Chapter 989 If you are injured, you should rest well
Looking at Jack's thumbs up, Kono shook his long hair and smiled proudly.
"Although there are still many things I can teach you, you should be considered a master in how to beat people." Cheng Hao shook his head slightly and sighed, signaling the police officer behind them to handcuff the last female killer.

This was the first time Jack listened to a trial in a standing manner. When Julie appeared in the witness stand, Allen Brenner's face in the defendant's stand turned visibly pale.
This guy's desperate gamble obviously completely annoyed the entire judicial system. The judge rejected the defense lawyer's request for bail in less than half an hour.
Looking at the guy's weak legs and unable to walk when he was taken away from the court, it was obvious that he also knew what fate was waiting for him.
Hawaii does not have the death penalty, but it is only for the murder case committed by Allen Brenner a few years ago. At present, three of the four killers of the Baha drug cartel are still alive, which is enough for federal prosecutors to file a prosecution.
In this integrated world, the United States has a good execution force at the federal level, but the judicial process is as long and inefficient as ever.
This is actually a good thing in Jack's eyes. Anyway, the chaos in this society cannot be deterred by the death penalty. Letting criminals face the death penalty in the midst of incomparable despair is also a good torture, at least for this kind of stuff in front of him.

"It's no big deal, just a minor injury. I booked a flight back to New York in three days. OK, see you then, good night, dear."
Jack hung up the video call with Jiejie and walked into the bathroom to check the bandage around his waist.
After the trial, at the insistence of everyone, he still went to the hospital. After a checkup, the doctor confirmed that there was no big problem. After re-cleaning and bandaging, he prescribed some anti-inflammatory drugs.
They also took Julie with them to visit the old agent Frick Moore who had just finished the operation.
The doctor who performed the operation on him was the doctor who came with the helicopter before. When he saw Jack, he was very curious and asked him again if he was a military doctor.
According to the doctor, Jack bought precious time for rescue by using coconut juice infusion as an emergency measure.
The old agent is recovering quite well now. As long as he can safely survive the next 48 hours of high-risk infection period, there should be no big problem.
The few people also met the director of the local FBI office outside the ICU, a bald fat man who was about the same age as the old agent. If Danny hadn't reminded him that Jack was injured, he would have been so excited that he wanted to give him a bear hug on the spot.
The reason for this attack is ultimately due to the carelessness of several parties. After all, Hawaii's population cannot supply a large drug market. There are no established drug trafficking organizations except for some small gang forces.
Besides, the military is the biggest here.
The DEA gave the Baha drug cartel a name that was already too high. Its main power is located in Central America. It neither produces nor sells drugs, but relies on being a middleman for other drug cartel to make a little "small money".
Hawaii is one of the ports where the Baha drug cartel transfers drugs, but they are not even local snakes here, which can be seen from the equipment of several gunmen.
Among the four gunmen, one guy in charge of the response took an old model of Scorpion submachine gun, and the most expensive pistol used by the other gunmen was the Beretta 21A "Lynx" hidden on the inner thigh of the assistant lawyer.
This pocket gun, which uses .22LR caliber bullets and is only the size of a palm even with a silencer, has an official price of more than $500.
In summary, no one expected that the killers hired by the Baha drug cartel not only acted arrogantly in Central America, but also remained unscrupulous even in Hawaii, killing nearly three people at the first move, and they were all law enforcement officers.
There was no manpower on the Marshals' Office, no manpower on the DEA side, and even the FBI only sent an old agent who was about to retire. It can only be said that in Hawaii, a holiday paradise in everyone's mind, all parties have lost their due vigilance.
After receiving some gratitude, Jack took Julie back to the Hilton Hotel and arranged her room next to his.
Jack's original protection mission was cancelled. The Marshals will arrive tomorrow. Julie has been officially included in WPP, and not only her, but also her mother and sister.
This matter is also thanks to a nosy FBI agent. Under his guidance, a female prosecutor who was also frightened was indignant and made several phone calls in a row, arranging everything clearly.
Just when someone was standing in front of the bathroom makeup mirror, struggling whether to use healing magic to heal the two holes, the door was suddenly knocked.
Jack opened the door with a feeling in his heart, and as expected, he saw Julie appear at the door, holding up her bandaged arm, "I accidentally got this wet while taking a shower just now, and suddenly I thought that you were also injured, and whether it would be inconvenient to take a shower."
"So?" Jack let her into the room with a smile, and was very glad that he had not had time to use the healing technique, otherwise it would be difficult to explain.
"So. Let me help you." Julie's voice became smaller and smaller, but her hand had already reached out to his vitals dishonestly.

How should you sit when your waist is injured? Of course, you should find a flexible chair to sit on, so Jack had to sit on a sofa chair by the window all night.
As expected of a girl who loves surfing and mountaineering, her physical fitness is not ordinary. Or maybe it was because she was chased all the way during the day, and she accumulated too much pressure in fear.
In short, when the two fell asleep, the originally sturdy sofa chair was almost shaken apart.
Perhaps because of the injury, the two slept until the afternoon of the next day and almost missed Julie's flight.
The people of "Five-O" had been waiting in the hotel lobby with two federal marshals who came from New York. When they saw the two people, they all had strange expressions.
After sending Julie away, Kono, who was walking at the end, looked suspicious, "Are you really injured?"
"Injured people need more rest. Is there any problem?" Jack looked as if it was a matter of course.
Of course, the injured not only need more rest, but also need to make up for it. Jack was a little dissatisfied with the strange Chinese food taste in Honolulu Chinatown, so he went directly to Chinatown to find the old Cantonese immigrants to buy two old hens.
Then he went directly to a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown to find Franklin, borrowed their kitchen and pressure cooker, and stewed a pot of chicken soup for himself.
After he paid a few dozen dollars in tips, the two young kitchen helpers happily helped Jack deliver a large pot of steaming chicken soup to the "Five-O" office.
