American Detective: Starting as a Rookie Cop in an American TV Show

Chapter 1316 Night Shadow Operation
Before "HR" was completely cleaned up, Detective Stiles was destined to remain missing. This was the result of discussions between Director Reagan, the FBI and the two "POIs".

POI is the code name Jack gave to the current duo of Finch and Reese, which naturally comes from the abbreviation of "Person of Interest", the English name of "Person of Interest".

The literal translation of the original drama's title is "person of interest", which of course also means "suspect". It is quite appropriate to use it to refer to the identities of the people corresponding to the numbers given by the "machine". Of course, it can also be used as a code name for the team that deals with such incidents.

Although the "irrelevant numbers" given by the "machine" do not appear every day, there are at least four or five in a week.

Even if part of it can be solved with a simple investigation and some is distributed to the wanted criminals team, it will be very hard for Finch and Reese to handle the rest.

The manpower has to be expanded sooner or later, otherwise the FBI will have to help solve those numbers, and the relative independence that Finch expects will no longer exist. Therefore, it seems that there is no problem for Jack to give the team a code name in advance.

Just as Reese and Detective Bean drove to Oyster Bay to bury the body, Jack changed into a black coat and black suit and appeared outside a church in Newburgh.

Anna was also wearing a long black trench coat, a dark sweater underneath, and a thin black veil on her head.

However, the expressions of the two men at this moment did not look like they were here to attend a funeral. Rather, it looked like a pretty boy was hooking up with a pretty widow who had just inherited a million-dollar inheritance and was planning to elope.

For Anna, this is a bit like a part of the PLAY. After all, it's easy to get tired of wearing stewardess uniforms.

The funeral was over at this time and people were walking out of the church one after another. The curves of the two guys' mouths were really hard to suppress, which formed a sharp contrast with the big bald guy and his girlfriend who were walking in front with sad expressions.

"How did you guess that Marvin was not dead? I didn't tell you in advance." Anna asked in a low voice.

"Because someone asked me not long ago about the precautions of using pufferfish toxin to fake death." Jack shrugged and answered in a low voice.

He also didn't expect that Marvin would call him directly to ask such a question, even though he had left him his private number out of courtesy when they parted. After all, they had been through hardships together.

According to Marvin, a half-forensic doctor, also known as a forensic doctor, should know better how to make a living person look like a dead person.

It can be seen that the pufferfish toxin is very effective. Just now at the funeral, Frank secretly pierced the back of Marvin's hand with a pin and it was not discovered. He believed it and even choked up and gave a heartfelt eulogy afterwards.

This also made the two people who knew the inside story laugh so hard that their stomachs almost cramped.

Hearing Jack say this, Anna couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Well, no wonder he asked me to help him arrange the funeral. It turns out he just wanted to hide it from Mr. Moses. Are these old friends always so unique in their way of joking?"

"That's not the case. What he really wants to hide from is the CIA and the like." As Jack spoke, his eyes had already noticed two Subaru vehicles with government license plates parked in the driveway.

At the same time, Frank Moses and Sarah Ross, who were not far away from the two men, stopped and discussed something in a low voice.

"We need to move as soon as possible, preferably to Canada."

"Why?" Sarah looked puzzled.

"I have a small farm there. It's in a very advantageous location with a good view of the surroundings, just like the one Jack has in Los Angeles. It's suitable for ambushing attackers." The bald man said as a matter of course, "You can graze there and farm. It will be fun."

"Wait." Sarah hurriedly stopped him from continuing, "Dear, you should know that I once saw a piece of advice that it is best not to make important decisions that will change the trajectory of your life immediately after losing a close friend."

The bald man's expression was extremely serious. "Whoever killed Marvin, if he could do this, he can definitely kill me, you, and maybe Jack too."

The two were discussing so seriously that they didn't even notice the obviously strange expressions on Jack and Anna's faces, or the group of guys in black coats and black suits who were getting out of the two Saabs.

"Frank, you're in trouble." Jack warned with a light cough.

The bald guy looked up and realized that the person who came was not friendly. Apart from those who came to attend the funeral, the only people dressed like this were probably agents or secret agents from the federal department.

Frank whispered to Sarah to follow Jack and the others, and he turned around to greet the newcomers, "Who are you?"

"Mr. Moses, NSA has a few questions for you." The leading guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes showed his ID.

Jack couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard these words from afar. The National Security Agency is usually only responsible for collecting intelligence, and there are very few agents working outside. I didn't expect to see a living one today.

Frank Moses was focusing on the two Suburbans. Although the windows were covered with black film and he couldn't see clearly inside, the parking angles gave him a sense of crossfire.

"Do we need to bring a sniper with us to ask questions?"

The man with thick eyebrows and big eyes showed the handcuffs as if it was a matter of course, "Because we believe that there is a reason why you were listed as an 'extremely dangerous retiree', right?"

Frank looked back at Jack, who still had a smile on his face, nodded slightly, then calmly stretched out his hands, allowing the other party to handcuff him and take him to the Subaru.

"Jack, is Frank okay?" Sarah subconsciously hugged Jack's arm, her eyes full of worry.

Jack thought that the one in trouble might not be NAS, so after comforting him with a few words, he took out his cell phone and called his cheap father-in-law - crossed out - Harry Tasker, the current head of the "Omega" department.

"I think I know what's going on. It's somewhat related to the matter you asked me to investigate." Harry seemed to have been waiting for Jack's call for a long time.

"About a week ago, a secret document suddenly appeared on the Internet, revealing a secret operation planned against the Soviet Union at the height of the Cold War, code-named 'Night Shadow'."

"I've heard about this news. The NSA first tried to find Marvin Boggs, and scared him so much that he faked his death and wanted to hide. Now they're looking for Frank Moses. What does this have to do with these two?"

Jack waved to the two ladies beside him, motioning them to follow him, and walked towards the cemetery behind the church while continuing to talk on the phone.

Harry continued, "Originally, this document appeared on the Internet for less than 10 minutes before it was cleaned up by the NSA, but it was dug up again by WikiLeaks not long ago. Now the whole world wants to know what the UK and the US did to Moscow back then."
