North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 338 An unexpected gain (Happy New Year’s Day!)

While the person at the door returned to the room, Jimmy immediately rushed up to the third floor. Glock switched to his right hand and aimed at the door of the room. Ryan and the others also came up and kicked the gun away from the man on the ground.

Several agents came upstairs, but the corridor space was limited. Only Jimmy and Ryan moved forward one after another with their eyes on the door. The agents behind did not follow, but stood guard near the stairs.

Also pay attention to the position behind them.

Jimmy: "FBI, put down your weapons, raise your hands, come out and surrender." Go through the routine to avoid problems with the report later.

After waiting for a few seconds, the people in the room did not surrender or express anything. Jimmy made a gesture to Ryan and asked him to aim at the left side of the room. Then Jimmy squatted down. He didn't quite believe in Ryan's shooting skills behind him.

I don’t want to be shot by someone from behind, so

He chose an abnormal posture. After squatting down, Jimmy put his left hand on the ground, kicked his legs hard and rushed from below to the door of the room. He fired at the two men who had taken aim in advance, and Ryan behind him also ran away.

He walked up a few steps and fired at the people in the room.

The sound of "Ugh~" was heard endlessly, and the screams of the two women could only make this muffled sound because their mouths were blocked and sealed with tape.

When Jimmy and Ryan shot inside, the people inside also shot at the door. However, they never expected that Jimmy would choose to slide from the ground to the door, so their guns were pointed at the door.

The upper middle part poses no threat to Jimmy at all.

Jimmy shot in the chest first, and then Ryan came over to add a few more shots, and then the end finally came to an end. Ryan was standing, and when he saw the two people inside falling down, he went in and kicked their guns away.

Jimmy stood up and walked into the room.

"Good marksmanship." Ryan gave Jimmy a thumbs up, then aimed his gun at the room next to him, and went in to check. Jimmy had already made sure that no one was there, so he went directly to the two women, and one of them was lying on the ground.

Because her hands were tied behind her back, she couldn't stand up after falling to the ground, so she could only lie on her side and roll to the side, not blocking the movement of the door. Another woman was sitting on the sofa, her hands were also tied behind her back.

"It's safe." Ryan checked the room and after making sure it was safe, he put away his gun and walked over. Each of them untied the two women. The one sitting on the sofa was McCullough. At this time, both women were frightened.

Although they didn't burst into tears, they were still sobbing with tears.

Jimmy: "FBI Special Agent Jimmy, Miss McCullough, are you okay? Are you injured? And this one, what do you call me?"

McCullough sobbed and shook his head: "I'm fine. Thank you."

Another girl said, "My name is Claire Rubinstein. Can I call home?"

Jimmy: "Please wait a moment, we need to contact the headquarters. We'll be there soon."

Jimmy pulled Ryan to the side, pointed at the kidnappers on the ground and said, "Lian, please report it to the superiors. We also need to arrange for an ambulance to come over. They may be able to save him."

This time, none of the three suspects had fatal injuries from being shot in the head. Now they were shot in the torso. If they were rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, there might be a chance. It would be hard to tell after a long time. Just bleeding would kill someone. The reason why Jimmy didn't

The reason why he used the Glock instead of the revolver was because he was not sure whether the two women in the room were their target McCallu. If not, the kidnapper would still be of great use.

Ryan nodded, and the detective outside also came in. He picked up the phone and called Les, and then asked another detective to contact the ambulance.

Ryan: "Les, McCullough has been rescued. At the same time, there is another kidnapped person here. Three kidnappers were shot and are now waiting for an ambulance."

Les: "Are you okay?"

Ryan glanced at McCullough. At this time, her sobs had become very low and she seemed much calmer. "She is fine. We also need to check the name of Claire Rubinstein, the other person kidnapped by the kidnappers."

Les: "Okay, if there is no problem, you can take the people directly back to the headquarters later and we will return."

Ryan: "Okay, we'll go back after the scene is dealt with."

Ryan hung up the phone and started to deal with the troubles at the scene with the others. First of all, he couldn't just leave them on the ground and ignore them. He always had to check them and those who could do first aid still had to do it.

Jimmy looked at another girl, Claire Rubinstein. He thought for a moment and dialed Chuck's phone directly: "Chuck, what is the name of the kidnapped person over there?"

Chuck: "Claire Rubinstein, 21."

Jimmy: "Have you guys received a call from the kidnappers?"

Chuck: "Yeah, 10 p.m., Prospect Park, Brooklyn, what's going on?"

Jimmy: "I think you can ask the others to close the team. We are dealing with a kidnapping case and found another girl at the scene. Her name is Claire."

Chuck: "Where are you? I'm coming to find you."

Jimmy: "No need to come. Go directly to the FBI office later. We will bring people back after we finish handling the scene."

Chuck: "OK, thanks."

This mission is good, and there are unexpected gains, but it is better to solve it together than to consume more manpower but get the final result. This time the three kidnappers have guns, if something really happens at the scene

, it’s hard to say later.

They will not directly bring two women to the scene. There may still be a lot of controversy if someone is caught at the scene.

Except for the injured, everyone is happy now. It is a perfect ending, which is good. Just wait for the ambulance to arrive and arrange for these three people to go to the first aid. It is not certain how many will survive. If there is anyone alive, maybe they can be dug out.

Maybe there are people behind. Their kidnapping target is too precise. There may be someone hiding behind it, at least someone with intelligence, otherwise they wouldn't have known that a model turned out to be the daughter of a big business owner, and issued a prescription for her.

A ransom of 5 million was paid, which was too accurate.

The other Claire is probably not a fuel-efficient one. It is impossible for them to kidnap another person casually while carrying out the mission of kidnapping McCallu. It doesn't make sense from common sense. It can only be said that Claire is also part of their plan.

Later, the FBI will also investigate whether McCullough's father has any enemies, whether it was a revenge kidnapping or the like. In short, this case has only been solved on the surface, and there will be a lot of trouble for Rice and the others. Who will let them do it?

They are the kidnapping and disappearance case task force.

Ryan came to Jimmy's side: "I just heard your call, do you know about the case of another kidnapped girl?"

Jimmy nodded: "A friend of the NYPD was handling Claire's kidnapping case yesterday, but I didn't know the name before. I just asked, and it was indeed her. This time we helped the NYPD solve a small problem."

Ryan nodded and patted Jimmy on the shoulder, "It's nice to be able to help them. Thank you. Fortunately, you came with me this time."

Jimmy laughed loudly and said to Ryan: "If you thank me, just write a good report and don't let OPR trouble me."

Ryan: "Don't worry, I will take care of it. Good job. Your marksmanship is really good. Have you been practicing for a long time?"

Jimmy: "A little talent is nothing. How long will it take for the ambulance to arrive?"

Ryan: "Two or three minutes, it should be quick."

Jimmy smiled, pulled up a chair next to Lai Zao and sat down to wait. They were not part of the kidnapping and disappearance team in the first place. It was better to stay out of the scene to avoid taking over the blame later.

After two hours of busy work, the forensic officers who came later investigated the entire room, and the work was finally completed. However, Jimmy and Ryan returned to the FBI Manhattan office with the two girls in advance.

After handing the person over to Les, Jimmy had completed his mission. Not long after, Chuck and Nia had arrived at the Federal Building. After seeing Claire again, the two of them felt relieved. They had been wondering if they had the same name.

People, it seems they are quite lucky.

Chuck: "Jimmy, thanks."

Jimmy: "Haha, you're welcome. Please treat me to a supper."

Chuck: "Of course, let's go. We'll take Claire back tomorrow. As long as she's safe, it won't be too late."

Jimmy: "OK, Nia, let's go have supper together, your boss will pay the bill."

Nia rolled her eyes at Jimmy, but she couldn't stop the smile on her face. After two days of hard work, although she didn't solve the case by herself, it's always good to have a good result.

Chuck is an interesting little old man. I don’t know if it’s because of Chris’s reputation or because he’s more satisfied with Jimmy. He doesn’t mingle with him when they have late-night snacks. Basically, Jimmy and Nia are not very familiar with each other. After a late-night snack, it’s obvious that they have a good relationship.

A lot, and Jimmy also quietly received a card from Nia.

After going back to rest for a night, when he returned to the office the next day, Jimmy went to see Les first. The model McCullu was not allowed to go back yesterday because only one of the three robbers was still in the hospital and two had already gone to the morgue.

She was waiting for the autopsy, so McCullough needed to provide the details of the kidnapping. The FBI office was very safe, so she was allowed to stay overnight, and the agency didn't have any objections.

Jimmy came to Les just to find out what was going on, because according to surveillance, McCullu left directly with that person without even notifying his agent, which was very surprising.

The reason Les told Jimmy was speechless. McCullough met one of the kidnappers at a party a few days ago. He called himself Calum. He was very eloquent and handsome. Of course, Jimmy has now

Killed Ryan. Calum is very good at talking, and all kinds of novel topics attracted McCullu's attention.

Attention, the two met twice in the next few days, and they talked happily each time. At the end of the catwalk that day, Calum was waiting for McCullu directly backstage. After the two exchanged a few words, McCullu went

After taking off my makeup, I followed Calum directly out of the show. I was so excited that I didn't even notify my agent.

After staying in an apartment for one night, McCullough was driven away by Calum in the morning. As a result, when she stopped on the road, Calum knocked her out with a handkerchief. Then she woke up and went to the apartment.

A girl was already in the room, and like Calum, she was brought back unconscious.

Jimmy: "A very important question, does McCullough know the price for their kidnapping?"

Les: "I don't know, actually neither girl knew what their offer was."

Jimmy: "That's the problem. Yesterday I was thinking about how the kidnappers determined that a female model was worth a ransom of 5 million. There are many more consequences to this matter."

Les: "Well, I thought of it, so I didn't let McCallu go back tonight. Her father will rush to New York today. Let's find out more when he arrives. You guys did it too darkly. Only half of the three kidnappers were left.

Still in ICU now."

Les said the last sentence through gritted teeth, and the way she stared at Jimmy made people feel chills running down her back.

Jimmy waved his hands quickly: "No, it's not my fault. I searched another apartment. Ryan and the others were beaten directly from the third floor to the first floor by the kidnappers. I just went to support. If you are angry, go to Ryan, everything is

He did it."

Les moved his chin to the left and right, and it was obvious that he was grinding his teeth. He was really angry. "OK, this case is almost over now. I'll come back to listen when McCullu's father comes. I'm going back first, um,

Chris has something to talk to me about, see you later."

Jimmy quickly found an excuse and slipped out of Les's office. You can't mess with women. Your own men are causing trouble. Why are you causing trouble for me?

Jimmy returned to his office, but Chris hadn't come yet. Judging from his injured appearance, he was probably recuperating at home for at least two weeks. Hey, after all, age is not forgiving. I think Jimmy was shot in the calf in a sneak attack.

It took three weeks to get back to work. Chris' current injury will definitely not be easy to recover from.

Jimmy was looking through the information when the phone rang and he glanced at it, Roland?

Jimmy: "Roland, are you back?"

A strange man's voice opposite: "Are you Jimmy?"

Jimmy frowned: "Who are you?"

Man opposite: "Jack Chambers."

Jimmy was shocked. Jack Chambers, the first person to follow Roland, had not seen him since he came to this world. "Jack, how is Roland? He said he went back, why is his cell phone here with you?"

Jack: "Let's talk in person. Where are you?"

Jimmy: "Manhattan, New York. Where are you? I can go find you."

Jack: "Just wait for me for two days. I'll call you when I arrive in two days."

Jimmy: "Okay. I'll wait for your call. Goodbye, Jack."

Jack: "Bye, Jimmy."

Jimmy hung up the phone and started thinking about it. It was strange. Ever since the black man brought Roland's box to Jimmy, Jimmy would call Roland every now and then, but he couldn't get through. Now Jack suddenly called Roland with his cell phone.

What happened when you came back? Also, how did Jack get Roland's cell phone?

Regarding Jack Chambers, Roland briefly mentioned a few words before. Jack also has the power of the Shining, which is similar to a certain degree of precognition. He has outstanding painting skills and can draw pictures he foresees. Roland mailed him before

I gave him two paintings, saying they predicted him. In the two paintings, one showed Jimmy holding a gun in both hands, and the other showed Jimmy lying on the ground.

When Roland and Jack cooperated in the past, Jack also predicted the scene. Roland took him to the scene to clean up the supernatural incident. It can be seen that Jack's ability is also very strong. Although it is not used for direct combat, he is absolutely top-notch as an assistant.

, maybe you can ask Jack about those two paintings when you meet him this time.

Jimmy left his office, sat on the sofa and started to boil water. He made himself a pot of tea and took a rest while thinking about what he wanted to do. He didn't know what Jack's attitude was towards him. If he met Jack when Roland was there, that would be okay.

At least Roland had a connection in the middle. Now that he was facing Jack directly, he really didn't know what to say.

I washed the tea, made tea, and poured myself a cup of Lapsang Souchong. The second brew was still much worse than the uncle in the tea shop. I don’t know why. Is the tea set different? The uncle in the tea shop also made the tea at that time.

The same tea leaves as myself. Sure enough, even making tea requires skills and talent.

Jimmy hadn't finished the pot of tea when the phone rang and Les informed him that McCullu's father had arrived.

Jimmy put down his tea cup, picked up his suit and hurried to Les' office. In the adjacent conference room, McCullough, who was rescued yesterday, was sitting next to a middle-aged man, and Les and Ryan were sitting opposite them.

Jimmy knocked on the door and came in and sat next to Ryan. Les was asking McCullough's father if he could figure out who might have been responsible for the kidnapping.

Jimmy sat opposite McCullough and her father. Looking at them, she always felt strange. McCullough had blond hair, why did her father have brown hair? McCullough's father had short brown hair, slightly curly, and a typical look.

The image of a white, middle-aged man, without a beard, and the skin on his face looks well maintained. It is this hair that makes Jimmy stand out. What seems to be the secret?

Because he was speaking in French, Jimmy didn't understand it at all, so he could only wander around in confusion. I have to say that, as the leader of the task force, Les really had a lot of skills, and he actually understood French. They communicated

After more than ten minutes, Les stood up, shook hands with McCullough and her father, and sent them off.

After a while, Les came back and said, "Okay, the case is over, there is no follow-up. Jimmy, you can deal with other cases."

Jimmy: "Huh? Didn't you speculate that someone was deliberately targeting them?"

Les: "Yes, but that happened after they returned to France and has nothing to do with us. This case is just like this. She will come back before the trial."

Jimmy: "Well, there's really nothing you can do about it when you get to France. Speaking of which, you actually know French. I've always thought French is too difficult."

Les: "I learned this by the way when I was in school. Ryan, you go to the hospital and have a look. The living kidnapper should be out of the ICU and see if you can make a record."

Ryan stood up and nodded, said hello to Jimmy, buttoned up his suit and left the conference room.

Since there was no follow-up, Jimmy had nothing to do. He left the conference room and drove directly downstairs to the NYPD, where there was an unfinished case.

Jimmy: "Chuck, how's your case going?"

Chuck: "I've sent Claire back. I've contacted Hughes and the case has been handled jointly with Les's side. It's been handed over now."

Jimmy: "Okay, what do you do next? Do you still want to pursue the guitarist from before?"

Chuck: "Let's take another look. If there are still no clues, we can only put it aside for the time being."

Jimmy asked for trouble and wandered over to Nia's location, "Nia, what are you doing?"

Nia raised her head and glanced at Jimmy, then lowered her head and continued writing the document, "What can you do?"

Jimmy: "It's almost noon. Let's go out for lunch?"

Nia didn't even raise her head: "I don't have time, there are still a lot of documents to process."

Jimmy: "There are so many things to do and we can't finish them. Lunch won't delay things. Let's go."

Nia raised her head and sighed. It seemed that Jimmy couldn't get rid of this bullshit plaster. She put down the pen and said, "Chuck, do you want to come with us?"

Chuck waved his hand behind his head, "You go ahead, I have something else to do here."

Jimmy left with Nia. When passing by Chuck's place, Jimmy reached out and made a V sign behind his back. Chuck saw Jimmy's little move and smiled and shook his head.

Because Nia insisted, Jimmy and her just had a simple lunch in the restaurant next to the police station and then returned to the police station. However, it seemed that there was a bit of drama. At least Nia did not reject Jimmy very much. They also talked about it during the meal.

Laugh, there is no silence.

In the past two years, Jimmy's eloquence has been moderate. Although he cannot be said to be eloquent, at least he can talk about some topics.

(F**K, my monitor crashed when I woke up early in the morning. I only coded so much last night, so I’ll take a quick look at it, and I’ll go get the monitor repaired. The 3-year warranty turned out to be full of vertical stripes after 3 and a half years. I want to curse.)
