Chapter 559: Dinner with the Cassells

Jack had been thinking about the case on the way here, which was also a disguised reminder to him, although the simple and crude methods were very cool, but it was inevitable that he would be on the same page with those difficult defense lawyers in the future.

When he was in LAPD, he had seen Angela Lopez's lawyer husband, how difficult Wesley's guy was, but fortunately, this thing was later tamed by Angela, and it was his own side.

In the future, he will inevitably deal with those scumbags in high society, and when the time comes, he may have to face a whole team of elite lawyers, except for trying to end the case in the arrest process (shooting), he really hasn't thought about the coping strategy in this regard.

"Remember what we found in that van at the time?" Jack asked, sorting out his thoughts in his head.

Danny didn't understand what he was trying to say, "You mean those communion dresses and prayer candles and stuff like that?" ”

"Yes, he wants to make a ritual to satisfy his perverted desires, right?" Jack's mind flashed with inspiration, isn't this what he's always been good at, and the speed of his speech became faster.

"Don't you think this god's chatter is a good fit for a serial killer?"

Danny's eyes lit up, "It makes sense, people don't live to be forty or fifty years old, and when they wake up, they suddenly become a sexual pervert, do you think he may have other criminal records?" ”

"We can check where he has been before, and compare whether there are similar unsolved cases in the local area, Teresa This case we can't do anything about him, other cases may be okay."

Jack slapped Jubal and lifted his spirits, "I can get someone to help, I know who is good at checking this, and it just so happens that she has the authority too." ”

——

"Hi dear, miss me?" Jack was secretly glad that when he went back to Los Angeles before, he didn't forget to fill the refrigerator in the big office for BAU's friends, and also made some cute and delicious little desserts for Garcia.

"Hey, my dream sweetheart, missed me?" Garcia's response was as Garcia as ever.

"Ahem" Jack almost choked himself to death, he really didn't fit this greasy style, and quickly got down to business.

"No problem, it's a trivial matter, but I need priority reading for the next part of Detective Jack." Garcia made the offer.

"As long as I can do it, I'll introduce the prototype of that big muscle bully to you."

Jack was running the train with his mouth full, and the result was so casual that he remembered that he hadn't been in contact with Jack Reicher for a long time, and turned back to his brother to ask if this guy who was running all over the map would be passing by New York recently.

Danny went to deliver a barbecue to his father, Jack sent him a message to reassure him, he drove around the streets, New York itself is not famous for its food, but it brings together elites from all over the world, and all kinds of different tastes from various countries can be found locally.

Jack is also bad at learning now, parking can't go to those expensive parking lots, specifically looking for temporary parking areas on the side of the road, as long as you don't block the fire escape and other towed trucks, if you are ticketed, the logistics department will naturally help deal with it.

In addition, Danny also gave him a few NYPD family cards, even if he drove the firebird out, he didn't have to worry, some small violations were directly let go, in this regard, the NYPD's family card is better than LAPD's.

Feeling that the time was almost up, Jack found a place to park and entered a French restaurant on the Hudson River, where Rick Cassel had asked him to eat that evening.

Probably guessed what this guy was looking for, but he thought he might not be able to help.

"Please, every artist needs his muse, I can only ask you for help." Kassel folded his hands in prayer.

"So, don't you really mind if your dad gets you a stepmother?" Jack ignored the guy and instead raised his glass to Alexis and winked his eyes.

"In fact, if it was the Beckett detective, my first impression of her would have been pretty good." Alexis smiled and raised the juice in her hand and clinked glasses with Jack.

I really want to have such an intimate little padded jacket, the more Jie looks at the unreliable dad next to her, the more unpleasant it is, if he is a black-hearted villain, he must find a way to get rid of this guy and snatch the little padded jacket.

Cassel's face was a little embarrassed, "I'm serious, I've even finished the character setting, and now I just need a little inspiration"

"Nikki Hitt, huh? I already know. "I feel that this guy is really not afraid of death, and Beckett wants to know if the heroine based on her is given such a name, will he break his leg with one shot.

"And your little inspiration is to ask me to convince the NYPD Department to let you follow Detective Beckett for some work." As he spoke, Jack raised his hands and put two fingers to his ear and bent them in quotation marks.

“.‘ Surveys' work? ”

"Yes, that's right, I can sign a waiver agreement, I even have body armor ready." Kassel's eyes lit up, and he turned on his phone to show a selfie of him wearing body armor.

This body armor is actually a custom model, why do you say that, because other people's body armor is either "SWAT", "NYPD" or "FBI" that Jack often wears.

And the body armor this one was wearing had a big "WRITER" written on it.

Jack sighed heavily, thinking of what happened before, "For Alexis's previous risk for the FBI, I'm sure I'll help, but I heard that even His Excellency the Mayor is a fan of your books, why don't you just go to our mayor?" ”

"Uh," Cassel looked around mysteriously and whispered, "I've heard some recent rumors that the mayor's relationship with the NYPD is a little strained, and that Director Reagan, while outwardly neutral on both parties, is privately moving closer to the Elephants. ”

It seems that although writers are a little different from journalists, they are also well-informed.

Jack didn't go on the subject, and the three of them continued to talk about New York and enjoy the food.

I don't know if it's because I've been with John's old rookie for a long time, or if the two of them are the same actor in the original world, which leads to a somewhat similar relationship between these two guys, it's really hard for Kassel to really hate him.

Coupled with the fact that there is a cute Alexis by his side, Jack's words are a little more difficult, and he talks about the second new book he is preparing.

"Have you ever been through a plane crash? Ever been at war with terrorists? And the Navy SEALs? Cassel was so envious that his eyes were red, the guy in front of him was simply full of stories, and the serial killer or something was enough to attract attention, but he didn't expect there to be such an "adventure".

That's right, Jack's second book is about his experiences on the island of Jolo, plane crashes, rainforests, terrorists, hostage-taking, PMCs, and Navy SEALs.

Alexis also looked interested, and the curious light in her eyes as she looked at Jack.

The process of French food was originally long, the three of them chatted while eating, and the meal was eaten late at night, and the father and daughter who were still satisfied with listening to the story were sent to the taxi, and Jack finally reminded Cassel.

"Even if the NYPD agrees with your bad idea, I suggest that you communicate with Detective Becket first, as a minimum of respect."

He remembered that in the original play, Beckett first took the initiative to ask Cassel for help because of a case, but now it is obvious that because of himself, the process has been disrupted, and he doesn't know if that case will happen.

"I'll go to Precinct 12 next Monday to find her, oh yes, I almost forgot about that." Kassel pulled out an invitation.

"Because of the accident last time, the publishing house is going to hold another drinking party, just next Monday, please be sure to attend."

Jack took the invitation, waved goodbye to the Kassel father and daughter, turned around and was about to put away the invitation, but saw a familiar figure on the side of the road.

Chief Frank Reagan, dressed in a formal suit, was walking to the side of the road with a beautiful woman in a sexy black evening gown, reaching out to stop a taxi.

Coincidentally, this somewhat elderly beauty Jack also knew the reporter who was the same reporter and news host Miss Davidson who I met at the open-air press conference in Police Square before.

Tsk, Jack watched Frank Regan very gentlemanly help Miss Davidson open the back door, put her in the car, leaned into the car and kissed each other goodnight, and then closed the door and watched the taxi leave, and his heart was quite crying and laughing.

Sure enough, there is no coincidence in the adult world, he had told Dana Moge his guess before, that Miss Davidson might be Frank Regan's person, but he didn't expect it to be confirmed so quickly.

Judging from the intimate attitude of these two people, this Miss Davidson is not only Director Reagan's person, but also the kind in every sense.

After watching this scene, Jack threw away the car keys in his hand, turned around and left, but he didn't expect that he would inadvertently break a little secret just for a meal.

I've heard Danny mention before that his mother has long since passed away, and his father has been single in recent years, so it's natural to go out on a date.

Just thinking of the identity of Miss Davidson, Jack couldn't help but wonder, if the outside world knew that the secret lover of the director of the NYPD was a reporter, I was afraid that it would cause a storm, it seems that this director is also a wonderful person, and likes to play with fire.
