Jimmy got out of the car and discovered that their motorcade seemed to be very long. He hadn't noticed it when he was at the airport. Now it seemed that everyone involved in the hijacking had been brought here.
Jimmy, bailiff Bill, and CBP Brian were at the front. The captain got out of the car behind, followed by the co-pilot, the two stewardesses, and the patient.
Jimmy was taken to a separate glass office upstairs from the office, and the others were all separated into different offices and detention rooms. It looked like they were going to be interrogated today.
Fortunately, Jimmy and the others are relatively well treated. They are all in the office and can see each other's respective positions.
After waiting for at least half an hour, the Chicago office arranged for someone to take notes, and it seemed that the person who took notes for Jimmy was still very young, almost the same age as Jimmy. It was highly suspected that he was only a trainee agent.
It was easier for Jimmy to explain. He had never met the robbers from beginning to end. The collateral damage was the destruction of the bathroom of the plane. After rescuing the hijacker, this should not be a problem.
Oh, and the cockpit needs a full round of cleaning. Fortunately, Jimmy is using a Glock. After the bullet passes through the head, it does not have enough kinetic energy to break through the front cabin of the plane, otherwise it will be too big to punch a hole in the plane.
After Jimmy finished answering, he was left alone in the office again. Speaking of which, there were a lot of people in the Chicago office. Why did it feel like there were a little less people today? And he was assigned such a low-level agent. How can this be a high threat like a hijacking? The events do not match.
Jimmy looked upstairs and downstairs, and there weren't many people in sight. Could it be that all the senior agents were assigned to the airport to investigate? Speaking of which, other passengers must also have to check in. Could it be that they are all at the airport? Only bring back the relevant people, and prepare to let them go after asking others.
Jimmy has never investigated this kind of hijacking before. He doesn't know how long the investigation will take and what procedures need to be followed. Now he can only wait in this small office. Speaking of which, Nia is probably still being questioned. Jimmy looked around, and he took out his cell phone and called Nia.
Jimmy: "Nia, how are you? Have they made arrangements to return?"
Nia: "Not yet. Everyone needs to make a transcript. I'm still waiting."
Jimmy: "Okay, let me know when there are results. My phone has not been taken away."
Since the venue was wrong, Jimmy stopped talking and hung up the phone. He could only lean on his chair in a daze. Cell phones, guns, and suitcases are all around them. As FBI agents and the ones who solved the hijacking, no one will embarrass the three of them in these trivial matters. Not only Jimmy, but Bill and Brian were also treated the same way, although they didn't shoot.
I don't know how long it took, but Jimmy fell asleep leaning on the chair. He nearly fell out of his chair when the incoming detective woke him. A suit agent was already sitting across from Jimmy.
Jimmy: "Sorry, I was a little sleepy just now."
Agent: "It's okay, let's talk. Alexander Mahone."
Jimmy: "Jimmy Young, from the Manhattan office."
Mahone: "Okay, Jimmy, coffee?" Mahone gave Jimmy a cup of coffee, bought from outside. That's good. The coffee in the FBI office tastes terrible.
Jimmy: "Thank you."
Jimmy took a sip of coffee, and Mahone took out a notepad and pen from his pocket and continued: "Let's get started. Jimmy, you're going to Las Vegas? What are you doing?"
Jimmy: "Just got a vacation and took my girlfriend for two days. Nia Miller, nypd."
Ma Hong: "Did you notice anything unusual on the plane?"
Jimmy: "What do you mean?"
Mahone: "Emotionally disturbed, armed men, anything that might attract attention."
Jimmy: "Just spotting one or two peers."
Mahone: "But I have a record here. Someone is playing guessing the air marshal game with you. I think she is Nia. So, how many did you find?"
Jimmy: "She found three, but I only confirmed one of them, Brian from the CBP. I forgot his last name. The one I found myself was Bailiff Bill."
Mahone: "Have you been drinking?"
Jimmy: "Of course not. It's not the first time I've brought weapons on a plane. I remember the regulations. Are you questioning my professional ethics? Or do you think you treat me as a terrorist?"
Mahone: "No, no, no, don't be nervous. I'm just trying to reconstruct the entire flight. So, you are also an agent. Think about it, is there anything wrong?"
Jimmy: "Stop recording. The following words are not suitable for writing down."
Mahone closed the notepad, put the pen and the notepad into the inner pocket of his suit, and motioned for Jimmy to continue.
Jimmy: "Two or three people. The first one, the comatose patient, may have been pre-planned. The second one, the person who discovered the patient's illness. The third one, the flight attendant in first class, sorry, I seem to have been I even forgot to ask her name.”
Mahone: "Reason?"
Jimmy: "Needless to say, the first two are definitely the biggest suspects. Although the flight attendant cooperated with the three of us throughout the process, she made a serious mistake at the beginning. She even brought a person who claimed to be a doctor to request to enter the cockpit. The strange thing is They actually went in, and when she came out of the cockpit, she didn't seem particularly panicked. She just contacted the bailiff Bill in front.
I told the stewardess behind me my identity before. Her name was...Julian? Forgot, it should be this one. If they communicated, she should also know that I was in first class. Apparently there was no communication between them. And I don’t know if the airline will synchronize the list of agents on our flights with the flight attendants and pilots. "
Ma Hong nodded, "The list will not be synchronized, except that the air police will communicate in advance."
Ma Hong thought for a while and continued to ask: "How do you know that the bathroom can be connected to the cockpit?"
Jimmy: "It's very simple. You can guess. Between the first class cabin and the cockpit is the bathroom on the left and the dining area on the right. After all the cockpit doors have been replaced with bulletproof doors, the only place where you can see the cockpit is from both sides of the door. There are several cabinets blocking the dining area, and the only place you can try is the bathroom."
Mahone: "Why did you shoot him?"
Jimmy: "I'm just scared. We were still discussing whether there were other ways, but the Air Force fighter jets came out. It was a high altitude, and I didn't want to become a trapeze artist. The best way was to take a gamble. Anyway, there is only one disaster. Bandit, as long as he is killed, he will be safe."
Ma Hong: "Okay, I have no problem. We have booked a room for you, and we need you to stay here for a few more days. Someone will take you there later."
Jimmy: "No problem, it should be."
Mahone stood up, shook hands with Jimmy, and was about to leave. When he walked to his side, he stopped: "Good marksmanship, well done. Thank you." After saying that, Mahone left.
Jimmy watched Mahone leave the office. He sat down and continued to drink coffee. This day, he probably had his unlucky day again as he thought before. In the past, every bad thing happened one after another until something changed. This time, there were serial murders first, then evil spirits appeared, and then this hijacking. When will this hellish life end? !
Jimmy successfully made it from the FBI office to the place where he lives next door. He seemed to have good luck. The last time he came to Chicago for a business trip, he stayed in the same hotel. The environment was not bad. I can only say that there is sufficient funding here. Of course, if other people come to Manhattan, New York, they will probably get good treatment.
Jimmy called Nia when he arrived at the hotel. She registered the information, took notes and returned to New York. She was already home.
The next day, Jimmy received a call from Mahone early in the morning, informing him to go to the Chicago office again.
In a separate office, Jimmy saw Mahone. Ma Hong: "Sorry, I asked you to come over again. There are a few people here that you need to identify. Did you find anything unusual about them?"
Jimmy looked at the few photos handed over by Ma Hong, closed his eyes and thought about it. He shook his head: "These people are very ordinary and have no impression. What's wrong with them?"
Ma Hong: "It's just a suspicion, okay, that's all. Thank you for your cooperation."
Jimmy returned the photo to Mahone and asked, "Has there been any result from the investigation?"
Mahone: “Not yet.”
Jimmy: "Okay, then I have one last question. Where did that man get the gun? The flight attendant said he hijacked the captain with a knife, but when I saw him through the hole, he had a gun in his hand. .”
Mahone: "That's a spare gun on the flight. It's usually locked in the cockpit. He took the captain hostage and opened the lock. This guy knew very well what weapons were on the plane."
Jimmy: "I understand. It seems that the flight attendant didn't bring it up. I'm fine. Goodbye. I'm at the hotel. Call me if you need me."
Mahone nodded, and Jimmy left his office and returned to the hotel.
Mahone took out a report from the drawer. This was a ballistics report made overnight. Combining the oral accounts of Bill and Brian, who watched Jimmy shoot, they reconstructed the scene where Jimmy fired.
Since the hole is not high, Jimmy needs to squat down to aim at the head of the robber inside, and the muzzle needs to be far away from the hole to have a sufficient viewing angle. Under such an angle and line of sight, sticking to a half-crouching posture, shooting from a hole slightly larger than the bullet in a very small time window, and hitting the head with one shot, this shooting method is already a bit too magical.
Ma Hong considers himself to be a good marksman, but in such a scenario, he has absolutely no confidence in completing a fatal blow, or at least no one he knows can do this.
】
Yesterday, he had read Jimmy's basic information from the system. After getting the ballistic analysis report, he went out to investigate the eucalyptus report that Jimmy was previously responsible for. Obviously some of the contents of these files are hidden, which is normal. There are things that need to be hidden in publicly viewable files.
But even if it is public information, what this guy has done this year is not that simple. There are many people who have fallen in his hands. How many agents have not had so many achievements in decades. This is a ruthless character.
With such a record, such marksmanship, accurate judgment, extremely high tolerance, and a perfect detective record, such talents are rare.
With these records as a basis, in fact, Jimmy is basically not suspected. Even if he goes back now, it will not be a big problem, but the process is somewhat unsightly. Anyway, the bureau's funds are not provided by oneself, so let's spend them like this first.
In order to go through the process, Ma Hong forced Jimmy to stay for a few more days. Then Jimmy became depressed. He didn't dare to go out casually until he received the arrangement. If there was something that needed him to go there and he was not here, then he would go there. Simple things become complicated.
Jimmy had no choice but to make occasional phone calls and go to the hotel gym to lift irons.
A week later, Jimmy finally got the amnesty, and he could leave this hellish place. Jimmy carried the box and went to the Chicago office to sign it. The rest was up to them to handle. There is still no complete report on this case, just This part of Jimmy's investigation is over, and he can go back to work normally.
A good vacation was gone, and Jimmy bought a plane ticket and flew back to New York. While driving, Jimmy looked at the familiar city and could only lament that he was not suitable for going out. It seemed that every time he went out, something would happen.
I haven't received a call from Hughes yet. Hughes didn't say how many days of vacation he would be given before, so Jimmy was lazy. Yonia came out on the phone, but unfortunately her vacation was gone and she had to go back to work, so Jimmy had to wait until she got off work in the evening.
Speaking of which, since Nia was summoned back by her family last time, she seems to have become more and more relaxed, as if she no longer considers her family's concerns, even if she stays overnight, it doesn't matter.
After just a day's rest at home, Hughes's call came. It was a sad and short vacation that was gone. Jimmy gathered his mood and went to work honestly.
It turned out that Jimmy's bad luck was not over yet. Early the next morning when he went to work, bad news came from Lu Yinzi.
Luyinz: "Jimmy, Trinidad and Razor are taking action."
Jimmy: "It took so long to start the war? How's it going? Is Razor okay?"
Lu Yinzi: "It's just the beginning. The razor is fine, but there are three people missing on his side. There are no corpses and no reports."
Jimmy: "Okay, what do you need me to do?"
Lu Yinzi shook his head: "You don't need to act here. I'm just telling you that if Shao Shao calls you and forwards it to me, I will follow up. According to the current situation, the people on his side may insist Not much time left.”
Jimmy nodded: "I understand, he is yours, I won't take it away. Just return him a favor and stay alive."
Lu Yinzi: "Then I'm leaving. By the way, you were responsible for the plane robbery a few days ago, right? How do you feel?"
Jimmy shrugged: "I was nervous at first, but that's how it ended. There was no way to kill the robbers. There were two fighter jets flying beside me. If something really happened, I would never survive."
Lu Yinzi: "Well done, you saved more than a hundred people. I'm leaving first. Goodbye."
Jimmy sent Ruinzi out of the office, sat on the sofa and boiled a pot of water for himself to make tea. Now it's the window period again, there is no emergency news, and no urgent support cases have been received. Although Jimmy is at work, he is still fishing. Chris's desk behind him has been cleared. It seems that he will never come back. I wonder what Hughes will do next.
