Legendary FBI Detective

Chapter 696: The stars are over the moon, the case is over, it’s a holiday

 Thursday, 10:30 am, meeting room of the special investigation team.

Luo An took out a photo that was the size of a later touch-screen mobile phone and slowly pushed it in front of Veranith.

 The scene in the photo is very simple: a wooden table with two items placed on the left and right.

 The item on the left is an open notebook with some phone numbers on it, followed by some unknown times and dates.

 The item on the right is a photo. The person in the photo is very similar to the person in the White House, but he is much younger. He looks about thirty years old, and the content in the photo is... the stars are shining over the moon.

Veranith's eyelids twitched and her face changed instantly. She turned the photo over and put it upside down on the table. She glanced left and right at the people in the conference room. She looked at Luo An with a serious face and asked:

 “Has anyone seen this photo?”

Mona and Lacey were on the other side of the conference table, far away from each other. Roan shook his head and took a step forward to block Veranith's sight:

 “Just me, sir.”

Luo An smiled, sat on the chair and stretched his waist.

Anyway, the direct perpetrator of the murder of the former NSA director, Blue-Eyed Roy, has been caught by the special investigation team. The case has been solved and the credit has been earned. What to do with Sophia Norman in the future is a political matter.

 “As always, do what you have to do.”

"This case ends here. I will be responsible for the rest. Your investigation team only needs to complete the routine procedural work. Do you understand?"

Veranith gave Roan a reassuring look, carefully took the photos and some documents, turned around and quickly left the conference room under Winslow's protection.

During yesterday's operation, Mona only discovered some of the employer information in Sophia's computer that had placed orders with the "Skull Flower" organization. The photo in Veranith's hand was found by Luo An when he was sorting out the information later.

 “Is this Sophia’s trump card?”

 “Okay, sir.”

Luo An nodded and whispered:

 “Sir, be careful.”

 But seeing this photo... Luo An admitted that he was still too young and lacked imagination.

 “High probability.”

Hearing Luo An’s words and seeing his serious expression, Veranith breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and still asked seriously:

 “Luo An, let’s go next…”

Mona breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the big stone in her heart.

As for political matters, Mr. Clement is more experienced, and Luo An believes that this big man will protect him and will not treat him badly.

Michelle picked up the document and prepared to continue working. She believed in Luo An. Since Luo An was sure, there would be absolutely no problem.

The door of the conference room was closed. Mona, Michelle and Lacey looked at each other. Although they were a little curious, they all tacitly agreed not to mention the photo, but asked:

Luo An has heard in the past that when he was young, he was not doing his job properly and acted recklessly, but finally realized his enlightenment. With the hard work of making three advances and three defeats but never giving up, as well as the help of his family background and the president's father, he rose to the throne.

Knowing that the matter behind it was too involved, Luo An kept a tight grip on the photo, and no one else in the special investigation team had seen it.

Luo An nodded, and out of caution, he added:

“Only I have seen the photos, so the numbers in the book have not been investigated yet.”

Veranith stood up and looked at Luo An with a serious face:

Lacie rolled her eyes and thought for a moment, then walked around the conference table and approached Luo An, smiled and asked in a low voice:

"By the way, the platform of the "Skull Flower" killer organization was severely damaged by this incident, but those killers still exist. What should these people do?"

“Follow the FBI’s rules: integrate the killer’s information, upload it to the FBI information database, and decide whether to issue a wanted warrant based on the situation.”

 Luo An spread his hands:

“Killers and superwomen are industries that have existed since the birth of human beings. The former collects money to do harm, while the latter collects money to resist harm. Both are good at taking human lives.

This is a free and democratic federation, there is no way to completely eliminate them, just follow the rules. "

 Lacie: “…”

On the other side, Veranith quickly returned to the FBI's Washington headquarters and went straight to Mr. Clement's office.

　　After learning from the secretary that Mr. Clement was not in the office and having a meeting with the director, Veranith immediately changed her goal and went straight to the FBI director's office.

 Inside the FBI Director's office, Robert is discussing some situations with Mr. Clement.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. Before Director Robert could speak, Veranith opened the door and walked in.

FBI Director Robert frowned. Seeing that the person who came was Veranith, he looked at Mr. Clement calmly.

Mr. Clement narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew Veranith’s character and habits. He rarely saw Veranith panicked and rude, so he asked in a solemn voice:

"what happened?"

“It’s the case of the former NSA director.”

Veriness closed the door and spoke solemnly:

“This case has been solved by the leader of the special investigation team, Roan Greenwood, and the murderer and the mastermind behind the scenes have been caught.”

Director Robert's eyes suddenly lit up and his face beamed with joy. Ever since he met Luo An, Luo An had never let him down. It was indeed the right decision for him to hand over this case to Luo An.

In the eyes of Director Robert, Roan Greenwood has excellent case-handling abilities, extremely high level of investigation, good political thinking, and strong physical fitness. He is an almost perfect leader of the special investigation team.

The only shortcoming is that Roan is a member of Clement's staff, and his words and deeds have no intention or thought of changing the family.

This makes FBI Director Robert happy and helpless. He is happy because Luo An did not betray because of temptation, and loyalty is priceless; but he is helpless because loyalty also means that it is difficult for him to poach Luo An into his hands.

However, during this period, Director Robert and Mr. Clement have the same goals and are temporarily in the same camp. The issue of Roan's camp can be temporarily ignored.

 Suppressing the thoughts in his mind for the time being, Director Robert put away the smile on his face and asked:

“Now that the case has been solved, what are the remaining problems?”

Veranith didn't say anything, she just took the photo out of her bag and slowly put it on the director's desk.

  “!”

 Seeing the photo in the photo, Director Robert's pupils shrank, his brows furrowed and he turned to Veranith:

 “Where did Luo An get it? Has anyone else seen this photo?”

 After listening to Veranith's explanation of the case and the fact that only Luo An himself had seen the photo, Director Robert relaxed his brows and breathed a sigh of relief.

Mr. Clement looked at the content in the photo and fell silent. Suddenly he narrowed his eyes and said:

 "Verenis, you can leave now. The special investigation team will rest starting tomorrow."

Veranis was stunned for a moment, with a puzzled look on her face. Mr. Clement did not explain. Robert, the director next to him, blinked and continued:

“Verenis, lead the team yourself and lead the people to deal with the follow-up work of Sophia.

 Luo An and his special investigation team are temporarily on vacation, and the end of the vacation is to be determined. "

Seeing that FBI Director Robert and Mr. Clement reached a consensus so quickly, Veranith instantly understood that the vacation they mentioned was not an exile, but a kind of protection for Luo An. There were too many complications behind this matter. Let Luo An avoid this period of time first.

 “Yes, sir.”

Determined that there was no harm to Roan, Veranith nodded and left the office. Director Robert and Mr. Clement began to discuss the photo in a low voice.

On the other side, in the office of the leader of the special investigation team, Luo An and Mona were answering the phone together.
