The FBI really didn't know much about Mexico, and Jimmy could only print out a few pages, which didn't reflect the extent of the chaos over there, so Ruiz read Jimmy's information and asked him to go back, and he went to find someone else to get some more information back.

This time the matter is a bit troublesome, if they are really involved in the Mexican drug lord war, although they may not necessarily come to New York to kill Seventeen, but it will always be a hidden danger, you must know that these drug lords are billionaires, although they can't come to trouble openly, but as long as they spread a little news privately, it can make people anxious.

So now we must find out in advance who the seventeenth was cheated by this time, how serious it is, whether they want to launch a counterattack or directly press this matter, they need sufficient intelligence support.

Seventeen had been undercover for many years after all, and his sources were various, but they were also very efficient, and that night, he found the location of Todd the Cripple, and managed to contain him, and when Jimmy arrived at the office the next morning, they had already finished their interrogation and had breakfast in the conference room.

Jimmy received a call from Ruiz and came to the conference room, Seventeen closed the lunch box in front of him and threw it into the trash can next to him, "OK, now it's confirmed, I'm really being used." ”

Seventeen took the folder next to him and pushed a few photos to Ruiz and Jimmy: "Look at this, you would never have imagined what they were doing with the C4." ”

Ruiz and Jimmy looked at the photo, which seemed to be a photo of an abandoned factory, but it was not specifically marked, and Seventeen continued to take out a few printed maps, "This place, the Brooklyn Navy Yard, has been abandoned for many years, and it has not yet been completely renovated, according to the city government's plan, it is expected to be transformed into an art innovation center in the next few years, but the jury is still not final."

Look at this again, this is what we went to shoot after the interrogation in the early hours of this morning, this abandoned dock has been transformed by this group of people, and an internal dock has been dug up next to it, but it is still being adjusted, and it has not been completed, this batch of C4 is used for blasting, and it will become a submarine dock for them after it is done, good guys, doing this kind of thing in New York, they can really think of it.

He was near this dock when I caught Todd yesterday, and it looks like they've been doing it for a while, but I always thought they were well hidden, and if we hadn't caught their tails this time, I really wouldn't have thought they would have a homemade submarine. ”

Ruiz: "Did you find their construction team?" ”

Seventeen: "No, the construction site seems to have been suspended for a while, and Todd admits that it was because their equipment and explosives were not in place and they were forced to delay the progress, and the construction team was brought in from out of town and sent out of New York temporarily. ”

Ruiz: "What about their submarines?" ”

Seventeen: "Those who are not crippled Todd, who turned out to be a middleman, wanted to expand his own business, took the task from someone else. ”

Jimmy asked, "I have a question, where did their C4 come from?" This thing is a controlled product, can you find the source? ”

Seventeen: "I haven't asked yet, he is only responsible for making requests, and the goods are delivered from the source." ”

Ruiz saw that Jimmy didn't continue to ask, and then he spoke, "Where is that Todd now?" How is he? ”

Seventeen: "In the underground clinic." ”

Well, it seems that Seventeen's work is a bit rough, and it will definitely be a bit too much to get Todd in one night, but when it comes to going to the underground clinic, it is estimated that Todd can change his nickname in the future, and the cripple should no longer be able to describe his characteristics.

Ruiz didn't care about this Todd, he was thinking about the follow-up of this matter, "So, what do you want to do with this matter?" ”

Seventeen shrugged: "I'll talk about it later, I haven't done it yet, wait for me to investigate it again." ”

Ruiz nodded: "Some things are better off going through the process. ”

Seventeen nodded, organized the materials into folders, and got up to leave the conference room.

Jimmy also got up, and he looked at Ruiz: "Have a drink together in the evening?" ”

Ruiz looked at Jimmy, waited a few seconds, and nodded, "Yes." ”

Jimmy: "See you at the bar." With a wave of his hand, Jimmy left the room.

There are still doubts about this matter, but in front of Seventeen, Jimmy didn't bring it up directly, after all, this is the conference room in the bureau, and some things should not be said too clearly.

The point is what Ruiz thinks, what they are doing now is seriously out of line with what FBI agents should do, not to mention whether Seventeen will go through the regular process and report it to the anti-terrorism team, as far as the clues they dealt with before the informant were violations, and also, after Jimmy and Ruiz left, how did Seventeen deal with that shipment?

Ruiz also understood what Jimmy meant, so he just thought about it for a while and agreed, and there were some things that still had to be communicated to avoid miscalculations.

After finishing work in the evening, Ruiz drove straight to Jimmy's bar, said hello to Woody, and then went to the small room next door, where he waited for Jimmy with a drink.

By the time Jimmy arrived, Ruiz should have drunk a lot, and when he saw Jimmy come to the small room, he pushed a cup for Jimmy and poured the wine: "You're late." ”

Jimmy: "Something went wrong, and I went out with Mark in the afternoon. Cheers. ”

Jimmy picked up the glass and touched Ruiz, drank the whiskey in the glass in one gulp, and then unbuttoned his suit and sat opposite Ruiz: "Ruiz, don't say those polite words, I want to know, what are you guys doing?" ”

Ruiz: "Jimmy, have you ever been undercover?" ”

Jimmy shook his head, "No, I've been going back and forth in several groups since I arrived in the bureau, and I haven't participated in undercover missions, so I don't have the right to pay informant fees until now." ”

Ruiz: "The life of an undercover agent is very difficult, I live in fear every day, I don't dare to contact people I knew before, and I don't dare to use all the funds and salaries provided by the bureau casually, for fear that I will expose myself." ”

Ruiz poured himself another glass as he spoke, his movements were not fast, and he didn't look at Jimmy, just stared at the bottle in his hand, "Many people have experienced this kind of day, and I am no exception. Luckily for me, I only went undercover for a few months, and because of an accident, I got out of my original mission and returned to the bureau. ”

Ruiz looked at Jimmy: "Seventeen is the unfortunate kind, because his undercover agent is long-term, and he came to New York from a different place, and he went from a fringe person to management step by step, providing us with a lot of important clues, and of course paying a lot of price." ”

Ruiz paused for a moment, played with the wine glass in his hand, raised it and took a sip, exhaling, "There are many things that cannot be said, some things are clear to everyone, and they can be understood, as long as the face can be passed, there are some things that do not need to be pursued." ”

Jimmy nodded, he had considered this situation before, and he had deliberately gone to Hughes to ask him to help intervene because Seventeen might implicate Ruiz, but now Ruiz has always said Seventeen, has nothing to do with him?

Ruiz waited for a while, seeing that Jimmy didn't answer, and he continued: "Seventeen's previous contact was not me, I took it from someone else. Until then, Seventeen was already doing something, for himself and for the sake of others. ”

Ruiz stared at Jimmy, "Seventeen and other colleagues like Seventeen, a lot of what they do is in the secret stage, and it's not time to declassify it yet, so don't make any noise about some things, especially things that have nothing to do with you and me." ”

Jimmy: "Do you believe him?" ”

Ruiz leaned back towards the back of the couch: "Of course." ”

The corners of Jimmy's mouth curled: "Then why did you ask me to go with you?" Protection? ”

Ruiz's eyes contracted, and he quickly recovered, and if it weren't for Jimmy's constant observation of his expression, he might not have noticed. Taking a sip of wine, Ruiz spoke after a while: "It's not a conflict, it's outside of New York, after all." ”

This time they see that Seventeen is in New Jersey, not in New York, but just across the region and needs Jimmy to protect him?

Jimmy: "What did you do with the goods this time?" ”

Ruiz shook his head, "Seventeen will take care of it, and it won't implicate anyone." ”

Jimmy: "No, I'm not worried about him getting involved with you, I'm concerned about the drugs. You know the thing I hate the most is drug dealers, what if...... I mean, suppose Seventeen resells this shipment......"

Ruiz stared at Jimmy, his eyes were a little nervous: "He won't, if it's some ordinary luxury, he can deal with it at will, don't worry, he understands." ”

Jimmy: "Don't worry about me, I'm sure I can figure out these things about them, don't worry, but you'd better let him put the finishing touches on it so that nothing else goes wrong." ”

Ruiz nodded, picked up the bottle and poured himself and Jimmy wine: "Cheers." ”

It's good that Jimmy can understand, so as to avoid a big gap between each other, Ruiz is one of the people in the bureau who is most familiar with Jimmy, what is his personality and attitude towards the enemy, who can know better than Ruiz? They're a lifelong friendship.

One more thing, does Ruiz really trust Seventeen completely? Not necessarily, otherwise he really wouldn't have to ask Jimmy to accompany him to New Jersey to see Seventeen, trust is certain, but complete trust is not necessarily.

Ruiz only knows part of the things that Seventeen is involved in, and no one can guarantee that Seventeen has not made any major incidents here, but in the face of Jimmy's inquiry, Ruiz must speak for Seventeen, otherwise this matter will not be over.

Jimmy: "By the way, there is one more thing, there is a problem with the conclusions of those C4 and Seventeen, you should pay attention, PETN is generally used for building blasting or underground blasting, and there are very few people who can use C4 as blasting explosives, if he is fooled, then the follow-up use of those explosives will be problematic." ”

Ruiz was unfamiliar with the bombing, and he looked at Jimmy with a frown, "Are you sure?" ”

Jimmy: "Of course, I've done a lot of bombings, and I was involved in a basement blast some time ago, so I'm familiar with the types of explosives they blast. ”

Ruiz: "I'll talk to him." ”

After the main topic ended, they all relaxed a lot, Jimmy recognized a godson Ruiz also knew, when he knew that the godson was Elliot whom Jimmy rescued before, he was a little surprised, and Jimmy also said that he had time to take Elliot to the office to get to know them, which was also a nephew.

For the next few days, Jimmy didn't get another call from Ruiz, he didn't see Seventeen again, and he didn't know how they were doing.

He paid attention to the list of recent cases, and found no cases of accidental deaths, of course, people die every day, but there are usually normal death certificates, and he must be concerned about those vendetta assassinations and the like.

Seventeen He could probably guess their style of doing things, that crippled Todd was going to be unlucky nine times out of ten, and if he didn't survive, then he would basically be on this list of accidental deaths.

It's just that they haven't found any news, but because of his investigation, Mark and Julia are nervous, and they also went out of their way to ask Jimmy if there was any missing clue in their case, and now Jimmy is helping them wipe their butts......

Jimmy comforted them and told them to continue investigating the case normally, which he was investigating now had nothing to do with theirs.

Finally, over the weekend, Jimmy receives a call from Ruiz asking him to meet him at the abandoned shipyard in Brooklyn.

Jimmy is also here for the first time and sees Ruiz's car outside, where Ruiz and Seventeen are already inside. Jimmy didn't call them and walked over looking directly at their location.

"Is this their submarine dock?"

Jimmy came to the outside of a dock and stood on a platform looking at the pit below, with Seventeen and Ruiz standing inside.

Ruiz glanced up at Jimmy and beckoned him down.

It's really private enough, there is a platform on top to cover it, there is an extended waterway below, there is a simple telescopic dock, you can stretch out to the waterway, if it is a submarine, it should be just on the exit above.

Jimmy: "That's where they're ready?" It looks like it's pretty much there. ”

Ruiz nodded: "That's right, this is it, the place where they are going to blast is over there, ready to expand a warehouse location." ”

Jimmy: "Seventeen, I have a question, who does this belong to?" They have spent so much effort to build such a submarine dock, do they expect the government to replan and develop it in just a few months? ”

Seventeen: "Of course it's different, it's not so easy to develop here, the military, the Ministry of Defense and the shipyard are playing a lot of games, and the city government wants to completely take over the renovation here, it will take a long time, enough for them to make a lot of money." ”

Jimmy: "So, what am I here for?" ”

I'm sorry for the delay in the morning. The flu was severe and I was groggy these nights, I tried my best.
