Chapter 4: Stop the case.
After Nick and Judy found out what their attacker was they immediately took the robot to Dr. Revels. At this moment Nick, Judy, and Dr. Revels are in a forensics science room in the ZPD. They are standing on the right side of the robot.
"So doc can you tell us what this is?" Nick asked Dr. Revels.
"I did some tests on this thing. One thing is for certain it's completely a robot." Revels responded. Nick just raised his eyebrow at Dr. Revels. "Also, I did some examinations on it, and found some blood of Officer Taranto on his left paw. It's safe to assume this is the robot who kidnapped him." Reveals told Nick and Judy.
"Can you download his memory, and see where this thing took him?" Judy asked.
"I already have but, there is a problem." Reveals said before directing them to a computer. Reveals pressed the enter button showing that the coding of the robots memory is military coded. Before Nick could say anything Nick got a call on his phone he immediately answered. Nick with an angry face turned to Judy, Dr. Revels after hanging up his phone.
"The two cops that were sent to the location of the delivery found a warehouse there. When they tried to enter a bomb went off. Both were found dead on the scene." Nick told Judy, and Dr. Revels.
For a moment Judy lowered her ears with a shocked face after learning what happened. Then she recovered put her ears back in the air. "Whoever did this they will be arrested for this?" Judy said with a furious face.
"That is a promise Judy. Whoever it is they will face justice." Nick replied.
"I know who's doing this!" Reveals said. Nick and Judy looked at Dr. Revels with a "what" face. "I've seen this engineering before when I was at the World Science Community. A brilliant White Weasel scientist named John Overhill designed ingenuity like this. However he was arrested for illegal genetics testing." Revels informed Nick and Judy.
"Where is John now?" Judy asked Revels.
"After he was arrested he was sent to federal prison." Revels responded.
"Not anymore he escaped." Bongo said while standing in door way. "I saw the designs of that thing, and I knew it was him."
"How do you know this chief?" Nick asked.
"Because I was the one who arrested him. I had a friend in the F.B.I. who looked at his crimes. He determined he was too dangerous for a normal prison. So they sent him to a maximum security prison. However he found out a way through the sewers. I want him found ASAP. Before he kidnaps, or hurts anymore cops am I understood?" He told Nick and Judy with a serious face.
"Yes sir!" Nick and Judy said together in sink.
After that talk with Dr. Revels, and Bogo Judy and Nick went straight back to the car. When they both got in the car Judy hit the automatic lock on the doors.
Nick turned to Judy with a confused face. "What are you doing? We have leads to follow." Nick said.
"When that robot attacked us you hit him with the car." Judy replied.
"So I was worried about. I thought you be grateful that I saved your life." Nick said.
"I am but, you went overboard when you saved my life. You could have been charged with murder if he wasn't a robot." Judy said.
"I'm sorry if I was scared of losing my partner." Nick said with angry face.
"We've been partners for two months. In that time you could make some unneeded emotional attachments." Judy replied to Nick.
"Excuse me? So what if my feelings for you drove to run over that robot!" Nick said with a mild voice.
"We have to keep this job professional. That's all I'm saying. So next time don't do that again. If you can't then perhaps we should change partners." Judy said.
Nick with a disgusted angry faced snarled, and got out of the car. Just before he slammed the door shut he said "fine we want to keep this professionally then you can go to the leads yourself."
Judy followed her leads. She went straight to the World Science Community that is 45 miles outside of Zootopia. There she met a Black Pig in a professor outfit who is the headmaster of the school.
"Excuse me headmaster I've come to ask a few questions about one of your former students." Judy told the headmaster.
"Sure who is it?" the headmaster asked.
"John Overhill escaped prison, killed two officers, and is possibly responsible for many kidnappings." Judy replied.
"There's not much I can tell. But, it does explain why we have been missing parts for the robotics team." the headmaster told Judy.
"You've been missing parts for the robotics lab?" Judy asked.
"Yea we found the trucks but, not the parts. The trucks were completely torn apart by something really strong." the headmaster told Judy.
"I won't a list of everything that is missing, and any files you have on him." Judy demanded.
"No problem officer Hopps." the headmaster replied.
Judy carried a huge box of files over her head, and placed it in the passenger seat. On her way back to the police station she could not stop thinking about that conversation she had with Nick. It circled her mind over, and over. Even though she thinks it's a good idea she is in absolute guilt for some reason.
When she got back to the station it was 7:30 P.M. Judy put the files in her office for tomorrow to look through. She went to go find Nick but, he wasn't anywhere to be found. So she went to Clawhauser to see if he knew where Nick is. All Clawhauser knew is that Nick left exactly at 6, and he did not look happy. Judy took the train to his place. She called him at least 4 different times with no answer. Finally she reached Nick apartment. However the door was busted in half, and the inside was torn up. Judy grabbed her gun and entered slowly. In the kitchen there was a note stabbed with a knife on the fridge. It had a picture of Nick muzzled, and beaten. On the letter it said "drop the case, or he dies." Judy then dropped her gun, and covered her mouth the moment she started crying.
