The atmosphere at the No. 5 Investigation Team dinner that night was very lively, attracting frequent glances from many other FBI agents who came here to eat.
However, due to the customs and habits of the Federation, no one came up for a toast out of nowhere. Several agents from other departments just came up to say hello to Luo An and Augustus after the No. 5 Investigation Team had finished their meal, to show their familiarity. .
At this time, Luo An, the 25-year-old deputy team leader, had an extraordinary reputation in the Jacobs Federal Building.
Luo socialized with the visitors for a while with a smile on his face, and then took a taxi to send all the agents back to their respective homes.
That doesn't include Lacey.
When everyone was eating together, Lacey hooked up with a waitress in a restaurant. After everyone finished eating, Lacey took the lead with the waitress with a cheerful face.
Roan and Mona took a taxi back to her small apartment. Mona was extra indulgent tonight because of alcohol.
At two o'clock in the morning, Mona finally fell asleep, and Luo An slowly walked into the bathroom, holding his waist.
"Fortunately, I have the blessing of physical potions and toys, otherwise...
Damn it, what does God think here in the West? Why is there such a big difference in the physiology of men and women? "
At this time, Luo An finally had a deeper understanding of the old Eastern saying about old cows and fields.
Luo An let out a long breath and opened the system page in his mind while washing himself and muttering in a low voice.
The light blue system rated Luo An as "Excellent" for the past two days. After a rough treasure chest opening animation, eight bottles of potions appeared.
Among them [Stamina Potion x3]
[Swift Potion x3]
[Analgesic Medicine x1]
[Sleep Potion x1]
After the animation ended, Luo An immediately took out a bottle of stamina potion and drank it without hesitation.
The next second, with full strength and energy, Luo An looked at the sleeping body on the big bed, his eyes filled with disdain again.
"Humph, it's just a Mona, you really overestimate your capabilities!"
system:"……"
————
The next morning, Investigation Team No. 5.
At the workstation, technical agents such as Ryder and William were busy with their heads down, but they were all in low spirits because of yesterday's party.
While Lacey was busy working, she was distracted. Sometimes she didn't know what she was thinking of, and she even covered her mouth and smiled shyly.
Next to her, Mona was busy working, her eyelids were twitching and she kept kowtowing. At the same time, her limbs were a little weak and occasionally twitched.
Luo An was sitting on a chair, drinking coffee and running around in circles, occasionally typing on the keyboard, and frantically greeting a certain member of the forum.
August: "..."
Seeing the state of the agents in the office area, Augustus was speechless. He put his hands on his hips and was about to say something loudly when a feeling of sleepiness suddenly came over him. He subconsciously covered his mouth and yawned.
Luo An saw this scene:
(ー`ー)
"Ahem."
Seeing the expression on Luo An's face, Augustus coughed twice in embarrassment, and then said loudly:
"Luo An, come to my office!"
"Okay, sir."
In the team leader's office, Augustus handed over a document as usual, and Luo An opened it with a smile as usual.
As expected, as usual, inside the folder was a copy of the case-solving bonus issued by Investigation Team No. 5 this week, as well as proof that Luo An's own bonus was doubled.
However, one thing is different: because the deceased in this case was an internal FBI agent, and the case was relatively important and serious, the reward issued by the superiors was larger than before, from US$1,500 to US$2,000.
This also means that Luo An’s bonus doubled from US$3,000 to US$4,000.
Thinking of this, Luo An's smile became even brighter:
"Thank you, sir!"
Augustus waved his hands without saying anything. He picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip. He handed Luo An a folder again and said:
"This is a follow-up to that IRS case."
"IRS?"
Luo An was stunned for a moment, then opened the folder and realized that it turned out that August was talking about the [CFO kidnapping case]
As mentioned before, the internal work of the IRS pursues high turnover and high efficiency.
What is the truth of the case? unimportant.
Was the suspect wrongfully accused? unimportant.
They have only one goal, and that is to open and close the case as quickly as possible, and then collect the tax and collect the money.
So after learning the details of the previous money laundering case, the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division (IRS-CI) directly sent people to arrest Juan Alpeto Canas.
After throwing Juan into prison, the Criminal Investigation Division of the IRS began to search for relevant evidence. In just two weeks, they found out more than 90% of the accounts that the other party had concealed over the years, and finally successfully collected them. Juan paid and sent him to jail.
So the second document August handed to Luo An, in addition to the bonus distribution and bonus doubling certificate for picking up the case, there was also the 320,000 reward for solving the case transferred from the IRS to Luo An, and the No. 5 investigation. 550,000 activity funds for the group.
But the difference in the past is that both amounts were directly deducted from tax.
Luo An smacked his tongue: "As expected of the IRS."
After continuing to chat with Augustus for a while, Luo An got up and left the team leader's office when he saw Augustus yawning profusely.
Returning to his work station, Luo An briefly calculated his gains during this period.
After the [Chief Financial Officer Kidnapping Case] ended, he received a doubled bonus of US$3,000 and a US$320,000 reward from the IRS for solving the case.
[The Arson Case of a Congressman and Student] also doubled the bonus to US$3,000, while the bonus after [The Murder of a Former No. 5 Female Detective from Investigation Team] was US$4,000, so the total gains during this period were exactly US$330,000.
Coupled with the remaining US$150,000 from the previous purchase of Microsoft stock, Luo An now had another US$480,000 in his pocket.
Wednesday was spent in such a hazy way, and the same was true for Thursday and Friday. Time came to Saturday in the blink of an eye.
Saturday afternoon.
After opening his eyes and kissing Mona, Luo An, who had been fooling around with Mona for a whole day, got up from the big bed and slowly walked into the bathroom to resolve internal conflicts and wash up.
While washing, Luo An reviewed his recent life.
As far as work is concerned, except for the time when he first joined the No. 5 Investigation Team, he has generally been "working three days and four days off" in recent weeks.
That is, two or three days a week are used to solve crimes, and four or five days are used to rest and greet the families of some people in the forum online.
Fishing every day cannot be said to be aboveboard, but it can also be said to be fair and aboveboard.
Not to mention money, the car was given as a gift, the apartment was bought at a cheap price, and Luo An himself didn't have much expenses.
In terms of physical and emotional aspects, he was accompanied by Lydia in the front, and after Lydia was sent away by him, there was Lacey... who helped introduce him to beautiful girls several times, and finally formed a deep friendship with Mona. .
Spitting out the toothpaste in his mouth, Luo An looked at himself in the mirror and raised the corners of his mouth.
Moreover, he was promoted to deputy team leader, and his salary also increased significantly!
After washing up, Luo An put on his suit for the party, walked into the bedroom and patted Mona gently:
"I go first."
Mona, whose body was sore, didn't answer, didn't open her eyes and turned around to continue sleeping. It looked like she should be able to sleep until the next day.
After leaving Mona's house, Luo An first drove to Veranith's apartment to pick her up, and then headed to the party with Veranith, who was wearing a women's suit and light makeup.
