759 Doing things
The information that can be sent by someone must be detrimental to some people, Jimmy did not choose to look at the information directly, and if he took over the investigation, he must first look at all the information, so as not to be affected by the preconceived information that misleads his target.
The employer of this hired homicide case is himself, so he will definitely not find a target from these materials, but if he is preconceived by these misleading information, he may become an accomplice to the other party's framing of others, so even if he wants to find a substitute for the dead, he will definitely not be able to choose someone else's target, especially such a guy who hides his head and tail.
In fact, he didn't want to find a substitute for the ghost, so let Mark come over alone just to check casually and give a conclusion, but Mark suddenly had an accident, and now he is not sure who the other party is, and he can't do it directly.
After checking the information, he left the hotel directly, found the nearest police station, showed his ID and found a superintendent in charge of patrol management to find out the situation of the car accident, after all, the injured person was an FBI agent, and he came across the state to investigate the case, there are too many possibilities for this car accident, so Jimmy can only ask the superintendent to help check it.
The superintendent confirmed that Jimmy was Mark's superior, and he rushed to Los Angeles because of the accident, and did not delay the incident, and directly contacted the 911 police center, inquired about the handling of the car accident, and reported the location of the Jimmy 17th Division police station, and he would inform the patrol officer to return to their police station as soon as possible.
The Los Angeles Police Department has 21 divisions, and each division will have a divisional police station, and the patrolmen are not in the same police station, so Jimmy can only go to the corresponding police station and wait for the two patrolmen to return.
The process of the police station is almost the same, Jimmy sat in the waiting area of the police station hall and waited, and finally two patrol officers walked in from the main entrance, and walked directly to Jimmy after asking at the front desk, and the older police officer said, "Agent Yang? I'm Lawrence. ”
Jimmy got up and shook his hand: "It's me, thank you two for coming back." I'd like to ask about the circumstances of the crash, and the fact that the car was the property of the FBI's Los Angeles office, and I'd like to know about the damage. ”
Officer Lawrence nodded, "Please follow me." ”
The three of them came to an empty room next to it, the young policeman poured three glasses of water, Lawrence said: "The car accident was an accident, we found a sedan with broken windows while on patrol in the morning, and after checking it out, it was determined that it was a stolen car, and during the chase he forced a red light and crashed into your colleague's car."
At present, the person involved has been arrested and is currently in the detention center, and the stolen car and yours are temporarily sealed in the evidence parking lot. ”
Jimmy: "What about the identity of the suspect?" ”
Lawrence: "Jesse Grant, a native of Los Angeles, has no job, is a street gangster, has been in jail for many times, theft, drug trafficking, etc., there are too many such people. ”
Jimmy frowned and nodded, it seems that Mark should have just happened to run into the frieze this time, if someone really wants to deliberately create an incident, he will not arrange such a person, right? What's more, the stolen car was discovered by the patrol police in advance, and all kinds of circumstances indicate that it was an accident.
Jimmy: "Okay, I see, because my subordinates were investigating a case, and I thought someone was deliberately causing the incident." Thank you, both of you, and bother with me, can you take me to meet him? ”
Lawrence frowned: "Now? We'll be in the middle of the shift. ”
Jimmy: "Just go check it out, make sure, trouble both of you." ”
Lawrence nodded, "Okay, let's go then." ”
Lawrence left the room, chatted with the others, and left the police station with Jimmy. Jimmy took a taxi when he came, and now he is directly in the back seat of the police car, and it has been a long time since he has experienced such a cramped position, which is really uncomfortable.
Lawrence didn't bring Jesse Grant out, and Jimmy just glanced through the guardrail, a thin young white man, bald, with tattoos on his neck, and the rest was covered by clothes to see it, but just looking at his image, this was just a standard gangster kid, and he was obviously very comfortable in the detention center, worthy of a guy with a record of being in prison many times, just sitting on the bed with his legs crossed, leaning back against the wall, relaxed.
The interrogation is definitely no fun, not to mention that it was not arranged by someone, even if it was really arranged by someone else to hit Mark, he couldn't admit it, Jimmy just came to confirm the person, and since he had already seen it, he naturally ended and left.
Back at the hospital, Jimmy brings Mark some supper and asks Mark to notify the Los Angeles office and ask them to arrange for someone to handle the car.
Mark's brain hasn't recovered yet, and Jimmy hasn't given him any more headaches, so he went back to the hotel and checked in and took the information that Mark checked before, and there were still a lot of information, after all, the Hareton family had a lot of assets, and it was a bit of trouble to get it done.
For Jimmy, he is completely unfamiliar with the investigation of the financial industry, especially since he just wanted to do it casually, but now it has become a matter of doing it himself, which is still very troublesome.
The Hareton family started in the construction industry, and there are many construction and materials-related companies under its name, and it is also involved in finance, and there is a small and medium-sized financial services company under the foundation, which is also the investment wealth management company of the foundation, with billions of assets under management.
But it's not a big problem, even if you're not familiar with these, it's okay to just threaten him.
The next day, Jimmy went directly to the Hareton Foundation with the materials, essentially to make trouble, and Jimmy was not so polite, and directly showed his ID to the girl at the front desk, asking to meet the current top management of the foundation.
Maybe Mark was more polite before, the other party directly rejected Jimmy, he had to make an appointment first, Jimmy was not polite, he slapped the table directly, if he couldn't see anyone today, next time he would bring someone from the IRS and the SEC, and they would bear all the consequences.
The IRS is familiar to everyone, once it comes to tax issues, the foundation will definitely peel off its skin, as for the SEC, this is the US Securities and Exchange Commission, for a foundation, if it is suspected of securities fraud or other misconduct related to the securities market, the SEC will definitely make them jump for a long time, and if they want to appease down, they will definitely cut off a lot of meat, as for saying that they have no misconduct, it is absolutely impossible to think about it with their heels.
The girls at the front desk were stupid, she didn't think that the Chinese FBI agent in front of her was so tough, so she got up and left the front desk and walked into the company.
Jimmy shrugged and just stared at her as she walked to one of the offices inside, and then the people in the office led her to the other, and soon she returned and took Jimmy to the CEO's office.
The former CEO Hareton is dead, and the current interim CEO is his wife, originally Jimmy thought that he would not see anyone, maybe only one high-level person would see him, but she was really in the office, you must know that Mrs. Hareton had controlled it before and asked to cooperate with the kidnapping and imprisonment case, he didn't expect the other party to return to Los Angeles so soon.
Jimmy: "Mrs. Harriton, I'm FBI agent Jimmy Young. ”
Mrs. Hareton looked at Jimmy expressionlessly, and anyone who was threatened by Jimmy like this would not be happy: "I know you, is there a clue to my husband's death?" ”
Jimmy: "Sure, there are some clues, but we can't release them yet. I'm here this time to ask you to cooperate and provide information about Mr. Hariton's assets and competitors, and although it's not polite to say that, I think Mrs. Hariton should also hope that we can find the mastermind as soon as possible, for the biggest beneficiary of Mr. Hariton's death, I wonder if Mrs. Hareton has any ideas? ”
Mrs. Hareton is not an ordinary housewife, according to her profile, she was also a business elite before marrying Hareton, with her own company and a resume from a well-known school to ensure that the other party can understand Jimmy's words.
Mrs. Hareton was surprised and said, "You mean, he was murdered by his own people?" What about the murderer? ”
Jimmy: "All I can say is that the killer is professional, and such a person would not theoretically have a direct antagonistic relationship with Mr. Hareton. ”
Mrs. Hareton bit her lower lip and thought, Jimmy just stood in front of her desk and stared at her, and soon Mrs. Hareton opened a drawer and took out a notepad, wrote some names on it and gave it to Jimmy: "These are the names of some of the shareholders I know, and I think it should be of some help to your investigation." ”
Jimmy glanced at it and shook his head, "Mrs. Harriton, I think you misunderstood me, I don't just want to get the list, I need further information, whoever is the biggest beneficiary has the greatest chance, you should be able to understand what I mean." ”
Mrs. Hareton looked embarrassed and lowered her voice slightly, "I'm sorry, but my husband handled the company-level matters before, and I can't provide you with more clues for the time being." ”
Jimmy nodded: "Then it's going to be hard for Mrs. Harriton, I hope you can sort out a piece of information for me in the next few days, in addition, I need the list of shareholders and other information of several other companies under your name, and you can provide this as soon as possible." ”
Mrs. Hareton nodded, got up and escorted Jimmy out of the company door, before turning back to her office.
The killing of the head of the family is definitely not a trivial matter, for business opponents, sometimes humane destruction is also one of their options, Jimmy's words just now reminded Mrs. Hareton that maybe the people behind the scenes are not opponents, but their own people, you must know that the people who can climb to the top here, who have not stepped on a few difficult opponents, even if everyone is on one side, there are many disputes.
Mrs. Hareton sat in the office and thought about it for a while, then pressed the intercom button to let the secretary outside the door notify a few people to come over for a meeting, and she also began to flip through the phone to communicate with people, and then she was going to be busy.
Jimmy set a fire and left, as for who the fire will burn, anyway, it has nothing to do with Jimmy, some people may have a thief's heart but not a thief's guts, but in this case they will be the best back-breakers.
Mark didn't know what Jimmy was thinking, so his investigation in the previous few days was all the company under Hariton's name, and communicated with their person in charge to confirm the company's situation and competitors, Jimmy originally wanted to mess with the troubled waters like this, but he didn't expect to see Mrs. Hareton here, it would be simpler, as a directly related person, Mrs. Hareton is definitely motivated to cooperate with Jimmy to complete this task, he only needs to push a little and guide, and Mrs. Hareton will definitely fall into the pit.
However, this is also a little bit unpleasant, this is only related to the people on Harriton's side, his network is not so easy to mobilize, and he needs to think about how to add some more chips.
When Dave came to Jimmy in person, he already knew that the people behind him were trying to promote something, and he was going to be ready to be counterattacked, especially since this case was originally promoted by him, so he naturally knew that all the investigations were useless now, but the others didn't know, they hoped that Jimmy's investigation could affect the targets or groups they specified, and they would even suspect that it was one or two of them who instigated it, no matter what their thoughts were, they all hoped that Jimmy would continue the investigation at their pace.
Jimmy will let them easily get the results they want, the phrase "being rich and unkind" is almost the same anywhere, anyway, they won't really arrest them to take the blame, it's not bad to make them mess up for a while, for Jimmy, this is also a rare thing in his experience to do casually, his interest is not small now, as for this bombing case, he didn't plan to solve the case, and the so-called careful investigation just hopes to use his own experience to verify how professional the professionals are.
It will take some time for things to start fermenting on Mrs. Harriton's side, and Jimmy returns to the hospital to visit Mark, and directly arranges for him to return to New York to recuperate later, and he will not be involved in the investigation here.
Mark was a little frustrated, but he didn't refuse Jimmy's arrangement, in fact, Mark's confidence in Jimmy was higher than Jimmy himself, and he would deal with it sooner than investigating it himself.
As Jimmy expected, only three days later he received a phone call from the hotel informing him that someone had sent him an envelope, but Jimmy had already gone out for the weekend with Nia, so he had to temporarily store the locker at the hotel front desk and wait for him to come back to deal with it.
According to Dave's opinion, Jimmy slowed down his speed to deal with the case, and when he chatted with Nia on the phone, he knew that he was in Los Angeles, so he took advantage of the break to fly directly to Los Angeles to play.
Hollywood, Griffith Observatory, Venice Beach, time is limited, and they haven't moved around a few places on weekends.
After sending Nia away, Jimmy returned to the hotel, got the envelope from the front desk, and went back to the room to open it, which only contained a storage box address and a key. (End of chapter)
