339 Nostalgic times
Two of them can be seen directly from Jimmy's current location, and the other one cannot be seen for the time being due to the distance. Don't worry, though, because Jimmy and Chris's car is not far from the exit, and if another station wagon comes by, it can be stopped near the exit.
While smoking his second cigarette, Jimmy noticed a man walking to the side of one of the station wagons and was about to open the door, and he walked straight up to him, "Hey sir, can I delay you a little?" ”
The man who was about to enter the cab stopped and looked up at Jimmy, "Me?" What's the matter? ”
Jimmy took out his credentials: "FBI special agent Jimmy, there are a few questions I want to ask, just a minute." ”
The man closed the door and walked to the front of the car: "Please speak." ”
Jimmy: "What do you call it?" ”
Man: "Just call me Mike." ”
Jimmy: "Where were you or your car three days ago morning?" ”
Mike thought for a moment: "Three days ago?" I was supposed to be at home and I didn't go out that day. The car is also at home. ”
Jimmy: "Are you sure?" ”
Mike: "yes, I'm pretty sure. I spent two days recuperating at home for health reasons, and three days ago, I was at home. ”
Jimmy: "OK, thank you for your cooperation. ”
Jimmy made a note on his notepad and prepared to leave. Mike asked, "What's the problem?" ”
Jimmy: "Well, there was a car accident, and the vehicle involved was the same model as yours, so let's investigate." Goodbye, Mike. ”
Jimmy had already sent the license plate number back to the bureau before, but there was no feedback when he smoked just now, so now he will probably ask, record it, and then check it after investigating the car information later.
The key is for Jimmy to use the conversation to determine the driver's status, whether there is any unusual reaction, and so on.
Before he could return to the position he was waiting for, he suddenly heard Chris shouting, "Jimmy! Discover the target! Keep up with me! ”
Jimmy immediately ran back to where they parked, Chris had already started to chase after him, good guy, only one right hand can be used, and he dares to drive a car chase? Don't you want to die?
Jimmy got into the car, started straight and rushed out, the railing of the exit had been smashed by the first car, Chris followed and rushed out, Jimmy was in the third car, this is no longer the time to communicate with the parking lot security, it can only be like this first.
There are not a lot of cars on the road, and although it is not commuting time, there are many cars on the road even during the day. The station wagon in front of him was already boggling through the traffic, and Chris was clearly driving very badly, so Jimmy took advantage of a gap to pass through it, and he followed the station wagon a few distances away.
After chasing for a while, Jimmy looked in the rearview mirror, Chris was about to be dumped, and while it was okay on the road, Jimmy directly pressed the emergency dial of the FBI phone, dialed Chris's phone, turned on the outlet, and put the phone on the center console.
Jimmy: "Chris, I'm still following that station wagon, you should inform the NYPD that I don't have a radio or a siren on my car, so they can stop in front or stay out of my way." ”
Chris's side had already given up, he controlled it with one hand, and his left arm could only be placed on the steering wheel to fix the steering wheel temporarily, and he couldn't drill in the traffic at all. After answering Jimmy's call, he immediately used the radio in the car to contact the NYPD dispatch center.
It's this set of things, Chris has it in the car, and Jimmy doesn't, so now it looks like two cars driving recklessly in traffic, a black station wagon in front and a black Victoria Crown in the back, and it doesn't show the intention of the car behind chasing the car in front at all.
Jimmy is also getting more and more excited, as if he is back to when he was a patrol officer two years ago, when he was also Victoria's Crown, galloping on suburban roads and highways every day, chasing cars every once in a while, and the good times are always nostalgic.
Jimmy navigated the traffic, getting more and more comfortable, after all, he hadn't been involved in this kind of car chase for more than a year, and he was really a little nervous at first, but now after a few minutes of chasing, that feeling came back.
There were already police lights flashing on the road ahead, Jimmy didn't mean to stop chasing, and kept biting the station wagon in front of him, in such a traffic environment, the speed of the car was not fast, but because of the cars of ordinary people on the road, Jimmy had no good position at all, so he could only follow behind.
The police car was left behind, looking as if they were chasing Jimmy. At an intersection in front of me, the station wagon ran a red light and passed through, followed by Jimmy and the police car, and there were sirens and lights indicating that the other cars at the intersection had slowed down and stopped. Jimmy bit into the back of the station wagon, and seeing that there were not many cars in front of him, he stepped on the accelerator to speed up, and finally came to the right rear of the station wagon.
While speeding up and gently turning the steering wheel, the left side of the front of the car directly pasted the position of the right rear wheel of the station wagon, no PIT success, the station wagon shook left and right, it looked dangerous, but he still managed to maintain the car's posture and continued to drive forward, only because of the left and right shaking just now caused his speed to further decrease.
This was Jimmy's first attack, which ended in failure, and he could only continue to follow behind, looking for an opportunity. This is an urban road, not spacious, except for sidewalks on both sides of the road, there are residential apartment buildings, if there is a serious mistake in this kind of place, causing the station wagon to hit the residential building, it is not a good thing for Jimmy, the attack just now is actually reckless.
But Jimmy can't help it, although he is not familiar with the roads, but the roads in the city are like this, and it is obviously too much to find a suitable wide place to start, and it is basically impossible.
Continue to chase two intersections, at the intersection in front, the station wagon suddenly hit the right turn signal, this driving habit is very good, Jimmy came to the spirit, whether he is doing a feint or not, you have to be prepared, if he really turns right, then when the right turn slows down, it is the best time.
Jimmy accelerated directly, the car in front slowed down and turned, and Jimmy was directly hit by the position of the right rear door of the car, and rushed diagonally to the wrong lane, followed by the driver should be unprepared for emergencies, in order to maintain stability, he stepped on the brakes and swung the steering wheel, trying to correct the direction of the car, but unfortunately, he still collided with the car in the lane.
Jimmy slowed down and turned right after the PIT was successful, and immediately turned around after stabilizing the car, and then he was unlucky, and the NYPD police car behind him directly gave him a PIT, crashed into the left rear side, and Jimmy's car turned 180 degrees as if it was close to turning on the spot.
"Boom", several police cars stopped around Jimmy's car, and several NYPDs got out of the car and raised their guns to aim at Jimmy, "Driver, raise your hands and let me see your hands!" ”
“Fxxk! I'm an FBI agent! Jimmy was pointed at several pistols and did not dare to move, he could only impotently shout that he was an FBI agent, and the window glass of the driver's seat was smashed by a baton.
"I'm an FBI agent, don't get excited, I have papers on me." Jimmy shouted. Eventually, the NYPD reacted and instructed Jimmy to come out with his papers, "I want to get my papers, don't shoot." FXXK, take a look at the station wagon just now, the driver is still there!! ”
Jimmy reached into his suit with his right hand and took the ID out, handed it to the NYPD who smashed his car window, the police officer looked at the ID and then at Jimmy, "Get out of the car." ”
Jimmy got out of the car with his hands raised, "I have a weapon on me, don't touch my gun." ”
"Turn around and put your hands on the roof of the car. Wait. The NYPD officer took Jimmy's ID, left two steps and pressed the walkie-talkie, and began to contact the dispatch center.
"Somebody help me see if the driver of that car is still there!" Jimmy honestly stood next to the car with his hands on the roof, and he couldn't turn his head, so he could only call out to the NYPD people to check it.
"There was no driver in the car, and it should have run into a residential area. Some colleagues have already gone after him. ”
Jimmy's brain is buzzing, this is what the TM does.
"Check, Agent Jimmy, sorry. Responsibilities. ”
Jimmy turned around and retrieved his papers, "You guys immediately surround the area, contact the dispatch center and your police officers, and determine the whereabouts of the driver in that car, who is suspected of a murder." ”
The NYPD officers surrounding Jimmy were also embarrassed, and they immediately dispersed and chased after him according to the location of the police officer who was chasing the driver.
Jimmy doesn't know where to chase people now, so he can only follow the NYPD people in the alleys. Fortunately, the FBI's mobile phone is more shockproof and fall-proof, and Jimmy can still call Chris to report the current situation.
Chris was also speechless, he had already notified the NYPD dispatch center that an agent was chasing a suspect, and Jimmy was still arrested as a suspect.
That is, Chris notified the dispatch center, and the NYPD officers could confirm that Jimmy's identity was normal so quickly, otherwise it would have taken at least a few minutes just to contact the FBI Manhattan office.
While Jimmy and the others were tracking down the driver, the NYPD contacted a tow truck to tow Jimmy's car and the station wagon away and restore traffic, and Chris arrived at the scene ten minutes later.
Jimmy and the others are still investigating the whereabouts of the driver in the block, and it is certain that he should be hiding in these residential buildings, but the embarrassing thing is that Jimmy did not see the driver's appearance, and the police chasing the driver behind him can only determine that it is a white man with short curly hair, because they can only see the back, so they can't determine the driver's appearance.
I can only wait for Chris to arrive before starting to check the residential buildings. And it has to be Chris, otherwise there is no way to tell who is the driver just now.
Fortunately, with the assistance of several NYPD police officers, under the leadership of Chris, the driver was finally caught. It took a long time, almost 1 hour, and finally arrested someone from his house at the signal of a resident's eyes. Fortunately, there were many people, and the driver gave up armed resistance after weighing it, and finally put down his pistol and raised his hand to surrender.
Jimmy and Chris thanked the NYPD officers for their cooperation and took the driver back to the FBI office in Chris's car, not directly to the detention center because they needed urgent interrogation.
Chris found someone to accompany him in for interrogation, Jimmy had his own task, he picked up a car from the administration department, and took a team of forensics to the police parking lot, and the investigation of the station wagon was handled by Jimmy, and the two men went their separate ways.
Jimmy came to the police parking lot, first went to find his car, he had a full set of equipment in the trunk of his car, he had already reminded the NYPD when he towed the car before, they kept it very well, and a police officer specially accompanied him to the parking lot to watch Jimmy's car, and the service attitude was really good. Of course, the main thing is to avoid Jimmy complaining about them, and being held at gunpoint by a group of police officers is not a good memory.
Jimmy moved all his equipment to the new car, and then went to the location of the station wagon, where two members of the Identification Section began a full inspection of the station wagon and extracted evidence.
The whole car is taken from multiple angles, especially the front bumper, when Jimmy was in the PIT, the station wagon did not hit other cars or obstacles with the front of the car, theoretically it is still necessary to compare the indentation of the rear bumper of the investigative reporter Ace according to this bumper, which is also the most important reason why Jimmy is looking for this car.
The second is the things in the car, including the items in the car, the fingerprint traces of the steering wheel and other parts, whether there are blood stains in the car, etc., because the case may be very serious, so this time there are no steps saved, and all the evidence needs to be identified and retained.
Jimmy stood aside in a daze, there was a professional team for on-site investigation, so he wouldn't join in the fun, so as not to cause problems.
"Jimmy, come and see."
Jimmy came to the station wagon and looked at the position pointed by the forensic officer, FK, Jimmy saw that the round pipe was not calm, no one was afraid of ordinary pipes, but if there were wires connected to the tube, the professionals would tremble.
Jimmy: "Is this the kind of thing I was thinking?" ”
The forensic officer nodded: "Quite possibly, I think we need a bomb disposal team to deal with it." ”
Jimmy: "Call them, now, right away." Let's get out of here first. ”
The forensic officer nodded, and the two men took their toolboxes and followed Jimmy back to Jimmy's car, about 20 meters away from the station wagon.
Jimmy looked at the station wagon with a toothache, it was so embarrassing today, first he was pointed at gunpoint by the police, and now he found that the car he was chasing had a bomb strapped to it, if he really blew it up while Jimmy was chasing the car, he would be dead.
Jimmy picked up his phone and dialed Chris's number: "Chris, there are several suspicious tubes tied to the bottom of that station wagon, suspected of being a bomb, and now the bomb disposal team has been contacted to come to support, ask clearly when you interrogate over there, what the hell is going on?" Who TM would put a bomb on their car? ”
Chris was also stunned and put a bomb on his car? Is this man looking for death? Still racing in the city to escape? One accidentally lost his bones.
Chris hung up the phone and returned to the interrogation room again, and the suspect driver did not answer any questions or even ask to call a lawyer. Now he is still in the time when he has just been captured, when the will to resist is the strongest, and Chris also knows that he needs to grind slowly, so he didn't have any means before, just regular inquiries.
Chris originally planned to follow the normal interrogation steps, but now, it seems that no means can be used, and when the on-site bomb disposal team confirms that the bottom of the car is indeed a bomb, this is not a murder case that can be solved, but directly rises to the category of terrorist attacks.
Chris continued to ask, of course, without any answer, he casually beckoned the recorder to go out with him, and the suspect driver was left alone on the table and left in the interrogation room.
Jimmy and the others waited for half an hour, and the FBI bomb disposal team arrived, and a bomb disposal officer quickly dressed up, put on a thick blast suit, put on an explosion-proof helmet, and walked to the station wagon.
He squatted on the ground and looked at the tube under the car, then went straight to the ground and got under the car, then turned around and lay on the ground and began to check the tube.
Jimmy came to the bomb disposal team's car and listened to them talk about the style of the bomb and how to deal with it, and it was obvious that Jimmy was frightened, but the bomb was a half-finished product.
After the bomb disposal team had removed the bomb and put it into a special blast barrel, the bomb disposal crew took off the bomb suit and explained the situation to Jimmy.
There was a false alarm, the bomb under the car was actually just a bomb detonator, which contained explosives, but it was not very powerful, and at most it would destroy the car. But the bottom of the car has been modified, there is a tube linked to the rear seat, if you store large bombs in the back seat and trunk, you can also use this semi-finished product as a detonator, structurally, there seems to be a vacant space here for signal control devices, such as fixing a telephone or wireless device.
Strictly speaking, this car is a bomb shell, and you only need to put the bomb body in it, and then install the trigger to make a super bomb.
Jimmy listened carefully to the bomb disposal officer's explanation, which he needed to go back to relay to Chris, although the bomb disposal team would issue a report later, but time was running out.
Now that the bomb had been defused and the forensic bureau colleagues were able to continue, Jimmy took a sketch of the bomb disposal team, thanked them, and escorted them out of the police parking lot.
While the Forensic Section had finished processing the wagon, Jimmy returned to the office with him, found Chris, and handed him the sketch.
Jimmy: "The bomb disposal team has confirmed that this is the detonation mechanism of a giant bomb, and this is the rough design. What we caught this time was definitely a big fish. Did he confess? ”
Chris: "That guy is a diehard, he hasn't said a word until now, his fingerprints haven't been found in the criminal database, and I've just taken the photo to check the photo database in the hope of finding his identity." ”
Jimmy came to the interrogation room and looked through the one-way glass, the suspect was white, with stubble on his face, according to the condition of the stubble, he should have not shaved for two or three days, and he was a big beard with short brown curly hair, which was really not obvious.
"Have you tried contacting ICE?" Jimmy asked Chris back.
Chris: "You mean, he could be an immigrant?" ”
Jimmy nodded: "Well, to do something like such a terrorist attack, I always think it may be related to South America or the Middle East, think about it, there are only these two directions that have such a big enmity with us." ”
Chris: "Okay, I'll go to Hughes, we can't contact ICE directly, DHS still wants him to come forward." ”
Jimmy: "So what are we going to do now?" Just waiting? ”
Chris: "There's no way, there's no authorization, a lot of means can't be used, and if he really resists and doesn't speak, he will have to be transferred to the detention center later." ”
Jimmy: "So how do you do that?" Who gives the authority? Looking for DHS directly? ”
Chris: "Well, this time the problem is very serious, although the big bomb was not found, but the detonating device has been found, I think this case must be raised, at least the joint case is required." It's up to Hughes to decide, and to be honest, I haven't had such a big case in more than 30 years, and I don't know how to deal with it. ”
Jimmy nodded, he really didn't have much experience with bomb attacks, but there was a high top when the sky fell, and DHS, which had just been established, happened to be that tall.
Contact Chris to deal with it, and Jimmy returns to his place and starts writing the report. This time I was reimbursed for a car, and I also need to write an accident description to the administrative department, and replace a car, which is really unlucky, and this is the first time I have changed the car?
I didn't have so many times when I was a county police officer before, but since I came to the FBI, I first had a record of changing two cars a day in Dallas, and it didn't take long for me to become a regular, and the car was reimbursed, so did I simply apply for a car with a crash bar?
Forget it, it's only been a few months, and it's a bit too much to specialize now. However, a car radio is still necessary, and it is a bit troublesome to talk by phone today, and the key is that there is no way to contact the NYPD, and the misunderstanding has arisen.
Grinding and chirping wrote a report, Jimmy rushed directly to the administrative department to apply for a car modification, and then it was rejected. It's better to honestly drive an ordinary car, custom accessories are not something you can do, go back and talk to Chris, let him help apply for it, anyway, it seems that Chris is also easier to talk, and it is estimated that the face is a little bigger over there.
One thing to say, today's car chase made Jimmy ruthless, if it wasn't for the NYPD in the end, this time it was definitely the perfect PIT, and it would definitely be no problem to turn around at the intersection and arrest the driver. Since becoming the FBI, he has rarely had the opportunity to be so happy, because usually whether it is a search or an arrest, it is basically intelligence first, and the search is directly fixed.
The last time they supported Ryan in the field office, they still took a helicopter to the target location, and they didn't participate in the ground chase at all, which is a pity. This time Jimmy felt like he was back to two years ago, with police lights and sirens on the road unscrupulous, and the suspect was directly overturned and arrested without stopping, which was much more refreshing than the fuel consumption of the car like he watched the NYPD.
Chris's side is also very smooth, before contacting the DC headquarters, there was also a lack of clues, did not start a joint investigation, and now the bomb detonating device was found in the suspect's car, this is no longer a trivial matter without clues, but a major event that has risen to the level of a terrorist attack, but the headquarters has not planned to notify DHS directly for the time being, but first transferred a team of investigators from the headquarters to cooperate with the Manhattan office to deal with it, saying that it is cooperation, and it is estimated that the dominance will be taken away by them after arriving in Manhattan.
