North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 173
Half an hour later, Harteng came to the bar, still wearing a gray casual suit, wearing a pair of glasses, holding a briefcase in his hand, and dressed as an office worker. The last time I saw Harteng at the bar, he was dressed like this Dressing up is either his personal habit or the FBI's disguise style.

Harden sat on the chair to Jimmy's right, knocked on the bar and said to the bartender, "McCallan, thank you." After speaking, he took out his wallet and took out a banknote and put it on the bar.

Hearing Harden's voice, Jimmy turned his head and took a look. Harden turned to Jimmy and said, "Hi, Jimmy, long time no see."

Jimmy also turned around, facing Harden: "Good evening, Harden, you rarely contact me, what's the matter?"

The bartender brought the wine over at this time, "Sir, your Macallan."

Harden reached for the wine glass and clinked the glass with Jimmy, "Cheers"

Jimmy picked up the glass from the bar with his left hand, touched Harden, and drank what was left in the glass. "Paul, have another drink." The bartender Paul took Jimmy's wine from the wine cabinet, refilled his glass and added ice cubes.

Harden: "Don't worry, let's go out and talk after drinking."

Jimmy: "Haha, there must be something wrong, let's go, let's talk in the reception room, it's clean over there."

When Jimmy received the call from Harden, he guessed that there must be something. He had already greeted Justin in advance, and the reception room was not open to the public. Except for Justin and the others, Jimmy could also use it for greeting.

Of course, the main reason is that Jimmy is more familiar with the people in the bar, and he is also worry-free in handling affairs, and nothing will happen.

Jimmy and Harteng came to the reception room next to the bar and closed the door. There was no outside noise coming from inside. This place has been specially silenced, and there are exhaust vents on it to ensure the air circulation in the room.

Jimmy and Harden sat down and put the wine glasses on the tea table. Harden spoke first.

Harden: "Jimmy, what's life like at the sheriff's office?"

Jimmy: "Fortunately, there are not too many things to do, and you can be lazy. If you don't know how to find me, just ask this. Tell me, what's the matter?"

Harden: "Well, I didn't see it. You are still impatient. You know what happened this time. There was too much noise. All of us canceled our vacation and started to investigate terrorist activities."

Jimmy: "Well, let's not talk about you federal agents, our police are the same, I was on vacation in other places, and I was called back. I have been busy for several days, and it is rare to have a rest tomorrow."

Harden: "Gone, unconfirmed, the FBI is going to expand. Are you interested?"

Jimmy: "Don't you guys recruit from the FBI Academy all the time?"

Harden: "That's right, they are generally screened based on registration, and then enter the FBI Academy for training, and are assigned to different departments after graduation. However, we also have special recruitment channels. Of course, there are not many people who take this route."

Jimmy: "It seems that I meet your conditions?"

Harden: "Don't think too much, I'm just recommending it. If you agree, there will be special personnel to communicate with you and conduct background checks."

Jimmy: "Does this channel directly become an agent? Do you still need training?"

Harden: "Training is still required, but the process will be shorter. The regular academy training is 20 weeks and 5 months. If you go through special channels, it will definitely not take so long."

Jimmy: "Sounds good, but let me think about it."

Harden: "Of course, you can think about it slowly, but it's best not to take too long."

Jimmy: "Well, I'll call you if I have any news."

Harden: "Okay, now that the business is done, let's talk about something small."

Jimmy laughed, too, if it's just to recruit the FBI, Harten has plenty of time to contact him, why bother after get off work.

Jimmy picked up his glass and touched Harden.

Harden: "Well, a little personal matter of mine. There were a few homicide cases before, but they were put on hold because there were no clues.

Not long ago we got some information from an informant that there was a small church whose Bible was a tampered NC Bible. We suspected that their church was related to those cases.

However, because we are all busy with terrorist attacks, these cases have been temporarily put on hold. If you are free, can you help with the investigation? "

Jimmy: "I just heard you say the NC Bible, right? What's that?"

Harden: "Yes, the NC Bible. There is a saying that it was a version of the Bible that Hitler personally arranged to tamper with before World War II. Many quotations from God were tampered with in it to brainwash believers in NC. It was very popular in Germany at that time, and it was printed in large quantities.

After the end of World War II, the Allied Powers and the Holy See should have arranged for people to clear it up. As a result, news has come out again. It seems that the handling was not clean at that time. "

Jimmy: "Of course it's not clean. After the end of World War II, how many scientists and other personnel were secretly transferred to China by the government is not necessarily countable. It is not difficult to bring a Bible out.

Speaking of **, I think I know what case you're talking about.There were two homicides in Little Rock last Christmas. The deceased was placed in the shape of an anti-swastika. By the way, there was another deceased who was placed in a three-legged figure. Are these three cases? "

Harden: "You also know about this case. You are right, but it is not three cases, but four cases. Little Rock has two anti-swastikas, one three-legged figure, and Fayetteville has one anti-swastika. swastika.

This series of cases was originally in the hands of the LRPD, but was later taken over by the state police, and then transferred to the FBI's Little Rock office.This kind of case is obviously a series. It is not done by the same person, but also by a team. Relatively speaking, we have more experience. "

Jimmy: "Well, I probably know. Where is this small church? Any clues?"

Hartten: "It is currently known that it is in a villa on the bank of the Arkansas River. However, the informant has limited information. We have not yet locked in on the location of the villa. What we can confirm is that the villa is in a forest. So it's definitely not in Little Rock, it should be in the eastern suburbs."

Jimmy: "There is no way to lock the target with only this clue. Although I don't know the exact number, but the Arkansas River is so long, even if you only count the river banks within Pulaski County, it will not be possible to find it in a short time. "

Harden: "So I said if you have time, help find it, don't look for it specially. After we have free manpower, we still have to deal with this case.

In fact, there is a bad guess. Last Christmas, they were all killed at 0 o'clock. If it is really a cult, then it is very likely that there will be an accident this Christmas. Now there are only more than 3 months before Christmas. Time is running out, if they can't get rid of them in advance, I really don't know how many people will be killed this year. "

Jimmy: "You can send a copy of the case file to the police station. I'll check it out when I have time. Is there anything else?"

Harden: "No, just these things, do you want to come to the FBI? Remember to inform me in advance when you have a decision. I don't know if the process has changed now. I need to contact the headquarters at that time."

Jimmy: "Understood. Come on, let's get out."

Jimmy and Harden left the reception room and returned to the bar. There were already many people at this time, and instead of sitting at the bar drinking, they went to play separately.
