A Bumpy Road to Power Chapter 514:

"Were you at the scene back then?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Irving Pace shook his head and said, "It was Deputy Chief and Criminal Police Captain Jamie Ford who was commanding at the scene. The order to fire was issued by him."

"Was the command compliant?"

"Compliant, given the sudden situation at the ti. To prevent Enzo Sawyer from shooting again, Jamie Ford issued the order for a forceful entry. Two criminal police officers rushed in and engaged in a gunfight with Enzo Sawyer. The final result was that Enzo Sawyer was shot dead."

After the incident occurred.

The disciplinary commission, public security bureau, and the procuratorate mobilized.

They conducted a thorough investigation into Enzo Sawyer's circumstances.

In his ho, they found nurous IOUs, amounting to over four hundred thousand.

This important discovery basically confird Enzo Sawyer's motive for the robbery.

Listening to this, the case seed rational and flawless.

But why did Fabian Vincent claim there was a problem with this case?

He furrowed his brow and asked, "What kind of person was Enzo Sawyer usually?"

Irving Pace pondered for a while and said, "How should I put it? I don't know how others evaluate him, but I have a good impression of him. He's very serious about handling cases and tasks, considered a good comrade."

Dirk Carter exhaled deeply.

He said, "Alright, I think I understand it now. For the rest, I'll check the records. Thank you, Chief Pace."

Irving Pace scratched his head and said, "Secretary General Carter, what are you saying? If there's anything I can help with, just let know. I won't disturb your rest any longer, I'll take my leave."

"Okay, let see you off."

After Irving Pace left.

Dirk Carter sat down.

Just as he picked up a docunt, the phone rang.

Looking at the number, it was Arden Rivers calling.

"Arden, what's up?"

Dirk Carter answered the phone and asked.

Arden Rivers spoke anxiously, "Dirk, sothing's wrong. Snow is missing."

Dirk Carter was taken aback.

He asked, "When did this happen?"

Arden Rivers said, "Around eleven this morning, I found out while cooking that there was no salt. She said she wanted to help buy so, I said no need, I'll go myself. Then she said it's just a few steps and nothing would happen. After waiting half an hour, she hadn't co back. I went out to look for her, but still haven't found her. I'm helpless, which is why I'm calling you."

As she spoke.

Her voice had a sobbing tone.

Ever since he knew the beautiful woman was looking for Snow, Dirk Carter had a bad feeling. He had been urging Arden Rivers to keep an eye on Snow, not letting her go out for the ti being. Guessing that she must have been feeling suffocated for a long ti, wanting to go out for a stroll.

Thinking of this, Dirk Carter said, "Don't worry, stay at ho, don't go anywhere. I'll send The Leopard Cat over right away."

After hanging up the phone.

Dirk Carter first called The Leopard Cat.

Then he picked up Arlo Yarbrough and rushed to the police station.

Irving Pace learned that Dirk Carter was looking for soone and imdiately took him to the surveillance center.

He told them to check the surveillance around nearby streets.

"Secretary General Carter, don't worry. Although it's an old district, recently installed HD surveillance caras will provide results soon."

Irving Pace's words slightly eased Dirk Carter's concerns.

At that mont.

The officer checking surveillance stood up and spoke to Irving Pace, "Chief Pace, no relevant surveillance of the nearby area could be found."

"Nothing? What's going on?"

Irving Pace was taken aback, asking in surprise.

The officer shook his head and said, "Not sure, but around eleven this morning, all surveillance caras near Prosperity Village lost power."

All surveillance caras lost power?

That's quite the coincidence, isn't it?

Dirk Carter wasted no ti.

He spoke to Irving Pace, "Chief Pace, please investigate further, find out what went wrong, and notify of any leads imdiately."

"Alright, Secretary General Carter."

Irving Pace said.

Dirk Carter and Arlo Yarbrough left the police station.

They quickly arrived at Prosperity Village.

After eting Arden Rivers and The Leopard Cat, the four of them left the small courtyard and found a small shop near the alley.

This small shop was the closest store to their courtyard.

If Snow went out to buy salt, this shop would be the first choice.

Dirk Carter glanced upwards.

Not far from the shop, on an electric pole, there was a newly installed surveillance cara, but unfortunately, this surveillance lost power during that period.

The shop's owner was an elderly woman.

When Dirk Carter walked in, she was busy arranging stock.

"What are you buying?"

Seeing a custor enter.

The elderly woman asked warmly.

"Ma'am, hello. I'd like to ask about sothing. Around eleven this morning, did a young girl co here to buy salt?"

"A young girl buying salt..."

The elderly woman mumbled.

She seed to suddenly recall sothing.

She said, "Oh, yes, there was a young girl, thin and tall, quite pretty looking."

Dirk Carter felt a surge of hope.

He asked, "Do you know where she went after buying the salt?"

"How would I know where she went? I can't follow her around."

The elderly woman replied with a hint of annoyance.

It seed the lead had gone cold once again.

Just as Dirk Carter felt disheartened and was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a ho surveillance cara in the corner of the shop, pointing toward the direction of the door. He quickly asked, "Ma'am, is this cara operational?"

"Yes, it is."

"Can I take a look at the footage?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Seeing the elderly woman hesitate.

Dirk Carter imdiately took out two hundred in cash and said, "Ma'am, I won't look for free; here is so money for you."

With money as incentive.

Everything seed negotiable.

The elderly woman perked up, leading Dirk Carter to a computer in the back room, saying, "This cara was installed by my son. I don't know how to use it, but if you know how, you can take a look."

Seeing this, Arlo Yarbrough.

Sat down imdiately.

After typing a few keys on the keyboard, footage of Snow buying salt indeed appeared on-screen.

She went into the shop to buy salt and then headed straight back. Just when everyone thought they wouldn't gain anything, Dirk Carter suddenly pointed to the corner covered by the cara and said, "Rewind and look at that."

Arlo Yarbrough operated the system once again.

That's when everyone finally saw clearly.

A few seconds after Snow left the shop, a pair of black pants and black leather shoes suddenly followed swiftly.

Inside Dirk Carter's head, an image flashed.

The woman he had encountered a few tis, her bodyguards, all wore similar outfits.

It seed, without surprise, Snow had likely been taken away by soone working for the woman.

But capturing only an image of one leg still left them in the dark, and Koryn City was vast, surely they couldn't dig to find her.

The four of them felt sowhat discouraged.

At that mont, the ongoing footage on the screen made Dirk Carter tense up.

He saw a middle-aged man in a black suit walk in and buy a pack of cigarettes from the elderly woman.

Dirk Carter looked carefully, and realized this man was the one those black suits referred to as Uncle Jin.

He had a vivid mory of this person.

After all, when they searched the hotel, if not for Uncle Jin, Snow might have been exposed at that ti.

"He's watching the surveillance!"

Arlo Yarbrough suddenly shouted.

On the screen, the man called Uncle Jin was staring intently at the surveillance footage. Subsequently, he made a strange gesture.
