Miami is a world-renowned tourist city, and safety can be guaranteed when it comes to the planned tourist attractions.
The occupations of Jimmy and Nia determine that when they go out, they will definitely know in advance where their destination is safe and where it is dangerous, so the places they turned to in the past two days were concentrated near Miami Beach and the city center, and they basically did not go too deep into the city.
After all, I am traveling, and happiness and safety are the most important things, and I can spend more time playing around with less trouble.
It's just that after taking a turn, I found that Nia was not very interested, in fact, it is understandable, after all, from New York to Miami, there is basically little difference between the places within the city limits, and the beaches are much stronger than New York.
Jimmy thought about it, flipped through the guidebook, picked a few locations that weren't too far away, and then it was up to him to decide on the location.
Early on the morning of the third day, Jimmy and Nia packed their bags and checked out, left Miami Beach in their rented car, and returned to the city to take Florida Interstate 1 to Key West (Key West).
The ocean-bound highway is less than 200 kilometers long and passes through the islands of the Florida Keys to Key West. The sea on the left and right along the way is very beautiful, and although the drive is a bit long, it is not monotonous.
Key West is the southernmost point of the United States and a famous tourist city, there is naturally no shortage of resorts and hotels here, Jimmy and they chose a hotel by the sea and then went out to enjoy a delicious lunch, lime pie is really good, sweet and sour.
In the afternoon, Jimmy's key project for Nia was coral reef diving. Unfortunately, because neither Jimmy nor Nia had diving experience, they had to spend a lot of time training on diving courses and could only dive in shallow waters with a diving instructor. Diving certifications are required in the deep waters, which can only be experienced later.
Even though it was only a shallow water dive, the experience was still very good, and the underwater perspective of seeing shallow corals and schools of fish was a novel experience for both of them.
Jimmy: After the diving experience, they walked around the beach, which is quite different from Miami Beach, there are many fewer people, and the environment is better.
At sunset, they came to Mallory Square, bought a coconut and waited for the moment when the sun and the sea level overlapped with many tourists, and there were many street performances gathered next to it, such as magic and divination, which were also very good.
The next morning, they set sail on a well-chartered yacht, the captain drove to the vicinity of their target island, Jimmy went fishing, and Nia changed into a swimsuit and went swimming.
Nia swam beside the yacht for a while, then suddenly stopped, treading water and floating on the water, "Jimmy, there's something here." β
Jimmy turned his head to look over, "What?" β
Nia: "There's something underwater. β
Jimmy looked at Nia's position, looked at the bottom of the sea with his heart, there was an irregular object about a square at a depth of a few meters, he put away the sea fishing rod, took off his shirt and shoes, took a pair of diving goggles from the side and jumped into the water, "Wait, I'm here." β
Jimmy was still okay to swim, and he came up to Nia and whispered, "I'll go down and take a look, you look at the boat." β
Taking a deep breath, Jimmy went into the water with a fierce man, this time it can be seen visually, it seems to be two packages connected up and down, the package is not big, but it does not float, it should be solid to see.
Jimmy didn't go down and pull it directly, but floated up and said to Nia: "I saw it, it should be a package, I'll try to see if I can get it out." β
Diving without equipment is a very dangerous thing, Jimmy has never done it before, but the position of the package is not deep, it should be less than ten meters, Jimmy tried to reach out and grab the package on it, and immediately swung up with one hand.
The weight of the package is not light, grabbing an object underwater and floating up is different from moving something on the ground, Jimmy didn't think about how heavy this thing is, the most important thing is to surface first, but he didn't have this experience, and finally floated to the surface when he couldn't hold his breath anymore.
As soon as Jimmy floated, Nia swam over and reached out to grab him, and the two of them swam towards the yacht while shouting, "Captain, come and help." β
The captain at the front of the yacht heard Jimmy's shout, and immediately came to the stern, stretched out his hand and pulled Nia into the boat first, and then Jimmy up.
The captain looked at the package in Jimmy's hand in surprise: "What's going on?" β
Jimmy: "What Nia saw while swimming, I went down and got it." Do you know? β
Captain: "Don't dismantle, don't move." I went to contact the police. β
Jimmy: "Why?" β
Captain: "I'll tell you later." β
The captain said as he ran to the driver's seat, he picked up the walkie-talkie and contacted the club, reported the package found here and their current coordinates, and asked the club to call the police.
After all this, the captain returned to Jimmy's side: "I have seen this kind of packaging in the internal notice, the police department just reported that a drug smuggling case has been solved a few days ago, and the packaging is this earthy yellow square. β
Jimmy was speechless, he turned his head to look at Nia, Nia's expression was also helpless, they just came out to play, why was it so bad luck?
The captain shrugged, "I have to report this thing, sorry, two, I don't want to get in trouble." β
Jimmy scolded, "Our vacation is in vain." Captain, how long will it take for them to come? β
Captain: "It should be quick, twenty minutes." Let's just wait here. β
Nia asked Jimmy, "How much is that?" β
Jimmy glanced at the package and shook his head: "It is estimated that there are several kilograms, and it is not easy to determine if it is stained with seawater." However, these are at least 100,000 yuan, and it seems that something must have happened to them to throw away the goods in a panic. β
Nia also burst into foul language, and she hugged Jimmy directly, "My beach vacation, it's all ruined." β
Jimmy patted her on the back, "It's okay, I'll explain it to them later, we just found out, and it's not ours." β
Soon a speedboat arrived, and after approaching the yacht, two members of the coast guard, a uniformed police officer, and a plainclothes police detective all arrived on the yacht.
Detective: "Detective Bernard Green, who found the package?" β
Jimmy stepped forward: "Jimmy Young, senior agent of the New York branch of the FBI, this is my fiancΓ©e, NYPD detective Nia Miller, she found it while swimming, and I went down to get it." β
Detective Green shook hands with Jimmy in surprise: "Really? Can I see your documents? β
Jimmy: "Sorry, the ID is at the hotel, we just came out to play, and no one expected this unexpected situation." β
Detective Green nodded, "I'll check first." β
He came to the package and squatted down, put on his gloves and flipped through the package and nodded: "That's right, the goods from Colombia are the same as the packaging we found last time." β
He stood up and said to Jimmy, "I'm sorry, it looks like I need you to go back to the police station with me." β
Jimmy glanced at Nia and nodded to Green, "Yes." β
Green said to the captain: "Don't disclose the coordinates here to anyone else, we will arrange for someone to inspect and salvage other goods that may be present." β
The captain nodded, "So we'll head back now?" β
Greene: "Yes, let's go back together." β
Instead of being taken to the Coast Guard speedboat, Detective Green and uniformed police officers came to the yacht to watch them and the package, and the Coast Guard speedboat followed the yacht before they turned around and left when they reached the club pier.
Jimmy and the others took back their personal belongings, came to the police station in a police car, registered the information and testimony of the two, and Detective Green carefully checked it and said: "Trouble the two of you, if you can, please don't return to New York for the time being, give us a little time to investigate." β
Jimmy nodded: "Please investigate as soon as possible, the two of us still have work to do, and we can't be here for a long time." β
Detective Green smiled and said, "Of course, I'll deal with it as soon as possible." β
Jimmy and Nya returned to the hotel, not in the mood to go out at all.
In the inquiry just now, Jimmy inquired about the situation by the way, they are really unlucky, the Miami police just cracked a drug smuggling case a few days ago, the value of the case is huge, Key West belongs to Monroe County, although it has no jurisdiction with Miami, but because it is not far away and they are all by the sea, so there is cooperation between them.
The package Jimmy found has been sent for inspection, and it is confirmed that it is the same as the goods in the drug smuggling case in Miami, and it is not even ruled out that it is the same batch of goods that have come in, and the police department will have to contact the Miami police to confirm before deciding whether to let Jimmy and them leave.
That night, Jimmy receives a call from Detective Green, and they need to go with Detective Green to the Miami Police Department the next morning.
At the Miami Police Department, Jimmy and Nia repeat their itinerary and the discovery of the drugs, and that's the end of it, and they also learn that Detective Green contacted a professional diver and found the same package around the island, and nothing else.
The rest is the matter of the police station, Jimmy and Nia left the police station, and the two went to a restaurant to sit next to the window, Jimmy sighed and asked, "Do you want to continue to play here?" β
Nia: "No, let's go back." β
Jimmy: "Well, I'll book a plane ticket then." β
Jimmy called to book a ticket, and the ticket for the day was gone, so he could only book it for the next morning, so he didn't postpone it anymore and directly booked two first-class tickets.
Jimmy: "There's still half a day, do you want to go around again?" What about Zoo Miami? β
Nia: "No, let's go to Little Havana, I've heard that the food is great. β
Jimmy: "OK"
Nia bought some gifts for the gift, and Jimmy tasted one in a cigar workshop and bought a few boxes to take home.
The next day, Jimmy and Nyoa finally returned to New York, this time the tour was a little too late, but fortunately Jimmy and his two people were watching, so they didn't have to worry about being completely unemployed.
Back in the office, Jimmy: "Hey, Mark, Julia, what's the big deal these days?" β
As he walked over, he handed the gift he was carrying to Mark and Julia, Mark was a few cigars, and Julia was a Cuban coffee bean, and the coffee beans were chosen by Nia, and she liked it very much.
Mark: "Thank you. There was a street shooting, which has been dealt with. β
Jimmy looked at Mark in surprise: "When is the case?" β
Mark: "At about 1 o'clock in the morning on Christmas Day, a person in the car fired random shots at people on the side of the road, and the NYPD traced the car information, but according to the surveillance information, it was found that the gunman's car left Manhattan and went to Jersey City, so contact us to deal with it.
The shooting resulted in three people suffering gunshot wounds that did not fatalize, and the gunman's car was found in a suburb of Jersey City, and we contacted the people in the Newark office, who investigated and caught someone the next day. β
Jimmy: "You didn't go to New Jersey, did you?" β
Mark: "Well, I just contacted him by phone, and now the gunman has been sent to prison, waiting for the prosecutor to arrange an indictment." β
Jimmy: "Then leave it alone, just let them take care of it themselves." If it's a cross-regional event, be sure to let me know. β
The subjective initiative is good, and the two of them dealt with the case by themselves, and neither of them called Jimmy to inform them, but the two of them were really bold, and this kind of thing should at least call Jimmy and ask how to deal with it.
Jimmy returned to his place, cleaned up the table, and looked through the records of the new cases these days.
After a while, the sound of the fax machine sounded, and Mark walked over to pick up the fax and looked at it, "Young, from the Hudson Valley Field Office." β
He faxed it to Jimmy, and Jimmy took a look at the familiar case, the murder case at the villa he had seen just the other day, in which two of them were dismembered.
They don't have any clues about this case for the time being, and they will report to the Manhattan office to investigate if there are similar cases elsewhere to see if there are any relevant clues to provide.
The New York office is responsible for cases in several counties in the southeast corner of New York, and it doesn't just deal with cases in New York City, but because there are five subordinate field offices, Jimmy usually handles cases within the city area, and now it seems that they really can't handle this case.
Jimmy: "Mark, Julia, you guys go and contact the NYPD to see if they find any cases like this. β
Mark: "Any requirements?" β
Jimmy: "Just looking, no clues. β
With Mark and their temporary assignment arranged, Jimmy flipped through the bureau's address book and contacted the Hudson Valley office to ask about the person in charge of the case who needed to know the details of the investigation.
I thought it was just a routine question, but the case was closed if it didn't work, but it backfired, and a few hours later, Mark and Julia came back with a message that upset Jimmy.
There was also a similar case of decapitation on the NYPD's side, where only one deceased person was also killed at home, and there was no clue.
