Chapter 703 New situation, CIA
FBI headquarters in Washington, a familiar office.
“Good afternoon, sir.”
Knocked on the door and walked into the office. Luo An handed a small package to Veranith and said with a smile:
"This is a specialty I brought back from Hawaii. Sir, you can have a taste. It tastes good."
The items in the package are mainly Macarani chocolate and Macarani honey. The former has a rich taste, while the latter is sweet and delicious. Both are Veranith's favorite sweets.
"Thanks."
Veranith raised the corners of her mouth slightly, smiled and took the package that Luo An handed her, carefully put it aside, and after saying a few words, she brought the topic to the point:
“Luo An, there is a case that I hope you can lead a team to handle.”
“What case?”
Luo An looked around. In the past, Veranith would hand him a folder with relevant case information written in it.
“The scope of activities of that underground businessman is mainly in other countries outside the federation, and it was not originally within the scope of our FBI’s responsibilities.
In addition, it was a joint operation by the CIA and FBI at the beginning, so this operation should be the same. "
In addition to information about CIA agents, this list also contains a lot of information about our FBI’s undercover agents working in Yomi.
The previous case of fighting on a small island in the Bahamas also had a missing list.
Hearing this, Luo An’s mouth twitched and he complained:
“…Shouldn’t the list be kept confidential? Why is it always lost?”
The success lies in the cooperation between the two parties to capture the target person, but the failure lies in the loss of a list during the operation. "
Veranith coughed lightly and introduced with a serious face:
But this time there was no folder, and Veranith had no intention or movement of rummaging through it.
This sentence was also full of flaws, but Luo An didn’t complain. He pondered for a while and asked:
“So, the goal of this case is to find that list?”
The underground businessman plans to sell this list in the near future. Our goal is to get the list back and arrest the underground businessman at the same time. "
…”
“This is a secret case.”
That operation was half a success and half a failure.
“That’s right.”
Luo An nodded, pondered for a few seconds, and then asked:
“Five months ago, our FBI and the CIA in another building conducted a joint operation.
But that list contains information about our FBI undercover agents, which involves the powers and responsibilities of our FBI.
Veranith explained:
Hearing Luo An’s complaints, Veranith’s eyes also flashed with a hint of speechlessness, she was silent for a moment and whispered:
“After that case, our FBI report showed that the loss of the list was mainly a problem and fault of the CIA.”
Veranith nodded and then introduced:
“Half a month ago, the CIA’s intelligence department received a message that the list is now in the hands of a businessman in the underground world.
“This is a joint operation between the FBI and the CIA?”
Luo An nodded, but before he could speak, Veranith's face suddenly turned stern, and she lowered her voice and said seriously:
“Luo An, because the circumstances of this case are special and it is not suitable to be publicized, there will be no large-scale action and not many people will know about it.
The CIA only sent three agents, and we at the FBI couldn't have too many agents. Three were just enough.
Luo An, you need to carefully consider the personnel arrangement. During the operation, the special investigation team will still be on administrative leave. "
Luo An narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this:
“Is there support during the operation?”
“Support is available, but you need to contact us in advance.”
“OK.”
Finally, Veranith gave an address to Luo An, where the CIA agents and FBI agents met for this operation.
Leaving the office, Luo An looked at the information on the note and fell into deep thought. There are six people in the special investigation team. Roan is the team leader, Chenille is in charge of interrogation, Lacey is in charge of intelligence, Michelle is in charge of logistics, Winslow is in charge of combat, and Mona is in charge of computers, each performing their own duties.
But only three agents could participate in this operation... Luo An narrowed his eyes slightly and was silent for a while. He took out his mobile phone and called Lacey:
“Where are you? I’m looking for you if I need something.”
——
An hour later, Lacey saw a familiar SUV next to a park in northwest Washington, D.C., and immediately crossed the street and got in:
“Sorry, I’m late.”
In the SUV, Luo An and Mona had just arrived. They turned around and saw Lacey in the back seat of the car, wiping the lip marks on her face with a wet wipe. Luo An was speechless.
Mona was very calm. She not only handed the wet wipes box to Lacey, but also pointed to the location for Lacey:
“On the left side, there is another one on the neck.”
"Thanks."
Lacie smiled and thanked her a few times, then looked at Luo An:
“What happened this time?”
“The list has been lost and we need to get it back.”
Luo An briefly described the circumstances of the case, and he finally chose himself, Mona and Lacey from the three candidates.
Mona’s computer skills are undoubted and can come in handy at critical moments.
Lacie's ability to obtain intelligence is also second to none in the special investigation team. Neither Chenelle nor Winslow can match her in this regard.
In terms of combat, Lacey is also the most suitable choice. She is not as good at fighting as Winslow. She is similar to Chenille. She can still run away even if she can't be beaten.
In addition, Luo An himself is the strongest in combat, so there is no need for someone in the team who is also good at combat. Lacey's position is just right.
After listening to Luo An’s introduction to the case, Mona frowned slightly, Lacey narrowed her eyes slightly, pondered for a few seconds, and asked in a low voice:
“Luo An, what do you think about the CIA?”
Luo An didn’t say anything, Mona was stunned for a moment:
"What's the meaning?"
"literal meaning."
Lacie smiled, spread her hands and said truthfully:
“We all understand the CIA’s style. It is normal to do one thing in front of others and another behind the scenes.
As far as I know, most joint operations between the CIA and other departments involve small actions.
The three CAI agents opposite this time will most likely not be honest people, because there is no environment for honest people to survive in the CIA. "
Luo An raised the corners of his mouth, smiled and said:
“So, we are the ones to take action this time.”
Lacie is definitely the most thoughtful person in the special investigation team. The word "sightedness" here is not a derogatory meaning, but she has keen observation and can discover many situations that others have not discovered.
Mona is not stupid and sweet, and has no shortage of brains. Only Luo An is an ordinary and honest person.
…”
Hearing Luo An’s evaluation of themselves, Mona and Lacey both rolled their eyes.
Luo An chuckled and started to start the car and go to the location on the note.
"correct."
Halfway through, Mona suddenly remembered something and asked:
“Do we have any information about the underground businessman, such as his name or photo?”
“The news came from the CIA, but they didn’t elaborate on the details.”
Luo An shook his head. The CIA only said that the list would be sold and asked the FBI to send someone to act together.
Mona and Lacey frowned when they heard this, but Luo An remained very calm:
"Don't worry, we will know the specific situation. It's just a little troublesome later, I will solve it."
Mona and Lacey understood the meaning of Luo An’s words and looked at each other without saying anything more.
An hour later, the SUV arrived at the designated place on the note at the designated time, but the three people got out of the car and found that there was no one there except them.
