The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

Chapter 113 Let the bullets fly for a while

What is the job of a prosecutor?

After law enforcement has caught the suspect, the prosecutor will appear and prosecute the suspect's crime like a court.

Put it this way.

The battleground for prosecutors is in the courts.

instead of...

arrest the scene.

Lake knew this Parton, not because Parton was the special prosecutor this time, and his tone was not good. Lake has always been wrong to people and things.

This Patton is a rival in a sense to Karen in the Justice Department.

Karen is also a prosecutor.

Lake knew about this Parton because Karen mentioned it this morning, a conceited and self-righteous white race who didn't deal with her.

Karen doesn't like Parton, and naturally, Lake doesn't have a good impression of this Parton.

After Lake finished saying this to Parton, he said directly to the detective at the door: "Irrelevant people, please go out, this is the battle center, all cats and dogs can come in."

Parton frowned: "Assistant Director Edwin, I am the special counsel for this leak, appointed by the Department of Justice."

Lake was expressionless: "I'm from the Department of Homeland Security."

are not the same department.

Minister Kelly gives face to the Attorney General, but that doesn't mean I will give you face, how old are you?

"Please go out."

"……Yes."

Several homeland agents in the operation center had a big fight, and the newcomers felt shivering. A homeland agent who was closest to Parton stood up and said to Parton, "Please go out."

Prosecutor Parton watched the Homeland agent before him.

That look...

It seems to eat people.

Lake snorted coldly: "This is the Department of Homeland Security, not Langley, nor the Department of Justice. Get me out of the way. If anything goes wrong, I'll take it!"

Just a prosecutor trying to use this case to make a name for himself.

"Yes!"

Another homeland agent got up and responded, and then walked directly to Parton, just like the previous homeland agent looked at each other. After that, the two of them dragged Parton outside with one arm.

If you don't want to give you face, then don't blame Lao Tzu for being rude.

Although Patton is a special prosecutor this time, to put it bluntly, he is helping Langley, who is already struggling at the moment, to find the leaked object. Lake's goal is Langley, so Patton who helped Langley is also his enemy.

after an hour.

Several lip-reading experts were invited to the operations center, and the surveillance footage in front of the Lincoln Memorial was being played frame by frame.

"I want to know every word this guy says, every word, every punctuation mark."

"Understood, sir."

Lake was sitting in the center, with a golden knife, and several lip-reading experts directed the detectives who manipulated the video. Then, all eyes were focused on Lake who was under surveillance.

The monitor is Lake.

Anyway, when Lake looked at the monitor, that was himself, just Lake who had undergone microplastic surgery.

But in other people's kind, it seems that the Lake under surveillance, and the Lake here, are two completely unrelated people, let alone association, that is completely unthinkable.

Minister Kelly and Attorney General and Patton re-entered, and it was this picture they saw.

Lake, who was sitting on the chair with his chin up, turned his head to look at Patton, who came in again, raised his eyebrows, and said sarcastically, "Yo, I was bullied, so I went home and called my mother."

Parton's face darkened.

Minister Kelly was speechless: "Lake..."

The Minister of Justice laughed and shook his head: "Like, Patton, like you, wants to find the leaker as soon as possible."

Lake smiled and said, "Really, that's not the case when Patton came over just now. That posture, oh, I thought he was going to take me to the court to sue me for treason."

talking.

Lake pointed to the homeland agents at the operations center: "I can all testify."

Parton took a deep breath: "Does Assistant Director Edwin dare to call out the surveillance? If there is no evidence, this is slander."

"Sorry, the monitoring is broken."

"..."

Lake hehe laughed: "Evidence, I have so many witnesses, you can sue if you have any kind. Whoever persuades is a New Jersey native. If you dare not, I can sue you and slander me with your words."

This guy thinks he's pulling his mother over, and I'll admit it?

Lao Tzu is a member of the military.

Minister Kelly coughed and said directly: "Okay, stop arguing, Lake, how's the investigation going."

Lake chuckled and then pointed to the surveillance video that was playing frame by frame on the big screen: "This leak suspect, calling himself Professor X, was in contact with Ms. Rachel Armstrong in Lincoln Memorial Park three days ago. , the technicians are deciphering the words of this professor X, if nothing else, this person is what we need to find."

"Have the face recognition comparison results come out?"

"No."

Lake glanced at the Attorney General: "I've sent a team to the surveillance site to collect fingerprints, but it's difficult. This Professor X is wearing gloves and is very smart."

"Not so smart either."

Prosecutor Patton sneered: "Has the notice been sent?"

Lake was expressionless.

Prosecutor Patton was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lake, who was silent with a faint smile on his face, and his face darkened again.

Minister Kelly said, "Has the notice been sent out?"

Lake nodded: "The Washington Police Department, the FBI, and the Washington Airport have all sent it out."

After finishing speaking, Lake turned his eyes to Parton: "If Prosecutor Parton is really interested in this case, he should go to the Federal Building and urge the FBI."

Lake looked at Minister Kelly: "Minister, I propose that the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Justice jointly handle this case. After all, there is something here who suspects that I am a leaker. I am not in a good mood."

Prosecutor Parton couldn't help it: "This case..."

Lake interrupted directly, expressionless.

Parton was startled.

Minister Kelly and Attorney General were also brows.

because.

A gun in Lake's hand.

Lake shot directly at Patton, expressionless: "I joined the army at the age of sixteen, participated in the Gulf War, Operation Desert Storm, patriotic, I am a professional, you, count a ball."

Parton had a cold sweat on his forehead: "..."

After half an hour.

Office of the Minister.

Minister Kelly was both angry and funny looking at Lake sitting opposite him, and said with an angry smile: "You know what you just did."

Lake thought for a while: "Tell me the truth?"

"..."

God is so truthful.

Lake waved his hand and said, "Minister, the Attorney General and I are old friends. We won't be angry because of this trivial matter."

Although the attorney general is a friend of Karen's.

but……

If he dares to be angry, the black king will dare to take Lake's order for free.

Lake said: "Minister, the leak suspect, I have found it. Now, our Homeland Security Bureau is not suspected."

Minister Kelly frowned: "What?"

"I came back for vacation, not to handle a case, and I'm from New York State."

Saying so, Lake got up and stretched his waist: "I apply for continued vacation, otherwise, I will apply for three times the salary subsidy for vacation handling."

"...No, hurry up."

"Okay, bye."

"..."

Lake nodded and turned around.

There is no triple salary. If it weren't for the fact that the salary of the Homeland Security Bureau is still high, Lake would have been slaughtered for this behavior of labor force.

night.

Arlington County.

After a day of news fermenting, almost everyone in Washington, D.C., already knows about the newly-released Langley scandal.

on the table.

Karen covered her forehead, turned off her cell phone, and shook her head speechlessly: "Even my friends in Texas called me to ask if this happened to me."

Gossip is always fast.

Especially since this is Langley's gossip, no, this is Langley's scandal.

Karen said and looked up at Lake: "Has that Professor X found it?"

Lake raised his eyebrows: "Wow, your news is very well-informed."

really.

The more beautiful women are, the more deceptive they are.

Lake remembered that Karen told a certain family member far away in Texas just now that she didn't know anything about the matter. As a result, after putting down the phone, she even knew the latest progress of the investigation.

Betty next to him listened to the chat between the two and blinked: "Professor X, hey, why do I seem to have heard it somewhere."

Out of the corner of the eye, Lake glanced at Betty who frowned as if thinking about something.

good guy.

Do you remember the three words I joked when you were three years old?

Is it off?

While considering whether to treat Betty with a baseball bat, Lake spread his hands towards Karen and said, "Sorry, I'm leaving this case."

He really wasn't fit to be involved in this case.

Not to avoid suspicion, but because this is Washington, D.C., and Washington, D.C. has its own operations director, and Lake is the deputy operations director for New York State, and he is leading the case. There will definitely be opinions.

but……

Lake thought for a while, but still shook his head at Karen: "There is no hope of finding it, we have the appearance of this guy, with the energy of Langley and the FBI, if we can find this Professor X, it is estimated that we have found it now. , There is no news yet that this Professor X has probably left Washington, D.C."

Karen said, "How could he have your private number, have you thought about it?"

Lake shrugged: "Who knows, my private number is not so hidden, maybe the bank information department sold my information."

His cell phone number is no secret.

Lake still gets two or three calls a day from real estate agents and mortgages.

The last time I needed a mobile phone number to apply for a bank loan, Lake filled it out.

Then……

The phone must have been leaked.

Damn Stark Bank, they're so rich, they sell citizens' mobile phone numbers.

...

Give me a kiss... ugh, give me a full order! ,Yes or no! !
