"elder brother."

"what."

"Go to the base with me?"

"No."

Lake, who was eating his cup of coffee, waved his hand and said, "I'll go to the Navy Courtyard first."

Betty curiously said, "Naval Courtyard?"

Lake said: "I came here to assist in the investigation, not the one who led the investigation. When there is no task, it doesn't matter to go to Quantico, but if you have a task, it's better to follow others."

Why is the federal military special?

Because there are investigation bureaus outside, and likewise, there are in the military.

There are CIDs responsible for Army crimes, NCIS responsible for Navy cases, Air Force Special Investigation Bureau, Coast Guard Investigation Bureau, Marine Corps Criminal Investigation Command and National Defense Criminal Investigation Bureau...

When it comes to cases involving military affairs, the outside world cannot interfere.

Especially the case of Quantico.

Lake doesn't want to be named by the generals of the Pentagon, so it's better to go to Quantico to investigate the nuclear physicist and directly pull the NCIS people over.

At 8 o'clock in the morning.

A small building with a red appearance in the Navy compound, here is the headquarters of NCIS.

bite!

The elevator door is opened.

In the office area of ​​Jethero Gibbs, director of the NCIS Investigation Office, special agent Anthony Dinozo, was chatting as always with Jiva David's desk from Mossad, Israel.

As for the other one, Tinosie McGee, he was once again under the test of Anthony Dinozo's prank on his computer desk.

Lake shouted to Ji Wa with his back to him: "Ji Wa!"

Jiwa, who was chatting with Anthony, immediately turned around.

The same goes for Anthony Dinozo.

When Jiwa saw Lake standing not far away, her eyes lit up, stood up, passed by Anthony, and came directly towards Lake.

but……

Not a hug, but an offensive.

Lake looked at Ji Wa's attacking posture, laughed, took off his military cap, turned sideways, blocked Ji Wa's long legs with one hand, and then turned directly behind Ji Wa's back, and the military cap crossed between Ji Wa's neck: "You're dead again."

Jiwa and Lake hugged.

When Lake was in the army, he once had a mission to operate with Israeli troops. At that time, Langley's agents were released on the federal side, and naturally, Israel also sent Jiwa.

In this way, Lake and Ji Wa met. Although the relationship was not very good, it was definitely not very bad.

After Jiwa let go of Lake, she looked at Lake who was wearing a neat white major uniform today and praised: "You are very handsome in this outfit."

Anthony Dinozo walked over, looked at Lake, and reached out: "Anthony Dinozo, a very special agent in NCIS."

Lake Shakes Hands: "Domestic Homeland Security, Assistant Director of Operations, Lake Edwin."

"Domestic Homeland Security?"

“Is there any problem?”

"without."

Anthony said: "I have a friend who is also in the Department of Homeland Security, but I have never heard of a soldier from the Department of Homeland Security."

McGee, who escaped from Anthony's prank, walked over and explained to Anthony who Lake was, and shook hands with Lake: "I'm glad to see you, Major Edwin."

Lake also shook hands, and then said to Jiwa: "I'll come to find Gibbs."

Ji Wa pointed upstairs and said, "I'll take you there."

Lake nodded.

Anthony looked at Jiva and Lake who left directly, and then looked at McGee: "Rookie, who is he?"

McGee shook her head speechlessly, speaking in a little admiration: "Major Lake Edwin, one of the recipients of the Purple Heart."

Anthony was instantly unaware of his sternness.

upstairs.

NCIS Office Director Jenny Schepper is in the office.

Gibbs is arguing with his old lover, Jenny Schappa, who is also his boss: "My case, my rules, I don't need..."

A knock on the door sounded.

Gibbs turned his head and looked at Jiwa who opened the door: "What are you doing?"

Ji Wa was just about to speak.

Lake appeared behind Jiwa and looked at Gibbs with a smile: "Gibbs, I hope you are not complaining about my interference with Director Snowpa."

Gibbs looked at Lake that appeared: "Lake?"

Lake said: "Believe me, I don't want to come here, but there is no way. I am the only one who has made the Department of Homeland Security qualified to intervene in this case and to enter the military investigation. However, I promise you that I will never rob your case. I just brought a pair of eyes and didn't even have my brain."

Gibbs: "…"

If Lake's ultimate bottom line is that no one deceives him or uses him, then Gibbs's principle is very simple, whoever stole his case.

and.

Lake and Gibbs have been together for a long time, and at the earliest, it can be traced back to the desert storm operation that both of them have participated.

Half an hour later.

Lake and Gibbs walked down the second floor and talked.

In the office area, McGee directly opened Lake's military files and explained Lake's experience to Dinozopo next to him.

Dinozo looked at the dense smears in Lakeco's public archives and was a little surprised: "Jesus Christ, is this guy the second Gibbs?"

Next second.

Dinozo's heart was filled with a cold look. Looking at the silent Mackey and Jiwa next to him, he didn't dare to reply: "The boss is behind me, right?"

McGee and Jiwa nodded without leaving any trace.

Dinozo immediately became a spiritual defense: "Come on, boss, I'm ready."

The words fell.

Bang!

Gibbs gave Dinozo a loving touch and walked towards his desk expressionlessly: "Bring your equipment."

The three of them quickly headed towards their desk.

"Boss, is there a case?"

"Quantiko, no case."

“…”

Lake looked at Dinozo, who was silly pulling out his pistol, smiled, and tilted his head and said, "I'm not the second Gibbs. At least, I'm not very proficient in carpentry."

Dinozo: "…"

Quantico Military Base.

After inspection, the three cars entered the Quantico base.

Lake got off the car, not sure if it was his illusion. Even if he followed Gibbs and the others this time, he still vaguely felt that the base was very discomfortable to him.

Maybe it's an illusion.

Lake had no intention of showing off, just as he had just agreed with Gibbs, with only eyes and no brains. As long as the Langley suspected Yusuf Atta Mohammed had a reasonable reason, Lake promised to immediately eliminate his suspicion without saying a word.

Quantico has a laboratory on physics that is built on the Potomac River, near the Quantico military airport.

"elder brother!"

Betty drove from a distance in the base golf cart, got out, smiled at Lake, and said, "Come?"

Lake nodded.

Betty was a little curious: "Don't you ask me how I knew you came here?"

Lake smiled as he thought about the scene of showing his ID, "I guess the moment I entered the base, everyone in the base already knew that there were homeland security investigators coming."

Betty nodded and stretched out two fingers: "In two minutes, the news has spread throughout the base. Is this kind of treatment never available?"

Lake smiled and opened the topic: "I came here to investigate the case. Why are you here to play?"

Betty said: "I'm here to tell you that you can't get in now."

"Why?"
