Louis drove in front, and Jimmy followed from a distance. It looked like he was going to Queens, but he parked in front of an apartment. A young man who looked like he had many tattoos came over to drive. Louis changed to the passenger seat and the car turned around. Heading northeast, we are heading to the Bronx.
It seems that there will be a harvest this time. Most of the Lotariano family's territory is in Harlem, Manhattan. The area is not large, and the remaining part is not in the Bronx, but in Queens.
Now Louis' car is heading straight to the Bronx, and that's the biggest problem.
If they want to go to Queens, they can take the Triborough Bridge directly southeast. The Triborough Bridge connects Manhattan, the Bronx, and Queens. There is no need to go around the Bronx.
The car in front of them circled twice in the Bronx neighborhood. Jimmy immediately slowed down and further distanced himself from them. They might have really noticed that someone might be following them, otherwise they wouldn't have circled around a block. .
Jimmy came out of the office driving a Saab with a car. This model is too familiar to people like Louis. Maybe they just discovered Jimmy's car.
Finally, Louis in front stopped, and the two parked the car on the side of the road. Louis got out of the car and walked into a coffee shop at the intersection, while another young man was waiting in the car. Jimmy crossed the door of the coffee shop and saw Louis entering the shop and sitting at a table in the corner.
He looked around and saw that there was no suitable store at this intersection for him to monitor and pretend at the same time. He could only park the car on the other side of the intersection, turn on the dual flashlights and park on the side of the road, sit in the car and smoke and wait.
After showing his ID and sending away two police patrol cars, Jimmy finally waited until Louis left the coffee shop. During this time, several people passed by his table, but no one sat across from him. He took out his cell phone and made a call, but Jimmy never found anyone chatting with him in the coffee shop.
It's been a long time since he followed like this. Jimmy was actually a little irritable, but there was nothing he could do. He only had one person, and the new guy hadn't been arranged yet. He probably had to wait until Ruiz took over.
After leaving the cafe, Louis got in the car and started it again. This time they parked near the Bronx Zoo. Soon another car parked behind Louis's car, flashed its headlights, and they left in front and back.
Jimmy followed them east, eventually stopping in a warehouse district. All four people in the two cars got out of the car. As they looked around, a bald man caught Jimmy's interest. Ruiz once provided him with an inside tip, Seventeen, when he was helping him inquire about information.
The four people made sure that no one was paying attention to them, so they walked to a warehouse, opened the door and walked in, but left two people guarding the door.
Jimmy was still a little far away from them. Originally, he was going to continue watching from the side, but now that he spotted the familiar bald head, he decided to put it aside for now.
Jimmy took out his phone and called Ruiz: "Ruiz, do you remember that I asked you to help me investigate a case in the Bronx? Did you find someone to give me some clues? Numerical name."
Ruiz: "What happened? Has it to do with him?"
Jimmy looked over at the warehouse, "Well, I was following up on a case and found that the person I was following met him in a warehouse."
Ruiz: "Don't contact him. Come find me when you return to the office."
Jimmy: "Okay...FK!"
Jimmy was about to end the call when he suddenly heard a not too loud gunshot. Two people outside the warehouse turned around and were opening the rolling shutter door upwards.
Jimmy: "I heard gunshots coming from their direction. I went to take a look."
After hanging up the phone, Jimmy pressed the hidden police lights and siren, started the car with flashing and beeping sounds, and drove towards the warehouse.
When Jimmy drove to the warehouse, the gunfire inside had started again. When the sirens approached the door, the gunfire inside disappeared.
Jimmy got out of the car, pulled out his Glock and hid behind the front hood. Most of the situation in the warehouse was already clear through his mental observation.
There were seven people still standing and hiding in the warehouse. According to the shape of the ground, at least two people could be seen falling to the ground.
There were four people in total, Louis and Seventeen, which meant that there were originally five people in the warehouse. They had caused some big trouble and actually opened fire in the warehouse.
The siren didn't stop, the people inside had stopped, and now they were aiming at the door.
Jimmy left the car and came to the warehouse door from the side. The rolling shutter door they had just opened was now on the ground. Jimmy was not interested in opening the rolling shutter door. The action of opening the door would reveal his position. It was no joke to be shot by the people inside.
Jimmy reached out and slapped the rolling shutter door while shouting: "FBI, people inside, listen, put down your weapons, come out and surrender with your hands up."
Upon hearing the FBI, the people inside immediately ran to the innermost part of the warehouse. Jimmy originally thought they were getting together, but suddenly found that the wall there was opened by them.
"FxxK!" Jimmy turned around immediately. He was going around from the outside to the back of the warehouse, much slower than the people inside.
Looking at the running people in front of him, Jimmy chased with a gun and shouted: "FBI, put down your weapons and surrender."
"Bang bang" A man ran sideways and fired two shots in the direction of Jimmy, and then continued to turn around and run.
Jimmy sped up and chased after him. When the distance got closer, he raised his right hand and fired three shots at the person who was shooting at him in front of him. He fired while running. It was still difficult to maintain accuracy. Fortunately, Jimmy I didn't pursue a kill, I aimed at the torso. Although it was different from the position I thought, I still got two shots on the torso.
The running man was suddenly shot. He was so nervous that he failed to stabilize his movements and fell directly to the ground. He rolled several times before stopping, and the gun in his hand also fell to the ground.
Jimmy saw that his gun landed far away, so he did not stop to catch the person, but directly passed him and chased the person in front.
With the sound of Jimmy's gunfire, the people running in front also began to dodge, hiding behind other warehouses and next to cars parked outside the warehouse.
Jimmy saw their actions, turned around urgently, and hid behind a corner, "FBI, everyone, listen, put down your weapons and surrender."
Jimmy looked at their positions. There were three people far away. They seemed to be ready to slip away, bending over to leave, while the three people closer to Jimmy were looking for Jimmy's position with their pistols raised.
Jimmy is not sure which of these three people is Seventeen and which is Lewis. He still has use for these two people and cannot kill them casually. He didn't dare to shoot directly, so he could only take a risk and let them show his face first to confirm his identity, and then see how to deal with it.
Jimmy turned his head and glanced at the man who was shot. He was still where he stopped before, but he was struggling to hide away. The pistol was still on the ground.
Holding up the Glock to reveal his position, Jimmy repeatedly yelled a warning, causing two people to shoot. All of them hit the wall at the corner of the warehouse. Jimmy had determined the thickness of the corner here, and it was not the kind that could be penetrated with one shot. of iron sheets.
Staring at their position, Jimmy stretched out his Glock to aim and fired continuously. Only one person was hit by one shot and immediately hid behind a truck. The other person shot back a few times when Jimmy fired and then hid. Now he is asking the man who was shot how he is doing.
Jimmy could barely hear them talking, but couldn't make out what they were talking about, but it didn't matter to him. The Glock still had five bullets left, and with three people on the opposite side capable of counterattack, that was almost enough.
Jimmy came out from behind the corner, aimed at the position of the three people and moved forward. He saw the silhouette of the shadow behind the car coming to the side of the car and was about to emerge. He shot directly at the shadow's position, still on the torso.
"Ah", the person who was just about to take a look at Jimmy's position fell backwards, and the last intact person rushed out and began to tilt his pistol bullets in Jimmy's direction without even aiming.
Jimmy didn't give him much chance. He fired all the remaining three bullets, pressed the magazine latch, and the magazine fell freely. The spare magazine was already in his hand and loaded into the Glock.
"Put down your weapons!" All three people were shot. The three people in the distance had already escaped. Now there were four wounded on Jimmy's side, and he could no longer pursue them.
"I surrender, save me." One person couldn't bear it anymore and threw the pistol in his hand directly on the ground.
"You guys, throw the gun over." Jimmy aimed at the three people behind the truck. They had all fallen to the ground, but they were still able to resist.
After Jimmy shouted several times, they finally gave up and threw their guns aside out of reach.
Jimmy aimed the gun at them with his right hand and asked them to lie down facing the ground with their hands behind their backs. After everyone did so, he took out the zip tie from his belt with his left hand, then took off his only handcuff and cuffed one first. After one person, the other two had to make do with zip ties.
After doing a simple body search and kicking the pistol away from the ground, Jimmy took out his cell phone and dialed the police number, notifying the NYPD to come and block the scene. At the same time, he asked them to notify the ambulance and fire trucks to come and send the four wounded people to the hospital.
Then he ran towards the first person who was shot. He was already lying on the ground. He gave up running completely and was pressing his hand on the location where he was shot in the abdomen.
After Jimmy put the zip tie on him, he took out his cell phone again, dialed Ruiz's number, roughly told him the location, and asked him to arrange for backup agents to come over, and then called Peter's number.
Although Peter is the acting supervisor now, he still needs to be notified about such a major event.
After listening to Jimmy's statement and reasons, Peter agreed to arrange for personnel to investigate. Jimmy then hung up the phone and began to provide emergency treatment for them.
Among the four people stopped by Jimmy, Shiqi and Louis were not among them. It seemed that, among other things, these big guys were definitely good at escaping. It was an old tradition to arrange for their subordinates to intercept Jimmy and buy them time to escape. That's why it's so difficult to catch gangsters. They don't arrest them on the spot, and all kinds of cases will be blocked by the firewalls they set up.
This is the former industrial area of the Bronx, not too far from the East River and the Harlem River. There are a large number of old industrial buildings and warehouses in this area, and few people live there. It is a rare remote, quiet, and quiet place in New York City. An area with less traffic.
The shootout between Jimmy and the others attracted the attention of some people in the warehouse area, but no one came out to watch. Jimmy could see that there were people in other warehouses, and most of them were hiding somewhere. This habit was good and would not cause any trouble to Jimmy. .
The NYPD patrol car arrived as quickly as possible. Jimmy showed his ID, and the NYPD patrol officers helped replace the zip ties with the handcuffs they carried, which made them feel a little better. The handcuffs can be adjusted for tightness, but the cable ties are meant to prevent them from breaking free, so Jimmy tightened them a little tight, and the cable ties cannot be adjusted for tightness, so the experience is very poor.
When the ambulance arrived, the nearest investigation team had already arrived. They were originally Ruiz's surveillance team monitoring gangs. Because of an emergency on Jimmy's side, Ruiz directly arranged for them to come over to help deal with it. He knew that Jimmy was alone, and even if the NYPD rushed to the scene, they would still not be able to command as well. It's convenient for the FBI to have its own people.
When the first batch of forensic officers arrived at the scene, Jimmy directed them to enter the warehouse through the back door for inspection. The two lying people they saw on the ground were now two corpses.
The people in the forensic department looked at the warehouse and their expressions turned bad. For Jimmy, what he focuses on is people, but the people in the forensic department have to extract clues. The larger the area, the greater the workload for them.
There is no other way. Let's call back and summon a group of people to come over and deal with it together. A team of two people will definitely not be able to handle this scene.
Jimmy looked at a person on the ground and frowned. This person looked very familiar, very similar to the Marco he had investigated before.
Because the photo on the file was not a recent photo, Jimmy was not sure whether this person was Marco. He could only wait until he returned and asked the medical examiner's office to do a DNA comparison. Fortunately, Mrs. Melissa's DNA information was still available. exist.
The on-site treatment was not generally resolved until the evening. The four gang members who were shot have been sent to the hospital. Except for one unlucky guy who died of serious injuries, the remaining three survived and are now guarded by the NYPD in the hospital. Jimmy's side Contact people are also needed to replace them.
Jimmy did not go back from get off work, but returned to the office. Ruiz and Peter did not get off work, waiting for him to come back to report what happened today, but they were not together.
Jimmy first reported his situation to Peter because he was investigating Marco for arson and murder. Later, he found that none of the three deceased were Marco who was supposed to rent the room. Then he followed Marco's superior Luis to the warehouse. .
Then he heard gunshots. Out of his duties as an FBI agent, Jimmy came to the scene with his lights and siren on. A shootout ensued, and he intercepted four of the gang members and three of them escaped.
Peter's side is easier to deal with, but Ruiz's side is the trouble, that is, Seventeen, which must be clarified. (End of chapter)
