Caitlin Prado can sit in the position of senior executive, and her ability is beyond doubt. With relevant connections, although it is difficult to investigate information at the headquarters, it is not impossible.
She knew about the Treading Stone Project. She started investigating from the Treading Stone Project and forwarded the records a few years, and she could almost get the clues. What Caitlin investigated was similar to what Tom told Jimmy, but in more detail.
It's still the same Rick, but with some more content about the Stumbling Block Project, including experiments on drug enhancement of physical fitness and intelligence, as well as the control group situation that Jimmy's predecessor was in, and additional content about the exposure of this plan, that is, Bourne Watson-related content.
Jimmy has determined that everyone's plan to clean up the stumbling block plan comes from this Rick, so the rest is simple. Although he has stopped the cleaning operation, it does not mean that Jimmy cannot take revenge. Caitlin provides this This information obviously also has this meaning. Since she almost took the blame, the person behind the scenes must bear the price.
After confirming the contents of all the information, Jimmy destroyed all the information. He had already written it down, there was no need to keep it, and it would be troublesome to leak it. As for the laptop I just bought, I will keep it so that I can spend some time online when I have a break.
The next morning, Jimmy received a call from Justin, and he came to Jimmy's room not long after.
Justin first complained about the lack of sleep and had to take a taxi from the airport instead of picking up the plane. Then after seeing the money in the bag, he immediately had no objection.
Jimmy asked Justin to take the money away and give it to him after laundering it. Of course, the loss would be deducted from the money.
For Justin, this is definitely a windfall, and it is not a big deal to go to Houston for profitable business. Besides, there was no need for him to bring the money back to Little Rock; he had enough connections to do it in Houston.
Jimmy chose Justin because of this. Justin is still very reliable. At least for now, he is the only person he knows who can deal with this bunch of green cuties without getting into trouble. Justin is the only one he knows.
In fact, he could consider taking the money back to New York. Bars are naturally a good place to launder money. The only problem is that they have to keep it secret, which is relatively troublesome.
Justin and Jimmy went downstairs with their bags and put their things into Jimmy's car. Justin came by plane and of course he didn't drive. He drove away Jimmy's car just enough to destroy the car.
Jimmy returned to the hotel room, packed up, and went out with his luggage and the laptop he had just bought. This time he was traveling light. He would naturally find a way to get transportation when he arrived in New Mexico.
Yes, Jimmy plans to go directly to New Mexico. Although Hobbs is relatively close to Houston, it will take a long time for Jimmy to drive there.
The key is that he still doesn't know what Tim looks like. According to the previous investigation information, including Torsten and the others' archives, there is no photo of Tim.
The existing information did not meet the conditions for his investigation. Although Hobbs City was not a big place, it had no support, no intelligence, and no photos. He had no way to find it unless he started from the bottom and investigated step by step. It will take a long time, and his existence will also be exposed.
Jimmy arrived at the airport and flew directly to Albuquerque. After coming out of the airport, Jimmy took a taxi based on the location of his mobile phone and arrived near the target, where he found a hotel to check into.
This time the target is the suspected mastermind Scott Coleman, the one in Albany. His wife said he is in Los Angeles, California, but his mobile phone number has always been in Albuquerque. This is the biggest suspicion.
Fortunately, this Scott has a photo, and his mobile phone positioning has determined his range, which is in this neighborhood. Jimmy stood in the hotel room window and looked out. The buildings here were not tall, and most of the business buildings had large ground parking lots. Although the environment was worse than that in Little Rock, it was more arid and there were fewer green plants. Some, but basically the shape is not much different.
The current location is in the city center, and there are only two high-rise buildings on this block. Although it is said to be a high-rise building, it actually only has four or five floors. There are some residential buildings around it. From a distance, most of them are one to two-story buildings. Relatively speaking, I am used to seeing high-rise buildings close together in New York, but this place is too spacious.
Jimmy asked the front desk for a map. He sat in front of the window and looked at the map while looking at the pedestrians and vehicles downstairs from time to time. The weather is really too hot. Outside Albuquerque is a desolate desert terrain with sparse vegetation. The climate here is also a desert climate. It is hot and dry with little precipitation. It is not so uncommon to have temperatures above 40 degrees in summer.
Jimmy observed the pedestrians and vehicles passing by, mainly to determine what kind of clothes and cars he needed to change to fit in. But after observing for a while, he became a little depressed. Since coming out of the airport, he has only seen a few people with Asian faces, and they look to be from Southeast Asia. Their appearance is somewhat different from that of Chinese people like him.
Jimmy turned on the computer and searched. The plan to integrate into the local area went bankrupt. The population of New Mexico was less than 2 million, and the Asians, including South Asians and Indians, accounted for only 1%. He appeared in front of a Chinese face. On the street, no matter how you hide it, there are scarce goods, so how can you hide it?
After thinking about it, Jimmy decided to change his plan. After booking a taxi at the front desk, Jimmy took the taxi to a second-hand car shop and bought a car using his real identity.
After preparing the car at the dealer, Jimmy drove back to the hotel. Of course, he also took a few laps on the road to familiarize himself with the road conditions and terrain. Passing by a coffee shop, Jimmy stopped and drank a cup of coffee and got acquainted with the place.
A young and handsome Chinese man appeared here, which was quite eye-catching. There were not many people in the store. A Hispanic waitress also took the initiative to say hello and chatted for a few words. After learning that he was visiting from New York, she also took the initiative to recommend nearby places to visit. The place to turn.
Since having Nia, Jimmy rarely flirts with girls, and of course he won't be too enthusiastic, just chatting politely. Idle time is also idle, chatting with girls is much better than basking in the sun outside.
After drinking coffee, Jimmy returned to the car, turned on the radio, and drove to the hotel while listening to music to start work tomorrow.
The next day, Jimmy put on a suit, a standard FBI outfit, put on sunglasses, and hung the FBI badge on his belt. He left the room with the printed photo on Scott's profile and came to the front desk.
The girl at the front desk looked at Jimmy in surprise: "Wow, are you going to interview for a job?"
Jimmy smiled and said, "No, I just have something to do. Casey, have you seen this person?"
Casey frowned slightly, "Are you looking for someone?"
Jimmy nodded: "Well, he is also from New York."
Casey looked at the photo carefully and shook his head: "I have no impression. He is not a customer of the store."
Jimmy: "Thanks, I'm going out now. Goodbye, Casey."
Casey: "Goodbye."
Jimmy did not drive away, but walked directly to the right. He was going to use normal investigation methods to ask around. This was the plan he decided to alert the snake.
Chinese FBI agents are still rare. Since the Chinese themselves are very eye-catching, let's just make it clear. Anyway, the Scott under investigation this time is a person with a normal identity and is not a gangster on the surface.
In the office building next to it, Jimmy showed his ID at the front desk downstairs and showed her Scott's photo. The front desk shook his head, it was indeed difficult, and called the security guard next to him to confirm.
There are several small companies in this building, but most of them have at least an impression of it. It is true that they have never seen the photos provided by Jimmy. Jimmy thanked him and left the office building, arriving at the building across the road.
Jimmy went through the same process at the front desk and showed his ID and photos. After that, the front desk seemed to suddenly become a little nervous, but he still said that he had never seen it before and planned to go there.
Jimmy knew something was wrong when he looked at her expression. Although he didn't know whether she knew she was nervous from the FBI or was nervous after seeing the photos. There must be something wrong here.
Jimmy took back the photo, "How many companies are there upstairs? I want to talk to them."
Front desk: "Sorry, I can't let you enter the office area without their permission. Security!"
A security guard nearby had been looking at Jimmy and the others before. When he heard the front desk shouting, he came over and said, "Sir, please don't interfere with our work."
Jimmy nodded: "ok, thank you." He turned and left the hall and came outside.
He walked to the side of the door, took out the cigarette case, lit a cigarette, and observed what was going on inside. The receptionist watched Jimmy leave the lobby and picked up the phone, but unfortunately he couldn't hear what she said.
Jimmy looked up and looked upstairs. There didn't seem to be many people upstairs. Jimmy had been paying attention to the location of these people. Not long after he put down the phone at the front desk, three people upstairs walked to the elevator.
Jimmy watched them arrive at the lobby on the first floor, stood at the front desk for a while, then turned and returned to the elevator, this time going down to the underground parking lot.
Interestingly, Jimmy saw them getting into an SUV, and after starting it, it was out of his range. There should be an exit on the other side.
Jimmy ran directly to the parking lot of the hotel. The distance was not far, less than a hundred meters away. He got into the car directly, regardless of the high temperature inside the car, started the car, left the parking lot, and chased after him.
Fortunately, although there were many cars on the road, there were not many SUVs. Jimmy accelerated forward and passed a few cars before he found an SUV with three people inside. It was the same as he had seen before, and it was them. Following from a distance, their car ran towards the north.
It seemed that the place they were going to wasn't close. After driving for a while, they got on Route 25. Jimmy was completely confused here. The map he looked at before was mainly about the downtown area, but now he couldn't I was looking at the map while driving, so I could only follow along and wait until I got to the place before telling me where it was.
The SUV in front came off the highway and turned into the urban road. Jimmy followed him down. When they arrived at a supermarket at an intersection, the car turned directly into the parking lot of the supermarket.
Jimmy also followed in from a distance. When he reached the parking space, the people in the SUV also got out of the car. Two people in suits and sunglasses seemed to be in the driver's seat and the co-pilot in the front, and the one in the back was wearing a T-shirt. The middle-aged white man also opened the door and got out of the car.
Although he is also wearing sunglasses, he looks similar to the photo in Jimmy's hand. In order to make sure it was him, Jimmy also got out of the car and walked into the supermarket.
There were quite a lot of people in the supermarket, and there were people wearing all kinds of clothes. It was still a while after being separated by dozens of meters. When Jimmy came in, there was no one in sight. It was too hurt.
Jimmy bought a few bottles of drinks, snacks and chocolates, walked out holding the bags, and returned to his car to wait. Turning on the air conditioner and listening to the radio, Jimmy took out a map and started checking the location.
Soon, three people came out, two men in suits holding bags in their hands and a box in their arms. Jimmy kept staring at the person in the middle, confirming that he was his target, Scott, and found you.
The SUV started up again, got back on the road, and entered the North Valley area. Jimmy watched them park the car in front of a house, but only two people got out of the car, the driver was still in the car, and they didn't take anything they bought at the supermarket.
Jimmy crossed their car, turned right and stopped at the intersection ahead. He turned to look at their location. It was a bit far away, so he had to get out of the car.
Jimmy stood on the side of the road, smoking and observing. Soon they took some things from the house and put them in the car. The car started. Jimmy did not move. He turned around and stood on the side of the road smoking. He waited until the car passed before he started to follow.
Along the way, we came to a factory with a banner hanging above it. This factory was for sale. It was currently unoccupied. However, after the SUV entered the factory, someone came down and closed the door.
Jimmy parked the car far away and began to observe the surrounding environment. This is an industrial area, with few residential buildings around, and a few tall buildings like factories in the distance. However, there are basically no people on the road, except for a few cars parked in front of residential buildings.
After looking at the time, Jimmy took out a piece of chocolate and ate a piece of chocolate to replenish his energy. This factory area is very large. Jimmy did not see Scott's position in his mind's eye. They should be very deep inside. Wait a minute. I want to go in and see.
Jimmy looked around carefully to make sure no one was paying attention. Then he got out of the car and entered the factory through a gap on the side. After just a few steps, he found his target.
Scott's SUV was parked in the factory, and the three of them were scattered in the factory. It seemed that this should be the temporary base they had prepared before. Jimmy could see a room with a bed and There are sofas and tables, and there are tables and chairs in the empty areas of the factory.
Jimmy walked around to the side of the factory. When he reached the wall, the three people inside all stood up and moved toward the door. Then the door of the factory opened and two cars drove in. They drove until they reached the door of the factory and stopped.
This unexpected incident caused Jimmy to temporarily suspend his original raid plan. He peeked out from the corner and took a look. The people getting out of the two cars didn't look like good people. They had tattoos on their bodies. They were a bit far away and couldn't see clearly.
After saying a few words at the door, several people entered the factory. Two of them walked to the room with the bed and sat on the sofa chatting. You could see them gesticulating with their hands while talking.
Jimmy was a little depressed. Originally there were only three people, so it was done casually, but now there are six more people. Although it is within the bearable range, if something big happens here, the impact may be greater.
Jimmy thought for a while, turned around and left the factory, and returned to the car. The new people should have left. All he had to do was wait for a while.
Until the evening, Jimmy didn't find any sign of the three cars coming out of the factory. Jimmy was getting irritated as he waited. Could it be that these people didn't plan to leave?
Jimmy had previously set up a tactic to alert the snake, just to alert Scott and make him appear so that Jimmy could follow. However, the snake was too careful. It was just news of an FBI investigation. He ran directly to the safe house and pulled it out like this. With multiple bodyguards to protect him, if it weren't for Jimmy, anyone else would have really been caught blind.
