Chapter 36 Joint Investigation

 In the interrogation room, Jack was alone, with his hands handcuffed on the iron table.

He is not worried about his situation at all.

Although he has not made any phone calls, the CIA must know his whereabouts. Don't forget, he is still under evaluation.

The door was pushed open, and several people came in this time, including the guy who just questioned him. The man in his fifties who led him should be the head of these people.

"Sanders, unlock his handcuffs."

Silver ordered his men. Behind him, a muscular man nearly 1.9 meters tall came up to unlock Jack's handcuffs.

"Mr. Cliff, you can leave now. Someone has greeted you. But before you leave, I want to give you a piece of advice.

Although you can be said to have saved the people in the entire carriage today, it is because of your narrow-mindedness that you put these people in a dangerous situation. I hope you can share any information you have, and think about it when you go back.

I think if you change your mind, you can call JJ and return the things to him."

Silver handed Jack a business card, and the latter rubbed his sore wrist, while the female agent named JJ returned the bag containing Jack's personal belongings.

Jack understood that the other party must have misunderstood. He thought that the CIA had obtained the information about the bomb in advance but refused to communicate with the FBI for the sake of credit. No wonder the other party would be angry. This was indeed the CIA's behavior, but he could not explain this aspect, and neither could the other party.

Will believe it.

"How are my nieces and nephews?" Jack is most concerned about Jeremy and Lilith.

"They are fine. The doctor said there is nothing wrong with their health. Their mother is currently taking care of them."

It was Silver who spoke. After the FBI arrived, the people in that car were controlled, the injured were sent to the hospital, and the remaining people needed to be interrogated. Only Jack was a special case. In view of the confessions of others, he was

Confined in solitary confinement.

"Do you have a pen and paper?"

Jack was relieved to hear that the children were okay, but he did not leave immediately. Instead, he asked for pen and paper.

Silver glanced at him and signaled to the subordinate next to him. The female agent brought a pen and paper and placed it in front of Jack.

Jack pondered for two seconds, and the pen in his hand began to move. A few strokes outlined the shape, and then he kept brushing the brush strokes, deepening the shadows, outlining the lines, once to the left, once to the right, and about a minute later, a male face appeared.

The sketch appears in front of everyone.

"This is the suspect's facial outline. I hope it is useful to you."

"Thank you very much."

Silver nodded, acknowledging Jack's attitude. The female agent took away the suspect's facial sketch. Although there was surveillance at the station, having a more detailed facial close-up would undoubtedly save them a lot of time.

"Head, ISIS just claimed they were responsible for the bombing at the station..."

When Jack was about to leave, one of Silver's men hurried over.

As he spoke, the subordinate picked up the remote control on the table and turned on the TV in the observation room. On the TV, a guy wearing a black hood was making a sworn statement, claiming that ISIS planned and implemented the attack in Santa Barbara this morning.

Train bombings, and this operation is intended to warn the United States that if they continue to call on international coalition forces to attack the "*** country", there will be endless explosions like this.

It turned out that this was the reason. Jack remembered the news he had seen a few days ago. Vienna had just been attacked by terrorists because it followed the United States in attacking the United States. Today it was the turn of the United States, and it was actually a TV series.

"ISIS bastards..."

Some people couldn't help but curse.

But at this moment, Silver's and Jack's cell phones rang at the same time.

The two of them looked at the caller ID, then walked away a few steps to answer the call.

"Well, I understand, okay, I will let him participate in the investigation..."

"Okay, I understand."

After answering the call, the two people came back and looked at each other a little strangely.

"You should also have received the news..."

"Yes."

Silver nodded, seeing the expressions of his subordinates who were still confused about the situation, and explained: "ISIS claimed responsibility for this incident, but the CIA believed that this was probably a cover-up.

Their system was breached by hackers some time ago and some data was lost. The CIA suspects that behind the explosion is actually a purge of agents by hostile forces, so Jack will participate in our investigation until the truth is revealed."

Silver's explanation finally answered everyone's doubts. The call Jack received was mostly the same. He had thought of this before, which coincided with the command center.

But he wanted more.

His first thought at the time was whether this was the work of the 'Stumbling Block'.

It is not unreasonable to think so.

When Conklin was in office, he launched a hunt for him, even at the expense of two Falcons. Although there are personnel changes at Stumbling Stone, there is no guarantee that it will not be a continuation of the previous actions.

On the other side, only 'Stumbling Block' can accurately know his position.

If you have both the ability and motivation, if you disguise this act as a terrorist attack, you won't be afraid even if someone tracks you down.

Although Danny didn't say anything in the phone call just now, he probably thought of this, so he asked Jack to personally participate in the investigation. Even if the "Stumbling Block" thief shouted to catch the thief, the FBI would never be able to wear the same pants as the "Stumbling Block", right?

.

"Okay, JJ, let him get to know everyone. The rest of the people, please get involved. Don't just focus on ISIS and that sketch, but also think about other directions."

Silver clapped his hands and walked out of the observation room. The situation mentioned by the CIA is not impossible. There has been a terrorist attack in London and a bombing at a train station. Three terrorist organizations claimed that they were responsible.

Moreover, sometimes it is not impossible for terrorist organizations to temporarily cooperate with the intelligence agencies of certain countries, and gain fame while taking the blame for them.

To put it bluntly, everything is profit.

The portrait provided by Jack is only one direction, and there is no evidence that that person must be the murderer, so the FBI's investigation direction must not be fixed at that one point.

JJ led Jack to the office area outside and introduced his colleagues to him.

"Head, the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives) responded that they have not detected any explosives flowing into California recently."

The person speaking was Eddie, a thin and small guy, but the leader of the support department.

The working model of the FBI is actually similar to that of the CIA, and the working team members are also divided into internal and external operations.

The muscular man Sanders, the ordinary Spike, the handsome Anthony and the only female agent JJ ​​all belong to the field and are responsible for front-line investigations.

Eddie and his support department are the back office, and their working location is basically in this office. They are responsible for coordinating resources, synchronizing intelligence, and providing all-round support.

At this time, JJ's phone also rang. He took two quick steps to pick it up. After a while, JJ looked up and said:

"Head, the investigation results of the forensics department and the bomb disposal team have also come out. Judging from the composition of the remaining explosives, the explosion was not a military explosive or an industrial explosive, but more like a homemade explosive..."

Explosives?

There are new clues in the case.

Silver thought for a moment and immediately made arrangements:

"Spike, ask your informant if he knows anyone who has or has sold similar explosives.

JJ, ask all police stations if there have been any similar cases of explosives or theft of raw materials recently.

Sanders, what happened to the suspect's portrait?"

"The facial features are being compared with the criminal database, which is expected to take 6 hours. In addition, the station video and facial sketches have been sent to various police stations, hoping that there will be good news."

Silver nodded. The FBI has the most comprehensive criminal profile database in the United States and even the world. If the suspect is a repeat offender, it is easy to locate his identity.

Thinking of something, Silver turned around and said: "Eddie, remember to pay attention to the dark web, especially Alpha Bay, where the opponent's explosives may come from."

"Understood."

"Anthony, screen the list of candidates in California who are capable of making bombs."

"Okay, head."

The work was arranged in an orderly manner, and the team members performed their duties.
