319 Prioritize self-preservation
Hughes thought for a moment and continued, "Do you think Peter can take my place now?" ”
Chris: "Competence isn't an issue, but can DC agree?" ”
Hughes: "So I've been wasting down, and I'm already thinking about succession." Unfortunately, I probably won't last long, and that Neil Kavrey, Peter is too stubborn sometimes, Neil will definitely drag Peter down, from the time I met him. Chris, hold on for another two years, maybe you'll need to push them a little bit later. ”
Chris: "Is there a time set?" ”
Hughes: "Not yet, but at most half a year, and I don't know how long it will last." ”
Chris nodded, he reached out and patted Hughes on the arm, turned and left the office. Hughes returned to his position, looked up a number from his computer, and texted Jimmy.
Jimmy left Federation Square and drove back to his apartment, the traffic in New York during the day was not good, he didn't think too much about it on the road for safety, and when he got home, Jimmy began to thoroughly sort out his two-week process.
Hughes just said, I don't know if he was thinking too much, he always felt that he was targeting himself, the Secret Service will indeed coordinate with the local FBI office to ensure security when doing the security of the president and vice president, and at the same time, the local police department will cooperate to control traffic on the perimeter. But Chicago is in Illinois, far away from New York, more than a thousand kilometers, no matter how coordinated, it should not be transferred from New York, and it is only one person.
When the local FBI office needed support, it was common to transfer people from headquarters, and Jimmy's secondment from New York to the Dallas office was outrageous enough, and there was more or less a reason at the time, he happened to travel to Dallas, so it was a reason to stop by. Now it's Chicago, Illinois, a place that Jimmy has never been to in his life, why is it arranged?
Jimmy thought about the headache, the two-week process was actually nothing special, from Dallas to Washington, DC, then around DC, and then back to New York. You must know that Langley is not far from DC, and Victoria's villa is strictly only a few dozen kilometers away from DC, so it is impossible to infer that he has a relationship with Frank just from his whereabouts. Besides, Jimmy has makeup and cover-ups all the way, so he won't be noticed.
When he went to Langley, the only mobile phone that could be located was also in that villa, and it did not appear in Langley, if he was exposed, it must not be because of this, so where?
Oh no, Jimmy suddenly remembered something, he shot and wounded 5 people when he stopped the field agents and the squad from chasing Victoria, at that time just to keep them from seeing him, wearing a hood, but the pattern of shooting himself, this is too distinctive.
No, on second thought, it seems that I only showed one revolver shot at the FBI support force camp, and that time it was rapid-fire, which is different from the frequency and characteristics of the shooting when five people were wounded on the scene that day. I can only do it directly with my heart eye after upgrading the eye of the heart.,This is completely different from the rapid fire of aiming at the target.,Theoretically, you shouldn't doubt yourself, right?
At most, he is a revolver rapid-fire master who is similar to Jimmy, and there is no evidence to directly conclude that it is Jimmy himself.
If you think about other things, it seems that the other parts should not be in danger of being exposed, and that's it. Identifying the possible danger, Jimmy also decided, this time to support the Secret Service, he must honestly hide aside, and don't attract attention again.
Jimmy tidied up his suitcase, but he didn't expect to be used again in just a few days. On the way to the airport, Jimmy sent a message to Frank on an anonymous phone, asking him to call back if he was free, and soon Frank's phone call came back, and there was nothing on the phone, just a simple appointment to meet, after which Jimmy took off for Chicago.
In the evening, Jimmy came to Chicago and opened a room in the hotel next to the FBI office, and Jimmy went out to eat and meet with Frank and them in the evening.
Frank picks up Jimmy in a car, then gets on the highway and leaves the city to an abandoned factory. Chicago is one of the international financial cities, and the planning here has long been dealing with all kinds of abandoned factories, but there are many factories in the suburbs that have not been redeveloped, and such places are usually a paradise for homeless people and all kinds of criminals.
Driving directly into the factory, Jimmy found an acquaintance here, why is Tom here? Although Tom was wearing makeup, Frank and the four of them looked very familiar to Jimmy, and the only unfamiliar person would naturally pay a little more attention, and then he saw some familiar features.
Jimmy didn't say anything and walked after Frank. Frank: "Jimmy, what's the matter with us in such a hurry?" ”
Jimmy: "I'm here in Chicago because the Secret Service has applied for support from the FBI, and they've been told that someone is going to deal with the vice president, and now the FBI Chicago office has put support staff in place, and I'll be on board tomorrow." Did you leak it? Threats against the vice president. ”
Frank nodded, "Is that just that?" ”
Jimmy looked at Tom, who nodded and didn't speak. "I had a bad feeling that I was being suspected, and this time the FBI support was not only from the Chicago office, but also from the New York office, but I was the only one, and no one else. I don't know what's going on, so I need to make sure with you, when was I exposed? Or is there something I haven't thought about showing the horse's feet? ”
Frank and they looked at each other, "At least you weren't exposed when you were with us." If this is your mission, stay away from us and don't interfere with our operations. ”
Jimmy nodded, "Okay." I'm just here to tell you that this time the protection will be bigger, so be careful. ”
After that, Jimmy was about to leave, and Tom walked over from the side and walked with Jimmy to the outside of the factory.
Coming to the outside of the factory, Jimmy didn't stop, continued to walk out, and when he reached the middle of nowhere, he looked at Tom and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?" ”
Tom: "Wipe your ass." You're really too bold to try to win their trust just by relying on an unconfirmed piece of information, my face is not so big, do you really think that you and Frank can let him take you with you just by meeting and chatting a few times? Immature. If I don't show up in front of him, there is no way to confirm what I said before, which naturally means that you are an unstable factor in the eyes of several of them. Veronica's name can only stabilize them temporarily, and it won't keep you alive forever. ”
Jimmy whispered, "Thanks, I was really impulsive before, and the news that the follow-up to the Stumbling Block Project might get me cleared made me anxious to get acquainted with the CIA." Sorry to disappoint you. ”
Tom: "Boy, I know you're young, you're just in your early 20s, and it's understandable to be impulsive, but this is the CIA, and any mistake is going to be doomed, and I don't want to inform James of your death."
Protect yourself and don't get involved in anything other than that. They're too old, and even if they're perfectly planned, the success rate won't be too high, you just have to hide and stay away from their goals. ”
Jimmy nodded, "I see, thanks, Tom." ”
Tom: "Let's go back, by the way, they already know the identity of Veronica's son, and I have confirmed it, they will not embarrass you, but don't think that you can get close to them, the relationship of the older generation can be forcibly inherited without kinship." You have to understand that. ”
Jimmy continued to nod, and the two returned to the factory gate, "Frank, I want you to help me take me back." I won't be here after that. ”
Jimmy made his way back to the hotel, and instead of going out to play, he washed up and rested in his room early.
(Take care of yourself, it's suddenly cold, and I have a cold...... Rest assured, there are no sheep. )
