The Blacklist

Chapter 51: Matter resolved and job resumed
After confirming that there was no danger in the church and the underground space, Carrie asked the combat team to send Garrick from the trunk of the SUV to the basement, and then they could leave. Unexpectedly, the other party refused to leave, saying that he had orders and would wait until he dealt with everything in there, and they would be responsible for cleaning up.

Well, Carrie didn't force them. He let them retreat to the small church upstairs and interrogated Garrick himself. After learning everything he knew, he shot him twice in the head and twice in the heart, killing him completely.

In fact, he knew that the shot that Reddington shot at Garrick before only pierced his cheekbone and did not damage his brain, otherwise there was no way he could be "resurrected". Doing this now is also a way to show "respect" to the "undead"!
Afterwards, he walked around this former CIA black prison and swept away a large number of supplies for evacuation that Garrick's team had kept there, most of which were various cash, passports, clothes, food, etc. There were not many weapons, but there were dozens of them, all of which were good guns, mainly pistols; there was also a bunch of car keys with stickers on them indicating where they were parked, which were naturally taken away.

After finishing, Carrie and Gina went upstairs and told the leader of the combat team that they had completed their work. The leader asked him if he needed to clean up. Carrie thought about it and decided not to. It would be better to leave it to the FBI to finish it up, and they could also cause trouble for the CIA. He was confident that he and Gina had left no trace.

The leader of the combat team expressed his understanding, then handed him a key to a Land Rover, exchanged it for the SUV, and said that he would dispose of the car and let them leave without worry.

"Thank you!" After expressing his gratitude, Carrie and Gina drove away in the new car...

Ten minutes later, Gina drove the car a few streets away and used the special magnetic card found in the Black Prison to enter a small underground parking lot. The evacuation vehicles that Garrick prepared for his team were all here. There were nearly fifty vehicles of various types. The parking lot was also rented for a period of three months, and no one would come to take care of it before the expiration.

Carrie also put away the Land Rover and chose a mid-range luxury coupe. He put away all the other vehicles, then drove with Gina to an old street in the city, found an old villa with its own entrance and courtyard, and drove in - this was a safe house that Reddington told him about alone, and even Dembe and Zeng Luli didn't know about it.

It was already five in the morning, and the day was almost dawn. The two of them helped each other take a hot bath, and then went to bed to catch up on some sleep...

At about the same time, Elizabeth, dressed in formal attire, returned to the post office, got out of the elevator, and walked to the command hall. Looking at the people who were still busy, she asked in surprise, "Can anyone tell me what happened here? Are you all okay?"

Everyone, led by Cooper, looked at her speechlessly, and almost said directly "Just pretend!"
Elizabeth showed her strong psychological qualities in this situation. She walked to Cooper's side naturally, took out a USB drive and handed it to him, saying, "Cooper, this was given to me by a masked lady. She said there was some evidence inside!"

Cooper looked at her helplessly, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say. He could only sigh and take the USB drive.

Although October 10th was a Saturday, the people in the post office had no time to rest. While sorting out the internal affairs of the base, they also had to accept the investigation of the FBI headquarters. Later, the DOJ investigation team also came, led by Diane Fowler, the head of the criminal division. Diane was very aggressive at first, and even wanted to close the post office and disband the SER team on the grounds that there was an attack from outside and a traitor inside. But after seeing the complete video of "Carrey killing people in the street" suddenly shown by Cooper, her arrogance disappeared immediately, but she still insisted: Even if Carrey killed in self-defense, the attack on the post office showed that there were great security risks here, and it must be closed!
Cooper was so angry that he didn't know how to respond when a call came to Diane's mobile phone. After answering the call, Diane was no longer arrogant and announced helplessly: All inspections of the post office will be lifted, and the SER team can continue to operate, but security measures must be strengthened...

Before leaving, Diane said to Cooper, "Cooper, I didn't expect you to have such a strong background. You are very powerful. You played a good hand. I hope you will continue to work hard in the future!"

Hearing these sour words, Cooper had no idea what was going on and felt a bit confused!
But then, the SER team received an official document from the Ministry of Justice, revoking the wanted warrants for Agents Kerry and Gina and restoring their positions and jobs. In the previous crisis response, all members of the SER team performed well and were commended. They hoped that they would continue to work hard and solve more major cases...

This magic trick was so amazing that everyone was stunned!
Only Elizabeth, who was also working overtime, thought of the bald old man they intercepted on the way. For this reason, she also looked up the information of this person and found that he was a member of the House of Representatives, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and the deputy director of national intelligence. What a big shot! At this time, her mentality had begun to change, and she had a new view of this system and adjusted her perspective on the problem.

This is of course a good thing for Cooper. Now that Donald is injured and hospitalized, the only core agents of SER are Mira, Elizabeth and Aram, and the latter cannot go out on field missions. He urgently needs Carrie and Gina to come back - and he has something important to ask them!

But when Cooper called Carrie, he heard that Carrie and Gina were spending the weekend in Virginia Beach, which made him furious! He wanted to order them to come back immediately, but then he thought of what happened before and felt that he and everyone in the post office owed Carrie a favor. So he couldn't say anything, and could only say: Come to work on time on Monday.

When Carrie received Cooper's call, he was sleeping in and naturally didn't want to go back. He had been busy all night and needed a good rest. In fact, he and Gina were in Baltimore now.

At noon, Carrie and Gina got up and washed. He took a look at the system display: "The host completed the triggering task 16: saving the SER crisis, killing Garrick and his 50 mercenaries, rewarding 10.9 crime-fighting points, and recovering 2745 million criminal funds." This time it was okay, and the harvest was not small. He used a red bottle of life to rescue Donald, who had a serious thigh injury, to prevent him from becoming semi-disabled with poor legs and feet in the future. It was also worth it.

After he used the Red Bottle of Life for the first time, it became a product on the shelves, priced at 1 crime-eliminating points. It is not cheap, but if it can save the life of someone around him, it is certainly worth it!
