North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 512 Opportunity (Fill)

After waiting for nearly an hour, a cleaning company's van stopped behind Jimmy's car, and two young Mexicans and an old white man with a bald head got out of the car.

I don’t know if it’s the InterContinental’s rules. It seems that every time I make a call to order a meal, the people who come are a combination of old and young, and the configuration is the same in several cities.

Jimmy got out of the car, waved and said hello, and then opened the garage door, "Take care of the goods in the trunk. If it's convenient, let's get rid of this car too. It needs to be destroyed." The coin was handed to the old man, "Thank you for your hard work."

The old man said with a smile: "It's an honor to serve you. Little guys, it's time to start work."

Jimmy backed away a little, watched as they entered the garage and half closed the roller gate, spread plastic sheeting and plastic wrap on the floor, and started tidying up.

"Dingling" Jimmy's phone rang, and he walked out of the garage with the phone and answered the call, "Hi, I don't think I have a choice, I'll join. But I think we need to talk about the treatment."

Jimmy smiled: "No problem, I think we have enough time to talk about the future. When I contact you, see you."

Although the person on the other end of the line didn't say their name, Jimmy could still recognize Dylan's voice.

Jimmy just asked about his intentions before, and didn't say what he was preparing for him, so judging from his choice now, even hell is more acceptable than prison.

He opted in without even negotiating pay, and it seemed like Jimmy was putting a little too much pressure on the night's talk.

The garage was cleaned up, and the old man asked a young man to drive the car away, and then he said goodbye to Jimmy and left.The finishing touches on Mahone's side are finally over, and he can rest assured that if the corpse is left in the trunk for another two days, it will not be able to be covered up at all.

Finally done, Jimmy drove back to the hotel.This house must be Mahone's safe house. Thinking about it, it seems that Jimmy doesn't have such a safe house yet, and it seems necessary to build one.However, the housing prices in New York are a toothache just thinking about it, so let’s think about it again.

The price of a small two-story detached house in New York is different from that in Chicago. Let alone a detached house, Jimmy’s apartment cost more than 100 million when he bought it more than two years ago. Buying this small detached house in the South Side of Chicago Dong reckoned he could buy at least two, with a lawn in the front and a small yard in the back.

However, if you build one in the Bronx or Queens, it should be much cheaper, you can consider it, and you need to think about which identity to buy.

These can be done slowly, not a big problem, if not, the CIA backup identity Tom prepared for him is also a real fake identity, which can be used directly.

In the evening, Mahone texted Jimmy, "Done."

It's crisp, no-nonsense, very good, and it shows just how capable Mahone is in his long-running Chicago.

This was a shootout in broad daylight, four people died, and it was done so quietly?Whether it's official or private, it's not easy. Jimmy couldn't achieve such an effect even in New York.

To solve the problem, at least the medical examiner's office needs to be dealt with. Three people were killed by .357 Magnum bullets. The shape of the bullet hole and the wound are completely different from his Glock. It is difficult to make them ignore this. .

It was even more troublesome to do it privately. Jimmy had already seen a policeman arrive at the scene, which was equivalent to keeping a file in the dispatch center. He wanted to get rid of the four corpses directly, and the impact would not only involve one or two departments.

Now Jimmy relies more on the ordering service of the Intercontinental Hotel to deal with the corpses, which is still unsafe, and he still needs to learn more from these old-fashioned detectives.

Regardless of how Mahone handles it, Jimmy is also in trouble.He has no experience in building a team before, and now that he has his first potential partner, he still needs to find a way to give Dylan a suitable identity and environment, otherwise, if he is only allowed to go to New York and stay idle, something will happen sooner or later.

This is not a simple matter, unlike the independent cases in movies and TV shows, which are all temporary warehouses, and now he can't let Dylan stay in the warehouse all the time.

Dylan's affairs are not in a hurry, but he still needs to prepare in advance, and this person may not be the only one behind.

Jimmy was surfing the Internet with his laptop on, when his cell phone rang, he frowned after looking at it, and connected the call, "Hughes?"

Hughes: "Where are you?"

Jimmy: "Chicago."

Hughes: "Put down what you are doing and fly to Miami, Florida immediately. Let me know when the flight is confirmed, and I will have someone pick you up at the airport and go to Palm Beach."

Jimmy: "What happened?"

Hughes: "There was an armed attack on a seaside villa there. Dave Hudson, the deputy director of our office, was also at the scene and was shot. You go to assist Deputy Director Hudson. The specific tasks will be arranged by him."

Jimmy: "Understood, I'll book tickets."

Hughes: "Pay attention to protecting yourself. There may be a lot of big people involved on the scene. Show more. This is an opportunity."

Jimmy: "I see, thank you."

Jimmy immediately packed his luggage. Although he came to Chicago empty-handed, he still bought a lot of spare things in the past few days.After thinking about it, Jimmy decided to go to Miami empty-handed.

Jimmy called to inquire about flights, but unfortunately, the last flight to Miami was only half an hour away, and he didn't have time to make it to the Chicago airport.

Holding the mobile phone and tapping on his hand, Jimmy still decided to spend more money to get it done.He had never rented a private jet, and he didn't know how to choose. After thinking about it, Jimmy opened the address book and called the bank.

The voice of the customer service representative came from the phone: "Good evening, Mr. Yang, how can I help you?"

Jimmy: "I need an emergency flight from Chicago to Palm Beach, Florida, please book a private jet for me, it will take off in about an hour."

Customer service: "Wait a moment."

Banks usually provide exclusive customer service or account managers for high-end cardholders, who can provide cardholders with professional services or other financial advice.

Jimmy has a large amount of deposits in their bank. Compared with many people who have fixed assets, Jimmy has very few fixed assets, but has a lot of cash flow. Of course, he is a high-quality customer. He has always arranged exclusive customer service, but he uses it very often. few.

After a while, the reply from the customer service came: "Mr. Yang, I have been waiting for a long time, and I have found a private jet that can complete the flight preparation in one hour. Crew salaries, airport surcharges and insurance costs, etc., total $1. Do you need to book for you?"

Jimmy: "OK, book it for me."

Customer service: "Okay, the order has been confirmed, please go to Dupage Airport on the west side of Chicago, and the captain will contact you."

Jimmy: "Thanks. Goodbye."

Jimmy went downstairs with his bag and checked out the room, called Mahone, and drove to Mahone's house.Jimmy chose to fly to Miami empty-handed, so everything else needs to be placed with Mahone. There are three black guns in his bag, which cannot be thrown around casually. Two were "borrowed" from dealers on the street, and one Got it from one of the guys watching Pam.

Jimmy rushed to the airport. Private airports are much more convenient than commercial flights. Jimmy simply confirmed his order and got on the plane to take off.

Jimmy called to inform Hughes that he had chosen to fly to Palm Beach in a private jet, which still made Hughes's mind knotted.

He just wanted Jimmy to show his face and show himself in front of high-level executives. If there is no flight at night, it is also possible to fly there in the morning, but it is only a few hours away, which is not a big deal.

Now he rushed there overnight in a private jet, which should not be the style of an FBI agent at all.Since Jimmy went straight to Palm Beach, there was no need to arrange for someone to meet him at the Miami airport.

More than three hours later, Jimmy got off the plane at Glades Airport in Palm Beach County. The taxi contacted by the rental company was already waiting at the airport, and he rushed directly to the hospital after getting in the car.

Palm Beach is a world-renowned tourist resort and the most famous billionaire vacation spot.This is one of the most expensive areas for luxury homes in the United States. The average price of a luxury home is tens of millions of dollars. The homeowners here are truly either rich or expensive.

The beautiful natural scenery, diverse cultural interweaving, and eye-catching social activities make Palm Beach a tourist destination that tourists from all over the world yearn for. Of course, it is not ruled out that many people come to see the life of the rich.

It was almost two o'clock in the morning when Jimmy arrived at the hospital. He took out his ID and asked the nurse's station to confirm his identity. Then he got Dave Hudson's ward number. It seems that the secrecy here is not bad.

There was a policeman outside the ward. Jimmy showed his ID and saw through the glass window on the door Dave Hudson, the deputy director of the office. He was lying on the hospital bed and fell asleep, and there was a middle-aged lady resting on the accompanying bed beside him. .

Jimmy knocked lightly on the door, and the accompanying lady looked at the door, got up and left the ward, "Who are you?"

Jimmy: "Ma'am, this is Jimmy Young from the FBI's Manhattan office. What's your name? How is Mr. Hudson?"

Woman: "I'm Dave's wife Lucy, glad you came. Dave was shot in the right shoulder and still hasn't woken up since surgery."

Jimmy: "Was the lady there when the shooting happened? What happened there?"

Lucy: "We came to a fundraising dinner. At about 8 o'clock in the evening, gunshots rang out in the villa. After that, the crowd was chaotic. Dave was shot. He and I hid aside and waited for the gunfire to end before the police arrived. Came to the hospital. I have absolutely no idea what happened, let Dave tell you when he wakes up."

Jimmy: "OK, I'll wait here and let me know if Mr. Hudson wakes up."

Lucy nodded: "Thank you for coming here so quickly, thank you."

Jimmy: "You're welcome. I'm right outside the door."

Lucy went back to the ward. Jimmy found the nurse's station, took a folding chair and sat outside the ward with the policeman and waited. They had already rushed over. Naturally, he had to show his attitude. No matter the big event, leaving a good impression is the most important thing.

That’s why Hughes urgently notified him to come here. Under normal circumstances, agents should be sent over during the day tomorrow. By the time they arrived at the scene, it was already afternoon. Jimmy arrived 12 hours earlier, which expressed their attitude. Very concerned.

More than half an hour later, a nurse trotted over. Jimmy turned his head and glanced at the ward. Dave seemed to have woken up.

The nurse entered the ward and called the doctor. Jimmy watched from outside the door as they checked and questioned Dave. After making sure there was nothing wrong, he walked in.

Jimmy looked at Dave, "Mr. Hudson, this is Jimmy Young."

Dave looked at Jimmy in surprise: "Jimmy? You're here so soon?"

Jimmy: "Yes, Hughes called me urgently, and I rushed over. How are you feeling?"

Dave glanced over his right shoulder, "No problem, have you heard about the case?"

Jimmy: "Not yet. I rushed directly from the airport to the hospital and haven't contacted the police yet. Mr. Hudson, what happened?"

Dave: "My wife and I came to a fundraiser dinner, it was all normal, no accidents, then there was a shootout at the villa and I was shot. It was chaotic and the number of shooters was uncertain because the people who were there Many have bodyguards."

Jimmy: "What do I need to do?"

Dave: "There's nothing to do for now, just wait, I need a contact to confirm."

Jimmy: "Okay, I'm right outside the door."

Dave nodded, Jimmy turned and left, and Lucy came to Dave's bed and held Dave's hand.

It can be seen that Dave was still very surprised when he saw Jimmy. The distance between New York and Palm Beach is not close. It was definitely a surprise to see the agents from his office arrive at the scene after being shot.

After closing the door of the ward, Jimmy couldn't hear what Dave and Lucy were talking about outside. Their voices were very low, and Jimmy could only see the movements of the two through his mind's eyes.

The shooting case this time is not that simple. This is Palm Beach, and there are many billionaires. A gun battle in this kind of place, whether there are dead or not, is a big event.

It's not convenient for Jimmy to check the news now, and there is no TV to watch here in the hospital, but it is estimated that the news should have been released by now.

Jimmy looked at the policeman next to him, "What's your name?"

Cop: "Anthony Rodriguez, Palm Beach Police Department."

Jimmy: "Is there any result in the investigation of the shooting now?"

Anthony: "I don't know, I was just put in to protect the victim."

Jimmy: "How many other people were injured?"

Anthony: "Sorry, I can't disclose relevant information, you can contact the police station."

Jimmy nodded and stopped asking. On-site investigation is the job of police detectives, and if the rich or famous are involved, it needs to be kept secret.Let's wait for Dave to confirm. This is not New York. There are not many things that Jimmy can participate in. Even if he wants to intervene in the case, he needs authorization.
