Jimmy looked at Seventeen, although Ruiz called him over, it was definitely Seventeen who came up with the idea, "Are you planning to continue using this place as a base?"

Seventeen glanced at Ruiz, nodded at Jimmy, "The conditions here are excellent. Todd and his team chose a good location initially, now that we've taken over his business, naturally, this place has been taken over too."

Jimmy: "Do you plan to continue his business?"

Seventeen: "Yes, this place will be our point of entry to intervene in the gang business, controlling them discreetly."

Jimmy looked at Ruiz: "Are you sure? I'm worried this place might become a major vulnerability for us."

Ruiz: "Yes, this plan has already received some people's approval, though they won't openly support it."

Jimmy: "So, what do you need me to do?"

Ruiz: "No, you just happened to be involved a few days ago and learned about this place, to let you understand what we're doing."

Jimmy nodded: "Got it, this is your business, nothing to do with me."

Jimmy activated Heart Eye Vision to observe the hidden dock here, realizing the project was no small feat, achieving this level in their previous operations wasn't easy. Now that Seventeen and the others have taken over, a lot of people probably won't be able to sleep. It's hard to say what will happen when it resumes operations.

But since Seventeen is handling it, he's likely to leave the counter-terrorism team soon and re-enter an undercover phase, right?

Can he really give up his legitimate career?

Has he developed feelings during undercover missions? Planning to stay in the criminal underworld long-term?

Jimmy couldn't understand Seventeen's and others' thinking. This kind of matter seemed like everything from top to bottom was covered, with someone in front and someone supporting behind. But who will take the fall if it goes out of control in the end?

Jimmy did a simple scan of the surroundings, finding nothing special, no additional hidden spaces, then said goodbye to the two and promised to keep this matter a secret, finally returning home to rest with peace of mind.

To handle this place properly will probably take at least a few more months, this undercover task arranged by Ruiz and the others is definitely much bigger than before. Once they yield results, they'll surely catch a big fish. The question is, can they withstand the storm before the big fish bites?

Ruiz used to be in charge of the anti-gang unit, with deep knowledge of these gang members. Why did he agree to such a high-risk undercover project? Not to mention smuggling, just the agents involved being potentially corrupted is hard to guarantee others can withstand, not everyone is like Jimmy, who can not care about money within certain boundaries.

Leaving the worries aside, it's rare to have a weekend off, Jimmy didn't plan to give his rest day to the bureau as well. A rest day is surely for doing something for himself.

Jimmy's study is no longer just his own space now. The secondary bedroom converted into a study was just the right size for him to review materials and use his computer, but now it's become a study and storage room. The additional damage from living together has seriously encroached on Jimmy's private space. Not everything can be thrown into the living room, so on the weekend, he planned to properly organize the study.

He had thought about buying a bigger house after getting married, and now it's time to put that on the agenda. While cleaning the study, Jimmy was complaining, the gun rack that he and Nia shared is now in the study, taking up a considerable amount of space, they must get a separate room for these things in the future.

Nia worked overtime on the weekend, so the task of organizing these things fell solely on Jimmy. The household didn't have many guns, mainly Jimmy's and Nia's backup guns and a shotgun, all of which need to be disassembled and maintained over time, and the bullets in the magazines need adjustment, preferably not fully loaded if not used frequently, to avoid insufficient elasticity from prolonged deformation of the springs, affecting the magazine's complete feeding capability, this is a simple yet meticulous task requiring delicate handling.

The guns and gun racks certainly can't be moved outside, whether for safety or ease of use, they are best kept in the study as the bedside pistols Jimmy and Nia each have are conveniently placed on the nightstand while sleeping.

So, the cleaning of the study could only see if other boxes and cabinets could be moved out, meanwhile, Jimmy looked at the wall in front of him, reminding him of the medals on his desk. Once they have a bigger house, he must dedicate a wall for these honors, although there are no trophies, there are still many certificates to display.

At times you don't realize just how much useless stuff you've accumulated in the corners collecting dust until you tidy up. After working half a day to finish organizing the study, he moved all the unnecessary garbage and boxes found to the door, intending to throw them away later, these were all of no use.

When Nia came home from work to see the mess in the house, she thought they'd been robbed, prompting a scream that brought Jimmy out of the bedroom where he was organizing the wardrobe, holding a few clothes ready to toss into the washing machine...

"WTF! You scared me, what are you doing?"

Nia put down her bag and walked over, Jimmy raised the clothes in his hand, "Taking advantage of the weekend to organize the room. After the renovation before, we brought everything back, but there's still a lot we don't need, so we'll throw them away later. Also, these clothes need washing."
