North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 249 A world with no boundaries between black and white

Ruiz: "Fxxk, it's Andre after all."

Jimmy: "His name is Andre?"

Ruiz: "Well, Andre, his father is Nicholas, the boss of the Crows." Ruiz took out his mobile phone, found a number and dialed.

Ruiz waited for the call to connect and said: "Abram, this is Ruiz from the FBI."

"Can Nicholas from the Crow be contacted?"

"Well, it's good for you to know. Let me know when you contact him."

After Ruiz finished speaking, he hung up the phone, looked at the corpse in front of him and sighed.

Jimmy turned around and took a look. No one else came into the bedroom, so he asked: "Do we need to find out who the murderer is? Six people died. This is a big case."

Ruiz: "This will depend on the subsequent development. If it is determined to be a gang civil war, it will not be on the news. They are more afraid of exposure than we are."

Jimmy: "The paparazzi on the TV station won't let this case of multiple deaths go by, right?"

Ruiz turned to look at Jimmy: "If it was a normal case, or if it happened in other residential areas, it would have been broadcast on the TV station by now. This is the gang's den, and they know the rules."

Jimmy nodded. It seems that the media industry here in New York also has certain rules. If the gang is exposed, it is estimated that the television station or the paparazzi will not be able to withstand their revenge.

Ruiz turned and left the bedroom, followed by Jimmy, "By the way, don't we need to notify the family of the deceased?"

Ruiz said as he went downstairs: "I have asked others to contact Nicola. We really don't have direct contact information for the boss of this small gang."

Jimmy: "Let people from other gangs contact you? Why not contact other people from the Crow Gang?"

Ruiz: "It has been more than two hours since the dead person was found here. If their people could be contacted, Nicola should have appeared by this time."

Jimmy: “Are the people you’re looking for also from other gangs?”

Ruiz: "Well, the Terrasov family, they are the largest gang in the neighborhood, there should be some information."

Jimmy: "But can they be trusted?"

Ruiz did not reply, but took Jimmy directly to the street. "Of course it's unreliable, but it's okay to use it to send a message. I don't expect him to find Nicola. What I need is for him to

Pass the news to their boss."

Ruiz and Jimmy came outside the cordon. They took out cigarettes and smoked while waiting for news. After a while, Ruiz's phone rang.

Ruiz answered the phone: "Vigo, do you know the current situation? Give me some news."

"Well, I'm waiting for your news. In addition, you don't want me to take people to seal some places."

Ruiz hung up the phone, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and drove Jimmy away from the scene.

Jimmy: "Ruiz, tell me about the gang connections here. What is the situation in the Trasov family you just mentioned? I haven't seen this information yet. You have too many files."

Ruiz: "Well, Trasov is the largest Russian gang here now. He has annexed two gangs of similar size before. Vigo, who called just now, is their boss, and Abu, who I contacted before,

Ram is the second in command.

Their main business is the same as other gangs, including underground casinos, bars and nightclubs, smuggling, and drug trafficking. Moreover, they also control a considerable number of New York taxi licenses. There is no specific number yet.

The power of the Trasov family has also expanded to certain formal businesses, such as security companies, laundries, car repair shops, etc. The scale of money laundering they are involved in should be very large now, but there is no clear evidence."

Jimmy: "Shouldn't such a big gang be eliminated?"

Ruiz sighed: "Many things are not that simple. The gangsters who can become big have a lot of backgrounds. If we want to get rid of them, we will probably fall over first. Jimmy, remember, this society is not a non-stop society."

It’s black and white, you never know who may be behind it.”

Jimmy: "I know."

Back at Federal Plaza, Ruiz entered the office, and Jimmy returned to his seat. The FBI's case handling logic is actually very simple. Most of the repetitive work is handled by the people below, including on-site investigations and the responsibilities of the agents.

It is more about summarizing information from all parties and inferring the direction of the case based on existing clues. There is no need to do everything personally.

Jimmy read the information for a while, then put it down and came outside Ruiz's office: "Ruiz, do you have any clues about Reina in Dixie?"

"Not yet, just keep waiting." Ruiz looked up and watched Jimmy leave the office door. He felt something was wrong. Jimmy was too concerned about Reina. What happened at that time?

Ruiz checked on his computer, found the phone number for the Little Rock office, and dialed it directly.

Jimmy returned to his position. Instead of looking at the previous information, he first dug out the information about the Crow Gang and the Trasov family.

There is nothing special about the Crow Gang. It is a small gang of twenty or thirty people, with only three core members. The boss, Nicholas, came to the United States in 1994 and relied on connections to form a small team. After several years of development, he controlled two

In the neighborhood, he opened a small underground casino. The main customers were local gangsters and low-level people. He also used his relationship with Tomahawk to do some small smuggling trade from Russia and Europe. No one wanted to do it on a small scale.

If you want to compete with them, the Crow Gang also has the characteristics of being a lowly person. They will provide sacrifices to whoever is the boss around them.

Trasov is different. Let’s start with the rise of Russian gangs in the United States.

At the end of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, there were a large number of Jews in the Soviet Union. In order to allow these Jews to leave the Soviet Union smoothly, the United States gave the green light to immigrants. It was not strict in personnel review, so the Soviet Union carried out some special procedures for those who applied for immigration.

According to the review, in addition to the apparent Jews, many gangsters and criminals also came to the United States.

They settled down in Brighton Beach, New York, and gradually formed the prototype of a huge gang here. However, they did not have a unified group, but formed small gangs in small groups, and then gradually expanded. By the 1990s, they had formed

There are a large number of gangs, but the number of each gang does not exceed 200. For comparison, each of the five major Italian mafia families in New York controls no less than 2,000 people.

These immigrants before the disintegration of the Soviet Union gradually formed Russian gangs in the United States. Their main business was to hire murderers, act as thugs, rob and steal shops, and collect protection fees for shops. After completing primitive accumulation through these violent means, they began to move out of Blacksburg.

Dayton Beach, entering other areas of New York, competing with other gangs, and threatening the interests of other Americans.
