605 Third shooting
Julia's investigation takes some time, but Will Scott's information investigation is really troublesome, because there are too few materials, only names and photos, there are a lot of people with the same name in the system, Julia directly contacted the VA in the name of the FBI, and enlarged and scanned Will Scott's photo and faxed it to the past.
While waiting for feedback from VA, Julia first contacted the technical department to retrieve the road surveillance of the neighborhood where the Sea Eagle Bar was located, and went back to investigate Joseph's previous surveillance video.
These investigations are very tedious, and they are also what Jimmy used to do, but at that time he had relatively few resources and could not summon the support team, so at that time, he watched the video little by little, and now with his younger brother, Jimmy is finally liberated.
The speed of cooperation on the VA side was okay, and the information had been found the next morning, and after contacting Julia, the fax machine in the office rang, and a file was faxed over.
Julia glanced at it and immediately called Jimmy, "Yang, VA has sent Will's information, when will you come back?" ”
Jimmy: "Did you find anything else?" ”
Julia: "Not yet, no one resembling Will is found in Joseph's whereabouts video. The technical department's surveillance investigation near the bar has not yet given results. ”
Jimmy: "Okay, give me the address, you can come out and meet me, let's go to his address." ”
Julia: "Okay. ”
Julia packed up her things and went out with Will's papers.
Jimmy wasn't in the office, and he took some time to come to church before he had any clues.
Father Rodney of the church had already called him before, but the investigation of the case on his side was at an important juncture, so he could only give up the opportunity to watch from the sidelines, and now that he had time, he came over to talk to Father Rodney, at least to know what was going on in that apartment.
He had reported an anomaly in an apartment building in the Bronx, but the exorcist priest at the church wasn't there at the time, so it took some time. Not all priests can exorcise demons, only exorcist priests who have undergone special training and long-term training, and ordinary priests are just normal outreach believers.
They had already been there two days before, and in the name of the Church, they asked the people in the building to leave temporarily, and they performed a large exorcism ceremony, in which three priests joined forces to remove the unformed evil spirits in the building and the territory it formed.
After the ritual was over, they performed another purification ritual for the people in the infected rooms, which completely solved the problem of the resurgence of evil spirits in the apartment.
According to the records of the exorcism twenty years ago and the situation of this exorcism ceremony, they speculated that the last time the ritual was carried out, the evil spirits were not completely destroyed, and there were still omissions, and after twenty years of development, it reappeared, and if it was delayed for a while, the previous tragedy might reappear.
Of course, the main reason they did this was to develop believers, in fact, after this excavation ceremony and purification ceremony, almost all the people in that building promised to go to the church this weekend, as for the development of a few new believers, it depends on their ability to fool.
This is what Jimmy found out when he went to the church and talked to Father Rodney, and they arranged for a priest to go to the scene in advance, and they made a big deal of money to make sure that this operation would not reappear after that.
Father Rodney is very interested in Jimmy, and as an ordinary person, it is not easy to observe such an abnormal situation under certain conditions without any training, which is considered a rare talent.
Coupled with his identity and Father Dallas Horton's experience of doing exorcisms for him, it is certain that Jimmy is still very reliable, at least for now, and is also a believer, if he can be cultivated from an early age, it is simply the perfect exorcist priest embryo.
Talking about his previous experience of being exorcised by Father Horton, Jimmy took out the cross pendant given to him by Father Horton and asked Father Rodney to help him look at it, he never felt that this cross had any special powers.
Fr. Rodney put the cross in his hand and looked at it, "Did Father Houghton tell you the origin of this cross?" ”
Jimmy: "He said, he said it was the cross he had with him in seminary, and he gave it to me as a gift. ”
Father Rodney nodded: "It's true that there is still a weak power on it, but her strength should have been consumed many times, and it is estimated that it will soon become an ordinary cross." Need help? I can do a new baptism for her, maybe for a little longer. ”
Jimmy was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Is that okay?" Thank you so much to Father Divine. ”
Father Rodney took out the Bible in his pocket, clipped the cross between the Bible, and held it with one hand, "OK, come back in a few days and get it." If you encounter something unusual these days, be sure to stay away, you were only a little contaminated with a little bit of evil spirit on the Bronx side before, she should be protecting you, otherwise you may be contaminated more. ”
Jimmy thanked Father Rodney and left the church, receiving a call from Julia as soon as he got back to his car, and was now ready to go.
Jimmy had never felt anything about this cross before, even if he looked at it with his mental eyes, he still didn't see any special energy emitted from the cross, and now since Father Rodney said that she had a weak power in it, it should be true, but he couldn't find it.
In fact, Jimmy has also observed the items in the church, and indeed he has not observed the power of evil spirits, so it can only be said that either Jimmy is not capable enough, or the power of the church is a little special.
Jimmy and Julia meet at the agreed place in the Bronx, and Julia gets out of the car and gives Jimmy the information.
Will Scott's address is in the South Bronx, in the Motthaven neighborhood, and just looking at this address, Jimmy is a little reluctant to go there.
The Bronx is the least safe area in New York, and Mott Haven is one of the least safe neighborhoods in the Bronx.
Of course, it doesn't have to be them, but even someone else can get them into trouble.
The Mott Haven neighborhood was formerly an industrial area on the Bronx's side, but in the fifties and sixties of the twentieth century, with the demolition of a large number of factories and other buildings and the construction of the Trans-Bronx Highway, a large number of residents of the Mott Haven neighborhood were displaced, and the poverty and decay of the South Bronx began.
The current Mott Haven neighborhood began to be urbanized around the 80s, but the people who were originally in the area have experienced decades of chaos, and even if the city has been built and developed, there is basically not much replacement for the crowd, so the safety of the whole area has not been high, even the pride of New York, the area around the Yankees' stadium is just as chaotic.
Jimmy and Julia drove to Will Scott's address, a five-story apartment building that looked built at least before the '70s.
Jimmy and Julia came upstairs and knocked on Will's door, and an old man inside came tremblingly and opened the door, and when he saw two Chinese, he asked in surprise, "Who are you looking for?" ”
Jimmy smiled and said, "We're coming to Will Scott, may I ask who you are?" ”
George: "George, the Scotts don't live here anymore. ”
Jimmy: "When did they move out?" ”
George: "It's been almost a year since Will and his wife went to Brooklyn, and he said he had a new job there. I'm just staying here temporarily. ”
Jimmy: "Do you have his new address?" ”
George: "No, I didn't, I haven't seen him in months. ”
Julia suddenly interjected, "And how do you pay him the rent?" ”
George: "There's no rent, he asked me to take care of the house for him, I can live here, for free." ”
Jimmy turned to look at Julia, she nodded, and Jimmy looked at George, "Do you have his phone?" ”
George looked at Jimmy suspiciously, "Who are you?" ”
Jimmy and Julia pulled out their papers, "FBI Special Agent Jimmy Young, this is Julia Lee, we need to contact Will for some things to confirm." ”
George: "He's in trouble?" ”
Jimmy: "No, it's just that he's an eyewitness to a case, but we haven't identified him before, so we need to contact him now to get his testimony." ”
George looked at Jimmy and Julia, two young Chinese FBI agents, who didn't seem to be in any danger, if Will really committed a crime, then he shouldn't have found such two people to arrest people, right?
George nodded, "Wait a minute, I'll go get my phone." ”
Jimmy and the others quickly got Will Scott's cell phone number, thanked them and left the apartment building, and when they got downstairs, they were about to get into the car when they suddenly found two black boys standing not far from the roadside, and they had been staring at the location of Jimmy's battle-damaged version of Saaban.
Jimmy stared at them for a few seconds, then opened the door and got into the car, leaving the block with Julia.
It seems that this Saab class should have attracted their attention, and in a place like Mott Haven Community, a Saab class with a federal license plate means that someone from the FBI must be nearby, and they should be watching. Old George upstairs is probably going to be unlucky, he may be harassed by these people.
Although Jimmy guessed the possibility of the follow-up, he didn't stop to trouble them, it would only get more and more chaotic, and now as long as Old George and these gang members honestly explain the matter that the two of them came to investigate, if he made a move, he might be killed at that time.
Jimmy called Julia while driving, "Julia, you go back to the office first, find someone to locate this mobile phone number, I will go to the sea eagle bar and confirm with the old sea eagle whether this mobile phone number is Will's, I was interrupted before and forgot to ask." ”
Julia: "Okay, what's next?" ”
Jimmy thought for a moment, "Let's determine his location first, and check if he has any other properties." ”
Julia: "Understood. ”
The two separated, with Julia heading to Manhattan and Jimmy heading straight to Brooklyn. By the time he arrived at the bar, the old sea eagle was already waiting for him at the door. Before the bar opened, Jimmy just called the old eagle on the way to tell him to come over, and although it would make the old eagle very uncomfortable, he didn't complain about anything.
Jimmy confirmed the mobile phone number he had investigated with the old sea eagle, and the old sea eagle struggled for a while, but he still took out his mobile phone and found a mobile phone number from it and gave it to Jimmy.
Old Sea Eagle: "I have given you all the information I know, nothing else, I hope you can understand that it is not convenient for me to receive you here, and it will interfere with my business." For the sake of my cooperation, we're done with it, OK? ”
Jimmy smiled and patted the old sea eagle on the shoulder, "Thank you, thank you for your cooperation." ”
Jimmy is not the kind of person who does not eat oil and salt, he himself has a connection with the hotel, so people like the old sea eagle are not on his must-kill list, and their existence is also created by this bad society, as long as it is not a vicious crime, the existence of the middleman is good for everyone.
Jimmy drove away from the Sea Eagle Bar and stopped on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere to call Julia, "Julia, this is the phone number I got from the old Sea Eagle Rice, you ask the technical department to check, this should be Will's usual mobile phone number, or the mobile phone number he uses to run errands." ”
Julia: "OK, I'll go to the technical department." ”
Jimmy: "I'm here in Brooklyn waiting for news, and you'll let me know as soon as you're sure." ”
Julia: "Okay, by the way, Mark is back. ”
Jimmy was a little speechless, he had arranged for Mark to rest, why did he go back to the office? After thinking about it, Jimmy asked Julia to run errands, and he dialed Mark's number, "Mark, how are you?" ”
Mark: "Hi Yang, I'm sorry, I can't stay at home, I want to join the investigation as soon as possible." ”
Jimmy: "Are you sure you're okay?" ”
Mark: "Yes, the doctor has determined that I don't have a concussion problem, it doesn't affect me. ”
Jimmy: "Okay, you cooperate with Julia to investigate Will Scott's information, and you come with Julia after determining his location." Also, if you ask Julia, if she doesn't go to the administration, you go to Tim Dunn, and I'll get a car for both of you. ”
Mark: "Thanks, Jan. ”
Jimmy hung up the phone, but decided to hand over the case to Mark and Julia to deal with, before he just made a mistake in arranging and let Mark go out alone to investigate, this time after determining Will's address, Mark and Julia should have no problem.
Jimmy drove to a café, bought a cup of coffee and stood by the car while drinking coffee and smoking a cigarette and waiting, and soon, Julia's phone called, "Yang, it's been located, the mobile phone number you gave is at the Queens Zoo, and the mobile phone number we got from George Sr. is turned off and can't be located." Mark and I are now off for Queens. ”
Jimmy: "Let's go. ”
Jimmy got in the car with his coffee and started to rush to Queens, trouble, if they really did do it there, there would definitely be no fewer victims this time, and there are also Queens Museum of Art and several other parks next to the zoo, and there is always a lot of traffic.
Soon after he started, he decided to summon backup, "Ruiz, I need a group of support agents, and I also need an SRT team to rush to the vicinity of the Queens Zoo and Art Museum, notify the Brooklyn-Queens field office, arrange for free people to go here as well, post a picture of Will Scott to everyone, and let them look for him near the zoo." ”
Ruiz: "You're sure of the gunman?" ”
Jimmy: "There's a good chance he's the second shooter we're looking for, and the point is that his phone location is in places like parks and zoos, which makes me suspect he might have done it in parks like the previous two mass shootings." ”
Ruiz: "Not enough. ”
Jimmy: "Then arrange for people to be nearby first, don't act, our team will investigate first, and when we are sure that we need them to support and evacuate the crowd at any time, I don't believe that the NYPD people can handle it, they can easily provoke Will to do something excessive." ”
Ruiz thought for a moment: "I'll give you a squad of SRTs, and they will wait for orders near Flushing." ”
Jimmy: "OK. ”
Jimmy rushed from Brooklyn Bass Beach to Queens, Mark and Julia traveled about the same distance from Manhattan, and when Jimmy arrived near the zoo, Mark and Julia also arrived.
Mark had his hair shaved off and his head was wrapped in a bandage, "Hi, Yang. ”
Jimmy: "Bring the walkie-talkie and headphones, let's go in separately and investigate the zoo first, and another team of SRTs is coming, and they will be waiting for our orders near Flushing, and if they find anything unusual, call for support immediately."
Will Scott may not be alone, the previous case was two people acting together, so it is likely that someone else is cooperating with him, and the two of you must not be separated.
Wear body armor and don't alarm tourists. Switch to Channel Three. ”
Mark and Julia: "Roger." The two went back to the car to get body armor, took off their coats and put them inside, and then locked the car and left.
Jimmy left early to start the search, they have a picture of Will Scott, but there is no information about his possible accomplices, so now it's not just about finding Will Scott, but also being careful not to get shot by someone else.
He hadn't gone far when he suddenly noticed a group of people running in the distance, Jimmy ran a few steps to get over, he grabbed a passerby and shouted, "FBI, what's going on?" ”
Passers-by were about to break free from Jimmy and continue to run, but when they heard his words and saw the FBI badge on Jimmy's belt, they stopped struggling, "There was a shooting in front, and there were several gunshots. A few people were knocked down, and I don't know about the others. ”
Jimmy let go of the passers-by, pulled out his pistol and staggered past the fleeing crowd, and pressed the headphone remote switch at the same time, "Mark, Julia, there's a shooting on my side, you guys hurry up, near the children's park." ”
Jimmy picked up the walkie-talkie and adjusted the channel, "I'm Senior Agent Jimmy Young, there's a shooting at the children's park near the zoo, and we're rushing over." You can come over too. Now switch to Channel Three. ”
Jimmy didn't wait for SRT to reply, but switched back to their channel and continued running towards the children's park.
Mark and Julia didn't go far when they heard the news coming over the intercom, and they immediately turned around and ran to Jimmy's place.
When Jimmy was running, he noticed two people running with long bags on their backs, one of them was Will Scott, he immediately raised his gun and shouted as he ran, "Will Scott, FBI, stop." ”
Will turned his head to look at Jimmy, who reached out and pulled out his pistol as he ran, shooting in Jimmy's direction while ducking behind a nearby tree. His companion took refuge as soon as he heard Will shoot, and at the same time placed the bag in front and took the gun out of it.
Will and his companions both took out their rifles after dodging, and Jimmy immediately hid when he saw their movements, he was not in a good position here, there were not many places to dodge, and the tree he dodged was a bit thin for a rifle.
Jimmy fired two shots at Will's position and immediately lunged at the nearby wall, where he should be able to withstand some of the rifle bullets.
Jimmy pressed the intercom: "Attention, Will and his companions, both with rifles, were located on the road outside the children's park, and there was already an exchange of fire. SRT, how long will it take you to get there? ”
A man's voice came from the SRT: "In five minutes, hold on." ”
Jimmy cursed secretly, five minutes, I don't know what will happen, forget it, I can't wait for them.
Jimmy swapped Glock to his left hand, and with his right hand pulled out the 1875 revolver from his armpit holster.
Normally, he wouldn't shoot people with 1875, .44 Magnum is a bit hurtful, and if you hit someone, the scene will be a little ugly, after all, he is an FBI agent, so you still have to pay attention to your personal image.
But now the situation is that he is being pointed at two rifles, and in Glock's words, he can't kill them in the short time between the two of them, only the heart eye and the revolver can complete this seemingly impossible shooting action.
Since the last time he went to meet Bishop Anderson with Dave, he had changed his configuration, and the imitation Colt python was temporarily abandoned by him, and now there are two 1875s in the armpit holster, although the final result will be ugly, and there is no other way.
Jimmy fired a few more shots at their location with Glock, all of them hitting the tree trunk, and when the gunshots were heard, Will and his companions also showed a part of the position staring at Jimmy from the side, raised their rifles and fired to suppress them.
Jimmy stared at them with his heart, and after positioning the two of them, he fixed the bullet point on their right hand and shoulder with the gun, and he dodged out from behind the wall, "Bang Bang Bang", he fired four shots at a rapid pace, Will and his accomplices were dumb almost at the same time, screaming loudly, and the rifle in his hand fell to the ground.
"Don't move, FBI."
Jimmy got up to aim at them and was about to approach them forward, Will picked up his pistol with his left hand and pointed it at Jimmy, "bang", Jimmy didn't stop it, a shot hit him in the chest, the bullet kinetic energy caused his body to deflect, his left hand was thrown out, and the pistol fell to the ground.
Another accomplice also took out a pistol at the same time, but he moved a little slower than Will, and he pointed at Jimmy after Jimmy shot Will, and he just shouted "Don't" when he saw Will's end, Jimmy had already put the last Magnum bullet into his left chest, "bang", and the whole scene instantly fell silent.
