North American Gunslinger Detective

This interrogation was very simple, just a slight threat. The intensity of the activities of the Tucker family tonight was enough to scare Bob.

He didn't know what was going on at first. After Jimmy told him the current situation, he was immediately confused. He originally asked a lawyer to be present before answering questions, but he knew that the two people he helped send away were When you are an FBI agent, some things should be spoken out. Gang members do have strong bones, but there are not many such people, and he is not one of them.

First he resisted, and then he made a small deal with Jimmy and the others without a lawyer. After that, Bob told everything he knew.

Bob is a craftsman. In the past, he mainly engaged in petty theft. Naturally, he is not a big shot in the gang, but his skills are quite useful to some extent, so some people in the Tucker family's gang know him. He is also a well-known figure among the lower-level people.

This time he was entrusted by someone to help buy a car and send people out of DC. Of course, the related expenses must be quite a lot.

Bob quickly locked a pickup truck and came to the gas station at the designated time. Soon a truck came to his car. He contacted the person who had reserved the truck before and helped them pick up the truck license plate. , and put the two tied people into the bed of a pickup truck. Then he drove them away and took the remaining reward back home. Before he could go out to enjoy himself, he was caught by the gang members.

As for the people he sent away, they just left Washington DC for Maryland, but where exactly they were going is unclear because he was kicked off the bus after leaving Washington DC.

However, although he did not know their specific names, he could provide the mobile phone number used by the other party. After all, you still needed to call him to contact him for transportation, and the middleman was also a gangster in Washington DC who knew him.

Coming out of the interrogation room, Jimmy and Hope looked at each other, and Jimmy said: "Half that guy's informant fee, FxxK, seriously affects our judgment."

Hope shrugged. The money that had been given out was reported to Peter. It could not be halved so easily.

After finding Peter, Jimmy asked Hope to show Peter the interrogation notes, asked the technician to locate the mobile phone number provided by Bob, and went to the bathroom first.

After returning from the bathroom, Peter and the others had already returned to the command center. Although it was late at night, there were still two technicians on duty.

The technicians entered the mobile phone number they obtained during the interrogation into the system and quickly found some information.

The mobile phone numbers are prepaid and not real-name, and have been turned off. It is difficult to locate them now, but because the time is so close, technicians still have a way to retrieve the mobile phone information from the information database of the base stations along the way, so that A mobile line can be formed, but it will take some time and support from the NSA.

NSA support Peter can do it, but he has to wait until daytime, because some procedures need to be completed. At the headquarters, the assistant agent director is not a big shot, and of course it is not as easy as the branch.

In addition to cell phone number locating, they still have things to do. Jimmy and the others have been tired for a day and can take a rest. Peter will stay up for a while. During the day, he will arrange for people to arrest the middleman gangster and search Bob's home.

There is no need for Jimmy to get involved in these messy things. They need to rest more. They will need to continue to go out in the field when there are clues later. Peter is now a manager. Of course, he must arrange the chips in his hands reasonably to search and arrest these people. There are many people who can do this kind of thing, but there are not many people like Jimmy who can figure out the clues within two or three days of coming to DC.

Hope is a good person, and he seems to be quite meticulous in his work. I believe that after this case is over, he should have a future. Peter not only asked Jimmy to help him handle the case this time, but also allowed himself to make a little difference here at the headquarters. Sound, maybe the opportunity to take the next step has begun now.

The next day, it was almost noon when Jimmy returned to the headquarters. After Peter arranged the search and arrest plan, he fell asleep half-lying on a chair in his office. Jimmy took a look and went to the conference room next to him.

In the afternoon, Hope also came back, Peter was awake, and the previously arranged arrest was successfully completed.

The middleman didn't stand up to the interrogation. Due to the missing agent case in the past two days, too many people had seen Peter's actions, and everyone involved was very angry. This little gangster had never experienced being caught by the FBI. Compared with the police, the FBI's arrest experience was undoubtedly more terrifying, so after continuous interrogation, he still provided some clues.

In the conference room, Peter and Jimmy are all there. The investigation results of the mobile phone numbers provided by the interrogators and technicians are all concentrated here. Now we need to arrange follow-up tasks.

The technicians have calculated the mobile phone number base station information. According to the base station positioning, the mobile phone number moved north from the south of Washington DC. After leaving Washington DC, it began to move in the direction of Baltimore. Then the mobile phone number signal disappeared in the suburbs. It should be them. The mobile phone has been destroyed, but the direction of their travel and the time they stayed in each place are already known. The next step is to follow up and investigate.

The result of the interrogation of the gangster was relatively simple. He didn't know the names of the two people. They were both brothers on the road, and the matter was not complicated. He didn't think too much about it. A trivial matter like stealing a car was not worth it. It's a waste of brain cells because it's so commonplace.

But he can be sure that those two people are members of the Jenkins team. The Jenkins team is what the underworld calls the Abraham gang in the FBI's files.

This is a criminal group headed by Abraham Jenkins. They operate gambling, smuggling and illegal gun trading businesses, and have clear records that they have planned and implemented organized robberies. There is a cash truck robbery recorded in the file. The case and a bank robbery are highly suspected to be the work of the Abraham gang.

Abraham Jenkins is an intellectual gangster who was once imprisoned for a bank robbery. However, because he did not hurt anyone and was holding a toy gun with BB bullets in his hand, but the appearance he modified was no different from the real gun, he succeeded. Intimidated the security guards and staff present. After being caught by the police, he spent some money to successfully commute his sentence, and was quickly released from prison on parole. After that, he began to form his own team to carry out planned robberies, which is why he was called Jenkins by the underworld. Due to the reasons of the team, their personnel and scope of influence are getting larger and larger, forming a well-known gang organization, which is also called the Abraham Gang by the FBI.

After informing everyone about the relevant information in the conference room, Peter and Jimmy now have a headache. Something is wrong. The two missing detectives were investigating the case of the girl being kidnapped, imprisoned and tortured. Why did they do this with the Jenkins team? Are you involved in a gang? The content of their crime has nothing to do with kidnapping girls.

Peter frowned. He waved other irrelevant people to leave, leaving only a few agents and Jimmy. After Peter closed the door of the conference room, he arranged for an agent to take people to search the homes of the two missing agents. , saying that it was to find clues to their disappearance and not let go of any possibility. The key point was to check whether they had received illegal money. The money was definitely not deposited in the bank, so it was possible that it was deposited at home.

After arranging the task, he revealed some of his suspicions. The Jenkins team was involved in gambling and smuggling. For a gang to grow to such a large scale in Washington DC, there must be someone above it. Could there be two agents? What if the missing case has nothing to do with the case they are investigating?

This possibility is still very high. If the two detectives are really involved in some gang business, then this matter may be in trouble.

Benjamin Walker is a computer expert and has just been transferred to the field, so he should be fine.

Alex Baker is a senior agent in DC and has many years of field experience. If something goes wrong, he will have a big problem, and he is not a senior manager. If he wants to be the boss behind the gang, he must If he's not qualified enough, then there should be someone bigger in the DC office working on this.

He turned against the gang, most likely because of certain things or disputes over the distribution of profits. He thought that his status as an FBI could make the people in the Jenkins team have some scruples, so when they met in the wild Maybe he didn't pay attention, but was directly attacked by people from Jenkins' team.

If we follow this inference, the two people who were arranged by the Jenkins team to meet with Alex Baker should have been prepared in advance. In other words, they had already planned to get rid of Alex Baker, so they made such an arrangement.

But they are all gangsters, so why would they want someone from the Tucker family to get a pickup truck? This is another confusing point.

Peter and Jimmy discussed various possibilities here, but they were still unable to completely connect the whole line, so they had to give up the discussion for the time being. Everyone split up and some people followed Peter's arrangement to deal with the two The detective's home was searched, and the other group began to trace their direction of action along the previous mobile phone number.

Jimmy and the others were of course the team to track down. The moving direction of the mobile phone number and the long stay time in various places given by the technical staff were all marked, which saved them a lot of time.

Bob, who sent them away, had already given the location and time when he got off the pickup truck. After comparing this trajectory, Jimmy and the others only needed to investigate the next section of the road.

Hope was still driving, and Jimmy was sitting in the passenger seat, holding two maps and comparing them: "After they left DC, they stayed in Lanham and Laurel for two hours each. What do you think they were doing?"

Hope: "Eating? In such a short time, they shouldn't have time to deal with Baker and Walker. The key is that Walker was shot. If surgery is required, it will take at least several hours."

Jimmy: "Well, so let's first go to where they stay and take a look at the surrounding environment. If it's a hotel or restaurant, they should be eating. If it's a hospital, clinic, or pet clinic, then they might be doing emergency surgery. , and did not directly treat him completely."

Hope: "Understood, I'll go around the route they left first."

Bob did not take them out of DC in a straight line, so in order to ensure that they would not miss information on the way, Hope and Jimmy walked again along the route that Bob and the others left. At the same time, because of the mobile phone positioning provided by the technical department Track information, this route is also more precise.

Here in Lanham, the phone stayed in two places, one for ten minutes and one for two hours. Jimmy and the others checked these two places. One was a gas station and there was a second-hand store next to it, but they didn't have one. Monitoring, because there was a lot of traffic at the gas station, they couldn't remember the black pickup truck, and Jimmy and the others couldn't do anything.

The second location is interesting. This is a cafe, but there is a small alley next to it. Going through the alley is the back entrance of an auto repair shop parking lot. Jimmy and the others looked through the back door of the parking lot and found a pickup truck with a partially exposed license plate that looked very similar to the car they were looking for. At least the license plate number revealed matched part of it. The back door was locked with a chain lock, so they entered directly through the front door. , requesting to inspect the cars in the parking lot behind them on behalf of the FBI.

Although this is not Washington DC, for people like the FBI, it is still no problem to suppress a few auto repair shop workers. They successfully reached an agreement with the manager and found the pickup truck behind. Although it had been briefly cleaned, There is still some blood left in the corners.

This car was ready to be towed away and dismantled, and now it suddenly became a means of transportation in a kidnapping case. The auto repair shop was also unlucky. Someone bought a car before and used it as a deduction. Under normal circumstances, only It needed to be dismantled, and the pickup truck would be nothing if it turned into a pile of spare parts and scrap metal. However, because they didn't dispose of it in time, Jimmy discovered it.

The manager of the auto repair shop was numb now. Faced with Hope's gun, he could only cooperate and find some information. Jimmy and the others succeeded in getting the car that the two Jenkins team members drove when they left, because that car The license plate of the car was recycled, and it was actually a temporary paper license plate, which is more difficult to find, but at least they have determined their goal and abandoned the original pickup truck. They must have done this with a plan. It's just that this plan has too many flaws.

Jimmy called Peter and informed him of the current investigation, and they continued to follow up.

Peter began to contact the FBI office in Baltimore, Maryland. Now it was a bit troublesome for them to rely on Jimmy alone, especially regarding the surveillance information needed to track down the situation. The headquarters was not as convenient as the local office. (End of chapter)
