North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 257 Buying a house?

Today's outfit is not suitable for wearing armpit holsters. As for leg holsters, forget it, this is New York. If Jimmy doesn't plan to hang the badge on his belt to show off, he'd better not be so arrogant.

Put the revolver on the back of your waist and the belt is stuck. As long as it doesn't leak out, there's no problem. Of course, you have to prevent it from being robbed or stolen. Then look at your body. It's okay. Put your wallet, keys, and cigarette case into your pants pocket.

, put the lighter in your shirt pocket, and once done, look left and right in the mirror, there is nothing unusual, and you can go out to eat.

While walking on the street, I was looking for a place to eat. Even though it was noon, the traffic was still congested. It seemed that the traffic in Manhattan was not getting better. The beeping sounds kept coming and going. It felt like every driver had road rage.

Jimmy looked at the road conditions, and it seemed that he had never had such a leisurely time before. At this time, he still had to be grateful that he did not drive that second-hand Mercury to New York. According to his previous driving habits, he would have started to curse.

He found a cafe for a quick meal and continued walking on the road. Looking at the busy road, Jimmy thought for a while, it would be a good idea to get a motorcycle for transportation. The key is that it doesn't take up much space and can also travel through the traffic.

, although it is a bit dangerous, as long as you pay attention, it shouldn't be a big problem.

But there is still a big problem. The apartment he rents does not have a parking lot. If he really wants to buy a car, whether it is a motorcycle or a car, he will always need a parking space, especially for motorcycles. There is no safe parking.

We guarantee that he will spend the whole night and his car will be gone.

While wandering around, Jimmy's phone rang. "Hi, Peter, what's up?"

After Jimmy answered the phone, he hung up and prepared to go home.

Just now, Peter was asked about Jimmy's work status in his group by someone from OPR, so he called Jimmy and invited Jimmy to his house for dinner in the evening. He wanted to enlighten Jimmy. Being investigated is not the end of the world. There is no need to be depressed.

.

Peter is actually a very good leader. Although he is a bit troublesome, he is principled and will block some pressure from above for his subordinates. Jimmy still likes this kind of boss. Since Peter called to invite him to his house for dinner, he always gave him

To save face.

Jimmy went back to rest for a while, took a shower, put on his suit in the evening, grabbed a bottle of wine and went out.

Jimmy took a taxi to Peter's house and pressed the doorbell. Elizabeth came over and opened the door.

"Jimmy, long time no see." Elizabeth saw Jimmy outside the door and welcomed with a smile. Jimmy gave Elizabeth the wine and then walked into the house.

"Elizabeth, hasn't Peter come back yet?" Jimmy saw only Elizabeth and a dog in the house when he was outside. Peter was not there, so he always wanted to ask.

"She should be back soon. He called before. You sit down first." Elizabeth turned around and put the red wine on the wine rack, and also sat on the sofa to chat casually with Jimmy and kill some time.

Not long after, Peter came back, and Elizabeth went to work in the kitchen. Peter took off his gun holster and put it in the drawer, and came over and sat in front of Elizabeth.

"Peter, have you been questioned by OPR? What did they say?" Jimmy still couldn't hold back and asked this question.

Peter: "It's nothing special. It's just your performance during the previous case handling. Don't worry, you'll be fine."

Jimmy shook his head and smiled bitterly: "How can I be so relieved? I was suddenly attacked like this by OPR. Now I am no longer worried about being transferred, but whether I will no longer be an FBI agent."

Peter raised his eyebrows: "Why do you think so?"

Jimmy: "Garrett Fuller from OPR has been asking me about the details of the shooting. Originally, if he just asked about a few cases I participated in, it would only take ten minutes to get it done, but it ended up taking an hour. Although

It’s wrong to think so, I really suspect that he seems to be targeting me.”

Peter: "That's just because you killed a lot of people. Don't think too much. I won't fire you directly."

Elizabeth went in and out several times and came out with a plate, "Okay, stop talking, come and sit."

Peter shook his head and motioned for Jimmy to come over and sit down. The three of them sat down. Elizabeth poured wine for the three of them and said, "Welcome Jimmy."

"Thank you." After clinking glasses, the three of them started to have dinner. Peter and Elizabeth were not believers, so there was no pre-dinner prayer. This was really good. Although Jimmy was a believer on the surface, he refused Peter's request to pray first.

process.

During the meal, Jimmy suddenly spoke: "Peter, is there any familiar agent in the bureau? I want to buy an apartment or a house."

Elizabeth and Peter suddenly stopped what they were doing and looked at Jimmy in surprise: "What? You want to buy a house?"

Jimmy blinked, why did he feel that their expressions were not right? "Yes, in our Chinese concept, having your own house is a home."

Peter put down the tableware and wiped his hands, "You have just started working. If you buy a house now, you will be under great pressure to repay the loan."

Jimmy then thought about the reason for their surprised expressions just now, "It's okay, I still have some savings. As long as it's not a particularly expensive house, it should be fine."

Peter: "Then where do you want to buy it?"

Jimmy: "Let's go somewhere closer. I probably can't afford it in Manhattan. Brooklyn is close to Manhattan. As for the budget, 300,000? 400,000?"

This time it was not just Peter, Elizabeth also put down the tableware. Peter's eyes narrowed, "Jimmy, what did you do before? Where did you get so much money?"

Jimmy waved his right hand, "Calm down, don't get excited, my money is legal. I have a company in Little Rock that charges hundreds of thousands in patent licensing fees every year. It's not anything illegal."

Peter and Elizabeth looked at each other and said to Jimmy: "If there is no problem with the funding, I can help you contact the relationship in the bureau, but you need to wait. This matter will not be solved in a short time."

Peter was about to take a new look at Jimmy, the newly hired trainee agent. It seemed that his previous investigation was still too biased towards professional investigation, but he overlooked some things.

No matter how much Jimmy says he is legal, he needs to conduct a detailed investigation again. Think about it again when OPR suddenly launches an investigation into Jimmy. Did it find anything?

Jimmy: "Well? Isn't buying a house done after finding the payment and completing the formalities? Is there anything else you need?"

Peter: "Of course it's very troublesome. The agent finds the house, helps you with the procedures, applies for a loan, etc. The process is very long. In short, don't worry about it, I will contact you for you."

Jimmy: "Well, I want to pay the full price directly to buy it. It's only a few hundred thousand. I should still have enough funds in my account."

Peter was speechless. Buying a house with all the money was a very wealthy thing to do. Generally, Americans with fixed assets are not carrying several loan projects.

I go to work during the day, and when I work overtime at night, I feel a little confused when coding. If there are typos or something, remind me and I will correct them during the day.

In addition, the monthly ticket will be useful after it is put on the shelves, but the recommendation ticket is basically of little use. It is better to give the recommendation ticket to those new books that are not on the shelf. For them, the recommendation list is also an opportunity for exposure, so just give me the monthly ticket...
