"He had a gunshot wound and couldn't run far." Hannah kissed Jack on the lips and comforted him, feeling only funny in his heart, usually seeing him always look full of confidence and confidence, and now this angry scene is really rare to see.

"Tsk, I really envy you two." Danny Regan, who had just arrived just in time, came from the other side of the alley with a wicked smile on his face, put away his pistol, and then pointed to the corner of his mouth, indicating that Jack had a lipstick stain on it.

Hannah had just changed her clothes, and she hadn't had time to remove her flaming red lip makeup.

Jack gave him an angry look, took the wet tissue from Hannah's hand, and helped her wipe off the lipstick that was a little mushy, and then turned over and wiped the corners of his mouth casually.

I don't know where this guy came from to laugh at himself, when everyone gathers, he can't help but talk to his wife Linda, and I don't know that I think they are a newlywed couple instead of an old husband and wife who have been married for more than ten years.

"Givens was shot in the right shoulder blade and needs to be notified immediately by your NYPD to hospitals and emergency centers across the city."

Jack paused, then added, "Let the patrolmen warn those underground clinics, oh, and pet hospitals and morticians, the kind of people who should know how to get medical resources out of the police's eyes." ”

Speaking of business, Danny's face became serious, "No problem, there will be a large team of police officers arriving later, since this guy is haunting here, maybe those kidnapped children are nearby, and the NYPD will search this apartment building and the surrounding area door to door." ”

Leaving the rest to Danny and the men he had brought, Jack and Hannah got back in the car and headed towards the federal building, with less than an hour to go until the kidnappers had asked for the time they had requested, and they had to go back to see if there was any new news.

After driving two kilometers, the traffic in front began to become congested again, and Jack helplessly spread his hands to Hannah in the passenger seat and turned on the hidden police lights.

Just at this moment, the mobile phone rang, Jack pressed the call, and Jubal's voice rang, "The anonymous mobile phone you found just now is turned on, and we have located the location of Givens." ”

Jack couldn't help but perk up, smiled and slapped his hands with Hannah, "Where is he?" We'll get there now. ”

"Five blocks to the south and three blocks to the west, you're moving north, you should be able to catch up and stop him." Jack's Dodge Hellcat has an FBI positioning, and Jubal can clearly see the relative position of the two sides on the big screen.

"Sit tight Hannah." Jack turned on the siren after speaking, then slammed the steering wheel and pulled the handbrake, and the Dodge Hellcat made a beautiful drift U-turn and headed west.

"Can you confirm that dark gray Chevrolet through road surveillance?"

"I haven't been able to find the car for the time being, keep my eyes open, the other party may change cars." Jubal reminded.

Ten minutes later, the speeding Hellcat made another beautiful drifting corner, turned left at an intersection, and Jubal's voice on the phone became faster, "The other party should be directly in front of you, you are walking in the opposite direction now, do you see anything?" ”

"Huh?" Jack looked at the oncoming large garbage truck and looked at Hannah suspiciously, who also had question marks in his eyes.

The two men took out their guns and got out of the car, relying on the bulletproof door to cover the gun, and pointed their guns at the two municipal workers in the cab.

"FBI, get out of the car and put your hands where we can see." With Hannah's yell, two municipal workers on the garbage truck with yellow-green reflective strips on their uniforms looked confused, obediently got out of the car and put their hands on the bumper of the truck.

Although he didn't feel that the two of them were disguised bandits, Jack cautiously stepped forward to search his body to confirm that the other party was not carrying a gun, and then took out his mobile phone to bring up Givens's photo.

"Have you seen this man?"

"Not yet, sir."

"Is there anyone else in the car?"

"Just the two of us."

Two Latino municipal workers are well-behaved and distressing, with their hands on the bumper in front of the hood, not daring to move.

Jack didn't dare to let his guard down, and it was not surprising that the gang had taken away other people's cars by pretending to be bank debt collectors and municipal workers.

Hannah had already circled around the garbage truck and shook her head at Jack, "There's no one in the cab, there's no one under the chassis, is it possible that he threw his phone away and got loaded into the garbage truck?" ”

Jack shook his head, feeling that this is unlikely, since the other party will turn on the phone, obviously they didn't expect this phone to be tracked, and they didn't find other mobile phone boxes, and it is unlikely that they will throw it away when they run out.

Now the only place where people can hide is the garbage compartment in the back," you watch the two of them here. Jack turned his head to Hannah and motioned for her to stay still, walked to the back of the car, and climbed into the car with two clicks.

Under several large bags of garbage, a corpse covered in blood was pressed, it was Gilvins, who had been shot by him before.

——

The war center was as noisy as ever, the phone was ringing non-stop, everyone was nervously busy, and Dana Moge, who was standing in the corridor, had a rather unkind face.

Seeing the two return, Jubal stepped forward and patted Jack on the shoulder, shook his head and did not speak, and walked over to Agent Lacroix and talked to him in a low voice.

"What the hell is going on, how did Givens die in a garbage truck." The female boss didn't mean to blame Jack, but now the only clue was cut off like this, and she was inevitably in a bad mood.

"It's not clear exactly what happened, the NYPD just found a trash can with a lot of blood on it along the path of the garbage truck, which is supposed to be the reason why he was loaded into the garbage truck, but I haven't figured out why this guy hid in the trash can after abandoning the car."

Jack only felt that his brain hurt, how could he encounter some bad things that didn't follow the routine today, the anonymous mobile phone was indeed on the other party, but there was no call record on it.

"Then his car should be near the trash can, didn't you find it?" The female boss asked strangely.

Hannah shook her head, "No, the NYPD searched two neighborhoods and found nothing, Detective Danny Reagan is mobilizing the city's patrol officers to search for it." ”

"So we're back to square one now, and we didn't find any of the school buses, we didn't find the children, we just had a video asking for ransom."

Dana Moge looked at the big screen, took a deep breath, and regained her spirits, "Play that video again." ”

An otaku technician from the IT logistics department said while tapping on the keyboard, "The video files have been processed, some of the underlying data has been deleted, and we can't even confirm whether the shooting tool is a camera or a mobile phone."

The other party is a proficient computer master, and the IP address of the uploaded attachment comes from a proxy server in Cyprus, which I have been trying to track, and has followed a bunch of 'broilers' around the world more than a dozen times, and to be honest, there is little hope. ”

The video is played again as he speaks, and a man in a black hood grabs a boy about 10 years old and appears in front of the camera.

The video was not long, and the man in the black hood said less than three sentences in total, the first sentence was a threat, and after speaking, he pulled the little boy in front of the camera, and then notified the governor's office to prepare a million dollars in cash, and contacted him again in an hour and a half.

The video pauses, the picture freezes, and a female analyst points at the screen with a laser pointer.

"We tried to identify the location, but there was no natural light around and there was no floor, so it was difficult to tell if it was a bedroom or a basement, and the backdrop behind them was a hanging white double bed sheet, with no obvious features or signage.

So, while I hate to say that, the location can be anywhere, and I'm sorry, to be honest, we weren't able to help. ”

The female analyst's expression was a little guilty, and Dana Moge was not the one who took down the anger, but put her arm around her shoulder as a sign of comfort.

"Since we lack factual evidence, it's your turn, old partner, to do what you do best." Jubal forced Jace Lacroix forward, who had a laughing and crying expression on his face.

"Okay, okay." Jace Lacroix stood beside Jack and stood side by side with him, "This hooded man is a commanding figure, accustomed to being in control, judging by the speed of his speech, his phrasing, and the tone of his voice, what do you think?" Agent Tawolle, oh yes, can I call you Jack? ”

"Of course, Agent Lacroix, there's no problem with your judgment." Jack smiled in response, this man was far superior to him in terms of appearance and age, and his seniority in the FBI, which was a very friendly gesture.

"Thank you, Jack." Lacroix nodded in response, and then changed his tone slightly, "That means he's not Sam Givens."

The Sam I know doesn't have that much education and no such self-confidence, so this guy is the one we're really looking for. ”

Jubal scratched his head subconsciously, "Although you always have a way to make me irritable, I have never doubted your ability in this regard. ”

He then turned to the listening analysts and exclaimed, "OK, this guy is the leader, and Givens is just one of the team."

That means new bosses, new motivations, and new patterns of behavior, and damn it, I thought the shit that happened today was puzzling enough. ”

"Wait a minute, is that kid in the video named Owen Jemerson?"

Jack, who had been staring at the screen, always felt that the child's behavior in front of the video was a little strange, although he did look scared, especially the moment when he was pushed to the camera by the back collar, but he seemed to be afraid of not only the kidnapper, but also afraid of being found out some secret.
