The meeting did not end, the inquiries of the main departments ended, Deputy Director Roberts did not directly announce the dismissal of the meeting, but began to inquire about the situation in Peter's other offices, this time the case involved the Washington office, the St. Louis office in Missouri, the Salt Lake City office in Utah and the Albuquerque office in New Mexico, which was already quite a huge operation, and there were many things that had to be considered clearly as the headquarters.
Peter has also been in contact with other offices in the past two days, and of course he has not done anything about their contribution to the investigation of the case, and he still said a lot of good things for them at the meeting.
However, the St. Louis office is more upset this time, because Jimmy's early investigation is more in-depth, they just cooperated with the on-site investigation, and there is no big gain, relatively speaking, other offices are much better, at least they either arrested people or saved people, and there are clear results.
Now that Deputy Director Roberts is asking in front of so many people, it is estimated that he will do something afterwards, and whether they will be rewarded or punished will depend entirely on the meaning of the headquarters.
This case involves a wide range of cases, for Deputy Director Roberts, who has rich experience, it is just the time to show his management ability, especially this case is directly handled by the headquarters, although he did not intervene at the beginning, but it does not affect him to take a considerable part of the benefits from the final processing stage of the case, including other departments to arrange personnel to assist in the follow-up of the case, and strive to completely close the coffin before Christmas.
Although the investigation and arrest of the case is very fast, the process of the case is not over, and it is not completely over until the end of the federal prosecutor's prosecution and the court trial, and for the federal prosecutor and the federal court, there are more cases in their hands, how can it be so simple to deal with the case quickly, and this is the time to give full play to the personal charm of the leader.
Since Deputy Director Roberts has taken the lead in the follow-up process, Peter can of course only delegate power, and he didn't say much during the whole meeting, except for asking some questions above, he was as honest as a transparent person.
The meeting didn't last long, it ended quickly, of course, it was dinner time, Jimmy didn't want to go back to New York, he honestly stayed at the headquarters for two more days to see the situation, and at the end of the meeting, the public affairs office also specially told him that the two days would be busy, and I hope Jimmy can wait here.
Peter had already asked someone to help book a hotel, and in the evening he took Jimmy to a small welcome party, and met several agents from the headquarters, and Jimmy was successfully liberated, and returned to the hotel to talk to Nia on the phone for a while, and then washed up and rested.
Taking advantage of the time, Jimmy borrowed a car from the headquarters early in the morning to go out, meet and chat with friends, and it is also appropriate to communicate, after all, they have all come to Washington DC, and there is nothing urgent to do, if he does not meet others, he can only go shopping in a daze, as for walking around in Washington DC or something, he is not interested at all, he can't get into the places he wants to go, and the rest of the places are not too attractive to him.
The speed of getting the news from the Kuanti Academy of Sciences is not slow, and the headquarters has not yet decided, Jimmy's former instructor colleagues have called to congratulate him on his contribution to a typical case again, and hope that he will have time to go back and have a look, and by the way, teach the faculty or something, just take a break.
This group of bastards is completely unfavorable, and the people who can become full-time instructors are either people who have taken a back seat, or some special personnel, Jimmy used to strictly say that he was actually a little bit of an idea to avoid trouble, and really let him be an instructor now, he would rather just resign, anyway, the money is enough for him to spend.
However, Kuanti Academy also has the advantage of being a huge time to fish, and for Jimmy, being a firearms instructor and case explainer, there are not many things that he actually needs to deal with, and it can even be regarded as a vacation, but the days are too idle, and there is no passion and ups and downs at all, which makes people like him a little uncomfortable.
Agreed to go back to the academy to visit them, Jimmy just put it aside, although Quantico is not far from Washington, DC, but it is not his top priority, and the case has not been sorted out yet, and when everything is ready, just go over and take a look, just like the hijacking case, tell them the details of the case that did not fall on paper.
John of the USSS Secret Service They happened to be in Washington, D.C., and they didn't go on a business trip, they just met and chatted and had a coffee, and Mrs. Waltz was in trouble, not only because it was far away, but the key was that Jimmy rarely contacted Mrs. Waltz, and it always felt a little abrupt to suddenly ask to visit.
But since he has time, he always has to bite the bullet to meet, Jimmy called in advance to make sure that the old man was in the cabin, so he set off from Washington, DC to her cabin, and of course bought some gifts in DC, it is always bad to come to the door empty-handed.
Mrs. Waltz is still the same, because of her limited mobility, so she basically won't leave here, but this time Jimmy didn't see her grandson Sam when he came over, but a middle-aged woman helped open the door, presumably a hired servant.
Mrs. Waltz was still very happy to see Jimmy coming, at least she seemed happy, and it was still a little deserted when there were basically no people here on weekdays.
After chatting for a while, Mrs. Waltz also asked why Jimmy was here, and Jimmy had nothing to hide, after all, it was a business matter, and it was likely to be public, not secret, so she also told me about her coming to the FBI headquarters to handle the case this time.
For a well-informed person like Mrs. Waltz, cases like human trafficking are obviously not uncommon, but the fact that they are all underage girls still makes her very emotional, after all, the fact that these people are doing is too bad.
But this time to make Jimmy drag on for so long, the key is that several cases are related, from the disappearance of the detective to the imprisonment of a rape girl, to human trafficking and kidnapping, and then to the club that cooperated with the DEA to investigate drug dealers, and it took two months to connect everything to be done at a fast speed, and under normal circumstances, it is possible to do more than half a year, and if the scope is a little wider, the number of investigators will be expanded.
Speaking of the case involving the girl, Jimmy once again tasted the nagging of the old man to give birth to a child, although it was somewhat surprising that Mrs. Waltz did not seem to be the kind of person who broke her mouth, but it was normal, after all, Mrs. Waltz was the closest person to her mother on the surface except for Tom, and people would always talk about these things when they were old, urging marriage before marriage, and giving birth to children after marriage.
After chatting for a while, Jimmy received a phone call and had to leave Mrs. Waltz's cabin and return to Washington.
The Public Affairs Office needs Jimmy to go back and shoot a video with Hope, of course, as an improvised script that they have prepared to connect some of the scenes of the investigation through their narration, but this will not be the final version, just for the preliminary preparation.
Because most of the content of the case does not have live video, the public affairs office will be particularly troublesome this time, they will process some content in advance, and then prepare more paper materials and videos, and then the professional team will select the content from the material to form a special report that can be made public.
According to Deputy Director Roberts's arrangement, this case is a serious case, and it can successfully rescue the imprisoned girl and catch the criminal of human trafficking, which is a typical case that demonstrates the FBI's cross-regional pursuit ability, and it is also a very positive image, which is completely different from the FBI in movies and TV series, and there are naturally a lot of materials to prepare.
The reason why it is included in the candidacy is purely because there are too many casualties associated with the case, if it is deliberately not mentioned, it will be questioned by the media and other groups, and if it is displayed, it is not very good for the personal image of the FBI agent, after all, the public does not want to have a federal agent who has legally killed countless people, and this is a threat to many people.
Deputy Director Roberts knew that Jimmy's record should not be hyped up, this kind of record is extremely rare to appear in a person, being questioned is only one aspect, the biggest problem is that it may cause public distrust of FBI agents, no one knows how many kill records the FBI has hidden, whether they will be unsafe in the face of such hidden agents, etc.
In short, although it is still an alternative publicity case, it is still necessary to improve the information as much as possible, and once the above has decided, they must be able to come up with it.
For Jimmy, this is the first time to act according to the script, and he is a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, because it is not official content, it doesn't matter if there are some flaws, it is only over after four recordings.
It's just that what surprised him was that they used a separate backlight source during the last recording, Jimmy took a look at the recording effect after telling the lines, and his outline was very clear, but the front was basically all hidden in the dark, and he couldn't see the details of the face at all, which should be to avoid his identity being directly exposed, right? He thought so, but he wasn't familiar with the people in the Public Affairs Office, and he was too embarrassed to ask them directly, so he ended the recording.
This recording is not unique, but Jimmy was notified by them that he could return to New York first, and then come back later when needed, and even later need to return to the scene of the crime to make up some content, these tedious and complicated details do not know how they arranged it, and it always felt as if they were making a movie, preparing the script, determining the recording venue and content, and then he acted according to the set content like those actors.
Jimmy and Peter said hello and bought a ticket back to New York, and then it was his vacation, Ruiz's approved vacation, he had been on a business trip for two months, and it was too unkind to come back to work, even if Jimmy had enough vacation this year.
Because of the marriage and honeymoon, he had been on leave for a long time, and now it was almost the end of the year, and it would be great to be able to get a paid vacation, Jimmy simply chatted with Nia and asked her to adjust the vacation as well, and the two went straight to the warm south to enjoy the sun and sand.
When Jimmy was playing in style, Ruiz and they were not idle, Jimmy had already shown his face at the headquarters, and he showed his personal style strongly, the news from the headquarters was not a secret to the New York office at all, there were many channels to get it, in order to ensure that the strong benchmark of the Manhattan office could stay here, Ruiz also contacted a lot of people to communicate, and quickly came up with a conclusion.
Jimmy is very good, to prevent the headquarters from forcibly pulling people, you have to get people stuck in the Manhattan office, the first is the level, the senior agent is always just a small role, although Jimmy manages the homicide investigation team, but in fact it is not so justifiable, it is still easy to find someone to pick on it.
This time, Jimmy can be regarded as a great achievement, and he can bring back Seventeen's body from Juarez, which is enough to make many people have a good impression of him, plus the case at the headquarters, it is not perfect, but it is reasonable.
It's just that after being promoted to a regulatory agent, there is a big problem, some things have to be exchanged, the homicide investigation team that Jimmy is currently managing needs to be withdrawn from him and handed over to someone else to manage, after all, there are too few positions in the head of the team, and there are many people who have reached the level without real power, Jimmy can't get all the benefits, and he always has to share a part.
Give a two-to-three year transition, and when Jimmy is old and experienced enough, it would be better to transfer to other departments, he is only in his early thirties, and he is a pure young man in the FBI system, and he has been promoted to a regulatory agent in only six or seven years, and for many people, this speed is no longer taking off by plane, but jumping on a rocket.
Of course, Jimmy's rise is not the fastest, and there are still quite a few people in the FBI who rise quickly, but it is indeed very rare for a Chinese American.
It is unclear exactly what Jimmy would be exchanged for, but when the dust settled, Ruiz called Jimmy and told him to stay at home and come back to work after the Christmas break, with a new position for him.
Jimmy was still a little confused when he received the call, he had been in the homicide team for several years, why was he suddenly transferred out and reassigned?
Nia ate ice cream and didn't speak after seeing Jimmy answer the phone, just stared at the street in front of her in a daze, and patted him gently: "What's wrong?" ”
Jimmy turned his head to look at Nia with a bad face: "Something seems to have happened in the bureau, Ruiz informed me to go back to work after Christmas, and there is a new position for me." No, there must be something wrong here. You wait here for a while, I'll make a few phone calls. (End of chapter)
