In the afternoon, Caitlin brought someone with her to the hospital where Jimmy was staying, and went straight to the outside of his ward. She had long since obtained this location information and didn't need to inquire at the nurse's station.

"Knock knock," Jimmy looked up and said, "Come in, Ms. Katherine Prado."

Caitlin: "Jimmy, how are you feeling? Are you doing okay?"

Jimmy: "Just a minor injury, nothing serious."

Caitlin waved her hand to the person beside her, and after her subordinate went out and closed the door, they stood guarding the entrance.

Caitlin: "First of all, I want to make it clear: this incident has nothing to do with us."

Jimmy: "The reason?"

Caitlin: "I will explain, but before then, could you put down the gun?"

Jimmy shrugged, placed his hands in front of him—Python was already in his grasp. "Just a precaution. Go on."

Caitlin: "We've investigated the people who attacked you, and they are not our operatives. From their style of operation, they seem more like a group of mercenaries than agents.

We couldn't find any information on them in the system, and you should believe that if we can't find them, your FBI won't be able to either."

Jimmy: "So, what exactly is going on?"

Caitlin: "We are still investigating and haven't reached a conclusion yet. However, I want you to know that you are one of us, and we will do everything possible to investigate this matter."

Jimmy nodded: "I agree with you, I am part of the company. Ma'am, I still hope that you will cooperate with the FBI to investigate where these people came from, where they got their intelligence, and why they ambushed me."

Caitlin looked at Jimmy, and after a while, she nodded, "I will synchronize the clues with Hughes." After saying this, she bid farewell to Jimmy and left the ward.

Once Jimmy was sure they had left the area outside his ward, he put Python back under the pillow. Ever since he had been in the ward, his Heart Eye had been open—the hospital was bustling, and if the attacker came now, it would indeed be troublesome; there were no real barriers in the ward to stop bullets.

Caitlin's deliberate visit had further reduced her level of suspicion. If it were really Caitlin, she would definitely not dare to come now, especially knowing the outcome of the fight. Against someone as fierce as Jimmy, the best approach would be either to arrange a group to directly enter the hospital and execute a kill or to ignore it, waiting for Jimmy or the FBI to contact her.

If it wasn't Caitlin, then he was truly in a desperate situation, completely clueless as to what his next move should be, only able to rely on backward investigation of those five people to find clues. Hopefully, Mahong would deliver and determine their origins, then see how to proceed with the investigation.

In the evening, Chuck and Nia came to Jimmy's ward. Chuck simply said a few words before leaving, while Nia stayed to keep Jimmy company for a while. She had also brought some food for Jimmy, but unfortunately, he couldn't eat anything right now. According to the doctor's orders, he could only have liquid food for the next week, so the food Nia brought could only be enjoyed by herself.

Upon hearing of Jimmy's ambush, Chuck and Nia had started cooperating with Mahong's investigation. The incident was too significant: gunfire on the streets of Manhattan using automatic weapons, multiple fatalities, and injuries—this was no longer just a matter for one FBI department.

New York City's government and police department were now swamped and had to enforce news control to prevent the media from reporting speculative stories.

Nia sat beside the bed, looking at Jimmy with a bit of speechlessness.

Ever since Jimmy had been attacked, she had been asked by him not to come too often for some time—and yet the attacks kept happening one after another, incessantly.

It was uncertain whether it was just Jimmy's bad luck, or if other FBI agents also had to face such danger all the time. Being the girlfriend of an agent was indeed a tough role.
