Investigation Team No. 5, office area.
At this time, Ryder went to the bank to collect evidence, while Lacey, William and others were sitting on chairs sorting out the details of the case.
Mona, who was sitting at her workstation, appeared to be sitting on a chair sorting documents, but in fact she had been paying close attention to the conference room not far away.
During this period, Lacey encountered a problem and wanted to ask Mona for help. However, seeing the expression on Mona's face and the several signature pens on the ground that were accidentally broken in half by Mona, Lacey's mouth twitched, and she finally chose to turn around. Go find William.
Luo An didn't know what was happening outside the conference room. At this time, he was looking at the items handed to him by Veranith.
When she was pulled into the conference room just now, Veranis praised Luo An a few times, then she took out a business card and an invitation letter from her pocket and handed them to Luo An.
The style of business cards and invitations is very simple, and the color is also unremarkable earth gray.
However, the person who handed it to him was Veranith after all, so the earthy gray business card and invitation instantly gave Luo An a low-key, luxurious and connotative feeling.
Luo An raised his eyebrows and asked:
"Sir, what is this?"
"This is an invitation to a party."
Veranith opened the invitation. The location inside was at a well-known hotel in Manhattan, New York. She explained:
"The time is Saturday this week, and most of the leaders of the FBI New York Division will attend."
Luo An was promoted to deputy leader of Investigation Team No. 5 at this time, and he also stepped into this threshold with one foot.
Coupled with Luo An's outstanding performance during this period and Veranith's unremitting recommendation, the person in charge of the party also sent this invitation letter to Luo An.
"Thank you, sir."
Luo An suddenly realized that it seemed that Veranith was starting to help him expand his contacts.
"Good."
After Luo An put away the business card and invitation, Veranith began to turn the topic to the case of the murder of the agent.
After learning that there were some problems in Angelique's private life, but after being locked away by Luo An, Veranith nodded with great satisfaction and said that after the case was completely resolved, she would personally explain the situation to Angelique's husband Tom.
"Thank you, sir."
Luo An smiled and said a few words. As men, he really didn't want to tell Tom personally about this kind of thing.
Not long after, Ryder returned to Investigation Team 5 with several notebooks. Not only did they contain transaction records between Early and Bevin Hayman, but there was even a secret photo of Early hidden in the middle of one of the notebooks. chat video.
"Well done, Ryder!"
After reading the content in the video, Team Leaders Veranis and Linden were all smiles, and Augustus even waved his hand:
"All agents, set off immediately and bring Bevin Hyman to our No. 5 Investigation Team for a chat!"
"no problem!"
As soon as the words fell, the agents of Investigation Team No. 5 made a loud promise. Luo An, Ryder, Mona, and Lacey quickly walked into the equipment room, while William and other agents ran back to their seats to provide remote support.
The process of arresting Bevin Hyman was very smooth. After arriving at the construction company, Luo An casually used a "Suspicious Activity Report on Financial Status in Form SB41-38-250" to trick Bevin Hyman into No. 5. Investigation team.
Then, when there was physical evidence, that is, video + notes, there were witnesses, and Early was willing to testify in court, Bevin Hyman was sent to the awaiting trial prison by Investigation Team No. 5 before he could react.
Bevin-Hyman then hurriedly started spending a lot of money to hire a lawyer. However, the federal Department of Homeland Security would not provide help in times of need, but they are very good at adding insult to injury.
Finally having the opportunity to put Bevin Hyman in jail, the federal Department of Homeland Security immediately mobilized its agents and began to search for evidence while Bevin Hyman's men and company did not react. Finally, Bevin Hyman was arrested. Vin-Hyman kicked perfectly and went to jail.
During this period, the IRS group also jumped out to take a share of the pie. With the existence of the IRS group of vampires, Bevin Hayman's chance of struggling was completely ended.
However, these latter things had nothing to do with Luo An. After the interrogation was completed and Bevin Hyman was sent to prison, Luo An stood at the front of the No. 5 Investigation Team office area, raised his hands and shouted:
"Everyone! Look at me, look at me! I have an announcement!"
"???"
All the detectives raised their heads in confusion. Luo An put his hand to his mouth, coughed lightly, and said with a smile:
"I was promoted to deputy team leader. I'm going to treat you tonight. You choose the place!"
Treating guests for promotion is an old tradition within the FBI. However, a new case occurred on the day Luo An was notified of his promotion and appointment, so the matter of treating guests to dinner was forced to be postponed to today.
After Luo An finished speaking, all the agents who remembered this matter suddenly realized, and then they all straightened up and cheered:
"Thank you, Deputy Team Leader Luo An!"
"Good suggestion!"
"I absolutely agree!"
"I agree too! It just so happens that I haven't had time to have lunch yet!"
"Me too, me too!"
All the technical agents cheered, and Augustus patted his big belly and said with a smile:
"We have just solved the [murder case of a female detective] under the leadership of Luo An. Today is indeed a good day and we should have a good drink!"
Ryder, grinning, raised his hand:
"I know a great barbecue restaurant in Manhattan. How about going there tonight?"
Before Luo An could speak, Lacey and Mona shook their heads and loudly refused:
"NO! No barbecue restaurant!"
Everyone just attended a barbecue party at Ryder's house last weekend. Mona and Lacey really don't want to eat barbecue anymore in the short term.
Ryder's face froze slightly, and then he spread his hands:
"Then what do you want to eat?"
Mona: "Seafood!"
Lacey: “French food!”
Other agents: "..."
Seeing the sparks in Mona and Lacey's eyes, the air in the office area was quiet for a few seconds, and then instantly exploded over what should be eaten at night.
Luo An himself sat back in his chair with a smile and took a sip of coffee very calmly.
He still had hundreds of thousands of dollars in his pocket, just one meal, a small problem.
After a while, after a heated discussion, the agents finally chose a restaurant not far from the Jacobs Federal Building.
This restaurant not only offers barbecue, seafood and French cuisine, but also other specialties. The agents used to go there frequently. It is a restaurant that FBI agents often go to for parties.
Moreover, the price is not very expensive, and the agents still consider Luo An's wallet.
That night, after get off work.
"Cheers!"
"cheers!"
"Greetings to Deputy Team Leader Luo An!"
"Thanks."
Luo An smiled and picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
Augustus put down his wine glass and wiped his mouth, then patted Luo An's arm hard:
"To be honest, Luo An, recruiting you to Investigation Team No. 5 is the most damn correct thing I have done in these years!"
After leaving the Jacobs Federal Building, August would often come up with some not-so-clean modalities.
Luo An didn't care, picked up the wine bottle, filled it for August and himself, and replied with a smile:
"Joining the No. 5 Investigation Team was the most correct choice I made."
This is Luo An's innermost thoughts. Except for Investigation Team No. 5, the leaders of the other thirteen investigation teams may not necessarily give him such wide authority when solving cases.
Moreover, the agents in the team may not be as cooperative as the agents of the No. 5 Investigation Team, and the atmosphere may not be as good. Maybe in addition to solving cases, they may also have to fight each other every day.
"Hahaha……"
Hearing Luo An's words, the smile on August's face became even brighter. After draining the wine in the glass again, he stood up and joined Ryder. Without eating a morsel of food, he directly invited Luo An to pick up the bottle and blow on each other.
Luo An: "..."
