Jimmy asked for advice on how to investigate, and Tom gave him simple guidance. In fact, he didn't say anything, he just told Jimmy what not to do.
Of course, don't even think about wanting Tom to help out again. Apart from anything else, when I saw Tom this time, he was not as energetic as before, and he seemed to be much older.
A person's energy is linked to whether he has a goal. In the past few years, Tom had been tracking down the people who attacked his team. At that time, he had something on his mind. Whether he was doing errands or meeting Jimmy, he seemed to be very energetic. Since he completed his revenge, he looks a lot worse, and after all, he is still around 60, so he can't ask for too much.
He is about the same age as James, and James seems to be in better spirits. Maybe it's time to find something for him to do.
Jimmy: "Tom, what are you doing in Florida now?"
Tom: "Nothing, prepare for retirement."
Jimmy: "Why not go with James? You can also protect him and prevent Greg from sending others over. James can't deal with your agents."
Tom shook his head: "No, he shouldn't be in any danger for the time being. Do you have any other questions?"
Jimmy: "Well, do you have any information on the Rick you investigated before?"
Tom sighed: "Okay, I'll help you find it and wait for my news."
Jimmy laughed out loud, "That's great. I have a lot of things to do with the FBI here. If I take leave for a long time, it might be a problem. The key is that I don't know how long it will take me. I have to deal with the Atez gang before and after." It took more than a month to uproot them."
Tom was a little confused: "Huh? Did Atez kill them all? Didn't you say on the phone before that you were just leaving the country to deal with something? Is this it?"
Jimmy: "Well, we just dealt with them a few days ago, including their boss Barrio and second man Tim, as well as the person in charge of Houston in Texas."
Tom: "I can't see it. You can actually do this? Tell me, how did you do it?"
Jimmy also probably shared his handling process with Tom. Of course, the cleaner also cooperated with the CIA, otherwise there is no way to explain how dozens of corpses were handled. The most important thing is that Tony ambushed Jimmy at the exit when he returned from abroad. In his case, I just wanted to see what Tom had to say.
Jimmy has great trust in Tom. There is no need to hide these contents. Whether it is Caitlin or the details of his departure, they are all very familiar and familiar to Tom. He must have done it before.
Tom: "You have done less. Tony's upline must be killed, otherwise you may face a very dangerous situation in the future. I thought you had completed this step, but I didn't expect that you could survive until now without doing anything."
Jimmy frowned: "They have already received actual benefits. Without Atez, the gangs they support can fill the vacancy. Will they still cause trouble for me?"
Tom: "If it were our time, you would definitely be cleared. There is nothing wrong with Tony's approach. I have been away from the Southwest for a few years, and I don't know these people, but from the way Tony does things, His online operation is likely to be consistent with our original approach. You must clear up uncontrollable factors, otherwise this line will not be safe and concealed."
Jimmy frowned: "Caitlin didn't give any hint. She even brought two people over to help deal with the bodies of Tony and his companions."
Tom raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you think that the two people she brought might want to dispose of your body?"
Jimmy was speechless. How do these people have such brains? Why do you feel that no matter what you do, there will be something wrong, and no matter what you do, someone will kill you?
Jimmy: "What's your suggestion?"
Tom: "I don't know. I'm old. I don't know what their new generation thinks. Maybe they have no intention of silencing them at all. This needs to be dealt with by yourself.
Jimmy, you are old enough and a legitimate CIA agent. You need to handle your own affairs. "
Jimmy sighed, this incident was originally thought to be just a follow-up, but now it has turned out to be such a mess, how should we deal with it?
Jimmy: "Okay, my biggest problem now is that I know nothing about Langley and the CIA, and I'm worried that the secret will be exposed."
Tom: "Your identity is real. Even if you don't know it, it's no problem to go directly to Langley to ask someone for help. Besides, it's more convenient to go to Caitlin directly. She should be able to explain it to you. The reason is easy to find. You just did it before. Field agent training, never involved in company matters."
Jimmy: "Okay, that's all. Thanks, Tom. Finally, I still hope you can contact James. He misses you very much."
Tom nodded and stood up, "I will contact him after I handle it. Please use the latest number to contact me in the future."
After saying that, Tom walked directly to the side, and Jimmy also got up and walked out of the park along the same route. After walking for a while, he called a taxi and returned to the hotel.
Facts have proved that Jimmy is still too young. The key is that he has too little experience with things involving the dark side, and has never actually learned from these dark side people. He uses the experience of the FBI and the police to deal with the dark side. It will definitely There will be mistakes, there will be tails left behind.
Jimmy was still thinking about it when he returned to the hotel and took a shower, and then he realized that he had missed one thing. Looking back now, Tom seemed completely unconcerned about finding someone to clean up more than a dozen corpses. He knew that someone could To dispose of the body without leaking it, he should have cooperated with the cleaners, and it is not even ruled out that they were CIA partners.
This matter really needed to be confirmed with him. After taking a shower, Jimmy immediately sent a text message to Tom, "Does your company have a cleaner that you can cooperate with? It's more pleasant to work with someone you know well."
Tom quickly responded to the text message, "I have it personally, but not the company. I will give you the contact information later."
Understood, Tom does cooperate with characters similar to the cleaners at the InterContinental Hotel. Even if it is not them, at least it is other organizations or teams with similar functions. The killer group is not just the InterContinental Hotel, so this is normal.
Wait for Tom to provide contact information later and try it out if you have a chance. Multiple options are good.
The next day, Jimmy arrived at the office early. He couldn't help it. The distance was too close. He would always arrive a little earlier after breakfast. After a while, Jimmy received a call from Lambert and went to Lambert's office upstairs.
Lambert: "Jimmy, how are you these days?"
Jimmy: "It went relatively smoothly. The bank robbery was completed last night, and Ray is finishing the work."
Lambert nodded: "Very good. That's okay. It just won't delay things. Your secondment here is over, and you can pack up and go back to New York."
Jimmy was surprised. Hughes just came here a few days ago and thought he would stay in Dallas for a while. "Okay, there's nothing wrong with me here. You can return at any time."
Lambert: "Don't be in a hurry to go to work. Hughes has given you a long vacation. Take a good rest."
The smile on Jimmy's face disappeared immediately, "Is this what Hughes meant?"
Lambert nodded: "Don't worry, it's okay. You always have to give him some time to deal with it. This is not that simple."
Jimmy: "My identity?"
Lambert: "Senior FBI agent, relax, no one is going to kick you out, but some things still need to be handled internally."
Jimmy nodded. It was normal for Hughes and the others to digest the news they had just confirmed a few days ago. He just took advantage of the long vacation to deal with his own affairs.
Jimmy: "Thanks, Director Lambert."
Lambert waved his hand, and Jimmy turned and left his office and came downstairs, where Ray was already sitting in his seat.
Jimmy: "Ray, thank you for taking care of me these days. I need to go back to New York."
Lei: "Is it so fast? It's good to go back, have a nice journey."
Jimmy and Ray shook hands and hugged, and left the FBI Dallas office directly. Fortunately, they didn't apply for a car yesterday, otherwise they would have to go through the process again now.
Back at the hotel, Jimmy thought about it and called Hughes to officially confirm that his secondment was over. Hughes also directly gave him half a month's leave. Of course, it was unpaid leave. It was Jimmy's request for leave.
Jimmy was also speechless. The long vacation arranged by Hughes himself was actually counted as Jimmy's annual leave or personal leave, which was really a loss. He didn't refute, and directly made a request for leave orally, and would complete the leave application procedures when he returned to work.
This vacation was a bit unexpected, and there were still many things that he had not prepared for. Although this long vacation lasted for two weeks, it was difficult for him to take action in time because the information did not come.
Tom just left last night, and it would take at least a few days for the information to be available. After thinking about it, Jimmy still wanted to clean up everything here first. There were still some things in the warehouse in Albuquerque that were not convenient to be exposed.
Jimmy checked the time and called Justin in the afternoon, making an appointment to meet in Albuquerque the next day. Of course, he would reimburse the travel expenses. When Justin heard this, he understood what was going on. Making money was certainly a good thing, so he agreed.
Jimmy packed his luggage and flew to Albuquerque early the next morning. He drove the rented car at the airport and waited for Justin to arrive at the airport before gathering and driving to the mini warehouse.
Justin looked at the boxes in the warehouse and said to Jimmy with a smile: "You have gained a lot from this trip. There are at least more than 200 in these two boxes, maybe 300."
Jimmy: "Who makes them like to keep these things in their homes and warehouses? It's just convenient. As per the old rules, you just deal with it. By the way, collect some gold coins for me. In addition to giving them to the cleaners, they will be needed later. Do you have anyone in DC?"
Justin: "Of course there is in DC, but I'm not familiar with it there. You can contact Winston."
Jimmy: "Well, it looks like I have to go back to New York."
Justin: "You haven't finished your matter yet?"
Jimmy nodded: "The things can't be finished. There are too many complicated lines that need to be cleaned up. Hey, I can't help myself."
Justin: "Well, it seems that you have a big deal with DC. Remember a number and you can contact him in an emergency. He is in Alexandria, Virginia, not far from DC. I can help him." It won’t be too much for you, but at least it will leave you with a way out.”
Jimmy: "Thank you, that makes me feel more at ease."
Justin: "Okay, we can leave. There is no need to get out other things here."
Jimmy looked at the pile of camping equipment here. When he was thinking about it, he never thought about how to deal with these things. It seemed like a waste just throwing them away. He probably wouldn't come here in a short time.
Jimmy: "Put it in the trunk. I'll take you away first. I'll give these things to others."
Justin: "No problem."
Jimmy drove Justin outside a bar, watched him dragging two boxes into the bar, and then started to leave. Jimmy called Steven. Steven and the others went out to handle the case. If they met, they would either wait or go directly to them.
Jimmy drove to the place where Steven and the others were handling the case. The DEA had already arrested someone at the scene. Standing outside the cordon, Jimmy called Steven over.
Jimmy: "Hi, Steven."
Steven: "Jimmy, didn't you go back?"
Jimmy: "Well, we've finished the work here, come here to finish it off. How are you doing? Did it go well?"
Steven: "A small character has been caught. What happened when you came here this time?"
Jimmy: "I'm getting ready to go back to New York. I bought some things here that I won't use anymore. It would be a waste to leave them in the hotel. I came here to see if you are interested in taking them back and using them. They are in the trunk."
Steven came to the back of the car with Jimmy and opened the trunk. "There are so many, it seems you had a lot of fun during this time." A lot of tents, barbecue tools, etc. filled the trunk.
Jimmy: "Keep it if you can use it, destroy it if you can't use it. It's not convenient for me to deal with these."
Steven: "No problem, leave it to me."
Steven drove his car and moved all the things into his car. Hank also came over while moving, "Hey, Jimmy, we meet again. What are you doing?"
Jimmy: "I'm getting ready to go back to New York. I won't be able to use the things I bought here. Hank, let's see if there is anything useful."
Steven: "Okay, I'll take care of it later, Jimmy, so you don't have to worry."
Hank: "That's right, our brothers will take care of it. You went back some time ago and didn't receive any news. Azit's boss was killed. We have been very busy recently. Almost all of their younger brothers have been wiped out. ”
Jimmy smiled and patted them: "Then your recent performance must be good. Okay, after cleaning up here, I should go back. Goodbye, Steven, Hank."
After shaking hands and saying goodbye, Jimmy drove back to the airport, returned the rental car, and flew directly to New York.
