Chapter 1206 Urgent Needs and Unexpected Visitors
"From the helicopter they used to snatch Hal Lockwood from the courthouse, to the death of Superintendent Montgomery, to the gunshots at the funeral just now.
All of this illustrates one thing. This is no longer a simple murder investigation. Cassell, the other party has escalated this into a war. ”
Jack's words caused everyone in the car to fall into silence. After a while, Beckett, as the person involved, stared at the expressionless gunman with extremely unkind eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "If they need a war, then we will give them They war.”
——
There is a small room of seven to eight square meters in the underground parking lot of the small building that serves as the base of the Most Wanted Criminal Team that has never been used. When it was being renovated, Jack specially selected fin-shaped sound-absorbing panels as the wall decoration here.
Jubal's test has shown good results. Even if he fires a series of shots with an assault rifle in the room, the sound cannot be transmitted to the lawn outside, let alone be heard by "neighbors" who are tens of meters or nearly a hundred meters away.
But when Jack locked the gunman with a stubborn look into a small room, he became worried again.
Strictly speaking, the guys around him are all good, law-abiding citizens, and none of them seem to have any experience in extorting confessions through torture.
After all, times have changed. Even the NYPD only focuses on intimidation when dealing with gang members. At most, it uses a few fists and kicks like Danny's to avoid surveillance. Nowadays, even hitting the chest with a hammer through the phone and yellow pages is an outdated tactic. .
And this silent gunman is obviously not something that can be dealt with by these ordinary tricks.
Jack had learned a few tricks from some old CIA, but he had some "idol" baggage on him, and he always felt that it was best not to easily expose his other side in front of these friends who were usually "law-abiding and good people".
Fortunately, a call to his personal mobile phone solved his urgent need. Frank Moses, the old CIA, told Jack in his usual calm voice that he had just arrived in New York.
Although he didn't quite understand why this guy asked if he was familiar with Chinatown, Jack still sent him the address of the small building. After repeatedly ensuring that it was absolutely safe, Frank hesitated and agreed to come over to meet him first.
During this time, Jack also made a series of arrangements. First, he notified Liam Neeson (crossed out) in Los Angeles, and then notified Brian Mills, asking him to bring the bodyguards from the security company to New York to pick him up. people.
Of the two living treasure duo, Esposito is single and has nothing to worry about. Kevin has a new wife, plus Cassel’s daughter Alexis and mother Martha, as well as the one who has not been released yet. Beckett's dad in cutscene.
Brian Mills will be responsible for sending all these people to Los Angeles, eliminating everyone's worries.
At the same time, this is also to reduce the number of insiders as much as possible. If the gunman reveals a big shot, Jack will have to "play it by ear".
The unexpected appearance of Frank Moses felt like a sleepy pillow to Jack. Now not only was there a candidate to be responsible for the torture, but he was also an operational expert who might be needed in the future.
You must know that in this weird world of suture monsters, the big bald man is Cassel's biological father. Even for the sake of Beckett, his future "daughter-in-law", he has to help.
Finally, Jack notified Jubal and his group, who had just finished the celebration in Margrave Town, asking them to take on any wanted missions and not return to New York for the time being.
After arranging all this, bald Frank finally drove up to the door in a tattered N-hand pickup truck, with a rather good-looking middle-aged lady sitting in the passenger seat.
Seeing this scene, Jack, who was waiting happily at the door, suddenly had a smile on his face.
"Why do you feel like you've seen a ghost when you see me?"
Frank smiled and patted Jack's shoulder and was about to lead the beautiful woman who was traveling with him through the door. However, after looking past him, he saw Cassel and Beckett standing in the entrance hall, as well as more unfamiliar faces in the living room. "Are you having a party?" Frank looked back at Jack, and then they were surprised to find that their expressions at this moment were surprisingly consistent.
"Dad, Frank, welcome to New York." The one whose expressions were more tense than theirs was Cassel, who didn't know whether to call him daddy for a moment.
The middle-aged lady who was being held by the bald man opened her beautiful eyes in surprise and looked at Cassel with disbelief written on her face, "Are you that Richard Cassel? God, I like you so much. Written by Nicky Hitt ”
Cassel, who unexpectedly gained a beautiful fan, glanced awkwardly at the hands the two were holding, and then asked Frank, "Who is this?"
Your stepmother, Jack on the side complained silently in his heart.
"Uh, she's Sarah Rose, my uh." Frank, who was equally embarrassed, had long lost the calmness on his face.
"This hairless guy kidnapped me and sneaked into my house late at night, saying he was a retired CIA agent and that I was in danger because of him. God knows we had only chatted on the phone before.
< br>
Then I met another bad guy who injected an anesthetic into my neck. When I woke up, I found that I was in New York. ”
Although she looked to be at least in her early 40s, the big-eyed beauty who still retained her charm seemed to have seen a savior. She hugged Cassell's arm and started talking non-stop.
Unlike Jack, who still remembered some of the plot of "Red Flame Battlefield", everyone else present was stunned by her vague description.
Please...you...collect 6...9...books...!
Perhaps because she saw a group of NYPD officers in formal uniforms, Sarah Ross suddenly felt emboldened to vent her grievances about being "captured" by Frank from Kansas City to New York.
"When someone called me 28 times a month to chat with me, a little customer service officer, on the pretext that the pension check had not been received, I thought I might have really met Mr. Right"
Frank scratched his bald head in embarrassment, "I thought you had understood our situation after my repeated explanations along the way."
"Yes, I have imagined many romantic scenes where we meet, but this definitely does not include kidnapping, drugging, and a hairless Prince Charming"
"Want some?" Jack promptly took out a large bowl of "black jelly" from his large refrigerator that had everything.
While Beckett was telling Sarah Rothkop about the effects of Turtle Ointment, Jack winked at Frank, so together with Cassel, the three of them went down to the underground garage together.
After spending half an hour communicating with each other, the two parties finally understood each other's situation.
Needless to say, Jack and Cassel are facing a big and difficult trouble, and Frank seems to be in trouble as well. He is also being hunted by an unknown force.
