North American Gunslinger Detective

The FBI did not know much about Mexico, and the information Jimmy could print out was only a few pages, which did not reflect the extent of the chaos there. So Ruiz sent Jimmy back after reading his information, and he went to find it. Others will come back with some information.

This time things are a bit troublesome. If they are really involved in the Mexican drug lord war, although they may not come to New York to kill Seventeen, it will always be a hidden danger. You must know that these drug lords are all billions Rich people, although they can't come to trouble openly, but just spreading a little news privately can make people miserable.

So now it is necessary to find out in advance who has been tricked by Shi Qi this time and how serious it is. Whether they want to launch a counterattack or directly press the matter this time, they need sufficient intelligence support.

After all, Seventeen had been undercover in the underworld for many years. His sources of information were complex, but he was also very efficient. That night, he found the location of Cripple Todd and successfully controlled him. Waiting for Jimmy the next morning When they arrived at the office, they had finished interrogating and were having breakfast in the conference room.

Jimmy came to the conference room after receiving a call from Ruiz. Seventeen closed the lunch box in front of him and threw it into the trash can next to him. "OK, it's confirmed now. I was indeed taken advantage of."

Seventeen took the folder next to him and pushed the photos inside to Ruiz and Jimmy: "Look at this, you will never guess what the C4 they made is used for."

Ruiz and Jimmy looked at the photo. It seemed to be a photo of an abandoned factory, but there was no special label. Seventeen continued to take out several printed maps, "Here, the Brooklyn Navy Yard, this place has been abandoned for many years. It has not been completely renovated yet. According to the city government's plan, it is expected to be transformed into an art innovation center in the next few years, but there is no final decision yet.

Look at this again. This was taken after we interrogated this early this morning. This abandoned dock has been transformed by this group of people. An internal dock was dug out next to it. However, it is still being adjusted and has not been completed. This The batch of C4 is used for blasting. After it is completed, this place will become a submarine dock for them. Good guy, they can really think of doing this kind of thing in New York.

When I caught Todd yesterday, he was near this dock. It seems that they have been doing it for a while, but I always thought they were well hidden. If we hadn't caught their tail this time, they would have really I can't believe they even have homemade submarines. "

Ruiz: "Have you found their construction team?"

Seventeen: "No, the construction site seems to have been suspended for a while. Todd admitted that it was because their equipment and explosives were not in place, so they were forced to delay the progress. The construction team was brought in from other places and was temporarily sent out of New York. "

Ruiz: "Where are their submarines?"

Seventeen: "Those who are not Cripple Todd, he turned out to be a middleman. He wanted to expand his business and took over this task from others."

Jimmy asked: "I have a question, where does their C4 come from? This is a controlled product. Can the source be traced?"

Seventeen: "I haven't asked yet. He is only responsible for making requests. The goods are delivered from the source."

Ruiz saw that Jimmy didn't continue to ask, so he said, "Where is Todd now? How is he?"

Seventeen: "In the underground clinic."

Well, it seems that the work done by Seventeen and the others is a bit rough. To deal with Todd in one night will definitely be a bit too much, but when it comes to going to the underground clinic, I guess Todd can change his nickname in the future, and the cripple should have already There are no words to describe his features.

Ruiz didn't pay attention to Todd. He was thinking about the follow-up to the matter, "So, how do you want to deal with this matter?"

Seventeen shrugged: "We'll talk about it later. It's not settled yet. Let me investigate again."

Ruiz nodded: "Some things are better to go through the process."

Seventeen nodded, organized the information into the folder, stood up and left the conference room.

Jimmy also stood up and looked at Ruiz: "Let's have a drink tonight?"

Ruiz looked at Jimmy, waited for a few seconds and nodded: "Okay."

Jimmy: "Meet you at the bar." After waving his hand, Jimmy also left the conference room.

There was still some doubt about this matter, but in front of Seventeen, Jimmy did not bring it up directly. After all, this was the conference room of the bureau, so some things should not be made too clear.

The key is what Ruiz is thinking. What they are doing now has seriously deviated from what FBI agents should do, not to mention whether Seventeen will follow the formal procedures and report it to the anti-terrorism team. As far as the line they handled before The clues provided by people were about violations. Also, after Jimmy and Ruiz left, how did Seventeen handle that batch of goods? .

Of course Ruiz also understood what Jimmy meant, so he agreed after just thinking about it. Some things still needed to be communicated to avoid misjudgment.

After getting off work in the evening, Ruiz drove directly to Jimmy's bar. After saying hello to Woody, he went to the small room next to him, where he drank and waited for Jimmy.

By the time Jimmy arrived, Ruiz must have drunk a lot. When he saw Jimmy coming to the small room, he pushed a glass to Jimmy and poured the wine: "You're late."

Jimmy: "There was a little problem. I went out with Mark and the others in the afternoon. Cheers."

Jimmy picked up the glass and clinked it with Ruiz, drank the whiskey in the glass in one gulp, then unbuttoned his suit and sat across from Ruiz: "Ruiz, let's not say those polite words. I want to know, you guys What are you doing?"

Ruiz: "Jimmy, have you ever been undercover?"

Jimmy shook his head, "No, I have been moving around several groups since I arrived at the bureau. I have never participated in undercover missions. I still don't have the right to pay informants."

Ruiz: "It's hard to be an undercover agent. I live in fear every day. I don't dare to contact people I knew before. I don't dare to use all the funds and wages provided by the bureau for fear that I will be exposed."

Ruiz poured himself another glass as he spoke. He did not move quickly. He did not look at Jimmy, but stared at the bottle in his hand. "Many people have experienced this kind of day, and I am no exception. I am luckier than others." What's more, I only worked undercover for a few months before due to an accident, I was separated from the original mission and returned to the agency."

Ruiz looked at Jimmy: "Seventeen is the unfortunate one, because he has been an undercover agent for a long time and came to New York from another place. He just went from a fringe employee to the management step by step, providing us with Many important clues were obtained, and of course a great price was paid.”

Ruiz paused for a while, playing with the wine glass in his hand, raised it, took a sip, and exhaled, "There are many things that cannot be said. There are some things that everyone knows and can understand. As long as you can live with your face, Go ahead, there are some things that don’t need to be pursued.”

Jimmy nodded. He had considered this situation before. Because Seventeen might implicate Ruiz, he went to Hughes specifically to ask him to help intervene, but now Ruiz has always been Does the seventeen mentioned have nothing to do with him?
Ruiz waited for a while and saw that Jimmy did not answer. He continued: "The contact person before Seventeen was not me. I took it from someone else. Before that, Seventeen was already doing it. Something, for himself and for other people."

Ruiz stared at Jimmy, "Seventeen and other colleagues like Seventeen, many things they do are in the confidentiality stage and have not yet been declassified, so don't make any noise about some things, especially with you. Things that have nothing to do with me." Jimmy: "Do you believe him?"

Ruiz leaned back against the back of the sofa: "Of course."

The corner of Jimmy's mouth curled up: "Then why did you ask me to go with you? For protection?"

Ruiz's eyes shrank for a moment and then recovered quickly. If Jimmy hadn't been observing his expression, he might not have noticed it.Taking a sip of wine, Ruiz took a while before speaking: "This is not a conflict, after all, we are outside New York."

This time they met Seventeen in New Jersey, not in New York, but did they need Jimmy to protect him just because they were crossing regions?

Jimmy: "How did you handle the goods this time?"

Ruiz shook his head, "Seventeen will deal with it and won't implicate anyone."

Jimmy: "No, I'm not worried that he will implicate you, but I am concerned about that batch of drugs. You know what I hate most are drug dealers. If...I mean if, Seventeen resells this batch of goods... …”

Ruiz stared at Jimmy, his eyes a little nervous: "He won't do it. If it's some ordinary luxuries, he can handle it casually. Don't worry, he understands."

Jimmy: "Don't worry about me. I can definitely figure out what they are doing. Don't worry. It's just that you'd better let him do the finishing work to avoid other mistakes."

Ruiz nodded, picked up the bottle and poured wine for himself and Jimmy: "Cheers."

It would be great if Jimmy could understand, so as to avoid a big gap between them. Ruiz is one of the people who is most familiar with Jimmy in the bureau. What is his character and attitude towards enemies? Who knows better than Ruiz?They were a lifelong friendship.

Another point is, does Ruiz really trust Seventeen?Not necessarily, otherwise there is really no need for him to ask Jimmy to accompany him to New Jersey to meet Seventeen. There is definitely trust, but complete trust is not necessarily true.

Ruiz only knows part of many things that Seventeen is involved in. No one can guarantee that Seventeen will not cause any big events here. However, in the face of Jimmy's inquiry, Ruiz must speak for Seventeen, otherwise this will happen. There was no way the matter could end.

Jimmy: "By the way, one more thing. Those C4 and Seventeen conclusions are problematic. Please note that PETN is generally used for building blasting or underground blasting. There are many people who can use C4 as a blasting explosive. No, if he is deceived, then there will be problems with the subsequent use of those explosives."

Ruiz was not familiar with the bombings. He frowned and looked at Jimmy: "Are you sure?"

Jimmy: "Of course, I have handled a lot of bombing cases. I also participated in a basement blasting some time ago. I am very familiar with the types of explosives they use for blasting."

Ruiz: "I'll talk to him."

The main topic was over, and they all relaxed a lot. Ruiz also knew that Jimmy recognized a godson. When he found out that the godson was Elliot, whom Jimmy had rescued before, he was a little surprised. Jimmy also said that he had time to take care of him. Elliot went to the office to get to know them, they were nephews.

In the next few days, Jimmy didn't receive any more calls from Ruiz, nor did he see Seventeen again, and he didn't know how they were handling it.

He paid attention to the recent case list and found no cases of accidental death. Of course, people died every day, but they usually had normal death certificates. He must be focusing on those vendetta assassinations and the like.

He could probably guess the way they did things in Seventeen. The lame Todd was most likely going to be unlucky. If he didn't survive, he would basically be on the accidental death list.

It’s just that they haven’t found any information, but because of his investigation, Mark and Julia were nervous. They even asked Jimmy to ask if there were any missing clues in any of their cases. Now Jimmy is wiping their butts...

Jimmy comforted them and asked them to continue investigating the case normally. What he was investigating now had nothing to do with their case.

Finally, Jimmy received a call from Ruiz over the weekend and asked him to meet at an abandoned boat dock in Brooklyn.

Jimmy came here for the first time and saw Ruiz's car outside. Ruiz and Seventeen were already inside.Jimmy didn't call them, just looked at their location and walked over.

"Is this their submarine dock?"

Jimmy came outside a dock and stood on the platform looking at the deep pit below. Seventeen and Ruiz were standing inside.

Ruiz glanced up at Jimmy and waved him down.

It's really secretive here. There is a platform above to cover it, and there is an expanded waterway below. There is a simple retractable dock that can be extended to the waterway. If it is a submarine, it should be just above the exit.

Jimmy: "This is where they're ready to go? Looks like that's about it."

Ruiz nodded: "Yes, it's right here. The place where they are going to blast is over there, and they are going to expand a warehouse location."

Jimmy: "Seventeen, I have a question, who does this place belong to? They have spent so much effort to build such a submarine dock, do they expect the government to re-plan and develop this place in just a few months?"

Seventeen: "Of course it's different. It's not that easy to develop here. The military, the Ministry of National Defense and the shipyard are competing with each other. If the city government wants to completely take over the renovation of this place, it will take a long time, which is enough for them to make a lot of money." ."

Jimmy: "So, why did you bring me here?"

　Sorry, it took me a while to make up for the content this morning.The flu is severe and I have been feeling groggy these past few nights. I try my best.
