Gordon's contact with headquarters was not in the conference room, but he left the conference room with his phone and went to find a quiet place. Jimmy was not at all familiar with the people at FBI headquarters, nor did he know who Gordon was or which department he was trying to contact. However, the resources of the headquarters are definitely stronger than those of the Manhattan office, and the ones who can contact Gordon for help must not be worse than Gordon.

Not to mention anything else, Gordon's group of four people has really good abilities, and their analysis and investigation of clues, as well as interrogation, are beyond Jimmy and Chris. Although it is a bit demeaning to say this, this is the truth, and the foursome who can make a special trip from the headquarters to arrange a helicopter to send them over are definitely the people trusted by the headquarters.

Scott didn't care about Gordon's call, still analyzing the existing clues, while Jimmy could only sit in his chair and turn to look at the whiteboard.

Gordon came back after ten minutes, and it seemed that his contact was also not smooth, and his face was a little unpleasant.

Gordon: "Alright, let's rest early today, and we'll leave here tomorrow morning with all the information and evidence." ”

Scott: "Gordon, what's going on?" Why leave? ”

Gordon: "The conditions here are not enough, we will move to the New York branch of the Counterterrorism Bureau tomorrow, which is already connected to the NSA, and this time we have been authorized to directly submit information there, and the three departments will work together to complete the case processing this time." ”

Scott nodded, and it could be seen that Scott in Gordon's group was most familiar with Gordon, and of course could be Gordon's successor, so many times, he was the one to communicate.

When Jimmy heard about the New York branch of the Counter-Terrorism Bureau, everyone was numb. , no, Tom made it clear that he wouldn't touch it.

Jimmy: "Gordon, do I need to go?" ”

Gordon looked at Jimmy: "Of course, Chris has already arranged, and you will handle this case instead of him." ”

Jimmy: "Okay, then I'll go back first, see you tomorrow." ”

Gordon nodded, Jimmy got up and left the conference room, returned to his office, cleaned up, and went straight to work, anyway, no one cares about him now, Chris disappeared very strangely, he didn't give any reason, just met with Gordon, and never appeared again.

Jimmy thought about it and decided to give him a call, but not in the office, but on the way home.

Chris didn't explain why, just told him that he had something to do to leave New York temporarily, and it was expected to take 1-2 weeks, and he would arrange for things to be handled during that time, and Hughes agreed.

Jimmy sighed helplessly, Chris has been feeling mysterious since the last time he did Vince's business, and he doesn't know what he's doing at all, and Hughes doesn't care about it, doesn't it feel a bit too much to let someone who has been a regular for a few months take over a group?

Hanging up Chris's phone, Jimmy dialed Tom's last call again, and without surprise, the phone was turned off, and it seemed that his side of the matter had not been resolved, and it had been a long time since he had been contacted.

This time he is going to the Counter-Terrorism Bureau, Jimmy is most worried about Noah Watson, when Tom mentions this person, that kind of fear is definitely not fake, he has repeatedly reminded Jimmy not to go near the Counter-Terrorism Bureau and the training ground, this time because of a case, he must go.

Jimmy went home, he didn't rush to cook, he first dug out the CIA ID card from the specially carved dents on the bookshelf, he hadn't read it for a long time, and he couldn't remember the information clearly, this time he went to the Anti-Terrorism Bureau, if there was an accident, at least his ID needed to be remembered, otherwise there would be a big problem. There is also the CIA file hidden in the mezzanine, which also needs to be looked at again.

After reading the information, Jimmy put them away again, these things are not in the safe, the security of the safe is actually very questionable, especially this kind of home safe, not to mention, there are professionals on the FBI side who can open it. During the training at the academy, it was specifically pointed out that if there is a search warrant and the evidence to be searched can be put in the safe, and in the case of the owner's non-cooperation, technical support can be applied for, and professionals will open it.

Of course, the contents of the safe should be prepared in advance to shoot the whole process with a camera to avoid disputes, which is all experience, and how many people have planted it in front of it, resulting in complaints or invalid evidence.

So the things that Jimmy puts in the safe are all things that can be seen or not so illegal, and everything else is hidden somewhere else.

Jimmy was in a very bad mood, had dinner, checked the time, and went to the bar next door for a couple of drinks.

The next day, Jimmy packed up his mood and came to the bureau, the materials in the conference room had been almost packed by Gordon and them, although they had not been sure where they lived, but there was no doubt that their passion for solving the case was definitely far greater than Jimmy's, as can be seen from the early arrival at the office every morning.

Jimmy also came in to help clean up, and after putting all the materials into a truck, Jimmy drove the truck they were driving to the Counter-Terrorism Bureau, an address that Jimmy knew very well, he had never been here once, not even from a distance.

Coming to the outside of the CTC, Gordon replaced Jimmy, who led the way, and led them into the CTC first, and then the CTC staff helped take all the materials in the truck to a large conference room.

Jimmy's car and the van were also driven away by the staff and parked in the underground parking lot, where it appeared that they were going on a long-term mission.

Gordon and the five of them began to lay out all the materials in the conference room, and two people came in from the outside, a tall, thin gray-haired white old man, who looked to be in his 50s, wearing glasses, with a lot of wrinkles on his face, and his face was expressionless, followed by a somewhat strong middle-aged man, who looked more like a field agent.

Noah Watson: "I'm Noah Watson, the head of the Counter-Terrorism Bureau, which of you is responsible?" ”

Gordon stepped forward and shook Noah's hand, "Gordon Glenn, head of the FBI's counterterrorism team, this is Scott, Joey, Harry, this is Agent Jimmy Young in the Manhattan office. ”

Noah Watson nodded, and he turned his head to look at the person next to him: "Kerry, call our people to come and listen to the case." ”

Kerry nodded, turned and left the room, Noah sat down, Gordon and the others continued to lay out all the materials, and the footage was also placed next to it, ready to play the content at any time.

Jimmy sorted things out to Noah Watson sideways, although he didn't stare at himself, it still made people feel very stressed, Noah Watson really looked very dangerous as Tom said, cold-blooded, calm, sharp eyes, although he wore rimless glasses, he looked a lot more sven, but that preconceived impression made Jimmy feel as if he was sitting as if he was sitting with a poisonous snake staring at food.

A few minutes later, the CTS people came in, and soon the room was almost full.

Noah: "Agent Gordon, let's get started. ”

Gordon looked at Jimmy, "Jimmy, tell me about it." ”

Jimmy has introduced the case to many people several times, although he is still a little worried about Noah Watson, but now is not the time to think about this, Jimmy still described the situation of the case from the accident to the discovery of doubts, and the situation of getting the notepad from the deceased Ace's girlfriend, and then the projection, the three pages of the notepad with the content written in the notepad are projected on the screen, and the enlarged page content can be seen by everyone in the conference room.

Jimmy's speculation at the time and the follow-up monitoring team's monitoring of Ginny were all explained, and then paused to see if others had any doubts.

Noah motioned to continue, and Jimmy continued to tell about their follow-up investigation, from the vehicle information investigated in the parking lot to the arrested driver Abdul, who found the bomb under his car, to the mobile phone records of reporter Ace obtained from the NSA later, and traced the video of Ace meeting people, all the clues that have been found so far have been told, Jimmy retreated, waiting for the counter-terrorism bureau to digest the case.

Noah Watson looked at the people next to him, and everyone didn't seem to have any doubts about the clues that the FBI already had, and no one asked questions about Jimmy's description.

Noah could only ask himself: "Has the person who met with Ace confirmed his identity now?" ”

Jimmy: "No, we determined that the person entered the parking lot based on the store surveillance next to the café, but because the parking lot surveillance has long been damaged, there is no monitoring at all to determine which car the person got into, so we didn't investigate the parking lot again. Because more than a week has passed, no one can remember clearly.

But we have an anonymous mobile phone number, which is the mobile phone number that reporter Ai Shi contacted him, and the mobile phone has not yet continued to investigate, which is also our next plan. ”

Noah: "What about the Abdul you caught?" ”

Gordon took over: "Now temporarily detained in the detention cell of the Manhattan office, we have obtained two laptops and a broken voice recorder from the warehouse where Abdul lives, one of the laptops and the broken voice recorder are supposed to be journalist Ace's, but the laptop has not been cracked yet. ”

Noah: "OK, these are the two clues we're going to do now. Kerry, you bring someone to bring Abdul over. Fanny, take the laptop to unlock it, and have the technician see if the voice recorder can be recovered. Others, who went to the command center to investigate the person who met with reporter Aishi, started from the signal records of anonymous mobile phone numbers. Let's go. ”

The Counterterrorism Bureau got up, Noah Watson left the conference room, Kerry left with the others, and Gordon asked Joey to accompany him to the FBI's Manhattan office.

A woman in her 30s walked over and took two laptops and the broken voice recorder, and another came in with a large box from the outside, and he said to Gordon, "Agent Gordon, we need to get all of this into the system so that the command center can look it up." ”

Gordon nodded, including transcripts, videos, and various reports, all of which were scanned and transcribed with equipment in large boxes, which showed how professional the CTC's side was. You must know that since Gordon came to Manhattan, he has been checking all the materials in the conference room, basically paper materials and physical videotapes, and there is no such highly integrated command center here in the FBI office, and it is completely a mode in which each group fights independently.

However, Jimmy always felt that the box brought by this person was a little familiar, speaking of which, when Tom applied for Jimmy's identity three years ago, he also brought this kind of box, which was also a bunch of equipment, but the function was not the same as the current person's box.

Is this box still the standard equipment of the CIA? Adjust the equipment inside yourself according to your needs? Tom's level was not low at the beginning, it can be seen from the fact that there is a special person in the Counter-Terrorism Bureau who uses this box, this absolutely professional equipment is not something that ordinary people can handle, Tom can operate it proficiently, it can be seen that he must have done it more than once or twice in the CIA back then, maybe he used to be the role of the little brother in front of him.

Noah Watson left the conference room to make Jimmy a lot easier, he also had time to look around the conference room, but he didn't know that there was a hidden surveillance camera in the corner of the roof of the conference room, looking at the ceiling, the camera couldn't be found at all, it seemed that they were very distrustful of outsiders, and even the conference room inside their bureau had to be monitored.

Jimmy: "Gordon, can we go to their command center?" I'd like to see the investigation on their side. ”

Gordon was also put together by Noah, although it was said that the three agencies cooperated, but Noah's approach was completely that the Anti-Terrorism Bureau took over the case, and their FBI has now become an absolute supporting role. Hearing Jimmy say this, he thought for a moment and said, "I'll go talk to Noah, you guys wait here first." ”

Gordon got up and left the conference room, stopped a person outside and asked questions, and walked to Noah's office.

Jimmy said this on purpose, he just looked around the surrounding environment, this conference room is surrounded by normal office areas, and the place where people gather is on the first floor of their heads, it can be seen that there are three rows of tables in a hall, many people are side by side here, because of the angle, many things are not clear, but it is likely that it is the command center that Noah said.

Now that he has come to the Anti-Terrorism Bureau, it is not a matter to always hide in the conference room, Gordon's face was not right just now, and Jimmy also wanted to see if he could let him come forward, it has not been a day or two since the FBI and the CIA did not deal with each other, if it wasn't for the CIA to make the Anti-Terrorism Bureau, and it has a good relationship with the NSA, maybe the headquarters would not let them come to the Anti-Terrorism Bureau at all, but directly contact the NSA in the Manhattan office.

Gordon came back with an ugly face, he looked at a few people, and finally turned to Jimmy: "Jimmy, you come with me to the command center, Scott, you continue to organize the materials here, and wait for Joey to come back." ”

When Scott heard Gordon's arrangement, his face was not very good-looking, but he still said, "Okay." Jimmy got up and walked out of the conference room with Gordon.

“Nice。” Jimmy was secretly refreshed, sure enough, he was his own person, Gordon was obviously much more reliable than Noah, and he was also more able to behave. Obviously, Noah refused everyone's request to go to the command center, but Gordon still decided to bring someone in, he didn't choose Scott, who had the best relationship, but Jimmy, which showed Gordon's respect for the Manhattan office, and did not let the only representative of the Manhattan office be left out in the cold because of his personal relationship.

Coming upstairs, Gordon and Jimmy entered the command center, and it was indeed the hall that Jimmy had just observed, where everyone had several monitors in front of them, and on the wall in front of them, was an oversized array of monitors, and the information that had been copied from the conference room was already displayed on the big screen.

Noah clasped his hands over his chest and watched as the others investigated.

"The anonymous phone has been turned off, and the last time recorded was in Brooklyn." An employee shouted directly.

Noah: "Investigate the phone's route and locate the last location." ”

"Brooklyn Fifth Street, near Miller Middle School, there are no cameras available nearby."

Noah: "Continue the investigation, determine the previous traces of movement, and call in the traffic camera to locate the person who is repeated. At the same time, the signal trajectory of his meeting with reporters was retrieved to determine whether there were any repeaters. ”

"It takes a long time, there are too many people in the signal coverage."

Noah: "Keep track of the recent records first, and leave the records of the meeting to the others to handle, and you can arrange it yourself." ”

After Noah finished speaking, he turned around and left the command center, there will be no special results here for a while and a half, there is no need to spend it here all the time.

Jimmy watched the conversation between Noah and the staff, and I have to say that he is really envious, they really have a lot of resources, you must know that he needs to go to the NYPD dispatch center to see the traffic camera footage, and the counter-terrorism bureau is directly calling in real time, as well as the previous records, it seems that it is not a temporary call, but has long been synchronized with the dispatch center to monitor the video.
