Anne Foster, unmarried, unsuspected, lives in Manhattan's East Village, not far from Jimmy, and has her family information registered in the system, although her family is not in New York.

Jimmy also dialed her phone number, which was turned off and could not be reached.

Because Anne doesn't have any criminal record, all Jimmy can query is basic information, including personal information, driver's license and other information, if you want to continue to investigate bank card information, you need authorization from above, this case is not a homicide team case, privately investigating the privacy information of specific people is a violation, Jimmy doesn't want to overturn on this for the time being.

As for going directly to the scene to investigate, it is not very convenient. It doesn't make sense for an FBI agent to come to the door just to determine if the person is at home, and the FBI comes to the door to cause very bad associations from other people.

After thinking about it, Jimmy called Nia directly and asked her to help investigate the NYPD database, and by the way, contact a nearby patrol officer to check her residence.

Nia checked the information, frowned at the monitor, picked up the phone and asked, "Is there anything wrong with this person?" ”

Jimmy: "Just to make sure she's missing, a friend asked me to help me make sure, but her phone can't be reached." ”

Nia: "We've been together for three years, how did I not know you still have singer friends?" ”

Jimmy sighed, "I'll explain it to you when I get back, help me find a patrol officer to come to the door." ”

Nia: "Alright, I'll wait for you to give me an explanation. A singer, or a jazz singer, I've never seen you hear jazz. ”

Jimmy hadn't really listened to much jazz, and Isaac and Woody at his bar really liked it, and they had been there a few times before an old jazz club had reopened.

Nia didn't delay anything, she checked Anne Foster's address, and then contacted a familiar patrolman, just need to adjust the patrol route, anyway, the patrolman will drive around the street every day, and it won't delay to take a look at a place.

Patrol police door-to-door welfare inspections are routine business, and if someone calls the police, they can arrange for the police to deal with it, and their reasons are easy to find.

Soon, Nia received a call from the patrol police, Anne Foster was not at home, and asked the neighbors next to her, who had not seen Anne for several days, and thought she was on a business trip or a trip.

But it wasn't entirely rewarding for not seeing anyone, as her neighbour offered Anne a place to work, a jazz club in Greenwich Village, where she occasionally performed, and was quite popular.

Anne is not an ordinary resident singer, but a well-known jazz musician, and has released two jazz albums, but she is definitely talented, and she has a good relationship with her neighbors.

After Nia and the patrol officer confirmed the situation, they thought about it and went straight to Jimmy's office.

Jimmy was still surprised when he saw Nia coming, he said on the phone just now that he would explain it to her in the evening, why can't he wait for so long?

Nia looked at Jimmy's office, he had moved to the original position of Mahon, and the other two offices were still vacant, "You are the only one in this office?" ”

Jimmy shrugged: "The newcomer hasn't been arranged yet, this time is too chaotic, and it can be arranged when Ruiz comes up." How did you get here? ”

Nia: "Look what the hell you're up to, why are you going to see that Annie?" ”

Jimmy: "Did your guys check?" The result? ”

Nia: "No one is home, the phone can't get through, and the neighbor says he hasn't seen her in a few days. ”

Jimmy nodded slightly, it seemed that his guess was correct, and now it is more and more likely that the identity of the victim of the corpse shredding case will be found.

Jimmy turned on the computer and called up the case information, "Take a look at this case, it has been put on hold by you for the time being, but it has not been handed over to us." ”

Nia glanced at it: "I haven't seen this case. As she flipped through the information, Nia's face became worse and worse, especially the photos of the corpse crushing case, some of the rotten corpse parts were indeed not very good-looking, and the impact on people was still great.

Nia: "How do you know who you are?" ”

Jimmy: "I've seen a similar tattoo before, so I took the time to look into it. ”

Nia: "Are you sure?" ”

Jimmy: "Not yet, I was thinking I'd let you take over if I got the case done." The tattoo artist checked his client records, and there were not many clients with leg tattoos, and two of them could not be contacted, and Anne was one of them. ”

Nia: "What about the other one?" ”

Jimmy: "The phone number has been cancelled, and I can't be contacted, and I can't determine who it is, only the name." ”

Nia: "So what's next?" ”

Jimmy: "We have to identify ourselves first, or find Anne Foster first." ”

Nia glanced at the screen, got up and left Jimmy's desk: "Forget about this case, there are no clues at all, it really has to be dealt with, it must take a lot of time, it's not worth it." ”

Jimmy smiled and said, "This was originally for you, if you don't want to take on this case, forget it." Drink tea, you're not in a hurry to go back, are you? ”

Nia looked at Jimmy's skillful tea, "Or, let's prepare a set for you at home." ”

Jimmy: "No, you just have to rest well at home, you use a glass cup for tea, this kind of kung fu tea is too troublesome, so it's okay to use it in the office." ”

Nia: "Well, if you have some snacks, you can have afternoon tea here." ”

Jimmy: "Snacks aside, this is an office after all." But yes, I'll get some nuts or something. ”

Nia drank two cups of tea and got up to leave, it's still work time, so don't be so blatantly fishing.

Jimmy didn't clean up, and continued to sit and drink tea, Nia didn't want to take the case, so forget it, and there was no need to continue the investigation.

It's just that one person is missing, too many people go missing in New York every year, not bad for this one, the case of the disappearance of the four college students that Nia told Jimmy before has not yet been resolved.

However, Jimmy had no idea that he would really cause them trouble by asking Nya to arrange for someone to visit Annie's home.

The jazz club had been unable to contact Anne for a few days, and the day after the patrol left, someone was arranged to come to Anne's house to look for her, but of course no one was found. The neighbor said that the police came and couldn't find anyone, so the club called 911 directly to report to the police, and their partner was missing.

In this way, the case came to the NYPD again, and after communicating with each other, Nia's arrangement for someone to investigate was still known to others, and the disappearance case was in her hands again.

When Nia came home at night, she hit Jimmy directly, and although it didn't hurt, she still had to let out this breath.

The disappearance case is not a big problem, relying on the current information to confirm with her family and friends, and then investigating the ticket information and the like, in most cases, the case can be closed, even if there are no clues.

But the disappearance was led by the shredding of corpses, and Jimmy's previous judgment was that the body pieces were probably Annie. If you don't take over the case, forget it, since you have already taken over, it will always have to be dealt with, which means that this corpse shredding case will continue to be investigated.

Jimmy was a little hairy at first beaten by Nia, and when he knew the reason, he was speechless. His original plan was that if he found a suitable clue, determined the identity of the deceased, and determined the direction of the case investigation, he would give it to Nia later, and if he couldn't find a suitable clue, he would give up directly, so as not to make it difficult for Nia, but now it seems that his plan has gone wrong again.

Jimmy: "I'll investigate, I just haven't had any cases lately." ”

Nia gritted her teeth and looked at him: "What you provoked, of course you have to join." Do you have any plans? ”

Jimmy: "You contact Anne's family to make sure, and if there's no clue, ask them to come over and do a DNA test." ”

Nia: "What if it's really her?" ”

Jimmy: "At least we can give them a definitive message without having to wait for years." As for the corpse shredding case, there are too few clues now, and it is likely that there will be no result in the end. ”

Nia: "Well, that's all there is to it. ”

The next day, Nia went back to the office to contact Anne Foster's family, and Jimmy went back to the office to investigate the information, in addition to Anne Foster's information, but also the information of the club where she performed.

Just as he was getting ready for the FBI office, Jimmy saw David who had just walked out of the elevator with a bandage on his right arm and hanging around his neck, looking as if something was wrong with his arm.

Jimmy stopped David: "David, what's wrong?" ”

David shook it with his left hand: "A little accident, I was injured when I arrested the suspect, it's okay." This may seem serious, but it's just a matter of fixing it and recovering as soon as possible. ”

Jimmy: "The smuggling case?" ”

David nodded: "That's right, weren't there three people missing during the previous investigation, one of them has been found, there was an accident when he was arrested, but he has been caught, and now he is waiting for the results of the interrogation." ”

Jimmy: "Congratulations, it looks like this case will be over soon." ”

David: "Well, that company is very problematic at the moment, there are several people in their company who have gangster backgrounds, and the gangsters used their company's identity to get import permits, and transported materials and finished furniture from Southeast Asia, and the drugs were wrapped in the wooden frame of the furniture.

We investigated their previous clients and also found a hollowed-out wooden frame on one of their couches. ”

Jimmy: "Did the Black Diamonds do it?" ”

David: "Well, they are one of them, we will talk when the case is resolved later, I will go to work first." ”

Jimmy: "Goodbye, get some rest." ”

David was in the anti-terrorism team before, and he faced potential terrorists, so it stands to reason that his combat ability should not be weak, but now it seems that the person they went to arrest is not low. This time they just grabbed one person, and they actually injured their right arm, and it seems that the person they are facing this time is not low.

However, Seventeen's inside line seems to be somewhat unqualified, such a major matter was not notified to Ruiz at all, this is still Jimmy's case accidentally discovered, if it weren't for the help of the people in the forensic department, it is estimated that they are still smuggling normally.

As Jimmy drove the car, he thought about it, and this smuggling case was weird no matter how you looked at it.

Did Seventeen really not know that they were smuggling like this? The address of that warehouse was not discovered by Louis, but was contacted by Louis when he was looking for Marco, that is, it should be the warehouse where Seventeen took Luis to it.

Here are two smuggling cases, one is Marco and they smuggled luxury goods and perfumes, and the other is the gang using the name of the company to import furniture, are these two cases related to Seventeen?

An FBI agent who has been undercover in the gang for many years is involved in the smuggling of luxury goods and smuggling drugs in a completely different meaning, one is just to cover up the identity of the less harmful smuggling activities, and the other is a complete drug dealership.

Jimmy parked his car on the side of the road, went to the coffee shop and bought a cup of coffee, and just stood by the car drinking his coffee, watching the flow of people and traffic. Would you like to talk to Ruiz? Did they think of this?

It's a bit tangled, this is a very serious accusation for an undercover agent, if in the end the investigation he is not the mastermind or the main participant, but he didn't report it because of insufficient intelligence, then it's okay, once it is confirmed that Seventeen is directly involved, then he will be completely finished.

Not only will Seventeen face legal action, but there will also be a lot of pressure on the FBI's side, whether it is public opinion or internal investigation, it will be very troublesome, and it is possible that Ruiz will also be dragged into the water, because Seventeen is directly responsible for the docking.

Ruiz is not officially in the position yet, and this point in time is very critical, and if someone is doing something here, it could have a serious ripple effect later.

Jimmy drank his coffee, threw the paper cups in the trash, got in the car and turned around and headed back to the office. There is no hurry to investigate the disappearance and corpse mutilation cases, and the most important thing is to deal with the big internal troubles first.

Jimmy didn't go straight back to the office, but called Ruiz when he was nearby, "Ruiz, are you free now?" ”

Ruiz: "I'm in the office, you can come over." ”

Jimmy: "No, I'm out there and I want to talk to you face-to-face, about Seventeen. ”

Ruiz: "You don't have to follow this case, David will take care of it." ”

Jimmy: "No, it's not the case, it's his identity and what happened next......"

Ruiz interrupted Jimmy directly: "Needless to say, I understand your thoughts, David will take care of it." Jimmy, trust your colleague's ability to handle things, although you found out about this case, but now it has been arranged for David, and he has full authority to handle it. Have more questions? ”

Jimmy choked on Ruiz's words and didn't know what to say for a moment, "Okay, I see." Let's hope he's doing well. Goodbye, Ruiz. ”

Ruiz: "Goodbye." With that, Ruiz hung up the phone. (End of chapter)
