Chapter 660: Everything is not going well
"He was injured by a gunshot and can't run far." Hannah kissed Jack on the lips and comforted her. She just felt funny in her heart. She always looked like this when she saw him. He looked confident and confident, but the angry scene at the moment was really rare to see.
“Tsk, tsk, I really envy you two.” Danny Regan, who happened to arrive just in time, came from the other end of the alley with a smirk on his face. He first put away his gun and then pointed at the corner of his mouth. , indicating that Jack had lipstick marks there.
Hannah just changed her clothes, but she hadn’t had time to take off her flaming red lip makeup.
Jack rolled his eyes at him angrily, took the wet tissue from Hannah's hand, first helped her wipe off the somewhat mushy lipstick, then turned over and wiped the corners of his mouth casually.
I don’t know where this guy got the face to laugh at me. When everyone was gathering, he would often have sex with his wife Linda. For those who didn’t know, he thought they were a newlywed couple instead of an old couple who had been married for more than ten years. .
"Givens was shot on the right shoulder blade. You, the NYPD, need to immediately notify hospitals and emergency centers in the city."
Jack paused and added, "Let the patrol officers warn those Underground clinics, oh, and also pay attention to pet hospitals and undertakers, that kind of people should know how to avoid the police's sight and obtain medical resources."
When talking about business, Danny's face became serious, "No. Question, in addition, a large team of police officers will arrive later. Since this guy is here, maybe the kidnapped children are nearby, and the NYPD will search this apartment building and nearby areas door to door. "
< br>Leaving the rest of the matter to Danny and the people he brought to finish the matter, Jack and Hannah returned to the car and drove towards the federal building. In less than an hour, the time required by the kidnappers was approaching. They had to Check back to see if there is any new news.
Less than two kilometers away, the traffic ahead began to become congested again. Jack helplessly spread his hands to Hannah on the passenger seat and turned on the hidden police lights.
Just then the cell phone rang, Jack pressed the call button, and Jubal's voice rang, "The anonymous cell phone you just found is turned on, and we have located Givens' location."
Jack couldn't help but perked up, smiled and gave Hannah a high-five, "Where is he? Let's rush there now."
"It's five streets to the south and three streets to the west of you. It's moving north, you should be able to catch him and stop him." Jack's Dodge Hellcat has the FBI's positioning, and Jubal can clearly see the relative positions of the two sides on the big screen.
"Sit tight Hannah." Jack said and turned on the siren, then turned the steering wheel sharply and pulled the handbrake. The Dodge Hellcat made a beautiful drift U-turn and headed west.
"Can you confirm the dark gray Chevrolet through road surveillance?"
"We haven't been able to find that car yet. Keep your eyes open, the other party may change cars." Jubal reminded.
Ten minutes later, the fast-moving Hellcat made another beautiful drift and turned left at an intersection. Jubal's speech on the phone became faster, "The other party should be right in front of you. You are now We're going in the opposite direction, did you see anything?"
"Huh?" Jack looked at the large garbage truck coming towards him and looked at Hannah in confusion, and the latter's eyes were full of questions.
"Squeak" The Hellcat with its police lights flashing parked in the middle of the road, blocking the direction of the garbage truck. The two men took out their sidearms and got out of the car. They relied on the bulletproof door for cover and aimed their guns. Two municipal workers in the cab.
"FBI, get out of the car and put your hands where we can see them." As Hannah yelled, two municipal workers with yellow-green reflective strips on their uniforms on the garbage truck looked confused and got off. Che put his hands on the bumper of the truck.
Although the two men didn't feel like disguised gangsters, Jack cautiously went forward and searched his lower body to confirm that the other party was not carrying a gun, and then took out his mobile phone and pulled up Givens' photo.
“Have you seen this man?”
“No, sir.”
“Is there anyone else in the car?”
"It's just the two of us."
The two Latino municipal workers were so obedient that it made people feel distressed. They put their hands on the bumper in front of the hood, not daring to move.
Jack did not dare to let down his guard. It was not surprising that the gang had previously pretended to be bank debt collectors and collected other people's cars, and they also pretended to be municipal workers.
Hannah had already circled the garbage truck and came back, shaking her head at Jack, "There was no one in the cab, and there was no one under the chassis. Is it possible that he threw the phone away and was Put it in a garbage truck?”
Jack shook his head, feeling that this was unlikely. Since the other party could turn on the phone, he obviously didn’t expect that the phone would be tracked, and they didn’t find other packaging of the phone. Box, it is unlikely to be thrown away after use.
Now the only place where people can hide is the garbage car at the back. "You watch the two of them here." Jack turned his head to Hannah and motioned for her to stay where she was. He walked to the back of the car and spoke three times. Climbed into the carriage. Under several large garbage bags, there was a body covered in blood. It was Givens who had been shot by him before.
——
The combat center was as noisy as ever, the phone was ringing, and everyone was busy nervously. Dana Moger, who was standing in the corridor, had a rather troubled expression. Not good.
Seeing the two men returning, Jubal stepped forward and patted Jack on the shoulder, shook his head without saying anything, and walked to Agent Lacroix to discuss with him in a low voice.
"What happened? How did Givens die in the garbage truck?" The female boss didn't mean to blame Jack, but now that the only clue was cut off, she was inevitably in a bad mood.
"The specific situation is unclear. The NYPD just found a trash can with a lot of blood stains along the route of the garbage truck. This should be the reason why he was loaded into the garbage truck, but I haven't thought about it yet. I understand why this guy hid in the trash can after abandoning the car."
Jack felt his head hurt. Why did he encounter some unruly things today? The anonymous mobile phone was indeed there. On the other party's body, but there is no call record on it.
"Then his car should be near the trash can, haven't you found it?" the female boss asked strangely.
Hannah shook her head, "Nothing was found. The NYPD searched two nearby blocks and found nothing. Detective Danny Regan is mobilizing patrol officers across the city to search together."
"So now we are back to where we started. There is no trace of the school bus or the children. All we have is a video demanding ransom."
Dana Moger looked at the big screen and took a deep breath. , cheered up, "Play that video again."
A otaku technician from the IT logistics department said while typing on the keyboard, "The video file has been processed, and some of the underlying data has been deleted. We can't even confirm whether the shooting tool is a camera or a mobile phone.
The other party is a master who is proficient in computers. The IP address of the uploaded attachment comes from a proxy server in Cyprus. I have been trying to track it and have followed a bunch of 'broilers'. "I've been around the earth for more than ten times, and to be honest, I don't have much hope."
While talking, the video was played again, and a man in a black hood appeared in front of the camera grabbing a little boy of about ten years old. .
The video was not long, and the man in the black hood said less than three sentences in total. The first sentence was a threat. After that, he grabbed the little boy in front of the camera, and then notified the governor's office to prepare one million US dollars in cash. Contact us again in an hour and a half.
The video pauses, the screen freezes, and a female analyst points at the screen with a laser pointer.
“We tried to identify the shooting location, but there was no natural light around and the floor was not photographed, so it was difficult to tell whether it was a bedroom or a basement. The background panel behind the two people was a hanging white double bed sheet. No obvious features or signs were captured.
So, I hate to say it, but it could have been anywhere, and to be honest, we couldn’t help. ”
The female analyst looked a little guilty. Dana Moger was not the one to vent her anger on her subordinates, but instead hugged her shoulders to comfort her.
"Since we lack factual evidence, it's your turn now. Old partner, do what you do best." Jubal forcibly pushed Jess Lacroix forward, who had a look on his face. A dumbfounded expression.
“Okay, okay.” Jess Lacroix stood next to Jack and stood side by side with him. “This hooded man is a person who gives orders and is used to controlling everything. From the speed of his speech, You can tell by the wording and the tone of voice, what do you think? Agent Tavole, oh, by the way, can I call you Jack?"
"Of course, Agent Lacroix, you can't tell. Question." Jack responded with a smile. This man was far superior to him in terms of age and seniority in the FBI. This was a very friendly gesture.
"Thank you Jack." Lacroix nodded in response, then changed the subject and raised his tone slightly, "This also means that he is not Sam Givens.
The Sam I know doesn't have that high level of education, nor that level of self-confidence, so this guy is the real leader we're looking for."
Jubal scratched his head subconsciously, "Although you always have a way to make me irritable, I have never doubted your ability in this area."
Then he turned towards the analysts who were listening. They said loudly, "OK, this guy is the leader, Givens is just a member of the team.
This means a new leader, new motivations, and a new behavior pattern, damn, I I think the series of bad things that happened today are confusing enough."
"Wait a minute, is the kid in the video called Owen Jamerson?"
Jack, who had been staring at the screen, always felt that the child's behavior in front of the video was a bit strange. Although he did look scared, especially the moment he was grabbed by the collar and pushed to the camera, it seemed that he was not only afraid of The kidnappers seemed more like they were afraid of discovering some secret.
