The Blacklist

Chapter 5 The system mall is very useful
Cooper glanced at him and ordered, "Donald, call Agent Keane to find the child and protect him!"

"Yes." Donald agreed and immediately walked out quickly.

Carrie knew that Cooper defined him as a civilian staff and would not use him for field work, and he was happy with it. So he proposed to use this time to talk to Reddington, but Cooper refused him, saying that he had to solve the Zamani issue first, especially after saving the little girl, and then consider his tax collection issue.

Carrie could only spread his hands, step aside, and take advantage of this free time to tour the base.
-
Two hours later, the rescue team that went out sent back news that they first successfully picked up the girl, but when the convoy was passing a bridge on its way back, it encountered an ambush. Many people were injured and the child was kidnapped!

Cooper was extremely angry and ordered the FBI and police throughout the city to be notified to search for Zamani and others!
Another hour later, the team members who had gone out returned to the base, all of them were very frustrated - as well-trained FBI action team members, they were caught off guard by five robbers, which was a great shame! What was more serious was that the little girl they were supposed to protect was taken away by the robbers, and her life was in danger at any time. It was really a terrible result.

After returning to the base, Elizabeth was also extremely angry, but she quickly calmed herself down, thought of the key point, and interrogated Reddington again in order to obtain information about Zamani in order to rescue the little girl.

During the conversation, Reddington instructed her: If you want to catch dangerous criminals, you must consider the problem from the criminals' perspective, so that you can correctly judge what they will do in the future!
When everyone heard what he said, they were a little confused, so Reddington offered to teach them personally!
Cooper had no choice but to agree to release it from the box and bring it to the command hall.

On the photo wall, Reddington pointed out a robber who was involved in kidnapping the little girl on the bridge, saying that this man was code-named "Chemist" and was an expert in making chemical bombs.

Later, Elizabeth, who was guided to think, analyzed that Zamani's motive was to avenge General Reich's command of air strikes on Serbia and the killing of his relatives with chemical bombs, so his revenge would be to use chemical bombs to kill the little girl...

Carrie watched the whole process and felt that Reddington was very eloquent, and his mix of true and false words was really deceptive.

He wanted to laugh when he saw that the Red Devil provided clues to find the "chemist" and used this to threaten Cooper to leave the "box" and stay in a luxury hotel. His fearless look made him sure of winning over Cooper, Elizabeth and others. Except for him, no one at the scene could see the mystery.
-
When Reddington was sent to a five-star hotel and enjoyed a luxurious dinner, FBI operatives caught the "Chemist" based on his clues!
After hearing the news, everyone felt a lot more relieved. Only Carrie knew that the "chemist" had already handed the prepared chemical bomb to Zamani, and now it was of no use!
Elizabeth asked to go home and was approved by Cooper, but she refused to be accompanied by guards and left alone.

Watching Elizabeth leave the post office, Carrie hesitated for a moment and said to Donald, "Don, I think it might be dangerous for Keane to go back alone so late. You go and protect him!" Donald, who was immersed in studying the map of Washington, D.C., guessing where Zamani might launch a bomb attack, refused without even raising his head. He thought it was not necessary. Elizabeth was a well-trained agent and should be able to protect herself. Besides, her husband was at home, so it was not convenient for him to go.

Carrey was speechless about this man's emotional intelligence, so he decided to go there himself, told Cooper about the matter, and after getting approval, he chased after him. But when he drove out of the post office parking lot, Elizabeth, who was anxious to go home, had already left!
Carrie didn't know Elizabeth's address, so she had to call Donald again to ask...

This back and forth took a lot of time. When he arrived at Elizabeth's house, her husband Tom had been stabbed seriously by Zamani who broke into her house in advance!
After Carrie helped call an ambulance to send the couple away, she activated her battle suit and wrapped her entire body before the Washington police arrived. While ensuring that no traces would be left, she sneaked into Elizabeth's house and looted the emergency equipment box hidden under the restaurant floor!

However, he only took away the $200,000, and left the murder gun and several passports under Tom's alias in the box - these are necessary props that will trigger many plots in the future, so keep them to play a role!
Afterwards, Carrey called Cooper and informed him of the situation at Elizabeth's home; then he drove home. After all, he was not from the FBI, and no one wanted him to get involved too much, so he was happy to go back and rest early.

That night, when the angry Elizabeth rushed to the hotel and stabbed Reddington's carotid artery with a pen, Carrie had just fallen asleep at home - he was too lazy to care about the love-hate relationship between the two.
-
The next morning, after having a Chinese breakfast in Chinatown, Carrie drove to the post office. Looking at the group of "panda-eyed" people he saw, he secretly felt lucky that he had made the right decision to go home and sleep early!

Especially after getting up this morning, he tried it in the system mall and found that it really accepted the US dollars directly, showing that the current funds were 20; and, probably because of the deposit of funds, the mall was quickly updated, and a wide variety of large and small commodities appeared, ranging from toothpicks at a few cents a pack to sports cars at $20...Haha, this is too convenient.

In order to conduct an experiment, he also sent many things in the apartment to the system mall to sell. He found that the mall was very smart and would depreciate the items according to their newness, so he couldn't get any advantage.

However, one thing surprised him: if the items he sold were not already available in the mall, the catalog would be updated immediately and put on the shelves. This feature made him think of many possible applications.
-
Seeing Carrie enter the command hall, Cooper didn't give him a good look, but thinking that he was not an FBI member after all, he didn't say much, he just didn't want to pay attention to him.

Donald took the time to whisper to him that last night, Elizabeth's husband was seriously injured by Zamani and sent to the hospital. She rushed to the hotel and almost killed Reddington! If Cooper hadn't been so generous, Elizabeth could have been arrested now.

Carrie shook her head and expressed her speechlessness. What Elizabeth had done was just the beginning. There would be more things in the future that would make Cooper and Donald anxious!
