North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 151 Go with the flow

Jimmy was indeed thinking about the disaster, but he couldn't stop it. After all, the scope of this kind of thing was too wide. From the previous world, we could see 20 years of history. Many major things were related to this disaster. It could be said that the whole world

Because of this incident, the world has been involved in a historical process full of uncertainty.

First of all, this is the first time since the Cold War that the United States has been severely damaged by external forces. With the end of the Cold War, the United States has become the de facto global leader and is arrogant. Now it is suddenly slapped in the face. Oh, no, it should be

I was slapped three times in a row, it really hurt a little bit, mainly because I lost face.

The United States' foreign policy and defense strategy all underwent a major turn after this, restarting the war, turning the world from the shadow of the Cold War to terrorism and counter-terrorism tasks, and the entire Middle East has since entered the sequence of wars, including Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria, and Yemen.

, the wars in these places are more or less related to this policy shift.

Major adjustments were also made domestically. The Department of Homeland Security was later established, and the NSA, a non-existent department, was also officially authorized to monitor domestic communications and Internet information. Personal privacy has been transferred from secretly obtained to aboveboard surveillance.

The domestic economy has been hit hard, and the stock market has plummeted, especially in the aviation industry. For a long time, everyone's choice for travel has been ground transportation. Airlines have suffered heavy losses and laid off a large number of layoffs.

Other industries are not having a good time either. Banks, insurance, securities and other financial industries have suffered heavy losses. The sharp drop in the stock market has also caused a chain reaction. A large number of stocks have been sold, further driving the stock market down. Under the chain reaction, people from all walks of life have been implicated.

Come in.

Jimmy only knows the general situation, but he really can't remember the specifics. You can't embarrass a person who has been working in a semi-closed industry for a long time, right? He is not a god and knows everything.

However, Jimmy has other plans. There are also opportunities to make money in this plummeting industry. Although he does not have much funds, if he works hard to turn it around once or twice, he may have a chance.

After two days of work, Jimmy applied for a rotational break because the investigation of the bombing case had been concluded and Jimmy was no longer disturbed. He came to Camlite Bar after get off work.

Oh, by the way, the bar was not involved. In fact, the USSS had no clue at all as to who leaked the Vice President's route. This is why Jimmy, who participated in the route inspection, was questioned several times.

However, in Jimmy's view, their efforts were completely in vain. If there are multiple streets to choose from in the city, and the attacker cannot determine the specific route, there will only be three roads to Woodson in the suburbs. It is not difficult to guess,

There are only two or three small towns on the entire route, so the destination can be basically determined.

Instead of embarrassing Jimmy, it is better to check on their own side why the final destination cemetery was leaked. You must know that digging holes in advance and preparing a camouflage net is too targeted.

The only mistake the attackers made was that they misjudged where the Vice President would eventually stand, so they dug the hole a little further away from their target.

The only people who can determine the final location are people close to the Vice President or people within the USSS. Generally, agents on duty may not know.

But they definitely won't conduct an internal investigation with such a big fanfare, and they can only use outsiders like Jimmy to toss it.

Fortunately, they definitely couldn't find any evidence against Jimmy and the others, so after more than a week of tossing, they retreated.

Jimmy came to the bar and said hello to Justin.

Jimmy: "Hi, Justin."

Justin: "Hey Jimmy, long time no see. Want a drink?"

Jimmy: "Of course, I'm finally out of trouble and can have a good rest."

Justin: "Congratulations, just relax."

Jimmy: "Are you okay here?"

Justin: "Of course, summer is a great time, with more guests and more fun. Enjoy it!"

Jimmy picked up the wine glass and left the bar. It seemed that Justin was not affected at all. Of course, maybe he directly rejected the last intelligence transaction.

In any case, the bombing to assassinate the Vice President was finally over, and no one on Jimmy's side was really implicated.

Jimmy was also happy to relax, but his good mood quickly disappeared.

A bartender came over and whispered to Jimmy, asking him to go to the reception room, well, that was the small private room.

Jimmy drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, gave the glass to the bartender, and walked to the small door next to the bar.

Jimmy entered the reception room, and Justin was the only one inside. He sat on the sofa, waiting for Jimmy. Jimmy sat opposite Justin, and the two of them looked at each other without exchanging a glance.

Finally, Justin spoke first: "I hope you can tell me what happened the past few days? Is there anything wrong with the big shot?"

Justin took out two gold coins from his vest pocket, put them on the coffee table, and pushed them to Jimmy.

Jimmy: "Why? This should have nothing to do with you."

Justin: "The person who contacted me last time, when I asked someone to contact me just now to confirm, I found that he had lost contact."

Jimmy glanced at the gold coin, then looked up at Justin: "Do you want information, or do you want to find out the person who contacted you?"

Justin: "Intelligence, I need to make sure that if something big happens, we will not be implicated. If there is a risk of spillover, we need to intervene in advance. Safety is very important."

Jimmy: "Have you sold any information? Recently, it involved the big shots above."

Justin: "No, I refused after talking to you."

Jimmy: "That's no problem."

Jimmy reached for the gold coin, and then said: "The route and final destination of the big shot's convoy were leaked. Someone ambushed the scene. The big shot was not injured and returned to DC smoothly."

Justin: "I need to go through it in detail, for the sake of those two gold coins."

Jimmy: "Okay, okay. The big shot's motorcade came to Little Rock without any accidents in the city. On the way to Woodson, there was a car accident and the motorcade turned onto Highway 87.

Secret Service agents spotted a suspicious vehicle on the road, and the occupants of the car were shot and killed by the agents while escaping.

There was an improvised bomb in a roadside trash can, which was discovered and defused. At the same time, a person of Middle Eastern origin who operated the wire control was captured. As far as I know, no useful information has been confessed.

Finally, at the Woodson Cemetery, two suicide bombers were ambushed in the woods in advance and put up a camouflage net. They were shot dead on the way out and detonated their explosives.

The big shot was not injured. He just checked and flew back to the airport. Several agents were slightly injured.

That's what happened. Oh, and one of the bombers was Iraqi."
