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

The NSA and DHS offices in New York were just a few blocks from Federal Plaza. Jubal contacted Dana Mauger at the NSA, and Jack called Hotchner at the DHS.

He informed Hotchner of the details of the original tetrodotoxin case and the recent collar bomb case at the Federal Building, and raised his suspicions from the perspective of the parties involved.

An hour later, Dana Moger and Rosie sent back a message. The NSA confirmed Jack's guess. Through reverse verification, they found a fund flow of US$300 million.

After the money flowed out of a certain virtual currency trading center, it was split into numerous small amounts of less than US$100, and eventually entered several suspicious accounts. The NSA had reason to believe that these accounts were related to the "Dark Jihad".

"So 'Dark Jihad' now has money, a huge sum of money that is enough to pay for the death of more than a dozen suicide attackers. This is probably just the first advance payment, and the remaining money will remain in virtual currency for the time being. on the account.”

Jack was speechless. Just because the other party paid the capital gains tax honestly, the NSA missed the money. Could it be that the people in charge of this group of guys were all poached from the IRS?

Dana Moger also confirmed Jack's speculation on the phone, "The identity of the attack suspect killed by Emily is not in any known criminal database. We don't even know whether he is a resident of the country or a stowaway. This It's in line with 'Dark Jihad''s usual style.

In addition to recruiting believers online, they are also good at finding young believers from local moderate believer families and brainwashing them into suicide attackers. "

Jack said he has become accustomed to Schrödinger's moderation and extremeness. You can never tell whether the other party is an extremist or a moderate before pulling off the bomb vest.

But Rossi raised a new question, "My old friend in the CIA told me that there are forces in Bolivia that are pushing for negotiations with the federal government to extradite Anthony Vargas. If this information is true, it will be the same as Jack's." Contradictions arise.

During the Xi'an Incident on the eve of the Anti-Japanese War, when the bald man was detained, a certain big boss named He staged a white-coated oath and directly sent out the air force to bomb. He said he wanted to rescue the leader, but in fact he hoped to force the two generals Zhang and Yang to make a desperate move. Machine to remove bald head.

"It's not impossible." Rossi was also surprised by Jack's imagination, "But is this operation too complicated? I will discuss it with my old friends from the CIA.

After hanging up the phone, Jack called Hotchner and Joyner who were still at DHS to report the latest information.

There was a hint of sarcasm in Rossi's voice, "Yes, at least there are people within the CIA who agree. It is said that the other party may make some offers that people cannot refuse."

The political situation in this impoverished small Latin American country is chaotic, and various forces are entrenched. The reasons behind it are complicated to say, but in the final analysis, there is only one thing: interference from external forces.

Why would they use a terrorist attack as a threat to release this guy at this time? This simply reduces the possibility of extradition to zero. "

What a mess. Jack has only one comment on this. This is also the tragedy of a small Latin American country. Bolivia is rich in minerals and natural resources, but the country's economic pillar is coca cultivation.

"Is it possible that the Ministry of Justice will agree to Bolivia's extradition? No, the CIA is involved?" Jack heard the implication of his words and thought it was incredible, but then he thought that this was a routine operation of the CIA. Anyway, before It was the FBI that was almost bombed, and even if it wasn't, it wouldn't have been bombed.

However, it is said that the resistance to extradition is not currently within the federation, but is firmly opposed by the Bolivian presidential faction. Well, the political situation in this country is somewhat chaotic, and an interim government is currently in power. "

Considering Rossi's personal connections, this news should be more credible. Jack hesitantly raised another possibility, "Could it be that there is internal strife in the Durange drug cartel? Someone wants to rise to power, so why not use this method?" way to completely eliminate the possibility of Anthony Vargas’ extradition?”

Issues such as extradition are put aside for the time being. It will be easier to confirm that the Durange drug cartel is related to the "Dark Jihad". The NSA monitors the activities of domestic terrorist organizations quite well. In the end, when planning a terrorist attack, it was discovered that everyone was undercover. It's not a joke.

Now that the direction is confirmed, the specific executor behind the scenes should soon be identified.

Maybe the FBI and NYPD can hold a joint press conference again before noon tomorrow. They announced to the public that the murderer was killed purely to confuse the other party and use their tactics to their advantage.

But now the truth has almost been revealed. DHS has sent crisis support teams to the eight areas where attacks have occurred to investigate suspicious situations and will continue to monitor and observe.

"OK, Joyner and I are preparing to leave DHS. They are cooperating with the NYPD and will set up multiple emergency command centers. We are ready to catch them."

Jack heard the ding-dong sound of the elevator reaching the floor from Hotchner's phone.

"How many?" He was a little confused.

"Yes, this is also a lesson the NYPD learned after 911/. That day they fully understood how much eggs can break when you put them in one basket."

What Hotchner was talking about was that when the Twin Towers collapsed, the emergency command center at that time was completely destroyed, and the entire rescue command level, including the New York Fire Department chief, was wiped out, leaving the subsequent accident rescue in a state of no command for a long time.

"OK, then you should go back to the headquarters as soon as possible. I will contact the others. As long as we get through tonight safely, it will be our turn to take action."

Jack hung up the phone and contacted Emily, Hannah, and Jiejie one by one. Then he breathed a sigh of relief. The man behind the scenes had surfaced, and the rest was only a matter of time.

Now we can only hope that the NSA will be more powerful and find out the true identity of the mastermind as soon as possible so that he can come and arrest people. It is now 9 o'clock in the evening, and theoretically we still have 15 hours.

All previous street attacks occurred at noon, which means that the time when the other party may launch an attack should also be at noon. That is when the streets of New York are crowded with tourists, and a bomb attack by the other party can cause the greatest casualties.

But Jack still felt a little uneasy in his heart. It was not surprising that the Durange drug cartel and the "Dark Jihad" merged, but the final motive was a little unclear.

It is normal for the "Dark Jihad" to make any kind of noise, such as creating a terrorist attack that shocked the world and issuing a so-called declaration, but the operation carried out by the Durange drug cartel is really puzzling.

Rossi's previous words have always been lingering in Jack's mind. If they want to save their leader, they are actually doing nothing now, or the best solution is to force the presidential faction to surrender in Bolivia and pass an extradition agreement.

Are you really afraid that Anthony Vargas will choke to death when he drinks water in prison by collaborating with terrorist organizations to carry out terrorist attacks in the United States?

If someone really wants to kill Anthony Vargas in this way as he suspected, it would be better to wait until he is extradited back to Bolivia to do it.

Whether it is sending gunmen or carrying out bomb attacks, it is much simpler. At least there is no need to use a fund of nearly ten million US dollars and take the risk of confronting the "world police". Although the United States is declining day by day, it is still far from It’s not time to lift the knife.

Just as Jack continued to clean his gun and think wildly, there was a sudden explosion, and the alarms of the cars parked below the Federal Building were vibrated, and they all started to scream.

"Where did it explode?"

"What happened?"

Almost everyone in the combat center rushed to the windows and saw flames rising into the sky two streets east of the Federal Building, with thick black smoke rising into the sky under the light of the flames.
