North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 248 Find him!
After hearing what James said, Jimmy thought for a while: "James, are you sure it's the Dixie family?"

James: "I'm sure, very sure. Although I didn't leave a file at the time, when I took over as the sheriff, I got the news from my predecessor.

The Dixie family has huge forces in the dark side of several southern states, and there are many outlaws among them. In order to ensure the safety of others, they promised that as long as Reina leaves safely, they will not attack others.We have no choice but to let Reina resign normally.Of course, the family members of the deceased police officers also received a lot of compensation, which can be regarded as an apology from the Dixie family. "

Jimmy: "I see, that's why you let Rainer release the hostages and leave Little Rock the last time he was in Little Rock. As long as he's out of the jurisdiction, it's fine, right?"

James: "Well, I can't joke about the lives of police officers. As a police chief, sometimes you have to compromise."

Jimmy: "I see, I will continue to investigate the case here, thank you, James."

James: "I'll wait for your news. Goodbye."

Jimmy: "Goodbye, James."

Jimmy hung up the phone and stood in the corner thinking about what to say to Ruiz.

Jimmy returned to his seat, picked up his suit and put it on, walked outside Ruiz's office, and knocked on the door: "Ruiz, do you want to go downstairs and smoke a cigarette?"

Ruiz looked up at Jimmy, then lowered his head and continued to look at the file: "No, you can go by yourself." Suddenly, as if thinking of something, he put the file in his hand on the table, "Wait, I'll go too."

Jimmy didn't move at all when Ruiz told him to go by himself just now, and only when Ruiz reacted and was about to go downstairs together did he put a smile on his face.

When they came downstairs, Jimmy and Ruiz walked to the corner of Federation Square. They each lit a cigarette. Ruiz said, "Let's talk."

Jimmy took a puff of smoke: "I just called my old boss at the police station and confirmed some news. You said this morning that Dixie's people came to find the Holy Crown Alliance, right?"

Ruiz nodded and did not speak. Jimmy continued: "The Rainer you showed me just now is a former county policeman. He is related to Dixie."

Ruiz looked at Jimmy, "Keep talking."

Jimmy: "Reiner didn't resign voluntarily, but something happened. Under pressure, the police department approved Reiner's resignation and let him leave Little Rock. The pressure came from the Dixie family.

From these past events, it can be inferred that Reina should be a member of the Dixie family, and his status should not be too low. The person in charge of the Dixie family who came to New York this time should have his position. "

Ruiz: "What happened?"

Jimmy: "There are some inside stories, but it doesn't affect us now. As long as it is confirmed that Reina belongs to the Dixie family, we have a target. I think we can shift the monitoring target now."

Ruiz thought about it, threw the cigarette butt away, and said to Jimmy: "This is a very important clue, let's go upstairs and arrange it."

Ruiz arranged for the monitoring team to adjust the target and investigate the surrounding cameras to confirm Reina's location. As for Jimmy, after providing clues, he was useless, and the task assigned to him continued to read the information.

Well, from Peter's side to Ruiz's side, his situation has not changed in any way, and he is still looking at files endlessly.

"Jimmy, let's go." Ruiz suddenly walked out of the office, shouted to Jimmy, and went straight to the elevator without waiting for Jimmy.

Jimmy was a little dazed by such a sudden attack, so he immediately picked up his clothes and ran to the elevator.

Ruiz was in such a hurry, something big must have happened, even the people in the office didn't wait to go directly to the elevator to go downstairs, what happened to such an important person.

Fortunately, the elevator had to wait for a while, enough for Jimmy to run over and follow Ruiz. In the elevator, Jimmy didn't ask. He didn't speak until Ruiz drove out of the parking lot.

Ruiz: "Something went wrong. A Russian gangster's lair in Brooklyn was taken away. It should have happened last night. It was only discovered at noon today. The son of their boss died."

Jimmy: "Which gang?"

Ruiz: "The Crow Gang has a small number of people, and their main business is underground casinos and smuggling. The trouble is that they are a branch of the local Russian gang Tomahawk. Although the relationship is not so close, they still have some connections after all."

Jimmy: "Russian Tomahawk? Famous?"

Ruiz: "Well, after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, there were many gangsters in Russia. Tomahawk was a big gangster that stood out among these gangsters. In the next few years, their people expanded to Europe and America. These people dared to fight Fighting, starting a fight when there is a disagreement, many times there is no way to reason.”

Jimmy: "This is obviously a gang fight or a vendetta. What does it have to do with us?"

Ruiz: "We need to control the situation. Every time something like this happens, there is always chaos. There is no way to stop the gangsters, but we must control them to avoid major incidents that endanger ordinary people."

Jimmy has learned a lot. In the past, in Little Rock, the gangsters were small-time gangsters. How can it be so serious here in New York, and it seems that the FBI is not so strong. They didn't attack these gangsters with heavy blows, but As long as it doesn't affect ordinary people, it doesn't matter.

When he arrived at the scene, Jimmy found that not only the FBI, but also several NYPD police officers were cordoning off the perimeter to maintain order. The FBI was collecting evidence in the building. Ruiz took Jimmy into the building. The body was still there, and the on-site investigation was not over yet.

Ruiz found a scout. "Anything?"

"Six people died, two on the first floor and four on the third floor. Only two bullet casings were found on the first floor. The third floor is currently under investigation and no bullet casings have been found. But it is very unusual that none of the people upstairs I don’t know if the mobile phone was taken away or they had something special, but they didn’t take it with them at all.”

The investigators took a plastic bag from the side, which contained two shell casings: "Parabellum 9mm shell casings, need to be sent back to the laboratory to check for fingerprints."

Ruiz: "Is there surveillance here? Have you checked the inside and outside of the house?"

Investigator: "No, it has been checked."

Ruiz: "Well, go ahead. Jimmy, let's go up."

When he came to the third floor, Ruiz looked at the corpses one by one, and finally there was a half-naked man on the bed in the bedroom. He was wearing pants, but it seemed that something happened suddenly. He put them on urgently, and his belt was not even tightened. There was a pistol beside him, but there were no bullet casings beside him, so he must have been killed before he could shoot.
