North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 820: Tacit Understanding among Colleagues

Jimmy, Hank and Gomez stood in front of the DEA building, waiting for the teams to return. The most important investigation phase of this arrest operation had been completed. If the arrest failed, it would have nothing to do with Jimmy. By the way, they could also see the DEA lose face, which was an unexpected gain.

In fact, just by looking at the returning convoy, you can tell that there is basically no problem, otherwise Hank's phone would have been ringing by now.

The SWAT team at the chicken farm were the first to take action. Of course, due to the distance they traveled, they were also the last to return. However, there were three trucks with the Fried Chicken Brothers painted on them. These three trucks were the tools for transporting the goods this time. However, not all the goods in the trucks were inspected and needed to be brought back for processing.

The chicken farm was also blocked off. The warehouse discovered by Jimmy was the top priority. The people from the forensic department followed the operation personnel, and they started the inspection after controlling the scene.

In fact, Jimmy was a little hasty in closing the net this time. There was still one most important thing that he hadn't figured out, and that was the place where the drug money was centrally managed. Unfortunately, Gus and the others got into trouble, which directly interrupted Jimmy's idea of ​​continuing the investigation.

The drug money obtained from drug trafficking gangs is not confiscated directly. Not only the FBI and DEA, but even the police who cooperated in the operation can share a share, even if they did not take it openly. This time, a large blue methamphetamine trafficking gang was destroyed but a large amount of cash was not obtained, which really lost a lot of points.

Of course, it wasn't a complete failure. We did get some cash from Gus's home and the restaurant he frequented, estimated at around one or two million. The FBI was basically not involved in the operation, so we didn't get any of that.

It is impossible for Jimmy to interrogate so many people by himself. He must mobilize a large number of DEA agents to interrogate everyone at the same time. However, before the interrogation, Jimmy and Hank need to give them a simple training.

In the large conference room, all the agents who were about to participate in the interrogation gathered together. Except for the front circle of people who were sitting, the rest could only stand against the wall, looking at the whiteboard that Jimmy had dragged in front of him and prepared in advance, as well as the surveillance footage that had been cut in advance by the surveillance team. Jimmy described in detail all the clues they had found so far, and linked together a drug trafficking route that included production, supply and sales. The key point was that the key nodes of these links were all within the scope of this arrest, so each agent needed to focus on the content of the link he was responsible for, so that he could be more targeted during the interrogation.

Jimmy had already taken the greatest credit for this investigation, so the entire interrogation process was handed over to the DEA. After Jimmy finished his story and answered some questions, he dismissed everyone and asked them to go back to work. He pushed Hank to the small meeting room they had used before and rested there.

It's not that he wants to be lazy, the key is that the DEA was too lame in this investigation. If they can't get any substantial credit, it will be unacceptable to everyone from top to bottom. Hank has discussed this with Jimmy after getting private instructions from his superiors. Jimmy is not the kind of person who insists on everything, so he will definitely give out some of the profits. Of course, part of the reason is Hank, who was still implicated by Walter.

Thanks to their application, Walter surrendered himself and would testify as a witness about some of the links and people he was involved in. Of course, there was also a witness protection program applied for by the DEA. As for his previous request to prepare one for Jesse Pinkman, it was no longer needed.

According to the DEA's plan, the Walter family will leave New Mexico after the case is handled and the verdict is announced. As for the destination, it is not clear yet, but they will definitely change their name. The important thing is to protect them. After all, they will kill a large drug trafficking gang at one time. Their superiors are still the Mexican drug trafficking groups. In order to protect them, they must be allowed to leave.

Back at the hotel, Jimmy checked his watch and called Alejandro when it was time. "I got the map, thank you."

Alejandro: "You're welcome. By the way, they are your target, or one of your targets, right? Do you need any help?"

Jimmy smiled slightly. With the coordinates retrieved from the satellite map, Alejandro probably already knew whose place he was investigating belonged to. "If it's possible, that would be great. But, is it convenient for you now? I'm not sure if it will have any impact on you."

Alejandro knew about this, of course. He also had a share of the Mexican border. Although he was not responsible for everything, it was still useful to be able to do something. It was good for both the public and the private. "There is always work to do. I always need to sleep and drink beer. I'm not a robot, right?"

Jimmy thought for a few seconds and said, "I need a way to get there and back, and I need some tools."

Alejandro: "OK, no need to talk, I'll take care of it. Time?"

Jimmy: “Just these two days.”

Alejandro: “OK, let’s meet and talk.”

Although they were using an anonymous cell phone, Jimmy and Alejandro still did not say any names or targets on the phone, nor did they say anything that would trigger an NSA alert, so as to avoid being marked by the system and discovered.

I have to say that Alejandro prepared very quickly. Before dawn, a text message containing the time, address and name was sent to Jimmy's mobile phone. This meant that he didn't need that much sleep to see the message in time. Otherwise, if he saw the message in the early morning, he would probably be busy for a while.

It was obvious that Alejandro knew what Jimmy might be going to do, so the address was not a well-known border city like El Paso, but a small village more than ten kilometers away from the border. It would take a lot of time to get there, and the time marked on the text message was only a few hours away.

Jimmy looked up the address on the computer, noted down several roads leading there, changed into casual clothes and went out.

In the afternoon, Jimmy arrived at the small village and saw a white church building standing not far from the entrance of the village. He parked the car next to the church, looked left and right, pushed the door and walked in.

"Good afternoon, Father. I'm looking for George."

Jimmy greeted the priest who was cleaning the church. The priest looked up at Jimmy, nodded, turned and walked out. Jimmy followed him and came to the back of the church. There was a hay truck parked there and an old man with a long beard was using a forklift to pile hay on the truck.

"George, he's here to see you."

The priest just said something and turned away. Old George looked at Jimmy, observed his body shape and nodded, "Get in the car, we'll leave in five minutes."

Jimmy sat in the passenger seat and waited for George. After the loading was completed, George sat in the driver's seat and said, "Leave behind any unnecessary things on you, weapons, documents, etc."

Jimmy: "It's all in my car, take care of them."

George nodded, started the car and left the small village. After driving for a while on the road, he immediately turned into the fields next to him and then drove directly south to the border area.

The number of tunnels under the US-Mexico border is far beyond the imagination of most people, and the depth can reach more than ten meters. Trying to detect them bit by bit from the ground is like looking for a needle in a haystack. So in addition to those tunnels that have been discovered unlucky, there are still a large number of undiscovered usable tunnels. Jimmy's transportation route this time is one of them.

George used the side of the car to push away a large rock that covered half of a cover. The other half was covered with grass and was easily moved away.

"I'll wait for you here for ten minutes tomorrow at 5pm." George said, and then he pulled out a pistol from the haystack in the car and handed it to Jimmy, "It's for your self-defense."

Jimmy nodded and went down the tunnel. He would have to move underground for the next few roads, but fortunately, although the height here was not particularly high, at least he could walk upright. Jimmy did not have to worry about people hiding in front of him that he could not find, so he moved very quickly and completed the crossing at a jog.

The exit of this tunnel is a bit inhumane. When Jimmy was approaching the exit, he smelled a foul odor. After opening the wooden board of the tunnel exit, he found that there was a septic tank three or four meters away, and the exit of this tunnel was next to a cattle farm.

Who the hell chose the location? Jimmy crawled out of the tunnel with a gloomy face. In the distance, a car flashed its headlights twice. Jimmy looked around and walked over.

"Hey, Gomez, why did you come here in person?"

Jimmy opened the car door and got into the passenger seat, then said to Alejandro, who was driving, "It would be fine if we just assigned someone to do this kind of thing, right?"

Alejandro started the car and left the cattle farm, getting on the road next to it. "If I'm just a driver, there are indeed many candidates, but I have too many questions that need answers. Don't worry, there are no surveillance recordings or anything like that. How did you target them? If we don't have precise coordinates and can conduct targeted investigations, it's really hard to determine the location of these big guys."

Jimmy nodded. "Someone arranged for it to be delivered to me before I left. This is the first time I know his location." After a pause, Jimmy observed the road and the environment on both sides. "Where is the thing I need?"

Alejandro: "It's in the trunk, brand new, it's been taken care of. Just to ask, is this a personal vendetta?"

Jimmy: "I guess so. Just clearing out some hidden dangers."

Alejandro turned his head to look at Jimmy, then looked at the road ahead. "Well, I thought you were here to negotiate for the rescue of people. There are two people from the United States who are being held captive in that manor. I thought your goal was to take them back. If you want to clear the hidden dangers, can you do it alone?"

Jimmy looked at Alejandro in surprise: "Two people are alive? What are their characteristics?"

Alejandro: "An old man and a black man. This information cost me a lot of money."

Jimmy nodded. "It seems they are lucky. Well, I am not here to save them. Their fate depends on God's arrangement. As for the intelligence fee, I will leave the aftermath to you?"

Alejandro was silent for a while. "That will require a lot of manpower, and we may have to allocate some of them."

Jimmy: "There's definitely enough for you to take one."

Alejandro: "Who can resist taking more? Deal."

After chatting all the way, Alejandro parked the car behind a dirt slope two hours later. He took out the GPS, looked at the coordinates, and pointed to the location of the manor. The two of them rested in this secluded place and began to organize the equipment in the trunk.

Bulletproof vest, helmet, monocular night vision goggles, MP7 with silencer, Glock 19 with silencer, several spare magazines, and two stun grenades, which are good things for indoor assaults. A combat dagger with a sheath is placed aside, and there is a monocular telescope. The preparations are very complete.

Jimmy checked them all and saw that they were indeed new. The smell of gun oil was still strong. Alejandro reached out and picked up the MP7, pulled the bolt and took a look, then put it back in the trunk. "We are short of time and don't have time to deal with it. I don't think you need to deal with it too cleanly. The serial numbers have all been destroyed, so there will be no trace left."

Jimmy nodded. Even though he didn't say it explicitly, Alejandro still prepared a full set of equipment for scouting. These things were not cheap, and it was obviously quite stressful to take out these equipment in advance without Jimmy's confirmation. But it was not a big problem. Jimmy believed that Alejandro's gains would definitely be enough to cover the cost.

After confirming everything was correct, Jimmy began to put on his bulletproof vest. Alejandro reached out and grabbed him: "It's still half an hour before dark. You're not planning to leave now? We still have to wait a long time."

Jimmy: "Be prepared and adapt in advance. Is this area safe? Can I try out the gun?"

Alejandro shrugged, "Sure, as long as you don't take off the silencer."

Jimmy walked to the side and looked around. He aimed at a nearby rock and tried his pistol and MP7. After confirming that the trajectory was correct, he unloaded the magazine and refilled the bullets. "Do you want to wait here or wait for my call?"

Alejandro: "Leave the car here. I'll wait for your call nearby. If you need to leave urgently, come here and drive yourself. Do you remember the route?"

He casually placed the car keys on the left rear wheel, then left the car and walked somewhere else.

Soon, it was completely dark. Jimmy looked at his watch and then got up and rushed to the target location.

Jimmy had already confirmed the satellite map. Although he was not completely familiar with the internal structure of the manor, at least he had memorized several buildings and swimming pools. Holding a GPS terminal with direction information and location displayed on it, Jimmy trotted towards Eladio's manor with his equipment on his back.

Jimmy pulled down his night vision goggles when he was about one kilometer away from the manor. The combination of mind's eye vision and night vision goggles was very convenient for operations in the wilderness, especially the two secret sentries he found very close to each other on the way to the manor. They formed cross-fire with each other and were located on both sides of the road. If he did not know the movement trajectories of the people in the two secret sentries accurately, his whereabouts would probably have been exposed in advance.

"Bang" "Bang" He aimed at the two people in advance and fired two consecutive shots, successfully killing them without giving them time to notify others.
