The next day, Jimmy went out and bought a DC map. First, he determined the locations of the safe house, Rick's office address, and home address given by Tom. The most important thing was to look at the routes and plan his own action plan.
Jimmy came out without any luggage this time, so he checked out of the room and left empty-handed. This kind of motel is really smoky. Last night there were people smoking high, people having high-profile events, and people fighting for unknown reasons. It was a lively place. The key was that Jimmy could see them through the wall. The situation, I really don’t know what these people were thinking, it made him want to knock on the door and beat them up.
If it weren't for safety, I really wouldn't want to stay in a motel on the edge of the city. It's too messy.
Jimmy first went to the address given by Tom, a small apartment on the top floor of the apartment building. After making sure that no one was inside, he took out the key and opened the door. Of course, he put on gloves in advance. Although this kind of house was safe, it was impossible to protect the room that Tom had prepared. Is it a backup safe house for the CIA? Try not to leave any information about yourself.
Jimmy checked the room and saw a black suitcase under the bedroom window. He pulled it out and opened it. Inside was a set of documents, a stack of U.S. dollars, a pistol, two spare magazines, and a black pipe next to it. It's a silencer.
Jimmy checked the pistol. It was a Sig Sauer P226. It had a standard magazine of 15 rounds and a total of 45 rounds. He tried the silencer to make sure that the threads matched and could be installed. He took off the silencer and put it in his pocket. The pistol was strapped to his waist, and the two spare magazines were actually a bit much. There weren't many people he had to deal with, but to be on the safe side, he stuffed it into another pocket.
The documents and money won't move. Jimmy should have enough money with him. If it doesn't work, he can use his bank card to withdraw some spare money. It's not a big problem.
After covering the suitcase and putting it back under the bed, Jimmy looked at the room again to make sure there were no traces left, then left the house and locked the door.
Jimmy has never played with the P226. Most of the time, including training, he used Glock models. The county police used 92F, so he still needs to try the gun first. Anyway, the bullets should be enough.
Jimmy drove out of downtown Washington and came to Rock Creek Park in the northwest corner. According to the map, this area should be a large park forest environment. Most other places have residents. This is more suitable for him to practice.
The sound of gunfire can be absorbed in a forest environment, especially with a silencer. As long as you go a certain distance into the forest, you will never hear it outside.
Jimmy found a parking lot to park his car, and walked to a nearby forest area. His eyes could easily observe whether there were crowds of people around him. After walking a hundred meters into the forest, he pulled out his pistol, put on a silencer, and pointed it at a person. Shot at a broken area on a large tree.
Never consider the range of pistols such as semi-automatic pistols and revolvers to be too far. 30 meters is almost enough, and there are basically not many opportunities to use them beyond 50 meters.
The P226 does not have a safety, but uses a standby release lever and a first double-action trigger to achieve safety. Pulling the trigger directly for the first bullet is double-action mode. After firing the first shot, it will automatically enter single-action mode due to the semi-automatic reloading mechanism. If you pull the hammer first, you can start shooting directly in single-action mode.
This is different from the Glock used by Jimmy. Glock uses a trigger safety. The trigger has a raised part. When the trigger is pulled, the raised part moves backwards and flush with the other triggers. Unlock the internal trigger connecting rod and adjust the trigger again. Apply backward force, unlock the firing pin safety when the trigger travel reaches the designated position, and release the firing pin to complete the design.
Of course, Jimmy only determined the mechanism after trying it out after getting the pistol. It just needs to be pretty close to the point where he can get it right. This also reminded Jimmy that if he has the opportunity in the future, he should try all the common guns on the market to learn more about them so that he will not be unable to use them after picking them up.
I tested the double-action and single-action dual modes, and then tried the feel of loading the magazine. I made sure that there was no deviation in the sight of the gun at close range, and I was probably familiar with the strength of the trigger, so I felt relieved.
As he walked out of the forest, he observed the surroundings. After making sure that no one would notice him, Jimmy returned to the car, took off his gloves, and drove back to downtown DC. He would first start stalking near the national research and analysis team. After all, it was daytime. At this time, Rui Gram should be there.
The neighborhoods in Washington are very unfriendly to Jimmy. There are not as many people here as in New York, and the distance between buildings is larger. There are not as many remote lanes as in New York. And from Jimmy's observation, many intersections are fully monitored. For Jimmy, what to do this time? It's easy to expose yourself.
I carefully circled the building where Rick worked several times and the surrounding neighborhoods, but I still couldn't find a suitable ambush location. These places are either under surveillance or have relatively large traffic flow. Whether it is a traffic stop or a sneak attack, the possibility of leaving clues is very high.
Jimmy found a second-hand store and walked around, buying two pieces of clothing. He then went to a sports equipment store and bought an ordinary civilian telescope and a ski mask. He also bought cable ties and a flashlight at the hardware store. Everything was ready.
Scouting along Rick's road from get off work to his villa, Jimmy found several places where he could ambush at intersections, but they were not very safe. He had seen police patrol cars several times along the way. If it was true, It was discovered during the operation and it was easy to leave clues.
I drove around the villa. It looked pretty good. There were no surveillance cameras on the road. However, there were cameras in front and behind Rick's house. It was difficult to get in without being discovered.
It is impossible for a person in a high position like Rick not to install monitoring and various alarm equipment at home. If he tries to sneak in through the door or window, it will probably trigger a silent alarm directly. The monitoring host may not even be in the room, but Saved remotely in his office or something.
Jimmy drove the car away and found a restaurant on the roadside where Rick went home. He had dinner and waited. It would be best if he could see his car. If he couldn't see it, he could just go there at night.
At night, Jimmy parked his car far away from Rick's villa and used cheap binoculars to look at Rick's villa from time to time. Until now, there were no lights on. This is probably not Rick's permanent villa. Jimmy can be sure that there is no one inside now. If he can't wait tonight, he will have to go to his work place tomorrow and wait to follow him after get off work.
Waiting until after 10 o'clock, Jimmy finally discovered that the car lights were on in front of Rick's villa. After a while, the lights inside the house were also on. In the scene, Jimmy ate a piece of chocolate, drank some water, and observed with a telescope in the car. From the window, he could see obvious figures moving inside. Yes, when midnight comes, Jimmy can go in and destroy the surveillance and try to enter the house.
No one could stop luck when it came. Jimmy just waited for more than half an hour, and Rick's figure suddenly appeared in the telescope. He opened the door, moved his limbs and twisted at the door, turned around, closed the door and started running in the community.
Jimmy was a little confused. He was not in the habit of running at night. He never expected that Rick would change into sportswear and go out for a run after arriving home. But this can be considered good luck. The cameras in his home were already very troublesome, but he voluntarily ran out, which was just right for Jimmy to do his job.
Rick's home is on a curved road in the community, and the direction he runs is opposite to where Jimmy parked his car. However, according to Jimmy's investigation of the surroundings, he either goes back in a circle and passes Jimmy's car, or he runs to the intersection and then Turning around and coming back, Jimmy didn't act in a hurry. There was only no one where he was parking. If he walked further, he would be in sight of other villas.
Turning to look behind him, Jimmy soon saw Rick jogging from behind. It seemed that he had indeed chosen to run around the semi-circular road. Good fitness habits are harmful to personal safety, although this is a high-end place. Community.
Jimmy put on his ski hood and opened the car door. When Rick was almost behind the car, he pushed open the door and pointed his gun at Rick, "Don't scream, robbery."
Rick was running when he suddenly saw a black man getting out of a dark car in front of him. He aimed a gun at himself and immediately changed from jogging to throwing himself to the side. Jimmy didn't give him a chance to dodge the counterattack and fired twice. The pistol with a silencer still made a lot of noise. He had noticed it when he was in the forest before, so Jimmy didn't plan to wait too long.
Rick threw himself on the lawn next to him. He originally planned to rush behind the flower wall next to him. As Jimmy fired, he knew there was no way to hide. He was shot in the leg. "Hey, stop, I surrender."
Jimmy watched Rick raise his hands and walked over. "Don't move." He grabbed his hands and twisted them behind his back. He took out the zip ties and tied them. After a brief search, he said, "Stand up and get in the car."
Rick limped and followed Jimmy to the car and sat in the back seat. Jimmy got to the cab and started the car and left Rick's house. Rick saw the direction they left from behind and his expression turned very bad. "Who are you?"
Jimmy ignored him, "Shut up."
Rick didn't shut up at all, "Do I know you? Why? Who asked you to come?"
After Jimmy told him to shut up twice, he ignored him and drove directly north to Maryland, bypassing Bladensburg at the junction of Maryland and Washington DC, and found a place in the suburbs with no people around. Jimmy then Park the car next to the woods on the roadside.
"Get out of the car." Jimmy took Rick to the woods, made sure there was no one around, and then pushed Rick to the ground. Rick sat up against the tree and looked at Jimmy: "Now you can tell me who you are. Bar?"
Jimmy took off his ski mask, took out the flashlight and turned it on, shining it on his face, "Do you have any impression now?"
"FXXK! Jimmy, how did you find me? Who told you?" Rick suddenly became very excited. He had been wondering what was going on since he was kidnapped, because it has been two months and he has been fine. Thinking that Jimmy didn't notice them at all, he was just guessing what enemies he had before.
Jimmy: "It seems you know who I am. Tell me, what happened before?"
Rick: "This was just a misunderstanding. After the operation, we discovered that you were not part of the plan, so we stopped all follow-up operations. You should know that there was no attack against you at all."
Jimmy shook his head: "You lied."
Rick: "I'm not lying. Since you came here, you must already know the content of the Stumbling Block Project. We are only targeting people who entered the experiment. You are in the control group and have not participated in our plan at all."
Jimmy: "To start from the beginning, I think you should make up the lie more perfectly. We have enough time, now, let's get started."
Rick sighed: "So, I don't have a chance, right?"
Jimmy: "Everyone must pay the price for their actions."
Rick: "Fxxk! I knew it." Rick took a deep breath and said: "OK! OK! It's not me who wants to kill you, I'm just helping someone out. The person you should be looking for is Nick Sullivan. He asked I added your name to the action.”
Jimmy: "Who is he?"
Rick: "An intelligence broker, publicly identified as a lobbyist, his main scope of activities is the Department of Defense and DHS, and he also has some connections with the CIA."
Jimmy: "Why me?"
Rick: "I don't know. You were originally in the Treadstone Plan, but it was not involved in our plan, so there was no action against you in the previous arrangement. Later, Sullivan found me because I owed him something. He was a favor, so he added you to the cleanup plan, but after the sniper failed, we stopped all operations against you."
Jimmy: "How many attacks were there in total?"
Rick: "Only once."
Jimmy looked at Rick. He was a little broken now, so what he said should be true to a large extent. Then the ambush of the five-man team...
Jimmy: "Where's Nick Sullivan?"
Rick reported his address and then said: "Come on, you have received so much training, you will have no problem killing him. Let's do it."
Jimmy: "Any last words?"
Rick: "Do it."
"Bang", after shooting, Jimmy took out his pocket knife, removed the tie on Rick's wrist, took off his pocket bag, and returned to the car. He checked the back seat. There was a lot of blood from the injury on Rick's leg. There were now blood stains on the back seat and on the floor. The car could no longer be taken and needed to be taken care of.
Jimmy did not drive directly back to DC. Instead, he drove along the road for a while until he found a small river. He parked the car by the river and flushed the back seat with river water.
In the dark night environment, Jimmy did not use the driving lights and flashlights at all. After rinsing twice, he checked with a flashlight to make sure there were no obvious blood stains on the car seat and floor surface. Then he returned to the road, found a motel, and parked the car outside. Abandoned and went to a motel to rest.
Lying in bed, Jimmy thought about Rick's words. Nick Sullivan went to Little Rock to find Jimmy's relatives and friends and Roy Nelson, who was monitoring James. It was also arranged by this Nick Sullivan. It seemed that this Sullivan was Gray. Ge’s external contact person.
