Jimmy: "So you're planning to go alone? How long can you live? Late-stage lung cancer ans sothing that I think a genius scientist like you should be clear about. Fleeing with the label of a drug dealer, Skye and the others will definitely be monitored and investigated for many years. You're not protecting them; you're incriminating them."
Walter's once upright posture relaxed, leaning back in his seat to look at Jimmy, "I just want to protect them. I can't be caught, Gus will go after them."
Jimmy: "You know we at the FBI can apply for a witness protection plan, so speak up. I know you lied in front of Hank. I need to know the truth to decide how exactly to handle your case. Don't worry, I have no recording."
After thinking for a mont, Walter said in a low voice: "I need two witness protection plans, besides our family, you need to prepare one for Jesse."
Jimmy nodded: "As long as the information you provide is valuable enough."
Walter seed much more honest this ti. Although Jimmy didn't know exactly how much he was still hiding, he at least corrected several things he said at Hank's house.
Gus's team hid many aspects of the drug trafficking operation from Walter, placing him in a supplier position from the start of their cooperation. Later he directly joined Gus's team, using the underground lab he provided for large-scale production, transforming from providing small-scale cost supply to becoming a wage-sharing partner.
However, Gus never really trusted Walter, trying several tis with different people to replace him. Walter and Jesse managed to avoid being replaced each ti; Gale's death was no different. Walter was taken to the lab by Gus's n Mike and Victor, intending to kill him. Jesse acted in ti to kill Gale, successfully allowing both of them to survive.
Nevertheless, Walter provided a piece of news: two of Gus's n were shot dead and their bodies sent for processing in the lab, clearly indicating sothing went wrong over there.
Jimmy nodded: "I know, those two were shot dead near the chicken farm. The attacker escaped quickly and we couldn't catch them. We're still unsure who did it."
Walter looked at Jimmy in terror. Is the FBI really that capable? Why does it seem like they know everything? He knew Jimmy had only just arrived in Albuquerque within a month and had already figured out Gus's personnel and operation model, while Walter just learned about Jimmy's investigation tonight, having not noticed before.
Jimmy: "So everything traces back to Gus. He should be the largest leader of the xican Cartel Group in Albuquerque. Anything else to say?"
Walter shook his head. He even ntioned Jesse's situation; many things are unavoidable. Hank was suspended because of Jesse, and his assault on Jesse stemd from tracking Jesse to the RV. The criminal facts disclosed previously could not separate from Jesse, forcing him to do his best to protect Jesse.
Jimmy turned the key to start the car, stopping outside Walter's house, looking at Walter: "Don't think about running. Young Walter isn't well; little Holly is still very young. It's most important to spend the remaining ti you have with them."
Walter glanced at Jimmy, opened the car door, and walked straight into his ho while Jimmy also drove away.
Outside Gus's house, Jimmy frowned at the white house in the distance. Gus's house was connected by a tunnel to the house next to it, yet the DEA's monitoring personnel previously arranged never ntioned it. They only monitored and tracked Gus's comings and goings from the outside.
Even the house needed a tunnel for escaping; this guy really felt insecure.
Jimmy watched soone in the house handling docunts behind a table, presumably Gus. There was no second person inside the house. In Gus's records, there was no family, indicating he must not have even hired a housekeeper, which made sense given the drug dealing business. Without such caution, he might have already been exposed.
But the house next door was different. Inside were three people, one situated at a monitoring station. Just looking at the grid of monitors in front, it's clear what it's for. The other two stood by the window, observing Jimmy's car from the side.
Simply leaving wasn't great. Jimmy thought for a while, deciding to at least greet them.
He took out his business card, got out of the car to gesture at Gus's adjacent house, noticing they turned their heads to say sothing through the window, clearly aware of him. He put the card on the sidewalk, driving away.
Seeing Jimmy leave, the two at the window exchanged looks, picked up the card from where Jimmy parked, returning to the house to notify Gus.
Gus crossed the tunnel to the neighboring house, picked up Jimmy's card, expressionless as he inquired about the situation, then returned to his study.
Lately things haven't been smooth. The two Salamanca assassins sent to attack Hank were incited by him. They failed, causing Borsa behind them to doubt his actions, ultimately leading Gus to use xican special forces to eliminate them directly.
He attempted to control his own channels, stopping collaborations with the Cartel, but the Cartel leader Eladio retaliated, continuously attacking several transportation trucks. He threw Gus's blue th to Albuquerque's low-level thugs, clearly not for the goods but to compel him to return to collaborating with the organization. The chicken farm attack resulting in two casualties was their doing.
Now Jimmy Yang, the FBI agent initially tasked with monitoring the Cartel Group's Eladio and the Salamanca family, was on his trail too, and previous efforts to divert Jimmy's focus completely failed.
Gus checked his watch, calling Mike, who soon arrived at Gus's ho.
Seeing Jimmy's card in Gus's hand, Mike was equally surprised. Lately, Jimmy kept changing vehicles and plates, making tracking impossible. They clearly didn't know how much Jimmy had uncovered, but they had acquired information about Jimmy, and anyone targeted by such a person couldn't ignore it.
Mike reiterated the contents of Jimmy's file to Gus once more. Even rely reciting the file made Mike's face darken noticeably; this was undoubtedly among the toughest opponents to handle.
Gus: "Bring that guy tomorrow, we need to make a trip to xico."
Mike: "What about Jimmy? Leaving his card ans he intends to do sothing."
Gus: "I'll handle it, go notify Jesse."
Mike nodded and left Gus's house.
Gus looked at the card on the table, replaying his plan in his mind once again. The issues with xico ought to be resolved, even if now isn't the most opportune mont. If successful, handling many matters becos straightforward. If unsuccessfully, there's no need to contemplate subsequent issues.
For soone like Gus, accustod to thoroughly preparing before acting, their execution style is exceedingly careful, making it difficult to create openings without exceptional unforeseen events. Jimmy's investigation had roughly deciphered Gus and team's operational logic and plans, but couldn't legally obtain corresponding evidence, severely delaying his tiline.
As the case investigation proceeded, Jimmy increasingly missed Nia and little Liam, although he made ti daily for phone chats with them, it was surely less reassuring than face-to-face company. To swiftly resolve matters here, stimulating Gus to expose weaknesses was imperative.
