Chapter 158 - Route To the Center of the City!
In the livestream, when they saw how the squad leader was planning everything, they immediately started a new round of discussion.
Obviously, no one expected the squad leader to be so skilled in commanding.
After these orders were given, a large capture net was immediately deployed.
The robbers who were about to escape were surrounded.
He seemed to be stronger than the previous commander.
Because of this, the audiences started to worry about Jon.
After all, the current situation was not optimistic for the robbers.
At this moment, Jon and the other three were driving on South Freedom Road.
In the temporary command room, all the deployment of the squad leader was naturally transmitted to Jon’s earpiece through a bug.
Jon could hear some of the police’s actions clearly.
“Turn around at the next intersection.” Jon sat in the passenger seat and calmly said to Brown Williams who was driving.
Since the squad leader had already set up a large police force on South Freedom Road, Jon naturally wouldn’t walk into the trap.
“Okay.” Brown Williams replied crisply.
Then, he turned around at the next intersection according to Jon’s request.
At this time, Jon held a map in his hand and looked at the route that he had planned.
Before the start of the exercise, Jon had led four people and walked around all the roads in the city more than three times.
On the map in Jon’s hand, Jon marked all of the road with surveillance cameras and high traffic.
Now, Jon had a map like this, and he could keep track of the police.
Even if their car were in the sight of the police, Jon was confident he could get away with it.
Of course, now was the time to test Brown Williams.
Before the Pennsylvania drill, Jon had chosen Brown Williams because of his strong driving ability.
He was a super driver.
“Boss, what should we do next?” at this time, Brown turned to look at Jon.
Jon put the map on the control panel in front of the car, pointed at one of the roads and said, “Take this road.”
Brown looked at the road and could not help but frown.
Obviously, he did not expect Jon to let him take this road.
Because this road was the road leading to the city center!
“Boss, are you sure we should take this road? This road leads to the city center. Even though it is not rush hour, there will definitely be a lot of traffic.” Brown asked.
However, his movements did not stop. As soon as he finished speaking, he had already changed directions according to Jon’s request.
After all, they had already agreed beforehand that Jon was the leader of this drill.
They only needed to unconditionally obey Jon’s words.
However, Brown was still a little curious.
“Traffic jams is a two-edged sword. It’s not good for us, but it’s also not good for the police as well.”
“You’re a super driver. Now is the time for you to show off. Moreover, you’re a robber now, so you can race in the city without any scruples.”
“But the police may estimate all kinds of things, so they don’t dare to race in the city. So, you can use this to overtake this situation to leave the police behind and increase their pressure.” Jon looked at Brown and said slowly.
Escape to a section with fewer cars, this was a good choice, but it was not a suitable choice for now.
This was because a section with less traffic might be conducive to the robber’s escape, but it was more conducive to the police’s pursuit.
The police could even set up roadblocks in front of the section where the robber’s car would pass, and they could also forcibly intercept the car through a tire breaker because there were very few cars on the road.
Therefore, the police who pursuing the robbers from behind could also be more unscrupulous.
Under the double attack from the front and the back, no matter how good Brown’s driving skills were, there was a very high probability that he could not escape. Unless he could drive the car into the sky.
However, the situation was different when they went to the city center where there were more cars.
There would definitely be a lot of cars on this kind of traffic trunk line.
The police would also be very careful when chasing after them.
After all, if they were to race recklessly in the city, they might lose control and cause accidents if they were not careful. The police would not be able to race recklessly like the robbers.
In addition, there were too many cars on this type of road. They could not set up or barricade a tire breaker in front of the intersection.
Because once they set up a barricade or used a tire breaker, they would not only stop the robbers’ vehicle but also adversely affect the traffic.
Therefore, after considering various aspects, Jon finally decided to escape to a busy road with more cars in the city center.
“Okay, boss, today I’ll let you experience the pleasure of racing.” Hearing Jon’s words, Brown said excitedly.
After all, as a super driver, he must be very obsessed with cars.
But as a police officer, there was very few occasions to let him drive the car like a racer.
Moreover, even during the last drill, they didn’t have a proper car for him to drive.
There wasn’t any chance for him to perform.
Now, this opportunity had finally arrived.
He was naturally very excited.
“Leon, can you think of a way to hack into the signal light system in the city?” Jon turned his head and looked at Leon Evans, who was sitting in the back row, and asked.
His team of robbers were all elites of the Pennsylvania State Police Department.
And Leon was a computer genius. Although he wasn’t a professional hacker, Jon estimated that his IT was very capable.
“I’ll give it a try.” Leon replied and then began to fiddle with the computer in his hands.
“Traffic lights are done using PCL. The control program needs to be written in debug mode. When it is activated, it is in the enabled mode.”
“When it is enabled, there is no way to change the time of the traffic lights.”
“And if we want to control the traffic lights frequently, the problem we need to solve is to hack into the traffic department’s mainframe and switch this area of traffic lights to debug mode.”
“As long as the traffic department’s mainframe is connected to the internet, I have a way to hack into their mainframe and switch the traffic lights from enabling mode to debugging mode.”
“I need some time.” Leon replied to Jon as he operated his computer.”
“Boy, you’ve said so much. What are you talking about?” Will Smith couldn’t help but ask and Jon didn’t respond when Leon’s voice fell.
