North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 349 Compulsory Vacation

Hughes looked at everyone and waved his hand: "Let's pause for a while. You go back first. We will have another meeting after Ryan comes over."

Everyone nodded, stood up and left the conference room. Ruiz reached out and pulled Jimmy. Jimmy slowed down and walked side by side with Ruiz toward his office.

Ruiz let Jimmy into the office, looked outside, and closed the glass door.

Ruiz: "Jimmy, any thoughts?"

Jimmy nodded: "This matter must be related to the gang, especially T14. The first video should be the surveillance they installed."

Ruiz: "I don't think there is any doubt that this kind of thing happened over Scar. They probably just wanted to retaliate against us because the goods were found by us. But the second video is very strange.

It's been a long time since the incident happened, and the video should have been leaked a long time ago. Now that they have taken it out, they must have some purpose, but we don't know yet."

Jimmy: "Is it possible that it's just MS13 people out to get back at us?"

Ruiz: "People from MS13 took the initiative to contact me after that. They had already relented and probably wouldn't do such a thing."

Jimmy: "Then I can't think of it. I don't seem to have offended any other gang."

Ruiz: "This matter is very troublesome. Your identity and your ethnicity will become the target of their attacks. You must pay attention to it recently. Let's see how Hughes handles it today. If the matter really gets serious,

Very bad for you."

Jimmy nodded: "I know, I just...why are there so many moles in the FBI? This shabby house is already leaking!"

Ruiz also sighed, this is such a hellish world.

Jimmy shook his head, "Forget it, there's no use thinking about it now, let's take a look later."

Jimmy turned around and opened the door and left Ruiz's office. When he returned to his own office, Chris was still not there. He was alone. He couldn't bear it anymore and punched the table.

"Fxxk, don't f**king let me know who did it." Jimmy said harsh words into the air.

Sitting in his seat, Jimmy was in a very bad mood. What happened in the first video was easy to explain, because the four injured were still in the hospital. They were not dead at all. All it took was a press conference to solve the problem.

But the second video was difficult to produce. Although the internal inquiry hearing was passed smoothly at that time, that was because they were all our own people and had a lot to say. If it was really explained to the outside world in this way, many people would not

I must accept Jimmy's reasons.

Oh, no, it’s not easy to explain why I talked to them in the first video, because the bomb case is not yet ready to be announced, and this press conference probably won’t be held either.

While Jimmy was thinking about it, the phone rang, Detective Chuck from the NYPD.

Jimmy: "Hi."

Chuck: "Is that you? Tell the truth."

Jimmy asked with a black face: "What?"

Chuck: "Video from the news station, two videos."

Jimmy: "What video is it? I haven't watched it yet. I'm working on a case recently."

Chuck: "Go check it out first. It's very interesting. Goodbye." Plop, Chuck hung up the phone.

Jimmy really couldn't admit it. The bureau had not yet given a solution. Everything was kept secret and delayed. Jimmy couldn't say anything about Chuck's phone call.

Chuck hung up the phone, and Nia next to him asked: "Are you sure?"

Chuck nodded, "It's almost certain that his reaction was wrong. Don't disclose it to the outside world yet. I'll contact the people at the police station in Brooklyn to ask."

Nia nodded, "I didn't expect him to be so good at fighting."

Chuck said while checking his cell phone number: "Of course, someone who can join the FBI at such a young age and still handle cases independently must have very strong abilities. Did you see that he was with other people when he came? Obviously, Chris' team now

He is just a sign."

Nia was thoughtful, while Chuck found the phone, called it, and after calling a few people, finally confirmed it.

"Yes, the first patrol officer who arrived at the scene said that he was an Asian FBI agent. He must be the only one in the Manhattan office who can do this. Nia, such an outstanding man, don't miss the opportunity.

"

Nia rolled her eyes at Chuck and turned back to her seat.

Jimmy didn't even go downstairs for lunch. Instead, he asked someone to bring two burgers to make up for the meal. Finally, Ryan arrived at Hughes' office, and Hughes continued to summon them back to the conference room.

There were still no outsiders in the afternoon meeting, only a few people from the morning plus Ryan who came over temporarily.

Hughes: "Ryan, how's your investigation going?"

Ryan shook his head: "There is no way to investigate. After the inquiry on this case was completed, I uploaded all the information. In theory, anyone who can check the internal information can see the relevant content, and basically everyone can be excluded.

Only trainee detectives, administrative staff. It's hard to determine who released the video."

Hughes: "What about the technical department? What were their conclusions?"

Ryan: "The video file has been viewed more than a thousand times. The system does not record who visited and viewed it, so there is no way to trace it. But they have an idea that the video played on the news is not actually the original video. In other words,

Someone got the video from the system and deliberately processed and transcribed it before taking it out, so the version on the news will be blurry. If you really want to investigate all people, it is best to first search for someone who can control the transcription.

Equipment people, the amount of work involved can be very large.”

Hughes shook his head, "This is meaningless. Once the video is spread, there is no telling how many times it will be spread later. It is best to get the news from the TV station and who gave it to them. Patrick,

What do you mean?"

Patrick shook his head and said nothing.

Hughes looked at the others and said, "If any of you have contact with the TV station, please go and ask in private."

Everyone nodded, and just then, Ruiz's phone rang.

Ruiz: "Hey, who are you?"

"Scar, you still dare to call me." Ruiz saw Hughes' gesture and opened his cell phone.

"Ruiz, please don't tell secrets. The first video was made by my people, but the second video has nothing to do with me. I'm just a gang member, but I'm not a fool. There's no way I could do something like this."

thing."

"Scar! How do you expect me to trust you?"

"NO, NO, NO! I'm not asking you to believe me, but I have to explain it. As for whether you believe it or not, I think you should have the answer. Ruiz, I don't want to go against you. I was just a little person in the beginning.

It was just a joke. I apologize."

Hughes raised his fingers and swiped across the phone. Ruiz kept looking at Hughes who was answering the phone and knew what he meant, "Scar, just take care of yourself. I hope you are telling the truth. You know the cost of lying."

Yes." After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Ruiz gritted his teeth and said: "How did he get my phone number? Fxxk!"

Hughes shook his head. For gangsters, it is not difficult to obtain the phone numbers of some agents, because the FBI is an open federal police agency and there are many ways to obtain some information.

The biggest trouble now is that the video used as evidence has been leaked. This matter is very difficult to deal with. If the headquarters uses this incident to interfere in the affairs of the Manhattan office, Hughes will have many things that will be difficult to deal with.

Hughes: "Fuller, OPR will conduct an internal investigation and don't let this matter get out, especially don't let DC get involved."

Fuller nodded with a serious expression. The duty of OPR is to offend people. They handle it more appropriately than others. Although it is not their profession, the people in OPR are also federal agents. In terms of ability,

The people in OPR are actually no worse than those in the field. Many OPR members are even transferred from field agents for various reasons.

Hughes: "Patrick, please discuss with the people in your department, consider a plan for the first video, and prepare a small press conference if necessary. As for why our agents are at the scene, the case has not yet been solved and is being kept secret for the time being."

Drag it down first."

Patrick nodded, "If nothing happens, I'll go back first."

Hughes: "Well, things are better prepared. If anything goes wrong, contact me immediately."

Patrick nodded, stood up and left the conference room.

Hughes: "Jimmy, don't go to the Counter-Terrorism Bureau for the time being. Go back and rest. Don't go out for the past two days and wait for my notice."

Jimmy: "Okay, I'll go back now." Jimmy also got up and left the conference room. No matter what Hughes and the others were left to discuss, it had nothing to do with Jimmy.

Jimmy is extremely depressed now. There are now clues about the bomb case. According to the investigation efficiency of the people from the Counter-Terrorism Bureau, it is very likely that the person who met reporter Ax will be found soon, and thus the specific clues behind it can be found. It is not even ruled out that the bomb can be directly found.

The possibility, but now it has nothing to do with him, so he can only follow what Hughes said, rest at home, and temporarily avoid all places where he may be exposed.

Jimmy went downstairs and drove home. When he got home, he hung up the anti-theft chain on the door. He opened the refrigerator and calculated the food inventory. It seemed that he would order one or two takeaways in the past two days. After changing into home clothes, Jimmy took a can of beer and thoroughly

Collapsed on the sofa.

After Jimmy left, Hughes assigned tasks to Ruiz and Ryan. After he returned to the office, he contacted someone to find a way to go to the TV station to find out who sent the video, but it would only take a while.

It is impossible to get the news, so we can only continue to wait.

On the Counter-Terrorism Bureau's side, after a long day of screening, the operators at the command center finally found a few people who repeatedly appeared in the coverage area of ​​the anonymous mobile phone number. The reason why it was so troublesome was because the coverage rate of the base station was really too large.

The located location will still cover many people. It is difficult and troublesome to find people in multiple locations among these people.

Kerry knocks on Noah Watson's door: 'We identified a couple of possible targets.'

Noah immediately got up and returned to the command center with Kerry. Several images were already displayed on the monitor on the wall.

Noah: "Did you find out their identities?"

Operator: "Not yet, image recognition is in progress, the clarity is not enough, and the progress is a bit slow."

Noah: "Kerry, how was the trial of Abdul?"

Kerry: "It's the same as the results from the FBI. He's just an ordinary operator, but his identity is very interesting."

Noah: "Say."

Kerry: "Abdel studied in France, then returned to Afghanistan to join the al-Qaida branch, and was then assigned to the al-Qaeda branch in Iraq. According to our intelligence, that branch now seems to be out of control and may become a

Brand new organization, separated from the base."

Noah: "Then this person is still useful?"

Kerry: "Well, but now is not the time to consider this, so I haven't reported it to you before."

Noah: "Well done. Don't leave him too much damage. Since it's useful, just protect him better."

After looking at the information on the screen for a while, Noah said: "After the identities of these people are identified, notify the FBI agents to investigate. We only provide information and will not participate in the arrest. Do you understand?"

Kerry: "Got it."

Noah returned to his office. After a while, someone sent a box of video tapes. After Noah played it, the images that appeared were two videos played by the TV station. These two videos were a bit too exciting for many people.

, so it is estimated that various institutions will see it today. Even if it is not a live broadcast on TV, someone will provide a video.

There are many people who can do it with one enemy against many, but according to the situation in the video, there are not many people who can end the battle perfectly. Reality is not a movie. The kind of lone hero in the movie who can still survive in the hail of bullets is in reality.

Not many, very rare.

After Noah watched it, he made a phone call. Someone soon sent detailed information. The identity of the person in the video was also confirmed. It was Jimmy Young from the Manhattan office of the FBI.

Turning on the computer and searching for Jimmy's information, Noah quickly closed the file. It's very enviable to have such people in the FBI. There should be a lot of people in the CIA who can do this, but most of them are scattered throughout the country.

The world is at work, and the country clearly cannot deploy such agents.

Unfortunately, the information Noah checked was from the FBI's database. From the FBI's side, Jimmy's CIA background could not be seen at all. It is actually normal for the CIA to check the FBI's database. Although they are very difficult to deal with, the CIA often

People who forge identities in China and pretend to be the FBI are often added to their database inexplicably. Just check the name and number, then it is the real thing. Anyway, just clean it up after use.

Gordon and the others stayed in the conference room for a day, and finally had a chance to take action. They obtained several character information provided by the command center. Gordon called Jimmy's phone number. As their contact person, this kind of investigation must require Jimmy.

Participating.

Gordon: "Hey, Jimmy, are you in the bureau?"

Jimmy: "No, I have something to do recently and I won't go back to the bureau. Did you find anything?"

Gordon: "Well, the Counter-Terrorism Bureau has identified several suspects. We need to follow up now and need you to provide several monitoring teams."

Jimmy: "Ah, there's nothing I can do about this. You may need to go to the bureau and contact Hughes. Chris hasn't been here recently."

Gordon: "Okay."

Gordon hung up the phone and looked at the others: "Let's go back to the bureau first and see how to arrange the personnel."

Scott: "What happened to Jimmy? Why was he suddenly transferred?"

Gordon: "I don't know. Let's go back to the bureau and ask Hughes later. He took a call from Hughes and left before. I guess Hughes has some urgent tasks. Okay, let's pack up. Let's go back first.

Bureau."
