Jimmy came to Mrs. Mason's office: "Mrs. Mason, we have a big problem here. Agent Peter Bolk of the White Collar Group and his wife Elizabeth were kidnapped."
Mrs. Mason frowned, "When did it happen? Why didn't anyone notify us of press controls?"
Jimmy sighed: "You know, Hughes retired, and now there is no director in the field department. Because I had been in Peter's team for half a year, and I didn't know until Jones from their team called me."
Mrs. Mason: "So what are you going to do now?"
Jimmy: "I can't sit idly by. I need to go out and investigate some information."
Mrs. Mason: "Do you need our help?"
Jimmy: "It's not clear yet, but I want to at least ensure news control first. In addition, I may need more time."
Mrs. Mason: "Go ahead. Call Isabel over for me."
Jimmy nodded: "Thanks, Mrs. Mason."
Jimmy left Mrs. Mason's office, first asked Isabel to ask her to find Mrs. Mason, then returned to Jones, directly copied a dozen of Nate and Penny's photo files, left the office with the files, and drove to Brooke Forest.
As he drove, he called Ruiz to determine which gang's territory was in Frackbush, Brooklyn. It's not that Jimmy is a bit shady. In fact, how could there be no one to protect a place like a second-hand car dealership?
Ruiz didn't know that Peter had been kidnapped. It was a little strange when Jimmy called him. After Jimmy told him the reason, he immediately arranged for someone to investigate the information.
Although Ruiz and Peter usually don't deal with each other very much, the main reason is actually because of Neil Caffrey.
Ruiz is in charge of the organized crime project, and he really doesn't have a good impression of criminals, because the criminals he has seen are either small-time gangsters or heinous criminals, and there are basically not many in the middle.
Ruiz has no problem with using criminals as assistants and informants to handle cases, but having a criminal become an official consultant to the FBI and work in an FBI office is not something he can accept. For this, many in the bureau Some people have some criticisms.
But with the cooperation of Neil, Peter increased the detection rate of the cases they were responsible for to more than 80%, far exceeding the detection rate of other teams. No one can deny this, not just the Manhattan office, headquarters and other branches. of people are also interested in their crime detection rate.
Now that Peter and his wife have been kidnapped, this is not the time for quarrels. When Jimmy arrives at his destination, news from Ruiz also arrives, but Jimmy needs to wait here for a while, and Ruiz will bring someone over. Investigate with Jimmy.
Ruiz brought two people over. After meeting Jimmy, he took him directly to a restaurant, went to the front desk and said, "FBI, I'm looking for Iron Hand Moratti."
The girl at the front desk looked at the four men in suits in front of her with wide eyes, and shook her head violently, "I don't know who you are talking about."
Ruiz didn't waste any more nonsense. He took out his cell phone and dialed a bunch of numbers. "Moratti, I'm FBI Ruiz. I'm in your restaurant. I'll give you ten minutes to come over. ... Don't talk nonsense." I know where you live."
After hanging up the phone, Ruiz took Jimmy and the others to sit by the window, "Latte, thank you."
About fifteen minutes later, a bald white man walked in, "Who is Ruiz?"
Ruiz turned to look at him, "Sit down, I'm Ruiz."
Moratti: "OK, I'm here. How can I help you?"
Ruiz: "A car dealership here collected a car this morning. That car belongs to us, and the owner of the car was kidnapped. Now, I need you to find the person who drove over to sell. He came from Where did you get the car and when did you get it.”
Kidnapping, a car belonging to the FBI, these keywords made Moratti very nervous. He took a deep breath: "Did our people do it?"
Ruiz: "The suspicion cannot be ruled out for the time being. You don't expect to escape. Go and investigate. I need to know what is going on."
Moratti: "Give me the license plate number."
Ruiz reported his license plate, got up and left the restaurant. For this kind of investigation, the FBI is not as good as the local gangs. They can do it more thoroughly, but official personnel like the FBI cannot do many things.
Ruiz: "Wait here, Jimmy."
Jimmy followed Ruiz to the side. Ruiz said: "I can't wait here for too long now, and I can't spare my hands. There are a lot of people to follow over there."
Jimmy: "I understand, what's going on over there now?"
Ruiz: "Part of it has been determined, but the evidence has not been obtained yet. We are currently investigating and following up. You may need to follow up on Peter's issue."
Jimmy: "I understand. Give me Moratti's phone number and I'll contact him later."
Ruiz nodded and directly reported Moratti's mobile phone number, "This guy used to be a member of the Genovese family. Later he came out to start a small gang on his own, and occasionally contacted people from the Genovese family. , so I haven’t gotten rid of him yet. Be careful and don’t let him fool you.”
Jimmy sneered, "I'll tell him to be honest. You go and do your work."
Ruiz nodded, turned back to the car and waved to the other two people to get in, and they left.
Jimmy wrote down Moratti's mobile phone number, and then returned to the restaurant. Moratti was making a phone call in the corner. When he saw Jimmy coming over, he said a few words and hung up the phone.
Jimmy: "Moratti, I am FBI senior agent Jimmy Young. Your people have found clues and informed me that Ruiz has gone back for something."
Moratti frowned and looked at Jimmy, waited for a few seconds for his expression to change, and then immediately nodded slightly, "I understand, can you leave your phone number?"
Jimmy took out his cell phone and dialed, waited for Moratti's phone to ring before hanging up, then took a photo of Nate and Penny and handed it to Moratti, "Thank you, I'm waiting for your call. Also, I'm here Find these two people, they should be responsible for this car, start your people."
Moratti: "Of course, I will. I will arrange for someone to come over now."
Jimmy nodded, turned around and left the restaurant, driving away from the area.
Just relying on this gang is definitely not enough. Jimmy thought for a while. Officials cannot thoroughly investigate such a large area. The key is that even if the people who robber are hiding, they must be in various abandoned houses or warehouses. It is difficult for official people to reach out.
Parking the car on the side of the road, Jimmy dialed Winston's number.
Jimmy: "Winston, I need your help. I want to find two people in southern Brooklyn. It's very urgent. Do you have any suggestions? I have a cash reward, but I can't release it with much fanfare. I don't want the whole thing to be publicized." All the gangsters in New York are showing up to look for people, it’s too much of a movement.”
Winston: "Oh, it seems you are really anxious. Let me think about it, which area do you want?"
Jimmy: "From the Brooklyn Bridge to Prospect Park, if it's convenient, this section to the south is also required. I have the names of the photos of these two people, but I don't know where they are hiding."
Winston: "I see, it might be expensive."
Jimmy: "I'm waiting for your offer."
Winston: "Someone will contact you later."
——
Jimmy was busy looking for someone, and Jones and the others didn't wait. They still relied on the information in their hands to investigate.
Nate, who escaped from prison last week and robbed and kidnapped Peter today, has collected all his belongings in prison, and all the correspondence between him and Penny during their time in prison. Everyone is investigating their information. I hope You can find clues to determine their whereabouts.
Today they robbed a bottle of Louis XVI's Queen Marie perfume in the bedroom in a boutique, plus the Marilyn Monroe's that was found on Penny's hand and was robbed two days ago. From the rings, it can be inferred that the two of them are grabbing something corresponding to their agreement.
The reason for this judgment is that they have found two corresponding clues from the letter. One is that they hope to be together after being released from prison, so they went to grab the ring, and the other is that Nate will treat her like a queen. Penny, then Queen Mary's perfume means that this item is complete.
All that's left is to investigate the contents of the other letters and see if they can find their next target.
They have already robbed twice in three days, and it is very likely that the third robbery will be in these two days. It is definitely not a good thing for the kidnapped Peter and Elizabeth, because the two people who robbed are obviously not very smart. The importance of purity.
The Joint Command Center is also investigating the surveillance video. It has been determined that they are in Brooklyn. However, the surveillance lost the target midway. After that, the surveillance at several intersections was changed and the car was not seen.
This is also a drawback. The FBI has too few people, and it is impossible to send them all to investigate. They can only rely on these technical investigations and clues to infer, and it is estimated that they will not be able to solve it in a while.
——
Jimmy waited for a while, and then his cell phone rang. A strange caller said, "This is Jimmy here."
"Mr. Yang? How long will it take for you to reach the south end of the Brooklyn Bridge?"
Jimmy looked around and said, "Fifteen minutes."
"Call me when it's time."
Jimmy: "OK."
This should be the contact information Winston gave him. Jimmy started the car and rushed to the Brooklyn Bridge. The office was not very far, and the traffic was okay during the day, so it didn't waste much time.
When they arrived at the south end of the Brooklyn Bridge, Jimmy didn't get on the bridge. He stopped at the intersection below and called to report his location. Soon a man came over and knocked on Jimmy's car window.
Jimmy turned around and looked over. A homeless man motioned to him to open the door. Jimmy opened the door and let him sit over. He gave directions to Jimmy and parked in a parking lot.
"Please come with me, and I will take you to see King Bowery."
The homeless man got out of the car and motioned for Jimmy to follow, and the two walked to a nearby building until they reached the top of the building.
This is a gathering place for homeless people. From downstairs, you can see many people in tattered and disheveled clothes hanging around. There are also many people in the building, but they look slightly better, but their clothes are about the same.
It's just that in Jimmy's mind's eye, this building is not simple. It can be clearly seen that many people are busy doing something in the rooms inside. In addition, many weapon-shaped things are found in various rooms, and there are people. Holding it directly in your hand means that this place may be like a gang headquarters, or at least a large stronghold with considerable force.
At the top of the building, a stubble-faced short-haired black man stood in front of people holding a dove and looked at Jimmy, "Jimmy Young. The God of War in Manhattan! The Butcher of Little Rock! The youngest legendary agent of the FBI! I didn't expect that we would actually interact with each other." when."
Jimmy: "The Bowery King?"
King Bowery: "Yes, how can I help you?"
Jimmy reached out and took out a piece of information that had been folded in advance: "I need to find these two people. They committed a robbery in Manhattan this morning and kidnapped two people at the same time. The last location they were seen in was in Brooklyn, and they took the robbed car. Abandoned in Flatbush, Brooklyn, picked up by a used car dealership.”
King Bowery didn't answer. The person who brought Jimmy up earlier reached out and took away the information. "I understand. So, do you have any other requests?"
Jimmy: "Find them and the hostages need to be safe. Can it be done?"
King Bowery: "Of course, here, I see everything and know everything."
Jimmy: "OK, where's the reward?"
King Bowery: "It's just a favor."
Jimmy: "No, it's better to pay directly. You can make an offer."
King Bowery: "First cooperation, two hundred thousand."
Jimmy: "Deal."
King Bowery stretched out his hand to shake Jimmy's hand and said, "Please be patient and wait for the news." He let go of his hand and made a sign of seeing off the guests. The person who brought Jimmy took Jimmy off the roof again.
Jimmy drove away until he could no longer see the homeless man in the rearview mirror, then turned towards Moratti's restaurant. Although he spent money to buy information from King Bowery, he couldn't lose it here.
This is a clue given by Ruiz. At least it is very useful as a surface cover. Regardless of whether he can find it or not, it is a good supplement.
Soon, Moratti called, "Agent Yang, the person who sold the car has been found."
Jimmy: "Meet me in your restaurant."
Moratti: "Okay."
Jimmy came to the restaurant and saw Moratti's position at a glance. He was sitting at the table in the corner, and a thin child stood next to him.
Moratti patted the child next to him: "That's the car he found, Eddie."
Jimmy nodded: "Eddie, where did you find that car?"
Eddie said a little timidly: "Near Yeshiva College on East Ninth Street in Kensington, the car door was not closed and the key was still on it, so I drove away."
Jimmy: "Do you remember the location?"
Eddie: "Remember."
Jimmy looked at Moratti: "I'll take him away, don't worry, he'll be fine."
Moratti: "Of course, it is his honor to serve you. Eddie, listen to Agent Yang in everything."
Eddie nodded and walked over to Jimmy.
Jimmy: "Then we'll leave first. Thank you, Moratti."
Moratti stood up and shook hands with Jimmy: "Please don't be so polite. If you have any questions, you are welcome to come over at any time."
Jimmy left the restaurant with Eddie. Moratti walked to the door and watched them get in the car and leave, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. Ruiz is not a good person. He is such an irritable man without warning at all. I really don’t know what the consequences will be if he says the wrong thing.
He recognized Jimmy. As a gangster, he certainly knew some things, including the destruction of the Viper Gang and terrorist attacks. As an agent who could survive being ambushed on the street and attacked by grenades and rocket launchers, he could survive without provocation. Work honestly and don't make trouble. It would be a shame if something unexpected happens and you follow in the footsteps of the Viper Gang.
This was also the driving force for him to find the person so quickly. If Ruiz, the FBI agent responsible for organized crime, was just targeting him, he would have just finished it without delaying the matter at most, and he would not have worked so hard to find him.
Jimmy took Eddie to the location where he found the car and looked around. There was really no surveillance here, at least no obvious surveillance, because this was a residential area, and even if there was surveillance, the most you could do was look at your own door. (End of chapter)
