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

Chapter 584 Unexpected kidnapping

"Mr. Director, there are rumors that the police officer who made the arrest was your son Danny Regan, and that he had exchanged fire with the suspect before and was also a witness in this case. Can you confirm it?"

A black reporter from Channel 14 asked a barrage of questions, which made Frank Regan, who was wearing sunglasses, frown.

"No." He replied in one word concisely.

"That evil gang is good at intimidating witnesses and even silencing them. Are you worried about that?" another reporter asked.

"No." Still the same word.

Frank Regan didn't go on a long spiel about the NYPD being unafraid of threats. He had already sacrificed a son for this city, and it was impossible to say he wasn't worried at all.

But the reality is that, as the protector of this city, he cannot tolerate any weakness.

"When will the formal prosecution be filed?" Someone in the audience continued to ask questions.

This question really stumped Director Reagan. It was the prosecutor's job to prosecute and had nothing to do with the NYPD.

"Leave the following questions to me." Lyle Greene, standing next to him, bowed slightly.

Frank Regan raised his eyebrows and said nothing. He just stood aside and gave up the small podium to the other party.

"I'm Special Prosecutor Lyle Greene."

One of the paths for a prosecutor to rise is to enter politics. There is no prosecutor who does not like to be exposed in front of the public. Dealing with media reporters is their basic skill. It can be heard that this Mr. Prosecutor is very good at this.

"First of all, I want to thank the New York Police Department for their outstanding performance in the arrest of Raymundo Salazar. As for the prosecution, we very much look forward to the testimony of Officer Danny Regan to the grand jury this Wednesday afternoon. , the latter’s vote”

Is there something wrong with this guy's brain? Jack looked at Eileen next to him in surprise. Frank Regan's two NO's were all in vain. This guy sold Danny directly as soon as he came on stage.

What the hell is the difference between this and the behavior of Siris Media that directly broadcast the images of anti-narcotics police without coding?

Whether it is public speculation or rumors, it is all unofficial behavior. Now that this guy said this in front of many media, it is equivalent to directly giving official certification.

"That's it for today, thank you all." Sure enough, Frank Regan's beard was so angry that he stood up. He stepped forward unceremoniously and directly interrupted what Lyle Greene was saying, ending the brief conversation. press conference.

This special prosecutor is a bit hypocritical. Before, he kept solemnly reminding Danny to be wary of Raimundo Salazar, but now he turned around and betrayed him. He can only be said to be a politician reserve.

In contrast, Assistant Prosecutor Erin Regan had a much better impression on Jack. In the previous case of the copper smelting criminal, the reason why she had a conflict with Danny was because she was worried that the criminal could not be brought to justice. From a legal perspective.

Everyone walked out of this temporarily arranged press conference. Frank Regan adjusted the sunglasses on his face, looked straight ahead, and calmly faced Lyle Green, who looked a little ugly because he was forcibly interrupted. Ni said,

"Your sensational speech completely exposed the identity of the witness, which is very unprofessional."

"I'm sorry about this." Lyle Greene stopped and apologized, but his expression was a bit disapproving, and his tone was a bit less respectful.

"I understand your sensitivity on this matter. After all, Danny is your son."

Frank Regan also stopped and turned to look at him with a steady face, "This has nothing to do with Danny's identity. No matter which of my police officers they are, I will be particularly sensitive when they are in danger." .”

Lyle Greene's face changed slightly. Frank Regan was still the chief of a police department in charge of tens of thousands of policemen. In the Middle Ages of Europe, a feudal lord with tens of thousands of armed forces could not even be called a king. point.

When the aura of such a superior person pressed forward, this guy's breathing couldn't help but stagnate. He swallowed subconsciously, lowered his posture a lot, and defended himself in a low voice,

"But the reporter just said it."

"Yes, but I have not confirmed it. I have reason to believe that the information was not leaked from our people, but from your side." Frank Regan pointed at him with a finger and said nothing. Say more, turn around and leave.

When Erin, who was following her father, passed by Lyle Greene, she glanced at him with the same expression.

Jack saw this small conflict in his eyes and returned to Danny's office thoughtfully. He saw that he was sitting face to face with his female partner Jackie, and their desks were filled with various documents.

"What are you still busy with?" The case ended successfully, and Jack was in a good mood. He was already thinking about whether to go back to Los Angeles this weekend while Hannah was away. It had been a long time since he asked his dear Professor Maureen for homework. .

In a few months, he will officially study for a master's degree under Maureen's name. It is very important to have a good teacher-student relationship.

<divclass="contentadv">"As for organizing documents, even if I appear in court to testify, these evidence materials, including forensic reports, ballistic trace examination and other documents must be fully prepared."

Danny yawned, looking like he was doing his job dutifully.

"Look at this. Do you still remember that Sylvia mentioned that Raimundo Salazar has a capable man named Lupino?"

He pulled out a file, "My full name is George Lupino. He has a lot of criminal records, but guess what the result was? All the witnesses recanted their confessions."

"Wow, this is really surprising." Jackie was also infected by this guy's yawns and yawned several times. She got up and poured herself a cup of coffee, then waved her hand to chase him away.

"Leave these to me. You two big boys can find a smoking room to do bad things. Just be careful not to set the police station on fire."

"Dear Jackie, I really don't know how to live without you." Danny opened a drawer at the bottom of his desk and rummaged around inside for a long time. He took out an oak cigar box and held it to her like a treasure. Jack shook.

"Stolen from the old man."

After enjoying a high-end Cuban cigar with Danny, Jack looked out the window at the dark night and was about to get up to leave, "Are you sure you won't leave the police station tonight?"

Danny waved his hand, "You go back and rest, I'll order a pizza and we'll make it in the lounge tonight."

Before he could finish what he said, his phone suddenly rang, "Danny Regan, what do you mean?"

Jack stopped preparing to go out and turned to look at him.

Danny raised his hand and looked at the time on his watch, with a confused expression on his face, and continued, "No, no, don't bother, I'll call her. Yes, yes, I just finished my work, so I'll go pick her up directly, thank you. .”

Seeing him hang up the phone, Jack quickly asked, "What happened?"

Danny frowned, "The police officer who went to pick up Linda said she wasn't at home, so there should be no problem. I'll try calling her cell phone."

Jack's heart suddenly thumped, and he thought that he must not cause trouble at this time.

But the next moment, Danny dialed Linda's cell phone, and before the two of them could breathe a sigh of relief, a man's greasy voice came over the phone.

"Hello, Mr. Detective."

"Who are you?" Danny's face changed slightly, but he still held a trace of luck in his heart.

"I'm your nightmare."

"Get Linda on the phone!" Danny tried to lower his voice.

"She can't take the call now until you decide you won't testify against Salazar at a grand jury hearing."

The call over there was still going on. At the same time, Jack, who sensed something was wrong, had already called Jubal, "Help me track the number below. I need to know the current location of this phone immediately. It's urgent."

Then he patted Danny on the shoulder and said silently, "Delay for time."

"Let my wife answer the phone, I need to know her current situation." Danny's eyes were slightly red and his breathing became slightly heavier.

"Don't try to play any tricks. My friend, your wife is quite beautiful. You'd better do as I say, otherwise you will only see a beautiful corpse again. Also, don't try to find her. We Know all your moves."

As the phone was hung up, Danny covered his mouth in pain. He had nowhere to vent his anger, and he couldn't even scream because he didn't dare to let anyone know about it.

"Go directly to your father's house, make sure the two children are safe, follow me, and don't let anyone see anything strange." After Jack said this, he took Danny and walked out of the smoking room.
