After 20 minutes, Tony walked over to Cole and pointed again back at all the monitors. “This is because of you, Cole. Your guy David is a big deal, and we’re now networked into the inner workings of a major cartel. Our aircraft are on top of every one of his boats right now.”
Cole asked, “So you’re going to bust them?”
Tony shook his head, saying, “No, not all of them. We don’t want to tip David off just yet that we’re on to him. We’ll make it hurt, but he’d ditch the phone if we blew our cover like that. For now, we’re just watching, trying to learn his movements.”
“So why not just shut him down now?”
“This is the big leagues, Cole. We play for keeps and we aim for the top. David’s not the top.”
Cole was quiet for a moment, before asking, “So you willingly let drugs slip through?”
