Jimmy: "Who are the Heisen Brothers? Where are they?"
Sundew: "I don't know them, I just know of them. I've never seen them, nor do I know the location. I just arranged for people to be taken to a parking lot at Gravesend Bay, next to the home improvement market, and then their people would take the vehicle away."
Jimmy: "Who are the people over there?"
Sundew: "The driver, hired locally."
Just as he was about to continue asking, there was a loud commotion outside. Jimmy looked up and saw that the club's front desk was crowded with many people, four of whom were wearing wide-brimmed hats. It was hard to hear what was being said outside from the locker room. Jimmy thought for a moment and decided not to continue questioning. He cursed, then reached out to pull Sundew up, leading him to sit beside Agent Lars on the bench.
Soon, an agent walked over, "Agent Lars, the NYPD is at the door."
Lars glanced at Jimmy, "I'll go out and take a look."
The agent stayed with Jimmy as Lars went outside. Jimmy watched as Lars showed his credentials to the people outside and said something. Things soon quieted down, but the police didn't leave; instead, they worked with Lars and his team, temporarily keeping watch at the door.
Lars returned to the locker room, motioning with her finger for Jimmy to come over: "Jimmy, any results?"
Jimmy nodded: "Julia and the others were taken to a parking lot at Gravesend Bay, where they were handed over to the Heisen Brothers. They will be sent to Colombia early tomorrow morning. But Sundew doesn't know the Heisen Brothers, and I've never heard of such an organization. We don't have much time left, so you handle their further questioning. I need to look for clues.
By the way, the other person is the driver. He took Julia and them to the parking lot, question him about the time and location, I'm heading out now."
Lars nodded: "Okay, but you need to notify me about the actions afterward, I'll be joining you."
Jimmy: "No problem. Check around here as well, see if there are any other accomplices, I don't have time to waste on these matters."
Lars: "Go ahead."
Jimmy straightened his suit, left the gym, and sat in his car, dialing Ruiz's phone, "Ruiz, do you have any impression of someone or an organization named the Heisen Brothers here in Brooklyn?"
Ruiz: "Wait, let me think... No, you should contact David, have him check if there's any recent data updated. How's your investigation going?"
Jimmy: "OK, I'll go find David. We've already found the people transporting Julia and the others. They were taken to a parking lot at Gravesend Bay, where the Heisen Brothers took over. Now the key is to find them. Also, Sundew mentioned they'll be sent to Colombia tomorrow morning; we don't have much time."
Ruiz: "Go ahead, we'll talk about the rest later. Finding the people is the most important task."
Jimmy hung up on Ruiz and then dialed David's number: "David, it's an emergency, help investigate if there's anyone or an organization named the Heisen Brothers here in Brooklyn, it's very urgent."
David was surprised to hear Jimmy so anxious: "Slow down, slow down, what's happened?"
Jimmy: "Julia Lee from our team and her friend have been kidnapped. They're now in the hands of the Heisen Brothers, who are arranging their transport. The last known location was a parking lot at Gravesend Bay; these Heisen Brothers are likely in Brooklyn."
David: "Our people?"
Jimmy: "Yes, people from my team."
David: "Got it, give me some time, I'll get someone to check immediately."
Jimmy: "Thanks, it's urgent, have others speed it up."
David: "Alright, wait for my call."
Jimmy dialed the command center while also starting the car to leave the club, heading to the bay.
Jimmy knew the home improvement market Sundew mentioned but wasn't clear on the exact location. However, it would be easy to find once he got near the bay, and the command center could locate it too.
Jimmy: "Command center, investigate a home improvement market at Gravesend Bay. I need to know its location, the location of the parking lot, and check the nearby surveillance records. I'll provide the license plate number later, trace its direction."
Command Center: "Understood."
This kidnapping case hasn't been resolved, so the command center naturally wouldn't stop monitoring it. Although their leaders were not directly overseeing it, arranging tasks over the phone was also feasible.
After hanging up, Jimmy finally arranged everything. Now he could only hope that by the time he got to the bay, all the clues would be available, allowing them to directly proceed with follow-up investigations.
Jimmy's urgency this time was mainly because it involved his people. If it were another case, he might have investigated according to regulations step by step. He would have also tried to avoid using illegal methods to gather clues to not get caught by the OPR and the Federation Prosecutor's office. Whether they caught up or not would be up to luck.
But now it was his people involved, his team members to be exact. If he couldn't solve it, his confidence would be shaken in the coming days. So this time he pursued one target with all his might, from the harsh interrogation at the office to violent coercion in the locker room, to immediately find clues and rescue the two people as quickly as possible. Any complaints or issues could be dealt with later; right now, there was no time to think about them.
Julia and Mark have always been diligent and responsible; Jimmy once thought about using resources to train these two, but after communicating with Kevin, he gave up on the plan, opting for the regular process to let them gain experience gradually. During this time, Jimmy was also very satisfied with them.
Now Mark's injured, Julia's kidnapped, and the Homicide Team is indeed a problematic group. It's like they're cursed; nobody in the Homicide Team can live a peaceful life.
Jimmy was almost at the bay when he received a call. Agent Lars had already obtained the vehicle's make and license plate number, and the command center had started investigating past surveillance footage, striving to quickly find the vehicle's clues.
Jimmy arrived at the parking lot, turned off the police lights and sirens, and drove slowly around the parking lot twice, observing license plates and switching between normal vision and Heart Eye Vision to look inside the cars.
This was a method akin to doing what one can while leaving the rest to fate. The driver delivered the people at 10:30 in the morning, and it had been a few hours, almost half a day since then. They wouldn't possibly leave the people in the car in the parking lot. With the weather in June in an open parking lot, the temperature inside the car would be very high, and anyone inside would be suffocated or overheated to death.
The command center relayed the latest news. They successfully tracked the car the driver used—it left the parking lot and headed towards the nearby Gravesend Water Sports Center, and has not emerged since.
The water sports center wasn't far away. Jimmy left the parking lot and quickly arrived outside the water sports center. Road surveillance only monitored up to this point, and the command center's results were also limited to here. Whether the car exited from elsewhere required further investigation, which wasn't an easy task.
Jimmy couldn't check inside, as the area was too vast. If he went in alone, he likely wouldn't find the car before he was discovered. The best approach was to wait for others to join him, block the roads, and have them investigate inside.
Agent Lars once again came to assist. She had taken Sundew and the other two back to the office. After receiving orders from the command center, she directly brought the support agents over. A dozen or so people and several cars arrived beside Jimmy. Jimmy had already drawn a simple map of the roads, coordinating others to set up blockades as he and Agent Lars led a small group down the paths to the water sports center. There were one large and two small parking areas. The people they brought were sufficient for blockading and checking.
