Jimmy's plan to skip work failed. At 9 o'clock in the morning, while he was sleeping soundly, Hughes called: "Jimmy, come to my office later."
Jimmy: "Hughes, are you anxious? I just experienced a night attack last night and I just lay down."
Hughes paused: "Okay, come to my place first in the afternoon."
Jimmy put down the phone and went back to sleep. Hughes will ignore it for now, it won't be a big deal anyway.
In the afternoon, Jimmy arrived at Federal Square on time and went to Hughes' office first.
Jimmy: "Hughes, what do you want from me?"
Hughes: "Let's talk about what happened early this morning."
Jimmy: "We have a leak here. Ruinz is already investigating. I was protecting a witness, but just one day after arriving at the safe house, six people came to the safe house and prepared to shoot the witness."
Hughes frowned: "Lu Yinzi did not report this matter."
Jimmy: "No one likes OPR. If they are asked to investigate, the whole team will be in chaos. Lu Yinzi can handle it by himself."
Hughes nodded. He had nothing to say to Jimmy about this matter. He could just go to Luyinzi later. "I asked you to come here to introduce you to two people, whom you also know. Let's go to your office."
Hughes and Jimmy came to the office together. There were already two people inside, one was an acquaintance, Alexander Mahone from the Chicago office, and the other was a black girl, well, the black eldest sister, she looked like she should be older than Jimmy.
Hughes: "Alexander Mahone, the former senior detective in the Chicago office, succeeded Chris as head of the homicide unit. This is Phylicia Long, Mahone's partner. This is Jimmy Young, who was temporarily acting as the homicide unit. .”
Jimmy: "Welcome to Manhattan, Mahone. See you again."
Ma Hong: "We meet again and it's a pleasure to cooperate."
Hughes: "Jimmy, cooperate with Mahone to understand the situation here first. If you have any questions, you can come to me."
Mahone: "ok."
Hughes turned and left. It seemed that Mahone and the others had already arrived in the morning, and items and computers were already placed on the two desks.
Jimmy: "It seems that we are very destined. You are actually transferred to Manhattan."
Ma Hong: "It's just a transaction, OK, what is the current plan of our team?"
Jimmy: "No."
Mahone: "What? How is it possible?"
Jimmy shrugged: "You have to know that the NYPD has the largest number of police officers in the United States, and they handle most of the cases themselves. This is the homicide team, and they usually receive relatively few cases, so in addition to normal homicide cases, we Also responsible for in-bureau support tasks.”
Ma Hong: "Where's the eucalyptus from before?"
Jimmy: "The taxi driver and the homeless man attacked serially for more than a month. It ended and the gunman died. The bullet mark test confirmed that his three guns were the guns involved. The evidence was conclusive. Unfortunately, no prosecution was possible in the end. .”
Ma Hong was a little speechless: "Then what are you doing now?"
Jimmy: "In the past two days, I have been assisting organized crime, occasionally doing witness protection and the like. Oh, before, I was occasionally seconded to travel to other offices to handle some cases, and to cooperate with other departments, such as Marshals, counter-terrorism bureau, that sort of thing.”
Ma Hong: "Okay, let me take a look at the eucalyptus from before."
Jimmy nodded, "I've got some tea over there, you can do it yourself."
With a new leader, it seems that he won't have to look to Hughes to take the blame in the future, and Jimmy feels a little more relaxed. However, it seems that this new leader is very strong and may not be as easy to deal with as Chris.
Jimmy had talked to Hughes before when he was at the DC headquarters in Washington, DC, but he didn't expect Hughes to be so quick, and his transfer was completed in just a few days.
One thing that is certain now is that his handling ability is indeed very strong. There were so many things behind the hijacking, and it is not that simple to deal with them bit by bit. Coordination and analysis skills are both very important. I guess he will be taken care of this time. It also cost a lot to get to Manhattan Hughes.
Jimmy turned on the computer and checked the system first to make sure there was nothing wrong. Then he opened his notebook and started drafting. There was no way around it, the early morning report still had to be written.
Mahone and Felicia also sat down. They were in the Chicago office before, but now they are in Manhattan. Naturally, they need to get familiar with it again, and they also need to be familiar with the situation in New York. At least give them an approximate location, and don't just check the map temporarily. . The two of them must have had a hard time. Jimmy looked at the map many times during his internship.
After get off work in the evening, Jimmy made an appointment with Mahone and Felicia for a drink. They were still staying in a hotel, so they had two drinks at a bar next to Federation Square and talked about topics that were not convenient to talk about in the office. Ma Hong is a nice person. Although he looks serious, he is still easy to talk to.
Judging from Felicia's attitude towards Mahone, she respects Mahone very much. They may have been partners for a long time, and now it seems that Mahone has definitely surpassed the stage of respect in Felicia's heart and entered the stage of reverence. Even the stage of worship.
Jimmy was also very interested in Mahone. He chatted and secretly inquired about some of his past affairs, but he basically didn't get much effective information.
They chatted for a while, and Nia came over after get off work. Jimmy introduced both parties, and Nia also joined the chat.
After it was over, Jimmy reluctantly sent Nia home, and then went back to guard the empty room alone. Nia's family is too strict. It's okay to cheat occasionally, but most of the time she has to go home honestly. It seems that although she is a little crazy, she is still very honest and obedient.
Mahone was definitely not that happy when he came to Manhattan this time. You must know that he knew everything well in Chicago. It would be troublesome to readjust to a new environment, but he would not be particularly resistant. You must know that in New York Although both offices in Chicago and Chicago are local offices, their levels have been improved.
But what surprised him was that he originally thought that there would be a lot of trouble with the gangsters in New York, but now it seems that the NYPD is very powerful. Most of the gangsters have been stopped by them. Before, the homicide team only had Jimmy. A junior agent did it.
There was nothing to say all night. The next day when Jimmy came to the office, he received a call from Lu Yinzi. After telling Ma Hong, Jimmy went out to find Lu Yinzi.
Luyinzi saw Jimmy coming in, "Close the door."
Jimmy raised his eyebrows, something was wrong. "What's wrong?"
Luyinz: "Razor is a bastard! I don't know what method he used to hack Azte's shipment to Trinidad. I asked why they would directly declare war on him. This bastard didn't do anything until last night. After telling him, I changed his place again."
Jimmy: "Damn it, are we an accomplice? Where is that batch of goods?"
Luyinz: "Zhao didn't say anything. He said this was his last life-saving capital. I don't know how much that batch of goods was. Razor said it was worth more than one million. Azite and Trinidad must have gone crazy this time. .”
Jimmy: "That shouldn't be the case. If they cared about that batch of goods, they should have grabbed the razor for interrogation, but they came six at a time to silence them."
Lu Yinzi: "Well, it was indeed silenced. They lost this batch of goods. It's just a hard time and it won't shake the foundation. But they must get rid of the hidden danger of Razor because he got Azite's transportation route. Since If it is lost once, there is no guarantee that the subsequent route will be safe."
Jimmy: "This kid Razor is a real talent. Did he find it by luck, or did he get it by planting an insider?"
Lu Yinzi: "I didn't force him to confess. We have the man in hand and we have plenty of time to drain him. Calling you here is to give you an explanation and let you know why there are people who persist in chasing him."
Jimmy thought for a while and asked with a smile: "How about... I go talk to Razor? My favor has been repaid, and he still has to pay a price if he still wants to live."
Lu Yinzi really didn't expect Jimmy's bad attitude to come out so quickly. He thought about it, and finally agreed and gave Jimmy his address.
Jimmy went out and was about to enter the elevator. He suddenly remembered that he had a boss and still had to go through the process. Then he turned back to the office to report to Ma Hong. Speaking of which, having a boss is not as convenient as before.
Mahone didn't interfere with Jimmy's affairs yet, he just nodded and let him go out.
Jimmy drove away, bought something to eat from Chinatown on the way, and brought half a dozen beers to Razor's third residence.
Razor was still surprised when he saw Jimmy arriving: "I didn't expect you to come again. I smell the food, thank you."
Jimmy showed off the bag he was carrying: "I've been eating pizza for a few days. For a change, I made a special trip to buy it from Chinatown."
Jimmy put the dishes on the coffee table, handed Razor a can of beer, and then took a can of Coke to drink.
After eating a little, Jimmy spoke: "Razor, you should be safe now. You should be able to guess which side those six people are from."
Razor nodded: "Have you talked to Lu Yinzi? Do you want it too?"
Jimmy: "Looks like you know what I mean."
Razor shook his head: "Jimmy, it's not that I don't want to give you face, this is the last capital I can have to turn over."
Jimmy: "I understand, you haven't reached the last step yet and you're still alive. Drink."
The two clinked the bottles, and Jimmy took a sip of Coke and continued: "You have investigated me, right?"
Razor nodded. There was nothing he couldn't say. It must be carefully considered as a fallback preparation. If he didn't even know who Jimmy was, how could he choose him as his final trump card?
Jimmy smiled and said: "It doesn't matter whether you investigate me or not, I don't care. I am a very easy-to-talk person, and as long as I don't go too far, I have no interest in killing you all. But... do you know who I hate the most? "
Razor looked at Jimmy. Although he was smiling, he felt that the atmosphere was not right.
Jimmy: "Although I have only lived for more than 20 years in my life, what I hate most are drug dogs. None of the drug dealers who fell into my hands have successfully entered the court."
Razor suddenly shuddered, and he understood that his trump card was about to overturn.
Jimmy put the tachyon on the table, leaned on the sofa with a Coke and looked at the razor: "I actually don't care what cards you have, you helped me in the past, I can return you a favor, protect you once, that's fine.
You serve as a witness to Lu Yinzi in exchange for his protection, and then you can leave safely and make a comeback elsewhere. I don't care, really. However, the batch of goods in your hand must be taken out, and you cannot touch this thing again in the future.
Razor, please cherish our friendship. "
Razor also put down the tachyon and the beer can. He looked at Jimmy, not knowing what he was thinking.
Jimmy slowly drank the Coke, crushed the can and threw it into the trash can, "Think about it carefully, don't worry, I promised to save your life, and I won't break my promise now. I'm leaving first, wish you good luck! Razor .”
】
Jimmy stood up and left the apartment, closing the door smoothly. The door on the opposite side opened. A somewhat familiar agent nodded to Jimmy and closed the door again. This time, Luyinzi arranged for a group of three people to live opposite the razor. They were transferred from the people in charge of other gangs, so they were at least a little more credible. The team he had previously arranged to deal with Trinidad and Razor could not move yet.
Jimmy returned to the office and continued to fish. Before he got off work, good news came from Luyinzi. Razor agreed and explained the batch of goods and the previous Azite gang's shipping route in exchange for a witness protection agreement. , after the testimony is over, change your identity and start living again.
There’s something about this razor! Jimmy really felt that Razor was ruthless enough and had a good brain. He could give up decisively when a real threat conflicted with the trump card of a comeback. This was a kind of courage.
After get off work, Jimmy didn't ask Mahone for a drink, but went directly to Lu Yinzi. He had already taken people to clean up the razor's mini warehouse, and everything there needed to be sorted out.
Jimmy came to the blockade, and Luyinzi stood at the door of the warehouse, the smile on his face never stopping. "Look at that row, they're all here, not a single piece is missing."
There are several tightly wrapped square bricks placed side by side on a box inside. There are no openings or leaks around it. It must have been untouched since it was brought here during transportation.
Jimmy: "What else is there to gain?"
Luyinz: "The news from Azte has some more clues. Their boss behind the scenes, Bolsa, is an old man, a white man, who is in New Mexico and is Azte's main business." The range is in Texas and I don't know why this is happening."
Jimmy shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity, it's a bit too far, I can't reach it with my hands."
Lu Yinzi: "Do you really want to fight with them? Let's just take care of our side. I will save it later and let them get busy."
Jimmy: "Forget it, do you want to beat them? Let's talk about the source of goods here. Most of them come from there. The Dixie family wants to open up channels in the front, and the Azite gang wants to get a share of the pie in the back. , the southern border is in chaos, and they haven’t even killed a few of them, so what’s the use of just relying on us to sweep up from behind, the source can’t be blocked.”
Lu Yinzi shrugged: "This is the fault of DEA, we are not specialized in this."
Jimmy: "Any other gains? By the way, what is Razor's last request?"
Lu Yinzi: "One identity, one informant fee, one compensation, I agreed."
Jimmy: "Smart people are easy to deal with. He knows what's going on."
Lu Yinzi: "What exactly did you say to him?"
Jimmy glanced at Luyinz: "None of the drug dealers I dealt with successfully entered the court."
Lu Yinzi: "I understand."
