Chapter 789 Discussion on Psychological Pressure

Jack drank the delicious fish soup in one gulp and stood up to clean up the table. "Policemen usually don't have sudden mental breakdowns. Jiejie will contact the Newark Police Department tomorrow morning to inquire about Gabriel's performance during the internship, focusing on understanding the reasons why he failed the internship.

Maybe they found some kind of character flaw in him, or that he was lacking in coping with stress, so they sent him to the small town police station."

"OK." Jubal clapped his hands to signal the end. "We will leave for New Jersey tomorrow morning. As usual, arrange your life and family."

"We have old rules so soon?" Single dog Aubrey complained in a low voice, and stood up to slip away, but was grabbed back by Jack.

"Don't try to run away, stay and help me clean up the dishes."

"I provided a tuna that was enough for all of us to eat for a week for free." Aubrey was indignant while helping to collect the bowls.

Jack sighed, "Have you ever seen a chef who needs to wash dishes himself?"

It's not that he doesn't want to be lazy, it's just that Hannah, a rich woman, is very lavish and has bought a whole set of British bone china tableware. These high-end goods with glaze and gold edges will be unrecognizable after a few times in the dishwasher, and even when washing by hand, you have to be as careful as possible to avoid bumps.

If it weren't for these beautiful porcelain plates that can really greatly improve the appearance of the dishes, Jack would have planned to purchase a set of ordinary dinner plates again. After the rebirth of those protagonists, they are either luxury cars, beautiful women, or the best of the best. When it's his turn, he has to cook and wash dishes.

Of course, this is just a joke. Everyone has their own way to relieve their psychology, whether it's enjoying family affection with relatives, indulging in games to release pressure, or sailing out to sea to have a party with graceful models, or even squatting in the vegetable garden alone to pickle preserved eggs with mud. The methods are different, but the purpose is the same.

Only by enjoying life and releasing the pressure accumulated in daily life can the often tense string in the heart be relaxed.

Policemen all over the world are similar, especially those who specialize in handling criminal cases, because they often come into contact with the dark side of society, and the psychological pressure is extremely great. Just look at the increasingly sparse head of Detective Danny Reagan.

This is why Jubal told Jack before that if it is not a mandatory task assigned by the higher-ups, they should only take the initiative to accept one wanted order a month.

The previous pair of desperate lovers truly demonstrated what is extremely pure evil. Although there are reasons for the incident, which can be attributed to the original family and other fucked-up reasons, the victims are all truly innocent people.

But even when facing Ronnie's mother, the real "culprit", Jack can't have any murderous intentions. At most, he can only despise and pity her, despise her extreme selfishness and irresponsibility, and pity her ignorance and self-degradation.

In the foreseeable future, the people in the wanted criminal team will be exposed to more and more such cases. Maybe they don't have to deal with so many psychopathic serial killers like the BAU team, or they are not as trivial as the cases that Detective Danny Reagan encounters on a daily basis, but everyone's mental health needs to be treated with caution.

Jack didn't want his former colleagues or old acquaintances to appear among the wanted criminals he had to arrest personally many years later.

The next morning, Jubal drove the command car to take everyone on the road, because New Jersey was next door and, like Connecticut, which was close to New York, was included in the Greater New York City.

So Jack drove his Dodge Hellcat as usual, and Clay drove a GMC behind him, so that they could act separately when they got to the place. This time they didn't need to borrow another car from the Newark office.

After arriving in Jersey City through the Holland Tunnel from Manhattan Island, Newark continued to the west, and Morristown, their destination today, was further west.

The communication process between Jiejie and the Newark Police Department, where Gabriel had interned, was not smooth. The other party's attitude was quite reluctant and even made excuses, and it seemed that they didn't want to be associated with the murderer of the police.

But after all, this was the FBI, and at Jiejie's repeated request, they still agreed to meet with this Inspector Perroni tomorrow morning.

The joke among the crowd was that this police inspector was more impressive than NYPD Chief Reagan, at least Jack never needed to make an appointment in advance to go to the latter's office.

Halfway through, the problem baby Clay finally couldn't help but ask a question on the intercom system, "Why did you say yesterday that police officers are not prone to mental breakdown? I always thought that police officers are similar to soldiers and are prone to psychological problems."

"I don't know how the army deals with the psychological problems of soldiers caused by the battlefield environment, but when you were in Quantico, you should have received relevant training and tests."

Jack explained, "What I meant before is that police officers usually don't suddenly have symptoms of mental breakdown like soldiers. Most police unions have a series of special training to teach police officers how to self-assess their psychology.

And because of the different types of pressure they face, in most cases, the mental pressure of police officers will gradually accumulate as their working hours increase, and sometimes it will turn into depression, and anger will turn inward, leading to suicide.

Or anger will turn outward and vent to the public, such as excessive or violent law enforcement, but there must be a process during this period, and in this process, there must be obvious signs, which is what we are looking for now."

Jubal, who was also on the intercom, further explained, "We are chasing a policeman, one of the opponents we are most reluctant to face in the pursuit, because he knows how to catch criminals just like us, which means he also knows how to cover his tracks.

To be honest, the reason you found before is not bad. Our opponent this time may be really powerful."

Before Jubal finished speaking, the girls' giggles came from the channel.

Clay seemed not to notice, and he was concentrating on discussing the case. After all, they were chatting in the communication channel, and no one could see his flushed face.

"So my understanding is that this time we can't chase the clues at the crime scene like before, but we have to figure out his motives through the signs that Jack said, and then we can predict his next step."

"Yes, remember one thing, he may not be as powerful as us, but because of his profession, any evidence he left on the way to escape may be intentional, with the purpose of misleading our sight." Jubal reminded.

Clay had the attitude of a good student who is worthy of being taught. "OK, I understand. However, he may be good at forging evidence, but he certainly cannot be good at psychology at the same time.

So we only need to ask his colleagues or friends around him about the situation, and perhaps we can find the fuse that led to his collapse and figure out his motives."

——

"Gabriel has never opened his heart to anyone in the Morristown Police Department, including me as his partner, and I have never heard of any close friends he has."

When a tall and thin black police officer said this to the FBI, Clay's expression collapsed visibly.

"Remember what I said before. When the three days are up, no matter whether the case can be closed or not, you have to go back to New York to accompany Stella." Jubal certainly knew what he was thinking and reminded him with a smile.
