Jimmy doesn't interfere with the car's inspection, and Carg calls someone to deal with it, while Jimmy drives to the FBI office.

Jimmy found Hatten: "Hatten, tell the surveillance team not to look for the car, Superintendent Kag has found it." ”

Hatten: "Huh? Already found? Where is it? ”

Jimmy sat on the chair and shook his head: "In North Little Rock, an unmonitored roadside rushed into the Arkansas River, no suspect was found in the car, and now the car has been hoisted out and parked at the county police headquarters, and Carg will arrange for someone to do the inspection." ”

Hatten nodded: "Then the only clue now is yesterday's gunman." ”

Jimmy: "How are they now?" ”

Hatten: "The operation has been completed, and now there is no life-threatening situation, and I am in the hospital for observation, and I cannot be taken to the detention center for the time being." ”

Jimmy: "Isn't it okay to interrogate you directly in the hospital?" ”

Hatten was actually not so anxious, after all, for him, this was just a case, and he didn't have any special feelings for James: "It's okay, I'll take someone to the hospital later, you can rest first." ”

Jimmy nodded, "I'll go back first." ”

The matter came to an end, the clue was interrupted for the time being, and it was necessary to wait for the follow-up from Hatten's side, and Jimmy did not plan to interfere in their actions, after thinking about it, Jimmy still decided to go to the hospital.

Still bought a bouquet of lilies, Jimmy came to the hospital, and the county police at James's door had been replaced, and this Jimmy had not seen it.

"Hi, I'm Jimmy, come and see James." Jimmy greets the county sheriff, whose eyes widen suddenly. Jimmy, Asian, this group is the most famous iconic tough guy of the county police in recent years, although he has never met, but he is very familiar with Jimmy's deeds.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, senior, I'm Williams, Williams Cherry, who just joined this year." Williams shook Jimmy's hand, "Sheriff is awake, and you're here just in time." ”

Williams turned and knocked on the door, opened it and said inside, "Mrs. Baldwin, Jimmy is here." Then get out of the way of the door and let Jimmy in.

Jimmy: "Mrs. Baldwin, how is James?" He handed the flower to Mrs. Baldwin.

Mrs. Baldwin took the flower and smiled and said to Jimmy, "Very good, the doctor said the recovery is good, for the elderly." ”

Jimmy: "That's good. He turned to look at James in the hospital bed, who was awake and was looking at Jimmy and Mrs. Baldwin.

Jimmy came to the bedside and reached out to hold James's uninjured left hand, "James, I'm coming." ”

James couldn't speak, because his face was pierced from right to left, and now it was completely wrapped, leaving only a little bit of room for his lips, and he could eat some liquid food during meals to replenish nutrition, and he couldn't speak, he blinked and responded to Jimmy.

Jimmy: "Kag and I are already investigating, don't worry, we're going to catch that bastard who shot him, and the FBI office in Little Rock is helping." ”

James looked at Jimmy, nodded slightly, and then shook his head slightly, but Jimmy couldn't see what he was trying to say now, and there was no way, who usually communicates like this.

Jimmy: "You have a good rest, I'll go back first." Jimmy let go of James' left hand, said goodbye to Mrs. Baldwin, and left the hospital room. It's not that he doesn't want to talk more, but Jimmy and Mrs. Baldwin are not familiar with each other, and they don't know what to say, and James can't speak at all, and it's too awkward to talk alone.

Jimmy explained a few words to the Williams police officer at the door, then left the hospital and went back to the hotel, now Carg is investigating the car, Hatten is investigating the gunman, Jimmy has nothing to do but rest.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Jimmy was just about to go to bed, the phone rang, he glanced at the number, it was an unfamiliar number again, he answered the phone, and a somewhat familiar voice came from inside.

"Jimmy, where are you?"

Jimmy was shocked, "Tom, is that you?" ”

Tom: "Well, where are you?" ”

Jimmy: "Little Rock, a hotel not far from the county police headquarters. ”

Tom: "Remember that lake?" Come and see me. ”

Tom hung up the phone after speaking, Jimmy was still a little confused, and he had just replied casually in shock, but now his mind had not yet turned. Isn't Tom dead? It's been more than a year, why are you calling him now?

Jimmy cleaned up, filled the holster, checked the nest, and drove out of the hotel to the lake where he had met Tom.

Here you can drive directly to the lake, turn off the engine, did not get out of the car, he was observing the surroundings, behind a tree next to him, a person came out.

Jimmy pulled out the revolver and took it in his hand, got out of the car and walked over.

Jimmy: "Tom, it's really you. ”

Tom: "Can't you prove it when you were called here?" ”

Jimmy: "Why?" You faked your death for more than a year, why did you come out again? Does James know? ”

Tom shook his head: "I didn't inform the others, I just learned that James was shot, so I rushed back." Is James okay now? ”

Jimmy: "I was shot three times, I was rescued, and I'm still in the hospital, not in danger of my life." ”

Tom nodded: "Then I'll rest assured, don't tell him, at least until the matter is settled." ”

Jimmy: "What the hell is going on?" ”

Tom: "Did you get the box?" ”

Jimmy nodded, Tom, "Did you contact the phone number above?" ”

Jimmy: "No, I'm not sure if it's safe, I haven't called the number on that card." Also, I haven't installed a battery on the phone inside, so I'm worried about being located. I was not contacted by any CIA during this time, and I did not contact any CIA people. ”

Tom: "Very good, you're cautious, that's a good thing. That phone number was something I left for you to prove your identity, and if I had an accident, I could save your life in special circumstances, but I didn't know that anyone was targeting me at the time, and if you did contact you, you would also be implicated. ”

Jimmy: "Tom, tell me, I'm still confused. ”

Tom shook his head again: "This matter is not something that you can meddle in as a policeman, there are many big people involved, and I will handle it." ”

Jimmy also shook his head: "I'm no longer in the police department, I went to the FBI Academy at the beginning of this year, and now I'm an agent in the FBI Manhattan office, just temporarily seconded to Dallas." Trust me, I'm not the same as I used to be. ”

Tom looked at Jimmy not talking, probably thinking about something. After thinking for a moment, Tom shook his head: "It's not time yet, you don't know anything about Langley, and intervening might make them target you." ”

Jimmy: "I didn't think about it, but since you showed up, I suspect that James was shot and that it really had something to do with you." ”

Tom: "What's the doubt?" I don't know the specifics yet. ”

Jimmy: "James was shot by a gunman on the road when he was off work, and then he was taken to the hospital, and when I investigated later, I found out that the gunman's target was James, not random.

As James left the police station, a surveillance van followed him, and when the gunman caught up with James, the van left.

The gunman's car has been found in the Arkansas River, the gunman behaves in a completely different way from the average gangster gunman, and in addition, we have tracked down the surveillance van to a vehicle repair shop in the east of the city, and the people inside were injured after a shootout with us, and now the FBI office in Little Rock is interrogating them, hoping to get some clues. ”

Tom: "A garage in the east of town? Is there a middle-aged, white man who doesn't like to have a beard? ”

Jimmy was taken aback: "How do you know, the owner of the repair shop, said that his name is William, and it is what you say." ”

Tom: "Damn, this is a domestic point of contact for the CIA, and I've dealt with him a lot before.

William used to be an intelligence officer in the CIA, but he left the CIA a few years ago, but he did not completely strip the relationship, he went back to his hometown to open a repair shop, and usually we would look for him when we needed to replenish weapons and supplies.

William is obviously the owner of the maintenance shop, but he is actually a contractor, and some things that are inconvenient for us to do will be handed over to someone like him. ”

Jimmy: "He's been shot, five people have been arrested, four people have been shot. By the way, has he been trained in counter-interrogation? If the FBI interrogated him as an ordinary person, he might not be able to ask anything at all. ”

Tom: "Of course there is, so it's not possible, it's definitely not possible." Since they made a move, something must have gone wrong, and why are they targeting Jeffes? ”

Jimmy: "Kill people? Zhulian? What exactly did you do? Also, it's been more than a year, if it's really murder, it should have started earlier, why do you do it now? Did they find out that you weren't dead? ”

Tom: "I'm not going to talk about it today, I'm going to investigate it and I'll contact you later." With that, Tom turned and walked straight behind the tree, and then he pushed out a motorcycle, started and left.

Jimmy watched Tom leave, he didn't leave in a hurry, but sat on a chair by the lake, and the events of the past few days still need to be sorted out again.

Tom's appearance made Jimmy's original idea deviate from a huge deviation, I originally thought it was just James's enemy who found someone to take revenge, after all, James has also been a policeman for many years, and now he is a sheriff, and it is normal to have an enemy who has not been killed, so Jimmy's goal has always been the gunman, find the gunman and then chase down the mastermind behind the scenes, and solve the problem once and for all.

Now Tom has appeared, and a man who has been dead for more than a year has suddenly appeared, still a person in a special agency, and the variables are too great. The person monitoring James turned out to be a former CIA, so James was probably implicated in something terrible by Tom, which led to someone wanting to kill people and kill everyone associated with Tom.

William's former CIA intelligence officer should be the key, but Hatten has made it clear that Jimmy will not be involved, and William is also lying down directly with Jimmy, how can he be trusted and let him spit out the truth?

Tom is really, he dug a hole for himself again, if he didn't know, forget it, he couldn't find a way to get William once when he knew, and his heart was itchy.

By the way, there is another thing I forgot to ask, the names of those signatures on my file, these things that may be useful in the future, and I have to talk to Tom about it later.

Looking around, there was no ghost, Jimmy got up and drove away from the lake, returned to the hotel, and continued to rest.

When he woke up in the morning, Jimmy suddenly felt as if he had a dream, but when he thought of Tom, he immediately picked up his phone and took a look, the early morning call was indeed in the call log, Jimmy saved the number, and then got up to wash.

Heading out for breakfast, Jimmy came to the county police headquarters, and Karg's inspection of the car should have been over, after all, it was almost a day. Jimmy finds Karg in the office, because of James's case, Karg did not go to the division patrol today, but stayed directly at the headquarters.

Jimmy: "Karg, is yesterday's inspection done?" ”

Kag glanced up at Jimmy, "There is no clue, the car has been soaked in the river for a day, there are no fingerprints or anything on it, and there are no personal belongings in the car, it is very clean." ”

Jimmy frowned, if there were no clues here, it would be too much trouble to rely entirely on the people on the repair shop. "No clues?"

Cag: "Well, I asked someone, I soaked in the Arkansas River for a day, especially when the car door was still open, even if there were some bits and pieces in the car, they were all taken away by the river, and there was no way to look for it below, so I had to give up." ”

Karg pushed what he was dealing with and stood up, "Is there any news from the FBI?" ”

Jimmy nodded: "Yesterday we raided a repair shop, the car that monitored James has been repainted, but a few people have been arrested, and the FBI is interrogating, I can't interfere with this, I can only wait for their news, and there is no yet." ”

Karg turned his head to look at Jimmy, "Who's in charge?" Shall I contact the police department? ”

Jimmy: "Agent Hatten is in charge, but I don't think it's useful for you to use the name of the police department, I'm still an FBI agent, I'm also excluded, I'm not from the Little Rock office after all." ”

Karg sighed: "Of course, it is impossible for others to interfere in this kind of big case, in fact, if you think about it, you know that the credit is secondary, they need the help of people in other offices to handle cases, and they may not be able to get over the face." I had no choice but to wait. Now even the gunman is tall, short, fat and thin, and only one video screenshot is still covered by big sunglasses, how careful these people are. Ay. ”

Jimmy: "Well, if you don't have any clues here, I'll go to the FBI first, and I'll keep up with you if there's any news." I'll go first. ”

Jimmy turned around and left the office after speaking, and drove to the FBI, back and forth, Jimmy has been running back and forth between the headquarters and the FBI office for the past few days, but the harvest is pitiful, if it wasn't for the fact that he had just met Tom in the early morning, I'm afraid he would have to wait for Harden's news now, and now, maybe there is a chance to get some information.

While driving, Jimmy remembered the conversation with Justin yesterday, it seems that Justin also has some insider information, but now maybe even if he asks, nothing will come of it.
