The FBI operates 24 hours a day, ready to deal with all kinds of emergencies, so getting a few people to help was definitely no problem. Ruiz had been in Manhattan for many years and had a certain influence. He quickly assembled a group of on-duty agents ready to come for support.

The eight newly arrived agents assembled within an hour. Having been notified in advance about the arrest operation, everyone brought along bullet-proof vests and either rifles or shotguns. With this firepower, they could easily suppress dozens of people.

When the time came, everyone donned their bullet-proof vests and rifles, gathered around the surveillance van, and Ruiz began to make arrangements.

This was a secluded corner, mainly to avoid alarming others. In the middle of the night, if a group of people stood on the street wearing bullet-proof vests and holding rifles, anyone who saw them would choose to call the police right away.

Ruiz pulled out a hand-drawn map, shining a flashlight on it: "You two take the side alley and prevent anyone from running away through here. You three watch the back. There are no doors there, but the windows on the first and second floors are low, and the likelihood of someone jumping out is high, so be cautious and protect yourselves.

You two will enter through the front door with me and Jimmy. You, stay at the door. If anyone jumps out of the front window, cuff them. Here are some zip ties to distribute; take a bunch just in case there are too many people inside for the handcuffs to suffice. Everyone clear?"

The eight agents confirmed their positions, quietly responding with an "Aye!"

Ruiz: "Now put on your radio headsets and test them." After a few agents spoke softly to confirm the radios were working, Ruiz looked at his watch: "Let's go, we'll attack in 10 minutes."

Ruiz held an MP5, of course wearing a bullet-proof vest, with a Glock on his waist. Since they were going to enter the building in the dark, each person wore a headlamp, and they also carried a flashlight to use when necessary.

Jimmy did not use a long gun. He simply pulled out his Python with his right hand and held a flashlight in his left hand, and was ready to go just wearing a bullet-proof vest. Flashlights were cumbersome, and if it weren't for the crowd, he would just turn his flashlight off.

The group walked a block to the target building's side alley.

This was an old house. According to the surveillance team's information, it used to be a restaurant. The first floor was the hall, with stairs to the second floor on the left and private dining areas on the right. In the middle was the main hall, leading to a long bar at the rear, which connected to the kitchen.

The second floor contained several rooms; off the staircase was a corridor leading to various partitioned rooms. Due to a lack of intelligence, they still didn't know the exact number of rooms on the second floor, nor the number of people inside. They estimated based on the number of people seen entering and exiting the building.

Ruiz glanced at his watch, "Move out."

Ruiz and his colleagues approached the front door, with Jimmy in the lead, followed by Ruiz, and the other two agents behind them. Jimmy examined the door lock, then turned to an agent with a shotgun and said, "One shot to break the lock."

The agent checked the lock's position, loaded a door-breaking bullet into the shotgun, and pressed it directly against the lock. "Bang," a slug was the simplest to break a lock, instantly destroying the latch, then he kicked the door in. Jimmy was the first to enter the hall: "FBI! We have a warrant, everyone get down, don't move."

The agent with the shotgun veered to the left, watching the stairs in case someone came down suddenly, while another with an M16 aimed at the front bar, moving towards the bar and kitchen area. Jimmy, with the Python in hand, went right to clear the dining areas, with Ruiz following a meter behind him.

There were three people on the first floor, all in the dining areas on the right, but they were in two separate areas. The sound of the shotgun had already alerted them, and Jimmy's loud "FBI!" let them know who was coming. Jimmy could already see them sitting up from their beds, pistols in hand, getting off the beds.

"FBI, drop your weapons and surrender," Jimmy called as he approached the first dining area. These areas were divided by wooden panels, almost the same as not being bulletproof. If not for the procedure requiring Jimmy to shout, he would prefer to shoot directly, as shouting also risked revealing his position.

"Bang bang bang," the people in the dining area shot first, firing blindly through the paneling with no line of sight, just aiming where Jimmy had been. Their shooting was completely off, as Jimmy had been slowly moving. As soon as the other side fired, he quickly ran forward two steps, aimed at the target, and fired two shots, the first hitting the chest, the second aimed at the upper arm to disable his gun-carrying ability.

The two people in the second dining area also fired. Ruiz, seeing Jimmy rush the first area, aimed at the second area and shot through the wooden panels to suppress them. Without a line of sight, this suppression would keep them from returning fire.

Jimmy stopped shouting. Sure that his second shot hit the arm, he saw the man's handgun fall on the bed and was about to move forward to arrest him when suddenly, the man reached with his left hand for the gun. Jimmy fired another shot straight to the heart and turned away without wasting any more time on this small fry. There was no time to waste; the opportunity for an arrest was left for those upstairs.

Jimmy emerged from the first dining area, and Ruiz also stopped firing to prevent friendly fire. Jimmy rushed to the entrance of the second dining area and emptied the remaining three bullets inside. Ruiz's wall-penetrating suppression had been effective; one of them had been hit and lay on the bed. Jimmy arrived and hit the unhurt man with two shots, one to the chest and one to the abdomen, and the man on the bed with another shot.
