In the city, where is the least crowded place at night? Many people may think of it as a park, but for New York, the cemetery area is probably the least crowded area.
Jimmy and Alison's surveillance car followed the taxi to Glendale, Queens. It was very close to the cemetery. If Jimmy had to choose, he would definitely not be happy to live next to the cemetery, but it seems that this place in the United States Many people don't care, at least the housing prices here are not much lower than next door.
The taxi stopped, and the man they were following got out of the car. Instead of walking into the adjacent building, he continued walking on the sidewalk. Jimmy and the others couldn't follow him by car, so they had no choice but to get out of the car and continue to follow up.
After Alison got off the car, she walked side by side with Jimmy. At least it seemed more normal for two people to walk like this than one behind the other. Tracking is actually very difficult. It needs to be at a distance, and at the same time, the field of view must not be lost, and it must be natural, so that the person in front will not notice abnormalities when they suddenly turn their heads. All of these require training.
】
Alison is a senior surveillance officer and is no stranger to tracking, while Jimmy studied at the FBI Academy and got good grades. What's even more exaggerated is that when the person in front of you suddenly enters a house around a corner or something, He didn't have to run over to prevent losing his vision like other surveillance personnel. He looked more like a normal passerby.
The person in front looked left and right as he walked, and suddenly turned into the alley next to him. Just as Alison was about to speed up and follow her, Jimmy stretched out his hand to pull her, "Don't worry." Jimmy had already seen the person entering the alley and stopped. Instead of walking inside, he stopped at the entrance of the alley.
After waiting for a while, he walked out of the alley and looked to the left and right. There were only two people on the sidewalk, Jimmy and Alison, and there was nothing unusual about them. Only then did he confirm that no one was following him. When Jimmy and the others walked past him, he Then he turned and walked into the alley.
Jimmy walked forward for more than ten meters and then turned around. He walked quietly to the entrance of the alley and looked into the alley. Before he could see everything in the alley clearly, two harsh "bang bang" shots were heard first. Come on, Jimmy ran over quickly. There was a shed not far from the trash can, and the person who just came in was bending down to enter the shed.
"FBI, don't move." Jimmy drew his gun directly. Alison, who had originally run in with Jimmy, stopped and squatted against the wall to reduce her exposure to the outside. This showed that she was experienced.
"FBI, don't move, put down your weapons and come out slowly." Jimmy took aim while walking forward, because the upper body of the man was already in the shed, and most people couldn't see his arms. Normally, he would hide next to him after shouting. Aim and wait for him to come out before getting closer, but Jimmy has no such problem.
Staring at the arm in the tent, the man bent over and struggled for a while before finally deciding to give up the resistance and said, "Don't shoot, I'll come out."
Jimmy did not relax, because he saw that the man did not put down the gun in his hand, but kept it in his hand. The barrel of the gun was very long, and it must have been equipped with a silencer.
There are no lights in the dim alley. With the diffuse moonlight and the little light scattered by the dim lights on the street, the human form can be seen, but don't even think about seeing the appearance.
The gunman slowly retreated, stood up and turned to Jimmy. When he saw Jimmy alone in the alley, he probably felt that he still had a chance, and suddenly raised his hand and pointed the gun at Jimmy.
Jimmy kept watching his movements. When he saw him raising his hand, he immediately fired. At the same time, he moved sideways to avoid the opponent's gun line. "Bang!" The opponent only fired one shot and was knocked down by Jimmy with two shots. Of course, Jimmy did not Instead of aiming directly at his head, he shot one in the right shoulder and one in the abdomen. This man was the gunman Jimmy had been chasing for so long. Although killing him directly would indeed avenge Seventeen, it would result in the previous victims having no testimonies, which would be very troublesome when they were settled.
The pistol fell to the ground. Although the gunman did not fall to the ground, he grabbed his right shoulder with his good left hand as a reflex and shouted "Ah~~~" at the same time.
"Don't move." Jimmy went over to handcuff him without impulsiveness this time. Behind him was Alison who was squatting and observing him. While giving instructions to the gunman, Jimmy slowly aimed at him and moved towards him.
"Alison, come here and help me." Jimmy reached out and grabbed the gunman's hands and twisted them behind him. Alison ran over, took out the handcuffs from Jimmy's back and put them on him. Only then did Jimmy have his hands completely free, and took out the handcuffs. Put on the disposable gloves in your pocket and conduct a thorough pat-down of the shooter.
The gunman didn't have many dangerous items on him. He only had a spare magazine, which was of course full of bullets, and a small jump knife in his pants pocket. The blade was a little over 10cm long. However, this was also an illegal knife.
All that's left is a mobile phone, a wallet, a bunch of keys, and some coins. These were all found by Jimmy and placed on the ground. For special times and occasions, there is no other way. Let's deal with them temporarily. There is really no bag to hold them.
The car is not here, and the first aid kit in the equipment bag cannot be used. Jimmy can only let the gunman sit on the ground next to him, while Alison watches him.
Jimmy asked Alison to contact the surveillance vehicle and call an ambulance. Then he went to the shed next to him and gently opened the door curtain. Inside, there was a homeless man lying on the ground. Jimmy did not continue to check because the sound of police sirens came from the entrance of the alley. There were also police lights flashing.
"NYPD, don't move." Two policemen stood at the entrance of the alley with their guns aimed inside, and the flashlights in their hands were already shining.
"FBI, don't shoot. FBI." Jimmy shouted twice before the police walked into the alley.
After going through the standard procedures, checking documents, and confirming what happened, the NYPD police notified the dispatch center and arranged for two more police units to come over so that they could block the alley and prevent other people from coming.
Jimmy called the forensics department here at the FBI. Even though it was midnight, there were still people on duty who could come to provide support, but there were not many people, only one person.
Jimmy looked at the dead homeless man and couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded. He wanted to kill the taxi driver, but now he seemed to have the wrong target. Chuck's homeless man seemed to have been killed accidentally by himself.
Looking at the time, it was already past 1 o'clock in the morning. Jimmy thought for a moment, no, he was so busy, how could he let old man Chuck sleep so easily. He took out his mobile phone and dialed Chuck's number directly.
The ringing lasted for more than ten seconds before Chuck picked up the phone: "Jimmy, what's the matter?"
It didn't sound like there was any anger in his voice. It was a mistake. It seemed that the old man Chuck had a very strong receptive ability. He didn't feel angry even if he was woken up in the middle of the night.
Jimmy: "You've got a pretty good dick, the bum one."
Chuck: "Say."
Jimmy: "I just caught a gunman. He just shot a homeless man. Now he has gone to the hospital for emergency treatment accompanied by the NYPD."
Chuck: "Anything else?"
Jimmy: "No, I just want to tell you that this person is waiting for me to interrogate him. If he is indeed related to your two cases of rape, you can also participate when the time comes, or you can directly bring the crime and deal with it."
Chuck: "Got it." After saying that, he hung up the phone. Okay, it does look like he's a little irritated, Jimmy chuckled. He is still waiting at the scene for the forensic investigators to be in place, and it seems that he will have little chance to sleep tonight.
By the time the forensics department personnel completed the investigation of the scene and all the evidence had been collected and sorted, Alison and the forensics department personnel returned to the station, while Jimmy went directly to the hospital. The gunman was only shot twice and bled excessively, but he did not Not fatal. After confirming with the doctor, the operation was over. Currently, under the influence of anesthesia, the gunman was still in a coma, and there was no chance for him to conduct a simple interrogation.
In the morning, the gunman finally woke up. The nurse called the doctor on duty to check and confirmed that Jimmy was fine. The doctor and nurse leave, and Jimmy comes to the shooter's bedside.
Jimmy: "Dave Frank? You are under arrest." After reading the Miranda warning, Dave directly refused Jimmy's inquiry. He asked the lawyer to be present, otherwise he would not answer any questions.
Hey, it's all thanks to various TV shows and movies. This group of unlucky suspects all know exactly what they're going to do after being arrested.
He said nothing, just wait for the lawyer, and if a lawyer is present, it will be impossible to conduct a simple interrogation in the hospital ward, and he will have to be taken back to the bureau.
It was different from the previous explosions. It was a terrorist attack and many procedures and procedures could be omitted. It was not a big problem. This time it was a murder, which was a normal security incident. Serial killers are more scary, but they are also normal killings. Just eucalyptus.
He contacted Chuck again and discussed with him about borrowing two NYPD police officers to serve as guards at the police station. After Jimmy waited for them to arrive, he left the hospital and returned to the FBI office in Federal Plaza.
Jimmy: "Hughes, we caught a murderer last night. He shot a homeless man and was injured by me. He is now in the hospital."
Hughes: "Is that the taxi driver?"
Jimmy nodded: "It's very possible that I found the person based on the suspect's characteristics and monitored the suspected target through the surveillance team. But I'm a little unsure now because there were two cases of homeless people in the NYPD some time ago. The person who was shot was similar to the one who was shot last night. Although it is not yet certain whether it was done by the same person, at least it was related to a certain extent, or it was a copycat.
Now there is a troublesome thing. The suspect requires a lawyer to be present, otherwise he will not answer questions. I don't even know his address yet, so I can't search it or get a search warrant. "
Hughes: "What do you need me to do?"
Jimmy: "I want to arrange for someone to go to the apartment where he comes in and out, ask which room he is in, and then apply for a search warrant. But if we investigate like this, because the suspect does not have any confession, the judge may not sign it. The suspect's current file There was no record of the address of his apartment in the Bronx."
Hughes thought for a while, "You first need to find a way to get him to admit his residence. I will find a way to search the warrant."
Jimmy nodded and turned to leave.
