Chapter 4 Hearing the Wind and Moving (2) Suspects

()

Colonel Charles gives Tim an overview of the current state of the investigation, and it goes without saying that Tim and his guards in Langley and the White House are worried about the second scenario that Colonel Charles is talking about. [No pop-ups. 】

"In any case, planning such a big operation, there will definitely be changes in some aspects, the communication between these people, the flow of personnel must be strengthened, monitoring, screening, they cannot be airtight, Colonel Charles, thank you and your team for the fruitful work during this period of time, but we cannot relax now, and it is imperative to find out the whereabouts of the nuclear shells as soon as possible."

Despite not hearing the encouraging message, Tim gave a positive assessment of the work of Charles and others, and Mike continued with Tim's words:

"We are now reading the relevant information of the exchanges of people in various fields, stations and public places around the place of the incident, and all the sensitive people and dangerous elements in our possession are under surveillance, and if these people appear in the relevant areas during this period of time, we will definitely pull out their tails, in addition, we also have people who are approaching the members of the joint working group set up by the Russian side and the Georgian side to deal with this incident from special channels, and we can be sure that we will be informed here as soon as new progress is made in this investigation."

"Very well, although I don't have much hope for their joint investigation, I still hope that they will find something out there, and this matter will not put less pressure on their political authorities than we do, and I believe that a large number of people will be held accountable for this later."

A day later, Colonel Charles, along with one of his assistants, Bobby, and Clarke, an intelligence agency technician, knocked on Tim's makeshift office at the base, where Mike was reporting to Tim on some of his findings over the past few days.

"Tim, Mike, you all happen to be here, I think we've got some clues, this is Captain Bobby, you met two days ago, and it's a senior data analyst here."

"What did you find?"

Mike asked his subordinate, Technician Clark, who glanced at Bobby beside him and said:

"In the screening process in the past few days, we will compare the surveillance images collected in key areas through the face recognition system, hoping to find out a face we are familiar with, but unfortunately, we have not been able to find anything in the two-day screening process, and then Bobby proposed that some names and key words be added to the fuzzy search process, and we have also expanded the scope of screening, not limited to dangerous elements active in the area around the incident, but almost all the hostile to us in our database. The list of threatened government organizations and personnel, the two screenings were carried out crosswise, and this time, we finally got something. ”

Clark, who is mainly responsible for monitoring and monitoring the whereabouts of dangerous people, has a lot of experience in how to find suspicious targets from the vast sea of people, and Bobby, who graduated from a university of higher learning, is better at grabbing valuable information from a huge and complicated variety of information. On this basis, many analysts under him narrowed down the target of suspicion layer by layer, and when Bobby was on these key suspicion targets, he noticed a target person who had not been paid attention to before, and this person was Kim Jong-seok, a military attache of the Northern Dynasties stationed in Romania, according to his entry and exit records, Bobby found that in the month before the incident, Kim Jong-seok had repeatedly entered and exited Russia and Georgia, and frequently entered and exited these two countries in such a short period of time, which was an unusual move that attracted Bobby's attention.

Although Kim Jong-seok has long been marked and registered with the intelligence bureau and clearly marked as the head of the North Korean intelligence agents and a high-ranking agent, and he himself has been involved in several secret operations to kidnap and assassinate defectors and hostile targets, although this is only a suspicion and no real evidence, the surveillance department of the United States still lists him as a key target, although Kim Jong-seok's danger level is not as good as those internationally renowned terrorist tycoons and anti-government armed factions, but this person is dangerous enough.

With this clue, Bobby immediately listed Kim Jong-seok as a priority screening target, and soon, he found Kim Jong-seok's figure again in the inbound crowd at the Georgian International Field, and this time Kim Jong-seok appeared in Georgia, according to the train attack was less than two days ago, what is more suspicious is that although Bobby found Kim Jong-seok himself in the inbound crowd, he did not find Kim Jong-seok's entry and exit records in the passenger registration list and entry registration.

With Clark's assistance, Kim Jong-seok's whereabouts after entering Georgia were gradually revealed, apparently Kim Jong-seok used other names to enter Georgia on this trip, Clark found the passport information of Kim Jong-seok's entry registration, followed Kim Jong-seok with another identity name in Georgia's consumer account all the way, and finally found Kim Jong-seok's final foothold in a small city near the border of Georgia, and the reason why Bobby and Clark confirmed that Kim Jong-seok was the major suspect in this incident was in a small hotel in the city, Kim Jong-seok's meeting with two other people, one of whom was not included in the surveillance target, can still be found in the intelligence agency's database, and the record shows that the man is not only a cyber hacker, but also a bomb expert, who is proficient in explosives, cyber attacks and password cracking.

This is a major discovery, that is, contrary to everyone's previous expectations, and somewhat reasonable, the North Korea, which has been under sanctions, has always been developing its own nuclear weapons program openly and covertly, and if it can achieve the miniaturization of nuclear weapons, it will undoubtedly greatly increase their bargaining chips at the negotiating table, and they have been sparing no effort to implement their plans at any time.

A few hours after Tim and the others learned of this clue, the two intelligence officers had rushed to the apartment that Bo and the others had rented before, and they found the landlord through the community, as expected, the tenant of the house had been gone for a few days, and the time of check-out was the first day of the attack, and the two intelligence officers did not find any valuable clues in the room, and the only gain was to confirm the fact that Bo and the others had rented here.

"This is definitely not a coincidence, from now on, we have to focus on digging out the final whereabouts of these people, tracking their next plan of action, finding informants who have been in contact with the North Koreans, and we have to find out what the purpose of these North Koreans came all the way here to rob two nuclear shells."

Although it is extremely unlikely that the North Koreans will use the two intercepted nuclear shells to attack the United States and its overseas bases, Tim will definitely not relax his tracking of this incident, and an invisible net has begun to spread around Georgia.

At the same time, a secret task force of retired special forces attached to the Intelligence Agency has entered the area and is ready to be deployed for the upcoming strike.
