North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 357 Imperfect Case Closing
Jimmy and Riley escorted Joe Coleman to the Anti-Terrorist Bureau building. Kerry was already waiting here. He arranged for someone to take over the escort and informed Jimmy to go directly to Noah.

Jimmy and Riley came to the command center together. Noah was already here. Seeing Jimmy and the others, he came out and took them back to his office with Agent Gordon.

Noah: "Tell me about the situation."

Jimmy glanced at Riley, who should be seeing Noah for the first time: "This is Detective Riley Butler from Newark, and he brought people to support our investigation.

On the street where the car disappeared, we judged that the car should have entered the garage, so we inquired about the house on that street.On the doorstep of Joe Coleman's house, we were attacked.

Joe Coleman was supposed to be about to run away. He asked someone to drive a van, and the people in the van went into his room. Then when he was about to show us the garage, the truck driver came out and confronted Riley. Shot and was shot dead by me.Joe Coleman was already wearing makeup, glasses and a beard, and he was already packing things in his room, and found a bomb that had not activated.

By the time we got back, the bomb squad had arrived, and the results are unclear now. "

Noah nodded, "Give this person to Kerry, and he will arrange the interrogation. You have to rest first, and you will be notified when there is news."

Jimmy nodded and turned to leave when Gordon, who was following him, suddenly said, "Jimmy, besides Joe Coleman, is there anything else to gain from the scene? Like the people behind the scenes."

Jimmy shook his head: "The on-site evidence investigation was done by the Newark office. I don't know yet. When we came back, they hadn't finished the inspection. The three people who were killed by me may have contact with the people behind the scenes. This depends on their investigation, and the other is the truck."

Riley next to him said: "My boss has already arranged, and the subsequent evidence and information will be provided to you at the same time."

Gordon nodded, "Let's go, you guys go down and rest for a while."

Now it's time to get off work, but Joe Coleman, who may be an engineer, has just been caught, so naturally there is no possibility of getting off work on time.Jimmy and the three of them returned to that meeting room, and now there are only a few of them.

Jimmy looked at the empty conference room and asked, "Where are Scott and the others?"

Gordon: "I'm going to investigate that Javier Vance. His information has been found by the Anti-Terrorist Bureau. He will be arrested after his identity is confirmed."

Jimmy took off his suit and hung it on the chair, loosened his tie, and let himself relax. "Okay, then we can only wait. Riley, are you hungry? I'll contact them for takeaway."

Gordon: "No, I've already arranged it in advance." He looked at his watch, "It will be delivered in half an hour. You should take a good rest."

Riley couldn't do the same thing. Now that he had already applauded, there was no choice. The three of them sat at the conference table and began to rest in a daze.
-
Jimmy already knew the interrogation style of the Anti-Terrorism Agency. They needed to check the interrogation results many times, so the results would not be so fast, but the results from the FBI office in Newark were provided quickly.

Riley turned on the speaker: "OK, now we can talk."

"El Kroger is his real name, the house is registered in his name, and Joe Coleman is a false name. We investigated his room, and in addition to the bomb, we found some Weapons and electronic equipment. The bomb disposal team has already dismantled the bomb. It is a 5-pound C4 bomb. The detonator has been inserted, but the timer has not been started, so it did not detonate. It is presumed that the time was set when he planned to leave to destroy the scene.

The three people who died were all black households. Their driver's licenses were all fake, and their fingerprint information was not found in the system.The van came from a rental car company, rented by Sam Coleman, one of the three.The clues are interrupted here, because all three people died, and it is temporarily uncertain where their final destination is. "

Jimmy: "What about El Kroger's experience? Education, work experience, family situation."

"El Kroger is an immigrant from Oman who immigrated to the United States 15 years ago and settled in Detroit. He started his career as a car salesman and moved to Rutherford, New Jersey five years ago. He has no family and no crimes. According to the records, the system shows that besides Rutherford’s real estate, he currently owns an apartment in Los Angeles, in West Hollywood.”

Jimmy: "This property is very important. Send me the address, and we will arrange for someone to inspect it immediately."

"Okay, I'll send it right away. There are no other clues for the time being. We are conducting fingerprint collection on the items in the room, hoping to gain something."

Jimmy motioned to Riley, and Riley said, "Let me know if there is any news. Just like that, the address will be sent."

Jimmy looked at Gordon, "Gordon, we need to contact the Los Angeles office immediately. Since there is a bomb in Rutherford's house, it is likely that El Kroger's house in Los Angeles has the same device."

Gordon nodded. Instead of looking for Noah, he took out his computer, looked up the phone number of the Los Angeles office, and contacted the local person in charge.

Jimmy checked the time, it was already past 8 o'clock in the evening. "Gordon, I don't think there will be any results today. I have something to do tonight. I'll leave for a while. Call me if you have any news."

Gordon looked at the time and nodded: "Well, don't worry, I will take care of it, take a good rest."

Jimmy said hello to Riley and left the CTA straight away.

He also sent a message to Tom this morning, saying that he would see you in the evening, and it would be unreasonable to let him go.

Jimmy drove away from CTA, texted that number, and got back a quick message.Jimmy took two cups of coffee outside and went home.

Soon, the doorbell rang, and Jimmy opened the door to let people in.Good guy, Tom's makeup skills are getting more and more outrageous. Now if Jimmy didn't know it was him, he wouldn't dare to put it in.

Messy hair, casual clothes, but dirty looking, carrying a tattered backpack.Although Tom was not young in the past, his face looked smooth, but today there are wrinkles on his forehead and eyes, and he looks like a proper homeless man.

"Tom, your look is very unique today." Jimmy greeted Tom with a smile.

"Well, there are some investigations in Brooklyn these days." Tom sat on the sofa, he didn't look outside at all, and Jimmy didn't care, there were more dirt and dirt on the sofa, and a new cover That's it.He is still different from Lao Mei. He prefers to put a layer of cloth cover on the sofa. When cleaning, he directly removes the cloth cover and washes it. Just wipe the sofa underneath.

"What would you like to drink?" Jimmy asked as he walked towards the refrigerator.

"No, I'll just chat. Jimmy, you said last year that Jason Bourne appeared in Paris, right? Can you tell me your source?" Tom rejected Jimmy's offer, and Jimmy He didn't stop, and took out two cans of Coke.

"It's hard to tell the source of the news. I can only confirm that there was such a thing at the time. Although I don't know the name, there was indeed a director who died in Paris." Jimmy has no source of news at all, it is something in his memory, there is no way Say.

Tom nodded: "I've confirmed this, Jason Bourne is not dead, he should have been hidden, but something went wrong with Conklin, the supervisor at the time, he died in Paris, the bureau speculates that it should be Jason Bourne Bourne did it. After Conklin's death, Senior Advisor Albert has reported to stop the stumbling block project. You have not been activated so far, so you should be safe.

But what I am worried about now is Albert. This person is very problematic. Although no one really investigates him, as far as I know, this old guy is not a clean person. He has your file in his hand. If he If you really want to do something, you are likely to be used. There are not many hidden agents who are stumbling blocks, and you should be the only one in the local area. "

Jimmy was speechless, "Hey, no one can stop the bad luck. Unless you find a way to kill everyone who knows the stumbling block, there will always be such a day. Tom, if it doesn't work, just let him go. You still Let's get that thing done with you first. After so long, have you found out who is going to kill you?"

Tom shook his head: "The relationship between the upper-level people is too complicated. Although many people have been investigated, no specific person has been found."

Jimmy: "You deal with your business first. If no one comes to you again, it's okay. They hide so deeply, or you can change your identity and live again. I don't think James wants you to disappear again. gone."

Tom was silent. If it weren't for deep-seated hatred, who wouldn't want to live a stable life?

Jimmy saw that Tom stopped talking, so he told the current situation: "Tom, I am now dealing with the bomb attack on the Anti-Terrorist Bureau, and I have already contacted Noah Watson."

Tom suddenly stood up, "What? Say it again?"

Jimmy: "I met with Noah Watson. There was a bomb attack. I was responsible for it. Then it became too big. The Anti-Terrorism Agency and the FBI worked together on this case. Now I see Noah Watson every day. Watson."

Tom sat down, "He didn't suspect you, did he? How long have you been in contact?"

Jimmy: "It's been more than a week. At present, it seems that he doesn't know me at all, and there is no abnormal behavior."

Tom nodded, "Well, since it's already like this, I can only hope that he hasn't read your file. Fortunately, you are a potential employee, and becoming an FBI can be regarded as a talisman. Now that you have known each other, let's Don’t meet at your home in the future, it’s easy to make you the target of some people.”

Jimmy nodded: "You can determine the location in the future, and I will find you. Seriously, don't you consider retiring? Meet James? James is also retiring. You can live closer to take care of him."

Tom shook his head, "Let's talk about this later, I will think about it. You must pay attention here, don't turn on the CIA phone, don't install the battery, just pretend it doesn't exist. If someone contacts you, be sure to protect it Be yourself."

After speaking, Tom got up directly, picked up his backpack and prepared to leave.Jimmy sent Tom out and began to tidy up the living room, cleaned up Tom's place, and wiped all the places he touched to make sure no fingerprints were left.

Early the next morning, Jimmy came to the Counter Terrorism Bureau, and Gordon and Riley were already in the conference room. "Hey, Gordon, Riley, you're here early." Jimmy greeted them and sat down.

Riley shrugged: "I have nothing else to do now, but come here early."

Gordon: "Jimmy, that Javier Vance has been caught. He confessed last night that he was a middleman, responsible for procurement and inspection, and he did not handle the transportation afterwards."

Jimmy: "Ha, the first good news of the day. Where's El Kroger who was brought back? Did he confess?"

Gordon shook his head: "This person is also tough, but it should be soon. Kerry and the others didn't go back at all last night, they have been dealing with their affairs."

Jimmy: "Has the apartment in Los Angeles been inspected?"

Gordon: "It's clean there, nothing was found. I guess their goal has always been New York."

Jimmy sighed: "When is the head, this case is too troublesome."

Gordon looked at Jimmy and laughed, "That's pretty good, at least we've been advancing the case. Without these clues, we'd still be looking for bombs."

Jimmy nodded: "Now I just hope to get information about the camel as soon as possible, find the mastermind behind it, and we can close the case."

Riley chimed in: "Jimmy, how long have you been working on this case?"

Jimmy: "It's been two or three weeks. The case is too complicated. We only had a few clues from the very beginning, and a big fish was drawn little by little."

Before Riley could speak, Kerry entered the meeting room, "Hey, guys, he has confessed, you should get busy."

Jimmy: "What result?"

Kerry looked unhappy: "The identity of the camel has been investigated." He put the folder in his hand on the table and pushed it to Jimmy, "John Byrd, originally from France, came to the United States in the 90s and established a Consulting company, the main business is to provide American localization support for French companies. Of course, these are the contents of the file.

In fact, his real name is Nur Mohammed, and his identity was done in France, so after coming to the United States, he has always used his French identity for activities.The specific country of origin is unknown for the time being. It is speculated that it is Syria or a country in the Middle East. Apparently they started planning very early and started preparing for this case after receiving the order. In addition to using people who were hidden in the country before, they also smuggled people from abroad. A group of people came in, and the driver Abdul was the fake identity they arranged for.

El Kroger is one of them and an important backbone.The three people who were killed by you were sent by Noor to take El away.After you arrested the people in the warehouse yesterday, El came to the vicinity of the warehouse. After discovering the abnormality, he went back to clean up the temporary residence and arranged to detonate a homemade bomb.

Nuer sent someone to pick up Er and was about to leave. However, we were delayed for some time yesterday. When I asked someone to investigate Nuer, I found that he had bought the ticket last night and had already flown to Paris. He should have landed by now.Originally, El was supposed to be with him, and the ticket had already been booked. He probably found out that El hadn't joined him, so he slipped away early. "

"Fxxk!" Jimmy picked up the file and threw it on the table. "We've been doing it for so long, and the mastermind ran away?"

Kerry looked at the angry Jimmy and nodded: "Yes, he has already run away. If we hadn't checked his entry and exit situation by the way when we checked, we would have missed the ticket situation. According to the airport surveillance video, last night After 8:[-], Nuer did board the plane and leave."

Jimmy looked hopeless. After working so hard for so long, all he caught were small fish and shrimps. The most important mastermind ran away. It was so uncomfortable, it was as uncomfortable as eating a lump of X.

Kerry: "The situation is like this. Now you should be dispatched. Noor has two properties and a company under his name. You need to investigate and collect evidence from these places. The address is in the file."

Jimmy picked up the file again and took a look: "Riley, he has a property in Newark, your site, and the other is in Brooklyn, and the company is in Manhattan. Gordon, you can arrange it." Jimmy put the file Closed and handed to Gordon.

Gordon took a look, "Jimmy, it's better to go back and apply for a search warrant. Now that the situation is like this, let's go through the process, and it will be convenient to apply for a warrant later."

Jimmy nodded: "Okay, I'll go back to the bureau first."

On the way back to the station, Jimmy received a call from ATF agent Johnny Bullock. The analysis results there have come out, but it doesn't make much sense anymore. It can only be used as evidence to sue El Kroger , Everyone caught it, and many things belonged to the icing on the cake.

Jimmy returned to the bureau and reported the situation to Hughes before applying for a search warrant.Jimmy also went to the federal court. Although it was the first time he applied for a search warrant, he didn't encounter any bullshit. The judge issued a search warrant after checking the chain of evidence.The bomb terrorist attack was too big. Although the search warrant Jimmy applied for did not clearly state what he was looking for, it was still approved. This is considered a special case and special treatment.

Theoretically, the search warrant should be clearly stated. For example, if you are looking for something, some locations will be specified in the search warrant, and non-designated locations are not allowed to search.If you want to find an M16, you can't search the boxes that obviously can't hide the M16.Another example is to ask a designated person to provide a mobile phone or computer, so you cannot take away his U disk or the like.Of course, this is just a theory, and special cases naturally require special treatment.

Although the process went smoothly, it was already afternoon when Jimmy got the search warrant. He made an appointment with the forensics department in advance, and the troops went to Noor's office in Manhattan and Brooklyn's apartment in two ways.

Jimmy didn't follow the forensics team. He just gave them a search warrant. If the scene needs to be blocked, he can directly contact NYPD to resist it first, and then contact the field agents to go.

However, things didn't go so smoothly. Before Jimmy could breathe a sigh of relief, a tragic news came.After opening the door of Noor’s apartment in Brooklyn, the bomb fuze was triggered. The bomb hidden in that apartment exploded. All three detectives in the forensics department were seriously injured. The only good news is that the ambulance arrived very quickly after the explosion. Although the three were seriously injured, at least their lives were saved.

Jimmy immediately informed Riley that Noor's house in Newark was now to be sealed off in advance, and all the people around were evacuated, waiting for the bomb disposal team to check first before investigating the evidence in the room.

As for the apartment in Brooklyn, we can only arrange for experts from the bomb disposal team to go to the scene to check. As for the evidence, there is no hope. The power of the explosion is not small. Although the apartment building was not blown down, the room was completely destroyed It was blown up. Under such circumstances, there is basically no possibility of investigating evidence.
