527 Good news and bad news

After Jimmy finished reading the news, he felt bad, took a bottle of whiskey, poured himself a large glass, and poured it hard.

It's a bit troublesome now, and this group of office bigwigs have a good idea, taking advantage of the fact that they are now in the public affairs office, no longer doing field work, and gradually pushing themselves to the front desk, which can be regarded as a reward for running to Florida in the middle of the night.

But it is estimated that Dave and they have not considered it, Jimmy has indeed done a lot of cases before, but many of them are inconvenient to make public, and these TV reporters will definitely not be limited to knowing a name, since they have come to the forefront, the past experience will definitely be dug up, it depends on their ability to dig.

Nia came back from overtime, and as soon as she entered the door and saw Jimmy slumped on the sofa, the smile on her face didn't fall, "Honey, what's going on with the video in the news today?" ”

Jimmy didn't even bother to get up, "It was filmed by them when they were attacked before, and it was broadcast on the news once before, but the name was not broadcast that time."

The bureau suppressed several media interview requests before and refused to let them release their names, so it was stable for a long time. Now that I'm in the Public Affairs Office and I'm at a press conference, it's kind of public information. I regret it, I shouldn't have shown myself in public. How did they find out about this video!? ”

Jimmy picked up the pillow and put it on his face to cover it, "Ah~~" A dull voice came through the pillow, making Nia laugh louder.

Nia sat directly on Jimmy: "Okay, okay, it's already like this, what else can you do?" ”

Jimmy: "I'm thinking about whether or not to take two days off work and wait for this to pass. ”

Nia stretched out her hand and patted Jimmy's face: "Don't think about it so much, I think the media can't just publish these things, there must be other investigations, and they may continue to be broadcast, you'd better go back early and communicate with others." ”

Jimmy's face was loveless, "How bad can it be?" I'm close to being completely naked. ”

Nia: "It's okay, I've seen too much, I don't care if anyone else sees it too." ”

Jimmy pulled her down and fell on top of himself, "You don't care I care. ”

The next day, Jimmy still went to work honestly, but he didn't wear a suit at all today, but changed into his daily clothes and went out with a cowboy hat that he hadn't used for a long time.

Coming out of the parking lot, Jimmy puts on a cowboy hat and sunglasses and enters the elevator. It's a rare look in federal agency buildings, "nice hats." Jimmy smiled and nodded, and came out on the floor of the public affairs office and walked into the office area.

"Morning, Jimmy." The girl at the front desk looked at Jimmy who came in, smiled and said hello, although Jimmy had changed his clothes and wore a hat and sunglasses, but for those who were already familiar with him, it was still no problem to recognize him.

"Morning, Allison." Jimmy raised his hand to say hello, and was about to go in, when he heard Alison, the girl at the front desk, say, "Good figure, quite photogenic." ”

Jimmy almost fell on the spot, no, shouldn't you girls go outside at night? Why do you watch the news?

He didn't reply, waving his hand and walking to his office.

Isabel saw Jimmy arrive in her office, so she got up and walked over, knocked on the door, and said with a smile on her face, "I didn't expect you to be in such good shape." ”

Jimmy took off his hat and let out a sigh of relief, whispered, and then looked at Isabel, "I knew it wouldn't be good after it was made public, who knew they would get all the previous videos out so quickly." ”

Isabel laughed twice and then restrained the expression on her face, "Actually, they already knew, yes, don't look at me like that, what I said is true." ”

Jimmy: "No way, the first video was two years ago, and you were already interfering with them not to release my name?" ”

Isabel: "Oh, you said those videos? It wasn't us who did it then, and you should thank Hughes. ”

Jimmy nodded: "You can probably think of it, hey, I don't know if it will deviate from this public, these journalists have a really strong ability to dig into privacy." ”

Isabel: "Don't worry, if it's not something special, they'll talk to us in advance, even if it's just so they can get more news, they won't just let our people's privacy out." ”

Jimmy clapped his hands, "Awesome, then I'm relieved." What are the tasks ahead? ”

Isabel: "There will be no press conferences in the near future, there will be some public events with other institutions, and a few campus trips. Are you interested? ”

Jimmy waved his hand: "Forget it, I'll stay in the office honestly now." ”

Isabel: "Understandable, okay, I'll see, and I'll let you know if there's an event that's right for you." ”

Jimmy: "Thank you. ”

Isabel left Jimmy's office, picking up the hat on the table and hanging it on the coat rack next to it, and the phone rang.

Jimmy: "Hi, James. ”

James: "Jimmy, we're already at the airport, and if nothing happens, we'll be in New York tonight." ”

Jimmy: "Wow, that's great news, Mary is with you, right?" ”

James: "Of course, we'll go straight from Europe to New York. ”

Jimmy: "No problem, I'll arrange it." I'll pick you up in the evening and the flight number will be sent to me. ”

James: "Well, please. ”

Jimmy hung up the phone and called Tom as well: "Tom, James will be in New York tonight, he is with Mary, when are you coming?" ”

Tom: "Is it today?" I see, I'll call you when I get to New York. ”

Jimmy: "OK, wait for your news, do you want me to talk to James first?" ”

Tom: "I'll talk about it when I get there." ”

Finally, there is good news, and James' arrival also marks the official start of Jimmy's planned engagement ceremony.

Jimmy flicked his fist twice excitedly, and returned to his position to continue looking at the past information provided by the office.

In the evening, Jimmy drove to JFK Airport and waited for James for their flight at the exit wearing sunglasses and a cowboy hat. Because he appeared in a video broadcast on public television, he really didn't have the confidence to appear in any public place as openly as before, and he had to do something to cover it up.

Seeing that James's flight had landed in the flight information, he raised the sign in his hand that had been prepared in advance.

James and Mary came out of the exit and saw Jimmy's sign at a glance, as well as the only one around who was wearing a cowboy hat. After being a county police officer for a long time, James is also very familiar with cowboy hats, although the hats worn by county police officers are not exactly the same as cowboy hats, but this kind of large-brimmed hat is actually similar.

"Hi James, Mary. Long time no see. Jimmy put down the sign and hugged James, and then Mary next to him.

"Jimmy, it looks like you're doing well and you're strong again." James patted Jimmy, who casually pulled the suitcases of the two of them, "Let's go, let's talk about it in the car." ”

Jimmy drove James and Mary out of JFK Airport and headed for Manhattan. Even though it was night, the traffic was still slightly congested.

Jimmy drove and asked, "James, how was the trip to Europe?" ”

James: "Not bad, we traveled around several countries in Europe, tasted the local food and relaxed for a few months. What about you? ”

Jimmy: "It's all right, I told you on the phone that my proposal was successful, and you can meet Nia later." ”

James: "Did you book a hotel for us?" ”

Jimmy: "It's settled, it's not far from my apartment." ”

James: "Okay, now, tell me about your girlfriend, I think I should have found out in advance." ”

Jimmy drove James and them to the hotel, and Nia, who had received the call in advance, also came out of the apartment and waited for them at the hotel door.

Jimmy: "James, Mary, she's Nia, Nia Miller, my fiancΓ©e. Nia, James, Mary. ”

James: "You're Nia, good boy, Jimmy has told me so many times. ”

Nia and James, Mary greeted and hugged, Jimmy took out James and their suitcases from the trunk, and the four of them went into the hotel lobby together, checked James and Mary and went to their room, and put the suitcase down.

Jimmy: "James, you've been flying for a long time, and you're probably tired, so let's rest first, we'll go back first, and I'll come back tomorrow night." ”

The four hugged goodbye, and Jimmy and Nya left the hotel. Since it's not a weekend, it's better to let James and them move around on their own during the day, and talk about it when they're rested.

Jimmy came to the office again with a change of clothes, in fact, because it is no longer in the field, when there is no public affairs to deal with, they do not limit the clothing of employees at all, most of the people in the public affairs office are casual clothes, of course, Jimmy's cowboy hat and sunglasses are still worn.

While reading the information, the phone rang, Jimmy glanced at it, and immediately picked it up, "Hey, Watson, is there any good news?" ”

Watson: "Can you come out now?" ”

Jimmy glanced at Isabel and Mrs. Mason's offices, both of whom were sitting in the office, and said, "No problem, time and place." ”

Watson: "Your cafΓ© not far downstairs. ”

Jimmy: "Wait for me for a few minutes. ”

Jimmy grabbed his hat and sunglasses, straightened his clothes and gun, and left the office. Although he is no longer in the field, Jimmy still habitually carries a gun and a revolver with him, no way, no one knows when an accident will happen, it is better to be prepared than to have no weapons when something happens.

Entering the coffee shop, Jimmy glanced left and right, and found Watson sitting in the corner, he walked straight over, and the waiter next to him also came to order. After the waiter left, Jimmy looked at Watson, "Watson, any good news?" ”

Watson nodded, he took his briefcase from the side, took out a file bag from it and handed it to Jimmy: "There is good news, your headquarters file has been taken out, and the information in the system has been cleaned up." ”

Jimmy raised his eyebrows and took the file bag, he was in a good mood, and said to Watson with a smile: "Great, it will save someone from turning it out again." ”

Watson: "The good news has been said, and now it's bad news. The smile on Jimmy's face disappeared as he raised his hand to stop Watson's words, "Wait, my coffee is coming." ”

Jimmy had been to the coffee shop too many times, he knew their speed, and sure enough, the waiter brought Jimmy's coffee over, "Jimmy, your coffee." Just as she was about to turn away, she said, "You look great on TV." ”

Jimmy was speechless, he had already known not to take off his hat and sunglasses, which was not immediately recognized.

Jimmy took a shallow sip of his coffee and said to Watson, "Now that you can say it, I hope the bad news isn't too bad." ”

Watson: "There are two copies of your information, one from Ward Abbott, one of the initiators of Project Stumbling, but he's dead. The other is from Caitlin Prado, the current head of the counter-terrorism bureau, an acquaintance of yours. ”

Jimmy nodded, "Catelyn showed me my file once before, it was a photocopy, and she did make a copy. Any questions? ”

Watson: "That's the problem, the headquarters materials have been taken out, and if the copy of her side is taken back to the headquarters, our behavior of taking the file will be exposed, and there will be a lot of trouble later." ”

Jimmy: "Can't you just take it?" ”

Watson shook his head: "Caitlin Prado is someone else's person, not all the way with us. The bad news is that you may need to deal with it, no matter what means, take the data away or destroy it. ”

Jimmy: "It's hard, I don't know where she put her or if she copies multiple copies. ”

Watson: "You can figure it out, I need to get back to Langley, there are still some things that need to be put to rest, and the archivist in the fort needs to communicate with him, and it will be much easier if he can stop all the investigations into you." ”

Jimmy: "Okay, I'll figure it out. ”

Watson picked up the coffee cup, drank the coffee, took out his wallet and put a note under the coffee cup, picked up the briefcase and left.

Jimmy just sat there, drinking coffee and thinking about what to do.

Jimmy turned his head to look around, opened the file bag and took out the information to take a look, the action record behind it was indeed empty, Caitlyn didn't lie, the previous cooperation with DIA was indeed to deal with him as an FBI agent.

Catelyn's relationship with him is not good now, he had threatened her once before, and although the matter has been dealt with now, he has not contacted Catelyn again. It's hard to know where to store the data and steal it.

Jimmy finished his coffee, put away his file, put on his hat and sunglasses and left the coffee shop, and returned to the FBI office.

On the last day of June, everyone's expired tickets can be used, no matter who they give to them, it is better than waste
