North American Gunslinger Detective

The inspection of the underground warehouse where the kidnapped girl was imprisoned surprised the detectives. The traces here showed that there were definitely not just one or two bloodshed incidents. The specific number needs to be determined by testing the blood stains, but relying only on these inferences , within the time frame when this warehouse was opened, Hammer and his team definitely kidnapped a lot of girls. After all, there must be some people who did not resist for various reasons and were not injured.

In addition to the underground warehouse, ground inspections are also being carried out, especially the factory where the underground warehouse is located. The detectives judged that it would be impossible for just six or seven of them to handle so many cases. After all, kidnappings are not only carried out in one place. Moving around, if there weren't enough of them, there would be too much to do to pull off the kidnapping.

The FBI's Salt Lake City office has also mobilized two teams to begin analyzing girls who have disappeared in Utah in the past two years. It takes a lot of time to compile missing information from various police stations. After all, not every police station will honestly collect all case information. Entry system.

The underground warehouse of the factory was discovered, the kidnapped girl was rescued, and his teammates were betrayed. Hammer got these results soon after Jimmy appeared in front of him again. Of course, this also meant that there was a problem with his previous deal.

Hammer was heartbroken and said nothing more. He just said that he needed to inform his lawyer. Jimmy did not stop him. This was a legitimate request. In this interrogation room, such a request would definitely be met. But Jimmy knew that Hammer did not Chance escaped.

Such people who work as public defenders are usually trainee lawyers and novices. They may be familiar with various laws and regulations, but their adaptability is obviously insufficient. When they learned that the FBI had obtained new clues from another accomplice, they raided their hiding place. He was also a little confused after the girl was kidnapped in the warehouse. His client seemed to have little trust in lawyers. It was not easy to negotiate a deal with the FBI. He finally made some progress, but his client failed again.

The lawyer is also helpless. Hammer has too many clearly proven crimes. The best situation now is not to get entangled with the FBI and go directly to the federal prosecutor.

After synchronizing the current situation with Hammer, the lawyer contacted Jimmy and Hope. Jimmy had encountered too many of these processes and it was very boring, so he left them all to Hope.

This kind of person is just a waste of food when he lives, and there is no point in wasting time on him.

Public defenders are free for suspects. Every minute they waste on a suspect means less time for them to take on other cases. There is no need to worry about cases where there is very clear evidence. Lawyers The efficiency is very high, but this is all preliminary processing. The case has not been closed yet, so we have to endure it.

Hammer didn't say anything. The other two people didn't know much. The person responsible for contacting customers was Hammer. They were only responsible for contacting drivers who had nothing to do with them and for kidnapping. Relatively speaking, they couldn't tell the detectives much. , and they don’t know if they are Hammer’s only team members.

In fact, Hammer was responsible for the entire team during the event, including the funds and operations. In other words, Hammer was the leader of their team. With their identification, the possibility of Hammer trying to escape or have his sentence reduced was getting lower and lower. The lawyer became more and more desperate, and eventually the two seemed to have a breakdown in the interrogation room. Due to the lawyer's professional ethics, the lawyer did not give up the case directly, but he would not do much.

Hammer was transferred to the federal prison in Salt Lake City for temporary detention. The interrogation room in the FBI office was not a prison, so he could not be held for long.

Salt Lake City is not Jimmy's territory, but he is not completely helpless. After entering prison, Hammer can't even think about living a comfortable life.

After finding Jimmy's former student, Jimmy smoked and chatted with him downstairs. Who are the larger gangs and famous figures in the prison in Salt Lake City? This kind of information can be obtained by even ordinary detectives. Of course, the detective knew what Jimmy meant by the case Jimmy and the others were currently handling, and which prison Jimmy had arranged for Hammer to go to. He nodded with a smile and left the trash can.

Although he was only a junior agent, he had good intentions. He did not provide information to Jimmy, but Jimmy got the news two days later. Hammer was beaten up in prison. When they interrogated Hammer again, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. Even with a missing tooth, Hammer still made Jimmy and Hope happy for a while after leaving the interrogation room.

After being beaten twice in a row, Hammer finally knew what was going on. Someone was deliberately targeting him, and the place they were staying in was the prison cell for suspects awaiting trial. Those felons would definitely not appear here. Under such circumstances, he could be beaten twice, and even if someone said it was not arranged by people from the FBI, he would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.

But he has no evidence, and there is no way to report a complaint. He has only two options at present. One is to fight hard. As for what he will encounter in the next few days, it is completely uncertain. The other is to close the case as soon as possible and leave here. , and he will be assigned to another federal prison pending subsequent court proceedings.

Hammer and the others were engaged in kidnapping, which was completely different from gangster thugs. Even if his crime was worse, he still couldn't resist the fists thrown at him. In the end, Hammer was beaten for the fourth time and was escorted directly to the hospital by the prison guards. After receiving treatment, he asked the prison guards for help in contacting the FBI.

Jimmy and Hope meet Hammer in the prison interrogation room, accompanied by his lawyer.

Hammer is in a very miserable state now. There is a bandage on his head and a bandage around his neck. There is also a stitched wound on his face and a large bruise. His nose looks a little crooked, but he is not wearing a brace to fix the nasal bones. , one arm was fixed by a sling hanging from the shoulder.

No matter how you look at it, this is not a simple fight. It seems that the gangster's action ability is very strong, and he completed the instructions perfectly, without causing any irreversible damage to Hammer, but it was painful enough that he could not bear to die.

"Wow, it looks like your life is very colorful. Even in prison, you have so many interactions with your companions. Do you need help? I can call you and file a complaint against your fellow inmates."

Jimmy sat across from Hammer as he spoke, "I think you called us to come over because you had something to say, right? Does your lawyer know?"

Hammer's lawyer had given up treatment. He turned to look at Hammer without saying a word.

Hammer nodded, "Yes, I've already said that, you can ask whatever you want." His cheeks twitched a little while he was talking, and it could be seen that the wound seemed to be affected when he spoke, how much A little pain.

After Jimmy confirmed with him that what he was about to confess and that his lawyer was aware of the risks involved, Hope took out a notepad and pen and began to record, while Jimmy began to ask Hammer about the whereabouts of the girl they had kidnapped before. There are some things that Hammer can't remember clearly. If you expect this kind of person to remember every victim and the whereabouts of the victims, you will definitely be disappointed. It's just that the whereabouts of the three people they sent out this month can be barely remembered. , that is to say, in their operations this month alone, at least five girls were kidnapped. This was just a case handled by Hammer's team in Boyce City.

Hope asked while taking notes. Jimmy sat next to him with his hands on his chest and just stared at Hammer. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he really wanted to do it himself.

When Hammer told the facts of their crime this time, there was no change in his expression such as remorse. It was just like telling an ordinary story. This kind of person has little humanity left, and it was all because he had no choice but to stop being beaten like this. If he told the facts of his crime, if the circumstances were different, he would definitely not tell any information about the victim in order to save himself a few years in prison.

The lawyer sat next to Hammer, with a very solemn expression on his face. Hammer didn't tell him so much when he told him before. This was also the first time he knew that in a month, Hammer and the others came from Arizona and Utah. They kidnapped more than five girls in several tourist spots and imprisoned them for a few days before contacting the buyer and then sent them there. It was only because Jimmy and the others tracked them to the bar and arrested them that the last girl contacted the buyer but did not come. Remember to send it off.

In addition to the girl Jimmy and the others found in the cabin in Karin City, three more girls have now been sent to the buyer, and their contact information is in an anonymous phone hidden by Hammer. The phone was in a hotel locker, in the same hotel where Hammer lived, but not in the room where he lived.

Hope recorded the approximate time and course of the kidnapping incident, and then collected the notepad after confirming that Hammer had nothing more to say.

Jimmy: "OK, I'm glad you can cooperate. I think we will be able to conclude the investigation of this series of cases soon. So, goodbye, Mr. Hammer."

Jimmy and Hope greeted Hammer with unhappy expressions, shook hands with the lawyer and left the interrogation room.

Hope: "Jimmy, what do we do next?"

Jimmy: "Contact Peter and dispatch two other detective teams from the headquarters to work with us to track down the three trafficked girls. The buyers must also be arrested or let them hear the call of the Lord."

Hope turned to look at Jimmy, who looked at the road ahead expressionlessly. Fortunately, it was not Jimmy who was driving. Otherwise, in his current state, they would probably have a car accident.

Hope could tell that Jimmy was in a bad mood. What made him feel bad was obviously Hammer and the criminal facts that Hammer had confessed. He had been working with Jimmy for a while, and he also used the information from the headquarters to check Jimmy's past. , Jimmy's usual approach to these evil criminals is to send them to the side of the Lord. This strong sense of simple justice can be seen in many people, but not many people can do it.

Hammer is a standard scumbag. He has no remorse for the fact that he committed a crime. In any case, he should have died under Jimmy's gun. However, he was only shot in both legs. Jimmy did not shoot during the chase. Cruel Hands, it’s not surprising that Jimmy feels so absent-minded now.

Hope parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car with his cell phone, and called Peter on the side of the road. After a while, he hung up the phone and came back, "Jimmy, bad news."

Jimmy turned to look at Hope: "What's wrong?"

Hope: "We need to get the Salt Lake City office involved, Peter means."

Jimmy: "Oh, in that case, so be it, let's go back and gather them."

On the way back to the Salt Lake City office, they notified the local agents of the meeting. However, instead of returning directly to the office, the two of them went to the hotel locker that Hammer mentioned. They needed to get Hammer's anonymous phone first. Come out, the information inside is still very important.

In the conference room, they synchronized all the clues they obtained from this interrogation with everyone, and then took out the mobile phone they got from the hotel and handed it over to the technical staff of the Salt Lake City office for inspection, and extracted more than a dozen After comparing the phone numbers with Hammer's testimony, we successfully identified the buyer who would receive the three girls. As for the other phone numbers, we will wait until we have time to work on them later. The most important thing now is to find those three people as soon as possible.

Next is a big project. They need to separate the three targets, track down the situations of the three targets, and find the three trafficked girls.

The three girls were sent to different positions. One went to New Mexico, one went to Ohio State, and the last one went to South Dakota. There were three completely separate lines. It was impossible for one team to complete them all. Investigation, so the Salt Lake City office was under great pressure this time. They were assigned to the two farther away ones, while the nearest New Mexico was pursued by Jimmy and Hope.

After arranging their respective divisions of labor, Jimmy pulled a senior detective from the Salt Lake City office out of the conference room and told him outside that his former trainee was in this office and had helped him a lot on this case. , I hope the other party can show him some face.

The agent didn't ask Jimmy for credit. Although he was just an ordinary agent, it was difficult to do it so cleanly. But no matter who he went to for help, and maybe he got a little favor, in short, Jimmy had to take responsibility for this matter. They are all FBI agents, so there is no way to provide cash as a thank you. It is always possible to make some contribution to his promotion. If this case can be mixed up, it will at least be helpful to his promotion to a senior agent later. After all, It's a big case.

Of course, the detective did not refuse. This kind of thing that requires arriving at the scene to find clues is irrelevant to the overall situation. In addition, after the various legends about Quantico instructors and Jimmy that have been circulating in the office recently, Jimmy was naturally given the opportunity. A face.

This time Jimmy gave a big gift to the Salt Lake City office. This kind of kidnapping case involving multiple victims is an absolutely vicious case. Once it's done, it's no problem to add something to his file. The key is that they don't need it. Too much to do, the main investigation Jimmy they've finished, so hello, me, well, everybody.
