Jimmy didn't plan to kill them all, the cargo handlers were small fry, to get a big haul, he had to keep someone alive for interrogation, so his first round of fire targeted non-lethal areas.
But Jimmy completely underestimated the ferocity of these people. They kept shooting back while hiding behind various shelters, and even when they got shot, they didn't completely give up.
Seeing this situation, Jimmy gave up as well. He pulled out the revolver Python, aimed at someone who showed their head, and fired a shot, instantly killing one person. "Nick! Ah~~" Seeing their own get killed, the person hiding with him behind cover seemed overly shocked, and stood up spreading bullets wildly toward Jimmy's general direction.
Jimmy fired two more shots from the side of the cover, and the shooting instantly went silent.
The two sides had completely unequal visibility, and in a short minute, two of the four smugglers were killed, leaving the remaining two trembling with fear, hiding behind their cover without exposing their heads at all.
"Drop your guns and surrender!"
Jimmy saw them squatting behind cover and didn't shoot through the box to kill them. Instead, he shouted for them to surrender.
Hearing Jimmy's shout, the two men realized that the people outside were definitely not from the underworld; only police or official agencies would shout like that. The two whispered something to each other, then shouted, "Don't shoot, I'm surrendering."
They placed their guns on the ground, raised their hands high above the cover, and then slowly stood up. Both seemed to have been shot, their bodies slightly off-kilter.
"Turn around, hands up and back up slowly. The one on the left, stop. The one on the right, keep backing up. Stop."
Jimmy gave them orders. When the one on the right was roughly in his position, he told him to stop, pulled zip ties from his back waist, twisted his arm behind his back, tied him up, searched him, and threw all the pockets' wallets and phones onto the nearby single sofa, then pushed him to sit aside.
"Keep backing up, no sudden moves." The second person followed the same routine, and finally, the two smugglers were handcuffed by Jimmy, sitting on the ground about a meter apart. Both the person on the left and right of them were shot once, one in the abdomen, the other in the leg, so far it seemed not too problematic.
Jimmy: "Your names."
The one on the left: "Brian Green."
The one on the right: "Marcus Johnson."
The lights in the warehouse weren't bright, but close enough to see clearly, the two had already seen Jimmy's appearance by now, an Asian member of a government agency in a suit, unmistakably the FBI.
Jimmy: "What are you shipping?"
Marcus: "Luxury goods, bags, jewelry, watches and the like."
Jimmy: "Which gang are you from?"
Marcus, who had spoken just now, went silent. The goods were clearly laid out here. Opening them would reveal what's inside, but answering which gang they were from was seeking death. The police could offer temporary protection, but the gangs could make him never see the sun again.
Jimmy wasn't anxious. In smuggling cases, it's about getting more while looking for less, not the main goal. He looked at Brian on the left. Jimmy wasn't Ruiz. He hadn't seen gang data and didn't know what Brian looked like, "Brian? From Black Gang?"
Brian got nervous, his head slightly lifted but then lowered again, how did this guy know about him?
Seeing Brian not speaking, but the movement of his head indicated his mind was far from calm, Jimmy said, "Anthony has been shot. You have ten seconds to think about what you want to say next."
Brian, head lowered, but the slight shaking of his head and shoulders exposed his thoughts. Although dim, within Jimmy's perceptive range it was clear, the shaking was not much, but very apparent.
Jimmy: "Now, tell me, Black Gang?"
Brian nodded, and Jimmy continued, "Where are Daquan Johnson and Malik Williams?"
Brian: "They've been sent off, now probably on a ship at sea."
Jimmy: "Which ship? The smuggling one?"
Brian: "Yes, they were sent on board earlier, once the cargo here is delivered they would leave New York."
Jimmy: "Destination?"
Brian: "Don't know, I just have to get people to the sea."
Jimmy turned to Marcus: "Marcus, I believe you know what I'm asking, speak, what's the destination? Ship number?"
Marcus: "Jiade, a small cargo ship."
Jimmy: "When are they leaving?"
Marcus: "Once we return, they would leave."
Jimmy didn't ask more questions, instead, he walked out of the warehouse and looked at the sea, seeing nothing.
With no choice, Jimmy had never carried out a sea mission before, even though the small boat was still at the dock, his skillset didn't include sailing, to board himself he'd have to have the captured Marcus sail, with great risk and chance of accidents exposing them, letting the cargo ship escape.
He took out his phone and called Ruiz, "Confirmation received, they're on a small cargo ship in the bay, the ship name is Jiade. Found Brian at the warehouse here at the dock, they're smuggling luxury goods. Notify the Coast Guard? Or do I have the smugglers bring me directly onboard?"
Ruiz: "Wait, I'll contact the Coast Guard, watch the warehouse, I'll send someone over to take over."
Jimmy: "Okay, come right over."
Ruiz: "How many people on your side?"
Jimmy: "Captured two, killed two. They're both shot once, please call an ambulance over."
Ruiz: "Alright, wait for updates."
Jimmy went back to the warehouse, gave the two some emergency treatment, tied the leg with a belt to slow blood loss slightly, and for the one shot in the abdomen, he could only grab a piece of clothing nearby, tying him up, moving his hands to the front so he could press on it himself.
Jimmy exited the warehouse, not going back inside, just watching the sea outside, occasionally turning to check the warehouse, ensuring the two remained in their original spots sitting.
After a few minutes, a light suddenly appeared in the distance at sea, Jimmy without binoculars couldn't see clearly what's happening.
Ruiz moved quickly, after calling the bureau and Coast Guard, he drove back to the front of the dock, once an ambulance came over, he directly rammed open the wire gate, bringing the ambulance to the warehouse.
The arrival of the ambulance saved the two, preventing excessive blood loss, but Jimmy temporarily couldn't let them leave, only he and Ruiz here couldn't take care of the scene while following the ambulance to the hospital.
After a while, suddenly a few speedboats appeared on the sea, with bright lights all over the hull, rushing to the previously illuminated place.
Jimmy could see the speedboats approaching the illuminated spot, where the light outlined the shape of a ship.
The Coast Guard was fast, from the time Jimmy called Ruiz to now, in less than half an hour, they had confirmed the ship's location and started approaching the ship for enforcement.
Ruiz's phone rang, after answering and hanging up, he came to Jimmy's side, Jimmy looked at Ruiz, "How's it?"
Ruiz: "No one on the ship, everyone abandoned ship and fled."
Jimmy: "What? Impossible, nobody here had the chance to call, how did they know about the incident?"
Ruiz: "Not clear now, can't rule out a mishap from the Coast Guard side, anyway now no one's been captured, they shouldn't have escaped the city, still in New York."
Jimmy: "Fxxk! Where are the people you called? Get them here quickly."
Ruiz: "On the way, I'll accompany them over."
Jimmy: "Alright."
This mishap was unexpected for Jimmy, in the bay, with the Coast Guard targeting, the cargo ship had enough time to evacuate all personnel, it's just absurd.
