Nia woke up after more than half an hour, and the doctor's judgment was still very accurate, which is also their experience. Kevin and Jimmy sat right next to her hospital bed, and Nia was clearly thrilled to be the first to wake up and see her family.

Jimmy was the first to notice that Nia had woken up, and he grabbed Naia's left hand and asked, "Nia, how are you feeling when you wake up?" ”

Kevin immediately stood up when he heard Jimmy's words, Nia looked at Jimmy, and then turned to look at Kevin, "Dad, why are you all here?" ”

Kevin: "You've all been shot, how can we not come?" Your mom will be there later. How does it feel? Is there anything uncomfortable? ”

Nia glanced at her right shoulder and shook her head, "It's nothing, don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Kevin: "It's okay, what the hell is going on today?" ”

Nia glanced at Jimmy, then at Kevin: "Today I went to investigate a missing case, and when I came back at noon, I happened to hear gunshots, and there were three patrol officers in a shootout, so we reported our identities and joined, and accidentally got shot when we fired." ”

Kevin: "Was it an emergency?" ”

Nia blinked, "yes, we're just returning to the police station normally." Wait, you want to say this is someone designing me? ”

Kevin: "I just want to rule out this possibility, it's okay, then I'm relieved." Jimmy, give me the lighter. ”

Jimmy was stunned for a moment, and quickly took out the cigarette case and lighter and handed them to Kevin, who took the cigarette and lighter and walked out as he said: "Let's talk, I'll pick up your mother." ”

Jimmy and Nia watched Kevin walk out of the hospital room and closed the door casually before Jimmy sat down, "How's it going?" Does the wound still hurt? ”

Nia shook her head: "The anesthetic effect should not have passed, and it is okay now." ”

Jimmy: "How was it like to participate in a shootout for the first time?" ”

Nia had a bitter face, and the corners of her mouth drooped: "I don't feel good at all, it's completely different from hitting a target, I'm so nervous." I didn't even have time to aim when I fired the gun, so I could only shoot in a general direction. Also, I was so stupid when I was shot that I didn't know what to do, and if it wasn't for the person next to me who pulled me, I might have just lay down. ”

Jimmy: "You stopped shooting when you got shot?" ”

Nia nodded: "Well, after I was shot, I hid in the back of the car until they took me to the hospital." ”

Jimmy breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he was thinking too much, Nia just shot and didn't kill anyone, the psychological pressure would be much less, he patted Nia's hand, "That's good, those two people should have been hit by other people, you can rest assured." ”

Nia: "Well, how are they?" Did anyone else get hurt? ”

Jimmy: "Not injured, as for the two, they have been declared dead on the spot. ”

Nia: "Well, it seems that I'm the unluckiest. ”

Jimmy smiled and said, "It's okay, you are also experienced, and your mentality will be much better in the future." ”

Nia stared at Jimmy, "Is this your experience?" ”

Jimmy: "Of course, I'm experienced, and this isn't the first time I've been shot. Okay, now you can rest and don't have to worry about anything else. ”

Nia: "Okay, yes, that case ......"

Jimmy: "Just hand it over, you don't care what the others do, just have a result." ”

Nia is not in charge of that case, Jimmy will naturally put the corpse shredding case aside, he didn't investigate it to solve the case, just to prepare Nia in advance, so that she can increase her performance, and if her grades are good, she will naturally be promoted and raised, and now she has been shot to recuperate, who loves this case to follow whomever she likes.

Kevin soon returns, and with Nia's mom taking care of her, Kevin and Jimmy can leave in peace. Neither of them is an idler, so they must go back quickly.

Jimmy went back to the office, thought about it, and decided to call Dr. Mary and check the time, by which time she should have finished her normal appointment. Soon the phone was connected, and Jimmy greeted with a smile: "Hi Mary, I'm Jimmy." ”

Mary: "I know it's you, tell me, what's the matter?" ”

Jimmy: "A little thing, that, you know Nia, my fiancée. ”

Mary: "Seriously, I'm still a little busy here. ”

Jimmy: "Well, she accidentally got involved in a shootout today and got a little injured, I'm worried about whether she'll leave any psychological shadows......"

Mary: "Was she hurt for the first time?" ”

Jimmy: "The first time I got a gunshot wound, and the first time I had a shootout like this, and it's still unclear if she killed the two dead gunmen, so I'm a little worried. ”

Mary: "I haven't met her, and I don't know what happened, so if you feel the need, bring her to my studio when she's convenient." ”

Jimmy: "Okay, I'll talk to her later." ”

Mary: "Anything else?" ”

Jimmy: "No, thank you, I'll invite you and Jenna for a drink, well, let's go to my bar." ”

Mary: "That's it, goodbye. ”

There must be psychological treatment arranged by the police station on Nia's side, the shooting, the dead, the few police officers who shot must have to arrange administrative leave, and now I just don't know how Nia's side will arrange it. But anyway, she was shot, and she must recuperate at home for a while.

In the evening, Jimmy collects Nia's things at home, which can be delivered to her house tomorrow, and will still need it when she checks in there. The phone rang, and Jimmy answered: "Ruiz, what's wrong?" ”

Ruiz: "I'm at your bar, let's talk." ”

Jimmy was stunned for a moment, "Okay, wait for me for a few minutes." ”

Jimmy washed his hands, changed his clothes and went out.

What's going on? He'd just met Hughes this morning, and Ruiz knew it?

Jimmy arrives at the bar and sees Ruiz sitting at the bar with a glass of wine in front of him, and it looks like he's probably drunk quite a bit, Woody has just put away the bottle he poured him from.

Jimmy: "Woody, give me a beer." He turned to look at Ruiz, "What's wrong?" You don't look good. ”

Ruiz held the glass and shook the whiskey inside, keeping his eyes on the glass, and did not look up, just a simple "En".

Jimmy took the beer bottle and reached out and patted Ruiz, "Let's go, let's go inside and talk." ”

Ruiz got up and followed Jimmy to the small room, which was not usually open, and Jimmy was not worried about anyone else inside.

Sitting on the couch, Jimmy took a sip of beer before asking, "What happened?" ”

Ruiz: "What are you going to tell me today?" ”

Jimmy was silent for a moment and looked at Ruiz: "About Seventeen, I want to know how much he is involved. ”

Ruiz: "Why? ”

Jimmy placed the beer bottle on the coffee table and sat up straight at Ruiz, "For you." I need to know what exactly Seventeen did, and if it would be related to you. ”

Ruiz didn't speak, picked up the glass and took a sip, put it down and continued to think about things.

Jimmy: "I don't have anything to do with Seventeen, I've just met him, there's no way I'm going to do anything for him." But you...... You have too close ties with him, this case is drug smuggling, if he is just a gangster, then even if we all know each other, we can get rid of them casually, but if his identity is exposed, he will not be the one who is unlucky. ”

Ruiz: "I'm a Kuanti scientist in the same issue as Seventeen. After he said this, he stopped, picked up the wine glass and drank the wine inside, put down the glass before continuing: "He was assigned to another office, but then for some reason, he met the boss of the Black Diamond Gang, and then he was transferred to Manhattan, and he did not sit in the office, but went directly undercover.

I found him after I became the head of the organized crime investigation team and took over the undercover information, and I got in touch again. We've been able to deal with a few families over the years, and some of them are intelligence support from Seventeen. ”

Jimmy: "Well, he can't just be an ordinary informant, as you can probably guess from previous contacts. ”

Ruiz: "Undercover agents sometimes have irregularities, which is inevitable and understandable. It's just that we can't just see their violations, and their credit also needs to be recognized. ”

Jimmy picked up the beer bottle and poured it down. Of course, he can understand Ruiz's words, and he knows that under normal circumstances, undercover agents will definitely do something, but those are the normal business of the gang, at most they are fighting and engaging in underground club money laundering and the like, this time it is drug smuggling, drug trafficking, and Jimmy's most hated gang business.

Jimmy: "I understand it all, I just want to know, Ruiz, you...... There is no involvement. ”

Ruiz shook his head, "I don't want to send my former brother to prison. Jimmy, don't be involved in this. ”

Jimmy sighed, "Okay, I see, I'm not going to get involved in these things. I've not been in the mood to get involved in any cases lately, and Nia was shot while supporting the patrol today, and now I'm upset. ”

Ruiz: "What happened?" Someone is targeting her? Or is it aimed at you? ”

Jimmy: "No, it was just an accident, two bastard boys were walking down the road with guns, and the pistols fell to the ground, which happened to be spotted by the patrol officer on foot, and then there was a shootout. Nia and the others were just passing by, temporarily stopping to support the police. ”

Ruiz nodded: "It's good that there is no shady, okay, it's nothing, I'll go back first." ”

Ruiz got up and walked to the door, and Jimmy got up to go out with him, beckoning someone to help him leave. Ruiz had drunk a lot of alcohol today and didn't seem to be in a good mood, so it was better not to let him drive by himself in this case.

Seeing Ruiz away, Jimmy went to the bar and got another bottle of beer, leaning his arm against the bar and looking at the people in the bar, many times it was interesting to watch life in the bar as a bystander.

Jimmy's bar is okay, most of the people are ordinary people and white-collar workers, there are basically no gang members, and because of Jimmy's identity, Isaac and Woody have strictly controlled the illegal business circulating in various bars, so there is basically no major incident, and there is not much trouble, and the environment is relatively suitable for some people to whisper and chat happily.

If it's the kind of speakeasy or other places with poor security, the people in the bar are really mixed, and if you can't go, you won't go, and it's easy to have an accident.

When the guy who sent Ruiz back, Jimmy left the bar, and Woody, the guy who sent him, would take care of it, so he didn't have to worry about it.

The next day, Jimmy went to the hospital to deliver a small suitcase to Nia, which was full of the luggage he had packed at night, so that she could stay at home more comfortably. Nia's wound is recovering well, and there are no other complications, if there is no accident, she can leave the hospital for another day and go home to recuperate, as long as she comes over regularly to change the dressing.

Attended Peter's party over the weekend, where Peter saw some familiar faces, including Hughes, Ruiz, and Mahon. I have to say that although Peter may be a little indecisive in some aspects, the interpersonal relationship is still running well, and there are several celebrities on the scene, museum directors and the like.

Peter introduced them to his successor Mahon, which was also a gift for Mahong in addition to handing over his position in the white-collar team.

Jimmy stood quietly next to him with champagne in a place where no one was, watching Mahon smile and communicate with the others, it was obvious that he was still quite jerky, but it was obvious that it worked well. Ma Hong's appearance advantage is really big, middle-aged white, with an excellent image, especially for women, and more than half of the people introduced by Peter are professional women.

Hughes walked over with champagne, "Jimmy, did you talk to Ruiz?" ”

Jimmy nodded, and touched a champagne glass with Hughes, "After a brief chat, I promised him not to get involved in the case again." ”

Hughes: "I've got someone to look into a few things, and so far it's fine. ”

Jimmy: "Seventeen, what will happen to him?" ”

Hughes: "He'll be recalled." ”

Jimmy nodded, "I see. ”

Hughes patted Jimmy, "Don't think too much, I understand what you think, but a lot of things...... Let's be considerate of each other. ”

Jimmy raised his glass and touched it with Hughes, and drank the champagne inside, "I understand, Hughes, don't worry about me." ”

Hughes took a sip, nodded, and walked over to the others to chat.

Jimmy beckoned the waiter, exchanged a glass of champagne, and walked over to Elizabeth, "Elizabeth, are you ready at DC?" ”

Elizabeth also watched Peter introduce and chat with Mahone, and it was inconvenient for her to follow, standing alone near the cold dining table, and Jimmy came over to chat just to kill time.

Elizabeth: "Well, we've already been there, and there's an agent to help keep an eye on it, so it's good to stay there for a few days." ”

FK, 4000 words were not completed before 0 o'clock, it was a little late. Another leave slip was wasted this month.
