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

Everyone was shocked and rushed out of the office and came to the operations center. They saw a real-time picture of a certain subway platform appearing on the big screen. A guy in a hoodie was looking down in the direction of the surveillance. Occasionally he looked up quickly. Take a look around.

"Where is the location?" Jubal was asking the technician loudly. At the same time, an NYPD liaison officer had picked up the phone and started to contact the NYPD dispatch center directly.

"There is a suspicious person at the subway station between 59th Street and Lexington Street, and we need officers to go to the scene."

"God, he has a gun!" Garcia screamed, and everyone in the combat center stopped what they were doing and looked up at the big screen.

I saw the hoodie looking left and right for a while, then suddenly took out a dark object from his pocket and pointed it towards a woman waiting for the bus who was facing away from him on the platform.

There was no sound in the surveillance screen, and no one could hear the gunfire, but Garcia couldn't help but cover his eyes, unable to bear to see this scene. A murder was staged in front of everyone, but everyone present was powerless.

Danny rushed to his liaison officer and shouted angrily into the phone, "Damn it, where is the nearest police officer?"

"He's going to run away." Garcia wailed with tears in her eyes. Jiejie beside her stretched out her arms and hugged her, her eyes were also red.

"Switch the surveillance camera and track his whereabouts." Jubal stared at the figure leaving the platform with a livid face, and the anger in his eyes almost turned into reality.

The picture on the big screen began to switch continuously until the murderer wearing a hoodie appeared on the screen again. A technician said loudly, "He ran to the west of 59th Street. There is a park in front of him, which is a blind spot for surveillance."

No one blames the NYPD. Frank has sent all the detectives on vacation to the streets. It is still impossible to completely cover all neighborhoods and subway stations.

In fact, he didn't need to say anything. Everyone was watching the big screen, watching helplessly as the guy in the hoodie disappeared from the end of the screen. From the beginning to the end, not a single figure wearing a patrol uniform appeared on the screen.

The most outrageous thing is the speed cameras installed at intersections. There are not many speed cameras on the streets of New York. Most of them are installed on the roads around schools. According to state law, these speed cameras are required to operate from 10 o'clock to the second every night. It is closed between 6 o'clock every day.

Danny put down the phone and slammed his fist on the table. "The nearest police officer is a block away. It will take at least 2 minutes to arrive."

This world is even more outrageous. Although Frank Regan pushed hard after becoming the director, due to funding and obstruction by certain politicians, the NYPD has only installed less than 8000 cameras across the city of New York.

As for the amount of surveillance on the streets, due to privacy issues, he had never heard of a surveillance system similar to the domestic "Skynet" or "Sky Eye" in the United States before he traveled.

And the more they are located in areas with poor security, the more likely these surveillance cameras are to be damaged, and the number of cameras that need maintenance every year accounts for one-third of the total.

Jack clenched his back molars, and his expression was equally ugly. In his previous life, due to privacy rights and resistance from various aspects, the NYPD did not officially equip every patrol officer with a law enforcement recorder with a camera until 2015.

(I’m not making this up, New York City didn’t take control of these traffic cameras back from the state Legislature until 2022.)

"We've lost track of the suspect," a technician whispered.

Dana Moger, who didn't know when she would appear in the operations center, walked up to Rossi and whispered, "Nearly 300 FBI agents will arrive in New York tonight. This situation cannot continue."

"We will also go to the streets to help tomorrow!"

"I'll go as well."

Emily was the first to come forward, and newcomer Luke Elwes was an activist himself, and he couldn't sit still for a long time.

"Wear all body armor to identify ourselves, at least in groups of two. I have a feeling that those guys are not necessarily coming for the BAU, but they are probably coming for the FBI." Jack did not object, but just reminded one sentence

The murderer changed the frequency of attacks from once every two or three days to once a day after the FBI announced its official involvement. Jack couldn't figure out why the other party did this.

What is the purpose of triggering the FBI and NYPD to take to the streets on a large scale? If the other party really wanted to use this to attack FBI agents or police officers, they would just drive a truck full of fertilizer and crash into the Hoover Building. It's not like no one has done something similar like this before.

"In this case, the murderer may change the location of the crime to other places, such as libraries, parks, community centers or even schools." Joyner said with some worry.

"That's better than doing nothing. Forcing the other person to leave the streets and subway stations, and changing his habits may reveal some of his weaknesses."

Hotchner actually had half a sentence left. Today's scene had a huge impact on everyone's morale. A group of people watched the murderer kill but were unable to do anything. Even he, who has always been calm, wanted to bite his teeth. broken.

Although the BAU team is here to carry out profiling work, now instead of letting everyone sit in the office and tear up the manuscript paper, it is better to send them all out on the street, at least not to let the other party continue to be so arrogant.

Jack made everyone wear bulletproof vests with FBI letters on the streets not only for safety reasons, but also as a statement, which not only showed the attitude of the FBI, but also psychologically comforted the citizens.

"Except for Rhett and Garcia who will stay behind, we will all take to the streets during the day tomorrow. Just like Jack said, we work in pairs and must be vigilant." Hotchner said solemnly.

"Jack, Jie Jie and Rosie will go to the scene with Detective Reagan later."

Since you can't figure out the other party's routine for the time being, you might as well take a few steps according to the other party's wishes and see. Your side represents the ultimate violent agency and majestic power. The worst is to add layers of pressure.

When the "DC Snipers" were at their most raging, the National Guard was dispatched.

Garcia is no longer the ordinary otaku who would cover her eyes when she saw a bloody scene. Just as everyone was discussing the allocation of personnel, her mood had recovered and she had quietly returned to Jack's small office to continue working and began to analyze the paragraph just now. Monitor screen.

When Jack and the others came back from the scene of the crime, they found that everyone had gathered in his small office, standing behind Garcia and watching something.

"The scene is the same as before, almost nothing is found. What are you looking at?" Jack asked strangely.

Hotchner loosened his tie and looked a little confused, "Garcia discovered that the murderer this time is not the same as the previous two."

"There are three murderers now?" Rossi also looked in disbelief.

"So the possibility of gang crimes has increased?" Jiejie looked through gang information for a day today, but found nothing. When she thought about what she might have missed, she suddenly felt annoyed.

"Or it could be a family crime, and the murderers may be brothers or something like that. I hope that after everyone takes to the streets during the day tomorrow, they will come back at night to continue profiling to ensure that no clues are missed."

Although everyone is voluntarily working overtime, Hotchner's arrangement basically means that everyone has to live and eat in the federal building.
