Jimmy returned to the bureau. The informant Shiqiu given by Lu Yinzi has not yet called Jimmy. From the current point of view, there should be no results. There is no rush. After all, he is an informant, and protecting himself is the most important thing.
The taxi was put on hold for the time being. There was still an explosion in hand to deal with. The laboratory report had been given, but Jimmy didn't look at it carefully when he came over in the morning. At that time, all I could think about was serial murder, which was not interesting.
After getting the report, the composition of the explosives was determined. Ammonium nitrate explosives accounted for the main proportion, and a small amount of C4 remained. It was consistent with the composition of the explosives described by the crew's blaster Bill Lawrence, so there was nothing special.
Jimmy contacted the NYPD and went to the detention center to talk to Bill Lawrence. There were channels and vouchers for purchasing explosives, but they were all in Los Angeles.
Jimmy returned to the bureau and contacted the Los Angeles FBI office. They helped to verify and make sure that all the information matched. They finally decided to end the case in an accident. As for how long Bill would be sentenced, that was not Jimmy's business.
Jimmy wrote a closure report and submitted it to Hughes for review. After confirming that there was no problem, he directly contacted the prosecutor's office to submit the report. The rest was for them to run the process.
The crew has been waiting for a few days. Due to an explosion accident, the crew had no choice but to suspend production, although everyone was very anxious. Jimmy will notify NYPD after he gets settled, and they will contact the crew.
Jimmy has solved the explosion in the past two days, but the kidnapping of the child in Nia has not been solved yet. It has been a week, and now the hope of recovery is very slim.
Although Jimmy has not dealt with many kidnapping cases, the FBI information is very complete. The best rescue time is 48 hours after the kidnapping. After this time, for children, the probability of accidents greatly increases.
Now Agent Kimberly Rice and Nia are more motivated to track down the kidnappers. As for the kidnapped children, if they haven't been raped yet, finding them is of course the best result.
Now their tracking location has been from New York to New Jersey, through New York State, and then to Massachusetts. They also know that the police and FBI have been chasing behind them, so they have been running in circles while fleeing north. When they communicated on the phone last night, Nia and the others were still tracking the traces of the car. They used the authority of the FBI to coordinate with the Boston FBI office to assist in the investigation and surveillance. However, the final location of the kidnapped car had not yet been determined.
Originally Jimmy wanted to help, but they were getting further and further away, making it impossible for Jimmy to intervene even if he wanted to help. After moving across state lines, many things are very troublesome and require the coordination of multiple departments. It makes little difference whether or not Jimmy is on site for such matters. Agent Lys is a senior agent, and she is familiar with this coordination process. Jimmy is still far behind in this aspect.
All Jimmy could do was call Nia frequently, cheering them on and offering anything but assistance.
It has been two days, and there is still no progress in the murder of the homeless man over Chuck's side. The corresponding surveillance and surrounding investigations have been done for two or three rounds, and there has been no way to identify the possible suspect. This is also true for Jimmy. within the scope of judgment.
None of the gunmen who can use silencers are simple. Most criminals basically use ordinary pistols. If they pursue silence, they will also use daggers, machetes and the like. Being able to use silencers means that they at least There is a black market channel for obtaining silencers. Silencers are controlled firearm accessories, and most people are really confused about them.
This kind of professional gunman usually has very clear ideas. He must have thought about how to avoid exposing himself in advance, just like the taxi driver's gunman. If Nick hadn't obtained the surveillance from the roadside store through personal channels, After taking the photo, it is basically impossible for his face to be seen by traffic surveillance.
Jimmy looked at the time and saw that it was still early. He got up and left the office and drove to the Bronx. Luyinz's informant was too calm. Although Jimmy guessed that he might not be an informant but an undercover agent, his investigation was indeed too long. He couldn't wait and went directly to the Bronx to give him another shot. Call me.
According to the speed at which he arrived at the coffee shop in half an hour last time, the informant Seventeen probably lived nearby. In order not to delay things, it was better to get there first before contacting him. Jimmy came outside the coffee shop again, and this time he paid special attention when parking. He parked in the parking space on the roadside, away from the cheating fire hydrant.
Jimmy got out of the car, looked around, and then called Seventeen. However, he directly pressed the button and did not answer. It seemed that the timing was not very good.
Jimmy smoked a cigarette and waited. A few minutes later, he received a text message from another mobile phone number, "There are already clues, but they haven't been confirmed yet. Please don't contact me while you wait for news."
Okay, it was a waste of time, but Shi Qi is really professional. He even changed his mobile phone to send text messages. It was probably his own anonymous phone. This also made Jimmy believe in his own judgment more and more. This Seventeen may really be a long-term undercover agent in the bureau.
There is no doubt that Seventeen is very good. Just relying on a photo and map survey provided by Jimmy, he can find some clues, which is more than what Jimmy and Nick can get. Of course, the main reason is that Jimmy and the others can only use standard handling methods and follow the rules. In many cases, as long as the person asking is unwilling to tell, they will get nothing.
Shiqi probably directly used gang members who were more reliable for him to investigate, so that the people covered in this way could usually get the most accurate information. After all, they were all local gangsters, and their relationship network was far away in the local area. It's much better than asking random people at the FBI.
Jimmy threw away the cigarette butt and got into the car to go back. When his phone rang, Jimmy glanced at it and picked it up.
Jimmy: "What's the matter? Razor." Razor is the Latin King's little boss that Jimmy found before, and he dealt with him twice.
Razor: "Do you have time? Let's meet."
Jimmy looked at his watch: "Half an hour, by the lake in Central Park." After that, he hung up the phone.
As the leader of a gang, he took the initiative to call Jimmy. There must be some trouble. Razor had helped Jimmy twice before. In any case, he owed him a favor. No matter what it was, it was always best to meet and listen to his problem. It is as it should be.
Although he decided to meet, Jimmy didn't want to give up the initiative. Letting Razor decide the time and location was definitely not as good as deciding it himself. Moreover, there were many people in Central Park and the environment was complicated, so he could avoid some troubles, such as being ambushed. As long as Jimmy gets in position early and observes the people around him, he can basically avoid a lot of dangers.
Jimmy sat on a bench by the lake wearing sunglasses. He had already observed the surrounding area in advance and was basically sure that there was no one with any special behavior. He held a newspaper in front of him and started reading. In fact, he didn't read the contents of the newspaper at all, but continued to observe the people around him through the newspaper.
Shazhao changed into a set of clothes, leather shoes, a casual suit, a hat to cover his hair, and a pair of rimless glasses. Just looking at his current image, he didn't look like a gang leader. He looked like an ordinary person no matter how he looked. of office workers.
Jimmy put down the newspaper, looked at Razor, and then raised his right hand. After seeing Jimmy, Razor came over and sat next to him.
Jimmy continued to hold the newspaper in front of him and asked in a low voice: "Tell me, what's the matter with calling me out?"
Razor leaned back in his chair and spread his arms over the back of the bench, "Jimmy, I need help."
Jimmy: "Talk about things."
Razor: "Someone wants to declare war on us, not on me, but on the Latin Kings. The other party is a new gang formed ten years ago, Trinidad."

Jimmy frowned and turned to look at Razor: "Are you sick?"
Razor turned to look at Jimmy, then back toward the lake. Jimmy continued: "It is your own business to declare war between gangs. I am the FBI, not your thug. Remember your own identity."
Razor: "There must be a reason why I came to you."
Razor reached out and took out a note from the inner pocket of his suit and handed it to Jimmy, "We got the news that Serra, the big boss in Trinidad, had contact with some people some time ago. It's just that no one would care about what Serra and the others said. It’s just a small gang with not many people, but the people he came into contact with belonged to Azte, a gang on the US-Mexico border. I think you can guess what their main business is.”
Jimmy reached for the note and there were only two names on it, Serra and Barrio.
Jimmy was not impressed by the gangster name Azite, but what Razor said about the gangsters on the US-Mexico border made him feel very bad. He put the note into his pocket: "Do you have any information about the Azite gang?"
Razor: "They started as a small gang in California, and later expanded to New Mexico and Texas. Their main business is smuggling and drug trafficking. They have many gunmen and strong force. They have made a name for themselves near the border in a short period of time. This The people from Trinidad contacted them probably to expand their sales channels. My people can't get detailed information for the time being. We are just a small gang in New York and are not able to get detailed information."
Jimmy: "Say what you want."
Razor: "Just saying it in advance, if..." He paused, leaning back on the chair and looking up at the tree crown above, "I'm just leaving a way out for myself."
Jimmy turned to look at Shao Shao. His expression seemed complicated and there was no sense of relaxation at all, "Your request."
Razor put down his arms, sat down and looked at Jimmy: "If something unexpected happens, I want to survive."
Jimmy: "I understand. Are you sure? Once we intervene, you will completely become a traitor in their eyes, and you may live in their pursuit for the rest of your life."
Razor took a deep breath, then spit it out: "I'm just a small person, I can't think too much about the future."
When a gang declares war, it's okay if it's just the gangsters below. After all, no matter whose gang it is, it needs the soldiers below. But if the leaders at all levels are defeated, they will definitely be treated as a thorn in the flesh unless they run away and hide their names.
The Latin Kings are different from gangs such as the Mafia. They themselves are composed of many small gangs, and there is no close hierarchical relationship. Now it seems that Razor and his small gang should be one of the targets of the other party. . Moreover, this Trinidad gang seems to have grown a bit too fast. A gang that has only been established for a few years has the strength to annex other gangs. They are very dangerous. You need to go back to Lu Yinzi to check the information. By the way Also check to see if what Razor said is true.
Jimmy folded the newspaper, stood up and straightened his clothes, "I know." After saying that, he turned and left the bench. Razor was still sitting on the bench. Jimmy turned to look at him from a long distance away, but he still didn't leave.
Jimmy returned to the station and found Lu Yinzi, "Lu Yinzi, do you have any plans after get off work? Have a drink?"
Luyinzi looked at Jimmy, he blinked, "Is something wrong?"
Jimmy smiled: "A little thing."
Lu Yinzi: "ok."
In the evening, Jimmy and Luyinz went to the bar next to Jimmy's apartment.
Jimmy came to the bar, knocked on the counter and shouted, "Two whiskeys, Woody."
Bartender Woody looked up at Jimmy and said with a smile: "You came very early today, Jimmy. As per the old rules?"
Jimmy nodded, Woody poured two glasses of whiskey, and Jimmy walked to the table next to him and sat down opposite Luyinz.
Lu Yinzi: "You are very familiar with it. It seems that you spend a lot of time here."
Jimmy smiled and said, "My apartment is right next to it. It's more convenient here, and it's also cleaner here."
Luyinzi took a sip of whiskey and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Jimmy: "Razor came to see me today, Serra of Trinidad declared war on them."
Lu Yinzi: "This is normal. This kind of thing often happens among small gangs."
Jimmy: "But Razor wants me to step in and save him if necessary."
Lu Yinzi frowned: "Is it so serious?"
Jimmy nodded: "According to him, Trinidad has contacted the Azit gang on the US-Mexico border and may receive strong military support."
Lu Yinzi took a breath and said, "Someone is trying to enter New York again. This group of people can't stop."
Jimmy: "I'm not familiar with gangs. After much thought, I still need to confirm their information with you. Shazhao is a smart man. He can find me in advance to arrange an escape route for himself. It is considered the right choice." Is he useful to you? If the worst comes to worst."
Lu Yinzi nodded: "Although it is not very useful, it is still possible to serve as a witness. I know what you mean. I will check it tomorrow. If it really comes to that point, I think he will not refuse our request. ." After speaking, Lu Yinzi smiled in a low voice and continued: "You kid, how come everyone who comes in contact with you has some problem? People like Shazhao can come to you, I really don't know how to say that you are trustworthy. Or you seem to be easier to fool."
Jimmy also smiled, "Whether he trusts me or lies to me, it actually doesn't matter, as long as he is willing to bear the consequences of being discovered by me."
Lu Yinzi also nodded: "Yes, as long as he is not really stupid, he probably won't lie to you too much, but don't believe him, it's probably just a smoke bomb. This guy has a very good mind. If he wants to prepare for the future There is absolutely no way there is only one path for you."
Jimmy: "I don't care, just treat him as a favor for helping him before. Besides, he kills two birds with one stone. You will definitely need him there. Anyway, he has been the boss for a long time and has everything he has in his hands." There should be quite a few.”
Lu Yinzi picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "Well, let's be prepared this time. If necessary, we can serve both sides in one pot."
The two of them drank and chatted casually. After a while, Lu Yinzi put down his glass and left.
Jimmy sat on the edge of the bar with a wine glass, "Woody, have another drink."
The bartender Woody made a very good impression on Jimmy. He was good at talking and telling things. The key was that Jimmy looked familiar to him, but he couldn't remember who he was. But he was definitely someone he had seen before. A character in some movie or TV series.
In fact, now Jimmy no longer cares about the characters appearing in the movies and TV series he has watched before appearing in this world. For him, a normal life is enough. Even if they are the protagonists or supporting roles in previous movies and TV series, so what?
For Jimmy now, nothing really worries him, not even Noah Watson from the Counter-Terrorism Agency. As Jimmy stays in this world longer and longer, he feels more and more that he doesn't need to care about too many things, and his mentality has changed too much from before.
Just live a normal life, this is your second life, enjoy your life, enjoy your career, and live this life happily is the goal you should pursue.
