation around.

Walton hurried in, and he was very excited when he saw Gao Guang, but when he rushed up and saw the bullet holes in Gao Guang's chest, he was obviously frightened.

"Oh, my God!" But Walton immediately remembered that Gao Guang was wearing two bulletproof vests, so he patted Gao Guang's arm heavily and said loudly, "Thank my bulletproof vest! Hurry, thank me..."

"Ah, it hurts!"

Gao Guang screamed, "My arm is broken, it's broken."

Walton was taken aback. "Is your arm really broken? Take him to the hospital, quickly!"

The rest of the matter was left to Walton. Gao Guang had to go. He whispered to Walton, "Where are Mike and John? Any news?"

"John..."

Walton looked hesitant, and Gao Guang was so scared that his heart was about to jump out. He trembled and said, "Is he dead? Tell me, is John dead?"

Walton said to a few police officers, "Brothers, take care of the things here first, I'll talk to him for a few minutes."

Walton pulled Gao Guang aside and whispered, "John is in great danger. The bullet entered his abdomen from the side of his bulletproof vest where there was no bulletproof plate, and it went through his right side, making a mess of his entire abdominal cavity. But there's also good news, the sniper used armor-piercing bullets, and the bullet almost went straight through the abdominal cavity without tumbling, so he shouldn't die, but his abdominal cavity is full of feces, uh, his bladder is also pierced, but it's okay, his condition is stabilizing now, and his colleagues on the way to the hospital will inform me of the latest developments at any time."

"Shot in the abdomen again?"

Gao Guang was extremely astonished, and Walton whispered, "Again, what does that mean?"

"Nothing, what about Mike and Francisco?"

"Mike's bulletproof vest was pierced, the bullet pierced the outer bulletproof plate, pierced the level three protective plate that came with the bulletproof vest, and the residual kinetic energy broke four of his ribs, then it entered his left chest cavity, it's like being hit by a blunt object, don't worry about him."

Walton sighed and said, "Francisco is almost the same, he was shot in the chest, the bullet pierced the bulletproof plate, and made a long wound on his chest, the bullet has basically lost its kinetic energy, he's bleeding from his lungs, very dangerous, but he definitely won't die, you can rest assured."

The 8.6mm Lapua Magnum bullet is very powerful, but in the competition between shield and spear, the shield is now winning, that is, the protective effect of the bulletproof vest is already enough to withstand most of the damage from individual weapons.The level IV bulletproof vest is enough to block the shooting of 7.62mm NATO bullets at close range. As for the M43 intermediate bullets and 5.56mm NATO bullets, the level IV bulletproof vest can completely block them. As for pistol bullets, they are not even worth mentioning.

It is precisely because bulletproof vests are becoming more common that the military has higher requirements for the power of bullets. Therefore, in recent years, sniper rifles with a caliber of 8.6mm have become popular, because the weight of sniper rifles with this caliber has not increased much, and can be borne by individual soldiers.

Mike and Francisco are both wearing level IV bulletproof vests, but their bulletproof plates are reinforced, larger and thicker than ordinary ones. However, they still couldn't stop the sniper's bullet, because the sniper actually used armor-piercing bullets.

But the bulletproof vest still resisted the vast majority of the bullet's power. Otherwise, if the residual kinetic energy of the bullet is slightly larger, Mike and Francisco would die even faster, because the bullet would become unstable after penetrating the bulletproof vest, causing a larger wound on the body.

It's fortunate that the sniper did not use a 12.7mm caliber sniper rifle. This is a great relief.

In general, it's not that Mike and Francisco are lucky, it's that their bulletproof vests were not bought in vain.

The one who is truly lucky is John.

Don't just look at John being injured again, but this time the injury is really good, as if it was carefully selected.

If he was shot in the chest, John would be dead for sure. His bulletproof vest can't compare to Mike's. If his arm is shot, it will be broken, and if his leg is shot, it will be broken. Even if he doesn't die from excessive bleeding, he will be disabled.

Only if he is shot in the stomach, and not in the front, but from the side, with an armor-piercing bullet making a hole in his stomach, can he survive.

Gao Guang didn't know whether to be happy or sad for John.

Not dying is definitely a good thing, but John's stomach has become a danger zone. If he gets shot in the stomach, he will have to undergo a lot of suffering.

Seeing a relaxed smile appearing on Gao Guang's face, Walton whispered, "What's going on here? Why is Ryan only coming out now? What happened inside?"

"I think this person should be him, but I'm not very sure, so I wanted to draw my gun first, control him, and then confirm his identity. But as soon as I made a move, he attacked. This guy can really fight. I'm completely no match for him in hand-to-hand combat."

Gao Guang shuddered, and whispered, "I don't remember the details of the fight. There is surveillance in the elevator, you can check the video."

"Um, you go to the hospital first, I'll handle this."

When it's not time to discuss the details, Gao Guang is only concerned about the safety of John and the others, so he first roughly understands the situation.

At this moment, a police officer who was searching the body of the dead man in the elevator suddenly said, "Uh oh, it looks like we have trouble."

He took out an ID from the man's pocket, it was from the FBI.

The police officer looked at Walton, and Walton waved his hand, saying, "Let me see."

Walton hurried over, took the ID, glanced at it, and then said confidently, "That's right, it's him, the mastermind behind the criminal group. Collect the evidence."

Walton looked at Gao Guang, nodded very excitedly.

Confirmed, this person is Ryan.

Walton put the ID into a plastic bag and sealed it. Then he hurried to Gao Guang, and whispered, "It's him, Ryan. He only has one ID, no gun. He didn't bring a gun to avoid being searched. If we let him go, no one will even know he was here."

Gao Guang whispered, "Won't he disguise himself to avoid surveillance?"

"As long as he's alive, the surveillance here will disappear. He's worried about being caught by us at the scene. Wait a minute, I understand!" Walton suddenly realized, he was extremely excited, "I understand why the sniper took the initiative to shoot and attract attention, and I also understand Ryan's plan."

"What?"

Walton said hurriedly, "Ryan must know that our real target is actually him. So when he found himself blocked, he had the sniper fire to attract attention. When we had to take out the sniper, he took the opportunity to escape. No, wait a minute..."

Walton slapped his hand, "The sniper didn't commit suicide, he was killed by Ryan. I was wondering who would be so great as to sacrifice himself to help Ryan escape. If it was Ryan who killed the sniper, then fired his own gun, and then pretended to commit suicide, when we relaxed our vigilance, he would mix into the crowd and leave. Even if he couldn't escape, this kind of serious case would require more police force, and the FBI would also come here. By then, even if he had to reveal his identity, he wouldn't have to worry about being killed by us."

Although there is no evidence to prove it yet, Gao Guang feels that this is definitely the case.Worton was not good at commanding on the scene, but his brain was still functioning well. He quickly connected some clues and soon came up with a very reasonable inference.

Gao Guang couldn't help but say, "You're right, it's very likely to be like this."

Worton smiled and said, "The sniper used a pistol to commit suicide, but the sniper probably never even used a pistol. So by examining the sniper's wound, checking the angle of the bullet entry, the distance from the muzzle, and whether there are any residual particles of pistol bullet propellant on the sniper's hand, we will soon know the answer."

---On a side note---

I was exhausted yesterday, and today I feel like I haven't rested at all. I really can't write anymore. Depending on how I feel, if I have the energy tonight, I'll write another chapter. If I really can't write anymore, then today will just be one chapter.
