529 Disclosure = Trouble
The next day, Jimmy grabs a bottle of champagne with a wine box from the wine cabinet and takes it to the Counter-Terrorism Bureau. Knocking on the door of Catelyn's office, Catelyn glanced at Jimmy and beckoned him in.
Jimmy: "Thank you, Director Caitlin. This is a gift for you. β
He smiled and placed champagne on Catelyn's table, who looked at Jimmy with an eyebrow, "What happened?" β
Jimmy: "Nothing, just thank you." β
Caitlin: "Thank you for a reason, you didn't say it last night." β
Jimmy: "Good news for you, now, we're just friends, not colleagues. β
Caitlin stood up abruptly, pressed her hands on the desk, her otherwise calm face suddenly tensed, "What did you say?" β
Jimmy pressed down on his hand, "Don't get excited, calm down." I left the CIA. β
Caitlin squinted at Jimmy, calmed down a little, the expression on her face slowly changed, and after thinking for a while, she sat down, "Sit, let's talk, what's going on?" β
Jimmy: "I've come out of the CIA, and the file has been deleted, so that file on your side won't be there anymore, it's gone." β
Caitlin: "So, the archives are empty, right?" It seems that your losses this time should be significant. β
Jimmy nodded, "Quite a favor, and more than one or two, but the result is good, I don't have to worry about being a two-faced person anymore." β
Caitlin: "Can I see why?" β
Jimmy turned his head to look at the cabinet in Caitlyn's office, there were several glasses and half a bottle of bourbon on it, it seemed that Caitlyn usually had a drink after work, "Have a drink?" β
Caitlyn didn't refuse, turned around and took two glasses and poured two glasses of whiskey, Jimmy clinked glasses and took a sip, "Remember the last mission?" β
Seeing Caitlyn nod, Jimmy continued, "I'm from the CIA, and if there's nothing special, I can still continue to lurk, after all, this identity doesn't affect me much.
The last mission exposed me a little, and although it wasn't completely exposed, I still have to think about my future life. It's important to have an identity that can be made public, to be shared with family and friends, and if they find out, I may be removed from the list. β
Caitlin: "So it was the last time I contacted Hughes that caused him to suspect your identity?" β
Jimmy: "That's all in the past, and the most important thing now is that I'm free." Cheers. β
Caitlyn touched him again and took a sip, "So, you took the file to destroy it?" β
Jimmy nodded: "Well, don't worry, although we are no longer colleagues, at least we are still friends." β
Caitlin: "Alright, friend. OK, I've got the answer, so be it for today. β
Jimmy: "OK, goodbye, Caitlin. β
Caitlin: "Goodbye. β
Jimmy knew that Caitlyn needed to digest the news, so he didn't delay any longer, and left Caitlin's office directly, driving downstairs and back to the office.
In the afternoon, Jimmy called James and Nia in advance to meet for dinner in the evening, this time in Chinatown, a Cantonese restaurant, but Jimmy had to pick them up after work.
Jimmy takes James and Mary to the dining room, where Nia is already waiting for them. James was obviously more interested in Nia than Jimmy, and after the order, they kept chatting until the food was served.
To be honest, watching James and Mary talk to Nia very happily, Jimmy is still very happy, after all, they are the people he cares about the most, and it is a good thing to have a good chat, but it seems that James and Mary have never been so happy in front of him, right? At least not in my memory.
The taste of Cantonese cuisine is still very suitable for these old and beautiful, siu-mei platter and baked shrimp are Nia's favorites, James and Mary have a good impression of crispy chicken, as for Jimmy, his favorite is conpoy lotus leaf rice and kale fried fish floss, well, mainly rice, the staple food, usually at home when eating dinner will be relatively less, it is rare to eat such a positive taste.
James and Jimmy probably chatted, because Jimmy was in the house with a lot of time off because of his current career, and Jimmy who worked in the internal affairs department had significantly more time off than before, so they wanted to schedule the engagement ceremony in the near future, and of course this would be a month or two later.
Nia had already told her family in advance, so this weekend, James and Mary would go to Nia's house with Jimmy, and then Jimmy would be able to get out, and James would have a good chat with Kevin Miller, which had little to do with Jimmy.
During the dinner, Jimmy's phone rang, he glanced at it, said to the others, left with the phone, and came to a quiet place to answer the phone: "Hey, how are you doing over there?" Mahone. β
Mahon: "It's going well, and I'd like to arrange for Pam and Cameron to return to Chicago." β
Jimmy: "Are you sure you're safe?" β
Ma Hong: "Well, no problem. β
Jimmy: "OK, I'll arrange it." β
Ma Hong: "Thank you. β
Jimmy: "You're welcome, when are you going to return to Manhattan?" β
Ma Hong: "It should be soon, this side will end soon." β
Jimmy: "Okay, we'll have a drink when you get back." β
Ma Hong: "OK, no problem. β
After hanging up, Jimmy finds Charon's phone number and informs him that he will arrange for Pam and Cameron to return to Chicago, and that he will settle the bill with him at the Intercontinental Hotel later.
Jimmy returned to the restaurant, he saw Ma Hong's phone before, thought it was something, so he didn't dare to answer directly in the position, now it seems that everything is going well, Ma Hong's weakness is his family, as long as this weakness does not exist, he can let go of his hands and feet to do things.
James and Mary were happy with today's dinner, and Jimmy was finally reassured. The reason why he chose to eat was actually a bit risky, he had hardly eaten with James and Mary when he was in Little Rock before, and he didn't know their tastes. Even if I eat Chinese food occasionally, it is fast food.
When I came to New York this time, I naturally hoped to be recognized by them, because French and Italian food were more popular and not interesting, so I chose Cantonese cuisine, which is the most accepted Chinese food in the United States.
After the end, Jimmy sent James and Mary back to the hotel, and the safety of the Upper West Side of Manhattan at night was barely guaranteed, but it was still not recommended that they go out, just go out during the day.
Over the weekend, Jimmy and Nia accompanied James and Mary to Nia's house, Nia's parents were at home, and her grandfather and uncle didn't come, but too many people were a problem.
Jimmy and Nia were just introduced, and they were directly driven away, and the two of them liked to go wherever they wanted, anyway, don't wander around in front of them. In fact, when he learned that James was a former county sheriff, Nia's father, Kevin Miller, was obviously very surprised, and talked much more than when Jimmy came to his house before.
It's okay this way, both men are in the police system, a retired police sergeant and a deputy director, they must have a lot of common topics, and they don't have to worry about being cold.
Jimmy and Nya didn't have much to go to, so after thinking about it, they just went straight to the movies, anyway, they just waited for news, and waiting at home was the same as waiting outside.
When Jimmy and Nia returned to Nia's house in the evening, James and Kevin, the two police executives, were already drinking and chatting in the study, while Mary and Nia's mother were chatting in the living room, looking harmonious.
After dinner, Jimmy and James Marie returned, while Nyoa stayed at home.
James: "Jimmy, the time has been set, and in a month, Kevin will be in charge of the engagement." You prepare, and you will prepare the invitations and distribute them in the next few days. β
Jimmy drove the car and looked at the traffic in front of him: "No problem, I'll go and prepare if it's confirmed, what about you?" Do you want to go back to Little Rock for a while or just stay here in New York? β
James: "Let's go back to Little Rock first, it's been a few months since we left home, go home and have some rest, I'll come early." β
Jimmy: "Okay, then when you go back, I'll see you off." β
James: "No, it's already set for today, then we'll go back tomorrow, you don't have to worry about us." β
Jimmy: "In such a hurry? Well, at least let me take you to the airport. β
James: "Okay, then tomorrow at noon." β
Jimmy: "No problem, I'll pick you up at the hotel then." β
James They are all old people, traveling in the city or something, they are not interested in it at all, and Jimmy fully respects their opinion, since James is going home, let's go back early.
The next day, Jimmy dropped James off at the airport and instead of going straight home, he went to the Intercontinental Hotel. Giving the car keys to the waiter at the door, Jimmy entered the hotel and came to the front desk.
A guy at the front desk who had never seen it bowed slightly and said, "Welcome to the Interstate Hotel, can I help you?" β
Jimmy: "Is Charon here?" Tell him, I'm Jimmy. β
Front desk: "Please wait. The receptionist beckoned to a black suit next to him to take his place, and he walked to the back of the hotel.
Soon, the black brother Charon walked out from behind, and the front desk just now followed him, Charon came to Jimmy, stretched out his hand and signaled inside, "Welcome, Mr. Yang, please come inside and talk." β
Jimmy nodded, followed Charon to a small reception room inside, and after he sat down with Charon, he said, "Charon, thank you for the gift. β
Charon: "Don't be so polite, may I ask Mr. Yang what is the matter with coming here this time?" β
Jimmy: "How's that mother and son?" β
Charon: "I've arranged for someone to be sent to Chicago this morning, and they're all right." β
Jimmy: "Thank you then. By the way, Justin helped me send a large amount of money to the hotel before, which should be enough to pay for this service, and you can just deduct it. β
Charon: "I will, do I need to send you the other money?" β
Jimmy: "Better not, I think you know who I am, it's hard for me to explain that much cash." β
Charon: "No problem, I'll take care of it for you." β
Jimmy: "Thank you, there are some things I'm really not comfortable with. Okay, I'm fine, help me say hello to Winston. β
Jimmy got up after speaking, and Charon also got up and buttoned up his suit: "I will, please." β
Charon accompanied Jimmy out of the hotel, the car at the door had already been driven by waiters, Jimmy always thought they were amazing, it seemed that Jimmy and Charon had been notified to send them the car when they left the reception room, and every time he came to the door, the car would be waiting at the door.
Jimmy shook hands with Charon and said goodbye, took the car keys, and was about to get into the car, Charon's mobile phone rang, and after he answered the phone, he stopped Jimmy, "Mr. Yang, please wait a moment, the manager knows that you are coming, please go up for tea and chat." β
Jimmy blinked, he gave the car keys to the waiter at the door again, followed Charon back to the hotel, and took the elevator to Winston's room. Sure enough, Charon's words were correct, Winston was cleaning the tea set, and it could be seen that his movements were not very skillful.
Jimmy: "Hi, Winston. β
Winston: "Jimmy, please be seated. β
Jimmy sat across from Winston, "Make tea?" Do you want me to try it? β
Winston immediately let go: "You better come." β
Jimmy smiled and took over, boiling water next to him, sorting out the teacups and fair cups here, and scalding them all after boiling the water.
Winston: "Jimmy, I heard you're getting married?" β
Jimmy: "It's just that the proposal was successful, and there might be an engagement ceremony soon." Is it convenient for you to attend? I'm going to write the invitation as soon as the date is confirmed. β
Winston: "Let's forget it, your father-in-law is the deputy commissioner of the NYPD, so it's better not to see him." But I can give you and your fiancΓ©e a gift, I've already contacted someone to come over for your dress, and you can go and measure and choose a style next week. β
Jimmy raised his eyebrows: "It's too troublesome, it's just an engagement ceremony, not a marriage." β
Winston: "It's important to get engaged, too. β
Jimmy boiled the water again, put the tea leaves in the fair cup, brewed the tea, washed the tea, moistened the cup, and smoothly soaked the tea leaves, and poured a cup for Winston and himself, "Please." β
Winston: "I'm not very familiar with this flavor yet. β
Jimmy said with a smile: "Clear tea, especially green tea, is not used to drinking is normal, most of the various drinks we usually drink are tasteful, this kind of fragrant tea with a slight hint of bitterness, in fact, it is very good to drink occasionally." β
Winston: "Well, by the way, I need to confirm one thing with you, I saw your news on the news, so are you going to push you out into the public?" β
Jimmy looked at Winston, his expression had always been serious, and he couldn't see any mood swings, "Well, I have this kind of thought, because of an accident before, I have been transferred from the field department to the internal affairs department, maybe they think I have time now, so some public press conferences and the like, maybe I will participate." β
Winston: "Oh, if that's the case, then you'll need to be a little more careful about your whereabouts in the future." β
Jimmy nodded, "I understand that you're not public, so if it's not something going on, I'll try to come to you as little as possible." β
Winston: "Oh, that's not a problem, we'll take care of a lot of things, it's just that if you're a public figure, some things won't be easy to deal with." β
Jimmy: "It can't be helped, sometimes the leader can't refuse the arrangement. However, I think there are a lot of things that can be considered later, and they haven't really been made public yet. β
Winston nodded, and Jimmy made another cup of tea and divided it between Winston and his cup.
(Consider the follow-up plot, it's been a day recently, and the addition of the leader of the Water Tsai League is also added after sorting out the follow-up.) οΌ
