Gordon didn't let Jimmy wait long. In about half an hour, Gordon called back. Joseph Young had been arrested in Abdul's warehouse. Joseph Young had the key to that warehouse. This was a clear clue. It is also one of the reasons for arrest and can be written in the report.
The surveillance personnel arranged for the car Joseph drove to be towed and taken to the FBI evidence warehouse, where the car would be investigated in detail. At the same time, forensic officers were arranged to go to Joseph's apartment, and everything there would be investigated clearly.
Abdul's car, which had been towed to the police parking lot, had also been pulled to the FBI's evidence warehouse before. This kind of direct evidence is very unsafe to store in the police parking lot. It would be troublesome if it was towed away and destroyed. Jimmy's car that was damaged by the NYPD has been recovered and repaired by them, but I don't know who will be used by it later.
Joseph Young was not brought to the Counterterrorism Bureau, but was first taken to the Manhattan office for interrogation.
Jimmy originally planned to return to the bureau, but Gordon refused. He also needed Jimmy to pass on the news. Any clues obtained from Joseph would be urgently traced by the Counter-Terrorism Bureau. There was no need to go through FBI procedures here, which was much more convenient.
Jimmy returned to the command center, and Noah was still standing here. Judging from his position, he had been standing like this for half an hour. The old man had good physical strength.
Jimmy: "Mr. Watson, Joseph Young has been captured. He set out to Abdul's warehouse and has the key to that warehouse. Gordon and the others took action."
Noah turned to face Jimmy: "Bring him here, we need urgent interrogation here."
Jimmy: "They are going to Federal Plaza now, and the clues for the interrogation there will be provided."
Noah narrowed his eyes, "Bring him here, our people are more suitable for interrogation. Kerry, contact the Manhattan office."
Before Jimmy could object, Kerry had already taken out his cell phone and walked out of the command center. Jimmy looked at Noah, who had turned around, and felt something was wrong. Noah didn't seem to be so concerned about the bombing before. Why did he feel like he cared so much about it now?
The only clue now is the captured Joseph Young. There are no other clues for the time being. There seems to be nothing to do in the command center. Jimmy suddenly has a little idea. Hughes said before that no matter the cost, it seems that maybe something can be done.
He turned around and left the command center. After returning to the conference room, he called Ruiz directly: "Ruiz, how are you doing there?"
Ruiz took the phone and stood on the side of the road smoking a cigarette while telling Jimmy: "Nothing gained. I'm monitoring him, but I haven't found any problems."
Jimmy and the others didn't mention their names on the phone. They were the only three in the conference room when Hughes arranged the task, so it was obvious who they were talking about.
Jimmy: "Give me his mobile phone number, home phone number, and office phone number."
Ruiz didn't reply. He took a puff of cigarette and exhaled: "Got an idea? Wait a minute." He returned to the surveillance car, took out the deputy editor's information, and reported the number to Jimmy. Jimmy wrote Alan Tudyk's name on the note, then wrote three numbers underneath, and hung up.
In fact, the FBI's data center also has phone monitoring and record retrieval, but Jimmy and the others cannot use it casually. They need to submit an application. Although Ruiz has authority as the leader of the task force, he cannot use this function casually. , this investigation was carried out using general monitoring methods.
Jimmy tore off the sticky note, folded it and put it in his pocket. Jimmy was thinking about whether to contact Hughes in the conference room and use the Counter-Terrorism Bureau to handle his personal affairs. It seemed that there would be a lot of problems. What was the reason? If they were to track him down, would it be very detrimental to him?
Jimmy was struggling with his cell phone, and finally decided not to contact Hughes. This was all for his own personal revenge. For a young man, impulsiveness is understandable. If he reported it to Hughes, he would either divorce him or not. Si refused directly, or he would drag Hughes into the water. No matter which outcome, he was not what he wanted.
Jimmy made up his mind that since the two video incidents were directed at him, he would take it upon himself. No matter whether it was successful or not, it was better not to involve others and let others get into trouble.
Jimmy came to the command center and Noah had already left. He asked someone in Noah's office and went there.
"Dong dong" Jimmy knocked on the door, and Noah looked up at him from inside and hooked his fingers to let him in.
Noah: "Jimmy, what's the matter?"
Jimmy: "Mr. Watson, I have something to discuss with you."
Noah nodded, and Jimmy continued: "You know the two videos from the past few days. We have investigated part of the situation. The first video was made by the gang that belonged to the warehouse we destroyed. They were just for revenge. The warehouse was searched and people were injured.
But the second video is very troublesome. It is obviously aimed at me. So far, we have only found the video provided by the deputy editor of the TV station, but we have not found out where he got it from.
Because I am the detective in charge of the bombing case, this video incident against me is most likely to delay the progress of our case. I would like to ask you to help investigate the deputy editor's source and find out who is operating this. The matter may be related to the bombing case we are dealing with now. "
Noah frowned and looked at Jimmy, did he think he was a fool?
Jimmy looked at Noah's expression and knew something was wrong. "I'm sorry, I lied to you. I just want to know who is targeting me, and I have no clue right now. I'm sorry."
After Jimmy finished speaking, he lowered his head and bowed slightly to Noah.
Noah: "Who asked you to come to me?"
Jimmy: "No one asked me to do this. I am just a new agent and do not have the authority to access the FBI's deep database. I only wanted to ask you to help investigate the deputy editor after seeing your command center. I know I was wrong. I'm sorry." "
Noah waved his hand, Jimmy bowed again, turned and left his office, returning to the command center.
As expected, it failed. Jimmy had thought of this possibility when he was thinking about it before, so he considered whether it would affect other people. This is the Counter-Terrorism Bureau, and Noah Watson is the senior director of the CIA. How could such a person not see his little thoughts? But Jimmy still wanted to try, just in case he succeeded.
According to the investigative capabilities of the Counterterrorism Bureau, it may only take a short time to find out the source of deputy editor Alan Tudyk, which can completely liberate Ruiz and find out who is behind it as soon as possible.
However, the problem of failure is not a big problem. From Jimmy's perspective, this should be the young Jimmy's intention to use the ability of their counter-terrorism bureau to seek personal revenge. At most, he will not help, and he should not specifically target him.
A few minutes later, Noah arrived at the command center, stood at the door and said, "Jimmy, come here." Jimmy turned to look at Noah, who was already standing outside the command center.
Noah stretched out his right hand: "Give it to me." Jimmy looked at Noah's face in surprise and opened his mouth. He never expected that Noah would agree. He quickly reached into his pocket and took out the note and put it in Noah's hand.
Noah: "Go back and wait for news."
Jimmy bowed slightly: "Thank you, thank you very much." Instead of returning to the command center, he turned around and went directly downstairs to the conference room.
What is a surprise? This is called surprise!
Although I don’t know what Noah is thinking, his troubles can be solved faster this time.
To be honest, when it comes to investigating intelligence, the FBI is really not as unscrupulous as the CIA, because the FBI is a federal police agency on the surface, and many things have regulations to abide by, while the CIA can be said to have no bottom line.
If Noah really helps, it won't be a big deal with the system permissions they have now.
About half an hour later, Gordon came to the conference room. When Jimmy saw him, he stood up immediately, "Gordon, why are you here? Aren't you going to interrogate Joseph?"
Gordon was originally expressionless, but after listening to Jimmy's words, the corners of his mouth twitched and his expression turned ugly, "Joseph has been brought over. I'm here to ask you to come with me to observe."
Jimmy nodded, picked up the suit lying next to him, put it on, and followed Gordon upstairs. The two specially-built rooms here at the Counter-Terrorism Bureau looked normal, but Jimmy could see through his inner eye that there was something wrong with the walls of these two rooms. They were incredibly thick, and he didn't know if the floors could hold up.
Joseph sat behind the table, his hands clasped on the welded rings on the table, his head lowered, looking listless.
Jimmy and Gordon stood outside the window. Jimmy looked at Joseph and asked, "You did it?"
Gordon: "No, Kerry came before he could. He found Hughes and took over Joseph."
Jimmy turned to look at Gordon. His expression had always been bad, and now he was expressionless. It was much different from before. No one wanted to have their case interfered with. Jimmy asked, "Hughes agreed?"
Gordon nodded. Jimmy patted Gordon and hooked his hands. The two walked to the side. Jimmy had already confirmed that there were no surveillance cameras in this corner. He lowered his head slightly and whispered in front of Gordon: "Gordon, Don't blame Hughes. What he arranged for me was to solve the bombing case at all costs. Maybe he thought that the interrogation by the Counter-Terrorism Bureau could solve the problem faster. You also know that the Counter-Terrorism Bureau was branched off from there. When it comes to interrogation, they More Professional."
Gordon's eyes narrowed and then recovered. He nodded, and the two returned to the window.
After a while, Kerry brought two people over, one holding a briefcase and the other holding a box.
Kerry came to them: "You two, it will be very ugly to wait here. You'd better wait below."
Gordon glanced at Jimmy, nodded, and left without replying. Now that we have reached this point, there is no such thing as human rights. Staying will only make yourself more uncomfortable.
Although he has watched a lot of interrogations in movies, Jimmy has never seen it with his own eyes. He originally wanted to see it and learn how to do it, but Gordon had already left, and he could not stay any longer. He followed Gordon and left the area where the interrogation room was. floor.
Although you can still observe through your mind's eye, it's not interesting if you can only see black figures.
Gordon and Jimmy sat in a daze in the conference room. Each took a newspaper and quickly read it. Gordon was really tired of waiting. He said hello to Jimmy and went to the command center. Kerry would definitely report to Noah when he got the information. Maybe the command center was the fastest place to get the information.
In fact, Jimmy really wants to go, but Noah asked him to come back and wait for news before. It's better not to hang around in front of him if nothing happens for the time being, otherwise it will be troublesome if he gets angry.
Jimmy was so bored that he fell asleep lying on the conference table until someone came over and pushed him.
"Hey, Director Watson asked me to give this to you. You can only look at it here, and you can't take it away." After the visitor woke up Jimmy, he opened a laptop and placed it in front of him. Jimmy thanked him and left the meeting. room.
Jimmy looked at the time and saw that it was almost time to get off work. Nearly three hours had passed since he gave Noah the note. Noah was really efficient.
Open the folder on the desktop. Inside are some call log files. The files previously provided by the NSA are in this format, and next to them are several photo formats.
Jimmy opened the photo first. Good guy, in order to prevent problems, they directly organized the data and exported the photo, which also avoided modifications.
Alan Tudyk was the deputy editor-in-chief of a certain news station. This was his personal information. Jimmy looked around and found nothing special. Why was it provided separately?
The second picture is a list of his cell phone call records. Noah obviously knows what Jimmy is thinking. All the call records he extracted are between the time when the two videos were played on the news station. Jimmy said before that the first video was If it was provided by Gangster Revenge, then the second video must have been remembered by the provider after seeing the first video, so it must have been during this period of time that he contacted the deputy editor.
Open the picture at the back, yes, there are three pictures, corresponding to the deputy editor's mobile phone, home phone, and office phone.
After Jimmy read the information, he started to play the call recording. The sound playback effect on the laptop was not very good. Jimmy walked to the device that Gordon and the others had brought before, found a headset and plugged it into the laptop. This time he could hear the call record clearly. .
When it was almost time to get off work, Gordon came over to inform Jimmy to get off work. Before Jimmy finished listening, he asked Gordon and the others to leave first. He continued to listen. He said that it was really boring to listen to the phone calls during work, because Deputy Editor Allen He said a lot of words that Jimmy had never heard of before. His English was very poor. After crossing industries, he didn't have the ability to recognize many words at all. Jimmy was very upset listening to the recording. Many times he wondered if he was listening to a foreign language.
Jimmy now realizes how painful it was for Gordon and his team to listen to the month-long phone recording of investigative reporter Ax a few days ago. He didn't know how they managed it in the first place. Could they understand every word?
