The world of American TV series: Starting with the L.A. Patrol.

As if she noticed Jack's nervousness, Grandma Heidi waved her hand at him, "Young man, don't be so nervous. I've already talked to David Rossi. Since the FBI is unwilling to release him, what do you think of the title of NCIS Special Advisor?"

Jack was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously wanted to say something humble, but then he realized that he was now working in the American workplace, and at times like this, all he had to do was smile, nod, and say "I'm honored."

In fact, as an FBI agent, holding a consultant title in the military's internal investigation department is a bit abrupt, but it is not very rare.

Since the Hoover era, the FBI has positioned itself correctly, turning itself into a handy tool for various forces to restrict the power of the president, but privately it has been colluding with the military in an unclear manner.

From this point alone, we can see that Edgar Hoover, who served as director for nearly half a century, served under eight presidents, and created the FBI myth, was at least familiar with imperial studies.

Even though the FBI today is no longer as powerful as it used to be and has completely become a tool of party struggles, it still retains many "fine" traditions, including maintaining a good relationship with the military.

In theory, the FBI has jurisdiction over all criminal cases within the federal government, but when it comes to domestic criminal activities by the military, it usually directly hands over the case-handling authority to the military's internal investigation department.

For example, the Navy's NCIS, or the Army's ACIC (Army Criminal Investigation Command).

In theory, the FBI also has jurisdiction over corruption cases within the military, but in practice most of these cases are handled by the IGO Office of the Inspector General.

In addition, the FBI has always maintained close cooperation with the military in domestic counterterrorism, counterintelligence, and special forces training.

It is not an isolated case that Jack was able to participate in the training of "DEVGRU" and go to Mexico with Team B to eliminate drug lords. The FBI's SRT (Hostage Rescue Team) has been operating overseas in the name of counter-terrorism and in collaboration with "DEVGRU" and "Delta" for many years.

"Of course, this consulting job doesn't have a fixed salary. The hourly wage is only $50, which will only be calculated when there is a task. There won't be any formal ceremony. I hope you don't mind."

Grandma Heidi showed a mischievous smile on her wrinkled little face and handed Jack a certificate that she had prepared long ago.

Of course Jack wouldn't care about this little money. With this little notebook in hand, at least it meant that he wouldn't have to spend favors on others if he wanted to get a military plane or something in the future.

The old American navy is a serious first-class person. Although he is a little old now, if he has the chance, he still wants to take a stroll on those active aircraft carriers.

"It's my honor to serve my country." Jack said these nice words without paying any money, but in his heart he was already trying to recall the "NCIS" plots he had watched before.

It's a pity that I don't remember many cases, but I was very impressed by several main characters, including Abby with a strong personality, Tony who never grows up, Jiva who came from Mossad, and of course Gibbs with silver hair.

"Welcome to be one of us." Although they had not known each other for long, Karen and Hannah had a good impression of Jack and took the initiative to extend their hands and shake his hand to show their welcome.

After pacing back and forth in front of the desk for a few times, the expression on Grandma Heidi's face became serious again.

"OK, gentlemen, let's focus on the present. The situation is already urgent. You should know what will happen if the media finds out about this, right?"

"That would be a complete mess," Hannah answered without hesitation.

"The whole city will fall into a hellish state of disorder in an instant." Grandma Heidi nodded.

"All kinds of rumors will spread across the Internet, citizens will lose their minds, fear will spread, people will flee the city in panic, traffic jams, riots, looting."

Karen paused here. "Basically, it's New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina."

But at this moment, Jack sang a different tune, "Excuse me, given the current situation, it seems unnecessary to be too pessimistic. I believe that LAPD has made sufficient plans in this regard."

He then talked about the hemorrhagic fever virus attack he encountered when he was an ordinary LAPD police officer.

Finally, he concluded, "After analyzing the video footage of Jarod Broadman's experiment, the CDC concluded that although his 'improved' smallpox virus prolonged the incubation period and delayed the herpes stage, the transmission method of the virus itself did not change.

Compared to other terrible viruses that can be transmitted through the air, smallpox is not very viable in the air, so the means of releasing this virus are relatively limited.

Even if the situation really deteriorates to the worst possible scenario, the LAPD can issue a warning to the public in the name of a bomb attack, which should have a certain effect. "

After thinking it over carefully, Grandma Heidi couldn't help but nodded slightly. "If something unfortunate really happens, this is indeed a good way, but before that, I grant you full authority to use all means to prevent possible tragedies."

At this time, Kensi Bly walked over in a hurry. "There is news from the investigation of the taxi company. A person who matches Broadman's facial features got on a taxi at the airport and got off at the Ocean View Hotel in Venice Beach."

"Very good." Grandma Heidi took out an aluminum box from the drawer of her desk and walked to the office area not far away. "But before you continue investigating the case,

Agents Deeks, Williams (Danny), and Kelly (Sheng Hao) need to be vaccinated against smallpox."

Of the three people named, the faces of Fluffy Maddy Dix and Danny became visibly nervous.

Deeks even stuttered, "Why only vaccinate us, what about the others?"

"Because we are all formal soldiers and need to get vaccinations regularly." Hannah returned to her seat and watched the show with a forced smile.

"Can't you take pills?" Dix watched Grandma Heidi take out a syringe from the aluminum box, a scary double-ended needle, and swallowed subconsciously.

"Or a patch or something?" Danny was also trying hard to hide his nervousness. Apparently Deeks wasn't the only one who was afraid of injections.

"To be honest, I don't really like injections." Deeks was most afraid of needles, and even his voice began to tremble unconsciously.

"Wait, why doesn't Agent Tawalla need it?" He seemed to grasp at straws.

"I was vaccinated during my training at 'DEVGRU'." Jack grinned at him, and then he thought of an obvious question: Grandma Heidi must have seen all of his files that were said to be highly confidential.
