North American Gunslinger Detective

Idle is also idle, and Jimmy is not a taciturn person. In the environment of a bar, no matter whether the people next to him know each other or not, they have a drink and chat casually, and the time passes like this.

Soon, Kevin had already arrived, and Dave hadn't arrived yet, so he also sat at the bar, but because he had something to do later, he didn't drink, but took a glass of soda to pass the time.

The man next to Jimmy who claimed to be Todd didn't leave either. He was about the same age as Kevin, and after chatting for a while, they found that they both had an only child, so they had something in common.

After having a common topic, Kevin also changed the wine, but it was just a low-alcohol drink prepared by Woody.

Compared with Nia, Todd's daughter is not so worry-free. Todd can't help but sigh when he mentions this topic. As an educator, his daughter has embarked on a rebellious path since she went to college. Now It's completely gone astray.He originally contacted the university where she was qualified to stay in school, but unfortunately, in the end, all his efforts were in vain.

This kind of topic is most likely to resonate with middle-aged men. The more they chat, the more speculative they become. Jimmy has completely become a passerby, and it just makes him pay attention to whether Dave is coming at the door.

Soon, Dave also arrived, followed by a young man, but when he came to Kevin, he didn't introduce him at all. When they went to the small room, the young man turned and left the bar.

Jimmy just went into the small room and said a few words to them before being kicked out. The content of their conversation was not suitable for Jimmy to be there.

Fortunately, Jimmy has told Kevin about the two bottles of wine in it before, and it depends on their own wishes.

Back at the bar, the middle-aged man Todd just drank the wine in his glass and took out his wallet to pay. Jimmy came over and sat next to him, "Hey, Todd, today's drink is mine."

Todd seemed to have drunk a little too much, and his eyes were a little blurred. He looked at Jimmy and said with a smile: "Thank you, but no need, I am very happy to have such a good chat today. Woody, Your tip."

After taking a picture of a 50 dollar note on the bar, Todd put away his wallet and stood up, reached out and hugged Jimmy, "Interesting boy, see you by fate."

Jimmy patted him on the back, "Have fun, see you later."

Looking at Todd who walked out with a slight wobble, Jimmy shook his head and smiled. It can be seen when Kevin and Todd were drinking and chatting just now. It's really not easy to be able to chat. People in Kevin's position usually don't have anyone who can chat freely. It's rare.

Jimmy: "Woody, give me some pistachios."

Woody didn't do anything, another bartender boy standing next to him reached out and took out a bag from the bar counter and poured it into a small plate and handed it to Jimmy.

There is one thing to say, Jimmy is also considered a handsome Chinese guy. In a city like New York, there are still many people who will be interested.Just waiting here for Kevin and Dave to chat so well, two waves of girls have come to strike up a conversation, but Jimmy is not interested, he hasn't flirted with a girl in a bar for a long time.

But his refusal didn't stop him. Instead, he attracted a man who didn't look very interesting to strike up a conversation, which was a bit too insulting. If he wasn't also a customer, Jimmy would have poured wine on his face.

Fortunately, Kevin and Dave didn't chat for a long time, and they came out in less than half an hour.Dave greeted Jimmy and left the bar straight away. Jimmy sent him away and returned to the bar. Kevin was drinking with a glass.

Kevin: "Jimmy, take the wine inside to Dave's office later, don't make a big fuss."

Jimmy: "I understand. How was your talk?"

Kevin: "Fortunately, the first time we talked, we couldn't talk about anything, but we finally made some progress. We'll talk about it later."

Jimmy nodded: "Well, thank you, Kevin."

Kevin: "I told you before, don't get involved in other things, and stay honestly recently. Okay, I'll go back first."

Jimmy: "I'll have someone drive you home. You've been drinking. Woody, ask someone to deliver Kevin. I've had a lot too."

Kevin nodded, Woody turned and left the bar, after a while, a security guard came over, Kevin gave him the key, and they left the bar together.

Today's matter is over, and Jimmy is finally relieved.

Woody took Jimmy's glass back, filled it with ice and whiskey, and put it in front of him again, "Are you all right?"

Jimmy smiled and nodded: "It's okay. By the way, I forgot to ask. Didn't you say you were going to that old jazz club? How is it?"

Woody: "Very good. I passed the first day of official operation. The singer is very good and the environment is also very good."

Jimmy: "Like?"

Woody: "Sure, I can sit through the night with a cigar, listening to jazz, and a glass of bourbon in front of me."

Jimmy: "Okay, you can go and have a look when you have time."

Jimmy took a sip of his wine and suddenly turned his head to look at the ceiling. The music in the bar is similar to light music, which will not affect the people here drinking and chatting, and the rhythm will not be fast. "By the way, if you really like jazz, maybe you can consider changing the background music here. I don't have any special hobbies. You and Isaac can discuss it."

Woody shrugged: "The two sides have different styles, so be it, they're used to this environment."

Jimmy: "Okay, you can figure it out."

After Jimmy finished drinking, he asked Woody to take a bag to pack the two boxes of wine in the small room, and carried them back to the apartment.

On the second week of work, Jimmy came to the office with a bag and delivered it to Dave's office in the afternoon, so that the leader could have a drink to relax.

Dave didn't refuse, but he didn't let Jimmy leave, "Jimmy, do you want to go to college?"

Jimmy smiled and said, "Yes, I'm in the public affairs office now, and I have a lot of time, so I want to find a university to recharge my batteries while I'm free."

Dave: "Any plans?"

Jimmy: "I'm looking at the bureau's policy recently. I don't know if this is allowed on our side."

Dave: "Tell me about your plan."

Jimmy: "It's not confirmed yet. You know, I graduated from a community college. It was only because of special circumstances that I had the opportunity to enter the FBI, so I have always wanted to do something. My idea is to find someone who can work Study the school and major, take the time to complete the course as much as possible.”

Dave: "Well, it's a good thing to be self-motivated. All right, you can go back first."

Jimmy: "Okay, bye."

Jimmy is completely empty now, things are not going well, and he has nothing to deal with at work. It is nothing more than sorting out various public materials and various documents in the office, which is really boring.

After thinking about it, Jimmy came to Isabel's office and wanted to ask what procedures he would need to go through if he wanted to launch an external activity of the office.

Of the two problems Kevin gave, the second one is relatively simple. It’s just an excuse to let yourself appear in front of some people. It’s really not good. It should be relatively simple to organize a specific type of safety training for college students.

It’s just that Isabel poured cold water on Jimmy. The foreign cooperation projects of the FBI office are all reported in advance and have a budget. It’s not impossible to do temporary activities, but you need a reason and you need to go through the process and apply for funds. If it’s an activity prepared in the office , Many are easy to say, if Jimmy plans to hold an event by himself, the required process will be a bit troublesome.

Although this basin of cold water disappointed him, Isabel's words also showed that this matter is not impossible. As long as Jimmy can give a reason in the past and convince Mrs. Mason, it can be done. Of course, the reason must be It can be shot, and the activities can't be too outrageous.

Back at the office, I thought about the things in my hand. Things were prioritized. After being strongly asked to stop anything related to field work, it seemed that the most important thing for me was to promote my education career and my wedding in the next year.

Just thinking about it, suddenly Jimmy's cell phone rang, picked it up and took a look, a very unexpected name, Steven Gomez, Albuquerque DEA agent, when Jimmy hunted down gangsters, he was the one who helped in Albuquerque Keji was looking for someone.

Jimmy: "Hi, Steven, long time no see."

Steven: "Hi, Jimmy, long time no see, how are you doing?"

Jimmy: "Everything is fine, how about you?"

Steven: "Still the same. Jimmy, I remember you from the FBI's New York office, right?"

Jimmy: "Yeah, I'm in the Manhattan office, what's up?"

Steven sighed on the phone: "Do you remember my partner? Hank Schrader."

Jimmy: "I remember, fat, right?"

Steven: "Yes, he and his wife went to New York on vacation, and something happened there, can you help to find out?"

Jimmy: "Oh? What's the matter?"

Steven: "I don't know the details, and he didn't tell me on the phone."

Jimmy thought for a while, and said after a few seconds: "I can contact him, but I'm not sure if I can help him settle everything."

Steven: "It shouldn't be a big deal. He can still receive my calls, but he is not in the right state when he speaks. I don't have any acquaintances in New York, so I can only ask you to help me."

Jimmy: "OK, give me his phone number, I'll contact him to see what's going on."

Steven: "Thank you, Jimmy, thank you. You've been a great help."

Steven Gomez, when Jimmy went to Albuquerque, the only contact Tom gave to Jimmy, although he never asked what is the relationship between Tom and this Steven, but only since Tom "died" Still relying on a phone call to help Jimmy, this person can communicate, and Jimmy believes in Tom's vision.

Although Hank Schrader has only met a few times, Jimmy has a good impression of this chubby DEA senior agent who loves to laugh. It is definitely not just an ordinary colleague who can make Steven so interested. They should have been together for a long time and have a very good relationship with each other.

Jimmy looked at the mobile phone number on the text message and dialed it directly. The ring rang for more than ten seconds before the other person answered, "Who are you?"

Jimmy: "Hank Schrader? I'm FBI Agent Jimmy Young, we met in Albuquerque."

Hank paused for a few seconds, probably forgetting who Jimmy was.

Jimmy continued: "Steven Gomez's friend, remember?"

Hank: "Oh, I remembered, it's you, Chinese boy."

Jimmy: "Hehe, yes, it's me. I heard you're in New York, do you want to meet? Long time no see."

Hank: "Sorry, Yang, I have something to deal with here now, I will contact you when I am free."

Jimmy: "I'm in Manhattan, New York, which is convenient. Steven give me your number."

Hank sighed, "Hey, I'm not very convenient now, I'm at the NYPD police station."

Jimmy: "Which police station?"

Hank: "Seventh Precinct."

Jimmy: "OK, let's meet and talk."

Hank is at the police station, and he can answer calls with his mobile phone, which means that he must not be the one who committed the crime, otherwise it would be impossible to have such convenience. Jimmy thought about it, called Nia, and asked Seventh Where is the branch.

Nia: "Elizabeth Street, why are you asking that?"

Jimmy: "A friend said that there seems to be some trouble in the seventh inning. I'll go and have a look."

Nia: "Very important friend?"

Jimmy: "My friend, I don't know what it is, let me go and see first."

Nia: "Well, call me if you have anything to do. I'm at the police station today and I didn't go out."

Jimmy got up and glanced at Mrs. Mason's office, thought for a while, walked into Isabel's office, spoke to her, and left the office.

The NYPD police station that Jimmy often goes to is the headquarters and the first branch. The other branches rarely go to work, so he is a little confused when he only talks about the seventh branch.

Coming to the seventh branch, Jimmy showed his ID, then called Hank's cell phone in the hall, and soon saw Hank in the waiting room.

Hank was dressed in casual clothes, and he seemed to be in a bad mood. He was always smiling when I met him a few times before, but now there is no smile on his face.With a forced smile, Hank shook hands with Jimmy and said hello, "Jimmy, Steven contacted you?"

Jimmy sat next to Hank and asked, "Well, he called me and was worried about you, and I happened to be in New York. What happened? Hank."

Hank looked a little troubled, but his expression struggled for a while, and he lowered his head a little decadently, "My wife, Mary, stole a necklace from a store."

Jimmy blinked, with a puzzled expression: "What? How could this be?"

Hanke is a senior agent of the DEA, and he lives in a high-end villa on the mountainside in Albuquerque. Their family must not be short of money. How could this happen?This unscientific.

Hank: "She's been in therapy, but this time we were on vacation and she started again."

Jimmy thought for a while, and said with a little hesitation: "Wait, could it be... kleptomania?" (End of this chapter)
