The Blacklist

Chapter 130: The assassin was killed and the case was closed
Time passed quickly, and two hours passed in the blink of an eye. At nine o'clock, the president began to meet with random journalists, giving each reporter 10 minutes to answer their questions...

During this process, no one knew what Gibbs was busy with. Even Katie received the director's order to maintain order in the interview and borrowed Gina and Elizabeth. However, Carrie still sat in that position and refused to move!
Kerry half-closed his eyes, watching as one reporter after another was arranged by the Secret Service agents to enter the President's room, come out ten minutes later, and be replaced by another...

It was almost ten o'clock and the fifth reporter was about to come out when there was a commotion in the middle cabin behind him, as if someone had fainted!

He immediately became alert, but there was no change on the surface, as if he had fallen asleep.

A moment later, a middle-aged man in a suit walked over quickly, walked around the first row of seats, and walked into the aisle. Major Kerry, who was guarding the door of the President's room not far away, immediately stood up and gestured, "Hey! Buddy, the previous reporter's interview hasn't ended yet, you need to wait a while!"

"Oh, really? But I don't want to wait any longer!" As he said this, the middle-aged man put on his suit and pulled out an MP5 submachine gun from his clothes with his right hand. Just as he was about to raise it, he fell to the ground with two gunshots and his back of the head was blown open!

Major Kerry in front stood there, looked at the blood splattered not far from his feet, then raised his head to look at Kerry who appeared at the other end of the corridor. Seeing that the other party calmly put down his right hand holding the gun, he figured out the whole thing, raised his hand, clenched his fist and gave a thumbs up!

When Kerry saw that Kerry was not scared, he thought that this guy was really good. He gave him a thumbs up and praised him for his calmness!

When the gunshots rang out, the first people to run over were naturally the Secret Service agents. As soon as they saw the situation at the scene, they understood what was going on and broke out in cold sweats.

Then, the director of the Secret Service rushed over, turned around and looked at Carrie who was holding his gun upside down and handed it to him, reached out and pushed the gun back, and said softly, "Thank you, Director Carrie."

"You're welcome. Our goals are the same, for this country." Carrie smiled, but in her heart she was thinking: We must adhere to "political correctness", otherwise it will be difficult to make money in this world!

After the subsequent investigation, the truth of the incident was clarified.

Al-Qaeda had been planning the attack on Air Force One several years ago. What's funny is that the idea for this plan came from a Hollywood movie plot.

The first step is to investigate the president, the security arrangements and entourage, Air Force One and the backup aircraft, etc.;
The second step was to discover that the nuclear entourage officers traditionally had their uniforms cleaned and ironed at the dry cleaner on 19th Street. Al-Qaeda had sent people to buy the store several years ago, and they were not taking any action to prepare.

Not long ago, Al-Qaeda decided to take action and poisoned the uniform of Major Kerry, the nuclear weapons attaché, but he was unexpectedly on leave due to a cold, so they could only poison the uniform of Lieutenant Colonel Trump, who was on backup duty. The purpose was not to kill people, but to trigger the security procedure for the protection of the president - after an emergency occurs on Air Force One, the president and his main entourage need to switch to a backup plane;

The backup machine is relatively old, and the electronic equipment in various places on the plane is not as good as the original host, especially the weapons cabinet in the middle cabin corridor, which still uses ordinary locks.

During today's flight, a reporter who had been with Al Qaeda for several years took advantage of the chaos caused by the poisoning of another reporter in the middle cabin, opened the weapons cabinet with a prepared key, took out a fully ammunition MP5 submachine gun, and prepared to go directly to the president's room to assassinate... In the handling of this case, no matter from which aspect, the SER headed by Kerry, or the FBI, is absolutely the first to deserve the credit. Not only did they kill the terrorists and avoid a direct assassination of the president, they also saved Major Kerry, the nuclear weapons officer who was almost hit. This made the Secret Service and the Navy Department very grateful!

Compared to before, the NCIS Gibbs team, which had previously taken the lead in investigating the case, has been somewhat overshadowed.

After the matter was clarified and dealt with, Agent Katie Todd of the Secret Service reported her relationship with Major Kerry to the director and tendered her resignation. Although the director felt a little regretful, he still accepted it because of work regulations.

At that time, Gibbs tried to recruit Katie, but was rejected!

Katie finds Carrie and expresses her desire to join SLR, and her lover Chris also strongly supports her.

After arriving in Washington, Kerry, Gina, and Elizabeth took a car home. In the car, they checked the system display: "Host completed the trigger mission 33, killed the al-Qaeda killer, and was rewarded with 1.4 crime-killing points and recovered 213 million criminal funds; saved Kerry's life and was rewarded with intermediate nuclear weapon control skills."

Hey, what is the use of this skill? Hmm, wait, it seems to be really useful. He remembered that he got six suitcases before! Yeah! This is really useful, but it just gives him this skill. He doesn't expect to really use it. If he really uses it, it is estimated that both the enemy and us will not end well!

On the way, Elizabeth couldn't help but ask, "Lee, how did you know that the assassins from that base would go to assassinate the president? And how could you wait there in advance and shoot them dead!"

"I don't know!" Carrie said, "I just think that no matter who is behind this case, their purpose must be to target the president - because the usual maintenance and inspection of Air Force One is very strict, and it is difficult to install bombs on it. That must be directly aimed at the president! So, I just have to guard the entrance, no matter who wants to go through, they have to pass through my gun..."

"Why didn't you tell us in advance? Gina and I had to go to help Katie in vain and spend more than two hours maintaining order!" Elizabeth said indignantly, while Gina, who was driving, just smiled and said nothing.

"Hey, Liz, it was Katie who dragged you there directly. I didn't agree." Carrie explained, "You didn't even ask for my opinion. You just dragged Gina to follow Katie. How can you blame me?"

"Humph, it's all your fault!" Elizabeth said unreasonably, "You clearly had everything planned out, but you didn't tell Gina and me, and you watched us do useless work without stopping us. You did it on purpose!"

Puff! Kerry was speechless and vomited blood, sighing in his heart: Only villains and women are difficult to raise. If they are close, they will be disrespectful, and if they are far away, they will complain. The ancients were not deceiving me!

Gina, who was driving, listened to the two people bickering without saying anything, but just laughed, thinking it was very interesting!
