The meeting did not end, and the inquiries from the main departments ended. Deputy Director Roberts did not directly announce the adjournment of the meeting, but began to ask Peter about the situation in other offices. This time the case involved the Washington office, the St. Louis office in Missouri, and the Salt Lake City, Utah office. office and the Albuquerque, New Mexico office, it's already quite a large operation, and there are a lot of things that have to be considered as a headquarters.

Peter has also been in contact with other offices in the past two days, and of course he has not tampered with their contribution to the investigation of the case. He still said a lot of good things for them at the meeting.

However, the St. Louis office was more unlucky this time, because Jimmy and his team had conducted more in-depth investigations in the early stage. They only cooperated in the on-site investigation and did not gain much. Relatively speaking, other offices were much better. At least they either arrested people or rescued people. If you win people, there will always be clear results.

Now that Deputy Director Roberts is asking questions in front of so many people, he will probably do something later. Whether they will reward or punish him depends entirely on the headquarter's wishes.

This case involves a relatively wide scope. For Deputy Director Roberts, who has rich experience, it is just the time to show his management ability, especially since this case is handled directly by the headquarters. Although he did not intervene at the beginning, it did not This affected him to take away a considerable part of the benefits from the final stage of the case, including arranging personnel from other departments to assist in the follow-up of the case, striving to finalize the case before Christmas.

Although the case investigation and arrests are very fast, the case process is not over until the federal prosecutor indicts and the court trial is completed. For federal prosecutors and federal courts, they have many cases in their hands. It's gone, it's not that easy to handle this case quickly. This is the time to show your leadership's personal charm.

Now that Deputy Director Roberts has taken the lead in the follow-up processing, of course Peter can only delegate power. He did not say much during the whole meeting, except for asking some questions above, and he was as honest as a transparent person.

The meeting didn't last long and ended quickly. Of course, it was already dinner time. Jimmy didn't want to go back to New York. He stayed at the headquarters for another two days to check the situation. At the end of the meeting, the Public Affairs Office Bian also specifically warned that these two days would be quite busy, and he hoped Jimmy could wait here.

Peter had already asked someone to book a hotel for him. He took Jimmy to a small welcome party in the evening and got to know several agents from the headquarters. Jimmy was successfully released. He returned to the hotel and talked on the phone with Nia for a while, and then I just took a shower and rested. Although there were no accidents in this kind of meeting attended by professional leaders, it was still very stressful.

Taking advantage of the time, Jimmy borrowed a car from the headquarters early in the day and went out. It was necessary to meet and chat with friends. After all, he was in Washington, DC, and there was nothing urgent to do, so he didn't want to go. When meeting other people, he can only go shopping and be in a daze. As for walking around Washington DC and traveling, he has no interest at all. He can't go to the places he wants to go, and the rest of the places don't attract him much. force.

Quantico Academy was not slow to receive the news. The headquarters has not yet decided. Jimmy’s former instructor colleagues have already called to congratulate him for once again contributing a typical case and hope that he will have time to go back and take a look. Look, teaching the students on the side is just a way to relax.

This group of bastards completely despise people. Those who can become full-time instructors are either people who have taken a back seat or are specialized personnel. Jimmy used to be strictly speaking, he wanted to avoid trouble. Really If he were asked to become an instructor now, he would rather resign directly. The money would be enough for him to spend anyway.

However, there are also advantages to Quantico Academy, that is, there is a lot of time to fish. For Jimmy, being a firearms instructor and case explanation actually does not require him to deal with many things. It can even be regarded as a vacation, but the days are too busy. , completely devoid of passion and ups and downs, which makes people like him a little uncomfortable.

After agreeing to go back to visit them at the academy, Jimmy just put it aside. Although Quantico is not far from Washington DC, it is not his top priority, and the case has not been sorted out yet. Waiting for everything When you are ready, just go over and take a look. Just like the hijacking case, tell them the details of the case that are not on paper.

John and the others from the USSS Secret Service happened to be in Washington, too. They were not on a business trip. They just met to chat and drink coffee. Mrs. Waltz was in trouble. Not only was the distance far away, but the key was that Jimmy rarely saw Valz. Mrs. Zi contacted me, and it felt a bit unexpected to suddenly ask for a visit.

But since he had time, he had to go and meet her. Jimmy called in advance to make sure that the old lady was at the cabin, and then he set off from Washington DC to her cabin. Of course, he also bought some gifts in DC, empty-handed. It's always bad to have a doorstep.

Mrs. Waltz is still the same. Because of her mobility difficulties, she basically won’t leave here. But this time when Jimmy came over, she didn’t see her grandson Sam. Instead, a middle-aged woman helped open the door. It should be It's a hired servant.

Mrs. Waltz was very happy to see Jimmy coming, at least she seemed very happy. On weekdays, basically no one came here, so it was still a bit deserted.

After chatting for a while, Mrs. Waltz also asked Jimmy why he came here. Jimmy had nothing to hide. After all, it was official business, and it would probably be made public. It was not classified, so he came to the FBI headquarters this time. I briefly talked about handling the case.

For a well-informed person like Mrs. Waltz, cases such as human trafficking are obviously not uncommon, but it is just that they are all underage girls, which still makes her very emotional. After all, what these people did is so bad. .

But the key to delaying Jimmy for so long this time is that several cases are related, from the missing agent case to the imprisonment of raped girls, to human trafficking and kidnapping, and then to the club that cooperated with the DEA to investigate drug dealers. It took two months to connect the matter. It took two months. Under normal circumstances, it would be possible to do it for more than half a year. If the scope involved was wider, the number of investigators would have to be expanded.

Speaking of the case involving a girl, Jimmy once again tasted the old man's nagging about giving birth to a child. Although it was a bit surprising, Mrs. Waltz didn't seem to be the kind of person who gossiped, but it was normal. After all, Mrs. Waltz was the most famous person except Tom. My mother is the closest person to me, and when I get older, I will always talk about these things, urging me to get married before getting married, and urging me to have children after getting married.

After chatting for a while, Jimmy received a phone call and had to say goodbye and leave Mrs. Waltz's cabin to return to Washington. The Public Affairs Office needs Jimmy to go back and shoot a video with Hope. Of course, it is a temporary script they prepared to connect some scenes of the case investigation through their narration. However, this will not be the final version, just for preliminary preparation.

Because most of the case content does not have live video, the Public Affairs Office will be particularly troublesome this time. They will process some content in advance, and then prepare more paper materials and videos, and then a professional team will select the content from the materials to form a As for the special report that can be made public, it has not yet been determined whether a follow-up documentary will be arranged. We need to wait for arrangements from the upper management.

According to the arrangement of Deputy Director Roberts, this case is a serious case, and it can successfully rescue the imprisoned girl and capture the human trafficking criminal. This is a typical case that demonstrates the FBI's cross-regional pursuit capabilities, and it is also quite significant. The positive image is completely different from the soy sauce FBI in movies and TV series, and naturally there are a lot of materials that need to be prepared.

The reason why it is included as an alternative is purely because there are too many casualties associated with the case. If it is not mentioned deliberately, it will be questioned by the media and other groups. If it is displayed, it will not be a good image of the FBI agent's personal image. After all, the public The government does not want the emergence of federal agents who can legally kill countless people. To many people, this is a threat.

After reading Jimmy's file, Deputy Director Roberts knew that Jimmy's record must not be publicized. It is extremely rare for this kind of record to appear in one person. Being questioned is only one aspect. The biggest problem is that it may arouse the public's suspicion of FBI agents. I don't trust him. No one knows how many kill records the FBI has hidden, whether he will be unsafe when facing such a hidden agent, etc.

In short, although it is still an alternative publicity case, they still need to complete the information as much as possible. Once the decision is made by the superiors, they must be able to produce it.

For Jimmy, this was the first time to act according to a script, so he felt a little uncomfortable. But fortunately, it was not a formal content, so even if there were some flaws, it didn't matter. It only took four recordings and it was over.

What surprised him was that during the last recording, they actually used a separate backlight source. After Jimmy finished speaking according to the lines, he took a look at the recording effect. His outline was very clear, but the front was basically hidden in the darkness. He couldn't see it at all. There are no details on the face. This should be to prevent his identity from being directly exposed, right? That's what he thought, but he wasn't familiar with the people in the Public Affairs Office and was too embarrassed to ask them directly, so he ended the recording.

This recording is not the only one, but Jimmy was notified by them that he can return to New York first and come back later when necessary. He may even need to return to the scene of the case to make up some content in the future. These tedious and complicated details I don't know how they arranged it. It always felt like they were making a movie. They prepared the script, determined the recording location and content, and then he acted according to the set content just like the actors.

Jimmy and Peter said hello and bought a plane ticket to return to New York. Next was his vacation. The vacation approved by Ruiz had already been on a business trip for two months. It would be too unkind to go to work right after he came back. Even if Jimmy has had enough vacations this year.

He had already taken a long leave because of his marriage and honeymoon, and now it was almost the end of the year. It was great that he could still get paid leave. Jimmy simply chatted with Nia and asked her to adjust her leave. Heading directly to the warm south to enjoy the sun and beaches.

While Jimmy was having fun, Ruiz and the others were not idle either. Jimmy had already shown up at the headquarters, and he showed off his personal style strongly. The news from the headquarters is not a secret at all to the New York office, and there are many channels to get it. In order to ensure that the strong benchmark in the Manhattan office could stay here, Ruiz also contacted many people to communicate and quickly came to a conclusion.

Jimmy is very good. To prevent the headquarters from forcibly pulling people in, they must be stuck in the Manhattan office. The first is the level. Senior detectives are always only small roles. Although Jimmy manages the homicide investigation team, in fact it is not that It's true, it's easy for someone to find fault.

Jimmy has made a great contribution this time. He was able to bring Shi Qi's body back from Juarez. This is enough to make many people like him. Coupled with the case at the headquarters, it is an exceptional improvement. Although it is not Perfect, but reasonable.

But after being promoted to supervisory agent, there was a big trouble. Some things had to be exchanged. The homicide investigation team Jimmy was currently managing needed to be taken out of his hands and handed over to others to manage. After all, it was the team leader's. There are too few positions, and many people who have reached the level have no real power. It is impossible for Jimmy to get all the benefits, and he must give out some of them.

It would be better to give Jimmy a temporary position for two or three years. It would be better to transfer him to another department when Jimmy is old enough and has enough experience. He is only in his early thirties and is an innocent young man in the FBI system. He was promoted in just six or seven years. For many people, this speed is no longer like taking off on a plane, but soaring on a rocket.

Of course, Jimmy's rise is not the fastest. There are still quite a few people in the FBI who rise very quickly, but it is indeed very rare for a Chinese.

Jimmy didn't know the specific exchange of interests here, but when everything settled, Ruiz called Jimmy and asked him to continue to rest at home and come back to work after the Christmas holiday. There was a new position arrangement. give him.

Jimmy was still a little confused when he received the call. He had been in the homicide unit for several years, why was he suddenly transferred and reassigned?

Nia was eating ice cream and saw that Jimmy didn't speak after he answered the phone. She just stared at the street in front of her in a daze, and patted him gently: "What's wrong?"

Jimmy turned to look at Nia with a bad expression: "Something seems to have happened in the bureau. Ruiz informed me that I will go back to work after Christmas, and a new position has been arranged for me. No, there must be something wrong here. You first Wait for me here while I go make some phone calls." (End of Chapter)
