Lacey stood up and took out a Mexican enchilada from her pocket:
"Thank you, this is my favorite."
"Wow, I didn't expect you to have such a strong taste."
Roan teased Lacey casually, then took out a portion of Mona's favorite "steak, egg and cheese boat" and handed it to Mona. Finally, he handed the bag to Ryder and asked him to distribute it to the other agents.
Ryder, who took the bag, grinned when he saw that there was also his favorite "Curry Chicken Pancake" in the bag.
Soon, the snacks in the packages were distributed, and the No. 5 Investigation Team office area was filled with the aroma of food.
Of course, Luo An didn't forget Augustus. After laughing and chatting with Mona for a while, he got up and walked into the team leader's office with a "super thickened beef burger".
"Thanks."
Taking the food from Luo An's hand, August's big black face was full of smiles.
"By the way, Luo An, you came just in time."
But August did not rush to bite the burger, but handed the two folders to Luo An.
Sitting on a chair and opening the folder, as he expected, inside was the bonus issued by Investigation Team No. 5 this weekend, as well as proof that Luo An's own bonus had been doubled.
The others received a bonus of US$1,500 each, and Luo An received a bonus of US$3,000.
"Thank you, sir."
Luo An chuckled, because after just buying the stock, he only had a "mere" US$150,000 in hand, which made him feel very uncomfortable because he had always been insecure.
"You're welcome."
After taking a big bite of the burger, Augustus waved his hand, then asked vaguely about the details of several cases, then quickly wiped his hands and said:
"Roan, you handled this case very well. When I went to the Office of the Special Agent in Charge yesterday, Corbett was also very happy and praised you loudly."
"..."
Seeing August finish the thickened burger that was bigger than his face in just a few bites, Luo An's eyes showed surprise.
However, after hearing Augustus' words, Luo An still smiled and answered a few words. After the two briefly chatted for a while, Luo An got up and left the team leader's office.
Returning to his seat, Luo An pressed the computer power button and waited for the screen to slowly spin in circles before opening the system page in his mind.
The system's evaluation for Luo An was still "Excellent". After a rough treasure chest opening animation, four bottles of potions appeared.
Seeing the names of these four bottles of potions, Luo An raised his eyebrows, because these four bottles of potions were not the [Stamina Potion] or [Strength Potion] that had been prescribed in the past few days.
But the [Sensitive Potion], [Danger Sensing Potion] and [Sleeping Potion] have not appeared for a long time.
In addition, there is a bottle of [Tracking Potion] that Luo An has never seen before. It is the first time that the system treasure chest has been opened.
At this time, in the system warehouse column in Luo An's mind, there was
【Hemostatic Medicine×4】
[Stamina Potion×2]
[Antidote Potion×2]
【Strength Potion×1】
[Sensitive drug × 1]
[Sleep Potion × 1]
[Danger Sensing Potion×1]
[Featherfall Potion×1]
[Tracking Potion×1]
【Weakness Potion×1】
[Scuba Potion×1]
[Analgesic medicine × 1]
In addition, there are also a $50 bill and a $100 bill issued by the system a few days ago.
Looking at the new bottle of potion in his mind, Luo An frowned slightly.
As time passed, Luo An discovered that there were two types of medicines released from the system treasure box.
One of them is [Stamina Potion] and [Strength Potion]. When drank, the ability will burst out immediately. After time passes, most of the ability will disappear, but a small part of the ability will remain in Luo An's body permanently.
The other type is [Featherfall Potion] and [Fire Resistance Potion], which are one-time potions. When you drink them, the effect will burst, and after time passes, the ability will disappear completely.
"So, is this [Tracking Potion] a one-time use, or is a small part left permanently?"
Luo An's eyes were empty and he was meditating quietly. At this moment, Mona, who had finally finished eating the "steak, egg and cheese boat", wiped her hands and turned around to come over:
"Luo An, can you do me a favor?"
"Um?"
Hearing this, Luo An threw the tracking potion behind his head, turned around and asked with a smile:
"What's the deal?"
"Help move some things."
Mona shrugged and said that she bought the small apartment in Dudu and had it renovated, so she planned to move out of the No. 5 Investigation Team after get off work today.
It's just that she has a lot of things, and I'm afraid I won't be able to get them back by myself.
"OK."
It was just a trivial matter, Luo An immediately nodded and agreed.
Then at off-duty time, after all the other agents of Investigation Team 5 left, Luo An looked at the six big boxes in front of him and fell into deep thought.
Mona on the side saw this and her face turned slightly red.
She really didn't realize that during this period of time, she actually brought so many things to the No. 5 Investigation Team.
Don't ask, just ask, it's a woman.
More than an hour later, Luo An put the last big box into the living room of Mona's apartment, and then sat down on the sofa in the living room.
"Gulu..."
Luo An's stomach growled loudly, and Luo An was so hungry that his chest pressed against his back.
"Let's stay and eat together."
Mona, who was packing her things, immediately walked to the kitchen when she saw this and took out a large steak and a dozen oysters from the refrigerator, saying that she bought them during a discount at the supermarket nearby.
Mona and Luo An can both cook, and with their cooperation, the table next to them was quickly filled with food.
After setting the tableware, Luo An opened a bottle of red wine and the two started dinner.
Picking up the wine glass and clinking it with Mona, Luo An tasted the steak that Mona cooked and his eyes lit up:
"very delicious."
"Thanks."
Mona put down her wine glass and said with a smile:
“This is how my mom taught me how to make it.”
"Your mother?"
After swallowing the food in his mouth, Luo An hesitated and tentatively asked Mona about her family situation.
Luo An knew that Mona's father worked in the CIA and his status was not low, but as for her mother...
Luo An only knew that when Mona filled out the information, she wrote that her mother had died.
"my mother……"
Hearing Luo An's question, Mona bit down hard on the steak in her mouth, and her eyes turned red under the influence of alcohol.
After a long silence, Mona calmed down her emotions and whispered:
"My father was a CIA when he was young. He was away from home all year round and would only transfer money to my mother's bank card. There is no trace of him in my memory from childhood to adulthood.
Later, my mother was hospitalized for cancer, and he never came back to visit her until her death.
It wasn't until I was in college that he showed up to meet me one night and handed me a bank card and a phone number..."
After listening to Mona's narration, Luo An took out a piece of paper and handed it to the other party:
"Sorry."
"no need to say sorry."
Mona shook her head, picked up the red wine on the table and drank it in one gulp.
Soon, the two finished their dinner. The afterglow of the sunset reflected into the room through the glass, and the entire living room and kitchen were rendered golden.
Mona stood in front of the window and looked into the distance. After putting away the dishes, Luo An walked up behind her and hugged her in his arms.
Mona just struggled slightly.
A moment later, as the sun set, Luo An lowered his head and kissed her.

Good times are always short-lived. The next morning, Luo An slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing Mona eating Luo's delicate body next to him, Luo An smiled and kissed her on the face, then got up and made breakfast.
I exercised for a long time last night and those steaks have been digested.
After carrying breakfast and walking back to the bedroom to wake up Mona, Luo An reached out and played with her for a while while she was getting dressed, causing Mona to cry out.
More than half an hour later, Luo An drove Mona to the No. 5 investigation team.
