Chapter 996 Still in Hawaii (6)
Although someone has already deeply understood the saying that misfortunes never come singly, it does not mean that they can calmly accept the continuous bad news.
It was already evening when Jack and Danny returned to the office. Before they could sit down and take a breath, Kono also returned from the crime laboratory and brought back extremely bad news.
The large package of clothing sent to the crime laboratory has been confirmed to be contaminated with smallpox virus. Researchers are handling these dangerous items carefully, hoping to extract enough for DNA comparison Hair and other biological testing materials.
But some things can be known without testing, such as the size of clothes and pants. The researchers confirmed at least four different sizes in that large package of clothes, and also found four smashed computers. A crappy phone.
Kono was able to find these things based on Palmer's cell phone, which was somewhat lucky, because his cell phone only had the screen smashed and the damage was not complete enough.
"This means we have at least three more victims, and they may still be alive."
Danny is about to explode, the real person responsible for "Five-O" is Steve McGarrett, as an assistant, he is just filling in for the day, otherwise he wouldn't be dragging his injured "eldest nephew" around.
As a result, the case has been investigated for a day, and the dark cloud of "biochemical terror attack" is still hanging over our heads, and now three more potential victims have appeared, whose life or death is unknown.
Oahu may not be a big island, but it is home to more than two-thirds of the population of the entire state of Hawaii, with nearly one million residents, not counting tourists.
For a while, it was not easy to find three people who might be infected with the smallpox virus in the huge crowd.
“Don’t mess up.” Jack quickly reassured Danny, “The sudden appearance of Brian Palmer was obviously an accident. Even the murderer didn’t expect it, so he dealt with it in a hurry. Insider Ken Tanner.
The other three people may have been used as virus experiments and are under the control of the other party.
The top priority now is to find out their identities and wait for the DNA comparison. It's obviously not a good idea to have the crime labs prioritize the sim cards inside the damaged phones, that's the quickest way to do it.
Also, those fingerprints that were extracted from Ken Tanner's home are now available. Did you compare the results? ”
The next half of his sentence was directed at Cheng Hao, who was busy in front of the computer instead of Kono. The latter was frowning at the screen. Hearing this, he seemed to have woken up from a dream, and he quickly operated the mouse and clicked the print button.
"I didn't find any information in the local criminal database, but just now, your colleagues in New York found the owner of this fingerprint from the federal database."
As he spoke At this moment, the printer was already working creakingly, spitting out many sheets of A4 paper in succession.
"It's all here. This guy has a strange name, Dracula Comescu?"
Danny just received the information, but he hasn't heard the name yet. Looking at it, he slapped his forehead, "So, in addition to the ancient deadly virus, we also have to deal with the ancient vampire, right?"
"Maybe, anyway, it says this guy is Romanian." Cheng Hao shrugged.
Jack did not participate in the two people's showmanship. His attention was attracted by the information Cheng Hao put on the screen. The information was not detailed, but a note on it caught his attention.
"This name has been marked by NCIS?" "What does it mean that this name has been marked by NCIS?" Danny stopped reading the information and curiously poked his head over to join in the discussion.
Jack was about to say something when his cell phone rang suddenly. He thought it was a friend from New York looking for him, but it turned out to be an unfamiliar landline number. Judging from the area code, it was from Los Angeles. .
Could it be that Chris has something to do with him? With this in mind, he pressed the call button, but the unfamiliar voice coming from the other side of the phone made him startled.
"Hello, Agent Jack Tavole, I am Heidi Lange, Director of Operations in the Special Projects Office of NCIS. I heard that you were unfortunately injured not long ago. I would like to know if this is It will affect your next work."
"Uh" Hearing this slightly older female voice, the image of a skinny little old lady instantly appeared in front of Jack's eyes, and he couldn't help but shudder.
"Hello, Director Heidi Lange, I'm honored to receive your concern. I'm fine. I'm almost healed."
He didn't expect that he hadn't met Da Mingming yet. When I first came into contact with NCIS (Naval Criminal Investigative Service), the first person I came into contact with was OSP, a special department affiliated with NCIS.
In Jack's previous life, there was an NCIS spin-off called NCIS: Los Angeles, which at first glance seemed to be a local NCIS office in Los Angeles.
But in fact, just as the person on the phone announced his home address just now, the full name of this special department of NCIS headquartered in Los Angeles is the Office of Special Projects (OSP), which together is NCIS-OSP.
OSP is responsible for some cases involving special secrets within the Navy. In terms of confidentiality level, it may even be higher than ordinary NCIS agents.
Of course, this is not the reason why Jack is so respectful. After all, generally speaking, the FBI and NCIS are two departments that are incompatible with each other and have no relationship at all.
NCIS is part of the Pentagon and is responsible for investigating any crime that has a shred of evidence related to Navy and Marine Corps personnel.
Maybe there will be some communication between the two parties under certain special circumstances, but the division of labor will only be based on the actual situation of the case at that time. Case A may be dominated by NCIS, and in case B, the FBI may be dominated. There is no meaningful difference. level relationship.
What really makes Jack feel like he is facing a formidable enemy is Heidi Lange on the other side of the phone at this moment. In the original play, this little old lady is a very prestigious person, even the Secretary of the Navy. A mysterious figure who everyone should respect.
In terms of seniority and age, she was active in the same era as the old CIA Joe Mason. In terms of qualifications alone, she may be older than the bald Frank. She is a person who has truly survived the Cold War. The legendary spy.
Although Jack has never met this legendary grandmother in this world, he knows that she is one of the few old friends of Joe Mason who is still alive in this world and still keeps in touch with her.
Based on this alone, no matter how serious he was at this time, it would not be exaggerated.
Heidi Lange on the other side of the phone didn't seem surprised that Jack seemed to recognize her, and even let out a few raucous laughs.
"You are a little too nervous, young man. I have heard about your deeds, and I really hope that I can have an agent as good as you, but little Rossi seems to think highly of you. Very tight. "
Well, from this sentence, Jack can at least be sure that this old lady is not some "little XX" of his teacher.
