Mahone's investigation continues, and Jimmy is about to spend his most painful week. The wound is numb and itchy. This is really not a big deal. The key point is that for normal young people, eating liquid food every day is really unbearable.
Although this kind of food specially prepared by nutrition experts for Jimmy is nutritionally balanced and can replenish various energy and elements needed by the human body, it tastes bad and does not make you feel full. It was okay for the first day or two, but the more you go on, the more you feel. The body is protesting and needs some normal food.
Jimmy went to the hospital to check the wound, change the bandage, and then drove to the station.
Jimmy: "How's it going, Mahone?"
Ma Hong looked up at Jimmy: "Why are you here? Is the wound okay?"
Jimmy nodded: "Walking is fine, but strenuous exercise is not. The food I have eaten these days cannot support strenuous exercise."
Mahone took the folder from the table and handed it to Jimmy: "There's nothing going on here. You can go back and rest first. This is Scott Coleman who we investigated, a middle-aged man with children."
Jimmy took the folder and said, "Didn't you continue to investigate?"
Mahone: "We are now trying our best to trace the historical trajectories of the five-person team that attacked you and the suspected sixth person. These are the most direct clues."
Jimmy gnashed his teeth and said, "Actually, Scott is also very suspicious. These people may be the mercenaries he paid to find."
Ma Hong looked at Jimmy speechlessly, his desire for revenge was indeed a bit strong, "According to his previous ability, the number of people who can mobilize Azite is almost at the limit. Such a mercenary team should not be found by him." .”
Jimmy: "Take time to investigate. I can't go out for the time being. After you finish the investigation, I can almost leave."
Ma Hong nodded: "You can go back first and leave the matters here to us."
It seemed that Mahone had a tendency to be a little irritable, and Jimmy had no intention of getting into trouble, so he just took the folder and left the office.
When Jimmy returned, he first went to his apartment. The decoration workers were working on the bedroom. The door of his study had been locked and sealed. Although it didn't mean much, it was still acceptable.
Back at the hotel, Jimmy began to look through the information on Scott Coleman. In fact, in Jimmy's view, these people are easy to investigate and have normal jobs, so they can basically be eliminated. According to Hughes, this Scott is the white glove of a certain congressman and is responsible for the dark side. Then He can basically tell that it will definitely not be a maintenance worker or truck driver.
Judging from the occupations of these people, at least half of them can be directly excluded. As a white glove, he should at least be in a position similar to a company management or a consultant in an organization such as a think tank. In this way, there are no fixed working hours and The content occupation makes it easier for him to do some activities that are not convenient for the public.
So Jimmy directly targeted the two Scotts in Albany, because the mobile phone number that Hughes obtained through other channels was in Albany, but in recent days, that mobile phone has not been used anymore.
It has been a few days, and there has been no news from Acting Director Caitlin of the Counter-Terrorism Bureau. Although Jimmy also feels that her suspicion is not high, he still feels that she has not given any news at all, which is still a bit problematic.
------------------
Caitlin also has a headache now. She has just become the acting director of the New York Counter-Terrorism Bureau and has not yet achieved any results. A scapegoat suddenly hit her head. If she hadn't known that she had done nothing, she only saw the two encounters with Jimmy. Assassination, she even suspected that something was wrong with the Counter-Terrorism Bureau.
According to the request of DHS agents, their command center is also investigating the source of the gunman, but like the FBI, there is no result yet. But based on the situation of the gunman at the scene, she was very sure that even if this team was not from the CIA, it was an ambush plan that could only be arranged with the support of a powerful intelligence department.
She has contacted acquaintances at the Langley headquarters to investigate the force teams cooperating with CIA, but CIA is a bit special. Most people at the supervisor level and above have some small actions in private. No one knows how many force teams are working with them. There is a cooperative relationship, so there is no way to determine whether any group has lost contact.
The only thing that can be determined now is that there must be a high-level user who has called up the system data. The way to track Jimmy is to directly call the GPS information on the FBI distribution vehicle. Based on Jimmy's route to the Counter-Terrorism Bureau, it is inferred that he should return to the FBI later. office, so an ambush was set up directly on the road not far from the Counter-Terrorism Bureau.
Excluding the possibility of hackers directly hacking the FBI database to gain control, there are not many institutions that can directly read FBI data. However, whether it is the Department of Defense or the Department of Homeland Security, internal investigations will be more stressful. Although It's possible to suspect, but there's no way to prove it.
The biggest pressure on Caitlin comes from Jimmy's force value. Now Jimmy is recuperating from his injury. In addition, based on what he knows about Jimmy's character, it is barely possible to believe that he should be waiting for the results of the investigation. However, no one can guarantee how long Jimmy can wait. If true, Regardless, he may need to deploy one or two teams as bodyguards to avoid being directly shot to death by Jimmy.
He was lurking well, making no trouble or making demands, relying on himself for everything. But if something happened to him when he was awakened, who could bear this?
Caitlin waited for a few days with no results, so she flew back to Langley. Now she still had to complete the investigation as soon as possible to avoid any complications.
------------------
In a command center in Washington DC, members of the national research and analysis team sat in frustration on their chairs. The pursuit mission failed. An agent of the Harvest Plan failed to pursue him, number 5. The Ras Plan Agent No. 3 they sent found the Harvest Plan Agent No. 5 in Manila, but failed. The Harvest Plan Agent No. 5 disappeared and the Ras Plan Agent No. 3 died.
At this point, their purge plan ended in an imperfect way.
Rick: "Okay, guys, don't think about No. 5 anymore. This matter is over. Now let's deal with the next thing, stumbling block No. 13. Wendel, display his information on the big screen."
Wendel returned to the computer, found Jimmy's CIA file, and displayed it on the big screen.
A fat man said: "Who is this? Does it have anything to do with us?"
Rick: "Jimmy Young, Stumbling Block No. 13, underwent the same training as a control group, but compared with others, his training results were not satisfactory, so the control training plan was cancelled, and he was later assigned to a dormant mission. They stayed in the country and were not deployed overseas."
Rick looked at Wendel: "Show his current information."
When Jimmy's FBI file was displayed on the big screen, Rick continued: "For safety reasons, everyone in the Treadstone Project needs to be cleared. Although as a control group, he was not involved in the drug test at all, it still needs to be processed.
More than four years ago, No. 13 accepted a latent mission and entered Arkansas to become a county police officer. Perhaps it was a side effect of agent training. After a few months of stability, he began violent law enforcement. After two years as a county police officer, Killed more than 50 suspects in his career. "
"Holy shit! Didn't he even get fired?"
Rick: "Yes, judging from his record, every killing has a reasonable reason and is in compliance with the regulations. After 911, the FBI expanded its recruitment, and No. 13 was recommended by the FBI Little Rock office to enter Quantico Academy, and was later assigned to the Manhattan office.
In the past two years, he has solved many major cases in succession, including serial bombings, flight hijackings, etc., and continued his style when he was a county police officer. More than 100 suspects have died in his hands, and he was promoted to police some time ago. Positioned as Senior Agent.
A few days ago, a five-man military team ambushed him on the streets of Manhattan. He was only shot once and the five-man team was wiped out. That’s all. "
"Are you sure he is just an ordinary agent? Are you hiding any other plans?"
Rick: "No, I promise. Now, how do we deal with him?"
Wendel spread his hands, "What else can we do with such an agent? A five-man team, automatic weapons, and an ambush failed to kill him. Should we directly dispatch the army?"
Rick also had a headache. He had just briefly looked at the information before. He had become a senior agent in two or three years, and he seemed to be very skilled. At that time, I was still chasing Harvest Plan No. 5, so I didn't pay attention. When he looked at Jimmy's information later, he suddenly found that he had taken on a very difficult task.
Just looking at the information, you can see how difficult this Jimmy is. Even Bourne, who exposed their plan before, does not have such a dazzling profile. Bourne is difficult to find and catch, and if he is actually ambushed by a team of five people who are calculated and unintentional, Bourne will not be much better.
And this Jimmy, in broad daylight on a busy Manhattan street, not only was not killed, but actually wiped out the entire five-man team. The option of a frontal attack can be said to be directly bankrupt. Don't consider this plan again.
Rick: "All frontal assault options are not considered. What do you think? We currently don't have many manpower at our disposal."
Wendel: "Transfer people back? Russ Project No. 1 and 2 should be able to transfer people back now."
Rick shook his head. The Russ Plan is an advanced version of the Harvest Plan. The agents of the Russ Plan are more dedicated to the task and are not affected by emotions. The stumbling block plan that will not cause trouble and the Harvest Plan without emotional interference are the best. agent.
Precisely because of their excellence, the cost is also very high. It hurts to lose even one agent of Project Russ. We have already lost number three. If we lose numbers one and two, the entire plan will be ruined. It's a pity. If it had been earlier, Harvest Plan No. 5 would have been a good candidate. He can't attack head on, and his sniper rifle is also very good.
Rick seized on an idea just now: "Wendel, check the backup personnel, they have received intensive sniper training."
Wendel nodded, turned around and started querying the system.
------------------
Jimmy rested boredly in the hotel room. He had already read the information. All that was left was to wait for two more days to change food and recover before setting off for Albany.
After chatting with Nia on the phone for a while, although there had been no second attack for a week, Jimmy still didn't let Nia come to the hotel. He was not sure whether there would be another attack. You must know that the previous attacks were separated by a few days. What just appeared is not continuous.
After washing, Jimmy turned on the computer and read the news online before lying down to sleep.
In the middle of the night, Jimmy's sixth sense woke him up again. He immediately rolled out of bed and heard a popping sound, mixed with the crackle of broken glass.
Jimmy wrapped himself in a quilt and fell to the edge of the bed. He immediately continued to roll to the corner. He didn't even have the chance to get up, untie the quilt and throw it aside.
After hiding in the corner, Jimmy turned his head and looked outside. He couldn't see anything. Outside was the street. He could only see part of the building opposite, but not the top of the building.
He couldn't survive this miserable life, and he couldn't even sleep at night. Someone was sniping at him from a distance upstairs.
Jimmy looked at the head of the bed. He was rolling so fast that he didn't even have time to get the pistol from under the pillow. And now he didn't dare to get up. The other party could accurately shoot through the curtains to the position of the bed. The possibility of the gunman having an infrared sight cannot be ruled out. .
The glass window in Jimmy's room is open, but the curtains are drawn to block the view. Although the air in New York is not good, Jimmy is still used to ventilating the room.
The open window may have tricked Jimmy, because the glass window can block part of the infrared rays. If the gunman on the opposite side really used an infrared sight, if Jimmy didn't close the window now, he would be a target as long as he stood up, and he could only try to avoid the shooting caused by the window. scope.
This was difficult. He was not sure whether the gunman had changed positions and whether he could observe his position.
Jimmy wrapped the quilt into a long strip, with the close-fitting side facing out, and stretched out a section for testing. A bullet hit the quilt before Jimmy could react.
Sure enough, the opponent's sniper rifle scope was an infrared scope, which was basically certain.
Jimmy didn't hear any particularly obvious gunshots. The opponent's sniper rifle was equipped with a silencer. This was an absolutely professional gunman, not an ordinary person. Jimmy didn't dare to bet on his shooting skills.
Throwing the quilt on the floor, Jimmy carefully calculated the fan-shaped area formed by the window. Fortunately, it did not completely cover the room. He crawled on the floor and along the wall to the other side, ran from this side to the bed, and quickly lay on the ground. First he reached for the python from under the pillow, then reached for the FBI badge from the bedside table, climbed to the door, stood up, opened the door, and rushed to the elevator.
During this process, the other party never fired, and Jimmy didn't know if he was still in his original position.
Standing in the elevator and clicking on the first floor, Jimmy felt the weakness in his body these days. Although it was not obvious, he must be careful not to do too much strenuous exercise. On the one hand, it was physical strength, and on the other hand, it was the wound. Now it has It’s basically healed, but it would be terrible if strenuous exercise causes the stitches to crack.
When Jimmy arrived on the first floor, the waiters on duty in the lobby were shocked. A man wearing only underwear rushed out of the elevator holding a revolver. This scene was really exciting.
Jimmy ignored these people at all. As soon as the elevator opened, he started to rush towards the door. When he got out, he crossed the sidewalk and ran towards the opposite building.
The gunman's location had been roughly determined based on the ballistic trajectory. He should be on top of the building opposite, but he was not sure of the specific location of the gunman.
Jimmy rushed towards the building with a pistol, but was stopped by the door. The door was locked, and Jimmy pushed it twice without opening it.
He looked at the security guard at the front desk inside, put the FBI badge on the glass door and shouted: "FBI, open the door."
The security guard was also shocked. A nearly naked man, holding a revolver in his hand, shouted at the door to open the door. This was an unusual scene.
This building was an office building, and the security guard did not have a gun. He got down from the chair and squatted down, only showing a little of his head to look at Jimmy, and shouted, "Who are you? What are you going to do?"
Jimmy: "FBI, open the door right now. There's an active shooter in your building."
Only then did the security guard see Jimmy's badge on the door. It was a bit far away and couldn't be seen clearly. The security guard didn't dare to show his face. He directly pressed the alarm button under the front desk. "I have already called the police. Please leave immediately."
Jimmy looked up at the building. At least as far as he could see, he didn't see anyone out of the ordinary. The gunman upstairs was either still upstairs or had run away.
"FBI, open the door right away. Someone just shot me from your building. Now, open the door."
Jimmy knocked on the glass door nonchalantly. Because of his identity, he couldn't shoot directly at the glass to break the door. That would have too much impact, so he could only knock on the door and let the security guard open it.
The security guard shrank completely behind the front desk, ready to act like an ostrich.
In just two or three minutes, Jimmy heard the sound of police sirens. He sighed and turned to look at the street. A police car rushed over with its lights flashing.
