Chapter 674

When Jimmy and the others returned to the command center, the news from the front had also arrived, and the two DHS special teams had arrived at the target location, but no one was found at the scene, they had not returned for the time being, and they still needed to go around to see if there was anything new, but it seemed that there was little hope.

Agent Raymond's face was ugly, this time DHS was too humiliating, not to mention the heavy casualties, the biggest credit for the case was robbed by the FBI who assisted them, there was still a chance to save face, but now it doesn't look very hopeful.

Before the dust settles, Raymond must do something to keep his side from being so ugly, but he still needs to think about what to do, and by the way, he also needs to consult other people's opinions, this time it is not only his own trouble, but also a trouble between institutions.

Jimmy and Mahon can rest here, but they still can't leave, and the two of them are too lazy to stay in the wild, so they go back to the hotel directly, and come out for coffee and dinner after resting, and they should go out on vacation.

After all, Mahon is more experienced than Jimmy, and the two talked a lot, and probably guessed Raymond's thoughts, but he was also saying in a joking way, after all, the trouble was in someone else, so they would not be worried.

After all, Mahon is a person who is married, has children and divorced, and he still gives a lot of advice on Jimmy's married life, anyway, being idle is idle, and being a good teacher is a habit for many people, and Jimmy can only passively accept these so-called experiences.

However, Mahon's experience is still different from Jimmy's life, after all, Nia is also a strong woman type, which is not the same as Mahong's ex-wife, but about children, this is really an unavoidable topic.

It's not that Jimmy doesn't want children, he needs to talk to Nia, anyway, as a Chinese in his bones, children are still very important, and he doesn't pursue Dink like many people on Lao Mei's side, but for Nia, he is not sure if he would choose to have children at such a young age.

Nia actually really likes her profession, not the kind of deliberately policeman who contradicts Kevin before, if she really chooses to get pregnant, or if she is pregnant, Nia is estimated to be transferred from the police detective department to a logistics or management position.

It's not the norm, but as the daughter of Deputy Chief Kevin, who would dare to let Nia go out to investigate the case while she was pregnant? New York is not so safe, once something happens, there are a bunch of people involved, as long as you think about it, you will know that as long as the news of her pregnancy comes out, she must face a transfer from her post, or a promotion.

Whether Nia is willing to accept this point must be well talked and communicated clearly, Jimmy is not the kind of macho character of the head of the family, he is still willing to respect Nia's choice.

However, Jimmy is still a little bit troubled about the child being targeted, he doesn't care about himself, but if the child is targeted by the church from an early age, he doesn't know what it will develop into in the future.

Finally, after a day of waiting, Agent Raymond announced the end of the investigation, and Jimmy, Mahon, and the rest of the people who had been transferred from other departments to help were able to get out and leave.

Jimmy and the others can finally return to New York, this time it is much easier, there is no need to drive fast, the two of them drove back to their respective homes normally, after all, after driving for a few hours, they also need to rest, and it is too inhumane to go directly to work.

When Jimmy came home, he didn't have time to show it, so he went out to buy some ingredients to surprise Nia.

Over the past few years, Jimmy's cooking skills have been getting better and better, especially his body control ability has become stronger and stronger, and his control of strength is more accurate, and there will be no situation where he accidentally pours a bunch of spices into the pot, and the cutting of vegetables and meat is basically a very accurate size, which is pleasing to the eye and has a more balanced taste.

Nia didn't settle dinner out today, Jimmy called her last night and said that she should be back in the next day or two, and if Jimmy came back today, she happened to go out with Jimmy.

The moment he took out the key to open the door and turned on the light, Jimmy stood in the living room and said, "Surprise! ”

Nia turned around with a smile and ran two steps to pounce on Jimmy, "You're back, why don't you call me in advance?" How's your case going? Are there any injuries? ”

Jimmy hugged Nia and spun around, "Of course not, isn't this a surprise for you." Okay, let's go wash up first, I've made dinner. ”

Nia kissed Jimmy, put her bag on the couch, got up to wash, Jimmy took out a match and lit the candle, although it was in her own house, it would be nice to have a candlelight dinner.

When Nia came out, she found that the lights in the living room and dining room had been turned off, and in addition to dinner, there were two lit candlesticks on the table, and she looked at Jimmy in surprise, she sat on the side of the table and looked at Jimmy with a smile, "Tell me, it's so good today, is there anything you want to say to me?" ”

Jimmy raised an eyebrow, "No, I'm just out for a few days, and I'm coming back to surprise you." Try the steak I made, it was super good today. ”

Nia smiled a little and picked up her knife and fork, "Okay, we'll talk about it in the evening." ”

Jimmy also picked up the knife and fork, the steak in front of him was a large portion, and since his body strengthened, his meal volume has also increased day by day, even though it is night, he still has to eat a little more.

Nia ate a small piece of steak and suddenly looked up and said, "By the way, Dad asked me to tell you about Elliot's recognition of you as a godfather, if you have no opinion, prepare it in advance." ”

Jimmy: "Well, no problem, it's not bad to have a godson, so you should prepare for educating your child in advance." ”

It's not so simple to recognize a godson, if it's an ordinary person, it's usually a simple ceremony for both parties, and the two families can confirm it together, but since Kevin said so, there must be a certain idea to make this matter more formal, so it is estimated that he will have to go to church.

This is the first time Jimmy has done this, and he still doesn't know the relevant process, but it's not a problem, not to mention anything else, he also knows some people in the church, just ask Father Rodney about it, he must know.

After dinner, Jimmy saw that it was still early, so he suggested going out for a walk and watching a movie or something. On the Upper West Side, Jimmy's safety is still guaranteed, so that they don't dare to go out at night, of course, they still have to pay attention to a little bit, Manhattan is not a safe place, but Jimmy and Nia both have the ability to protect themselves, and they are not too worried.

Of course, they still watched the movie safely and went home, and there were no accidents, because there was nothing they particularly wanted to watch, they just found a movie that was about to open and went in to watch it, neither of them was a movie lover, just to kill time.

At night, when the two of them were lying on the bed after being busy for a while, Jimmy held Nia and pinched a bunch of her hair in his hands, playing with the ends of the hair, and then said his thoughts and asked for Nia's opinion on whether to prepare for pregnancy in advance.

Nia looked up at Jimmy in surprise, and Jimmy nodded, signaling that she was serious, and she began to think about it seriously.

As Jimmy thought, although Nia was married, she hadn't thought about having a child so early, and in the end she still didn't make a decision this night, and Jimmy wasn't in a hurry, this matter couldn't be done in a day or two, and there was enough time to think about it.

The next day was the weekend, and Jimmy didn't rush back to the office, just called and asked Mark if he was in a hurry, and then went to the church to find Father Rodney.

Of course, when you go to church, you must first do a prayer, even if it's just for show, you have to maintain this image, you must know that Jimmy has never participated in various activities of the church, as a believer, he must be unqualified, but there is a valid reason, plus no one comes to find fault, and that's it.

Jimmy was surprised that Father Rodney was not there, and the other priests were not familiar with Jimmy, perhaps they had heard Jimmy's name, but declined his request to inquire about Father Rodney's whereabouts when he did not identify himself.

It's not a big deal, but he didn't ask anyone else about the process of recognizing his godson, so he waited for Father Rodney to return.

Leaving the church, Jimmy called Father Rodney and was surprised to learn that he had gone to seminary and would be back tomorrow, so it would be no problem, Jimmy had more free time on the weekend, and he would come back tomorrow.

Accompany Nia to go shopping, do SPA, go back to Nia's house to eat, the day passed quickly, speaking of which is so worry-free, I don't want to cook or go out to eat, so I go to my mother-in-law to eat, they will not be unwelcome, after all, it is the only daughter, anyway, Jimmy has no psychological pressure at all.

As for Kevin, his opinion is not important, and in terms of family status, Kevin is not much better than Jimmy, so after dinner, Nia chatted with her mother, and Jimmy and Kevin came to the study to smoke cigars and drink wine and chat.

Kevin has participated in a lot of activities recently, plus some previous preparations, and now it is basically determined that he will take over as the chief of police in the future, the original director is the descendant of the previous mayor, but everyone is a party, and many things have not been done so excessively, but with the new mayor, it is always necessary to adjust, it depends on the arrangements behind.

After becoming the director, Kevin can be regarded as stepping into the scope of senior government officials, because the director of the NYPD is an appointment system, not an election system, so what Kevin needs to do at that time is to manage his own image, and maybe one day he will succeed in becoming the mayor.

Kevin is still very grateful to Jimmy, it is undeniable that the recent support of several powerful people for him stems from the relationship with the church, in fact, the wedding caused a lot more shock on some people's side than Jimmy imagined, especially those who are well aware of some of the secret affairs of the church.

Jimmy's identity is no longer as simple as a simple FBI agent, he has been tied to the mark of the church, and in the hearts of some people, the impression of him as a devout believer has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and he is a believer that the church values very much, which is much stronger than the average believer.

Kevin also knows this, so he is so concerned about Jimmy's adoption of his godson, because this kind of relationship will also benefit Elliot, and even Alex Green will benefit from it, these things Jimmy may not care, but Kevin also has to take it into account.

Jimmy also told Kevin about his plans, but the process is still uncertain for the time being, and he needs to wait for Father Rodney to come back.

The next day, when Jimmy came to the church again, Father Rodney had returned, and he was not alone, and there were two young priests beside him, but they did not look like ordinary priests, and they did not have any other smiles on their faces, and they were much more serious.

Fr. Rodney: "Jimmy, what's the matter?" ”

Jimmy: "Well, there's a little thing I'd like to ask Father Rodney to help me with. But who are these two? ”

Fr. Rodney: "They're new people that I brought back from seminary, and then they'll be assigned to other churches to take care of local affairs. ”

Jimmy nodded to the two of them, and then said his own thing: "I did a kidnapping case before, the kidnapped child wants to recognize me as a godfather, I want to ask you, if I want to recognize him as a godson, what do I need to do?" I'm not very familiar with those. ”

Father Rodney looked at Jimmy in surprise, "Godson? Who is he? ”

Jimmy: "It's just a kid who has a bit of a psychological problem because of the kidnapping case, and then I participated in the treatment of him, a very nice little guy." ”

Father Rodney nodded: "The process is not complicated, if you are sure, you can tell me the time, and I will arrange it." ”

Jimmy: "Is it right here?" ”

Father Rodney nodded in confirmation that it was just a trifle and not worth going to Stanton Island.

Jimmy: "Okay, then I'll talk to the others about the time, and I'll let you know if I'm sure." Thank you, Father Rodney. ”

Fr. Rodney: "You're welcome, Jimmy. ”

When Jimmy took his leave, a priest behind Father Rodney asked, "Father Rodney, is he the one who brought you back?" Who is he? ”

Father Rodney shook his head, "He's just our collaborator, but he doesn't have anything to do with you for the time being, so don't worry. Alright, let's move on with your lessons, you'll soon be on your own. ”

Jimmy left the church and drove home, and it was clear that the church was not having a good time now, because there were too many supernatural events, and now they had begun to use new people, and Father Rodney's words just now basically showed that they no longer had enough senior exorcist priests to arrange for various places, and they could only find these new people from the seminary to deal with these things.

Judging from the several supernatural events that Jimmy participated in the previous incident, in addition to the shortage of manpower due to too many incidents, it is estimated that there is another point, that is, the death and injury of the exorcist priest, there may be a group of senior priests who have withdrawn from the front line, and they may even be summoned by the Lord.
