"Sorry, Ryder."
After hanging up the phone, Luo An tilted his head and gave Ryder an apologetic look, shaking the phone:
"I'm afraid I can't do it tonight. I have something to do. How about next time? I will definitely go next time!"
"OK!"
Ryder didn't care. He grinned and began to dance and discuss throwing techniques with Roan.
Seeing that Luo An could easily fly business cards, photos, and pens into folders, after Ryder yelled, he repeatedly begged Luo An to teach him this trick.
"Why?"
Luo An agreed, but still didn't understand.
Ryder is already married, and he has never heard from Lacey that Ryder likes to go out and have fun behind his wife's back. Why should he learn this thing that is seemingly used to pick up girls.
And if you want to use it in actual combat, it won't be possible for a year and a half. If you have this skill, it's better to shoot more guns and practice your marksmanship.
Hearing Luo An's question, Ryder's face froze. He looked back at Lacey, who was sleeping on the table, and Mona, who was competing with the computer again. Seeing that neither of them paid any attention, he whispered to Luo An. Said in the ear:
"My wife's favorite thing to do every weekend is to play games with me. Apart from fighting, she is no match for me, and I can't beat her with marksmanship or anything else, so I want to practice my throwing skills and beat her again!"
"Um, I'd like to ask, where is your wife from?"
"Texas!"
"..."
Turning his head and glancing at Ryder, whose face was red and his eyes were full of hope, Luo An fell silent for a moment.
I remembered that ever since I joined Investigation Team No. 5, I had seen Ryder lying at the back of the office area doing push-ups when he had no work assignments.
I thought Ryder was doing it to build muscle mass and stay in shape.
Now it seems that Ryder lost the game and his wife wouldn't let him go to bed, so his energy couldn't be released, so he had to do push-ups every day.
A man's life after marriage.
Luo An shook his head in his heart, raised his hand and patted Ryder's shoulder heavily, his face full of solemnity:
"Don't worry, Ryder. I'll teach you a quick method later. It's still a bit difficult to kill the enemy, but you can't lose to who can throw the object farther and who can do more damage than the one who throws the object!"
Ryder's lips trembled with excitement:
"Luo An! From today on, you will be my good brother for life!"
Luo An: "..."
What does this force a man to do?
After continuing to chat with Ryder for a while, the time soon reached 5:30 in the afternoon, which is when the FBI got off work.
"See you tomorrow, Luo An!"
"See you tomorrow!"
After saying hello to a few agents, Roan walked to the parking lot with Mona, Ryder, and Lacey chatting and laughing, and then discovered that his car was missing!
"Wait a minute, Roan."
Seeing the shocked expression on Luo An's face, Lacey was speechless. Finally, Mona said:
"Luo An, the car you drove these two days was our No. 5 Investigation Team's bus, not your own car. There is no mission today, so the bus was naturally collected and cleaned by Augustus."
"..."
I also want to never buy a car in my life and spend the rest of my life buying an FBI SUV!
Luo An rolled his eyes, looked down upon the stingy August, refused Ryder's invitation, turned around and got into the passenger seat of Lacey's car.
"Take me to the Fire Queen bar, thank you."
"you sure?"
Seeing Lacey's frowning expression, Luo An was stunned and asked doubtfully:
"What, is something wrong?"
"Lidya asked you to go?"
"That's right."
After hearing Luo An's words, Lacey took a deep breath, turned around and said to him seriously:
"Luo An, let me give you a suggestion as a friend and teammate. You'd better not maintain a long-term relationship with Lidya, okay?"
Seeing the serious expression on Lacey's face, Luo An's heart suddenly sank. He didn't pick up the Glock 18 in the weapons arsenal after get off work today. If Lydia was planning something evil against him... or else... Will you buy a gun first?
Seeing that Luo An was listening to her words carefully, Lacey breathed a sigh of relief and continued to explain:
"Lydia is a 30-year-old woman this year, but she has been married 4 times. The times were when Lydia was 22, 24, 26, and 28 years old. After each marriage, her husband would be married within a year. die.
After her husband dies, she will not have sex with anyone until she finds her next husband. "
"W T F?"
Luo An's hair stood on end and his scalp exploded:
“You mean, Lydia used marriage to obtain her husband’s property, and then killed her husband after the marriage!
...a black widow? "
Luo An had never heard of this kind of thing in his previous life. For money, those women were more unscrupulous than men, and marriage was one of them.
Hearing Luo An's words, Lacey was stunned, but quickly shook her head and said:
"No, Lydia did not acquire property by killing her husband. On the contrary, after each husband's death, Lydia's own property will drop a lot.
At the age of 22, Lydia inherited a chain of bars from her father. However, after the death of several husbands, she spent a large amount of money to appease her husband's parents. Until now, she only has one bar chain left. 'Queen of Fire'. "
"Um?"
Luo An was stunned when he heard Lacey's words. Could it be that Lydia was the one being targeted?
But that’s not right. Those husbands all died and they didn’t spend the money they got. How can you be so selfless for your family?
"It has nothing to do with money, Luo An."
Thinking of what Luo An said just now and seeing the expression on Luo An's face, Lacey guessed what he was thinking, so she shook her head and said:
"It's Lidya's own problem."
Taking a deep breath, Luo An became interested in this matter:
"Please elaborate."
"After the deaths of several husbands, we at the FBI also suspected that Lydia had poisoned her husband, so without Lydia's knowledge, we signed a private agreement with her husband's family to conduct autopsies on her husbands. .”
At this point, Lacey's face looked a little unnatural, but she continued after taking a deep breath:
"After forensic examination, there were no toxins in the bodies of those husbands, and there were no signs of abuse or beating. The cause of death was also very simple - semen bleeding from the lower body, kidney failure, and the heart suddenly stopped during strenuous exercise. Jumped, too late to save, and died suddenly."
Luo An: "..."
In other words, these husbands overindulged in sex and died of exhaustion in bed?
At this moment, Luo An suddenly remembered his hideous face when he got up this afternoon, as well as his sore lower back... and was horrified.
Yes, he noticed just now that Roan Greenwood had played games with women before, and his body had never felt so painful.
Moreover, he does not lack exercise on weekdays, so it stands to reason that he cannot be so weak.
The reason for the soreness in the lower back was obviously not him, but Lidya.
"So, Luo An, I hope you won't go to Lydia."
Seeing Luo An lowering his head in deep thought, his face suddenly brightening and darkening, Lacey breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:
"Beautiful girls are everywhere in New York. At worst, I'll give you a few more business cards tonight."
"No, I'm going to find Lydia."
After pondering for a while, Luo An looked at the system page and had some ideas in his mind. Then with a flash of light in his eyes, he rejected Lacey's kindness and said decisively:
"I want to find out the truth about this matter."
It was obvious that this time Lydia came for her.
No matter what the opponent's purpose is, fleeing without a fight is not a good strategy.
