The Blacklist

Chapter 79: The First Time the Mission Was Not Completed
Cooper, Carrie and a group of agents listened to Donald's final analysis.

In the third-to-last case, a taxi driver crashed his car into a heavy truck. The female victim was named Michelle Michelle. She was a research assistant in the clinical trial 15 years ago, responsible for selecting and reviewing the qualifications of the experimental participants.

In the penultimate case, a "mentally ill woman" dragged another person to set herself on fire at a gas station. The victim, Bennett Cochran, was a pharmaceutical industry lobbyist 15 years ago. It was he who pushed for the clinical trial to be approved by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration).

The last case was a shooting case in which the murderer was shot dead on the spot. The victim, Ian Wright, was a venture capitalist 15 years ago and an investor in that clinical trial.

The victims in the three cases were all participants or promoters of the clinical trial 15 years ago, and the families of the three murderers all received "inheritance or gifts from distant relatives" and escaped from their life difficulties!
This shows that Babbitt really used his own money to hire a killer for revenge! The reason why he chose to take revenge 15 years later was also confirmed by the medical records found in his home - Babbitt is now terminally ill and will not live long!
After Donald finished his analysis, Cooper asked, "Where will this Babbitt go now, and how can we catch him?"

Mira then said: "I think this 'Undertaker' will personally carry out the most important suicide attack in the end, and the target should be this person..." As she spoke, she projected a photo on the computer onto the big screen.

"Dr. Frederick Osborne was the director of the endocrinology department of City Memorial Hospital 15 years ago. He was the lead investigator of the DPP-4 class (inhibitory oral hypoglycemic drug) new drug clinical trial. Now he has been promoted to the director of the hospital!"

Cooper looked at Carey, who nodded and ordered, "Find this Osborn, I believe Babbitt is with him!"

Everyone agreed and immediately contacted the Metropolitan Police Department, asking them to go to the nearest hospital and home to look for the dean. They soon received feedback: the dean was not found, and his wife and colleagues could not contact him, but Osborne's car was found in the hospital parking lot.

"It seems that Babbitt has succeeded!" Carrie said, "Babbitt must have the intention of dying this time. He wants to die together with Dean Osborne. I think he should choose a place that suits him..."

"Cemetery!" Donald said immediately, and others nodded in agreement with this guess.

Elizabeth, who had been flipping through the information, suddenly said, "Westport Cemetery! The information I just saw said that Babbitt was a volunteer there!"

"Very good, let's go!" Carrie nodded and was about to lead the way out.

"Richard, wait a moment." Cooper suddenly said, "I haven't exercised for a long time. I'll go with you this time. You stay at home!"

"Huh?" Before Carrie could react, the old man ran out and caught up with the team, making the agents laugh. They waved goodbye to Carrie and went out!

Kerry sighed speechlessly, turned around and looked at Aram who was sitting in front of the computer, and said, "Okay, let's just keep each other company at home!"

"NO, Richard, I'm going to check the server system upgrade now, you should stay here by yourself!" After saying that, Aram also ran away! "Hey! You ungrateful guy!" Carrie shouted helplessly from behind.

Ten minutes later, Carrie was sitting bored in the office, drinking tea and flipping through the information confiscated from Babbitt's house, when Reddington suddenly came to the door.

"Hey! Richard, why are you the only one left here? Where's Cooper?" Reddington greeted as he entered the office.

"He went out on a field mission with me. He said he wanted to get some exercise." Kerry said, "Old Lei, you wouldn't come here if there was nothing wrong. Tell me, what's the reason this time?"

"I provided you with information about 'The Undertaker', and now I'm here to ask for a reward!" Reddington sat down and reached out to take a piece of information from the table. "These are what you got from his house, right?"

"Okay, stop pretending... Here, this should be what you need!" Carrie threw a document in front of him, "This is the original, make a copy and take it away! It's because I'm here. If Cooper was here, I guess you two would have another fight!"

"Haha! I knew that you, Richard, are the best friend!" Reddington laughed, then handed the document to Dembe next to him. The big black man directly used the copier in the hall to make a copy and put it in his pocket.
-
More than an hour later, the agents who were out returned under the leadership of Cooper, all with gloomy looks on their faces! Without waiting for Carrie to ask, Elizabeth said, "Babbitt took the bomb and died together with Osborn in the Westport Cemetery!"

"Evildoers will be punished!" Carrie sighed and nodded, and everyone else nodded.

In fact, Carrie knew it within half an hour, because the system displayed: "Triggering task 23 is not completed, Babbitt committed suicide."

This was the first time he had failed to complete a mission after having this crime-killing system. Fortunately, it was a triggered mission, so there was no punishment! This was actually a deliberate result, because the last four people were killed by Babbitt for revenge. He determined from the data that the previous victims all had big problems themselves, and it can be said that they were not good people. From this aspect, although Babbitt's sin value was not low, he was actually a good person.

However, there was something he needed to explain to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding, so he got up and walked into Cooper's office.

Seeing him come in, Cooper said, "Richard, although we failed to catch Babbitt, this 'Undertaker' is dead. There is one less threat to society, and it also helped solve dozens of previous cases. It is also a great achievement."

"Yeah, the result is pretty good." Carrie said, "But there is something I need to tell you. Reddington came here just now and asked me for Babbitt's client transfer records. I gave it to him!"

"Why?" Cooper frowned and said, "Richard, you shouldn't have given it to him."

"I know I shouldn't, Cooper." Carrie said, "But I also know that the reason why Reddington was willing to put 'Undertaker' on the blacklist and told us was because he wanted this thing; and there was another emergency. He is now facing an attack that is about to come, and this attack will also implicate SER, so I will help him, hoping that he can hold on..."
