After Jimmy got the information, Chuck left. Most of the things they did these days were illegal, so it's not yet clear which of these things can be used and whether they can be put into the file, so they can't be taken. Returned to the police station and stayed directly with Jimmy.
Chuck believed that although Jimmy didn't say it, he must know what to do, and these pieces of evidence would be left in the right place at the end, and they would be returned to the police station file bag as evidence and report content to close the case.
In addition to the people from the Viper Gang who were investigated, the information Chuck brought also included the murder case that Nia was investigating before. This car accident was obviously aimed at the people who were following them, but he didn't expect Nia and the others to be policemen, so the murder case As for the cause, it naturally needs to be related to all the clues found.
Jimmy doesn't have any special feelings about the Viper Gang. There are so many gangs in New York that he won't do anything to them. But whoever arranged for the guy who hit Nia must be investigated. This is what Jimmy thinks now. Target.
The first thing is to identify the brother of the driver who caused the accident. Chuck arranged for people to investigate. He has disappeared and has not been seen in the past few days, neither at home nor in the nightclub.
Secondly, the person who is followed by Nia can find that Nia is following him and then arranges for someone to stop him. This person must have contacted the person arranged later.
The last step is to find the person who arranged for the driver to hit Nia. This is the person Jimmy wants to find. If everything goes well, it would be best to solve the murder together, and it will be Nia's credit.
Taking advantage of the weekend, Jimmy changed into a suit and wore sunglasses to go to the Viper Gang's restaurant.
The restaurant is not very big, and the dining table is a square table for four people against the wall like a regular restaurant. The overall environment looks relatively ordinary, and there is no special decoration style, but it seems that there are quite a lot of people.
The people dining here don't look like most of them are gang members like ordinary gangster restaurants. They look more like ordinary working-class people, with a few people wearing work clothes.
Jimmy ordered a grilled ribs and vegetables, a salad, and garlic bread. When he tasted it after it was served, it tasted really good, exceeding his expectations.
He called the waiter over, "Is Liliana here?"
The waiter smiled and replied: "Sorry, the manager is not here right now."
Jimmy put a few pieces of salad into his mouth and said while chewing: "Contact her, I will wait for her for half an hour."
The smile on the waiter's face disappeared, "Who are you?"
Jimmy didn't stop and continued eating his lunch: "FBI. Give her the phone."
This waiter is not the waiter who is suspected of being a gunman. It is obvious that the waiter is not in the restaurant. He has carefully observed the people in various rooms in the restaurant. The three people in the kitchen are all busy. It seems that they should All are chefs.
Jimmy chose blue-eyed Liliana as a breakthrough point to give them a chance. As the senior cadre of the Viper Gang's external liaison, Liliana should be easier to talk to, at least not to make a move when they meet.
When the waiter heard Jimmy mention the FBI, he turned around and left. As a waiter in this restaurant, she must know what this restaurant is about and who is behind it. Now that the FBI is coming openly, it is definitely not something she can handle as a waiter.
After the meal, Jimmy asked the waiter to bring him a glass of soda, and he just sat there and waited for almost half an hour. A middle-aged white woman walked into the restaurant from outside. The previous waiter came up to her and pointed at Jimmy. She walked over directly to the location.
There were not many people eating in the restaurant now, so Jimmy just sat and watched the lady sitting opposite him.
Liliana: "Excuse me, Mr. Agent, what do you want from me?"
Jimmy: "Blue-eyed Liliana?"
Liliana didn't look surprised at all. Since someone found this place, it was normal for him to know his nickname. "Yes."
Jimmy: "I came here to ask for two people from you. The first one is Max Hamilton."
Liliana frowned, "I don't have such a person here."
lucky
Mi: "Security guard at Snake Dance Club."
Liliana didn't say anything. It seemed that the FBI was investigating clearly.
Jimmy continued: "The second man is a gunman who shot a bank executive a few days ago and handed her over."
Liliana became obviously nervous. Although her sitting posture did not change, she clearly felt that her body was being controlled with force and was shaking slightly.
Liliana: "I don't know such a person."
Jimmy: "Don't try to deceive me. I'm here to give you face. I hope this conflict can be ended peacefully."
He reached into the inner pocket of his suit, took out a business card, put it on the table and pushed it over, "Call me when you find the person." After saying that, he stood up and left. The business card was customized by himself, with only Jimmy's name and His FBI phone number, nothing else.
Jimmy walked out of the restaurant, got into his car and left the restaurant. He only drove for a while and then turned around and came back. He parked far outside the restaurant and looked at the door of the restaurant.
Soon, Liliana left the restaurant, got into a Toyota Camry parked outside, started the car and left. Jimmy started the car and followed Liliana.
The Snake Dance Club is not far from the restaurant. Jimmy knows the location, but now Liliana is driving not to the Snake Dance Club, but out of the Hell's Kitchen area.
Jimmy smiled and drove behind him at a distance. He was driving his own Mercedes-Benz CLS. This car was not as conspicuous as the Sababan. It basically wouldn't stand out in the traffic on the road. As long as no one wrote down the license plate number, No one should be able to detect him following him.
There was obviously less traffic in Manhattan on weekends than on weekdays. Liliana's car quickly left Manhattan and headed for Jersey City across the river. Jimmy followed behind, somewhat hesitantly.
Jersey City can be regarded as a satellite city of New York. Quite a few people choose to settle in Jersey City. They go to work across the river and the transportation is convenient. The key is that Jersey City is large, housing prices are cheap, and rents are much cheaper than in Manhattan.
Jimmy had also considered buying a villa to live in the suburbs of Jersey City before. For living, the environment here is obviously much better than that in Manhattan. But for Jimmy now, the biggest problem is that Jersey City belongs to New Jersey, and he belongs to the FBI's New York Manhattan office. Although he also has law enforcement powers here, strictly speaking, it is a cross-border.
Following Liliana all the way to the northwest corner of Jersey City, Jimmy watched Liliana park the car in front of a villa, get out of the car and enter the house. He drove past the front of the house. There were four people in the house, including Liliana. Two of them were sitting in a study room, and the other two were in the living room and the other in the room on the second floor.
After writing down the house number, Jimmy called Chuck and asked him to find out who the house belonged to.
The investigation on Chuck's side continues, and Jimmy's side is still under surveillance. When it comes to tracking, apart from the professional monitoring team, Jimmy believes that the people Chuck is looking for are definitely not as good as him, because the information provided by Chuck does not include the residences of any of these gang leaders, nor the safe houses where they hide.
Max Hamilton, the brother of the driver who caused the accident, usually works as a security guard at the Snake Dance Club. This disappearance must be because his brother was arrested after the car accident. Normal car accidents will not lead to the accident party being caught, and his brother himself has not been arrested. There is an active arrest warrant. There must be a special reason for being arrested this time, so it is understandable that he hides.
But it is difficult to find his hiding place. Manhattan is not big, but there are many gangs and many apartments. No one can find him anywhere without going out.
Now Jimmy is using the tactic of alerting the enemy. Liliana met with Jimmy and got his business card. She will definitely investigate his identity. Jimmy's identity is not a secret. For gangsters, it is not a problem to find some connections to understand some basic information about him.
If they are targeted by such a person, they will definitely panic and naturally make mistakes. If they follow Liliana, they will most likely see their target directly.
More than half an hour later, Liliana came out of the main entrance of the villa, got in the car and left.
Jimmy did not continue to wait here. The number that Chuck could find
The data is all from New York, and the data here in New Jersey will definitely require a little bit of connections to investigate. This will take some time. There is no point in staring at the door before you are sure who owns this villa.
Following Liliana, we soon entered the return route. She was returning to Manhattan. All the way back to the restaurant, Liliana did not come out after entering the restaurant, and Jimmy could only wait outside. It was not dinner time now, so it would be too weird to enter the restaurant directly.
In the evening, Jimmy found that one of his targets had appeared. The waitress who was suspected of being a gunman came to the restaurant on a motorcycle. The motorcycle was parked in a small alley next to it. She walked into the restaurant carrying a bag.
She was riding a motorcycle without a helmet. Why did the NYPD patrol officers not stop her? New York State stipulates that both the driver and passenger of a motorcycle must wear a helmet.
Jimmy was not filing a case, and there was no need to leave any evidence files or anything like that, so he didn't bring a camera to take pictures at all. He started watching the waiter who was suspected of being the shooter from the outside as he entered the restaurant, and then saw her entering the dressing room at the back of the restaurant. room.
Well, there is a problem. Although he was not there to see it, Jimmy did notice that she took out the pistol from the locker in the locker room, checked it, and then took out the clothes inside and changed them. Sure enough, there is a problem. Who would keep a spare pistol at work? And he checked the pistol as soon as he arrived.
The target appeared, and Jimmy looked at his phone. It had been an afternoon, and Liliana hadn't called him.
Soon, Liliana and the Gunner waiter came out of the restaurant. The Gunner waiter was still wearing the clothes of a restaurant waiter and carrying a sports bucket bag. They got into Liliana's Camry and left the restaurant.
In front of a building under construction, Jimmy stopped and took a look. Liliana's car turned in. The security guard opened the door for her. It looked like they should be familiar with the security guard here. This building seems to be temporarily suspended. There are no large machinery inside, and there are not many people. It seems that they are just security guards here.
Jimmy confirmed their location, parked the car on the roadside in front, and turned to stare at them. Soon, Liliana's car came out, but there was only one person in the car.
This building under construction should be the temporary safe house they chose. Jimmy thought for a while, and after a while, he turned around and continued to follow Liliana to the outside of the Snake Dance Club.
Liliana parked the car nearby and walked in. Jimmy didn't wait outside, but got out of the car and followed in. This is another stronghold of the Viper Gang. If you are lucky, other cadres from their gang may appear here and complete the surveillance at once.
Snake Dance doesn't look particularly big from the outside. There are only two security guards outside to maintain order around the main entrance, and they are still wearing suits. They don't look like other gangster nightclubs that Jimmy has seen, especially underground nightclubs. confusion.
This Viper Gang is a bit interesting. Jimmy enters the nightclub, the music is deafening, and the people are dancing on the dance floor. Everything seems normal.
Unfortunately, he followed Liliana a little too far. Now after entering the nightclub, Jimmy directly lost his target.
After ordering a beer at the bar, Jimmy sat next to the bar and looked around at the crowd in the nightclub, trying to identify a few people in the photos he had seen.
Before finishing a glass of beer, Jimmy immediately put down the glass and left the nightclub. Just now he saw Liliana walking to the main entrance with a person. The person seemed to be the deputy of the Viper Gang, Miguel Rodriguez, nicknamed Miguel Rodriguez. shadow.
When he came outside, Jimmy walked to his car, abandoned Liliana, and followed Miguel's car out of the Snake Dance Club.
In an apartment building, Miguel walked into the apartment and came to a room on the second floor. There was a strong-looking man inside. He opened the door for Miguel, and the two started chatting inside.
Waiting for Miguel to leave, Jimmy walked into the apartment and knocked on the door on the second floor.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" The person inside asked as he opened the door. When he opened the door, he saw a Chinese man in a suit.
"Max Hamilton?" Jimmy asked,
The people in the house immediately closed the door, but Jimmy pushed hard against the door and hit it. The force of closing the door in a hurry was certainly not as strong as Jimmy's force of slamming the door. He successfully knocked the door open.
"Don't move." Jimmy pulled out his Glock and pointed at the person in the door, and asked again: "Max Hamilton?"
The man in the room failed in the strength competition at first. He was hit by the door and hit his arm. He staggered back two steps before he could stand still. When he was about to fight back, he saw a gun appearing in front of him, pointing at him. He immediately stopped moving and slowly raised his hands, "I am. Who are you?"
Jimmy waved the gun, "Get in. Turn around."
Jimmy searched him. Maybe because he was in the safe house, he was a little relaxed, and now he didn't have any weapons on him. Jimmy pulled the zip tie from his belt with his left hand, tied his hands behind his back, then pushed him to sit on the chair at the dining table before putting away the Glock.
Jimmy took out a pair of disposable gloves from the outer pocket of his suit and said while putting it on, "Max, you should know why I'm looking for you, right? Tell me, I need to know the answer. Who arranged for your brother to hit someone?" ?」
