551 Intelligence arrived
Olivia really helped a lot, the FBI didn't do much to investigate these videos before, just all kinds of accidents were frequent, people were brought out to surround Perkins and deal with the scene today, they couldn't watch the video at the same time in all kinds of messy things.
Now that DHS has less manpower, it is naturally more efficient to import it into the computer and arrange more people to watch it together.
Jimmy and Olivia arranged for the footage to be removed and imported into the system, while Olivia left the command center and headed to Caitlin's office as the director.
Caitlin answered Olivia's question in the affirmative, fully cooperating with DHS and Jimmy's investigation, and as for the reason, she did not say anything to Olivia.
The fact that Jimmy is a former CIA agent is known only to Caitlyn in the Counter-Terrorism Bureau, and her assistant should know some, but definitely not much.
As for Jimmy's network within the CIA, after attending his engagement ceremony, she is also very clear, although she doesn't know where the upper limit is, but he has at least one deputy director behind him, and he is also the deputy director behind his predecessor.
Although she is not from that line, as a senior executive, she also knows that there are absolutely a lot of various dumping incidents within the CIA, and she definitely can't give anyone a reason to mess with herself, so Jimmy's reasonable request she will definitely not stop it, not to mention that this case is the responsibility of DHS Homeland Security, the nominal superior of the Counterterrorism Bureau.
Another reason is that Jimmy's strength is a bit too amazing.
In the past, a squad ambush was dodged by him, and the five-person squad was all buried, Jimmy was only shot once, and this time, although there were only three people, the combination of grenades and bazookas could not help him, only a calf abrasion, which was more fearful than the last case.
As a senior director, Caitlin is very aware of the capabilities of CIA field agents, although she did not really go to the agent training camp to train agents, but if she can be a senior director, she must have been responsible for many, many cases.
Jimmy's combat ability has completely surpassed that of the top agents she knows, and even in her memory, no agent can withstand such an ambush, including Byrne, who has not been caught so far. Byrne is just hard to catch, he was shot directly into the Hudson River when he came to New York and escaped, and if he had Jimmy's ability, he could probably kill the Counterterrorism Bureau directly from downstairs.
No matter what the reason, Caitlin has no intention of offending Jimmy and the people behind him, and if it doesn't involve herself, the people below just cooperate well, and don't spend their own money anyway.
Olivia had already gotten the authorization she needed to fully cooperate with Jimmy and DHS within the scope of her authority, so she directly arranged for backup personnel to join the ranks of video screening.
The photos of the four people killed in the hospital and the female killer have been provided to them, and these videos are mainly to see the car, and it is difficult to find out the appearance of the people in the car in the very low-precision video.
While Jimmy was working on the video, Ruiz's call arrived: "Jimmy, there was an accident, Francisco Montello, the boss of the Vipers, is not at the club or at his home, and his whereabouts are unknown. Liliana, the head of the restaurant, has been caught and is now being escorted back to the bureau. ”
Jimmy: "Didn't you monitor the Viper boss before?" ”
Ruiz: "The intelligence team had detected that Montero had not left the club the day before, but we searched it inside and found no one. ”
Jimmy thought for a moment, and a previous situation still needs to be reported to Ruiz: "You look for NYPD Detective Chuck, I gave him the address of a villa in Jersey City, New Jersey before, and asked him to investigate." I followed Liliana to find the address, and she went in and talked to the people inside for half an hour before leaving. ”
Ruiz: "Are you sure?" Over there, we're overstepping our authority. ”
Jimmy: "Let's try it, let the monitoring team keep an eye on it first, and you really can't contact the local government to get authorization." ”
Ruiz: "I see, I'm going to contact Chuck." ”
Jimmy hung up the phone and shook his head, the gang boss is not so simple, this guy must have arranged an emergency evacuation plan in the club, I hope to catch it.
Early the next morning, when Jimmy arrived at the Anti-Terrorism Bureau, Bill and Jack, who had arrived early, had already obtained the required video recordings, and were arranging for them to investigate the traffic video at the corresponding time in the command center and find the corresponding car.
"The targets are two cars, a sedan and an SUV, and we have already obtained the license plate number they used at the time, and now we look at the road surveillance, as long as we find their whereabouts, we should be able to find out their safe house very quickly."
Bill explained to Jimmy, and the group all stood and waited for the staff to investigate. The clues are already there, the time for the car to enter the hospital is also there, and the rest is relatively simple, and the video of the intersection in a specific time period is still easy to watch.
Finally, they managed to find the location where the car disappeared, a street in Brooklyn.
Bill directly arranged for Jack to set off with agents from the Counter-Terrorism Bureau to investigate on the spot. Jimmy didn't want to wait here either, and also offered to apply for field work, and Bill nodded in agreement, and they set off with the Counter-Terrorism Bureau's walkie-talkie.
The target street, one left and one right, has two rows of houses, and there are only a dozen houses, so it's not a big problem. Agents from the Department of Homeland Security came forward to deal with major anti-terrorism matters, knocking on doors one by one with photos of people and cars, and quickly identified two houses that were unoccupied, and it was certain that one of the cars had appeared here, and some of them had seen one of the men, but they did not determine which house it was.
Through the database of the New York City government, they obtained the landlord information of two townhouses, the landlord of one of the buildings has been identified, they are just traveling, there are no outsiders in the house, and the information of the other house is found to be registered in the citizen database, which is forged.
That's the big problem, Jack contacts Bill in the Anti-Terrorism Bureau, and then contacts his superiors to get permission, and then directly breaks down the door to investigate, and at the same time collects fingerprints inside the house.
A pickup truck parked in front of the door was also the target of their investigation, and soon, the fingerprints taken confirmed that it belonged to the woman who attacked Jimmy yesterday, that is, Perkins.
The next step was to continue the investigation, the whole investigation process was very troublesome, the before and after investigation and the inspection of the room, fingerprinting consumed too much time, and by the time they determined the car that four of them were in when they came, it was already the next day.
Ruiz's surveillance team has been assigned to Jersey City, but there is no result yet. The address Chuck was given, and Jimmy asked him to investigate it before, so Chuck has a record of this address.
The people of the Viper Gang who were arrested have confirmed that the female killer who appeared for the first time is indeed a waitress in their restaurant, which many people have seen, and by the way, the murder case that Nia is going to do has been solved.
The female killer is the one who did it, and the Vipers who were targeted by Nia and the others were monitored outside at the time, and they did the preliminary investigation. The person who hit Nia is also from the Vipers, and now he has been caught by the FBI, plus the people who were originally in prison.
The first part of the whole thing has been successfully closed, when Nia received a call from the FBI, she notified Chuck to follow up on the case, as for Nia and her family of three, they are still on vacation in Alaska, and they have not received a safety notice from Jimmy's side for the time being, and they are not yet back.
In the evening, when Jimmy and Nia were chatting on the phone, she also complained that their family of three was miserable in Alaska, although the environment was good, but the weather was cold, and there was nothing fun except to see the scenery and various wild animals, the key was to ensure safety, they could not go to crowded places, and could only stay in remote places.
This is also something that can't be helped, Kevin knows all about the case that Jimmy has experienced. Although he is not in New York, as the deputy director, some eyeliners are willing to inform him of the situation at any time, and not one or two people know that Jimmy has become his son-in-law, so the cases involving him must be notified in time.
It can only be said that being the boss is not simple, Kevin didn't put any pressure on Jimmy, but just asked Nia and her mother to stay in Alaska and wait for the final result on the New York side.
When DHS handles terrorist attack cases, they have high authority and high priority, and the ATF immediately mobilizes senior agents for a meeting after receiving the notice of assistance, and then directly casts the net to inquire with their respective informants.
After two days of investigation, they "succeeded" in destroying the warehouses of three arms dealers, adding a little to their own performance. Of course, there are gains, the M72 is decades old equipment, and American arms dealers made a lot of it during the Vietnam War, so naturally a large number of bazookas were lost in the black market.
An arrested arms dealer confessed that they had shipped a shipment two years earlier, including several M72 rocket launchers, and the real identity of the buyer was uncertain, but the place of receipt was in Canada.
As a neighbor to the north of the United States, although Canada is a big country, their relationship with the United States is very unusual, some jokes say that Canada is the northern state of the United States, it is not incomprehensible, and there are even many people who live in Canada and work in the United States.
The arms dealer was caught, and now there are clues to investigate the flow of weapons, and the ATF has also arranged for two agents to come to the Counter-Terrorism Bureau to cooperate with DHS's Bill and Jack to investigate this information.
The weapons crate was found in the dead Perkins car, and the investigation of the weapon crate was going on before, but mainly to investigate the fingerprints and biotraces, and now they have to check the origin of their weapons against the guns and rocket launchers with the cooperation of the ATF, so as to determine where their target came from.
Counterterrorism Bureau (CTA) staff continue to investigate surveillance footage, looking back at the previous movements of several gunmen and Perkins in an effort to confirm whether they had been in contact with others.
After checking the relevant data, they successfully located the whereabouts of the female killer who had attacked Jimmy on the street, and thus found the location of the building under construction, so that the case of the shooting of the security guard there also entered the scope of their investigation.
Because of the relevance of the case, CTA agents re-applied for a search warrant in the name of DHS to investigate the security guard's home, found a lot of cash in a safe, and started with his social connections, successfully linked to a person in the Vipers.
DHS's Agent Bill is now more excited than anyone else, there are not many terrorist attacks after 911, DHS is more about monitoring and dealing with potential threats, and now there is hope to solve a big case, and it has involved many murders and arms smuggling cases, the credit will really be great, as the person directly responsible, he will also benefit a lot in this case.
A number of clues are advancing simultaneously, multiple departments are jointly investigating, and the entire conference room is now full of people, intelligence, and phone calls, which is the same as the vegetable market in the morning.
Jimmy's main follow-up is the line of the Vipers, but he knows that the Vipers are at most helpers, and there is no actual harm, and the most important gang boss has not been caught, and there are no further clues.
After a few days of waiting, Jude finally called Jimmy again. Jimmy answered the phone and spoke to Bill and left the Counter-Terrorism Bureau.
In a café near the Counter-Terrorism Bureau, Jimmy sat in the corner and ordered a cup of coffee, and ten minutes later, Jude also came to the coffee shop, and when he saw Jimmy, he walked over.
Jude: "Mr. Yang, I have good news for you. With that, he opened his briefcase and gave Jimmy a folded piece of paper, then buckled it up and placed it at his feet.
Jimmy took a look at the information and folded it up and put it in his pocket, "Good work, you guys did a good job." ”
Jude smiled and said, "If you're satisfied." ”
Jimmy: "So, what are you going to do?" ”
The smile on Jude's face disappeared, followed by a frown, "We have no plans for the next step. ”
Jimmy: "Now it's a multi-department joint case, all the people who have a relationship with them, all the people who have been in contact with them will be included in the scope of the investigation, if you don't want to be uprooted......"
Jimmy didn't finish, took a sip of his coffee, and just watched Jude think.
Jimmy didn't want to wait any longer, and there was no way to send someone to death: "Okay, I should go back to investigating the case." Goodbye, Mr. Jude. ”
He got up to leave, and stopped when he came to Jude's side: "By the way, don't forget to give me someone who can report the source of the information." ”
With that, Jimmy continued to walk forward, leaving the café and returning to the Counter-Terrorism Bureau.
Jude raised his hand to call the waiter, ordered a cup of coffee, and just sat there and drank his coffee before leaving. Walking down the sidewalk, Jude took out his mobile phone and made a call, then got into his car and headed for the Intercontinental Hotel, the follow-up of which didn't seem to end so easily.
