There was nothing special about the process of Luyinz's interrogation of Serra, because he was mainly targeting Serra's organized crime scope, such as gangs, drug trafficking, etc. The reasons for terrorist attacks used by Mahone did not apply here. .
Mahone can be used because Jimmy is indeed investigating the explosion. After linking the explosion in Newark, Azter's attack on Jimmy can be completely integrated. In order to prevent the FBI from finding out the aftermath of the explosion, the mastermind arranged for someone to attack the office. Agent Eucalyptus, at least there will be no shortage of suspects.
An ordinary gangster would never be able to deal with this kind of bomb terrorist attack, even if it was just a suspicion, so it was no problem for Ma Hong to use this excuse twice, even if it was written in the report, no one could say anything.
Luyinzi just used the files that had been found out before and conducted a general interrogation of Sierra. Jimmy didn't care about the result. Since Luyinz could enter the interrogation room, Sierra would never be able to escape. To the big gangster It's not easy to deal with. This kind of small gang will definitely have no problem hunting rabbits.
Lu Yinzi's action to capture the mole is already known to almost everyone in the bureau, and Jimmy and the others are also aware of it. However, the latest progress about the mole is not clear yet, because Derek is from the OPR, so he has been arrested. It was transferred to the special team from DC, and the Manhattan opr department was temporarily isolated to avoid a situation that no one wanted to see.
I believe many people are very happy when they see the OPR being unlucky. Of course, they have to look good on the surface. Hughes bypassed some procedures and submitted the matter directly to the management. The management arranged for a deputy director to follow the case and see the final conclusion.
Although the mole has been caught, Jimmy always feels that something is wrong, because this is Manhattan. The second-in-command of a border gang can actually deal with the mole here. No matter how he thinks about it, it feels wrong. There seems to be another line looming, but the conditions are not enough. , Jimmy couldn't tell for the time being how this mole was connected to Azite's people.
Moreover, if they really have senior FBI agents as insiders, then in principle they should not be able to avoid power and money transactions. Normally, they should corrupt Lu Yinzi's organized crime team, which is to directly target them. department, rather than a purely internal agency opr.
Things are still a little strange. If we really want to pursue it, maybe Azter's second-in-command, Tim Spike, is not the final mastermind. In addition, there is another question that has not yet been confirmed. Among the people he killed, who was so important that he could let them cross the United States from the south to New York in the northeast to attack him?
The danger has not been eliminated now. It can only be said that the current problem has been solved. If the root cause is not dealt with, I will have to worry about whether they will send people over again. As long as you are a thief for a thousand days, there is no way to prevent a thief for a thousand days. People will be so nervous that they will scare themselves to death.
Jimmy was sitting in the office drinking tea, thinking about what reasons he could use to go south and solve this incident from the root.
FBI agents are no different from other professions. Even if Jimmy takes a vacation, he will not be able to quietly sneak to the border and cause so many big things. Chinese Americans are no better than whites or blacks. Their base is larger. If you put on makeup and remove all the things that reveal your identity, you can hide for a long distance without anyone noticing.
The characteristics of Chinese people are too obvious, especially near the border. There are not many Chinese people there. A Chinese person appearing on the street is like a giant panda squatting among a group of brown bears. It is very easy to be remembered. If you have done something big, , the suspicion is too great.
Moreover, it is impossible for him to go there alone. Azite is a gang that spans multiple states. It is too difficult to find a specific person. It must be supported by intelligence from an official agency. To get support, you need to have a legitimate reason. , and his official identity, which is contrary to his concealing his identity and doing things in private.
After much deliberation, Jimmy has never thought of a suitable reason that would allow him to go to the south without any sequelae. To complete this matter, he must have personnel and intelligence support, and he must go through official channels.
The person who shot Jimmy had been killed on the spot, and Jimmy, who was interrogating the few remaining people, didn't bother to intervene. Mahone is working hard to solidify his case. Jimmy gave up after watching his interrogation once. Just like the interrogation in Trinidad, Jimmy still prefers a direct approach.
------------------
Hughes is waiting for the mole to be dealt with. Derek and the other two captured detectives are now being interrogated in a different place. Hughes doesn't know the specific location.
In order to avoid suspicion, a team came from DC's OPR. Although this would be more embarrassing, it was also a disguised form of protection. Who knows if anyone else would come out and do something impulsive.
The most important thing is the contact person Lu Yinzi and the others captured from Albany. The middleman has always been tight-lipped. It has been two or three days and they still haven't revealed who is behind it.
But Hughes had already gotten a name from another middleman, Thomas, and now needed some evidence to connect them.
Hughes is also thinking about who the body they took away before is and who it is related to, which allows them to send people to New York to assassinate Jimmy at such a dangerous time.
Now there is something that worries him very much, that is, the middleman Thomas has lost contact. After Hughes called Thomas before, he will call back. However, Hughes has called two or three times in the past two days, and still no response. Any contact.
Although the people behind the scenes were not particularly clever this time, they were truly ruthless. Due to the existence of the mole, they clearly knew that Jimmy was the main force in the operation that night, and they should also know Jimmy's profile. Such a high-risk assassination was actually possible. To be able to arrange for a few people to come to New York from the southern border, there must be a lot of tricks behind it.
Besides, if he dared to do this after knowing Jimmy's super combat power, he must have someone to rely on. So what will he do after the mission fails? Silence? Or mobilize more manpower to take action?
What the middleman Thomas promised has never been done. Is it because he didn't communicate with the people behind him? Or is it that communication has no effect? It is unclear whether Thomas is dead or alive.
All these questions were spinning in his mind, and Hughes felt a lot of pressure. The key was whether the person behind it was the Josh Thomas mentioned.
------------------
Originally thinking that the work should come to an end recently, Jimmy planned to take a good rest after this eulogy, but before he got off work, he received a call from Lai Li.
Laili: "Jimmy, who interrogated El last time? Can you ask him to ask if there is anyone else he knows besides Ashraf Rashmi?"
Jimmy had a question mark: "Huh? What's wrong?"
Laili: "This afternoon a truck exploded on the road, killing two people. A dozen vehicles rear-ended each other, and several people were injured. After the fire department collected evidence and tested it, it was confirmed that the material was consistent with the previous explosion. .”
Jimmy's eyebrows furrowed into a straight line, what the hell is going on? Wasn't that Ashraf killed by a bomb in his own home? "Are you sure they are the same type?"
Laili: "Our explosive experts here have determined that the ingredients of this explosion are the same as those that exploded at Ashraf's house two days ago. They are also the same as the previous dumpster bomb, but the proportions are somewhat different."
Jimmy: "Has there been any investigation on the truck side? Which company does it belong to? Where did the goods come from?"
Laili: "People have been arranged to investigate, but there is no feedback yet. I am more inclined to believe that Ashraf is not the only one who can make bombs, but there may be others. And I suspect that someone is going to cause trouble again. Accept these things before People who have been trained are connected again.”
Jimmy: "You continue the investigation over there, and I'll find someone to ask. That's it for now. Goodbye."
Jimmy hung up the phone, got up and went to the interrogation room, where Mahone and Felicia were still busy. After looking through the window, it seemed that it wasn't over yet. Jimmy knocked on the door, and Felicia came over to open the door. "How long do you have until the end? There are emergencies to deal with here."
Felicia turned to look at Mahone. After hearing Jimmy's words, Mahone stood up directly, walked out and closed the door, "What's the matter?"
Jimmy: "Laili from Newark just called. A truck exploded on the road. According to the fire station's test, the composition of the explosive is consistent with the previous explosion. The proportion is slightly off, but the composition is basically fine."
Mahone: "Isn't Ashraf already killed by the bomb?"
Jimmy nodded: "So now this matter is in trouble. Laili suspects that there may be other people who have received the same training as El and Ashraf. He hopes you can talk to El again."
Ma Hong: "Have they found any clues through investigation?"
Jimmy shook his head: "No, people have been arranged to investigate the exploded truck. There is no feedback yet. At the moment, we just hope to collect as many clues as possible."
Ma Hong thought for a moment, "I understand, you go back first."
After saying that, Mahone continued to enter the interrogation room, and Felicia followed him and closed the door of the interrogation room.
Jimmy was also helpless. This kind of thing happened in New Jersey. They couldn't use their strength in New York. They completely followed Lai Li's rhythm. It was really troublesome. The key is that no matter how much they did, it was still someone else's fault. .
The threat was over for the time being. Jimmy called Nia, then went to get off work to buy ingredients. He was not going out to eat today. He was going to cook at home, and he could finally rest easily.
Nia was also worried for a few days, but she knew that Jimmy would be very busy during this period and might be in danger, so she just called to chat instead of coming to see him.
Jimmy is also worried. For him, that sense of danger has saved him several times, but this feeling has never appeared when others are in danger, so if Nia is really with him and encounters danger, , maybe he is fine, but it is not certain whether something will happen to Nia.
We haven't seen each other for a few days, and Nia is also happy. The two of them are busy working in the kitchen together, but this time it's not Jimmy who is the chef, but Nia will do it after he prepares the ingredients. Looking at Nia frying meat, he thought, well, this is also a master who doesn't usually cook. Jimmy can only occasionally intervene on the side, otherwise he may not be able to eat dinner in the end.
Cooking together is also a kind of fun. It can be regarded as a rare life adjustment while joking and busy at the same time.
At work the next day, Jimmy entered the office and found Mahone and Felicia already at their seats, "Morning, Mahone, Felicia."
After saying hello "Morning", Felicia continued to type on the keyboard. Unlike Jimmy, she was used to writing reports by hand, while Felicia was more accustomed to typing on the computer.
Mahone was also writing something there. I didn’t see Mahone today. They went to the prison to see El. Jimmy didn’t rush him. He sat in his seat and looked through the list of documents to see if there was anything interesting.
After the accident on his side, the entire homicide team did not receive any more calls. It should be a special arrangement by Hughes. Jimmy saw that several ongoing calls were assigned to the field office. .
After looking at these cases, I saw that they were all transferred from the NYPD, but there were only two similar cases of rape and murder. The rest were regular cases of death of members of federal agencies, such cases involving members of federal agencies. They are all handled by the FBI, so even ordinary eucalyptus is within the scope of their processing.
Seeing that there were no new eucalyptus, Jimmy also began to think about the eucalyptus over there. Although it did not belong to him, it was probably a follow-up to the explosive eucalyptus he had handled before. According to the third explosion that exploded in the truck, it was really Noor, the mastermind who made people suspect the escape, is back. Jimmy had made such speculation when he was attacked before. Although it was later proven that it was Azite's people who did it, part of the reason for the original suspicion was still valid.
Now it's time to look at Lee's investigation, hoping to find other clues. Jimmy is still very interested in continuing to follow up on this case, but he just hopes that Lee's side doesn't think he is taking credit.
------------------
Luyinzi's handling of Sera was finally over. Sera and Luyinz made a small deal. The price is not known to outsiders, but Sera did get temporary freedom. Returned to his base.
It can be seen that Lu Yinzi has gained a lot. When Jimmy was smoking downstairs, he was obviously very happy to see Lu Yinzi.
Jimmy: "Want one?"
Lu Yinzi reached out and took the Huazi, Jimmy ordered it for him, and the two of them just smoked and smoked downstairs, enjoying the rare leisure time.
Jimmy: "Luyinzi, do you know the progress of the mole?"
Lu Yinzi shook his head: "It has been handed over to DC's OPR department for processing. The result will probably take a while."
Jimmy: "Do you know who is commanding behind them?"
Luyinzi turned to look at Jimmy. He obviously wanted to continue chasing. Hughes told Luyinzi part of the story that day in the study. The people involved later might involve big shots. It was best not to let Jimmy continue. Well, if something goes wrong, it won’t only affect one or two people.
Lu Yinzi: "It's not clear yet. Let's wait for the news later. What are the plans?"
Jimmy nodded: "I want to go south. Sierra has admitted that Azit's second-in-command contacted him, and I want to investigate."
Lu Yinzi shook his head: "It's a bit difficult, it's across districts."
Jimmy: "I don't want to be wary of others attacking me again. I've been attacked twice."
Luyinzi took a drag on his cigarette and threw away the cigarette butt. He looked at Jimmy and said, "I understand. I'll give it a try."
Jimmy smiled and nodded, Lu Yinzi was indeed the most reliable.
