Chapter 549 Medal of Merit and Achievement
For New Yorkers, ferry is second only to the subway as a public transportation method. It is especially famous for its ferry line between Manhattan and Staten Island, with 2,000 passengers traveling every year. Thousands of tourists use this route to view the Statue of Liberty.
In addition to free excursion ferries, there are also commuter ferries whose fares are similar to those of the subway. The farthest route can go directly from Manhattan Island to Long Island.
Many office workers dislike the dirty and smelly subways and are willing to spend a little more time using these fast ferries to commute. Therefore, the ferry terminal in the south of Manhattan Island is directly named "water taxi".
The ferry ticket Hannah found in Hajima Bass's backpack was the one to New Jersey.
"Danny, immediately inform your people to suspend this ferry. I'll leave this to you first. We'll rush to the dock now."
Danny Regan made an OK gesture, "It's all done. Please give me a call. My father wants to invite you to our weekend lunch party.”
“I’ll talk about it later.” Jack took out the phone and called Hannah as he walked back. Dana Moger, this kind of thing still requires the leader to complete the process.
The Dodge Hellcat drove away with its siren on amidst the squeaking sound of tire grinding. Danny Regan looked up enviously and saw only the butt of the car.
It stands to reason that the salary of a first-level NYPD detective is higher than that of a senior FBI agent, but when this guy goes out to handle cases, he is surprised to find that he has a lot of beautiful cars, beautiful women, and a luxurious apartment. penthouse apartment.
Then I thought about how I was a prodigal in the New York social scene back then, but when I reached middle age, how could I...
When the two of them arrived at the ferry terminal, the place was already blocked by more than a dozen NYPD police officers. At the entrance, a fat black captain was waiting on the steps leading to the dock.
“According to your request, we quietly blocked the entrance and exit, and all ferries were stopped. The waiting passengers have not noticed anything unusual for the time being, but it will be difficult to tell if it takes longer.”
< br>"Have you found any trace of Bram?" Hannah asked.
The black captain shook his head, "Worried about alerting the other party, I only sent three young men to search separately. Don't you have any clearer photos?"
"No." Jack shook his head helplessly. The ferry terminal was not like the municipal parks where there were cameras before, and Jubal couldn't help for the time being.
He thought for a while, opened the trunk, took out two body armors with the words FBI on them, threw one to Hannah, put it on himself, and then put on the communicator.
This outfit, coupled with the two people's figures and looks, was quite conspicuous. Jack felt that it was not enough, so he waved to the black captain and called several heavily armed police officers to follow.
Such an appearance is enough to attract the attention of everyone on the dock.
The dock area is not small. There are one or two hundred passengers boarding the ship, but it does not seem crowded. A group of people walked down the steps and immediately attracted the attention of most people.
Jack put his hand on the Glock's holster, with all his senses turned on, and his eyes swept over the faces that looked either surprised or confused. This was his plan. Since the photos weren't clear enough, he might as well let the other party see them. He became nervous and took the initiative to expose himself.
According to the information, Khalid Burram is a multi-generational mixed-race Nigerian with black and white features. The black features on his body are not obvious. Jack quickly identified the passengers waiting for the ferry until his eyes fell on a Leaning against the pillar, a man wearing a peaked cap.
Seeing a group of people from the FBI and the NYPD, many passengers realized something was wrong and hid aside one after another, whispering. The man in the peaked hat seemed to have noticed something going on, and turned around just in time to talk to the tight guy. Jack's eyes met as he stared at him.
He turned his head as if nothing had happened, tightened the backpack he was holding across his body, and walked towards the rows of benches at the end of the pier, pretending to be calm.
"It's him!" Jack reminded Hannah in a deep voice, who immediately directed the NYPD behind them to spread out and evacuate the people around them.
"Khalid Burram!"
Jack yelled, pulled out his Glock and rushed forward. Khalid Burram quickly threw away his backpack when he heard the sound, and suddenly accelerated towards the crowd. go.
"Ah!" screams spread, and the crowd who sensed something was wrong began to flee in panic. Jack's eyes were fixed on each other, and the muzzle of the gun was always locked on his head. "Don't come here!" Brahm grabbed a black woman, strangled her tightly, took out a dagger, and turned around to try to threaten Jack, who was only three or four meters away from him.
“Bang!” “Bang!”
Two gunshots rang out almost at the same time. Brahm, who was about to say something, fell on his back. The kidnapped woman screamed in fright, bent over and rushed towards an NYDP police officer without looking back. Uh. , I have to say that the awareness is quite good.
As expected, they were all crazy believers with mental problems. Jack did not fire immediately, not because he was worried about missing the target, but because he did not want innocent people to appear in his line of fire.
Although Glock has average penetration, it is not impossible to penetrate two if unlucky, so he chose to shorten the distance between them as much as possible.
Hannah thought the same thing as him. Before the knife was placed on the hostage's neck, she directly chose to shoot.
The two men continued to point their guns at Brahm who was lying on the ground. Jack took a few steps forward and kicked away the knife on the ground. After making sure that the guy was already dead, he squatted down and checked it again. corpse.
This is a chemical expert, who knows if there are any dangerous items hidden on him. You must know that the United States does not conduct security checks on subways or ferries.
——
It only took a few days to solve the terrorist attack case, but the report was written until the weekend. Now without the help of the genius Encyclopedia Red, Jack had to immerse himself in the documents, and continued to I spent several days in a small office typing reports.
At 9 o'clock on Friday night, Jack finally finished all the reports, walked out of the office in a daze, and met his female boss with a cheerful face.
"Congratulations Jack, you may want to go to Washington, D.C. later."
Jack opened his mouth slightly, a little surprised, and then heard Dana Moger continue, "In recognition of your heroic behavior in the Dallas supermarket attack, the director decided to personally award you a 'Medal of Merit and Achievement'."
Ah, it’s been almost half a year since this happened. Did the above just think of it?
Jack complained in his heart, but quickly put a smile on his face and shook hands with his female boss.
A few months ago, Jack went to Dallas because of Walker's injury. As a result, he encountered a suicide attack in the local supermarket. Not only did he shoot and kill a man who was blocking the door and planning to blow himself up. The attacker also rushed into the fire and rescued a baby.
There was no movement from the FBI after that. He thought the matter was over like this, but now the old matter is brought up again. He doesn’t know whether it is the usual delay of the bureaucracy or Rossi’s plan to “make his name”. Effect.
Although the "Medal of Merit and Achievement" is only a medal within the FBI, it must be reported to the whole situation, and a commendation meeting will be held to allow the recipients to come on stage to receive the award, which is a big "show".
Of course the commendation meeting will not be held for him alone. There will be other medal winners at that time, but there will definitely be a photo of him and the Director in the newspaper. This means that he is not very good. Will you be able to return to BAU soon? What about Hannah?
"Rossi promised to lend you to me for at least three years." Seeing his worried look, the female boss seemed to see what he was thinking, rolled her eyes angrily, and clicked Wearing high heels, he turned and walked towards his office.
This old guy Rossi was really tricking him before. No wonder when he asked how long he wanted to stay in New York, he was always vague and refused to say it clearly. He didn't expect that the trap was dug here.
——
In the next few weeks, Jack was very busy, not only about the case, but also about business and private matters.
He first went to Washington, D.C., and under the gaze of a group of senior officials, he received a brilliant round medal from the gray-haired director.
Then he went back to Los Angeles and spent a weekend there. In addition to spending time with three long-lost beauties, he also signed a bunch of documents. Chris officially acquired a small publishing house and signed signed a contract with an anonymous writer.
This writer created the genre of American hegemony. Currently, several of his works can be seen at the bottom of the bestseller lists of many newspapers and magazines, including the New York Times. book.
Especially this writer's debut novel "The President's Contracted Wife", which is quite a dark horse, has almost entered the top 20 bestseller list of the season. Of course, the critics are all unanimous I feel so sad that I just want to curse this kind of book for causing harm to the country and the people.
I wish all my book friends a happy New Year and good health!
