Jimmy didn't let Nia stay here for too long and sent her back early. No one could guarantee whether such a dangerous scene during the day would happen in the hospital.
There are now two agents on duty outside his ward, and two more agents will come in at night to relieve them. This was all arranged by Hughes, and Jimmy only accepted his arrangement with a symbolic rejection.
Under such circumstances, there is no need for Nia to be here, which will only increase the danger.
Jimmy didn't dare to sleep too much at night, so he woke up every once in a while. In the second half of the night, he even took a break with the two detectives on duty.
There was no way, it was human nature to be afraid of death, but the five-person paramilitary team scared a group of people. With this kind of firepower configuration, except for Jimmy, no one in the entire Manhattan office dared to say that they would survive.
Early the next morning, Mahone came to the hospital before going to work.
Mahone: "Jimmy, let me tell you something. Hughes informed me last night that people from DHS (U.S. Department of Homeland Security) will come over this morning. They will assess whether this case falls within the scope of a terrorist attack. The case may be serious." trouble."
Jimmy leaned on the hospital bed, "What's going on? This shouldn't have spread to dhs, right? How did they know about it so quickly in Washington DC?"
Ma Hong shook his head: "It's not clear yet. I'll probably see them when I get to the office. I'm just giving you a message. If they intervene, the investigation may be handed over to them, and we will be here to assist. "
Jimmy: "I understand, I think they will come to my place again. You should go back to the office first. Please call me if there is any news."
Mahone nodded. Jimmy's intestines were injured and he couldn't eat outside now. He could only eat liquid nutritional meals from the hospital, so Mahone came over empty-handed. After chatting with Jimmy for a few words, he left the hospital and went to work.
Jimmy was right as he thought. Near noon, two agents came over, showed their IDs to the FBI agents at the door, and entered Jimmy's ward.
The agent in front flashed his ID: "Agent dhs Bill Baker, this is my colleague Jack Dillon."
Jimmy: "FBI Senior Agent Jimmy Young, what can I do?"
Bill pulled a chair from the side and sat down in front of Jimmy's bed. Another agent, Jack, took out a notepad and pen from his pocket and stood to record. "We are here because of your shootout on the street yesterday. Can you tell us more about yesterday's situation?"
Jimmy nodded and recounted yesterday's gunfight process. He didn't add any judgment, he was just talking about the situation at the scene.
Agent Bill: "Why did you go to CTO?"
Jimmy: "I was attacked some time ago. I want to go to the Counter-Terrorism Bureau to see if there are any clues. They have strong investigative capabilities."
Bill: "Is this attack related to previous attacks?"
Jimmy: "I don't know the information about the person who attacked me yet. I can't judge for the time being. I think you can ask Agent Mahone or Director Hughes."
Bill: "Tell me about you being followed the day before yesterday and being attacked in the early morning."
Jimmy was a little surprised. DHS had only arrived at the Manhattan office in the morning. Did he even know that he was being followed? Astonished as he was, he still had to say what needed to be said. Jimmy still made a declarative statement, telling how he discovered and led them around.
As for the attack in the early morning, this one is even simpler, because it involves Jimmy, an internal star, and the people from the forensics department have already completed basic ballistic analysis during the on-site inspection. Jimmy just said it briefly and it was over. As for whether they can restore it When a scene appears, it depends on their ability to understand it.
Bill nodded: "Okay, that's it. We'll go back to your office to continue the investigation. We may come to disturb you a few times."
Jimmy: "Welcome, thank you for assisting us in investigating this incident."
The two detectives from dhs left, and no one came over from Jimmy's side. Everyone was busy investigating the case, and no one had enough time to come over.
The injury on Jimmy's leg was very minor. It was just a blood groove. It was not a big problem. He put some medicine and a bandage on it and it was done. The waist area was a little troublesome, mainly because he was in the hospital now. Naturally, everything was focused on recovery, so Stop moving if you can.
Jimmy usually rarely gets injured, and he doesn't know if this is normal. He always feels itchy and numb in his wounds, which makes him want to reach out and touch them.
In the afternoon, the outside agent came in and said: "Agent Jimmy, there is a man outside looking for you. He said his name is James Baldwin."
"Chief James? Invite him in." Jimmy was still very surprised, wasn't he? The news of his injury had reached Little Rock? Why did James come here? The key is that he hasn't called himself yet, how can he find the hospital?
The agent brought an old man in. Jimmy looked at him carefully and said, "James, long time no see. Simon, you guys should take a rest first."
Jimmy sent the detective at the door to rest, and "James" in front of him spoke, "Jimmy, you really can always surprise people."
Jimmy smiled, took his hand out from under the quilt, and put the revolver back under the pillow, "Where have you been? You haven't shown up for so long. I thought you had an accident." The old man in front of him was Tom, although The makeup was on, but Jimmy still knew Tom very well.
Tom turned to look out the door, and Jimmy said, "They left, not at the door."
Tom: "I have been in Washington DC and Virginia. I only found out that you had done something big again when I saw the news. How are you injured?"
Jimmy: "It's a small problem. I was shot in the side and suffered a penetrating injury. I'll probably recover in a few days. Has the news been restricted? Except for what was reported at the beginning, there should be almost no reports after that."
Tom: "It's relatively easy to investigate your matter. What's going on? I saw the news, and five people surrounded you and killed one of you?"
Jimmy glanced outside to make sure no one was at the door before saying: "I have been awakened by someone, Caitlin Prado, acting director of the Counter-Terrorism Bureau. Just a few days ago, the reason should be that both the Director of the Counter-Terrorism Bureau and the CIA Director were called The exposure of the Black Rose Project has continued, and now a new acting director has come over, and they found my file when they were checking the files."
Tom frowned and thought, "That shouldn't be the case. I specially arranged your file. If you are just the acting director of the Counter-Terrorism Bureau, you shouldn't be able to get it."
Jimmy: "I don't know, that's the problem. On the day I was awakened, I went to see the new director. That night, someone entered my apartment and assassinated me. Later, three cars took turns following me, and then yesterday, I I went to the Anti-Terrorism Bureau and was ambushed on the way back.”
Tom: "Let me think about it." He pulled over a chair and sat down, starting to think, while Jimmy kept paying attention outside. Although Tom's makeup skills were very good, he could easily be exposed after being discovered and investigated.
Tom thought for a while and shook his head: "I can't tell for the time being. I need to investigate."
Jimmy: "Well, you can investigate. I'm not familiar with CIA at all, so I don't know how to deal with it. By the way, I just thought of a question after being awakened this time. There should be a place where hidden agents store support supplies." , where is mine? Understanding it clearly will avoid revealing the truth later."
Tom: "I have transferred the supplies from Little Rock to New York, Kaufman, a Jewish storage warehouse in Brooklyn." Tom picked up the note on the table and wrote a string of numbers, "You You can go directly to get your box, which contains weapons, operational funds and identification documents."
Tom is really reliable and has prepared so many things for Jimmy in advance. Jimmy nodded: "That's good, so as not to cause problems later."
Tom: "Since you're injured, just take a good rest. I'll leave first."
Jimmy: "Wait, James has retired. He plans to go around with his wife. Do you... want to contact him? Also, leave me your contact information."
Tom shook his head: "I'd better not show up and let them go out and have fun."
Jimmy: "Aren't you done yet? It's been so long."
Tom reported a mobile phone number, waved to Jimmy, stood up and left the ward.
Jimmy looked at Tom leaving the ward and was also sad. For three years, Tom has been investigating and taking revenge since he faked his death, but he still hasn't finished it yet. Jimmy could tell that Tom seemed to have let go of some things now and felt much more relaxed, but it was not a problem to be a living dead man all the time.
Seeing Tom leave, the two detectives outside returned to the outside of the ward. In fact, Jimmy felt that it was a bit redundant for them to protect him outside when he was awake, but it was Hughes's intention after all, so be it.
------------------
DHS has not completely taken over the case, but now they still need to understand all the clues of the case, so now they are basically like supervisors, and the information investigated by Mahone and others will be fed back to them.
The command center of the FBI's Manhattan office has also been activated, which is similar to the Counter-Terrorism Bureau. The difference is that the data on the FBI's side may not be as complete as that of the Counter-Terrorism Bureau. There is no way. The FBI is part of the Department of Justice, and the Counterterrorism Bureau is now part of the Department of Homeland Security. The gap between the corresponding management departments is still too big.
The newly established two-year-old Department of Homeland Security is currently in its largest and most chaotic phase because it has absorbed so many departments. After giving them enough time to slowly sort it out, the departments will be reorganized and the business processes will be arranged smoothly, and it will naturally be time to split some functions.
The command center has preset permissions and is directly connected to the New York State Police, various county police, and city police systems. The monitoring center can finally be read directly without having to contact each one.
Mahone and the others are here now, mobilizing surveillance to find the route of the engineering vehicle and the routes they may have taken before. At the same time, trainees and other agents who have no urgent tasks have also been sent out. Mahone and the others are here to investigate. Detectives or NYPD patrol officers will be arranged to inspect and inquire at suspicious locations to speed up the investigation of clues.
The technical department's analysis of the unbranded walkie-talkie has ended. The walkie-talkie uses automatic frequency conversion mode and military-grade encryption. Apart from being sure that this thing is not accessible to ordinary people, there is nothing to gain.
It can't be said that nothing has been found. Judging from the current situation, they at least have an observer or commander within one kilometer of the surrounding area. The most important thing is to find a way to find this sixth person from the clues. This person is the most important clue for them to find the mastermind behind the scenes.
Of course, this takes time, and what Mahone and the others need most now is time. The longer the time, the more likely it is that the next attack will occur. This time, a military team with automatic rifles was wiped out. No one can guarantee what will happen next time. The people at DHS think so too, so now if Mahone and the others have any intelligence needs, they apply to Washington DC through DHS agents, and the information is provided very quickly.
Jimmy's car distribution inspection has been completed. Except for the built-in GPS positioning device, no additional equipment was found in Jimmy's car. The technicians at the FBI headquarters also reported that no user was found to read Jimmy's distribution in the system. Car gps records. Then there are two possibilities. One is that no one really checked it, and the other is that high-level permissions were used. After querying, the relevant records were cleaned up, and the technicians found no abnormalities.
It's a pity that the ambush team this time also didn't have any identification, not even a mobile phone, so the most convenient mobile phone positioning and historical information positioning were not available, otherwise the speed could be faster.
------------------
The Counter-Terrorism Bureau also started an operation. Agents from DHS contacted them. Caitlin arranged for the command center to also investigate simultaneously. She herself contacted acquaintances at CIA and started investigating from there, mainly targeting the field team. The mercenaries who work with them.
The style of the operators this time is too similar to the CIA style. It’s not the way they attack, but the way they obtain intelligence before the attack. The strong intelligence agency operation mode, the accurate grasp of intelligence is definitely not something ordinary people can do. of.
The CIA's independent combat teams are usually outside and will only come back when they take turns. These are easier to investigate because their actions generally have authorization records. What complicates matters is the co-operation of hiring teams. These people are not affiliated with the company and are only contacted when necessary, so it is more difficult to investigate.
------------------
On the second night of the ambush, Jimmy finally got good news. Mahone and the others finally located the house where the five attackers lived temporarily. It was an apartment. Now the detectives are investigating the room in this apartment. Tenants and other people in the apartment building.
For Jimmy, this is the rare good news in the past two days, at least there is some progress.
Of course, the better news is that on the morning of the third day, at Jimmy's request, the doctor re-examined his wound and found that the healing was better than expected. It seemed that the doctor was right when he injured his arm last time. Due to physical issues, his recovery speed is slightly faster, in terms of ratio, it takes probably less than one-third of the time.
After confirming that he was recovering well and there were no problems for the time being, Jimmy could finally leave the hospital and return to the hotel to continue recuperating. It's not that he doesn't want to spend the bureau's money to stay in the hospital for a few more days, but for the convenience of contact, it's more convenient to stay in a hotel by himself.
The anonymous mobile phone Jimmy had prepared earlier had been thrown into the warehouse, and he could only buy another one on the way back to the hotel. There was no need for it, but Tom suddenly appeared. In order to contact Tom, an anonymous mobile phone was necessary.
Jimmy sent a message to Tom on his anonymous mobile phone, and then rested in the ward, waiting for the results of the investigation.
(Mom, you guys guessed a little bit of the plot, although not much. What should I do?)
