[Comprehensive Anglo-American] A genius report on love

Chapter 23 Ex-Boyfriend

After more than ten hours of flying, accompanied and relieved by Dr. Hannibal all the way, Mia quickly came out of the short-term haze.

When she got off the plane, she had returned to the confident, cheerful and tough woman she used to be.

Hannibal also told her that he has a new medical seminar project in New York, and he may live here for a while, and they can meet again when they are free.

Before that, Mia had asked her friends in New York to find a new residence, which was not far from the FBI office building.

A small studio apartment, living room and bedroom.

And of course the requisite spacious kitchen and a large terrace with street views of Manhattan.

Mia just took a rough look at the photos of the apartment sent by her friend. The decoration and home appliances are complete, and she can really be regarded as moving in with her bags.

But when she really walked into this room, she was more or less dissatisfied with some of the decoration details.

How can I say that she will probably spend her work in the next few years here, and she still has a lot of requirements for the environment in which she lives day and night.

Mia took a good night's sleep to overcome the jet lag, and then began to pack her luggage. Some of the remaining belongings in Quantico have also been packaged and delivered.

After taking a general inventory of her own things and dissatisfied with the furnishings of the house, Mia simply made a list and put it on the table in the living room, planning to take some time to decorate her new home.

******************************************************************************

Something has been wrong with Neil Caffrey for the last few days.

About a week ago, moz always hesitated to speak when talking to himself.

At first he thought it was because of Pete's upcoming trip to Washington with Elizabeth, and Moz might be too reluctant, but then he felt that things were not that simple.

Especially this morning, today is the first day of Pete's resignation and handover. While having breakfast, Neil found that his favorite coffee beans had just been drunk, so he made a detour to buy it at the intersection in front of the FBI building. A cup of coffee, the store is not open today.

Everything unusual indicates that today may not be a pleasant day.

He had also inquired about the new FBI agent who was about to take over Pete's position before, but his colleagues in the department didn't tell him who that person was. He only occasionally heard Jones mention that it seemed to be a female agent who had intern here many years ago.

Diana didn't have much opinion on the new female boss, but Jones seemed to feel that he didn't want to be led by a woman younger than himself.

Neil walked into the FBI office building just like that,

I don’t know if it’s because he came a little late, but he was the only one waiting for the elevator on the ground floor. Just as Neil walked in and pressed the floor, a woman pushed open the glass revolving door and walked into the lobby of the office building out of the corner of his eye. .

He was only dressed in a fairly standard professional suit, but his figure was remarkable. His long light brown hair was his favorite style. Neil deliberately blocked the elevator door for a gentleman.

"Mia?! Why are you?"

When the woman approached, Neil finally saw clearly the face covered by the black-rimmed glasses, and he couldn't believe what he saw.

He thought that he would never have the chance to see this woman again in his life. At that time, he thought that something happened to her in Mexico, so he did everything possible to find out about her. Later, he heard that she had left Mexico safely.He also tried to contact her in various ways, including deliberately taking away the diary she had always wanted, but he never heard from her again.

It was not until a long time later that he met Alex that he finally stopped the idea of ​​continuing to look for her.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Compared to Neil's surprise, Mia was already prepared to see him again, although she didn't expect to meet him in the elevator earlier.

"How have you been all these years?"

In fact, Neil has been unable to guess the real reason why they separated over the years. She even changed her name and surname later, making it impossible to trace, so that this man, who has always been confident and charming in front of women, stands at In front of Mia, she seemed a little cautious.

"Oh sure, that's fine, how about you?"

"Well, it's not bad!".If one ignores his status as a criminal under the supervision of the FBI, Neil subconsciously looked at his left foot when he replied, "What's the matter with you here?"

"It should be a matter of work!"

"I'm... working here now." Neil expressed his current status euphemistically, "If you need my help with anything, just ask."

"Help? No, I don't think it will be necessary." Mia temporarily retained her identity, or in her heart, she would rather see Neil know in front of everyone that she will be his new supervisor surprised expression.

"So..." Neil wanted to say something more, and he suddenly realized the reason why moz is abnormal these days.

However, the elevator had reached the floor by this time.

Today was Pete's last day in the elite crime team. Except for Neil, who was a little late to buy coffee, almost everyone else in the team was already there.

Neil walked in and greeted them warmly, but it took a few seconds for him to realize that something was wrong. The smiling expressions of the colleagues in the group seemed to be for Mia who walked in behind him.

"Hi girl, you're finally back."

The first person to go to meet her was Pete, still smiling so kindly, he gave Mia a big hug.

"Thank you. Pete, I miss you too." Mia began to greet her familiar old colleagues.

"Diana, I heard that you already have a lovely baby, and you must bring it to me some day."

"Jones, you seem to be strong again..."

Finally, Hughes, the leader of the team, came out from behind the large glass wall. Compared with a few years ago, he had more wrinkles. He came over and shook Mia's hand, "Welcome back, Agent Mia .”

Neil, who was always in a state of astonishment, finally regained his composure at this moment.

……

The girl who has been by my side since the age of 16, learning various techniques of forgery, stealing, etc. under his guidance...

Maybe it's time to call it a woman.

She turned out to be the FBI agent who was about to take over Pete's position and become his new supervisor.

This is simply a great irony!

What could be more frustrating than the fact that your ex-girlfriend has become your boss and you can't quit your job?

"Neil!" Pete called out to Neil, who had been in the statue, "Come here and let me introduce your new supervisor to you."

"Hello, Neil Caffrey. Hope to have a good cooperation in the future." Neil walked over and put on his usual signature smile.

His blue and bright eyes are still so eye-catching, although they are more mature than the man in Mia's memory.

"Hi, Mia Malachi. Nice to work with you."

Such a short and ordinary introduction seems to have a different taste in Pete's eyes.

Of course, he didn't ignore the eyes they met when they shook hands, and he also noticed Neil's shock when Mia walked in, which was not the state that strangers should have when they met for the first time.

There seems to be some unknown relationship between Neil and Mia.

In fact, there are no flaws in Mia's resume. Her parents were unknown since she was a child. She was picked up at the gate of an orphanage, and then adopted by a couple named Malachi. Her adoptive parents died unexpectedly in high school. After arriving in the United States, he studied in the Department of Psychology of a well-known university...

Except for the years when I left the United States, other materials are all documented.

Pete's intuition told him that maybe they were more than just old acquaintances, and he should pay more attention.

The following time is just some routine handover procedures.

In the office, Pete probably told Mia about the changes in case handling in the group over the past few years, the new colleagues, some unfinished cases, and most importantly - the precautions for supervising Neil.

A thick dictionary-like file belonging to Neil Caffrey was placed on Mia's desk.

This is the homework that Mia must master in the next few days. Only by getting to know him thoroughly can he become his supervisor better. This is Pete's suggestion to Mia.

Of course, in her heart, Mia believed that she knew no less about this man than Pete.

Neil, who was sitting at his desk, was restless this morning, although he believed that Mia would not casually reveal her past relationship with him. On the contrary, if Mia became his supervisor, to some extent, Said that maybe there will be a higher degree of freedom than when getting along with Pete.

Of course, the premise of all this is that he must figure out why Mia broke up with him and became an FBI.

"Hi, may I ask... can someone help me?"

Neil was paying close attention to the movement in the upstairs office when a young woman came to the door, her expression was tense and somewhat helpless.

"Of course." Neil was the first to greet him with a smile, displaying his unique charm for women, "Have you encountered any trouble?"

"Yes, I... I wanted to report it, but the police said they couldn't do it, so I thought... would you guys..."

"Of course." Neil led the woman all the way into the conference room, "You should relax a bit, I'll let our leader come over and have a chat with you."
