Chapter 486 Holidays and Accidents
Braxton said that the harvest was average, but it depends on who he compared with. This small amount of money is indeed not as much as a fraction of the collection in Chris's trailer, and under Jack's insistence that the three of them should be divided equally, it was divided among the three. He only has a little over $3 million on his head.
After Chris launders the money through his channels, and excluding the tribute (tax payment) to the IRS that can never be avoided, the final amount that will reach Jack's hands may be less than $3 million.
At this point, Chris still needs to help Jack find a reasonable and legal reason for his income, otherwise he will directly put it into his account. Maybe one day he will be visited by the OPR (Office of Professional Responsibility, Office of Professional Responsibility) agent within the FBI. coming.
As for the jewelry, Jack's suggestion is to simply find a reliable channel to dismantle all the gems on them and make new ones. Anyway, he has many girls, so he doesn't have to worry about giving them away. Neither of the Wolf brothers are single now. Yes, it’s all useful.
Braxton said that he had quite a few contacts in Austria and he would handle these matters.
After the operation, Matt temporarily disbanded the operation team and gave everyone a half-month vacation. Now Jack can't go back to the BAU and can only enjoy the vacation in peace.
Their next target is tentatively decided to be the Matamoros Gang and the Reyes Group, but the specific plan has not yet been confirmed. The CIA will need some time to collect and organize specific intelligence, and then formulate a specific action plan.
Chris also gave Jack a surprise. He quietly bought the small farm next door that was for sale and put it in Hannah's name.
After a year and a half, or simply waiting for the two of them to get married, the farm can be transferred to Jack in a legitimate and legitimate manner. As the saying goes, misfortune depends on blessings, and misfortune lies behind. Although someone's home was bombed, there will be no damage within the walls. He repaired the wall and somehow became a landowner in the United States.
Although this landowner is really small, with an area of only 10 acres, or about 0.04 square kilometers, Jack is quite satisfied and does not expect to make money from this.
Thousands of years of civilization have long engraved the attachment to the land in the hearts of every Serisian. They think that one day when they are old, they can lie leisurely in a deck chair under the eaves and look at their grandchildren. When the elders were playing and having fun on the farm, Jack felt inexplicably more at ease.
Of course, the premise is that he can deal with his beauties first. Thinking of Hannah and Jiejie's meaningful glances at each other every time they meet, Jie feels a little headache.
Fortunately, Jane Banner is a career-minded girl. Although she cannot be said to be just greedy for his body, she has no idea of competing for a job. In other words, when she first met Jiejie, she gave up her thoughts on this aspect. .
It seems that this is the normal view of love among big girls in America. Hannah and Jiejie are both "non-mainstream", so it must be like this.
In the next few days, Jack worked hard to implement the British Empire's continental balance of power policy. Today, he made some delicious food for Hannah and practiced fighting with her. Tomorrow, he and Jiejie went out to do some shopping. In the evening, they sat on the sofa and watched TV together. .
It would be fun to find time to talk to Zoe about politics and discuss academic issues with teacher Maureen.
A week passed leisurely like this. Jack lay in a daze on his clean bed early in the morning. When he was thinking about how to design his future home on that farm, the phone suddenly rang. It was Hannah.
"Stella just called me and said that his father was injured."
Jack's mind was spinning for a long time, and then he remembered that Stella was the daughter of Texas Ranger Cordell Walker, "How was Walker injured? What happened?"
When he was planning his trip to Mexico, he was worried that if something unexpected happened, he would be stuck in an unfamiliar Mexico and would need to return to the United States through abnormal means, so he contacted Walker in advance through Hannah.
Walker, who was familiar with the border situation, planned several routes for him, and even took the initiative to apply to be transferred to the Mounted Police Reconnaissance Team for a period of time in order to facilitate the response. He was quite enthusiastic.
When his family was in danger at the border (Chapter 155), Jack and Hannah helped a lot. This Texas man always remembered this kindness.
This is also the reason why Jack met Walker in El Paso before. It was not a coincidence.
"The details are still unclear. I only know that there was an explosion while tracking smugglers at the border. Two CBP (Federal Border Patrol Police) officers were killed on the spot. Walker was just sent to the hospital in Dallas." Hannah's voice was a little loud. anxious.
Jack knew the reason why Hannah called him. She was busy with a big case recently. He came to see her two days ago and finally found time to spend a day with him. Obviously, he couldn't rush to Texas immediately this time.
"Don't worry, I'll fly to Dallas right now. I'll take care of everything."
Jack stood up and packed his things. He understood Hannah's mood very well at the moment. In addition to the Anderson family here in Los Angeles, the Walker family in Texas also existed like family members.
What's more, the reason why Walker's accident happened was causally related to him. Jack also felt that it had something to do with him. If it weren't for his incident, Walker wouldn't have taken the initiative to apply to be transferred to the Mounted Police Reconnaissance Team.
Saying goodbye to Jiejie in a hurry, Jack bought the nearest plane ticket and met the Walker family at Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas that afternoon.
This hospital is a famous biomedical research center in the United States and one of the best hospitals in Texas.
Fortunately, Walker was further away from the center of the explosion than the two CBP police officers who unfortunately died in the line of duty, and the shock wave did not directly harm him.
But unfortunately, a flying stone happened to hit his head. In addition to opening a large gash, it also caused a certain degree of concussion.
Jack met Walker's former partner and current superior at the hospital, Captain Larry James of the Austin Mounted Police Office. After Jack showed his FBI badge, the bald man briefly introduced the whole story to him.
Early yesterday morning, Walker cooperated with a team of CBP police officers to track a group of illegal immigrants near Laredo. This was not a particularly dangerous operation.
Helicopters with infrared radars were tracking in the sky, and federal police on the ground cooperated with state police to encircle and outflank them. Under normal circumstances, these illegal immigrants would not resist too fiercely.
Because even if they are sent to a detention center, under what the current blond president calls the most severe "restrictive YM policy", only a very small number of people will be sent back. Most people will win as long as they cross the border.
At most, after a few more years, after surviving the term of the current blond president, some policies will definitely change.
However, something went wrong during this operation. A bearded man among the stowaways fled. When he was forced to the edge of a cliff, he knelt down and prayed before detonating his portable weapon. Carrying explosives.
The man's body was not found on the spot, and Walker and a group of police officers who were about to arrest him were also knocked to the ground by the shock wave of the explosion. Two of the CBP police officers died on the spot.
"The specific identity of this person is still under investigation. The local FBI office has taken over the case." Captain Larry James looked a little unhappy. In his opinion, this case involves his own police officers, so naturally it should be handled by the Texas police. Mounties are in charge.
However, his arm could not twist his thigh, and two more federal police officers died in the line of duty. No matter how reluctant he was, he had no choice but to obey his superiors' orders and hand over the case.
Knowing that Walker was fine, Jack finally felt relieved. He was still lying in the ICU and he couldn't visit him, so he could only say goodbye temporarily.
Anyway, as long as he is here, his life is not in danger, and his arms and legs are intact, everything will be fine. When Walker comes out of the ICU, there will be plenty of opportunities to meet him.
He planned to go to the FBI office in Dallas tomorrow to inquire about the situation, maybe it could have something to do with his current actions.
This time he came out in a hurry. Except for a Glock pistol, Jack didn't even bring toiletries. After saying goodbye to the Walker family, he drove the Camry rented from the airport and planned to find a large supermarket to buy an electric toothbrush. He is used to using this thing, but he is really not used to an ordinary toothbrush.
He drove to Kroger Supermarket, which was the largest local department store he found on the map. This chain brand is also the second (?) supermarket chain in the United States, and there is a Four Seasons supermarket nearby that he planned to stay at tonight. hotel.
After buying an electric toothbrush, Jack bought two pounds of American pecans as snacks. If these pecans are shipped to Seris, they will be renamed pecans. They are second only to Queensland chestnuts among the types of nuts he likes. .
The other name of Queensland chestnut in Seris is macadamia nut. This thing is also called Australian walnut. Its origin is actually Australia.
After Jack paid, he left the supermarket and walked to the parking lot. He took out his mobile phone and checked the time. He estimated that Hannah should be home by now. He was about to call her when he looked up and saw four bearded men passing by him. Then he passed by and walked into the supermarket behind him.
Feeling that something was not right, Jack glanced back subconsciously. These four people looked menacing, as if they were determined to rob them. How could they look like they were determined to rob?
The Kroger supermarket behind you is not a small street store. Who would be so stupid as to come and rob a large chain supermarket like this? Even a little guy who plans to buy some extra money for zero yuan can't put on a show. It looks like you are sacrificing your life for righteousness, right?
Fuck, sacrifice your life for righteousness!
The sense of crisis suddenly came, and in the flash of lightning, Jack turned around in shock. There was a loud bang, the glass doors of the supermarket were shattered, and screams were heard everywhere.
Jack subconsciously squatted on the spot and pulled up his coat to block the broken glass coming from the laser. Just as he was about to get up, there was another loud bang, followed by a third one.
The screams were directly silenced by the successive explosions. The smoke alarm detected the smoke and the fire alarm sounded automatically. The surviving customers ignored the screams and looked for corners where they thought they were safe to hide. Some simply lay down on the ground. Don't dare to move.
