Ruiz was a bit surprised when he heard the news. When Jimmy had contacted him to find Serra, he had thought it was just the investigation phase. How had things suddenly been settled?
Fortunately, the mole had been caught, Azte's people had been dealt with, and the case of the attack on Jimmy had come to a close. The next step was to gather evidence and charge them.
Hughes wasn't as relaxed as Ruiz; he had contacted the intermediary Thomas during the day, but Thomas hadn't replied to him all day.
Previously, Thomas had agreed to move the mole, but now that the mole had been captured on his own, he hadn't yet taken action, giving Hughes a sense of foreboding.
Thomas had mentioned that it was Josh from Congressman Blair's camp who had asked him to meet with Hughes. Maybe this lead was worth investigating.
Dealing with a state congressman wasn't easy; the FBI certainly could do a lot, but without direct evidence at hand, linking the backstage players was not going to be easy.
