Chapter 51: Quinn's first move
When the sunlight shone through the window of the large conference room of the Los Angeles Police Department headquarters, Matthew pushed the door and walked in, at that time, the conference room was already full of people, all wearing dark suits without the slightest sound, creating a solemn and solemn atmosphere, because everyone knew what today's meeting was about, and no one wanted to provoke the lion in the position of deputy police chief at such a time.
Matthew walked to his seat, bowed his head to the right director's position, and muttered, "The governor just called me and asked me to give a detailed account of yesterday's case in New Mexico, saying that he wanted all the documents to be submitted to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, hoping that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would condemn the Mexican government and use it to deter the armed forces. ”
The director nodded and said, "Does the governor expect the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to scold those - drugs - and tyrants - and directly restore law and order in Los Angeles?" ”
"Anyway, it's a place that we can't touch, and who knows what the governor wants to do with this." They didn't continue, and some things were best up to the point.
"Hmm~" Matthew cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, there is a lot of content in today's meeting, if you don't arrange the work in the department, you can arrange the work in the form of mobile phone text messages in the middle of the meeting." Then, Matthew continued: "Okay, now let's talk about the case that happened yesterday in New Mexico...... Until then, please join me in mourning for my companions who lost their lives yesterday. ”
At that moment, the department leaders in police uniforms in the conference room took off their hats on their heads, including the director.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the case in New Mexico happened after Officer Zhou and Officer Chekov were attacked. In the meantime. The Anti-Crime and Narcotics Bureau has been investigating the whereabouts of these individuals. Finally, we got reliable information and locked the location of Korodi's gang, and confirmed it through surveillance, and then we began to formulate a plan for the arrest......"
When Ma Ti was describing the case, when Pablo was hospitalized and did not sit in this room on the weekend, he was the commander in chief of the operation and could only tell the story himself.
"Is the information reliable?"
Suddenly. A questioning voice came from the crowd, and for a second, all the department heads in the room looked in one direction, where Quinn was sitting.
"Mr. Deputy Director, I'm sorry to interrupt you, but our casualties are too serious, and there has never been such a heavy casualty in the police department in the nearly ten years of history." Quinn was so vicious that he didn't directly blame the actor this time, but came up and hit the source, because he knew. Once he blames any link related to the police investigation bureau in this operation, it is tantamount to stabbing the hornet's nest, and then the Special Operations Bureau, the Anti-Crime and Anti-Narcotics Bureau, and even the deputy chief sitting above him will regard him as a thorn in the flesh. With such a large number of casualties, the leaders of other departments will also start to dislike him, so he must first put on his armor, that is, to ask if there are any loopholes in places that have nothing to do with the police station, and if not, then there is a reasonable reason to doubt the actions of the police department.
The rest of the department leaders in the conference room began to look at Matthew after Quinn said this, Quinn had a point, and more importantly, Quinn's question at this time period had aroused their curiosity, and the Los Angeles Police Department had not died so many people in a single case during the controversial last year.
With everyone looking at Matthew and Matthew looking at Quinn, he responded, "Absolutely reliable." ”
"I'm sorry again for my recklessness." Quinn didn't ask questions, in fact he could have asked and could have asked countless follow-up questions, such as, 'Why are so many people still dying when the information is reliable?' But he won't ask, what he wants is to confirm that the news is reliable, and only when the news is reliable, will it be the responsibility of the commander to have such a large casualty, and who is the commander? It's Matthew, it's the weekend.
Matthew ignored him, and the leaders of various departments also thought that this was an unintentional incident, after all, what they said just now made them all curious, let alone Quinn.
"Under these circumstances, we have developed a detailed battle plan and made all preparations for the evacuation of ordinary people, but fortunately, not a single ordinary person has been harmed as a result, including those who have been taken hostage by the Mexicans." Matthew begins a brief narrative of the entire case.
At this moment, another voice came from Quinn's location: "Is there really no problem with the battle plan?" ”
A-for-tat atmosphere began to emerge, and when the other people in the room looked at Quinn again, the eyes contained in them were completely different from the ones just now.
These people are starting to feel ......
"Guys, I know you think it's annoying for a guy to ask questions in a meeting, and I hate people like that, but if you give me three minutes to explain, I'm afraid everyone will be just as confused about this case as I am."
Quinn didn't wait for Matthew's permission at all, and stood up directly and said: "First of all, Deputy Chief Matthew also said that the source of intelligence is absolutely reliable, and according to the confidentiality agreement, we will not pursue any intelligence-related issues here, because we believe in everyone who works in the police department. Why, then, did we evacuate the entire building with credible intelligence and detailed planning, only to see massive casualties after that? ”
The director of the Special Operations Bureau immediately gave Quinn a heavy punch: "If you honestly close that mouth and listen to Mr. Deputy Director continue, you will immediately understand why." ”
Twenty years ago, when Matthew was still the sergeant of the Anti-Crime and Anti-Narcotics Bureau, the director of the Special Operations Bureau was his Sha Zhan, and he was the only one in the entire Special Operations Bureau who did not have a military background, and it was generally impossible for this kind of person to do the position of the director of the Special Operations Bureau, but people were sitting there, and I am afraid that the discerning people would understand that this was promoted by Matthew, In order to keep the Special Operations Bureau in their own hands.
"No, Director Potter, it's a question that a lot of people can't think of."
"Who knows where our first casualty in that building took place? It happened in the corridor that had been evacuated from house to house, and in this kind of carefully investigated place, there were still Mexicans hiding, or Mexicans in two whole rooms, may I ask Director Porter, can a 'accident' explain it clearly? ”
He didn't mention that no one answered the knock on the door and missed the two rooms as no one investigated, but what Quinn meant was that there were still Mexicans hidden in a carefully investigated place, which was a sign of incompetence!
Director Potter blew up on the spot, stood up and glared at Quinn and said, "You mean my people are killing themselves?" "He couldn't do it safely, and it was his Special Operations Bureau who was responsible for evacuating the residents on the third floor.
Quinn expected that Director Potter would be the first to jump out, and he was prepared for a while, he looked at Matthew and said: "Mr. Deputy Director, this incident has caused irreparable damage to the reputation of the authorities, and I think that the person who made the plan and the person who commanded it on the spot should be responsible!" ”
The director, who was already in a state of semi-retirement, slowly sat up straight, looked at Matthew and said, "Mr. Deputy Director, Sheriff Quinn has raised questions, should you answer it?" ”
Quinn interjected, "Mr. Director, the Deputy Chief will not be involved in making the plan, Sheriff Pablo is in the hospital right now, should we bring in the other person in charge of making the plan, and let him explain to us why an absolutely reliable piece of intelligence would have come up with this 'perfect plan' and ended up with such a big loss?" ”
The Director continued to ask Matthew, "Who made the plan with Pablo?" ”
Matthew sat in the conference room and didn't change his face, and Lao Cheng leaned back in his chair in an aggressive inquiry, leaning back in the chair and saying unhurriedly, "Nick, and, weekend." ”
The director looked to the other side and said to the civilian who was taking notes, "Call for the weekend." ”
For a while, the conference room was quiet, the director of the Special Operations Bureau stared at Quinn intently, Matthew slightly raised the corners of his mouth, one hand was on the arm of the chair, and the other hand was on his belly. (To be continued.) )
