Chapter 486 Holidays and Accidents
The harvest in Braxton's words is average, but it depends on who you compare it with. This little money is indeed not as much as a fraction of the collection in Chris's trailer, and in Jack's case The three insistent people split the money equally, and each person received just over US$3 million.
After Chris launders the money through his channels, and then removes the tribute (tax payment) to the IRS that can never be avoided, the money that will eventually reach Jack's hands may be less than 300 million dollars.
At this point, Chris still has to help Jack find a reasonable and legal reason for his income, otherwise he will directly put it into his account. Maybe one day he will be investigated by the OPR (Office of Professional Responsibility, Office of Professional Responsibility) within the FBI. The officer came to the door.
As for the jewelry, Jack’s suggestion is to simply find a reliable channel to dismantle all the gems on them and make new ones. Anyway, he has many girls, so he doesn’t have to worry about giving them away. Brother Wolf Nowadays, no one is single anymore, and they can all be used.
Braxton said that he had quite a few contacts in Austria and he would handle these matters.
After this operation, Matt temporarily disbanded the operation team and gave everyone a half-month vacation. Now Jack cannot go back to the BAU and can only enjoy the vacation in peace.
Their next target is tentatively decided to be the Matamoros Gang and the Reyes Group, but the specific plan has not yet been confirmed. The CIA will need some time to collect and organize specific intelligence, and then formulate a specific action plan.
Chris also gave Jack a surprise. He quietly bought the small farm next door for sale and put it in Hannah's name.
After a year and a half, or simply waiting for the two of them to get married, this farm can be transferred to Jack in a legitimate and legitimate manner. As the saying goes, misfortune lies on the back of good fortune, and good fortune lies on misfortune. Even if someone’s home is bombed However, he lost money inside the wall and made up for it outside the wall. Inexplicably, he became a landlord in the United States.
Although this landowner is really small, with an area of only 10 acres, or about 0.04 square kilometers, Jack is quite satisfied and does not expect to make money from this.
Thousands of years of civilization have long engraved the attachment to the land in the hearts of every Serisian. Thinking of the day when they are old, they can lie leisurely in a deck chair under the eaves. Seeing his grandchildren playing and having fun on the farm, Jack felt inexplicably more at ease.
Of course, the premise is that he can deal with his beauties first. Thinking of Hannah and Jiejie's meaningful glances at each other every time they meet, Jie feels a little headache.
Fortunately, Jane Banner is a career-minded girl. Although she cannot be said to be just greedy for his body, she has no idea of competing for jobs. In other words, when she first met Jiejie, she was I gave up my thoughts on this aspect.
It seems that this is the normal view of love among big girls in America. Hannah and Jiejie both belong to the "non-mainstream" kind, so this must be the case.
In the next few days, Jack worked hard to implement the British Empire's continental balance of power policy. Today, he made some delicious food for Hannah and practiced fighting with her. Tomorrow, he and Jiejie went out to do some shopping. In the evening, they sat on the sofa and watched TV together. .
It was fun to find time to talk to Zoe about politics and discuss academic issues with teacher Maureen.
A week passed leisurely like this. Jack lay in a daze on his clean bed early in the morning. When he was thinking about how to design his future home on the farm, the phone suddenly rang. It was Hannah.
"Stella just called me and said that his father was injured."
Jack's mind wandered for a long time before he remembered that Stella was the Texas Ranger Cordell ·Walker's daughter, "How was Walker injured? What happened?"
When he was planning his trip to Mexico, he was worried that if something unexpected happened, he would be stuck in an unfamiliar Mexico and would need to return to the United States through abnormal means, so he contacted Walker in advance through Hannah.
Walker, who was familiar with the border situation, planned several routes for him, and even took the initiative to apply to be transferred to the Mounted Police Reconnaissance Team for a period of time in order to facilitate the response. He was quite enthusiastic.
When his family was in danger at the border (Chapter 155), Jack and Hannah helped a lot. This Texas man always remembered this kindness.
This is also the reason why Jack met Walker in El Paso before. It was not a coincidence.
"The specifics are unclear. I only know that there was an explosion while tracking smugglers at the border. Two CBP (Federal Border Patrol Police) officers were killed on the spot. Walker had just been sent to a hospital in Dallas. ." Hannah's voice was a little anxious.
Jack knew the reason why Hannah called him. She was busy with a big case recently. He came to see her two days ago and finally found time to spend a day with him. Obviously, he couldn't rush to Texas immediately this time.
"Don't worry, I'll fly to Dallas now. I'll take care of everything."
Jack got up and packed his things. He understood Hannah's mood at the moment very well, except for the Anderson family here in Los Angeles. , the Walker family in Texas are also like family members.
What's more, the reason why Walker's accident happened is causally related to him. Jack also feels that it has something to do with him. If it weren't for his incident, Walker would not take the initiative to apply for transfer to the Mounted Police Reconnaissance Team. . Saying goodbye to Jiejie in a hurry, Jack bought the nearest plane ticket and met the Walker family at Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas that afternoon.
This hospital is a famous biomedical research center in the United States and one of the best hospitals in Texas.
Fortunately, Walker was further away from the center of the explosion than the two CBP police officers who unfortunately died in the line of duty, so the shock wave did not directly harm him.
But unfortunately, a flying stone happened to hit his head. In addition to a large gash, it also caused a certain degree of concussion.
Jack met Walker’s former partner and current superior at the hospital, Captain Larry James of the Austin Mounted Police Office. After Jack showed his FBI badge, the bald man briefly introduced him to Tell the whole story.
Early yesterday morning, Walker cooperated with a team of CBP police officers to track a group of stowaways near Laredo. This was not a particularly dangerous operation.
Helicopters with infrared radars were tracking in the sky, and federal police on the ground cooperated with state police to encircle and outflank them. Under normal circumstances, these illegal immigrants would not resist too fiercely.
Because even if they are sent to a detention center, under what the current blond president calls the most severe "restrictive YM policy", only a very small number of people will be sent back, and most of them will just cross the border. The line is victory.
At most, if we wait a few more years, after surviving the term of the current blond president, some policies will definitely change.
However, something went wrong during this operation. A bearded man among the stowaways escaped and when he was forced to the edge of a cliff, he knelt down for a while. After praying, the explosives he carried were detonated.
The man's body was not found on the spot, and Walker and a group of police officers who were about to arrest him were also knocked to the ground by the shock wave of the explosion. Two of the CBP police officers died on the spot.
"The specific identity of this person is still under investigation. The local FBI office has taken over the case." Captain Larry James looked a little unhappy. In his opinion, this case involved his own police officers, so naturally it should be handled by the Texas police. Mounties are in charge.
However, his arm could not twist his thigh, and two more federal police officers died in the line of duty. No matter how reluctant he was, he had no choice but to obey his superiors' orders and hand over the case.
Knowing that Walker was fine, Jack finally felt relieved. He was still lying in the ICU and he couldn't visit him, so he could only say goodbye temporarily.
Anyway, as long as he is here, his life is not in danger, and his arms and legs are intact, everything will be fine. When Walker comes out of the ICU, there will be plenty of opportunities to meet him.
He planned to go to the FBI office in Dallas tomorrow to inquire about the situation, maybe it could have something to do with his current actions.
This time he came out in a hurry. Except for a Glock pistol, Jack didn't even bring toiletries. After saying goodbye to the Walker family, he drove the Camry rented from the airport and planned to find a large supermarket to buy an electric toothbrush. He is used to using this thing, but he is really not used to an ordinary toothbrush.
Drove to Kroger supermarket, which is the largest department store in the area that he found on the map. This chain brand is also the second (?) supermarket chain in the United States, and there is one nearby. Plan to stay at the Four Seasons Hotel tonight.
After buying an electric toothbrush, Jack bought two pounds of American pecans as snacks. If these are shipped to Seris, they will be renamed pecans, which are the only types of nuts he likes. Secondary to the presence of Queensland chestnut.
The alias of Queensland chestnut in Seris is macadamia nut. This thing is also called Australian walnut. Its origin is actually Australia.
After paying the bill, Jack left the supermarket and walked to the parking lot. He took out his mobile phone and checked the time. He estimated that Hannah should be home by now. He was about to call her when he looked up and saw four people. The bearded man passed him by and walked into the supermarket behind him.
Feeling that something was not right, Jack glanced back subconsciously. These four people looked menacing, as if they were determined to rob them. How could they look like they were determined to rob?
The Kroger supermarket behind you is not a small street store. Who the hell would come to rob such a large supermarket chain, even if it is a little black guy who plans to buy some extra money for zero dollars? , there’s no need to act like you’re sacrificing your life for righteousness, right?
Fuck, sacrifice your life for justice!
The sense of crisis suddenly came, and in the flash of lightning, Jack turned around in shock. There was a loud bang, the glass doors of the supermarket were shattered, and screams were heard everywhere.
Jack subconsciously squatted on the spot and pulled up his coat to block the broken glass. Just as he was about to get up, there was another loud bang, followed by a third one.
The screams were directly silenced by the successive explosions. The smoke alarm detected the smoke and the fire alarm sounded automatically. The surviving customers ignored the screams and looked for corners where they thought they were safe to hide. Some simply lay down on the ground. Don't dare to move.
