Use the 'green bullet' to track him down.
Beatty wanted to be killed. Also, Guy didn't want to go to jail. And Beatty found out about Faber and would arrest him, so Guy was protecting himself and Faber.
Beatty pretty much knows everything. He was going to find out about Faber, he knew about Montag's books and all of that whole thing. If Beatty hadn't been murdered he would have arrested Montag, found Faber, and stopped the entire operation.
Beatty blamed Montag's neighbor, Professor Faber, for influencing his use of illegal books. Beatty believed that Faber had turned Montag against society and the fire department by encouraging him to read and think critically.
After killing Beatty, Montag flees and seeks refuge with a group of intellectuals and rebels who have memorized books in order to preserve their content. He joins them in their mission to pass on the knowledge contained in books to future generations.

Yes, in Ray Bradbury's novel "Fahrenheit 451," the protagonist, Montag, kills Captain Beatty in self-defense after Beatty taunts him and tries to burn him with a flamethrower. This act symbolizes Montag's turning point in rejecting the oppressive society and embracing knowledge and critical thinking.
Im pretty sure to Faber's house, then to the railroad where he meets Granger.
Montag killed Beatty because he was mad at him. Montag realized after that Beatty wanted to die.
Guy Montag from "Fahrenheit 451" is curious, conflicted, and rebellious. He starts out as a conformist but ultimately questions the oppressive society he lives in and seeks knowledge and truth, even at great personal risk.
Montag killed Beatty because he was going to be arrested for having books, because Montag was through with Beatty pushing him around all of the time and forcing him to burn down his own house, before Beatty was killed, he was making fun of Montag and trying to get Montag anry at Beatty (almost as if Beatty wanted to be killed), and because Beatty was going to have Faber killed. All of this enraged Guy Montag, and all of the emotion he was feeling finally burst through as he burnt Beatty, killing him.
Faber reads to Montag because he reatins knowledge even when heis sleeping. and Faber himself finds the words of the bible comforting and helps himself be assured that he is doing the right thing in rebelling against the government and the mindlessness of mass culture by keeping the books and saving the material.
