Father Rodney thought for a moment and asked, "Where are you talking about?" ”

Jimmy: "76 Wharton Street, Bronx." ”

Father Rodney's face changed slightly, looking a little nervous, "Are you talking about the case of the family of seven who were wiped out?" ”

Jimmy nodded, "Yes, does the priest know?" ”

Father Rodney frowned, "You wait here for me for a while, I need to check the files." ”

Jimmy sat down and waited, and after a few minutes, Father Rodney came back with a notepad, "I found it, that building had been exorcised and purified by the priest in charge at the time more than twenty years ago, why did it come back?" ”

Jimmy took the notepad, which recorded the priest's exorcism.

In the '80s, there was a murder in that apartment building, where the husband shot his wife and children after sleeping soundly at night, and then swallowed the gun and committed suicide.

The investigation of the case went well, the gunman committed suicide, and the reason for the shooting of his wife and children is unknown, but the case can be successfully closed, and the house continues to be listed. But since then, there have been two more suicides in that room, making the apartment a well-known ghost building in the neighborhood.

The police were very puzzled by the successive suicides, and after investigating the deceased and finding that they could not find the cause, they asked the priest of the diocese to assist in the investigation.

The priest performed an exorcism after inspecting the room at the police station, eliminating an Earthbound spirit and sprinkling holy water on the room to ensure that the spirit residue was removed.

The priest speculated that the Earth Bound Spirits came from the case of the destruction of the door in the seventies, but due to the passage of time and the change of owner of the room several times, they had no way to investigate the exact source, so they could only record their speculation.

Jimmy: "It's weird, we've been in peace for twenty years, why is there something unusual all of a sudden?" ”

Father Rodney shook his head: "I can't think of it either, I'll communicate with the above to see if I can arrange for someone to come over and have a look." Thank you for the news, Agent Yang. ”

Jimmy: "It's nothing, since you have an arrangement, then I'll go back first." If you want to investigate the scene, can you let me know in advance and I'll take a look? After all, we will have to work together often in the future. ”

Father Rodney thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, and sent Jimmy out of the church before returning to arrange for someone to investigate.

Jimmy calls Kevin to confirm that Alex Green is ready to pay the ransom, and that the NYPD will follow the normal process of tracking down the kidnappers who are withdrawing the money, finding Elliot Green and rescuing him.

Jimmy has also learned about the investigation process of the kidnapping case before, and the police side is similar to the FBI's handling process, the difference is that they can investigate less information than the FBI, and if they exceed the city limits, they have no law enforcement powers, which is more uncomfortable, but generally speaking, in the same city, they still have an advantage, and there are more police officers.

After waiting for a long time, the kidnappers finally came to the place of the transaction, the Bronx Zoo, at 7 p.m.

Sure enough, they left Alex six hours to collect cash, in order to delay until the evening, although the police were large, but during rush hour, if they were actually on the road, it would be difficult for the police to chase the designated car.

Jimmy had returned to the Bronx since he left the church, and was now on his way to the zoo.

Jimmy stopped first away from the zoo, and kept staring at the people around the door, and the place they agreed on was on the sidewalk to the right of the zoo entrance, which could be seen from Jimmy's location, and he believed that the kidnappers would definitely not directly trade this location, and would definitely change places several times in a row.

Sure enough, when Jimmy saw Alex's car coming and stopped on the side of the road, he received a call, and Jimmy immediately looked to the left and right and the building next to him, as long as the person who took the phone was his target.

Soon, Alex started the car and continued to move, and the car radio reported the new trading location, soundscape park next to the Browns River.

Jimmy didn't move, but stared at a man standing by the window in the next building looking out, and when the car radio came out with a new address, he just hung up the phone in his ear, and then walked to the door, and soon came downstairs.

A young white male, who looked to be less than 30 years old, walked to the side of the road and started the car and headed in the opposite direction of Soundscape Park.

Jimmy started the car and followed, all the way to Woodlawn Cemetery in the north.

The man parked the car at the intersection, got out of the car and walked in. Jimmy thought about it and parked his car on the side of the road, there were already some cars parked on the side of the road, so it wouldn't be too conspicuous, and he followed the man into the cemetery area.

Jimmy muted his phone and saw the man sitting on a bench on the side of the road, so he stopped far away to see that he wouldn't move for a while, Jimmy turned back to his car and used the car radio to reconfirm that Alex was not there yet.

Jimmy stared at the man from afar in the car, and soon the police notice on the car radio came back to the new location, which happened to be the current Woodlawn Cemetery.

Jimmy watched as the man had just taken his phone off his ear, and this time it was certain that it was him.

Taking advantage of the fact that he was far away now, Jimmy first came to his car to take a look, and there were two travel bags in the back seat of the car, stuffed with something, bulging, and the others were not seen for the time being.

Jimmy picked up the phone and called the FBI's technical support department, and he needed to ask them to urgently check the license plate information for the car.

Jimmy really misses the tracker a little, in fact, the FBI technical department can also provide GPS positioning equipment, he should apply for one in advance as a backup, and it must be very useful to put it in the other party's car now.

Soon, several disguised police cars drove over, Woodlawn Cemetery has several entrances, and you can drive directly into it, the route inside is also very complicated, watching the disguised police cars turn around the neighborhood, and then they entered the cemetery area one after another, leaving only one car parked not far from Jimmy.

Jimmy could see that they were disguised police cars because he could see the people inside, a car full of two, wearing body armor, which didn't look good from the outside, but for Jimmy they were dressed like this was too obvious.

Now Alex has not arrived, the man inside has walked out and drove away from the cemetery, Jimmy continued to follow to the outside of a baseball stadium not far in front, here Jimmy can't follow, because of the lights, it is still easy to see people here, and there is no parking on the side of the road, if he stops, it is very conspicuous.

The car stopped under a streetlight, and a long wait ensued.

The car radio indicates that Alex has entered the cemetery and is talking to the kidnappers, and Jimmy looks up at the person in front of him, who is also talking on the phone.

Alex got out of the car and opened the trunk, and took out two large travel bags in turn, which were the cash demanded by the kidnappers. The police installed trackers in the cash, and there were two dyed bags inside the travel bag, the kind of dyed bags used in the bank to prevent robbers, which could be detonated remotely.

Soon, three taxis came from outside, and the middle car stopped in front of Alex, who put his money bag in the back seat of the taxi. The three taxis dispersed directly inside the cemetery area, and Alex also got the news that his son was at the skatepark of the gymnasium in nearby Van Klan Park and that he could pick up people.

The three taxis have been followed by the police, but because the police can't follow Alex completely, they are not sure which car the money is.

Alex immediately got into the car and went to the gymnasium next to it, and the police had a clear division of labor, with some people following the three taxis, and the other part following Alex to rescue Elliot, each with their own duties.

Jimmy frowned and looked at the car not far in front of him, strange, their plan would obviously be monitored by the police to everyone, why?

Jimmy struggled for a while, thinking about whether to follow the taxi with the police, and suddenly saw a car coming from behind, parked under the street lamp and the man's car before, a man who looked supposed to be Mexican got out of the car, took out the bag from his car and put it on the man's car in front of him, and then took two bags out of it, and the two cars started to leave.

The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and Jimmy starts the car without turning on the lights, so he follows far behind, and only turns on the lights after getting on the main road, blending in with the traffic.

As they drove a short distance, a police report came over the radio that Elliot had not been found in the skatepark of the stadium and that they were to arrest the three taxis immediately.

Jimmy listened to the news on the radio while driving after the man in front of him, all three taxis were empty, and one of the cars had passengers in it, and he threw the bag out after driving away from Alex's place, and the money was still in the cemetery area, and as for the people, they got out of the car and left after leaving the cemetery.

By the time the police returned to the cemetery area to look for it, it was too late and they didn't see anything.

Jimmy can already make up the complete process, this group of kidnappers' methods are still good, there are no street lights in the cemetery area, the taxi does not stop inside, and others can't see it if they open the door and throw things out, and the kidnappers are very clear about the specific location, so when the police left to chase the taxi, they arranged for someone to take the money bag over, and then change the travel bag with the man in front of Jimmy.

Really smart, choose a good location, use multiple places to identify the police vehicles around Alex, use the dim environment of the cemetery area and three taxis to confuse the vision, and then change people to get money, and then change cars, even if someone later tracks down the car that took money in the cemetery area, what they find is the two travel bags that are spare on it, not the money bags, and there is no way to convict without evidence.

It seems that the judgment is correct, this young man is the person in command of the kidnappers, and now it is up to him to determine where his nest is.

Jimmy called Kevin, and the NYPD was not notified of this news, because now that they had left the Bronx, that is, out of New York City, the NYPD had no law enforcement powers.

Jimmy: "Kevin, how is Alex now?" ”

Kevin: "Very bad, he thought he could find his son, but he didn't find anything. ”

Jimmy: "Where are you?" ”

Kevin: "Police Department, I'm waiting for news, it's very bad now, the money is gone, no one has been found. ”

Jimmy: "I'm following the kidnappers, I've left New York and I'm heading towards Youngx, I'll let you know when I'm sure I'm there." ”

Kevin raised his voice, "Are you sure you're already on track?" ”

Jimmy: "Well, this is the most likely chance to find the kidnapper's den." ”

Kevin: "Great, I'll inform Alex now. ”

Jimmy: "No, I suspect he can't keep it a secret, wait for me to let you know." ”

Kevin: "I see, be careful. ”

Jimmy hung up the phone and smiled, it all looked like it was going to end well.

Yankes is a city northeast of New York, which is also part of the New York metropolitan area, and many people choose to live here. The car in front of it did not drive towards the city, but turned directly in the suburbs, and finally came to a residential area northwest of Yankes, and finally stopped in the garage of a resident.

Seeing the person inside driving into the room with two travel bags, Jimmy began to scan the people inside, there was an adult and a child inside, the adult was sitting in the living room, and the child was lying on the ground, which was obviously not right, if it was a normal resident, it was impossible for a child to lie on the ground like this.

Looking at the surroundings, Jimmy quietly walked over and looked in through the gap in the window, and the child lying on the ground on his side looked sideways inside, and Jimmy couldn't be sure if it was Elliot without seeing his face.

After waiting for a while, and finally waiting for him to change his position on the ground, Jimmy saw that his hands were tied, judging by half of his face, it was probably Elliot, but it was better to confirm it head-on.

Jimmy walked around the house, reaching for the doors and windows, and finding one that could be opened. But now that I'm an FBI agent, isn't it good to go through the window and go in?

Jimmy thought about it and decided to call Ruiz first. He walked a little further away from the house and recounted the current situation, the point being that he had observed Elliot tied up and thrown on the ground, and that he was probably in very bad shape.

Ruiz: "Are you sure?" ”

Jimmy: "I'm not sure if I can keep my hand, I've seen two pistols on the kidnapper's side, and I'm not sure if there are any other weapons yet." ”

Ruiz: "Keeping the child safe. ”

Jimmy: "Understood, I need you to contact the Yankes City Police Department and arrange for someone to come over to deal with the aftermath and the ambulance ......"

Ruiz: "Are you going to wait until the police arrive at the scene?" ”

Jimmy: "No, I want to do it now, they've got the money, every minute is going to be bad for Elliot, there's a good chance they'll get out of here right away." ”

Ruiz: "Understood, let's do it, I'll inform them, you give me the address." ”

Jimmy reported the current house number, and Ruiz hung up the phone when he was sure, pulled out Glock and walked to the house.
