Meanwhile Jay had remained there in the pipes. He was tired and didn't even have the strength to stand up. Yes he leaned against the wall and slid against it panting more and more.
Yes he was letting go, he was starting to think they wouldn't find him. Or at least they wouldn't have done it in time to save his life.
He decided, however, with the last strength left to try to call again via radio.
-I'm Jay ... Help ... In the sewers ..- he said.
His voice was now an imperceptible hiss.
But luck would have it that his radio worked this time and his two colleagues who were looking for him knew that at least at that moment he was still alive.
Unfortunately, this time he didn't understand much of what he had said either.
- I'm..y ..i..ewe - was what the detectives had heard.
The first thing Antonio did was call an ambulance, they would definitely need it once he found it.
Meanwhile Halstead was moving in and out of consciousness. He was cold, he was shivering.
The temperature down there was lower than on the surface, but he was really freezing from the copious loss of blood.
Meanwhile in the Voight district before going to question the suspect he had passed by Mouse and explained the situation to him he had decided to look for Jay's phone signal hoping that he had it with him.
-Then the stains end here - Antonio told Hayley when they reached the first manhole again.
- It's not possible that I no longer bleed - Hayley said - what if they had taken a different path? -
- What do you mean? - Detective Dawson asked.
- What if they came down the manhole? - she said doubtfully.
Having said that, the detectives opened the manhole and prepared to go down.
As they prepared to check the sewer pipes, the phone of
Antonio started to vibrate and the senior detective smiled as he read Mouse's name on the display.
It was certainly good news, at least he hoped it was.
- Hey Mouse news? - he asked as soon as he answered the call.
-Yes, I tracked his cell phone signal. It's weak, but it's there. - said the technician.
- Where is it? - he asked with a big smile on his lips looking at his colleague.
-He is very close to you, a little further down towards the park. Mouse explained.
- Thank you - answered Antonio - did you call the ambulance?
- Yes, they should be almost there - replied the other.
Detective Dawson joined her colleague and together they lit the torches and continued the search.
The smell that came from there was nauseating.
They had to hurry to find him. They didn't have much time left
