The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

"what?"

"This is impossible!"

The Secret Service chief heard this, and before Lake's voice disappeared, he slapped the case directly.

good guy.

This is to grab power.

Although after the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security, the system of the Secret Service was also incorporated into the Department of Homeland Security, but just like the incorporated federal law enforcement training center, it belongs to Homeland Security in name, but in fact, like Erlang Shen , belongs to the one that listens to the tune and does not listen to the propaganda.

wrong.

The Secret Service is even worse.

Relying on the fact that my office is in the White Palace, it is just a pair. I am the Homeland Security Bureau in name, but in fact I just put my name on it.

now.

The Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security and the Director of Operations reported to Mr. President directly in front of his Secret Service Director. The consciousness is one, there are ghosts in the mission, and the Secret Service is oversight. For this type of investigation, the Secret Service has no qualifications to continue. in charge.

Can this be tolerated?

After losing the function of investigation, what function does the Secret Service have, and it has really become the bodyguard of the president?

The Secret Service chief looked directly at Mr. President: "Mr. President, this is a one-sided remark from Director Edwin. Regarding this mission investigation, we have conducted investigations with Langley no less than ten times."

Lake looked at the Secret Service chief: "Ten times, you still haven't checked out the ghost inside."

"That's because there are no ghosts in it at all."

The Secret Service Chief said to Lake in a deep voice, "Since Director Edwin said he got the tip, then I can ask where Director Edwin got the tip."

Lake said, "Are you questioning me?"

"Yes."

"Are you qualified for this?"

"what?"

"I didn't hear clearly, I said, do you have the qualification to question me?"

"..."

Cowardice has never been Lake's character.

Do it if you don't like it.

Moreover.

If there is no promotion of Secretary Kelly just now, then, in terms of position, the Secret Service Director does have the qualification to question the informant of the Deputy Director of New York State Operations of the Department of Homeland Security.

but……

Lake got a promotion.

In terms of the agency of the Department of Homeland Security, the Secretary is undoubtedly the largest, and then there are the two Deputy Secretaries, the Customs Commissioner, the Immigration Director, the Secret Service Director, the Federal Training Master, the Commander of the Coast Guard Command...

All right.

Lake is still half a level behind Secret Service Chief.

but……

Lake is affiliated with the headquarters of the Department of Homeland Security, and the Secret Service is a franchise agency. It is the same with any agency. The headquarters will automatically upgrade to a half level when they meet with the franchise agency.

so.

The current Secret Service chief is really not qualified to question who is Lake's informant.

estimate.

That's why Minister Kelly has just been promoted.

After all, Minister Kelly and Lake have known each other for many years. Naturally, they know that Lake has a lot of fun. People who know the basics can turn one eye and close one eye. If someone asks, it is estimated that they will go to the federal prison for a while. .

The Secret Service chief looked in disbelief: "I don't have this qualification?"

Lake tilted his head and looked: "Do you have one?"

Minister Kelly looks at the nose and the nose at the heart.

The Secretary of Defense is watching a play.

"okay."

Mr. President patted the information about Kang on the table and said to Lake and the Secret Service Director: "Gentlemen, pay attention to your identities."

The Secret Service Director was like an angry bull: "Mr. President, Director Edwin accuses the Secret Service of having ghosts based on a single piece of information of unknown origin. I cannot accept it."

Lake said lightly: "I'm helping you, idiot."

"you……"

"enough."

Mr. President once again stopped the Secret Service's urge to roll up his sleeves and looked at Lake: "Director Edwin, this is the White Palace, I heard him mention you when I was playing golf with Thaddeus, you are very capable. ."

Lake smiled and said, "Thank you."

Mr. President looked at the Secretary of Defense who was watching the play: "Corey, what's your opinion?"

The Minister of Defense sitting in the chair raised his head: "I am inclined to Major Edwin's opinion. Since there are hidden dangers, even if possible, they should be investigated."

A major is enough to prove the attitude of the Secretary of Defense.

Lake was in his military.

Although they are currently seconded to the Department of Homeland Security, they are still from the military. Just like Captain America Steve Rogers, the military has a special Rogers office that is responsible for handling some of Rogers' business value.

The Secret Service Director glanced at the Secretary of Defense who stood in line without hesitation, and then said to Mr. President: "Media reporters and news organizations have been notified that if it is postponed or cancelled at this time, there will be some bad impressions."

The purpose of the visit of the President of Onishima this time is to discuss matters concerning the garrison of the island.

Because of the continuous influx of scandals at the island base in recent years, the opinions of the people of Guidao towards this garrison base like the Emperor Taishang are increasing day by day. The purpose of this visit is to pretend.

If this time is suddenly canceled or postponed the meeting time of Onishima country?

The residents of Ghost Island thought it was the humiliation of Chi Guoguo. The people of Ghost Island, what kind of things they did, no one was sure, and it was unpredictable.

Back then, when Ghost Island bombed Pearl Island, the then Federal President thought about it for more than ten days, but he still couldn't understand what kind of brain circuit Ghost Island used to think that they had the strength to fight against the Federation.

Lake looked at the Secret Service Director again: "Even if the attack happened on Pennsylvania Avenue, the consequences may not be as simple as the Secret Service Director resigning."

The Secret Service Director took a deep look at Lake: "Director Edwin is so certain about his intelligence, so certain that he thinks his intelligence sources can outweigh our Secret Service and Langley combined?"

Lake shrugged: "No, I'm just curious. If I have received such a piece of information, why didn't your Secret Service receive it? After thinking about it, it seems that there is only one reason, that is, your Secret Service has ghosts."

talking.

Lake looked directly at the president: "Mr. President, I propose to suspend all the duties of the Secret Service Director. I suspect that the Secret Service Director has surrendered to the enemy and treason."

good guy.

The Secret Service chief only felt his blood pressure soar.

Minister Kelly coughed a little at this time and said, "Mr. President, in half an hour, the Onishima Mission is about to leave. My suggestion is to find a reason to delay first and let Director Edwin lead the team. Go to the embassy and check again."

The Secret Service chief was expressionless: "The embassy is the territory of another country."

In the territory of other countries, the Department of Homeland Security has no function.

Lake smiled and said, "But not outside the iron gate."

It is true that the embassy and consulate is the territory of another country, but outside the iron gate, it is the land of the Federation.

"Did Director Edwin forget that the car of the embassy and consulate is also the territory of another country."

"It's a good solution."

Minister Kelly proposed aloud: "We can have the President of Ghost Island, and the White Palace will send a special car to pick up the President of Ghost Island."

This is a treatment that the country of audience has never had before.

at this time.

The vice president and secretary of state also came in from outside.

Mr. President asked the two men just now for their opinion.

The vice president and the secretary of state glanced at Lake, who was promoted to director of operations. Although, Lake had dealt with them, the Secretary of State was the Colson thing, and the vice president was the Winter Soldier thing.

But that is with personal feelings, and this matter is a business.

The two thought about it for a while, but still stood in the camp of Minister Kelly, Lake and the Secretary of Defense, and agreed to postpone.

but……

The delay should not be too long.

Mr. President thought about it, looked at Lake and said, "You have an hour."

Lake nodded.

An hour is enough.

On the way here, Minister Lake and Kelly have discussed it, and they are most likely to accept the opinion. Therefore, there are already two teams of land agents on standby near the embassy and consulate of Guishima.

out of the Oval Office.

Lake stopped, covered his stomach, and moved towards Minister Kelly who stopped to look at him: "Sorry, my stomach hurts, I'll come when I go."

talking.

Lake snorted directly and walked into the bathroom beside him.

close the door.

Exhale.

Lake shook his head.

It is estimated that the restroom here is the most difficult restroom in the entire Federation.

wrong.

Lake went to the toilet in District 51 first. Unfortunately, General Ross directly rejected Lake's seventeen-year-old New Year's wish.

Therefore, the toilet in District 51 is the most difficult to access.

The toilet of the White Palace is the second child at most.

Open the toilet lid.

into the eye.

A USB flash drive is submerged under the water.

grab.

As Cypher said, open the shell of the U disk and verify the authenticity.

Income storage space.

Lake put some water in, then, after pressing the flush button, he walked out of the cubicle, washed his hands, and went out.

The Betrayal Federation mission is complete.

next task.

Start the Defend Federation mission.

only……

Just as Lake walked out of the White Palace, there were footsteps behind him.

"Stop him."

"..."

Lake looked at the two guards at the door and drew their guns and looked at him directly, squinted his eyes, turned around, and looked blankly at the Secret Service Chief who came with three Secret Service agents.

Minister Kelly, who was already sitting firmly in the back seat, also walked out of the car with some displeasure.

The Secret Service chief had a mysterious smile on his face: "Last month, a Langley intelligence analyst jumped out of the car and committed suicide after leaving the White Palace. Does Director Edwin know about this?"

Lake laughed: "Of course, after I knocked on Secretary Kelly's door at four o'clock, I also chatted with Secretary Kelly. Maybe it was because of this that Langley didn't notice it. What a ghost."

The Secret Service chief ignored Lake's sarcasm: "Director Edwin just went to the bathroom with a stomachache?"

Lake said, "Why, the Secret Service chief is still concerned about whether my stomach hurts?"

The Secret Service chief shook his head, glanced at his three agents, and then smiled: "How can it be so coincidental, Director Edwin just went to the bathroom, so the USB flash drive that was left there for fishing disappeared? Can Director Edwin explain?"

Lake: "..."
