The world of American TV series: Starting with the L.A. Patrol.
Chapter 1176 Pride and Prejudice
"Let me explain why you're here. My colleagues and I just experienced a gunfight in the city center and were immediately called here. You should understand this, Mr. Barrett.
When a person is in a terrible mood, it is impossible to be reasonable. "
Jack was a little annoyed with this lawyer, and he also disliked Attorney General Jackson. It was he who asked him to keep a low profile before, and now that the case has been exposed, he is throwing himself out to take the blame.
Although he could understand the prosecutor's difficulties and knew that he did not really want to help those "big shots" but had other plans, this did not mean that Jack would completely follow the prosecutor's baton.
Seeing Jack's impatience, the lawyer seemed a little uneasy. The current situation was that his side needed help from others, but this little FBI agent showed such a carefree attitude, as if he didn't understand the power behind his previous words.
"I'm very sorry."
As a partner of a large law firm, Larry Barrett knew the principle of being able to bend and stretch. He pulled at the collar of his shirt, which was a little uncomfortable, and then he realized that he was in such a hurry when he went out that he didn't even wear a tie.
"But the media who smell blood could show up at any time. If the shooting that just happened hadn't attracted their attention, the area outside would have been surrounded by interview cars by now.
I have only one small request, that is, can we handle this case carefully and quietly? "
"I don't know how you lawyers define the words discreet and low-key, but a crime scene like this..."
Jack raised his hand and pointed at the body in the elevator, "You're not going to ask me to lie for you and say this was also suicide, are you?"
"Of course there's no need to lie." As if sensing that Jack's tone had loosened a little, Larry Barrett quickly handed over his business card.
"Just refrain from making any comments to the media for now, as you normally would."
Jack didn't reach out to take the business card, but raised his hand to check the time. It was already 3 o'clock in the morning.
He gestured to Jiejie to introduce her, and asked her for a business card to pass to the lawyer, "This is Agent Jennifer Jeanre, she is responsible for all external communications for our team.
We've been busy all night and are in desperate need of rest as we have to attend the mayor's press conference tomorrow morning regarding the shooting at the previous parade.
Please contact Agent Jeanner tomorrow morning after 10:00 AM and provide all the information about Joseph Fielding and the two previous victims, including secret bank accounts, tax records, private emails, etc., according to the list she gave. "
Seeing the lawyer open his mouth as if to say something, Jack didn't let him finish his bargaining.
“I know that your lawyers communicate closely with each other, so please don’t make excuses like you don’t know the identities of the first two deceased persons, otherwise my promise will be invalidated immediately.
Mr. Barrett, I hope you realize that unless we work together to find the murderer, similar troubles will only increase until they explode like a time bomb. "
The barrister's face darkened to the color of a pot bottom. He gritted his teeth and nodded slightly. "What you said makes sense. We will fully cooperate."
-
"Wow, if every time we deal with lawyers we can be like what we just did, I think I will completely fall in love with this job." Aubrey took big bites of his burger and sighed vaguely.
"I thought you had already fallen in love with the career of federal agent." Although Jiejie was teasing Aubrey, it could be seen from her expression that she was very happy with what Jack had done just now.
As the liaison officer of the team, Jiejie dealt with the most media reporters and lawyers, and naturally saw their expressions the most. This time, Jack really helped her vent her anger.
"I bet that lawyer never thought that we never wanted to make this case public." Aubrey proudly took a big gulp of carbonated drink and then swallowed the food in his mouth.
Jack smiled and nodded. "Because that is what the murderer wants us to do. So when Jubal and his men arrive tomorrow, we will continue the investigation behind closed doors. Only by doing the opposite will the murderer reveal more flaws."
But Jie Jie's face was a little hesitant. She reached out and picked up a French fry from Jack's plate and chewed it carefully. "But if that happens, won't it cause more victims?"
The two men sitting opposite her rolled their eyes. Aubrey looked even more disdainful. "Although paying for sex with a girl is not a capital crime, $2 a night, it's hard for me to have much sympathy for such a rich man."
Looking at these two guys in front of her who had no sense of being rich, Jiejie could only shake her head to express her speechlessness.
-
Today, Jack is no longer as resistant as before to exposing his identity to the media to a limited extent.
After all, compared to the low probability of being targeted by a psychopathic killer who came for your reputation, being regarded as an elite and sent out as an undercover agent by your superiors is obviously more troublesome.
In the Alcatraz case, he could clearly feel that his teacher Rossi and the current FBI director were not on the same page.
Afterwards, he secretly let old Mason go. Although Chief Womack could not get any definite evidence, he would probably make a note of it in his notebook.

So at the press conference early the next morning, Jack, Jie Jie and Aubrey stood next to the fat Chief David Brown wearing sunglasses and accepted the mayor's thanks to the three FBI agents for their timely assistance in the shooting last night.
"I thought the media would be more concerned about the number of casualties or the deliberate targeting of police officers, but all the questions were about the police using robots to detonate bombs."
After the press conference, the three returned to the temporary office. Aubrey held his mobile phone with an expression like an "old man on the subway".
"They only care about eye-catching information. I even saw a so-called expert give a long speech on whether robots will rebel." Jie Jie smiled and poured coffee for them.
"To put it bluntly, that bomb disposal robot is just a large remote-controlled machine and has nothing to do with artificial intelligence," Aubrey complained.
Jack sent a message to Jubal who was still on the plane while teasing him, "It's a pity that Director David Brown didn't tell the media that it was your idea to use the remote-controlled robot, otherwise you might be able to go down in history.
Some media believe that this is the first time in federal history that the police have used lethal force provided by robots to eliminate suspects. Oh, they even mentioned the movie "RoboCop".
