All the customers' attention was diverted to the football program being played on the LCD TV. From time to time, there were curses and cheers, as well as the crisp sound of bottles shaking and colliding. It was extremely lively.
Looking at Colin's table, everyone's expressions were so gloomy that they could drip water, which was incompatible with the surrounding atmosphere.
"From now on, you will form a team of four. Heller and Colin will also be officially promoted to elite agents of Section 11. Team number is 06. I will issue the mission directly and connect with me directly. Do you have any questions?"
Gray didn't say anything about Colin's return. She had long concluded that he would come back. After some communication with Heller, she said this.
Except for Heller, everyone else said it was okay.
"Can you change the team? I can't cope with these people."
Heller forced out a stiff smile. The treatment given by the Countermeasures Bureau was indeed very generous, but if you have to spend all day with these three mentally ill people, please forgive yourself.
"This request is temporarily dismissed. Now I want to say that the task you are going to carry out next is somewhat urgent."
"I have received a secret report. Next, SCT will operate the city's mayoral election. The premise is that they will kill the mayor."
Gray spoke the extremely explosive news in a calm tone. It is hard to imagine that she has too high a mental quality, or that she has experienced too many such things.
"So we are going to protect the mayor next?"
Eugene has never received such a large task, does this mean that the funds for the operation are quite abundant?
"You could say that, but not entirely."
"The mayor is currently attending some activities out of town and will not be back until half a month later."
"Considering the SCT's style, they will definitely attack the people around the mayor, which may make the situation even worse."
"You don't even need to kill him to manipulate the mayor's election. You only need to kidnap his cronies to make him do something detrimental to the overall situation."
"Next you are going to bring back his daughter who is in college."
Gray took out a pile of information and a photo of the mayor's daughter from her suitcase, and distributed them to the four of them.
"Oh! It's really on point."
Heller flicked the photo with his fingers and sighed sincerely.
"Are you a lesbian?"
Colin was shocked.
"What does this have to do with you?"
Heller was horrified by the look in his eyes. No one could remain calm under such a scar-faced gaze. It was so damn scary.
"It's just...that's wonderful, Heller."
Colin's expression looked like a smile, but it was more like a facial muscle twitch.
Heller crossed her hands and touched her arms. When Colin called her name, she got goosebumps. Colin seemed to have a strange hobby.
Lister discovered the crux of the problem.
"Why was she brought back? Could it be that she was in some kind of predicament or that she lost contact?"
Liszt had to think this way. Logically speaking, after receiving this secret report, he should notify the mayor's daughter to come back directly, or a helicopter would directly go over to respond. It was impossible for his group to deal with this matter.
"The mayor's only daughter... is quite rebellious."
"I used my vacation days to go on vacation in the forest with a bunch of dudes. We lost contact three days ago. Some of the police officers we dispatched also disappeared one after another, and there is no news."
Gray's expression was also very grim.
"Have the SCT people caught her?"
Eugene thought the worst.
"It can't be that fast. It's because of other reasons. In short, you will set off tomorrow morning to find her where she last appeared and bring her back. The SCT people will definitely start taking action one after another."
Because the secret report came in the morning, and according to the undercover, the plan has not been officially implemented yet, but is only in the premeditation stage.
"Why not let the mayor resign directly and replace him with an infected person who has the ability to protect himself? In this case, SCT will have no way to start, and there will be no election."
Colin took a deep puff of his cigarette and said to Gray coldly.
However, Gray did not reply, but remained silent. What Colin said was indeed the best solution.
"It's really subtle, isn't it?"
Colin shook the cigarette ashes into the paper cup and spared no effort to ridicule.
Eugene coughed and signaled to Colin not to make the atmosphere so awkward. The mayor of Los Angeles might have invested a lot in the source of the countermeasures bureau's funds.
Since the power of the Liberty Alliance comes from voters, there is no hierarchy between mayors and governors. As for the mayor of Los Angeles, the global film and television industry base, he will not change even after ten governors.
The power held by the mayor of Los Angeles and his position in the alliance meeting are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Liszt frowned. In a sense, SCT is really a terrifying existence. Even if it hasn't taken action yet, just the power of information and words can cause cracks in some fragile connections.
"As an elite agent of Section 11, I will contact agents from other sections and some important figures in the future. Let's use the money from our operational funds to buy decent clothes."
Gray didn't answer Colin's words. She thought that Heller, Colin, and Eugene were all dressed like gangsters.
"The mission information has been told to you and will be executed immediately at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
Gray packed up his document bag and stood up to leave.
"That picture!"
Colin grabbed Gray's wrist with some force, and red scratches appeared on the skin where it came into contact.
Realizing his gaffe, Colin quickly let go.
"I want to know everything about that photo."
Colin said calmly.
"Unfortunately, the No. 1 agent who discovered the photo has died. Only the photo has been preserved, and nothing else can be verified. But I promise that the Countermeasures Bureau will assist you in the investigation. This is all I know."
"Wish ya'll good luck."
After Gray finished speaking, he drank down the bourbon in one gulp, left the tavern, and melted into the dark night.
Liszt was thinking about the mayor's daughter, which was really weird. There were also strange rumors on the Internet recently. There were confusing disappearances not just in North America, but around the world.
"Then let's meet here tomorrow morning and we'll set off together then."
Liszt said.
"Why, are you in charge now?"
Heller sneered.
"Strictly speaking, I am indeed the temporary captain."
Liszt was not angry.
"Haha, temporary captain? Did you hear that?"
Heller turned around to look at the expressions of the other two people, but found that they had already disappeared.
…
…
…
In a high-end clothing store, it was getting late at night and the business hours were about to end.
But suddenly two uninvited guests came.
Colin realized that it was indeed a wise decision to leave the city and go to some forest areas to buy some thicker clothes.
By coincidence, the clothing store I stepped into this time belonged to the same brand as the sportswear store I purchased at the Beverly Hills banquet last time.
But his mind has not changed and he doesn't want to pay some IQ tax.
"Call your store manager out."
Colin said coldly, facing such a scar-faced evil star, the two shopping guides did not dare to provoke him, so they honestly called the store manager.
Eugene was speechless, wondering what trick Colin was going to play.
"Hello, how can I help you?"
The store manager, who was about forty years old, was worried about being hijacked.
"I am an inspector of the fire station. I found that your store is not equipped with fire extinguishing facilities. Fire extinguishers should be placed on both sides of the door. I order you to suspend business for rectification."
Colin showed his certificate from the Fire Department. As an agent of the Countermeasures Bureau, he had all the certificates.
The store manager's face turned green. Although this is indeed against fire regulations, every high-end clothing store does this. Placing a few red fire extinguishers on both sides of the entrance is too cheap. Usually the inspectors are very polite.
What's going on with this guy? I checked his ID and found that he was indeed from the fire department.
"I'm going to a party tomorrow."
Colin said calmly.
The store manager immediately understood and felt relieved. These junk items cost five hundred dollars each and no one wanted them. They just had a logo printed on them to make them look high-end. He didn’t even wear them himself, so he let Colin choose as he pleased. What a waste.
It doesn't matter if you pick some, some of them are just stock.
So, without any money, he got coats and boots worth about 80,000 yuan.
Their cost may be less than 300 yuan, all of which are premiums from Xuanfa's planning of various training designers, etc. This is a legal fraud that can make huge profits hundreds or thousands of times.
"Is this a dialectical way of looking at the world? It's too damn weird!"
Eugene was stunned and immediately started to choose.
