664 Danger is coming
Jimmy's consideration is indeed possible, but this scope is too large, for the group of people who have experienced the Cold War in the United States, it is normal to have some doomsday lovers, and there are various companies to build doomsday shelters for the project to become bigger and stronger, and there are even special companies to customize the survival tools and furniture needed for this kind of shelter, in short, if this is used as their detection direction, no matter how many people there are, many people will not tell others that they have shelters at all.
But anyway, now that they've discovered the first shelter, they're sure to see more in the future, which can be used as an alternative direction, but I don't know what Agent Raymond will do.
Jimmy and Mahon waited by the car for more than ten minutes, and the three DHS agents finally returned, and the two people did not follow, it seems that they have at least negotiated temporarily, and it is not known if there is a follow-up.
Several people said hello and continued to get into the car and began to search, waiting for the support helicopter to notify them of the anomaly again, and before notifying, they could only drive slowly along the road while keeping an eye on their surroundings.
However, in vain, I don't know if the other party hid well during the day, until dark, the helicopter gave several targets did not find the armed personnel who matched their description, basically the camp of locals or homeless.
I have to say that helicopters are really a good thing, in Jimmy's previous case handling process, there are very few opportunities to use helicopters, this experience, it feels really good, at least the field of view is much faster than their search on the ground, and the coverage area is much larger, the only trouble is that there are only three helicopters supporting them now, and Jimmy only has one near them.
Jimmy and Mahon didn't even bring a change of clothes because they came here temporarily, and they couldn't live in a tent here, so the two of them were arranged to go to the city to find a hotel to rest for the night, and at the same time to buy personal supplies, and the others were still on duty in several shifts, in case someone called the police or other police found clues, they also needed emergency support.
Two of the three helicopters are also on rest, after which they will take turns to be on duty until they are dealerted.
Jimmy and Mahon booked a hotel room, went out to buy spare clothes and immediately entered the rest time, Jimmy opened most of the day today, although not tired, but there is still mental pressure, it is also a good thing to be able to rest for a while, tomorrow will definitely be open all day, he does not want to be tired for two days in a row without rest.
The next day, Jimmy and Mahon arrive at the makeshift command center, where they are already packing up and ready to go.
Jimmy found Raymond: "Agent Raymond, is this going to be transferred?" ”
Raymond: "That's right, we got word last night that someone called the police and found someone dressed like a special operator in Syracuse, there were no troops stationed there, and we suspect that someone of them has broken through our blockade and is close to Lake Ontario. ”
Jimmy asked, confused, "Where's Syracuse?" Sorry, I'm not familiar with other cities in New York State. ”
Raymond: "It's close to Lake Ontario, just west of here, but it's a little bit of a distance, and they're probably getting transportation." I've contacted the local police and the FBI to support the investigation and hope we can stop them before they reach Lake Ontario. ”
After Raymond finished speaking, he continued to sort out the materials, the agent next to him was packing up the tent, and the fuel tanker had already started to warm up and prepare to leave.
Jimmy and Mahon had to follow, but as Jimmy watched the long convoy of special divisions on the road, he always felt that their actions were a little too much to take for granted.
The other party is a mercenary group, no matter what type of mercenary group, at least it can be determined that there are fighters, intelligence officers, and of course scouts.
Now that DHS's operation is so high-profile, their scouts must have gotten the news, or their eyeliner must have gotten the news, Raymond wants to go to Syracuse to investigate nearby, and it is likely that the other party will prepare in advance, bypass Syracuse or escape in a different direction.
But Jimmy is not the person in charge this time, and he can't mobilize anyone else, so he can only go along, and he is definitely not the main person responsible, so be it.
Jimmy felt more and more that the methods used by DHS people were not quite right, and it was no problem for them to deal with ordinary urban crimes in such an encirclement, but this time they were dealing with professional war hyenas, they had a clear division of labor, a clear escape plan, and none of them had been caught so far, and even the clues were very few, obviously they had made up their minds not to enter the city, only to flee in the wild, and avoid all possible surveillance places.
These people have a clear plan and sufficient execution power, and in the face of such criminals, regular police blockades and inspections cannot deal with them, because there are not enough men, and blocking the roads alone will have little effect on those of them who are used to working in the wilderness.
Except for the others who had been encountered in the field for some reason, these people seemed to have disappeared, and Raymond redeployed a temporary command center on the outskirts of Syracuse, and contacted the various police dispatch centers again, still without getting the latest information.
Jimmy and Mahon smoke cigarettes and chat about each other's discoveries and ideas.
Mahon is not an ordinary person, DHS These people are actually people who were gathered from various departments when DHS was established, these people are no different from Jimmy and Mahon, and Mahon is obviously the kind of agent with a very high level of ability.
The problems that Jimmy can find, he can also find, and like Jimmy, he can't intervene, and now he and Jimmy are like marionettes arranged by DHS people to follow the investigation, completely incapacitated.
Jimmy and Mahon were notified that they needed to go out again and start patrolling the road, this time with not as many DHS agents assigned to them, only one agent who was the liaison sat in Mahon's car and accompanied them on patrol.
Because the heavily armed people found before were on the outskirts of Syracuse, most of the agents were now concentrated around a few small nearby cities, and the encirclement was even larger, and there was a great shortage of personnel.
Jimmy and Mahon left the makeshift command center and drove all the way down the road, keeping an eye on both sides of the road until the gas tank was halfway through, and the two found a gas station to refuel the car first, and then found an open space on the side of the road for lunch.
However, their good mood soon wore off, and a speeding sedan swayed in a serpentine manner on the road, suddenly losing control and crashing in their direction.
The three of them were sitting on the grass on the side of the road, and they were all taken aback when they saw the car rushing over, and they didn't even have time to stand up and run, "dodge", the three of them shouted almost at the same time, and rolled to both sides several times on the spot before avoiding the rushing car.
The shallow ditch on the side of the road did not have much impact on the car at all, it just bounced a little, and basically did not slow down and rushed to the grove next to it, and finally stopped after hitting a few small trees.
Jimmy got up on the ground and pulled out his pistol and slowly approached the stopped car, Jimmy had made sure that the driver was the only one in the car, and that he seemed to be unconscious, with his head hanging to the side, and there was no danger.
“FBI。” Jimmy shouted as he walked over, glanced through the window and put the gun back in holster, "Get him out, he's unconscious, a lot of blood, should be badly injured." ”
The door was a little deformed, and it couldn't be opened by pulling the door handle, and it seemed to be stuck, Jimmy knocked off the broken window glass a little more, reached out and pulled the door hard, and there was a toothache stabbing sound, and the main driver's door was finally opened by him. That's the advantage of having more power, but fortunately Mahon and the other agent didn't reach out, so they wouldn't find Jimmy's strength a little scary.
"No, he's got a gunshot wound, look at his abdomen and chest." Jimmy was about to reach out when he suddenly realized that the blood on the driver's body was not caused by a crash or fracture, but a gunshot wound, a wound he was all too familiar with.
Ma Hong immediately came to Jimmy's side, neither of them reached out to pull the driver again, but looked down to check the gunshot wound, and then touched the driver's carotid artery to make sure that he was still alive for the time being, Ma Hong looked at the DHS agent: "Call for support and ambulance, this is caused by a rifle bullet, not a pistol." Also inform Agent Raymond to track down the origin of the car, and the driver is likely to have seen our target. ”
Ma Hong is experienced, the wound caused by the rifle is completely different from the pistol, the kinetic energy is not the same, the destructiveness is not the same, the location of the gunshot wound does not seem to affect the heart at the moment, at least from the beating of the carotid artery, it can be determined that the person is at least alive, but I don't know how long he can live, and the amount of bleeding is a bit large.
DHS agents glanced at the driver, immediately went to the car and picked up the walkie-talkie to call the temporary command center, Jimmy They also left the driver of the accident and came to the road to start checking left and right.
Jimmy: "Mahon, you wait here, I'll check in the direction he's coming from." ”
Ma Hong shook his head: "No, it's too dangerous to be alone, I'll go with you." ”
The two men talked to the DHS agent, left Ma Hong's car, transferred Ma Hong's equipment bag to Jimmy's car, and the two drove Jimmy's car along the road where the car had just come and began to look back.
From the location of the car they saw when they noticed the problem just now, they continued to track it forward, but they were driving in the wrong direction along the side of the road, assisted by police lights and sirens, and the cars on the road did not have any problem with their wrong-way and unusually slow speed, and slowed down past them.
They have been looking for a distance of more than a kilometer, and they finally found a trace of a car accident, a car hit a crash barrel on the side of the road, and the water in the bucket spilled all over the ground.
Jimmy and the others inspected the scene, informed the followers with the car radio, and they continued to search, and finally found an improvised camping site in front of them, which was next to the woods not far from the roadside, with a layer of cloth on the ground, and some food on it, but no one.
They also found traces of ruts next to the campsite, and after searching the traces, they finally found bloodstains, which stretched all the way into the woods.
Jimmy and Mahon drew their guns and stared at the woods, finding nothing unusual for the time being, and returned to the car to notify the people behind them to come to support and surround the woods, Jimmy and Mahon began to enter the woods along the bloodstains to check.
Finally they found the starting point, there was a puddle of poop on the ground, it seemed that the driver should be squatting here, and then because of some accident, he was found by some people, and then he was shot twice, and the other party did not rush to kill everything, let him escape from here, get in the car and rush to the city to seek help.
But now the scene has been destroyed by the driver, they can't judge the trajectory of the bullet right now, but it must be in this wood, otherwise the tree will block the bullet, this forest is not big, Jimmy and Mahon stood up and looked around, and found nothing.
Soon, the support agents arrived, and Jimmy and Mahon gave their judgment to them, and the agents began to search around the location of the poop, and finally found two shells, 5.56x45 NATO rifle rounds.
Target confirmation, in the current environment, the discovery of this rifle bullet is a clear indication that their target is here, according to the driver after being shot alive and running so far, then the gunman will definitely not be too far from here.
The detectives immediately called in helicopter support and began to search for targets within a three-kilometer radius of the woods.
Jimmy and Ma Hong are also relieved, this time it was really luck, if they hadn't found out that the driver was shot by a rifle bullet, they wouldn't have chased here at all, and there were too many coincidences to find clues.
The two helicopters soon arrived over the woods and began to search both sides, although it was daytime, the infrared monitoring ability was somewhat weakened, but they still found several targets in the field, the agents scattered to check one by one, and finally got an information from an old couple, they had seen several people in camouflage uniforms nearby, it seemed that they were out hunting, all with weapons.
Following this clue, some of the agents abandoned the vehicle and began to search on foot in the field in the direction guided by the old couple, while another wave of people blocked the front along the road and separated multiple lines of defense to avoid omissions.
Agent Raymond also began to adjust the temporary command center, preparing to move to the next location when the time is right, so that they could be nearby for support, and everything was moving in the direction of success.
However, it was not so simple, in an unexpected direction, five members of an interception team were sneak attacked, one of them because of the position, the bullet entered the side of the torso, killing instantly, which was also the first agent to die since the DHS began the search.
