Jimmy tidied up. Today was to pick up Mahone's ex-wife and children. Forget about the shopping suit last night, he changed into a suit honestly, took his ID and his two revolvers. After thinking about it, he took the one he borrowed yesterday. A pistol was stuck in the waist.
When he was about to leave, he remembered that he hadn't prepared a car yet. He went to the bedside and picked up the phone and called the front desk to ask them to call a taxi. Charon suddenly spoke: "Excuse me, sir, I drove over."
Jimmy: "Wait a minute." He held the phone in his hand and looked at Charon: "Did you drive?"
Charon nodded, and Jimmy said into the phone: "Sorry, cancel the taxi, thank you."
After hanging up the phone, Jimmy said to Charon: "Thank you, Charon. You are so well prepared."
Charon leaned forward slightly and said, "As long as you are satisfied."
Jimmy and Charon went downstairs together and saw Charon's car, an Audi A8. Well, it was indeed the style of the InterContinental Hotel. Winston went out using a RR. Although he didn't come this time, the car Charon used was still a luxury car.
Charon opened the back seat door, asked Jimmy to get in, then got into the driver's seat and drove away from the hotel.
In Mahone's ward, Jimmy stood in front of Mahone's bed, "Mahon, you need to tell your ex-wife, I will pick her up right away."
Mahone: "Now?"
Jimmy nodded, "Everything is ready. Just ask them to prepare their belongings. There is no need to bring anything else."
Mahone took out his cell phone and turned it on while looking at Jimmy, his eyes somewhat confused.
Mahone: "Hi, Pam, it's me. ... Someone is going to find you later and take you and Cameron away for a while. ... Sorry, some special circumstances. Yeah, bye."
Mahone hung up the phone, looked at Jimmy and nodded.
Jimmy: "OK, I'll go over first."
Arriving outside the ward, Jimmy nodded to Charon, and the two left the hospital and drove to Mahone's ex-wife's place.
Jimmy looked left and right in the car, "Charon, don't stop yet, drive slowly along this street."
Charon didn't refuse at all. He looked at the road ahead and replied casually: "Yes, sir."
At the intersection, Jimmy didn't say the direction. Charon turned right, then circled the block and returned to the door of Mahone's ex-wife's house.
Jimmy: "OK, stop."
He unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car, arranged his suit beside the car, then came to the door and knocked on the door.
A woman came to open the door, and Jimmy showed his ID: "FBI, Jimmy Young. Are you Pam?"
Pam nodded: "What's the matter?"
Jimmy smiled and said, "Mahon called you just now. I'm here to pick you up and Cameron."
Pam frowned: "Now?"
Jimmy nodded: "Sorry for being so sudden, the matter is a bit urgent. Are you and Cameron ready?"
Pam bit her lip, "I don't know what happened. Does it have to be like this?"
Jimmy: "I'm sorry, I can't go into details, but it really needs to be done now."
Pam nodded, "Please wait a moment, I'll ask Cameron to come downstairs."
Pam carried Mahone's son Cameron, a 3 or 4-year-old child, downstairs. She only brought a bag and followed Jimmy to the car on the roadside.
Jimmy opened the back door for Pam and let mother and son sit in the back seat. He sat in the passenger seat and looked at Charon: "Charon, please."
Charon: "It's an honor to help you, sir. Then, we will go back first."
Jimmy nodded: "Help me say thank you to him."
Charon: "Of course."
Jimmy turned to look at Pam and Cameron: "Please don't worry, the matter with Mahone will be resolved soon, and then you can come back normally. Goodbye, Pam, Cameron."
Jimmy opened the car door and got out, closed the car door and waved his hand inside. Charon started the car and left.
When Charon's car left, the smile on Jimmy's face disappeared. After walking around here just now, Jimmy discovered an unusual location. There is a two-story building diagonally opposite Mahone's ex-wife's house. There is a tripod behind a window on the second floor with a telescope on it. Look at the angle. It was Mahone’s ex-wife’s house.
It's just that there's no one in that house now, it's empty over there, at least there's no one there to watch at the moment. This also shows that Mahone is right. Someone did threaten him with his ex-wife and children.
Maybe it's because Ma Hong has been tracking down several people who escaped from prison in the past month. The people behind the scenes thought that he was very honest now, so they temporarily removed the surveillance personnel, but the surveillance positions were not removed.
Jimmy is not from the Chicago office, and he can't handle the case here, and what he wants to do now is not handling the case, so there is no point in investigating fingerprints to confirm identity.
Since there was no one in that room, there was no need to go in to investigate. Jimmy walked forward for a while. Fortunately, a taxi happened to pass by. After extending his hand to say hello, Jimmy returned to the hospital.
Jimmy: "It's arranged."
Mahone: "Thanks, Jimmy."
Jimmy: "Anything else you want to say?"
Mahone: "That's all. Jimmy, I'm sorry, I did a lot..."
Jimmy: "Don't say it. Just chase the fugitives as normal, and I'll take care of the other things. Don't tell anyone, and don't do anything that makes it easy for others to take advantage of you."
Ma Hong took a deep breath and nodded.
Jimmy took a mobile phone from his pocket and threw it to Mahone, "My number is already on the dialing list, please contact me if you need anything."
Mahone: "I will return to my Chicago office as soon as possible to continue the investigation."
Jimmy: "That's good, I'll go back first."
After that, Jimmy left the ward and returned to the hotel. Jimmy changed his clothes, took a backpack, put his notebook and camera, and put a hoodie on it and left the hotel.
It is very sad not to have a car, but Jimmy came here mainly to see Mahone and did not prepare a backup identity, so he could only buy a second-hand car in his own name for temporary use.
When everything was ready, Jimmy drove the second-hand car he just bought to the hospital parking lot and called Mahone, "I'm ready, you can find a way to contact them."
Mahone would come up with a way to contact people in the company. Jimmy squatted here, waiting for news from him. He told them over the phone that it was inconvenient and asked them to meet Mahone in person. It shouldn’t be a big problem. It just depends on whether he can find a good reason.
While waiting for news, Jimmy picked up the FBI-issued cell phone and called Felicia.
Felicia is Mahone's black female partner who was originally transferred to New York with him. This time, she was also seconded to the Chicago office with Mahone to investigate the prison escape case. Since Mahone was shot, Felicia was not here and must be chasing the suspect. Otherwise, given her relationship with Mahone, she would not have been seen in the hospital for two consecutive days.
Jimmy: "Felicia, this is Jimmy. How's your case going now?"
Felicia: "Jimmy, long time no see. The investigation here is still going on. Mahone was shot and is recuperating in the hospital."
Jimmy: "Well, I know, I have contacted him. How is the progress over there? Have you found anything?"
Felicia: "Two suspects have been recovered, and the six people currently on the run have some clues. Don't worry, we will get it done."
Jimmy: "Well, that's good. If you need my help, remember to call me."
Felicia just said a few words briefly and did not disclose the complete investigation results. It is understandable that Jimmy should be in Manhattan under normal circumstances and cannot help at all with the prison escape case in Chicago. Naturally, there is no need to say anything. Too much.
Jimmy took his cell phone and found John Butler's number and dialed it.
Jimmy: "Hi, John. I'm Jimmy, FBI."
John: "Oh, Jimmy, long time no see. Are you in DC?"
Jimmy: "Not here, just calling to say hello. Are you at work?"
John: "No, I'm on vacation and spending two days with my family."
Jimmy: "Oh, have fun. John, do you have a guy named Paul Kellerman in your Secret Service?"
John: "No impression, what's wrong? What happened?"
Jimmy: "Where's Bill King?"
John: "Well, he is my colleague. What happened? Why do you ask this?"
Jimmy: "A friend has a small dispute with him, and he wants me to mediate. For a small matter, can you give me his phone number?"
John: "I'll send it to you later. If you need help, I'll be back in DC in two days. Contact me then."
Jimmy: "OK, have fun."
John quickly sent a text message with Bill King's phone number.
As USSS Secret Service agents, their mobile phones, like those of FBI agents, cannot be directly located, and information can only be read through special channels.
Although there is no way to directly use the FBI system to investigate, Jimmy is not completely helpless. He was in the car, and the newly purchased computer could not access the Internet directly, nor could he log into the CIA system, but he had left Nancy's phone number before.
Jimmy dialed Nancy's phone: "Hi, Nancy, this is Jimmy. Caitlin's guy, remember?"
Nancy: "Oh, I remember you, is there anything wrong?"
Jimmy: "Well, I would also like to ask you to check a mobile phone number for me."
Nancy: "Give me a minute. Go ahead."
Jimmy reported his mobile phone number, and Nancy said, "Oh, sorry, I don't have the permission to check the location of this number."
Jimmy: "OK, thank you. I'll treat you to a big dinner when I go to Langley later."
Nancy laughed out loud, "OK, I'll wait for you."
When Nancy helped Jimmy investigate the location of the mobile phone number, Jimmy wanted to have a good relationship with her and find a way to get some information about the relevant people from her. Unfortunately, he was not ready yet, and things happened again.
Thinking about it, it seemed that the only place where the information could be found was the InterContinental Hotel, but calling Winston to find out his mobile phone number seemed a bit excessive. Jimmy thought for a while and decided to call Charon first.
Jimmy called Charon, "Charon, have you taken off?"
Charon: "Not yet, we will take off in half an hour. Mr. Yang, what can I do?"
Jimmy: "I want to buy a piece of information through your channel. I have a mobile phone number and need to know the corresponding person information and location. Don't send a task, contact me privately. The fee will be paid later."
Charon: "Of course, I'll take care of it. Please send me your number."
Charon was so considerate and envied Winston. He said it would take off in half an hour, so he probably wouldn't arrange for Pam and Cameron to take a commercial flight. It should be a private plane and it would take a little time to apply for a route.
Jimmy sent his cell phone number to Charon and continued to wait for Mahone's notification.
After a long time, Jimmy got out of the car and smoked several times before Mahone called, "Jimmy, two escaped prisoners, Mike and Lincoln, and Kellerman, who shot and wounded me, showed up in Montana. .
They notified the TV station by phone last night that there was major news to be released, but when the police and the TV station arrived at the scene, they found that they had shot an unidentified person, kidnapped a TV station photographer, and escaped the police blockade. They are now being arrested by the local area. Wanted by the police.
I was contacted by Bill King, the Secret Service agent who contacted me, but he was out of Chicago and couldn't meet. I suspect he went to Montana. "
Jimmy: "Then what should we do? Wait here? I haven't even gotten his photo yet."
Ma Hong: "I don't know exactly where he will go. I can only take one step at a time. I will talk to the doctor and return to the office as soon as possible to participate in the investigation."
Jimmy: "Okay, don't worry about Pam and Cameron. They will go to New York for a while and work on the case in peace."
Jimmy gave up staying in the hospital and drove to the home of Mahone's ex-wife Pam, staring at the house that monitored their home on the roadside.
A few hours have passed, but there is still no one inside. This is the location that can best determine the location of Bill King's men. Now that there are no other clues, we can only wait and wait.
In the afternoon, Charon was the first to receive the news. He called Jimmy and found a street copy shop to provide him with the fax machine number. Jimmy successfully obtained two pieces of information, one of which was Bill King’s basic information and photo, and the other one is the location of the mobile phone number.
Bill is not in Washington, DC, nor in Chicago. He is in Helena (also translated as Helena), the capital of Montana. Obviously, Bill King received the news a little earlier than Mahone. After receiving the news, he ran to Helena, hoping to find Mike and the others there.
This is a bit troublesome. Chicago is in the middle and Montana is in the northwest. The distance is still a bit far. Although we now have photos, if you want to find a specific person in a city who is not a local, you have to locate it. Very difficult.
At night, Jimmy finally waited for the person he was looking for.
A car stopped in front of the house and two men got out. Jimmy watched them open the door and enter the two-story building. One person was on the first floor, and the other person went up to the second floor and came behind the telescope.
Soon, the people below ran upstairs. The two said something next to the telescope, and then one of them held a mobile phone to his ear and walked downstairs while making a call.
