The Blacklist

Chapter 305: Ending the Evil Research
"Well, that's a good idea." Carrie naturally agreed with Reddington's proposal, but he still had to guide everyone to solve the case first. "Malik studied this place, obviously to rob the gambling money. Tang, we can arrange the operation!"

According to the discussion between Carrie and Donald, in this operation, SER was responsible for arresting people, SLR was responsible for checking the money, and all the operatives who were on leave at home were called back and immediately rushed to New York, and Carrie followed them.

New York State has enacted law prohibiting commercial gambling, so it is natural to close down illegal casinos and confiscate gambling funds. A large group of people surrounded the building in the evening and began to take action.

SER and SLR agents, with the field operations team, took control of the scene in one raid. Donald used a Taser to subdue Natalie, who was disguised as a waitress, but found no trace of Malik at the scene.

Because of Natalie's special situation, the CDC New York branch was notified before the operation. While other agents were still cleaning up the scene, the CDC ambulance arrived and took Natalie away.

Gina led the SLR agents to control the gambling tycoons at the scene and screened them one by one. Kolisha, who rarely participated in the operation, was responsible for collecting the gambling money, calculating the assets of the tycoons, and determining the amount of the fine...

Carrie did not enter the casino at the beginning. He drove a car around the periphery. No one knew what he was doing, but no one would comment. At most, they would guess: The boss is being lazy again!

Donald was the commander-in-chief of the on-site operation. What he was most worried about during the entire operation was naturally the terrible virus carrier Natalie. He was relieved only after he personally knocked her out and handed her over to the CDC team that arrived. But then he got angry again - Alam reported: The special negative pressure ambulance sent by the CDC will arrive soon, please be prepared for the handover!
Shit! Donald cursed. The CDC hasn't arrived yet, so who did he hand the person over to?
Knowing that he had been cheated, Donald immediately led people to chase after it, but on the way, Alam reported: According to road monitoring, the fake CDC ambulance has been found, but there are other vehicles also tracking it, and even a van is violently ramming the ambulance!

More than ten minutes later, when Donald, Nawabi, Mira, Elizabeth and others chased to the edge of a woods, they saw the ambulance and a van collided and both overturned on the side of the road. An SUV was parked next to them. Carrie was standing in front of the car, checking the scene with a pistol in his hand.

At this time, Malik, who was injured in the rollover, climbed out of the van and immediately ran to the ambulance to rescue Natalie without paying attention to the gazes of others...

The back door of the ambulance opened, and Natalie staggered out. Seeing Malik running over, she immediately shouted, "Stop! Don't come over! They have guns..." Before she finished her words, a gunshot was heard behind her, and Malik was shot in the abdomen and fell to the ground!
Donald, Nawabi and others immediately pointed their guns at the ambulance, but the first person to react was naturally Carrie, who was not far away. With two shots, he killed the two gunmen who leaned out of the ambulance on the spot.

Carrey could have shot and saved Malik in advance, but he didn't - because no matter what the reason, this guy planned and instigated the innocent Natalie to kill so many people because of what he thought was "noble love". He deserved to die! However, he still let him go, signaled everyone not to come forward, and acquiesced to Malik's holding Natalie's hands in the end and closing his eyes peacefully.

In theory, Natalie should also be executed. Not to mention that she herself is a dangerous source of the virus, she was also the one who committed the previous series of murders. Just because of her worldview that disregards the lives of others, she should be completely eliminated. However, in order to obtain some relevant information and intelligence, he can only let her go temporarily.

Soon, the real CDC ambulance arrived. Donald conducted a special verification and only allowed it to take Natalie away after confirming its authenticity.
-
The CDC New York branch has a special isolation monitoring ward that can accommodate patients like Natalie, but Donald still sent a team of SER field operations team members to put on chemical protective suits and perform peripheral security tasks. After a night's rest, the next day, Donald and Nawabi conducted the first interrogation of Natalie in the isolation ward, and the information they obtained surprised them!

The Hawthorne Biological Institute is nominally a charitable organization, but in fact it controls and uses various special virus-infected people "rescued" from all over the world, and uses biochemical experiments to conduct related virus weaponization research!

For more than a decade, the agency has been treating Natalie as a test subject... until Malik, who came to work there, discovered this, fell in love with Natalie, and helped her escape from the company's cage!

The SER agents were very angry when they learned about this situation. Kerry and Donald jointly signed an order to seize and arrest Hawthorn Silkworm Biology. From the president to the technical staff, all were arrested. What awaits them will be legal sanctions, and their related assets will naturally be seized and taken over by the IRS.

For this, CTU, SLR, SER, Kerry, Donald and others were all credited.

That night, Carrie brought Reddington to the isolation ward of the CDC, and asked Natalie on the other side of the glass about the mastermind who hired her to kill Zack - Isabella Stone!
When he heard this name, Reddington was extremely surprised, because he had heard of this woman, an extremely skilled killer and conspiracy planner! But what he couldn't figure out was who hired her to deal with him?
Reddington couldn't figure it out. "Lee, no matter how I think about it, it seems wrong, but I can't figure out who is behind her."

"There must be a reason, but you just can't think of it now!" Carrie said, "I think you should calm yourself down and investigate. No conspiracy can go unnoticed."

Reddington nodded and thought about it...
-
On Monday, March 3, at noon, in a high-end restaurant in the east side of Washington, Reddington met with Stratos Saratos, his supervisor in charge of the Mediterranean shipping business. He had followed him for more than 6 years and was both his old subordinate and old friend.

A few days later would be Stratos and his wife's 23rd wedding anniversary. Reddington specially rented a luxury room in Monte Carlo, Monaco and deposited 2.5 US dollars in the casino as a gift.

In fact, Reddington was in a very anxious mood, because his business in various places seemed to be blocked, which made him alert.

At this time, Elizabeth walked into the restaurant and looked around. When Reddington saw her, he waved his hand and said hello, then said goodbye to Stratos.
