The Blacklist

Chapter 103: Animal Protector in Disguise

When they returned to the post office, Cooper hadn't figured out what to do. Carrie didn't rush him. She just told him to let her know if he needed help and she would always be there.

The two returned to the command hall of SER. Elizabeth had just returned and said that Reddington took her to meet Jeff Pearl, a wealthy man dedicated to animal protection, and got a clue: Concord Import Company. The company nominally engaged in meat products, but in fact it was engaged in the smuggling trade of game and endangered animals, involving a huge amount of money.

When Carrie heard this, he went back upstairs. This was enough information for him.

When he arrived at SLR, he asked Korisa to check the financial situation of this Jeff Pearl...

In the afternoon, Elizabeth and Nawabi cooperated and led the action team to bring back the owner of Concorde Company, Zhong Li Emerson, but this man was very stubborn and refused to say anything.

At this time, SER received a message from the headquarters: another skinned body was found on the coast of Hokkaido, Japan. The person was also a poacher, but he disappeared in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Aram simulated data from tides and ocean currents and calculated that the two skinned bodies were dumped in the coastal area of ​​Sitka, Alaska.

Cooper asked Donald and Mira to go to Alaska to investigate, and asked Elizabeth and Nawabi to continue interrogating Emerson. But before leaving get off work, Emerson's lawyer bailed him out through the District Attorney's Office! ——
As soon as he got to work the next day, SER received news that Emerson, who was released on bail yesterday afternoon, had disappeared!
Cooper felt something was wrong, so he called Carrie down and asked for his opinion.

When Carrie heard that Donald and Mira went to Alaska, she asked them to contact them immediately. After confirming their safety, she asked them to stay in the local FBI branch and wait for new intelligence before taking any action.

Then, Carrie asked, "How can we safely and quickly get the two kidnapped people to Alaska from Paris, France and Brazil to Paul?"

"Private jet." Several people present, including Cooper, said in unison.

Kerry nodded and said, "Aram, check if there were any private jets taking off from the area after the two poachers disappeared... Oh, yes, there's also the guy who disappeared last night."

"Understood." Alam agreed and immediately got busy. Soon, he reported, "Lee, you are right. Shortly after the two poachers disappeared, a private plane took off from the local airport. Last night, another private plane took off from an airport in Washington, and all three private planes were of the same model."

"Check who these three planes belong to?" Carrie nodded.

"Eh? Although these three planes belong to three companies registered in different places, their parent companies are all the same!" Aram found out the key information. "This parent company is called Wendigo LLC, and this company owns a property in Sitka, Alaska!"

Kerry said, "Aram, you continue to investigate this company. Harold, give Tang an order to have him and Mira borrow an action team from the local FBI branch to raid the property."

Cooper immediately agreed and called Donald personally to give the order.

While he was on the phone, Carrie indicated that she had something else to do and left SER.

After returning to the office, Carrie called Reddington, "Old Ray, I heard that you are quite familiar with Jeff Pearl. Give him a call to confirm his address. We are going to look for him!" "What do you mean?" Reddington was a little puzzled.

"Aram has found out that the two skinned guys were thrown into the sea from Sitka, Alaska, and the two private planes that sent them there from where they disappeared were both owned by the Wendigo Company!" Carrie said, "Old Lei, what can you think of?"

"I understand." Reddington's voice was a little cold. "I'll tell you right away when you find where he is." Then he hung up the phone.

Fifteen minutes later, Carrie took Gina downstairs, got into Reddington's limousine, and drove to an estate outside Baltimore.

In the car, Reddington said with a depressed mood: "Richard, you know, I am very angry now. This damn Jeff actually lied to me for so long! I donated to his animal protection foundation for many years, but I didn't expect that he was the bastard Mombasa Cartel!"

"Okay, don't be angry, it's not too late now!" Kerry comforted him, "Old Lei, you should think like this: Jeff is really good, worthy of being the behind-the-scenes manipulator of the Mombasa Group, but he still has to fall into my hands! So, I am the most powerful!"

Dembe and Gina in the front row were amused by this, but Reddington rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "Okay, I admit that your comfort is very powerful and makes me feel much better!"

Now, there was even more laughter in the car, and finally Reddington also laughed.
-
Two hours later, Carrie and Reddington found Jeff Pearl in the study of the manor. The two bodyguards outside had been subdued and controlled by Dembe and Gina.

Reddington's goal is very clear, which is the list of members and companies of the Mombasa Group in Jeff's hands, and he threatens Jeff with the "Skinners" in Alaska. Jeff knows that the situation is hopeless and can only hand over a USB flash drive he carries with him.

Carrie demanded that he hand over the stolen money. At gunpoint, Jeff revealed three accounts with more than 50 million U.S. dollars in them.

Reddington knew the scale and profits of the Mombasa Group, and of course he didn't believe that there was only that much money. But in the next second, he saw Carrie kill Jeff with two shots without hesitation!
"Why?" Reddington was very puzzled.

"Three reasons. First, this scumbag deserves to die!" Carrie said. "Second, this money is enough for me to get what I want. Third, you have been here, you can't let him tell anyone. Okay, you and Dumby should go. Remember to take those two bodyguards with you."

"What a good friend!" Reddington was a little moved. "Then I'll leave first!" After saying that, he turned and walked out.

Carrie took out his cell phone and called SLR first, asking for a task force to come here; then he called Cooper and said that he had found the Mombasa Cartel, but that the cartel had resisted with force and had been shot dead, so he asked SER to send an evidence search team to accompany the SLR task force.

The experienced Gina arranged the scene accordingly. The dead Jeff held a pistol in his hand and fired a bullet, hitting the place where Carrie was standing before...

In the two hours before the support personnel arrived, the two of them went around the manor and collected a lot of good things, all for themselves! In the process, it was mainly Kerry who took the things, and Gina was responsible for the aftermath. The two cooperated well and were in perfect harmony.
