"El Croger."

"Mr. Kroger, we're investigating a silver sedan involved in a case that disappeared between these two blocks. We hope you can cooperate and let us take a look at your garage."

El Croger blinked: "What does this have to do with me?"

"No, it has nothing to do with you, we just hope to find the car and hope you can cooperate with us."

"Hold on, I'll get the remote." El gestured with his hand, covered in grey, then turned back into the house, casually closing the door behind him.

Riley didn't discover anything; he simply stood by the door waiting. Jimmy had already noticed something was off. After El entered the room, he moved his hands quickly, signaling to the people inside while also moving toward them. Soon they held weapons and positioned themselves in the living room, aiming at the door.

Jimmy whispered, "Riley, don't you think his reaction is off? Guys, watch your backs." He was the first to take cover to one side, and upon hearing Jimmy's words, the others also moved away from the doorway to stand aside.

Jimmy saw what was happening inside the house, while Riley and the others were completely unaware that three people in the living room were already aiming guns at the door. One person walked towards the door and reached out to open it. "Let's go, I'll open the door."

El held a remote control key in his hand. Riley watched him and walked with him towards the large garage door, with the other two agents following behind. After they moved away from the doorway, the three people in the living room rushed out, firing at the spot where Riley and the others had been.

Because Jimmy had anticipated the situation, he had already drawn his Glock the moment they burst out, shouting "Watch out!" and emptied the magazine at the three men at the door.

The safety on the Glock is on the trigger, so as soon as it is drawn, pulling the trigger will fire it, barely affecting the speed of firing. As long as the finger is quick enough, a semi-automatic pistol can also empty over a dozen bullets very quickly. To avoid being too excessive, he didn't shoot conservatively this time but wasted a few bullets shooting into the walls and doors.

Obviously, the three men who rushed out chose the wrong target. They chose to attack the side where Riley and the most people were, which seemed to them the greatest threat. Jimmy had been on the left side of the house since the door was opened. When Riley and the others followed El to the right side of the garage, Jimmy didn't move at all.

Choosing the wrong target resulted in the scene unfolding now. They indeed fired their weapons but only got off a few shots and didn't have the chance to empty their magazines before all three men fell at the doorway.

The gunshots startled Riley and the others. When the shots rang out, El had already thrown himself to the ground. Since they had arranged such a sequence of gunfire, he naturally estimated the speed at which people would come out and prepared in advance to avoid the line of fire from his own men.

"Riley, are you guys okay?" Jimmy didn't look at Riley and the others. He drew the spare magazine from his holster, loaded it, and kept his gun aimed at the three men on the ground.

Riley and the others had taken cover and were ready to draw their weapons and aim, but there were no targets left.

"Catch him." Riley looked at El, rushed over, and pounced on him before he could get up, "Don't move." The others followed the nearest-principle: one moved toward Jimmy's position, and another aimed at the doorway, moving next to Riley to help restrain El and handcuff him, finding a handgun on him.

"Jimmy, are you okay?" Riley got up and looked at Jimmy, who had already advanced towards the three men lying at the door and kicked their handguns away.

Jimmy: "I'm fine. I'll check inside. Watch my back."

Since it was their first time working together and they wanted to be thorough, Jimmy walked into the house with the agent who had come to his aid. He watched the front while the other agent watched the side, scanning the house briefly.

Jimmy shouted, "It's clear, no one's left." He then holstered his Glock and walked out.

Riley came up next to Jimmy, hugged him, "Thanks, pal, you saved our lives."

"Don't mention it, that El is definitely trouble, Riley, let's go ask him." Jimmy patted Riley on the back and then broke free from his bear hug.

The three dead men at the door were left to the agent, and Jimmy and another agent came to the now standing El, "Who the hell are you?"

Jimmy looked at El, whose glasses had fallen to the floor, and the arresting agent hadn't picked them up for him. He touched the edge of El's beard, which had some irregularities due to the struggle on the ground. Jimmy rubbed his fingers against it, and a piece of the beard came off.

Jimmy: "The beard is fake, Riley, open the garage."

Riley picked up the remote control from the ground and opened the garage to reveal a silver Nissan sedan.

"Joe Coleman, we've found you," Jimmy said, glancing at the car, then to the captured Joe Coleman.

Riley, clutching the remote, exclaimed, "FXXK! He dressed up in advance." Joe Coleman's disguise wasn't perfect, probably because he never thought someone would follow so quickly. Jimmy felt his hair, noting the fake beard, but the hair was real.

"Everyone, out of the house." The agent at the door confirmed the three were dead, went back inside to check again, and suddenly shouted at Riley and the others to get out of the house, with the agent quickly running out as well.
