North American Gunslinger Detective

Returning to Federal Plaza, Parker was still interrogated by Peter. After that, Jones applied for an arrest warrant and Rachel was brought back. As expected, as Peter thought, the painter Rachel also participated in the plan.

The rest of the finishing work was completed by Diana, including the case report. Peter said before that Diana handled everything he didn't do. As for Jimmy, well, even if Jimmy volunteered, Peter wouldn't leave it to him.

He will do it. The case report is a very important thing. It is too luxurious to let Jimmy come to practice. If something goes wrong, Peter and the others will be the unlucky ones in the end.

After completing this case, it was the weekend, and the apartment residents left early. Jimmy contacted the apartment manager in advance, hired cleaning staff to clean the apartment, and then moved upstairs to Jones.

Speaking of which, this bachelor's apartment is much smaller than Jones's semi-basement, but the rent is basically the same, so it's quite a disadvantage to live there, but Jimmy doesn't think too much about it for the time being.

Compared with before, Jimmy's current job is indeed a challenge for him. After tidying up the apartment, Jimmy went downstairs to buy groceries. In the evening, he invited Peter, Diana and Jones to have dinner together as a housewarming celebration, because he knew in advance that he was moving.

time, so I had already greeted them before. Peter would also bring his wife over, but Jimmy would be busy for a while.

In the past in Little Rock, Jimmy basically didn't have the habit of inviting others to dinner. This time when he came to a new place, he always wanted to express that the reason why he didn't go out to eat was not because Jimmy was stingy, but because as a Chinese in his previous life, he wanted to treat guests.

It is obviously more friendly to do this kind of thing at home.

For this reason, Jimmy had to prepare ingredients in advance. Because the room was small, Jimmy made an appointment with Jones in advance and needed to use his kitchen and living room. If Jimmy had rented an apartment before, there would definitely not be such a problem.

One thing to say, Chinatown in Manhattan is really good. At least everything Jimmy wants can be bought, such as dark soy sauce, cooking wine, onion and ginger, fennel and aniseed, and tempeh. This time Jimmy came up with his trump card, a super sweet version of sugar-colored braised rice.

Meat, there is also a portion of tomato beef brisket. This is a lot to make, so Jimmy divides it into two portions and puts one portion in the refrigerator until it is heated up and served with rice tomorrow, which saves cooking.

Two large dishes plus two stir-fry dishes, one egg drop soup, and one vegetable salad, and you're done. Of course, you still have to turn off the smoke alarm in advance, otherwise the fire truck is probably going to come by this time.

Jones watched the whole process while Jimmy was cooking, and then said that he would never go out in the kitchen again. As long as he could fry eggs, he didn't ask for too much if he could live a comfortable life.

Jimmy also used to improve the food by himself when he lived in his apartment in Little Rock. Relatively speaking, there was nothing wrong with these home-cooked meals, except that they took a long time.

In the evening, Peter came over with his wife Elizabeth. Elizabeth was not tall, about 165cm, with a round face, long brown and black hair, and she looked a little fat.

Jimmy came to the door to greet him: "Hi, Peter, Elizabeth."

Peter: "Hi, Jimmy."

Jimmy reached out to take the wine from Peter's hand and let them in, of course it was Jones' room.

Peter: "Jimmy, I didn't expect you to cook."

Jimmy: "Hahaha, living alone requires some life skills. You guys sit down first and I'll clean up the kitchen."

Peter and Elizabeth sat on the sofa, watching Jimmy finishing up his work in Jones' kitchen, and Jones also came out of the bedroom.

The dishes, plates, and cutlery have been placed on the table in advance, and the rice in the rice cooker is also ready. However, the people are not here yet, and the dishes are still covered with plates.

Jones didn't have so many tableware and kitchen utensils here. Jimmy counted the tableware and kitchen utensils here in Jones and bought some more to meet his needs. Of course, what he bought would be taken to his apartment later.

After a while, Diana also came over, everyone sat down, and Jimmy lifted the plates covering the dishes one by one.

"Oh" Diana shouted first, well, apart from Elizabeth, no one else sitting here probably knows how to cook. Each dish was divided into portions, and everyone was chatting casually while eating.

Sure enough, the most popular ones are the sweet version of braised pork and tomato beef brisket. They like both sweet and sour dishes.

But Jimmy's favorite is twice-cooked pork. When making braised pork, he specially reserved a piece of cooked meat and fried a portion of twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts. Although the stove's firepower was insufficient, it was okay. This dish didn't look very good.

Others were not very interested, and Jimmy basically finished the whole plate.

By the way, everyone at the table uses forks and spoons, and only Jimmy uses chopsticks and spoons, which seems quite inconsistent. There is no way, Jimmy still likes to use chopsticks, and the fork always feels awkward to use.

After dinner, Elizabeth and Diana were chatting on the sofa, while Jimmy and the three of them left the room and went outside to the sidewalk.

Jones and Jimmy were smoking, and Peter was just watching. Although he didn't smoke, he didn't say anything about Jimmy and Jones smoking.

Jimmy: "Peter, I have been thinking about one thing these past two days. The files I looked at before were usually commercial cases and art cases, but they were all relatively large cases, and the art works were all well-known or valuable.

Gao, do ordinary cases like the theft of Denley Gallery fall under our jurisdiction?"

Peter: "Well, in principle, we can take over all art theft cases. It's just that some small cases have been handled by the NYPD, so we don't need to take over them. But they will transfer the cases with high value or high profile.

Come here and let us handle it. As for this case, it is not a big one here."

Jimmy: "Is there no other reason?"

Peter glanced at Jimmy: "I'm here to train you, so you can get familiar with our style of doing things first."

Jones: "Hahahaha, Jimmy, do you have any other ideas? Don't worry, we were all the same when we came in, looking for some small cases to deal with. Otherwise, the NYPD will take care of this case."

Jimmy nodded, "Most of the cases I handled before were security cases. This is really the first time I've been exposed to this kind of art theft case. The cases I used to cooperate with FBI agents were all involving drugs and violence.

."

Jones: “Have you worked with us before?”

Jimmy: "Well, before I came to the FBI, I worked as a county police officer for two years and worked with the FBI, DEA, and USSS."

Peter raised his eyebrows and said nothing, but Jones was surprised, "You have a lot of experience, Jimmy, did anything interesting happen?"

Jimmy thought for a moment, "Well, it seems like there's no special case. Does it count if the Vice President was almost killed in a bombing?"

Jones: "F**K!"
