North American Gunslinger Detective

Peter: "Yesterday morning, the staff of the gallery reported the theft after discovering the theft. The case was initially inspected by the NYPD, and then it was transferred to our side because of the artwork crime. Now the scene has been blocked by the NYPD. We need to go out immediately and do it again. On-site investigation. Disbanded. Jimmy, you stay."

After everyone else had left, Peter said to Jimmy, "Did you report your spare gun this morning?"

Jimmy: "Not yet, I'll report right away."

Peter: "Well, go now and complete the report as soon as possible to avoid trouble from the NYPD."

Jimmy went out with the folder and reported the spare gun, just go to the administrative department Tim, and the administrative department will deal with it uniformly after Jimmy reports it.

When Jimmy came back, Peter was chatting with a middle-aged blonde beauty in the conference room. When Peter saw Jimmy, he stretched out his right hand and hooked his fingers, and Jimmy also entered the conference room.

In other words, people like the FBI really like to hook their index and middle fingers together. When they were in the FBI academy, those instructors also did this. Even Jimmy is now used to hooking his fingers with both fingers.

Peter: "This is Dr. Mary Walter from the bureau. Don't go out with us today. Dr. Walter will talk to you later."

Jimmy frowned, and tilted his head to signal Peter to go outside with him. Peter looked at Jimmy, turned his head and said "wait a moment" to Dr. Mary, followed Jimmy out of the meeting room, and Jimmy closed the door behind him.

Jimmy: "Peter, is Dr. Walter a psychiatrist? Is it because I shot yesterday that I need psychological intervention?"

Peter: "Of course, you opened fire on your first day as an agent, killing one and injuring the other. Psychological intervention must be arranged."

Jimmy: "It's not necessary, really, I've done a lot of shooting, let's go to the case first."

Peter: "What do you mean?"

Jimmy: "Peter, have you seen my file? It's not the FBI academy file, it's my previous job, when I was a police officer."

Peter frowned at Jimmy, nodded, then walked into his office and worked on the computer.

Jimmy didn't move either, and stood at the door of the meeting room. Peter's office was connected to the meeting room, and the outside was glass, so he could see his operations at a glance.

Below, Diana and Jones stood by their desks, packed up and waiting for Peter and Jimmy to go downstairs.

Peter looked at it for a while, and entered the conference room directly through the door behind his office. He said a few words to Dr. Mary Walter, then shook hands and sent Dr. Mary away.

Peter didn't say anything, and took Jimmy, Diana and Jones downstairs together. Jimmy was in Peter's car, and Jones and Diana were in the same car.

On the way, Peter didn't speak, but the expression on his face was not very peaceful, and he would frown occasionally. Jimmy was sitting in the co-pilot, occasionally looking at Peter from the corner of his eye. He had no idea what Peter was thinking.

When he came to Denley Gallery, Jimmy's eyes were opened, because he had been walking in Lower Manhattan for the past two days, and all he saw were the scenes in the commercial district. It was only a few kilometers away, and suddenly the painting style changed.

Lower Manhattan is a prosperous business district, while Chelsea is mainly a cultural and artistic atmosphere. Jimmy can see many nearby art exhibitions, or pseudo-arts, many of which are displayed on the roadside. It is a normal display of paintings, sculptures, and some so-called exhibits that are piled up with waste. They look very weird. Jimmy can't understand how the brains of these artists grow.

The structure of Denley Gallery is very simple. There are two entrances and exits. The front is the entrance of the exhibition hall, and the back is the staff entrance.

The decoration of the front exhibition hall is still very good, with milky white walls, and there are some square platforms against the wall, which are convenient for placing artworks on them, while art exhibitions are usually hung directly on the wall. The exhibition hall is just a hall, not like those big ones. Like a gallery, a partition wall is arranged in the middle of the exhibition hall.

The monitoring of the gallery is only two monitors in the opposite corner of the exhibition hall, and it is not like other large exhibition halls with all-round monitoring without dead ends.As for the silent alarm device, I'm sorry, for cost considerations, they didn't do it at all.This is just a small gallery and does not have the level of security required for high value art exhibitions.

There are 10 paintings in Rachel Homan's exhibition this time, 4 on the left and 2 on each side, and [-] on the wall inside. Because the gallery does not allow photography, there are no other photos except for some photos taken by Rachel when setting up the exhibition. For reference, these photos are just the positions of a few paintings, without the details of the paintings, so Peter and the others do not have complete photos for reference.

Peter: "Diana, go talk to Rachel and see if she has clear photos of those 10 paintings, or other monitoring is fine, and check her network.

Jones, you check out the gallery staff and management. "

Peter didn't arrange Jimmy, so Jimmy followed Peter in the exhibition hall to check the details.Peter put on disposable gloves and began to check the traces on the wall, and then compared the trajectories of the two thieves in the surveillance to find out if there were any clues left on the ground and the direction of movement.

Because the floor of the gallery is paved with floor tiles, it is difficult to locate footprints on such a floor. In addition, there are a lot of people coming and going during the exhibition. Without specific remnants, it is basically useless.

Peter took Jimmy to the outside of the gallery and looked left and right. Peter said, "Jimmy, go to the left to check where there is surveillance." Then Peter went to the right, and Jimmy went to the left to check the surveillance.

Jimmy started to look forward along the left side. The gallery is in the middle, and there is a lot of distance from the intersection. You don’t have to think about the traffic cameras. You can’t see anything. The key is whether there are these shops and apartment buildings on the roadside camera in that direction.

Jimmy asked around. The monitoring of several stores here is all internal monitoring, and there is no monitoring of the outside. It took 10 minutes, and Jimmy finally gave up. Because of the problems of the times, the cost of monitoring is still Very high, these people only care about themselves and don’t care about other people’s. There is no surveillance installed outside the store, all of them are controlled internally. Even if they are photographed outside, it is only a small area at the door, and even the cars on the road cannot be photographed.

Jimmy returned across the road, and when he was approaching the gallery, he suddenly found something that might have a video, an ATM machine embedded in the wall.

Jimmy comes to the ATM and looks in the direction of the gallery, not directly, but if the camera has a slightly wider range, maybe he can see a little bit.
