Mahone turned his head slightly to look at the door. He was surprised when he saw Jimmy, and then a little smile appeared on his face: "Jimmy, why are you here?"
Jimmy stepped forward and put the flowers in his hand on the bedside cabinet. There was no vase for him to arrange flowers here, so bad review.
Glancing at Ma Hong, Jimmy frowned. It had only been three months since he last saw Ma Hong. How could Ma Hong have lost so much weight? The cheekbones were clearly exposed, and the cheeks were somewhat sunken and retracted, making him look very haggard.
Jimmy: "Hughes informed me that you were shot and admitted to the hospital. How are you now? You look bad. Why have you lost so much weight?"
Mahone pushed the hospital bed hard with both hands. Jimmy quickly reached out to help Mahone up. Mahone sat on the head of the bed and leaned on the pillow. He pointed at his left chest and said, "I was shot here. I will be discharged soon."
Jimmy looked at the bandage wrapped around Mahone's chest, "Penetrating injury?"
Ma Hong nodded, "It's not a big problem."
Jimmy: "That's good. It looks like it almost hurt your heart. It's really dangerous. So, the question just now, why have you lost so much weight?"
Jimmy turned around and looked around to make sure there was no one around and there was no surveillance in the ward. He looked at Ma Hong's face and whispered: "It's impossible for the nutritional meals in the hospital to make you lose so much weight in a week. What's going on?"
Ma Hong's face immediately darkened, "It's nothing. I've been busy recently and haven't eaten regularly. I'll take a good rest after I catch a few people who escaped from prison."
Jimmy: "Have you forgotten that I am also an agent? I have seen this state from some people too many times. What kind of people are not there in New York? Which one is yours? Drug dependence or drugs?"
Ma Hong raised his head and looked at the ceiling. After a few seconds, he raised his head and said: "Tranquilizer. Don't tell other people."
He has been working with Jimmy for a year, and he is very clear about Jimmy's abilities and character. Since Jimmy can see it, there is no need to hide it. Jimmy is not a talkative person. It makes no difference whether he talks or not. If he doesn't talk, it will make the relationship between the two more tense.
Jimmy waved his fist, pointed at Mahone and cursed in a low voice: "FxxK! Don't you know how troublesome this thing will be when you become addicted? How long has it been?"
Ma Hong: "It's been over a year, it's okay, I'm used to it."
Jimmy was really speechless for such a long time. When Mahone came, he discovered Mahone's anomaly not long after they worked together. However, Ruiz helped investigate and the result was that he had just divorced and was probably in a bad mood. Didn't even care.
Moreover, when Mahone was in Manhattan, New York, he was not as thin as he is now, and he did not show any problems in his daily life. Jimmy had no idea that he was taking sedatives for a long time.
Jimmy: "For what?"
Ma Hong shook his head and said nothing.
Jimmy looked at Mahone and calculated the time. It should have started around the time of his divorce. Alas, in the United States, divorce is a disaster for middle-aged men. It is not uncommon for them to take drugs when they are in a bad mood. Drug dependence is so common that no one can solve it.
Jimmy: "Okay, I won't ask anymore, as long as you know what's going on. If you need anything, you can always come to me, but I'm not sure if I'll still be in the Manhattan office in the future."
Mahone: "What? What happened?"
Jimmy: "More than two weeks ago, two agents in the field office were shot, one dead and the other injured. We had an accident while handling this shooting case. We raided a residential building in violation of regulations and killed the two gunmen.
It didn't work out too well. Ruiz was suspended for a week and I was suspended for two weeks while I was being transferred out of the field.
Now that the suspension period is over, I don’t know where I will be transferred yet. I came to see you this time, and I will go back and wait for the notice. "
Ma Hong: "Who died? And how come you don't know where to transfer? Since the transfer is arranged, it must be decided in advance."
Jimmy: "Ryan in the Brooklyn-Queens field office was shot, Derek died, and Ryan has recovered. Under normal circumstances, the transfer must have been scheduled, but this time after I returned to work, I continued to No arrangements were made for me.
Someone told me that the people above me had disagreements about my position arrangement. Hughes must know something, but he didn't say anything. "
Mahone looked at Jimmy, his eyes moved left and right, and after thinking for a while, he said: "You have been suspended for two weeks and have been back to work for a few days. You just said that Hughes informed you that I was shot, right? You Have you ever thought that Hughes asked you to come here specifically, could it be related to your change of department? It has been a week since I was shot, and Hughes already knew about it."
Jimmy: "Wait."
Jimmy looked around, pulled a chair over and sat next to Mahone's bed, "I did have some thoughts when I came here. Hughes would not do anything in vain. He must have had some special purpose when he mentioned that you were shot. I was going to come see you and then hang around here in Chicago to see what Hughes was implying.
Since Hughes asked me to come here, he must have a purpose, but they are all Riddlers and never make things clear. "
Ma Hong: "I understand, please go out first."
Jimmy stood up to leave the ward. Mahone took out a mobile phone from under the pillow. When Jimmy went out, he heard the sound of the mobile phone turning on.
When Jimmy called Mahone before, he had turned off his phone. Since the phone was charged and kept beside him, he turned it off on purpose and did not want to contact anyone on the phone. It seems that things on Mahone's side are very troublesome. Being able to shut down his phone and avoid trouble would probably put a lot of pressure on him.
Two minutes later, Mahone called Jimmy inside. He came in, closed the door, and sat in front of Mahone's bed. "Are you sure?"
Ma Hong's face turned even worse: "I just contacted someone to help with the investigation. It's possible, it's very possible that you were implicated by me."
Jimmy nodded: "OK. It seems that this is what Hughes meant. Let's talk about it. I want to see who is behind it."
Mahone: "There is an organization called 'The Company'. It's unclear who their boss is, but the people in the organization cover many government departments such as the Secret Service, FBI, CIA, etc. On the surface, they are not They exist, but what is currently known is that they are very powerful in government agencies and cover a wide range of areas.
I was threatened by them for some things and was transferred from Manhattan to Chicago to handle this jailbreak case. Do you know about this prison break? "
Jimmy: "I don't know much about it. I just know that eight people escaped from Fox River Prison. I haven't paid attention to it since. You are following up. I don't need to keep an eye on the progress. I believe you can definitely handle it."
Ma Hong: "There are only six people now, and two people have been killed during the arrest. My goal is to catch them, and at the same time I am blackmailed to kill them, otherwise my ex-wife and children will be targeted by them. "
Jimmy: "Wait, they're using your ex-wife and kids to blackmail you?"
Mahone nodded: "I caught the masterminds of the escape, Mike Schofield and Lincoln Barrows, before I was shot. Then I was shot and wounded by a former company agent and they ran away."
Jimmy: "What does that have to do with me?"
Ma Hong: "After I was shot, I told my contact that the former company agent injured me and saved Mike and Lincoln and they escaped. After that, they had to follow up on their own. It seems that I have become their target, so you I was also implicated.
I was shot a week ago, when you were still on suspension. If my guess is correct, they should know your information and hope to transfer you away to avoid getting involved in my affairs. "
Jimmy: "Let me sort it out. There is a very powerful organization called the 'Company'. They need to kill the person who escaped this time for some reasons. While you were doing it, you were injured by a former member of the organization. At the same time, two escaped suspects were rescued.
Now you are injured and unable to deal with it for the time being, and something seems to have happened and your relationship with them is at loggerheads.
In order to prevent me from helping you, they may want to take advantage of my suspension to transfer me to another office or to Quantico to physically separate from you.
Is the process roughly like this? "
Ma Hong nodded: "If my guess is correct, it should be like this."
Jimmy: "Who contacted you? Who arranged your secondment application?"
Ma Hong: "The reason is very good in the bureau. There is no way to investigate this aspect. I can only confirm that the company has enough connections to influence the management of the Chicago office."
Jimmy: "Who informed you of the threat?"
Ma Hong: "I didn't know them before."
Jimmy: "Such a big thing happened, why didn't you tell me in advance?"
Ma Hong: "No one knows about this. If you hadn't been implicated this time, I wouldn't have told you."
Jimmy sighed, "Let me think about it, do you have any information about the people in that organization?"
Mahone: "I only know two, one is the former agent who injured me, Paul Kellerman, a Secret Service agent, white, no hair, between 35-40 years old, about 185cm tall, who was also chasing him at the beginning. Killed Mike and Lincoln, but didn't know what happened later, and suddenly rebelled.
The other is also a Secret Service agent, Bill King, who is in his 30s, about 175cm tall, Asian, and bald like you. He is Kellerman's superior. "
Jimmy: "So they're using your family to threaten you?"
Mahone nodded: "Yes, I love my wife and children, and I can do anything, whether legal or illegal, as long as they are safe."
Jimmy: "I understand. Are there any photos of them? Is there any other information?"
Ma Hong: "No, every meeting is at a temporarily agreed location. I have no way to leave surveillance information."
Jimmy: "Well, before dealing with these things, I want to relieve you of your worries. Mahone, tell me the location of your ex-wife and children, and I will take care of it."
Mahone: "Are you sure?"
Jimmy: "Trust me, I'll figure it out."
Mahone nodded and gave Jimmy an address, in Chicago.
Jimmy stood up, "I'm leaving first, you can rest in peace and recover."
Jimmy left the hospital, still feeling uncomfortable.
A senior FBI agent, the head of the homicide team, and a person in an important branch such as the Manhattan office, was threatened to do something like this, or this kind of illegal pursuit, how aggrieved Ma Hong felt, with his heels You can think of it.
For the sake of his family, Ma Hong went to do things without saying a word and did not involve other people. It was not until he was shot and went to the hospital that he fell out with the other party. It was not easy.
Jimmy likes Mahone very much. He has quick thinking and top-notch fighting skills. He devotes everything to his family. Even though the things he does this time are dirty, Jimmy is not the kind of person with serious moral obsessiveness.
They speculated that Mahone was responsible for this incident, so if they wanted to pursue the investigation, they must first hide Mahone's weaknesses. Jimmy himself does not have the ability to hide Mahone's ex-wife and children, so now he can only find the person most likely to help Jimmy achieve this goal.
After leaving the hospital, Jimmy found a mobile phone store, bought a prepaid mobile phone, and called Winston, the person most likely to handle this matter.
Jimmy: "Hi, Winston. I'm Jimmy, and I need your help."
Winston: "Oh, you say."
Jimmy: "I have two guys that need to be transferred for a while, unofficially."
Winston: "Anything else?"
Jimmy: "They're in Chicago."
Winston: "I think you might want to send them to New York."
Jimmy: "Can you arrange for someone to come and pick them up? I can't get out for the time being."
Winston: "Charon will contact you."
Jimmy: "Thanks, Winston."
Jimmy hung up the phone and suddenly remembered that he forgot to ask the price. Jimmy's affection for Winston has grown rapidly, and now he feels like an acquaintance and good friend, but in fact, they have never been in contact with each other a few times.
Picking up the phone and about to redial, Jimmy put the phone down again. Forget it, Winston didn't say, no matter what, let's deal with things first, he also put a large sum of money with Winston.
The reward for the previous mission has been received. Charon sent a small red box with 20 gold coins in it, which was far more than Jimmy originally thought. He would be satisfied if he could return 14 to Justin.
Whether it's a mission or a friend's help this time, let's deal with it later. Now think about what to do next.
In the communication with Ma Hong just now, Jimmy has basically determined the target, the organization called "Company". Although it has not been determined yet, Mahone has the same idea as him, that is, Hughes arranged for Jimmy to come to Mahone, so it must be related to him.
Now Mahone's trouble is the "Company" organization. They threatened Mahone to kill several jailbreak suspects, so their suspicion is the biggest. It can't be those jailbreakers who are behind it.
Jimmy is not interested in jailbreak people at the moment, but Mahone himself is not familiar with the people in the company, so he still has to find a way to find out their information.
Jimmy found various stores nearby, bought a laptop, a camera, and some clothes, and checked into a hotel. At night, Jimmy appeared on the street, stared at some people, prepared protection, and It didn't take much time to get two pistols.
Jimmy can use this kind of black gun at will, and the two people he beat down will not choose to call the police. After all, they are street dealers. After being robbed of the black gun, they go to the police on their own. They will be in more trouble than Jimmy.
Charon had already called Jimmy during the day and confirmed Jimmy's location. Early the next morning, there was a knock on the door of Jimmy's hotel room. When Jimmy opened the door, Charon came over by himself.
Charon: "Good morning, Mr. Yang."
Jimmy: "Charon, you came here by yourself. I thought you would arrange for others to come. Come in."
Charon walked into the room: "The manager hopes things go smoothly."
Jimmy: "Wait a moment. I'll pack up. I need to go to the hospital first."
Charon did not sit down to rest, but stood with gloved hands in front of him. His suit was still straight, and his etiquette was impeccable.
Jimmy has long known from Justin's side that Charon is Winston's most trusted person and is definitely not a simple front desk person. In fact, Charon is closer to the role of Winston's butler. Whenever you see Charon, his attitude makes people feel very comfortable.
