Looking at the white man in the cap on the screen who was cheering up a green Chevrolet Cruz, Jack checked the license plate number to confirm that it was Carl Stubbs's.

It's a pity that the man is very cautious and has been consciously avoiding the camera, and Jack can only see the lower half of the white man's face blocked by a peaked cap, and he can't see clearly

"Notice the movement of his right hand, he puts his hand on the rack of the gas gun." Hannah bites into a beef jerky in her mouth and pokes the screen.

Jack was overjoyed, although it was a week ago, but he quickly pointed out the window to the gas station owner at this location, "Man, is this self-service gas dispenser over there the one?" ”

The chubby white old man nodded subconsciously, and when he turned his head again, there was no one in front of him, only the bell on the door kept shaking, making a crisp bell.

"Jubal, I need you to send the best fingerprint team over immediately."

An hour later, when Jack and Hannah returned to the operations center, Jubal's loud voice echoed throughout the operations center, "Okay guys, thanks to Jack and Hannah's cleverness, the fingerprints found at the gas station matched this person." ”

He walked to the front of the large conference room and pointed to the big screen, "Sam Givens, you can confirm that he is one of the gunmen on the school bus, a veteran, the right height, and most importantly, he has lost a little finger in his left hand."

Givens had been in prison for 10 years for armed robbery, and thanks to some people, he was released from prison not long ago, and the agent who arrested him was none other than Jace Lacroix, the director of operations for our FBI's Most Wanted Criminals Division. ”

As he spoke, he reached out to the glass door of his office and made an inviting gesture, "Let's welcome Agent Lacroix, as Givens' old rival, we hope he can catch that guy again." ”

As he spoke, Dana Moge walked into the combat center with a middle-aged white man in his forties with an angular face and a striking square forehead.

Jubal's voice was high-pitched, and his mood seemed to be unusually excited, "Ladies and gentlemen, Jess Lacroix, welcome to our top masters. ”

Hannah quietly poked Jack with her elbow and whispered, "Isn't Jubal's performance a little too much?" ”

Jack agreed, "I bet he and that Agent Lacroix must be old friends, but maybe a little bit of a frustration." ”

Agent Lacroix, who was walking beside the female boss, looked a little embarrassed, and Jubal's "killing" really raised him a little high, but he still took the initiative to step forward, put a box of documents in his hand on the table, and shook Jubal's hand.

The two stood together, he was half a head shorter than Jubal, but his momentum was not lost at all.

"It's a pleasure to see you again, Jubal."

"Me too, thank you for coming, I know your group is very busy." Jubal made a small joke, and his eyes were filled with the joy of seeing his old friend again.

"26 children are missing, and I have to squeeze out time even for them, but my team members can't get there for the time being, they still have several cases on hand."

Agent Lacroix's words made Jubal's face serious again, "That's right, but you're enough, we don't have a shortage of excellent field agents here." ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and motioned to Jack and Hannah on the side, "Agent Jack Tawol and Agent Hannah Stephens." ”

"Hello." Agent Lacroix took turns shaking hands with the two, and when he arrived at Jack, he subconsciously paused in shaking hands, "Is that Jack Tavole?" I thought that old boy from Rosie would keep you in his hands all the time, but I didn't expect to see you in New York. ”

As he spoke, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Dana Moge, with a look of sudden realization, in exchange for a roll of the other party's eyes.

The agent is also a very interesting person, and Jack also feels an old-school tough guy detective style in him, and it seems that the phrase "like things come together" can be applied everywhere.

After a brief exchange of politeness, Agent Lacroix went to review the information, while Jubal briefed Jack and Hannah on the latest situation.

"The New Jersey office just raided Sam Givens' home in Newark and found nothing, the search continues, but nothing of value has been found yet, and it looks like it's been uninhabited for a long time, at least for a month or two."

"Where's the phone?" Lacroix, who was wearing a pair of reading glasses and looking down to read the information, suddenly looked up and asked.

"Uh, it was down a week ago."

"Credit card and ATM withdrawal history?"

"The last withdrawal was two days in the Bronx, and the details are still being investigated, but as you know, that kind of investigation took a long time."

Listening to Jubal's answer, Lacroix looked back at the busy combat center, a look of envy flashed in his eyes, and he sighed, "You haven't become an old man at all, or everything follows the evidence." ”

Jubal immediately pointed at Jack, "You're wrong, we still have Rosie's disciples, who are also good at psychological profiling." ”

"Well, what about Givens' girlfriend?" Lacroix was noncommittal, but the question made Jubal stunned, "What kind of girlfriend?" Didn't you shoot his ex-girlfriend to death? ”

"I don't know her name or where he lives, but I know Givens will definitely find himself another girlfriend when he gets out of prison." Lacroix explained.

"Are you sure? Why? Jubal continued to stutter, subconsciously looking back at the analysts, which was an important clue that the analysts should not have missed when investigating the suspect's background.

"Sorry, we really didn't find any clues that Sam Givens had a female partner or a live-in girlfriend." One analyst looked up and replied, "I'll check right away to see if there's anything missing." ”

Lacroix pulled out one of the materials he had brought and handed it to Jack, "This is my psychological profile of Givens, he is an orphan who will constantly seek an assertive woman to take care of himself, so he will definitely find himself a girlfriend first when he gets out of prison, and he will be older than him." ”

"Well, that's all your guess, isn't it? Uh, Jack? Jubal subconsciously retorted, but immediately turned his head to look at Jack, who had just opened the information, as if he wanted to get verification.

Jack rolled his eyes at him, he had heard the name Sam Givens less than ten minutes ago, and the information had just arrived, and although he was not Rossi's peer, he should also be a senior psychologist, what was Jubal doing.

He took two steps back without a trace, stood beside Dana Moge, who was always standing on the side and watching the play, looked at the two people in front of him who had a faint taste of fighting, and asked in a low voice.

"Did these two guys date before or what? How did I smell an unusual smell. ”

The female boss was hooked by Jack's little joke, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, "They used to be a pair, one followed factual evidence, and the other followed reasoning intuition, so."

"Hiss sounds like a call." Jack sighed, and at the same time he was concentrating on two things, constantly flipping through the information in his hand.

It is more information than a notebook, recording the bits and pieces of Lacroix's pursuit of Sam Givens, who, as Jack expected, is also a master of psychology.

Just as Jack was struggling with whether to interrupt the strange way of reminiscing about the past of the two old men in front of him, and to support Lacroix's opinion in passing, the analyst who had spoken before raised his hand.

"Sir, I may have made some discoveries here."

The case is the most important, Jubal didn't care about continuing to argue, and hurriedly turned around, "What? ”

"I reviewed a report from Givens' parole officer, who made an unannounced home visit shortly after his release from prison, and the report said that Givens was with a woman named Terry Prader."

The analyst pulled up a driver's license on the screen, and the ID photo showed a white blonde woman.

"That's her! This is Sam Givens' girlfriend. Lacroix took off his reading glasses and looked at the screen, and said it in a nutshell.

"Why?" Jubal couldn't understand why he was so sure.

Jack sighed, pulled out a photograph from the profile and handed it to Jubal, "Because she looks very much like Givens' mother, with blond hair and blue eyes, slightly long cheeks but a round chin. ”

"You win, old fellow, I owe you a glass of wine when the case is over." Jubal gestured to his old partner, turned and began to give orders.
