230 The acquaintance seen in the surveillance

Jimmy finished his cigarette and went upstairs. Looking at the time, he called for takeout, deciding not to go downstairs for lunch. He really wasn't in the mood to eat out and would just make do with whatever.

However, Jimmy thought too much. Peter's call had reached Jones' phone.

Jones picked up, checked some information on the computer, printed it out, and immediately stood up to grab the suit hanging on the back of the chair. "Jimmy, let's go. Peter has arranged for us to do some surveillance."

Jimmy also picked up his suit and followed Jones to the underground parking lot where they started the surveillance van.

This van was exclusively used by Jones; he checked and maintained the equipment, ensuring it was ready for immediate deployment, and spent some time each day on the vehicle for inspections.

Now was the time for an emergency deployment. Jones drove while Jimmy sat in the passenger seat, heading towards the Upper West Side.
