North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 674

By the time Jimmy and the others returned to the command center, news from the front had arrived. Two DHS special teams had arrived at the target location, but no one was found at the scene. They had not returned yet, and they still needed to look around to see if anyone was there. New harvest, but it looks promising.

Agent Raymond's face was ugly. DHS was so embarrassed this time. Not to mention the heavy casualties, the biggest credit for the case was taken away by the FBI who assisted them. There was a chance to save face, but now it doesn't look like there is much hope. .

Before everything settles, Raymond must do something to make his side not so ugly, but he still needs to think about how to do it specifically, and he also needs to consult other people's opinions by the way. This time he will not It’s just my own trouble, and it’s also a trouble between institutions.

Jimmy and Mahone could rest here, but they still couldn't leave. The two of them were too lazy to stay in the wild, so they went directly back to the hotel. After a while, they went out to have coffee and dinner, treating it as a vacation.

After all, Mahone was more experienced than Jimmy. The two chatted a lot, and they probably guessed what Raymond was thinking, but they also said it in a joking way. After all, the trouble would be caused by others, so they wouldn't worry about it.

After all, Ma Hong was married, had children and divorced. He still gave Jimmy, a newly married man, a lot of advice on life after marriage. Anyway, idle time is idle. It is the habit of many people to be a teacher, and Jimmy can only passively accept it. These so-called experiences.

However, Mahone's experience is still different from Jimmy's life. After all, Nia is also a strong woman type, which is different from Mahone's ex-wife. However, regarding children, this is a topic that cannot be avoided.

It's not that Jimmy doesn't want children. He needs to talk to Nia about this. Anyway, as a Chinese at heart, children are still very important. He doesn't pursue DINK like many people in the United States, but for Nia As for whether he would choose to have a child at such a young age, he was actually not sure about this.

In fact, Nia really likes her career. She is not a police officer who deliberately opposed Kevin like before. If she really chooses to prepare for pregnancy, or becomes pregnant, Nia will probably transfer from the police detective department to logistics or management. Post.

This is not a routine practice, but as the daughter of Deputy Director Kevin, who dares to let Nia go out to investigate the case when she is pregnant?New York is not that safe. If something happens, there will be a lot of people involved. Just think about it and you will know that as soon as the news of her pregnancy comes out, she will definitely be transferred from her position or promoted.

Whether Nia is willing to accept this or not requires a good conversation and clear communication. Jimmy is not the type of macho man who is the head of the family, so he is still willing to respect Nia's choice.

However, Jimmy still has some grudges about his child being targeted. He doesn't care, but if the child is targeted by the church since he was a child, he doesn't know what will happen to him in the future.

Finally, after waiting for a day, Agent Raymond announced the end of the investigation, and Jimmy, Mahone and other people transferred from other departments to assist were able to escape and leave.

Jimmy and the others were finally able to return to New York. It was much easier this time. There was no need to drive fast. The two of them drove back to their homes normally. After all, they needed to rest after driving for several hours. It would be too inhumane to go directly to work. .

Jimmy didn't have much time when he returned home. He always wanted to show off when he went out for several days at a time, so he went out to purchase some ingredients to show off his skills and give Nia a surprise.

Over the past few years, Jimmy's cooking skills have become better and better, especially his body control ability has become stronger and stronger, and he can control the force more accurately, and there is basically no chance of accidentally pouring in a bunch of seasonings. The conditions in the pot, and the cutting of vegetables and meat are basically very precise in size, which is pleasing to the eye and the taste is more balanced.

Nia didn't go out for dinner today. When Jimmy called her last night, he said he would be back in the next day or two. If Jimmy comes back today, she will just go out with Jimmy.

The moment he took out the key, opened the door, and turned on the light, Jimmy stood in the living room and said, "Surprise!"

Nia turned around with a smile, ran two steps towards Jimmy, "You're back, why didn't you call me in advance? How is your case? Are you injured?"

Jimmy held Nia in a circle to relieve his strength, "Of course not, this is a surprise for you. Okay, go wash up first, I made dinner."

Nia kissed Jimmy, put her bag on the sofa, and got up to wash up. Jimmy took out a match and lit the candle. Even though it was at his own home, it would be nice to have a candlelight dinner.

When Nia came out, she found that the lights in the living room and dining room had been turned off. In addition to the dinner, there were two lit candlesticks on the dining table. She looked at Jimmy in surprise. She sat on the side of the table and looked at Jimmy with a smile, "Tell me, Today is so good, do you have anything you want to say to me?"

Jimmy raised his eyebrows and said, "No, I just went out for a few days and came back to give you a surprise. Try the steak I made. You performed at a superb level today and it tastes good."

Nia smiled a little and picked up the knife and fork, "Okay, let's talk about it tonight."

Jimmy also picked up the knife and fork. The steak in front of him was a large portion. Since his body strengthened, his appetite has been increasing day by day. Even though it is night, he still has to eat a little more.

Nia ate a small piece of steak and suddenly raised her head and said, "By the way, dad asked me to tell you about Elliot recognizing you as his godfather. If you don't have any objection, just prepare in advance."

Jimmy: "Well, no problem. It's not bad to have a godson. Just think of it as preparation for educating your child in advance."

Acknowledging a godson is not that simple. If it is an ordinary person, it is usually a simple small ceremony for both parties, and the two families can confirm it together. But since Kevin said this, he must have some thoughts about this matter. If you do it more formally, then you probably have to go to church.

This is Jimmy's first time doing this. He doesn't know the relevant process yet, but this is not a problem. Apart from anything else, he also knows some people in the church. Just ask Father Rodney and he will definitely know. .

After dinner, Jimmy saw that it was still relatively early, so he suggested going out for a walk, watching a movie or something.Jimmy and the others are still safe in the Upper West Side. They don't dare to go out at night. Of course, they still have to be more careful. Manhattan is not a safe place, but both Jimmy and Nia have the ability to protect themselves. Not too worried.

Of course, they finished watching the movie safely and returned home without any accidents, because they didn’t particularly want to watch it. They just found a movie that was about to open and went in to watch it. Neither of them were movie lovers, they were just spending time. It’s just time.

At night, when the two of them were lying on the bed after having been busy for a while, Jimmy held Nia's hair in his hands and played with the ends. Then he expressed his thoughts and asked for Nia's advice. Opinion, should I prepare for pregnancy in advance?

Nia looked up at Jimmy in surprise. Jimmy nodded to indicate that he was serious, and then she began to seriously consider the matter.Just as Jimmy thought, although Nia was married, she had never thought about having a child so early before. In the end, she still did not make a decision that night, and Jimmy was not in a hurry. This matter cannot be done in a day or two. Plenty of time to think about it.

The next day was the weekend, and Jimmy was not in a hurry to go back to the office. He just called Mark and asked if there was anything urgent, and then went to the church to find Father Rodney.

Of course, when you go to church, you must first pray. Even if it is just a show, you must maintain this image. You must know that Jimmy has never participated in various activities of the church. As a believer, he must not Qualified, but with legitimate reasons, and no one is looking for trouble, so that's it.

Father Rodney was not there, which surprised Jimmy. The other priests were not familiar with Jimmy. Maybe they had heard of Jimmy's name, but they declined his request to inquire about Father Rodney's whereabouts when he did not identify himself.

This is not a big problem, but he originally planned to ask about the process of recognizing a godson and did not ask anyone else. He decided to wait until Father Rodney came back.

After leaving the church, Jimmy called Father Rodney and was surprised to learn that he had gone to the seminary and would be back tomorrow. That would be no problem. Jimmy had relatively free time on weekends, so he could just come back tomorrow.

I went shopping with Nia, went to the spa, and went back to Nia's house to have dinner. The day passed quickly. It was so worry-free to be close to her. If I didn't want to cook or eat out, I went to my mother-in-law's place to have dinner. They It's not unwelcome, after all, she is the only daughter, and Jimmy doesn't have any psychological pressure at all.

As for Kevin, his opinion is not important. In terms of family status, Kevin is not much better than Jimmy. So after dinner, Nia chatted with her mother, and Jimmy and Kevin came to the study to smoke cigars, drink and chat. .

Kevin has participated in a lot of activities recently, and with some previous preparations, it is now basically confirmed that he will take over as the chief of the police department in the future. The original chief is a direct descendant of the previous mayor, but everyone is of the same party. Many things are not that extreme, but with a new mayor, there will always be adjustments. It depends on the subsequent arrangements.

After becoming the chief, Kevin can be regarded as stepping into the category of senior political personnel. Because the chief of the NYPD is appointed, not elected, so what Kevin needs to do at that time is to manage his own image. Maybe Maybe he will succeed in becoming mayor one day.

Kevin is still very grateful to Jimmy. It is undeniable that the support given to him by several powerful people recently stems from his relationship with the church. In fact, the wedding caused a much greater shock to some people than Jimmy imagined. , especially those who are well aware of some secret affairs in the church.

Jimmy's identity is no longer as simple as a simple FBI agent. He has been imprinted with the church. In some people's hearts, the impression of him as a devout believer has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and he is a believer who the church attaches great importance to. This is much stronger than ordinary believers.

Kevin also knows this very well, which is why he is so concerned about Jimmy taking in his godson, because such a joint relationship will also benefit Elliot, and even Alex Green will benefit from it. These things Jimmy may not care, but Kevin has to think about it too.

Jimmy also told Kevin about his plans, but the process was not yet certain for the time being. He would need to wait until Father Rodney came back. As for the candidates to watch the ceremony, Kevin and the others would naturally be included.

The next day, Jimmy came to the church again. Father Rodney had returned, and he was not alone. There were two young priests beside him, but they looked different from ordinary priests. There was no expression on their faces. The other kind of smile is much more serious.

Father Rodney: "Jimmy, what's the matter?"

Jimmy: "Well, I have a little matter that I would like to ask Father Rodney to help me with. But who are these two?"

Father Rodney: "They are new people I brought back from the seminary, and will be assigned to other churches to take charge of local affairs."

Jimmy nodded hello to the two of them, and then told his story: "I handled a kidnapping case before, and the kidnapped child wanted to recognize me as his godfather. I want to ask you for advice. If I want to recognize him as my godson, What needs to be done? I’m not very familiar with this.”

Father Rodney looked at Jimmy in surprise: "Godson? Who is he?"

Jimmy: "He's just a kid who is quite close to each other. He had some mental problems due to the kidnapping case. Later, I cooperated to treat him. He is a very good little guy."

Father Rodney nodded: "The process is not complicated. If you are sure, you can tell me the time and I will arrange it."

Jimmy: "Is it right here?"

Father Rodney nodded and confirmed that it was just a small thing and not worthy of a trip to Staten Island.

Jimmy: "Okay, then I'll discuss the time with the others and let you know if I'm sure. Thank you, Father Rodney."

Father Rodney: "You're welcome, Jimmy."

Jimmy said goodbye and left. A priest behind Father Rodney asked: "Father Rodney, was he the one who asked you to come back? Who is he?"

Father Rodney shook his head: "He is just our collaborator, but he has nothing to do with you for the time being, so don't worry about it. Okay, let's continue your course, you will soon be on your own."

Jimmy left the church and drove home. It can be seen that the church is not having a good time now because there are too many supernatural incidents. Now they have begun to recruit new people. Father Rodney's words just now basically showed that they no longer have enough. Senior exorcist priests have come to arrange things everywhere, so we can only find these new people from the seminary to deal with these things.

Judging from the several supernatural incidents Jimmy participated in in the previous incident, in addition to the manpower shortage due to too many incidents, there is probably another point, which is the death and injury of the exorcist priests. There may be a group of senior priests who have withdrawn from the front line and have even been called by the Lord. Maybe.
