Ding ding, the phone rang. Owen looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Brian.
Just now, Nina confirmed that Salim's attack on Owen was actually an accident. His real intention was to kill Jack Bauer. Owen finally felt relieved, as long as he didn't target his family.
When Owen was about to call Brian, Brian called him first.
"Owen, how are you doing there?"
"Brian, thank you. I have just finished my work here. I have basically confirmed that this matter is not against me, and it should not involve my family..."
"Well, I saw the news, but Owen, I'm afraid things are not that simple. Your family may be in trouble..."
"Getting into trouble? What do you mean? What did you find out?"
"When I came over, I found that someone was indeed monitoring them, but it wasn't terrorists, it was the FBI."
"What? FBI? Why?"
"Let's talk about it when you get here."
After hanging up the phone, Owen's heart was racing. What was going on and why the FBI was targeting his mother and sister? Owen couldn't figure it out.
Owen was extremely anxious, Tony was not around, and Nina was interrogating Salim again. Owen only spoke to Chloe, whom he was familiar with, and borrowed a car to go out.
As soon as I walked to the door, I happened to see Tony coming back from a mission. What happened with Salim tonight was just a sideshow. The real boss was Cruel Angel. Tony had been leading people to look for clues about Cruel Angel all night.
Several people behind Tony were dressed in combat equipment and were holding one person in custody. Seeing Owen, Tony said: "Irving, you did a good job tonight."
Obviously, even though he was on a mission outside, he still knew about Irving.
Owen was not in the mood to accept any compliments now. Seeing that Owen seemed anxious, Tony couldn't help but ask: "What happened?"
Irving pondered for a moment and decided to tell the truth: "A friend of mine discovered that the FBI was spying on my family. I went back to check..."
Tony frowned. The CTU was in trouble right now. Cruel Angel had obviously targeted them. Jack Bauer's worry was not groundless. It could be said that every agent was in danger now.
"I'll go with you." Tony said, and then waved to the people escorting the suspect behind him: "You take him in first and hand him over to Nina."
Owen didn't refuse, and the two got into the car. Owen drove very fast along the way.
The car soon drove into the Zilin Road community where Owen's home was located. Owen got out of the car and saw Brian standing on the lawn in the distance, with a person lying at his feet.
Irving took two quick steps and said, "What's going on? What did you say the FBI was going on?"
Brian didn't answer. He glanced at Tony, who was following him, and threw something over, "See for yourself."
Owen took it in his hand, and it was an ID. On the back was the three-letter abbreviation of FBI, and on the front was Donnie Berkeley, senior agent of the FBI's Los Angeles branch. It seemed that this was the trouble Brian was talking about.
Already.
"Is this the guy spying on my family?"
"Yes," Brian nodded, glanced at the guy on the ground and continued: "When I came over, I found that he was spying on your family. I thought he was going to be detrimental to them, so I took a bit of a heavy blow."
Owen looked at the unconscious guy on the ground, and suddenly said in a cold tone: "Okay, get up and talk when you wake up, tell me why you want to spy on my family, otherwise, I want you to look good..."
The guy who was motionless on the ground saw that Owen had figured it out and stopped pretending. He opened his eyes and looked at Owen suspiciously. Then he got up from the ground with full vigilance, looked at Owen and Tony, and then looked at him fearfully.
Look at Brian.
He had actually woken up a long time ago, but he always knew that the guy who had confused him was standing behind him. He didn't know why the other party was attacking him or whether he had weapons, so he kept pretending to be unconscious and waiting for an opportunity. Unexpectedly,
When Owen called him out, he thought the guy behind him would attack him, but the other guy didn't show any surprise at all. It was obvious that he knew he was pretending.
Everyone looked at the guy who got up from the ground. The guy was a little frightened when he saw so many people on Owen's side, and he didn't dare to speak. However, Tony put aside his worries.
Tony showed his ID.
"We are the CTU, and the home you are monitoring is Agent Irving's home. I think you need to give a reasonable explanation, otherwise he is likely to do something unpleasant."
The guy from the FBI finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the identity of CTU. He thought he had met a desperado today and it seemed that he wouldn't have to die. But when he saw Owen's cannibalistic look, he still explained the reason why he did this.
once.
As the whole story of that guy's narrative gradually became clearer, it became clear that this matter had something to do with them.
Owen and Brian exchanged glances calmly.
Cynthia, one of the three girls rescued last time, was addicted to drugs. Although Irving found him a drug rehabilitation center, every time his drug addiction broke out, he was worse than dead.
Unable to bear Cynthia's pleas, Amanda couldn't bear to see her like this and agreed to buy her some drugs to make a transition. However, while buying drugs, she happened to encounter an anti-drug operation jointly conducted by the FBI and DEA, and Amanda was caught.
Amanda was frightened, thinking that the FBI would prosecute her, but she didn't expect that the FBI didn't. Instead, they found Amanda's mother.
It turns out that the FBI was recently investigating an arms company, and Amanda's mother happened to be working as a secretary in this company. The FBI wanted Amanda's mother to be their insider, and in exchange, they would be exempted from prosecuting Amanda.
How despicable!
Just now, Irving just wanted to beat this guy into a pig's head. Now, Irving actually had murderous intentions towards him and dared to threaten his family. He simply didn't want to live anymore.
"Who is your commander?"
"Sonny Stoker."
Owen was about to teach this guy a lesson when a pair of strong hands pulled him. Tony was an FBI field officer before the CTU was established, and he happened to know Sonny Stoker.
This is a guy who will do whatever it takes to get promoted. Any idea of ensuring the safety of Owen's mother is all nonsense.
What this guy is best at is controlling the leverage of some gangsters and letting them fight fire with fire, but this time he went too far and actually targeted Owen's family.
However, things are a bit troublesome. After all, Irving's sister really bought drugs, and the amount may be quite large. The FBI must have solid evidence, otherwise it would not be so confident.
Tony looked at Owen. People like Owen were actually very simple. Although he didn't have much contact with him, he could understand him with just a few glances.
This kind of person has an upright character and worries about many things, especially his family. He is not considered a smart person, but unsmart people usually do not care about the consequences once they break out.
Everyone has a red line, and family is obviously Owen's red line. If he doesn't step on the line, he will be happy and sunny. Once he steps on the line, he will burst out with enough energy to blow himself and those who step on the line to pieces.
Now that Sonny Stock is threatening his family, Owen will definitely not give up. And just now Tony was sure that he felt Owen's thoughts. This guy made no secret of it. He wanted to kill the agent in front of him, and he didn't know what he was going through.
