The two of them had just talked about the reporter's question when the phone on Tony's desk suddenly rang. After answering the phone, Tony hummed twice, then put down the phone and said to Owen, "Chloe found something, we'd better go check it out."
one time……"
Going downstairs and coming to Chloe's side, Chloe pointed to some codes on the screen and said, "I just broke into his email. There were several encrypted emails in it, but I cracked its encryption algorithm. This
It’s the content of the email…”
Chloe did a few operations, and the content of the email appeared on the screen. Owen checked it roughly. The content of the email was blurry, but the White Mask and the Four Knights did appear.
Owen's brows frowned. There always seemed to be something wrong with this email. Owen looked at Tony, who was pondering. Owen looked at Chloe again, and Chloe shrugged, "It seems you've noticed it too, these days."
The email is a bit too simple, as if it is afraid that the decryptor will not be able to decipher it. The encryption algorithm used is very basic, as if it is a specially designed loophole..."
Owen said to himself that it was indeed the case, that was how he felt, but it was just vague and unable to express it.
When the three of them were about to say something, Joshua's voice appeared in the headset, "Report, something abnormal was found. It seems that there is another wave of people staring at the reporter..."
Owen was shocked. There was another group of people following the reporter. He didn't know what it was. Those were just speculations. Now the clues are actually there. Those people are probably the White Mask. Owen immediately grabbed the communicator.
"Joshua, it's me, Owen, don't take any action, just keep an eye on me and wait for me to pass..."
After saying that, Owen put down the communicator and ran towards the door.
"then……"
Owen turned around and took the car keys that Tony threw over, and walked out of the door in a few steps. Then there was the roar of an engine outside.
Los Angeles is Irving's hometown, and he is extremely familiar with every plant and tree here. Irving drove the car at high speed, wishing he could fly next to Joshua and the others immediately.
The car ran through several traffic lights and almost caused a traffic jam. Owen drifted continuously through the corners along the way, which was indescribably graceful. Soon, a siren sounded from behind, and Owen secretly exclaimed that he was unlucky. He could see it in the rearview mirror.
Chasing him was a police car, its red and blue lights flashing.
Irving originally wanted to get rid of him, but he didn't expect that the plainclothes guy behind him turned out to be a master. He followed Irving for a few blocks. Not only did he not get rid of him, he even showed signs of overtaking him.
Seeing that he couldn't get away from the other party, Owen simply slowed down and parked obediently on the side of the road. He was going to reveal his identity and send the other party away, otherwise all the actions would be ruined in such a grand way.
The car stopped steadily, and Owen stayed in the cab as usual and did not move, otherwise it would be bad if there was a misunderstanding and the other party would shoot. The police car behind also stopped, the door opened, and a policeman got out of the car and put his hand
Walking toward Owen on the handle of the gun.
Owen looked back in the rearview mirror, but his eyes almost popped out of his head, if for no other reason than because the policeman walking towards him turned out to be Father George.
"Dad? Why...how did you become a patrol policeman?"
Father George was also surprised when he saw Owen, "Steve?"
Then a smile appeared on his face as if he had reunited after a long absence. "When did your kid come back to Los Angeles? You didn't even say a word. Let's have a drink together..."
"Uh... Dad, I just came back today, but you are..."
Owen pointed at the patrol uniform on his father. He was the head of the Major Crimes Division and a veteran of the West Hollywood branch. Even Director Harville was very respectful to his father. What's going on? What's going on?
Dad is now a patrol officer.
"Oh, I asked for it myself. I'm about to retire. Recently, I often think about the things I did when I was a small police officer. It was dull but very meaningful. Unlike the serious crime team, I was exposed to all major and important cases, but there were less of them.
Meaning, so I asked to be transferred to the patrol team..."
Owen nodded, that's it. If he hadn't asked for it, no one would have dared to do it.
Looking at his watch, Owen said awkwardly, "Dad, I'm on an emergency mission. I have to leave now. When I'm done, I'll go to the police station to see everyone..."
"Oh, walk quickly, it's important to perform the task, be careful, don't hurt yourself..."
In response to Father George's instructions, Owen reached out of the car window to say goodbye and drove away in the car.
Owen stepped on the accelerator, the car accelerated and sped away again.
Soon Owen arrived at where Joshua and the others were. In a van on the roadside, Owen knocked on the door. The van opened a crack, Owen got in and the door closed again.
The compartment in the van was filled with various equipment. Besides Joshua, there was also a strange guy, who should have joined TU after Owen left.
"Owen, you're here."
Joshua said hello.
Owen nodded, "What's going on now?"
"I think we might have crashed..."
"What's the meaning?"
"Did you see the car diagonally opposite? That's another group of people staring at reporters. We know their existence, and they also know our existence. I just asked Chloe to check the license plate number. The car
It belongs to a fast printing company, and according to our information, this fast printing company is a CIA property..."
Owen frowned, "Are you saying that we and CIA are targeting the same group of people?"
"I'm afraid so."
Joshua thought for a while and then added, "And strictly speaking, they came earlier than us..."
Owen did not expect to encounter such a thing, but he is not afraid. Omega has the highest authority to fight terrorism. As long as Owen says that this case belongs to Omega, both the CIA and the Ministry of National Defense will have to step aside.
After thinking about it, Irving decided to talk to Cia first to avoid any misunderstanding. Irving opened the car door, got out of the car, and headed towards the van diagonally across from the car.
"Dong dong dong~~"
Irving knocked on the door, and the car door opened. Irving was about to speak, but this time his jaw almost dropped. The guy who opened the door was actually Carlos.
The other two people in the car greeted Owen in a familiar manner. Owen showed an expression that he should have expected. The people in front of him were none other than Team 7, Harry and Simon, who had performed missions with him in Switzerland.
, it was he who recommended Carlos to join Team 7.
Team 7 is an internal codename, and its official name should be Team Omega. Yes, it is exactly the same as Irving's team name, except that one is affiliated with CIA and the other is affiliated with CTU.
"What a coincidence..."
Owen had nothing to say, and the situation was a little awkward. Harry shrugged, "Come in, I think you must have a lot of questions to ask me..."
Twenty minutes later, Owen came out of the car. He felt like shit. Who would have thought that this was a bureau? There were no reporters, white masks, or four knights. This was a bureau set up by CIA to find out the traitors.
, but I didn’t expect that the traitor was not lured out, but ctu was lured out.
Who would have thought that such a huge own goal would happen. Irving even made a special trip from Washington to Los Angeles, but it seems that this trip was in vain.
The situation has become clear, and there is nothing Owen can do. There are still many things to do at Omega. He plans to stay another day tomorrow to see his friends, and leave the day after tomorrow to return to Washington.
