Now that Jimmy has pleaded guilty, he can write a report of the case, which will then be handed over to federal prosecutors for a later trial.

After dealing with this bunch of things, Jimmy can finally rest, and although the shooting murder case was not solved for a while, he accidentally gained another corpse mutilation case, which is also a credit.

Jimmy rarely rested, so he booked a ticket to Broadway and was ready to treat himself. Luckily, there happened to be a Broadway classic "Phantom of the Opera", although it was the first time to watch it, but it was better to watch the classic track to understand the musical than to watch one other at random, although the ticket price is also very expensive.

Jimmy sorted it out early, and found an Italian suit made by a costume designer named Demo, but unfortunately, he was so unhappy with the bow tie that he gave up the bow tie that he used to make this outfit at that time, and instead used his own black tie with purple stripes.

Black suit three-piece suit, white shirt, black tie, black leather shoes, a black windbreaker outside, although the weather is very cold, but driving back and forth, the problem is not big, the image is the most important.

When he came to Broadway and checked his tickets, Jimmy went in, and this was his first time at a Broadway theater, and the seat was a little back in the middle. Jimmy arrives a little early, observing his surroundings while waiting for the opening.

Maybe it's theater etiquette, everyone who enters the room seems to be very quiet, only a few small whispers occasionally ring, Jimmy also took out his phone and glanced at it, confirming that it was muted, no problem.

Jimmy has no musical theater foundation after all, and the first time he came to listen to it, he suddenly felt that he had made a wrong choice. Although he has received news from all sides that musicals are not acceptable to everyone, the more he listens to it, the more he feels that this does not seem to be his own thing.

The main thing is that Jimmy didn't know the backstory of The Phantom of the Opera before, and after only listening to it for half an hour, before the first half was over, he felt that he was about to lose it.

Two halves, plus a break in between, two and a half hours, and during the intermission, Jimmy slipped into the bathroom and lit a cigarette to sober himself up.

During the intermission, Jimmy was also observing the people around him, and many of the people who came to watch the musical here looked quite old, at least middle-aged, and there were very few young people like himself.

I have to say that by looking at these people at the scene, you can know what the so-called class is all about. Basically, Jimmy didn't see a few people of color, and it was basically fine to say that more than 90 percent were white. A young Chinese like him is indeed eye-catching among everyone.

"Jimmy? Is that you? Jimmy heard someone calling him behind him, and turned his head to look over, what kind of luck is this, Jenna is wearing a long white dress, next to him is an old man, uh, it is an old man, he looks about 60, with black hair, but there are obvious wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and forehead.

Jenna took the old man to Jimmy: "It's really you, Jimmy, I didn't expect you to have a hobby of watching opera." ”

Jimmy smiled and greeted Jenna, "Good evening, Jenna." I don't actually come here very often, you know, I'm very busy over there. Who is this? ”

Jenna: "Ronald Raymond, my uncle. ”

Jimmy reached out and shook Raymond's hand, "First meeting, Mr. Raymond." ”

Raymond held Jimmy's hand, seemingly unconsciously a little harder, and Jimmy continued to shake his hand up and down without changing his face. The two shook hands for a few seconds before they let go of each other, Jimmy didn't push too hard, the crime of elder abuse is not light, let alone a friend's relative.

Raymond: "Awesome lad, what do you do?" ”

Jenna interrupted Raymond's questioning by suddenly interjecting: "Okay, he's not your subordinate, why are you asking so much?!" ”

She turned to look at Jimmy, "Did you come here alone?" ”

Jimmy nodded: "It's rare to rest, just come and relax." What about you? Have a drink together after that? ”

Jenna glanced at Raymond: "No, I promised to go home in the evening." ”

Jimmy: "Well, we'll make an appointment then." Goodbye, Jenna, goodbye, Mr. Raymond. Have a good night!”

Jimmy shook hands with Raymond and said goodbye, turned back to the hall, Jenna accompanied her relatives to see the opera, just say hello to herself, and it would be too dull to spend time there.

But Jenna is really versatile, the last time I saw her wear a dress was a knee-length skirt, she looked enthusiastic and cheerful, and the long skirt she wore today looks very dignified, woman.

The second half started quickly, and Jimmy, who was already groggy, rested for a while and regained some energy, and it was already an hour later after watching the second half.

Jimmy slowly left the theater with the flow of people, looked at the time, it should be early, looked at the surroundings, he walked along Broadway for a while, and found a whiskey bar, and he didn't look for anything else.

After entering, the waiter next to him helped take the trench coat, and Jimmy came to the bar area. This bar is a real eye-catcher, with dim yellow lighting and shelves on either side of the bar, where all kinds of drinks are arranged, and most of them are whiskey, but there are also cognacs, Armagnac, rum and tequila.

Maybe there were no customers now, and the bartender was just chatting with Jimmy without a word. Instead of drinking Glenlivet, which he usually drinks, Jimmy chose Kentucky bourbon this time.

This bar is really good, the environment can make people unconsciously relax, and it is very quiet, the music is very low, transparent, and the person who designs the structure of the room is definitely a master. While Jimmy enjoyed the quiet, he drank slowly and chatted with the bartender, which felt really good and could come more often in the future.

Drunk, Jimmy gets up and leaves the bar, retrieves his trench coat from the waiter, and Jimmy returns to the parking lot and drives home.

After the show, Jenna followed Raymond back to her home. A woman who can afford Enzo will naturally not be ordinary people at home, and when she comes to a high-rise flat-floor apartment, Raymond and a couple in the villa sit and chat for a while before leaving, and Jenna's suffering begins.

Although it is the beginning of the 21st century, most parents are still very concerned about their children's romance and marriage, and when they have homosexual affairs, they usually do not approve of it with both hands, and the reason why they came to New York is for this.

After enduring a verbal bombardment, Jenna got up and went to wash and rest, completely as if they were not there, this kind of personal choice is not something that can be solved by a verbal bombardment, but will stimulate a rebellious mentality, and sometimes it will really have the opposite effect.

Jimmy went back to the office and rested for two days, and his spirits were indeed much better, while another batch of filtered materials had arrived, and Chris came in the morning and placed a thick package on Jimmy's desk.

Jimmy didn't open the information, but looked at the case system first, but suddenly he found that the shooting was missing from the to-do list.

"Chris, why is our case gone?" Jimmy yelled, then turned to look at Chris.

Chris was also surprised, he immediately opened the system and started to query, frowning and rummaging around the system, he beckoned to Jimmy, who leaned over and looked at the screen.

The case of the shooting death of former federal prosecutor Joey is already in the process of filing for closure, and the case has entered the information verification stage, and the person handling the case is Special Agent Ryan Phillips of the Queens Field Office.

Jimmy turned to look at Chris, "Chris, after the case is distributed to us, can anyone else operate it?" ”

Chris frowned and nodded: "Yes, the case database is shared. But in principle, the case of the handler has been assigned, and usually no one else will intervene, and strangely, he has not contacted me. ”

Chris looked at Jimmy as well, and the two looked at each other for a moment, then focused their gaze on the monitor.

Jimmy looked at the information that the case was being processed and said to Chris, "There's something wrong with that. Chris, why don't you go and inquire? ”

Chris nodded, "You deal with the rest first, I'll ask." With that, Chris picked up his suit and walked out of the office.

Jimmy returned to his place, still confused, all the cases he had been in contact with before, it didn't seem to be like this, whether it was the county police before, or in the Peter and Ruiz group before, there was no one else to deal with the case in their hands, is there a special rule for homicide?

But Chris doesn't know, he's an old detective, not to mention anything else, just that little gray hair is a sign of his seniority.

This is the FBI, if you don't qualify, you will definitely be placed in other positions, even if one or two bosses can keep people, there is no guarantee that Chris will be able to sit firmly in the hands of every boss for so many years.

There is also that Ryan, who was the one who took over the shooting of MS13 by himself, and was also launched by Hughes for a joint inquiry, which was very impressive.

After thinking about it for a while, Jimmy can only open other materials to change his mood, for these historical cases, it is still very valuable for reference, take a look at it more, and there will be a reference target when encountering similar cases in the future.

More than half an hour later, Chris returned. The expression on Chris's face was complicated, that look like he wanted to laugh but didn't know what to say.

Jimmy stood up and asked, "Chris, how's it going?" Is there a result? ”

Chris nodded, returned to his position, and took off his suit and hung it aside. He pressed his hands into fists on the table and looked at Jimmy, "You never thought of what was going on. ”

Jimmy is speechless, stop making trouble, hurry up. "What's the matter? You don't say how I guess. ”

Chris stood up straight and looked at Jimmy, "We didn't solve the case, and we didn't solve it, it was a complete accident."

When the NYPD in Queens initiated a traffic stop, a car escaped, and it took about half an hour of chase before they stopped it, and a shootout broke out, and the gunman was dead.

The gunman's pistol was a ghost gun, and they sent it back for testing, and the test center matched the trajectory, which was the gun that killed Joey, and they notified the FBI office in Queens, and the case was closed. ”

Jimmy was dumbfounded when he heard this, and he had done it for nothing for the past two weeks. Is it such a coincidence? Do you want to be so exciting? The point is to make yourself look like an idiot like this, running back and forth for two weeks, working overtime, and that's the result?

Jimmy asked, "Has the gunman been identified?" ”

Chris nodded, "I just said, you would never guess what happened, and now I have to add, you will never think of who this person is."

Jimmy, you're investigating in the right direction, just not so lucky.

The gunman was indeed the main culprit in the case that Joey had tried before, but not in the last period of time, but more than ten years ago, he committed second-degree murder, was sentenced to 20 years, and was just released from prison three weeks ago, he should have investigated Joey's situation a long time ago, and shot Joey shortly after he was released from prison.

Of course, I guessed all of these reasons, and now no one knows what is going on. ”

Jimmy frowned: "Isn't it, it's early to get out of prison again?" Manny was released from prison early the other day. How could the prison allow these people to be released early? ”

In addition to these, Jimmy is still a little suspicious, the truth of the matter may not be so simple, is there someone behind him? Are there any other reasons? Or is this guy just an unlucky guy who has been pushed out?

Chris also pouted: "It's not something we can manage." Okay, now that the case is over, I'll see if there are any other cases. ”

Jimmy smiled and said to Chris, "Do you want to do it like this?" Chris, we've just finished a big case, why don't you take a break? ”

Chris raised his eyebrows: "Do you have any plans?" ”

Jimmy: "I've been very busy this year, half a year at the academy, half a year at work, and I'm also very tired, so I don't plan to go out at the end of the year." ”

Chris: "Oh? So where are you going to play? ”

Jimmy: "Europe? I haven't had much rest since I came to Manhattan, and I just happened to take advantage of the fact that it was almost Christmas, so I went out for a walk. ”

Chris frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head, "I can't approve this matter, wait for me to ask." ”

Jimmy shrugged, and he just meant to ask, what if he could sneak out and play, right? The previous vacations were all for specific reasons, and it was basically impossible to go out and play without any worries.

Originally, Jimmy was working on the case, and he didn't want to take a vacation now, but the case was suddenly gone, and the desire to sneak out to play came to him.

At noon, Chris didn't ask Jimmy to go out to eat together, but went out by himself, Jimmy didn't bother to run far, so he bought a burger and coffee nearby for lunch and returned to the office to rest.

Now there are only two people in this office, Chris has not come back, Jimmy is more free, and directly sits on the sofa next to him and falls asleep.

Before leaving work, Chris said to Jimmy: "Hughes has approved, give you a week off, come back before Christmas, you need to work overtime on Christmas until after New Year's Day." Questions? ”

Unexpectedly, when Chris said he couldn't approve the holiday, Jimmy thought it was out of play.

Jimmy nodded, "Of course, no problem. Will it start tomorrow? ”

Chris nodded: "Go back and clean up, come back early." ”

Jimmy cleaned up his desk, turned off his computer, picked up his suit and trench coat, and flashed. I decided to go out on the spot, and it was really the first time, because Europe was also the first time to go, and Jimmy thought about it and decided to go to France.

The United States and the European Union are visa-free, and you can book a ticket directly with your passport and call to Paris for a direct flight that takes only 6 hours. Fortunately, this time is not yet the peak period before Christmas, and the air tickets are still very rich.

Jimmy booked a ticket for the next day, and packed a suitcase in the evening to start preparing, this time Jimmy planned to take a look at the situation by the way, whether to enable the identity, the identity card is still on Tom's side, and he hasn't got it back, but Tom has already given Jimmy Science to contact the European branch of the phone number and password, no card is not a big problem, the key is that the phone needs to be brought, and when you decide to enable it, then install the battery.
