This time, Jimmy didn't choose to shoulder everything himself; he instead split Mark and Julia into two teams to handle tasks separately. He already knew about the troubles this time.

Getting the search warrant from Ruiz's side was definitely not easy. He told me to only deal with this matter and not interfere in others, clearly indicating someone made a deal behind the scenes. Ruiz was under some pressure but couldn't just ignore his people being kidnapped. Someone decided to throw out some losses to let the FBI wrap up the case and avoid bigger problems.

Jimmy is temporarily unsure of who or what organization could make a deal with Ruiz's side in such a short time. Most of the dark-side organizations he deals with are connected to hotel business, and in fact, others find it hard to contact him because he handles homicide team matters, which don't relate to their business.

Jimmy isn't an unreasonable person. In this current situation, he naturally wouldn't continue to press Ruiz hard. That's why he divided the action into three groups and set strict targets for Mark and Julia. As for himself, given the warehouse location, if left to them, it could be troublesome if too much happened, so he's dealing with it to avoid hassle.

The Bronx is the area Jimmy likes the least. For ordinary people, it's just a place with relatively high incident rates — careful by day, avoid wandering at night, that's all.

However, for professionals like Jimmy, it's a disaster cluster site. Each time a case arose, they rarely obtained related surveillance info from public facilities because many people deliberately damaged monitoring in their activity area. Even nearby shops installed in-store surveillance rather than at entrances, as the setup speed couldn't match the damage rate, making it cost inefficient.

It's always a headache coming here, especially today. Jimmy drove with two support agents, heading to a small dock, which are common in the Bronx. These docks are involved in every crackdown but quickly resume operations, essentially attached to no traceable origin unless someone tips them off.

This time, it was George's precise address that got Jimmy here — a run-down riverside building, seemingly leftover from a factory or warehouse in the past. It's not big and lacks doors; from outside, it might appear like a place for homeless rats, but upon entering and turning a corner, one finds a small cleared space with a bed, a table, and two box-made chairs cushioned with foam boards.

Unfortunately, their luck was bad; the guard wasn't present. Jimmy looked around and told his companions, "Let's wait outside; they'll return for sure."

Joining in an operation with a prominent figure like Jimmy is a delightful surprise for the support agents without a fixed group, so naturally, there's no objection. The three left the building in two cars, parked distantly by the roadside — able to observe without drawing others' attention.

The only issue was Jimmy's car being a Suburban. Those familiar with the model might have a vague sense of anxiety, especially those in the underworld, possibly leading to detection. The other two agents drove Victoria Crowns, also standard police cars, but common enough not to be conspicuous.

After a while, Julia called first, "Yang, we've arrived. Five described Latin Americans, all taken back."

Jimmy asked, "Any resistance?"

Julia replied, "Two knocked down, no shots fired."

Jimmy said, "Good, bring them to the bureau; await news from Mark."

Everything went smoothly on Julia's side, putting Jimmy at ease.

Julia's faced too many incidents lately — first kidnapped, then tasked by Jimmy to investigate the perpetrators, even held hostage again. Jimmy genuinely feared she might lash out, but now it seems fine; her psychological resilience is decent. After this, she still needs a counseling session application, given she's not as tough as someone like him.

News from Mark came half an hour late, capturing fewer people — only three. However, his side went smoother since the hideout only had five people. Seeing FBI agents in bullet-proof vests carrying rifles, they surrendered directly. Mark took three back after issuing the search warrant.

For these people, no one would disclose their nicknames to the FBI, so identification requires bringing them back — aiming to handle things without unnecessary force.

Jimmy's side is the least smooth. They waited nearly two hours until dusk before two people on a motorcycle showed up at the building. They pushed it inside, letting Jimmy confirm they're the targets, but their faces remain unclear.
