North America Gunman Detective

Chapter 1272 696: A Lead Emerges

Alicia Tucker is part of the Tucker Family, though not immediate family, just distant relatives. But there's no doubt that being a leader in the mafia isn't simple. She looked at Jimmy, a young Asian, speaking to them like that and felt a bit unusual; this was very different from the Asians she knew.

She glanced at the burly man standing up and the man holding his arm, then looked at Jimmy again, "I don't know who this BJ you're talking about is. Agent Yang, could you tell me why you're looking for this person?" She said while extinguishing her half-smoked cigarette in the ashtray on the bar, looking more formal.

The security guard who got punched at the door had come in, but after seeing Jimmy take down the burly man, he just stayed to the side and didn't dare approach. He was security, not a fool; if the FBI barged in like this, it wasn't a simple matter.

Now that the boss was out, he naturally came over too, clutching his stomach and standing next to the burly man. Meanwhile, two others, who seemed like gang members, stood on the other side of Jimmy and Hope, with Alicia and the bartender in front, semi-surrounding Jimmy and Hope in the middle.

Alicia's positioning made Hope a bit nervous; the Glock in his hand was still aimed at the burly man, but his head turned a few times, checking out the environment and personnel locations.

Jimmy didn't care. In a scenario like this, if it really came to a fight, he wasn't worried about himself. Back when he was just a good shot, he wasn't afraid of being ganged up on. Now his physical fitness had improved a lot, so he feared even less. Their gun-drawing speed definitely wasn't faster than his.

Jimmy said expressionlessly, "We have two missing agents. The last time they were seen was when someone from your group, called BJ, and two others kidnapped them. Is what I've said clear enough?... Now, tell me, where is this BJ?"

Alicia's expression changed. She stared wide-eyed at Jimmy, a situation completely beyond her expectations. This explained why the two FBI agents came in fully armed and injured two of her men.

Alicia: "We have no one named BJ; the person you're looking for isn't one of ours."

Jimmy: "Whether you have him or not isn't up to you to decide. Someone saw them and confirmed one of them was from your Tucker family."

Alicia: "I said we don't have this person. Perhaps your people saw wrong. Now that you know, please leave my bar."

She waved her hand, and five men approached Jimmy and Hope, with the burly man still at the front. It seemed he was the small leader among them.

The burly man came in front of the two, glaring fiercely at Jimmy, indicating with a hand gesture toward the door: "Please leave; you're not welcome here."

Jimmy didn't back down. He directly grabbed the burly man's wrist, twisted it, then side-kicked his leg, throwing him to the ground. The burly man was down again within minutes. It wasn't because he reacted slowly, but because Jimmy moved too fast. With a painful yell from the burly man on the ground, the four nearby were first shocked, then heard the burly man on the ground shout for action, and they rushed at Jimmy, though this time, no one had knives or guns.

Jimmy didn't give up his position. He had no idea about Hope's combat ability; if he stepped aside and Hope got taken down, it'd be too embarrassing.

It was just four people. Jimmy grabbed one, using him to block another, his feet delivering a series of short kicks to the calves of the other two, hindering them momentarily. He then released the one he grabbed, stepped back two steps, and once again used his right hand to grab another approaching person, giving him a pull that made him lose balance, then a left-handed side push, causing two pairs of people to fall together.

The burly man got up again, now more prepared. Having been ambushed twice by Jimmy, he fell twice in a row, which was incredibly embarrassing. Now, he was so hotheaded, he didn't care that Jimmy and Hope were FBI agents; he just wanted to fight.

Jimmy fought in the front, while Hope aimed his gun from behind at the crowd. But since they had already mixed with Jimmy, he didn't dare shoot, only shouting for everyone to stop, without rushing into the melee.

Alicia and the bartender stepped back a bit but didn't leave, just watched the small brawl in front of them.

The prepared burly man was different from before. Though his attacks had no style, he was clearly skilled in street fighting. Jimmy dodged a few of his heavy punches, then started counterattacking when the speed of his punching slowed. Blocking the man's arm with a punch from his right hand, Jimmy then landed a left hook on his face, snapping his head to the right violently, followed by retracting the right punch for a hit to the stomach, and a kick to knock the burly man to the ground again.

Fighting people like this, Jimmy didn't dare use too much force. His strength and reflexes had evolved, and if he used full force, these guys would be in deep trouble.

Not being able to use full force had its downside. As soon as the burly man was kicked down, those four more or less got up and charged at Jimmy again.

Playing by tag-team rules wasn't fun. Jimmy this time used a bit more strength, switching from unbalancing grabs to straight punches and hooks. Anyone getting close couldn't last a second before being knocked away, blood spurting and teeth snapping out starting to happen.
