Jimmy returned to the station and first went to the vehicle management department to hand in the ticket. Sure enough, he was right. He had to pay for the ticket himself without special circumstances. What a tragedy. Jimmy reluctantly took out his wallet and paid for it, leaving the vehicle management department to handle the rest.
I have been a police officer and detective for more than three years, and this is the first time I have received a fine. I have no choice but to admit that I am unlucky. If there are other reasons for the fine, you can appeal and try to see if it can be eliminated. There is nothing you can do about obstructive parking. The fire hydrant will never move on its own, it can only be that you didn't notice it.
Jimmy returned to the office depressed. After sitting for a while, Jimmy got up and came to Hughes' office. He knocked on the door. Hughes looked up and said, "Come in. Jimmy, what's the matter?"
Jimmy: "Ah, let me ask what to do with the video from the TV station that day?"
Hughes frowned, "Didn't you watch the news? The Marshals' Office held a press conference and took all the incidents to their side."
Jimmy: "But it was me who shot them in that video. I was the only one wearing a suit in that video. It was too conspicuous."
Hughes shook his head: "It's okay, I've already said hello to them, and your information won't be released. Is there anything else?"
Jimmy: "Oh, one more thing. The clues in the taxi driver's case are almost gone now. Nick has been investigating these days, but currently there are only surveillance video photos of the suspect, and no other clues have been found. It is estimated that there will not be any in the short term. What results. Also, when will Chris come back?"
Hughes: "You handle the case yourself. Chris has arranged to retire and shouldn't be back in the short term."
Jimmy couldn't help but fell silent. This was the first leader to leave him: "I understand, thank you, Hughes."
Hughes waved his hand, and Jimmy turned and left his office. He took out his mobile phone and dialed Chris's number. He didn't answer the call until it automatically hung up.
Jimmy stood in the corridor outside Hughes' office, wondering what was going on with Chris, whether there was any special trouble, and why he didn't answer the phone.
When Jimmy started to leave, Hughes' phone rang. He answered the phone, then got up and walked outside the office, "Jimmy, wait, come in."
Hughes' voice was higher, and others heard it and turned to look at his office. Jimmy glanced back and turned back to Hughes' office.
"I'm going to go to the Metropolitan Museum of Art right away. A crew filming there just had an explosion. Go and confirm what happened."
"I'll be there right away." Jimmy nodded, turned and left.
It's an explosion again, can't you be more worried? Jimmy had a toothache. He was involved in an explosion last time and it happened again this time.
"Jimmy, what's the matter?" Jones stopped Jimmy and motioned to Hughes' office with his chin.
"Someone is going to be unlucky. There was an explosion at the Metropolitan Museum. I want to go and see the scene." Jimmy replied, "By the way, does Peter know anyone from the Metropolitan Museum? If there is a need later, he may need to let him know." He helps.”
Jones: "Of course, that's what he does. You go first."
Jimmy didn't go back to his office. He went downstairs from the elevator and rushed over. He called the explosive detection personnel to meet at the scene. The Metropolis is on Fifth Avenue and 82nd Street. There are too many tourists there. If a bombing happened, it would definitely spread throughout New York instantly, and the pressure would rise all of a sudden.
Jimmy once again hated that his car had no police lights and sirens, and drove through slow traffic all the way to the outside of the Metropolitan Museum, where the NYPD had cordoned off. The NYPD is always very fast, of course, mainly because they have so many patrol officers. The largest police department in the United States is no joke.
Jimmy looked and saw that none of his people had arrived yet. He showed his ID and entered the blocked area.
Jimmy: "FBI Special Agent Jimmy Young, who's in charge here?"
A superintendent came over: "Mike Luther."
Jimmy: "How's your investigation going? What happened with the explosion?"
Mike: "We have talked with the producer and director of the crew, and the blasters have temporarily brought it under control. The explosion was the crew's supply truck. There are currently no casualties. People from the fire department are already at the inspection site. It is not yet safe. Know what exactly caused the explosion."
Jimmy nodded: "Our inspectors are on the way. They will join the investigation later. You can also tell the fire department."
Mike: "Understood, I will notify them. In addition, I just received news that the ATF has also arranged for someone to come over, but they haven't arrived yet."
Jimmy didn't care: "Okay, let's wait until the cause of the explosion is investigated. I'm going to ask some questions, okay?"
Mike nodded: "Of course, the demolitionist is temporarily locked up in the police car."
Jimmy came to the police car and opened the back door. A middle-aged man sat dejectedly in the back seat, his hands handcuffed behind his back.
Jimmy: "FBI Special Agent Jimmy, what's your name?"
The man turned to look at Jimmy, then lowered his head: "Bill Lawrence, the demolitionist on the crew."
Jimmy: "Are you in charge of all the explosives on the set?"
Bill nodded, and Jimmy continued to ask: "What kind of explosives did you prepare for filming this time? What is the quantity of each?"
Bill: "5 pounds of ammonium nitrate explosive, 1 pound of C4, 5 liters of No. 93 gasoline, two detonators, and two electronic detonators."
Jimmy: "Are the detonators and other items separated? Are they all placed on the supply truck?"
Bill nodded. Except for the first glance at Jimmy, he kept his head down and looked depressed.
Jimmy: "I understand. You may need to go to the scene to check for explosives later."
Bill nodded, and Jimmy closed the back door and left the police car.
It seems that the situation is very clear. There should be a problem with the storage of explosives. Judging from the situation of the three explosives, it should be due to an accident. Gasoline or ammonium nitrate explosives exploded and detonated C4, directly destroying a supply truck. It was blown to pieces. Fortunately, no one was near the supply truck at the time. He was just frightened and not injured. This is a blessing among misfortunes.
Jimmy waited for a while, and FBI explosive detection personnel were in place. They worked with people from the fire department to investigate the scene of the bombed car.
Seeing them busy, Jimmy was also idle. He came to the crew's position and asked, "Who is the director?"
An older-looking man raised his hand and said, "Me. Jason Segel."
Jimmy: "FBI, let's go over to the side and talk."
Walking to a less crowded area, Jimmy asked: "Mr. Siegel, I would like to ask, what scene are you going to shoot today and do you need to carry so many explosives? Have you reported it to the New York City Government?"
Siegel: "It has been reported, but the explosion scene is not here. Here is only the framing and a few on-site close-ups. The explosion scene was used when we went to the beach in the afternoon to shoot. In order to save time, we shot it here after we finished it." It will go directly to the next location, so all the materials have been transported. The explosion plan is to blow up an old bus, and permission has been obtained from the police department.”
Jimmy: "Is your demolitionist, Bill Lawrence, a certified demolitionist?"
Siegel: "Yes, we hired the demolitionists from Los Angeles. Our crew mainly filmed in the studio in Los Angeles, and they only came to New York for part of the filming."
Jimmy nodded: "Okay, I will check the information with the police station, thank you. Also, do your crew have any other explosives?"
Siegel shook his head: "Bill manages all explosives, and others cannot interfere with his affairs."
Jimmy: "Okay, another question, what is your movie about?"
Siegel: "Art theft, the thieves versus you, the FBI."
Jimmy chuckled, "It looks like we're going to be tricked by thieves again in the movie. I hope everything goes well for you in the future. OK, thank you for your cooperation." Jimmy extended his hand to shake Sigel's hand, then turned around and came to the side of the bombed car. .
"How's the investigation going?"
"On-site inspection is very troublesome. There are too many things in this truck. Now the clear explosion point has been determined, but the components of the explosives need to be returned to the laboratory for testing."
"I just had a chat with the blaster. There are 5 pounds of ammonium nitrate explosive here, 1 pound of C4, 5 liters of No. 93 gasoline, two detonators, and two electronic detonators. Please record them and go back to check whether the explosion yield is the same. The explosives matched."
"clear."
NYPD Superintendent Mike Luther brought someone over. "Jimmy, an ATF agent is here. This is Agent Johnny Bullock."
Jimmy turned to look at them. He smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Johnny Bullock's hand: "Johnny, we meet again."
Johnny also smiled and said to Jimmy: "What a coincidence. Jimmy, are you in charge of bombings full-time now?"
Jimmy shook his head: "No, it's just the emergency team, just come over and deal with it."
Johnny: "What's going on now?"
Jimmy: "The preliminary judgment should be that the crew's explosives stored by the blasters exploded accidentally, but the details still need a report from the laboratory to confirm. Judging from the scene, it should be possible to rule out the possibility of a terrorist attack. The explosion of the supplies truck There was no one around then, and now there are no injuries or deaths.”
Johnny nodded: "Okay, you guys can handle this case."
Jimmy: "Sorry, I made your trip in vain. Where are your people?"
Johnny: "I know I've asked them to go back after you arrived at the scene. I just came to the scene to confirm. Okay, I'll go back first. Goodbye, Jimmy. Oh, one last thing, the case was handled beautifully last time. Take it. I didn’t know that there was such a complicated situation until the report.”
Jimmy laughed loudly, "Thank you for the compliment. Actually, I was lucky, but the case took too long. It took me a month to complete it."
Johnny: "It doesn't matter how long it takes to get a big case done. Goodbye."
Johnny shook hands with Superintendent Mike and said goodbye. The number of people in the ATF was much smaller than that of the FBI. Such bombing cases were usually handled by whoever arrived first. Since he was late, he didn't want to worry about it so much.
The testers took the samples and returned them to the laboratory. The scene was also taken over by the NYPD. They took pictures of the exploded car and the wreckage scattered on the ground. Jimmy explained the situation to the crew and asked them not to leave New York for the time being and wait for notification from the bureau. He went to the police station or police station to cooperate with the investigation, and then returned. In this case, there is no need to take away everyone on the crew. They have reported it. This time is most likely an accident.
Jimmy came back and gave a verbal report to Hughes. The case was not a big problem and there was no need to dispatch the anti-terrorism team to deal with it.
Hughes also agreed with Jimmy's reasoning. The case will be handed over to Jimmy. If it is determined to be just an accident, the case can be directly submitted to the prosecutor for the process. If there are no special circumstances.
After talking about the case, Hughes said: "Jimmy, I got a call from the SOG of the Marshals Service. I hope you can come over and share your opinions."
Jimmy raised his eyebrows, "Do I have to go?"
Hughes: "It's your own opinion."
Jimmy thought for a while: "Is it because of the last mission?"
Hughes nodded, Jimmy: "They've called you, so let's go. Is there an appointment time?"
Hughes: "You can make your own arrangements and inform them in advance in the next few days."
Jimmy: "Understood. Then I'll go back and take a look at what I'm doing now, and I'll tell you after I make arrangements."
There is still a lot of cooperation between the bailiffs and the FBI, but it is mainly cooperation between the bailiffs and law enforcement personnel. In theory, even if special teams like SOG want to cooperate and communicate, they have to contact SWAT or HRT. It was probably caused by the battle at the crossroads a few days ago. Jimmy was too cunning. Now all the gunmen's fatal injuries were caused by him. It was because of this SOG that they came up with the idea of this exchange. They must have the surveillance video of the intersection, and they probably asked Jimmy to go there for a drill.
It's not a big problem. As long as the performance is not too shocking, there shouldn't be any problem.
Instead of returning to his office, Jimmy turned directly to Ruiz's office. "Dong dong" Jimmy knocked on the door and walked in directly.
Ruiz: "Have you met him?"
Jimmy nodded: "He is not an ordinary informant."
Ruiz: "Don't ask, this is not something you should know. What did he say?"
Jimmy: "Took the suspect's photo and didn't say anything."
Ruiz: "Okay, then you just wait for him to notify you about this clue and continue investigating the others. What else is there?"
Jimmy shook his head: "No, I just came over to thank you."
Ruiz: "You're welcome. By the way, Renner from the Dixie family has already left New York. The surveillance team followed him in a car to DC. He was never found again. The tracking failed."
Jimmy gritted his teeth and took a breath, "It doesn't matter if you take advantage of him. There will be plenty of opportunities to find him in the future. Where is the paparazzi?"
Ruiz: "It's confirmed, it's the video that Reina gave you. Reina should have recognized you. He probably investigated your information after his little brother died."
Jimmy nodded: "I understand. It seems that he is persistent and just wants to cause trouble for me. Let's leave it like that for now. It doesn't matter. I'll go back first and thank your brother for me."
Ruiz waved his hand, and Jimmy turned and left, returning to his office. Things seem to be going wrong lately. Behind the scenes, there is Reina who is intent on causing trouble for himself. He must find an opportunity to deal with this guy. It is too troublesome. Jimmy is not the kind of person who likes to be in the limelight. It would not be a good thing if he really caused something big and made the news.
Jimmy looked at the information in his hand. Currently, there are only two unfinished cases, a taxi driver case and today's bombing case. It seems that he can have some time to fish in SOG this time. Yes.
Jimmy went to find Nia after get off work and talked about his itinerary for the next few days. He directly booked a flight for the next day in the evening to fly to Alexandria, Louisiana in the south. Paul Foley of SOG A special person was brought to pick up Jimmy outside the airport. They would go directly to the William F. Degan Tactical Operations Center and would not stop in the city.
