The world of American TV series: Starting with the L.A. Patrol

The New York offices of NSA and DHS are only a few blocks away from Federal Plaza. Jubal contacted Dana Moger at NSA, and Jack called Hotchner at DHS.

He informed Hotchner of the details of the pufferfish toxin case and the recent collar bomb case at the Federal Building, and raised his suspicions from the perspective of the parties involved.

An hour later, Dana Moger and Rossi sent back a message, and the NSA confirmed Jack's guess. Through reverse verification, they found a flow of $3 million in funds.

After the money flowed out of a virtual currency trading center, it was split into countless small amounts of less than $100, and eventually entered several suspicious accounts. The NSA has reason to believe that these accounts are related to "Dark Jihad".

"So 'Dark Jihad' has money now, a huge sum of money that is enough to settle the affairs of more than a dozen suicide attackers. This is probably just the first advance payment, and the rest of the money will remain in the virtual currency account for the time being." Jack was a little speechless. Just because the other party paid the capital gains tax honestly, the NSA missed the money. Did the person in charge of this matter come from the IRS? Dana Moger also confirmed Jack's speculation on the phone, "The identity of the attacker shot dead by Emily is not in any known criminal database. We don't even know if he is a resident of the country or a stowaway. This is in line with the usual style of 'Dark Jihad'. In addition to recruiting believers online, they are also good at finding young believers from the families of local moderate believers and brainwashing them into suicide attackers." Schrödinger's moderation and extremism, Jack said he was used to it. Before detonating the bomb vest, you can never judge whether the other party is an extremist or a moderate. But Rossi raised a new question, "My old friend in the CIA told me that there are forces in Bolivia that are pushing for the extradition of Anthony Vargas to the federal government. If this information is true, it contradicts Jack's speculation. Why would they release this guy at this time by threatening a terrorist attack? This will only reduce the possibility of extradition to zero." "Is it possible that the Ministry of Justice will agree to Bolivia's extradition? No, is it the CIA that is involved?" Jack heard the implication of his words and found it incredible, but then he thought that this was also a routine operation of the CIA. After all, it was the FBI that was almost blown up before, and it didn't blow up, didn't it? Rossi's voice was a little ironic, "Yes, at least someone in the CIA agrees, and it is said that the other party may offer some conditions that people cannot refuse." Considering Rossi's personal connections, this news should be more credible. Jack hesitated and proposed another possibility, "Could it be that there is an internal conflict in the Durango drug cartel? Someone wants to take the top position, so he simply uses this method to completely eliminate the possibility of Anthony Vargas being extradited?" In the Xi'an Incident on the eve of the Anti-Japanese War, the bald man was detained, and a big man named He made a white oath and directly sent the air force to bomb. He said that he wanted to rescue the leader, but in fact he hoped to force Generals Zhang and Yang to make a desperate move and take the opportunity to get rid of the bald man. "It's not impossible." Rossi was also surprised by Jack's imagination. "But isn't this operation too complicated? I will discuss it with my old friends in the CIA.

However, it is said that the resistance to extradition is not within the federation, but is firmly opposed by the Bolivian presidential faction. Well, the political situation in this country is a bit chaotic, and a temporary government is currently in power."

It's really messy. Jack has only one comment on this. This is also the sadness of small Latin American countries. Bolivia has rich minerals and natural resources, but the country's economic pillar is coca cultivation.

This poor Latin American country has a chaotic political situation and various forces are entrenched. The reasons behind it are complicated, but in the final analysis, there is only one, the interference of external forces.

After hanging up the phone, Jack called Hotchner and Joyner who were still in DHS and reported the latest intelligence.

Issues such as extradition are temporarily put aside. It is easy to confirm that the Durango drug cartel is related to "Dark Jihad". The NSA monitors the activities of domestic terrorist organizations quite well. It is not a joke to find out that everyone is undercover in the end of a terrorist attack plan.

Now that the direction is determined, the specific executor behind the scenes should be found out soon.

Maybe the FBI and NYPD will hold another joint press conference before noon tomorrow. Before, they announced to the public that the murderer was shot dead purely to confuse the other party and use the same trick.

But now the truth has been revealed. DHS has sent a crisis support team to the eight areas where the attacks occurred to investigate suspicious situations and will continue to monitor and observe.

"OK, Joyner and I are about to leave DHS. They are working with NYPD and will set up multiple emergency command centers. We are ready and will definitely catch them."

Jack heard the ding-dong reminder sound of the elevator arriving at the floor from Hotchner's phone.

"Multiple?" He was a little confused.

"Yes, this is also the lesson learned by NYPD after 9/11. That day they fully realized how many eggs would be broken if they put them in one basket."

Hotchner was probably talking about the fact that when the Twin Towers collapsed, the emergency command center at that time was completely destroyed, and the entire rescue command level, including the New York Fire Department chief, was wiped out, leaving the subsequent accident rescue in a state of no command for a long time.

"OK, then you should go back to the headquarters as soon as possible. I will contact the others. As long as we get through tonight safely, it will be our turn to take action."

Jack hung up the phone and contacted Emily, Hannah, and Jiejie one by one. Then he breathed a sigh of relief. The man behind the scenes had surfaced, and the rest was only a matter of time.

Now we can only hope that the NSA will be more powerful and find out the true identity of the mastermind as soon as possible so that he can come and arrest people. It is now 9 o'clock in the evening, and theoretically we still have 15 hours.

All previous street attacks occurred at noon, which means that the time when the other party may launch an attack should also be at noon. That is when the streets of New York are crowded with tourists, and a bomb attack by the other party can cause the greatest casualties.

But Jack still felt a little uneasy in his heart. It was not surprising that the Durange drug cartel and the "Dark Jihad" merged, but the final motive was a little unclear.

It is normal for "Dark Jihad" to make any kind of noise, such as creating a terrorist attack that shocked the world and issuing a so-called manifesto, but the operation carried out by the Durange drug cartel is really puzzling.

Rossi's previous words have always been lingering in Jack's mind. If they want to save their leader, they are actually doing nothing now, or the best solution is to force the presidential faction to surrender in Bolivia and pass an extradition agreement.

Are you really afraid that Anthony Vargas will choke to death when he drinks water in prison by collaborating with terrorist organizations to carry out terrorist attacks in the United States?

If someone really wants to kill Anthony Vargas in this way as he suspected, it would be better to wait until he is extradited back to Bolivia to do it.

Whether it is sending gunmen or carrying out bomb attacks, it is much simpler. At least there is no need to spend nearly 10 million US dollars in funds and take the risk of confronting the "world police". Although the United States is declining day by day, it is still far from It’s not time to lift the knife.

Just as Jack continued to clean his gun and think wildly, there was a sudden explosion, and the alarms of the cars parked below the Federal Building were vibrated, and they all started to scream.

"Where did it explode?"

"What happened?"

Almost everyone in the combat center rushed to the windows and saw flames rising into the sky two streets east of the Federal Building, with thick black smoke rising into the sky under the light of the flames.
