North America Gunman Detective

Chapter 1563 837: Making Overtures (2)

The surveillance team is reliable, even though the other party is very alert, they still managed to track them to a location, at a repair shop in Brooklyn.

Jimmy sat in front of the computer, looking at the photos transmitted by the surveillance team, and suddenly noticed a familiar car, or rather, a familiar badge, an F150 pickup with a shield badge on its multiple doors, it's the mark of an Intercontinental Hotel, Jimmy frowned, after a while, he picked up the phone to notify an agent team to go to the repair shop, get the photos from the surveillance team of the person who went to collect money, and bring him back under the guise of assisting the investigation, be careful not to create conflict.

The FBI's success rate in bringing people back under the guise of assisting the investigation is not high, especially when Jimmy already knows there's an issue there, they're sure to hit a snag, but the investigation has already progressed to this point, he can't just stop the surveillance team's mission, that would be too obvious, easy to leave himself open to criticism.

"Ring ring," Jimmy picked up the phone, the agent on the other end had already responded, and just as Jimmy expected, without a search warrant and arrest warrant, the agents hit a major obstacle.

"Wait for me on-site."

After replying, Jimmy stood up, took a suit from the side, put it on, and left the office directly.

The repair shop temporarily ceased operations, the entrance was blocked by two FBI agent cars and a van, preventing anyone from entering, when Jimmy arrived, three agents were standing at the door, staring at the workers inside the repair shop.

Jimmy waved his hand to let the agents stand aside, he went to the door, showed his badge, said, "FBI Supervisory Special Agent Jimmy Yang, I want to see your person in charge."

The fierce-looking repair workers inside exchanged glances, one of them turned around and entered the repair shop, a few minutes later, he came out and gestured to Jimmy, Jimmy looked at the agents on both sides "wait here," then pushed away the two workers blocking the path and walked in.

In the repair workshop, a middle-aged man was sitting on a chair drinking, the glass and the bottle were placed on a car's hood, he stood up when he saw Jimmy coming in, "Orellio."

"FBI Agent Jimmy Yang, nice to meet you."

The two shook hands, Orellio said, "So, agent, how can I help you?"

Jimmy took out a photo: "There's a bank robbery case that needs help from one of your guys, I need to invite him back to assist in the investigation."

Orellio: "Why?"

"The suspect robbed the bank to hand over the money to him, we have reason to suspect he is the mastermind behind the bank robbery."

"You have no reason to arrest anyone."

"That's why I said it's to invite him back to assist in the investigation, I know you have many ways to prevent us from taking him, but..."

Jimmy walked two steps to the side, came to a car, and knocked on the shield badge on the car door, "Loan sharking is only against New York State law, it has nothing to do with us FBI.

If the suspect accuses him of extortion and orchestrating this robbery, that's extortion and organized planning, that's a federal crime.

Going deeper, maybe it involves certain special businesses and interstate businesses, that's organized crime, the RICO Act, I believe some people should be quite familiar."

Orellio's previously calm face also turned tense, Jimmy purposely knocking on the car door was obviously not a simple subconscious action, that shield badge...

After a while, Orellio said softly, "Cooperating with federal agencies to handle cases is our duty, we will cooperate, just wait a moment."

After speaking, he left the repair workshop and walked towards the back office area.

Soon, two people came out, one glaring at Jimmy, the person seen in the photos before, Jimmy took handcuffs from behind his waist and put them on him, the entire process was very cooperative, just looking very unhappy.

"Thank you for your cooperation. Goodbye." said Jimmy, leading the person out.

The agents outside were also very surprised to see Jimmy successfully bring a person out, is the difference between people really this big?

No matter what, they've got the person now, time to go back for investigation.

In fact, the previous interrogation had already clarified, this person is just a loan shark, only due to being part of the gang, those people were too afraid, so they took the risk to rob the bank, and in the subsequent interrogation, the other party firmly denied ordering these people to commit the crime, at most, only loan sharking.

The case trial was almost done, but without Jimmy's confirmation, it hasn't been closed and transferred.

Finally, after work, Woody called Jimmy, saying someone wanted to see him at the bar.

Arriving at the bar, Jimmy sat directly at the bar counter, when Woody poured him a drink, he gestured to a man in a suit sitting in the corner of the bar, the other side smiled, raised his glass to indicate, then stood up and sat next to Jimmy, "Good evening, agent."

Jimmy drank his wine by himself: "I'm here, go ahead."

The man smiled and put down his glass: "Leslie Price, from Price Law Firm."

Jimmy nodded: "How can I help you?"

Price: "My client was invited by you today to assist in the investigation, hasn't returned yet, I think maybe there's some misunderstanding, before seeing the client, I hope to chat with Agent Yang first."

Jimmy: "Who hired you?"

Price smiled slightly: "Sorry, it's a business secret, I just want to know why my client was taken by you."

Jimmy glanced at Price, this guy should be a mob lawyer, "Since you're unwilling to say, let your boss tell me personally. Woody, I'm leaving now."

Putting down the glass, Jimmy got up and left the bar directly, ignoring Price calling out for him to wait from behind.

How impolite, the other party completely ignores him, randomly assigns a lawyer wanting to cozy up, although he didn't listen to the words behind, it's inevitably some threats and inducements, meaningless, and since they already know to find him at this bar, they won't be out of direct contact channels, in short communicating with this lawyer is a total waste of time.

The next day, Price came to the FBI, due to the reason of assisting the investigation, the person brought back was not arranged to go to the detention center but was staying in the temporary holding room at the FBI, after meeting the lawyer, Price immediately protested on the grounds that there is no evidence proving his client was involved in the bank robbery case, not a federal crime, after Jimmy nodded, they were sent to the NYPD, loan sharking is already a clear criminal act, FBI transferring to the NYPD is normal procedure.

That night, Jimmy met a middleman at the Gentlemen's Club, "Good evening, Mr. Yang. I'm Steve Wilson, bringing greetings from Mr. Vigo Trasov. Sorry, my client is not suitable to appear in such an occasion, can only replace him."

Jimmy: "Trasov Family, Russians, so that Orellio is his man?"

Wilson smiled and nodded, "I hope the events of the past few days haven't affected your good mood, Mr. Vigo Trasov specially prepared a small gift to congratulate Mr. Yang's promotion, please accept."

Wilson spoke while taking a wooden box from the side, tied with a ribbon, opened the box, inside is a bottle of vodka, "Victory Vodka from the 1967 Kaufman Winery, hope you like it."

Jimmy glanced at it, "Thank you, but I'm not familiar with Trasov's people, so just take it back first. Does he have anything else to say to me?"

Wilson: "No, please don't doubt Mr. Vigo Trasov's sincerity, just to congratulate you on taking charge of the Anti-Black Squad."

He paused for a moment, continued: "Manhattan isn't considered large, everyone will definitely have dealings in the future, hope not to harm the peace over this minor incident."
