"The damn world, there are 16 registered sexual assaulters living near an ordinary community." Danny walked into the office with a thick stack of materials and a loud grumble.

"Any news on the white van's clues?" Jack asked.

"There was a false report in Astoria, it didn't match, it was an Asian family, and when the case is over, I'm going to talk to the racist who is discriminating."

Danny sent information about the sexual assaulters to several patrol officers on standby, urging them to verify the perverted alibi as soon as possible.

"Jack, follow me." Dana Moge appeared at the door at some point, bowing slightly at Jack.

"Ah, okay." Jack put down the investigation materials in his hand and followed.

The female boss walked all the way out of the police station and in the direction of the police square, "Frank has risen step by step from an ordinary patrol officer to his current position, and he has received far less support in the upper echelons than among the citizens."

Jack didn't say a word, he listened quietly behind her, he didn't know why his boss was telling him this, but he knew that as he came into contact with all aspects of the world, politics would definitely not be able to escape.

When he went to Washington, D.C. to receive the medal before, he found that the FBI director of this world was obviously not the one he had seen on the Internet in his previous life, but he was also a little familiar, but he didn't know which American drama or movie it was.

This also reminded Jack that the difference between the two worlds is still quite big, and he wants to be like Rosie, to be able to have a transcendent position in the bureau, and there are still many things to learn.

There is an old saying about Seris, who knows the times. Bah. It is a good swimmer who drowns in the water, but it is completely impermeable, and he will only die faster if he falls into the water.

Although he is now just a senior agent, and he is not involved in political siding and other issues, people always have to grow, and he can't hide under the big tree of Rossi forever.

As a person with a plug-in, I don't think about eternal life or anything for the time being, but Jack is at least confident that he will live past all the people he knows, and naturally he has to consider some long-term issues.

It's hard to say whether he will stay in the FBI for the rest of his life, he doesn't have the heart to be Hoover, but in this country, if you want to live a more accessible life, you can't just have money, and a certain social status or background is also necessary.

Jack, who is good at dancing with long sleeves or something, can't do it, but he doesn't reject making some friends with strength and background, because many people seem strange, but they are not so strange to him.

For example, Danny Reagan and his big family, although Jack has not watched this American drama, he remembers a little bit these days, and it seems to be a drama about a police family in New York.

In addition, Danny Regan's face is also quite familiar to him, the second lieutenant of E Company in "Band of Brothers" Carwood Ripton.

When he searched for his dad Frank Reagan on the Internet, he couldn't laugh or cry, this is not Monica's older ex-boyfriend in "Friends" - "Uncle Charlie", the two delicately groomed mustaches on his face are really impressive.

The original actor played in the old version of "Hawaiian Detective" was also one of Jack's childhood memories of the amorous private investigator in a fancy shirt and driving a convertible Ferrari.

Now that he knows this, Jack can naturally make friends with the positive characters in these "dramas" without any psychological burden, just like when he recognized a certain "accounting assassin" at a glance, he couldn't wait to extend an olive branch to the other party.

Follow the female boss across the street to the police plaza opposite the NYPD headquarters building, and see that the steps are already crowded with reporters and photographers.

In the center of the crowd was a podium engraved with the NYPD police logo, and in front of the podium was filled with microphones with the logos of various media and television stations, and it was the same Director Frank Reagan standing on the stage.

In what his boss had just said, Jack learned that the commissioner was her partner in the NYPD, and both sides agreed that making full use of each other's resources to reduce the crime rate was a top priority, and that the power struggle between the federal and state governments was a matter for politicians.

To some extent, they are an alliance, and although Frank Reagan has some help and deep connections in the police department by virtue of his father's status as the director of the bureau, he still lacks roots at the top, especially in politics.

After all, the old man of his family has been retired for almost 20 years, and the old guys of the year have long come down, and this one has basically come to this point with his own strength.

Although Frank Reagan is the highest-ranking chief of department in the NYPD police department, he is responsible for all matters within the NYPD system, large and small, and wears a four-star badge.

But in fact, there is another (Police Commission) above him, which can be called the chief of police or the police commissioner, which is a civilian position, assigned by the mayor of New York, and changed every five years, which can be regarded as a tool for His Excellency the mayor to check and balance the NYPD.

The Commissioner of Police is not responsible for the specifics of the NYPD, and theoretically does not even need to have police experience, if the Commissioner has not worked in the NYPD before being assigned, is not even qualified to wear a police uniform, and does not have law enforcement powers.

It can also be seen that not only the relationship between the powerful leaders promoted from within the NYPD, such as Frank Reagan, and the politicians who rotate feng shui will not always be good, but even the ordinary police officers below are no different.

There have been incidents of NYPD officers carrying coffins to the streets to protest against low salaries, and at the funeral of the fallen police officers, the mayor turned around en masse to express their protest.

Now that the mayor has been advocating for the NYPD's budget cuts as soon as he takes office, the relationship with the NYPD will naturally not be very harmonious, and the relationship with Frank Regan, the director, is also very delicate.

The mayor needs support, he needs to serve his funders, he needs to cover up scandals, and the NYPD, the largest police department in the United States, needs to allocate funds, needs to fight crime, and needs to maintain its strength to gain more voice.

So the two sides played a political game like a Tai Chi pusher before, suppressing, supporting, compromising, and maneuvering. and, to attract foreign aid.

Jack was dizzy when he heard it, not that he didn't understand, but he was really not very interested in politics, behind those seemingly complicated political methods, there were nothing more than two words, he didn't want to go down to that cesspool to swim, nor did he want to be the-stirring stick in the hands of some people.

Fortunately, Dana Moge needed not a stick, but a quick knife, and the two stopped a little away from the crowd, just enough to hear Frank Reagan on stage.

At this time, the reporters below were already in a mess, raising their hands one after another, shouting the name of the bureau chief, and wanted to ask questions.

Frank Reagan ignored the guys, instead cleared his throat to himself, and then spoke, "I need to make a statement before I can answer the question."

As you know, the first hours of such a case are crucial, so I would like to request the assistance of the media to repeatedly show Teresa's photos to the public.

The task force will follow up on every clue in a timely manner, and I would like to assure the citizens that the entire NYPD will do its best to work around the clock until the girl is found. ”

Before he could finish speaking, the reporters began to gossip again, and Frank Reagan pointed to the male reporter standing at the front with the loudest voice, showing a helpless expression, "Miguel, you can ask questions." ”

The male reporter named Miguel held a shorthand notebook and said, "Chief Reagan, what do you think about the claim online that the NYPD is devoting one-third less police force to today's case than the missing child case on the Upper East Side last summer?" ”

Frank Reagan sighed silently, "Miguel, you're a professional journalist, and then you choose to trust a guy who is making up news on the Internet with a notebook, right?" ”

Amid the low laughter of the rest of the reporters, the male reporter was about to speak, but was interrupted by a female voice with a voice on the radio.

"So what do you think of the polling question about the general lack of trust in the police in the Hispanic community and the fact that crime has been slowly rising in the region?"

It was a female reporter who looked a few years older than Dana Moger and dressed as a.

"I'm not going to respond to the so-called polls, Miss Davidson." Frank Reagan also called out the other party's last name.

"But it's a fact that crime has dropped across the board in every borough of New York since I took over."

Miss Davidson, who appeared to be the same as Tyler Kelly, was also a reporter and news anchor, and then asked a somewhat pointed question.

"So what you mean can be seen as implying that the mayor's cuts to the police budget won't affect the NYPD's ability to keep citizens safe."

Frank Reagan seems to be righteous, but in fact he tactfully avoids the question, "We are not going to discuss the issue of financial appropriations today, a nine-year-old girl is missing, and the clock is ticking, what we need to do is to find Teresa immediately."

The media is asked to do their part and show as many pictures of Teresa as possible to the public. ”
