The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

Lake listened to the voice of the person coming from outside reporting to the door and smiled.

This is coming straight to the door.

Lake looked at Rachel.

after awhile.

Rachel and Mia took Josie into the master bedroom and closed the door instantly.

Lake got up to open the door.

door.

Los Angeles Federal Investigator Bill Kings showed his ID, then introduced the federal man next to him and said, "Johnny Chen."

Lake glanced at their credentials, opened the door, and motioned for them to come in.

on the sofa.

Lake didn't make any moves to entertain, and sat directly on the sofa, with his legs crossed, facing this African-American Bill Kings: "Why, your director knows that I'm here, let you two come over to express my regards?"

Bill Kings smiled: "The director has this intention. He is currently in a meeting outside the city and cannot come directly."

Lake nodded: "There is another meeting. It's not yet the end of the year, and it's not time to spend money on the surprise attack."

Bill Kings didn't chime in.

This kind of design to a series of high-level things is currently not within his reach.

Seeing this, Lake said directly: "Okay, I received the greetings, is there anything else, if not..."

Bill Kings said quickly: "Director Edwin, there is indeed one more thing."

Lake looked at Bill Kings, hehe smiled: "I knew that if your director wanted to greet me, he would have called me directly. It really has another purpose for you to come here, let's just say it. ,whats the matter."

Bill Kingston looked at Johnny Chen next to him.

The stickman asked Lake, "Sir, have you been to a snack and coffee shop called Toledo this afternoon?"

Rachel, who was listening in the bedroom, glared at Mia angrily.

How are you going to argue?

The FBI came up.

Mia was also silent when she heard this. They have been targeted by the FBI?

Outside.

Lake listened to this sentence and nodded directly: "Yes, what's wrong."

Bill Kings said, "Sir, can I ask, where are you going..."

"Private business."

"What kind of private matter?"

"..."

Lake looked up, looked at the talking babe, then looked at Bill Kings, the corners of his mouth curved slightly: "Do I need to call your boss now, why, the California FBI intends to overstep its authority to investigate me directly. A senior director of Homeland Security?"

Bill Kings froze in his heart and said quickly, "I don't dare, it's just that a case we're investigating recently involves Dominic Toledo, so..."

Lake asked directly: "Case, what case?"

Bill Kings thought about it for a moment, and said directly: "In the past two years, there have been many cases of car gang robbery. They drove three Honda Civics with first-class driving skills, and directly robbed large trucks while they were driving. "

"Dominic Toledo?"

"right."

"You're eyeing him, do you have any evidence?"

"this……"

Lake looked at Bill Kings' expression, nodded, and said directly: "I'm here to go on vacation with my girlfriend, not to handle a case. I need the assistance of the Department of Homeland Security. I'm looking for the Department of Homeland Security in California. I'm from New York State. ."

Bill Kings was silent for a while, then nodded: "Excuse me."

Lake got up to see the guest: "walk slowly."

The two went out.

Johnny Chen looked at Bill Kings with some puzzlement: "What does he mean."

Bill Kings smiled and walked into the elevator: "These big bosses are so mysterious, who knows what they are thinking, we can do ours."

Johnny Chen nodded understandingly.

inside the room.

Rachel said to Mia without any anger: "Did you see, the FBI has already been eyeing, you go back and tell Tang, I won't care about this matter, don't expect me to use my relationship to protect him this time. "

It was justifiable to go the wrong way once, and he had already received the punishment he deserved.

But again?

There is no excuse for this.

Mia opened her mouth, and her face became a little anxious.

Lake, who poured himself a glass of wine, turned to Mia and said, "They still have solid evidence in their hands, you know what I mean."

Mia looked at Rachel for help.

Rachel glared at Lake angrily: "Don't interfere."

Lake took a sip of his glass of wine and walked into the master bedroom without speaking. He and Josie found a cartoon and watched it together.

Rachel covered her forehead, took a deep breath, and said to Mia: "Go back and tell him, I don't care if he returns to his old business or not, from now on, give me peace of mind, if something happens, I will never helping him."

Mia nodded repeatedly, wanting to leave.

Rachel stopped Mia: "Come back, you will sleep here tonight with Josie."

Mia looked at Rachel in confusion.

Rachel glanced at Lake, who was watching TV in the master bedroom, and said angrily to Mia: "The FBI people are down below, you go out now, they will see you, and you will be leaving tomorrow morning."

Mia blinked.

night time.

After Rachel went to bed, she looked at Lake, who was watching "Doctor Who" on her notebook, and said curiously, "When we went, did the FBI already have someone in ambush there?"

Lake pressed the pause button, thought for a while, and said, "Yes, it's not right."

"what?"

"The FBI didn't have an ambush there, at the very least, they wouldn't have an ambush when they didn't have evidence."

"Then how did they know we were there?"

Lake turned his head to look at Rachel, smiled and said, "At that time, when we got off the car, were there any customers in Mia's store?"

Rachel thought for a while: "Two?"

One was reading a newspaper while drinking coffee, and one was eating a tuna sandwich inside.

Lake smiled and said nothing.

Rachel was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lake: "You mean, of those two people, one of them is an undercover agent of the FBI?"

Lake said directly: "I didn't say that. Langley's identity cannot be revealed. Similarly, the undercover identity of federal agents cannot be exposed. Even I don't know the undercover identity of federal agents. After all, these undercover agents cannot be exposed. , Doing the most dangerous work, I'm talking about, except undercover, the FBI wants to monitor suspects, there are many ways, have you counted how many cameras there are on that street?"

Rachel didn't speak, and began to think about how many surveillance cameras were passing by at the time.

Lake smiled and continued to look at his Doctor Who.

He doesn't care about spoiling the plot or anything, but it's not right to directly expose Brian O'Connor's undercover, at least, he can't expose it.

After all, they are all comrades in the same trench. Even if they don't plan to help, they directly expose their undercover identity, especially if another law enforcement officer is exposed. This is a taboo in all corners of the world.

How many federal law enforcement agents are undercover in the dark world?

a lot of.

Some people retreated completely, and some small frustrated people directly got into the position of the big brother, but more, after the undercover identity was exposed, they were killed and dumped by cruel methods.

the next day.

When Lake and Rachel got up, Mia had already left.

On Mia's side, she found Dominic directly in her auto repair shop.

Tang looked at Mia who hurried in from outside: "Didn't you come back last night?"

His experience last night can be described as thrilling. If Brian hadn't helped him escape, he should have been in the prison of the police station by this time.

Mia said hi to several of Dominic's good brothers, and then prepared to call Dominic the office and told him that they had to stop, and now they have been targeted by the FBI.

but……

Just as Dominic was about to follow Mia in, Brian O'Connor pulled a car that had been run over and was almost about to be scrapped.

Dominic and Mia both looked over, and Mia smiled when she saw Brian.

in the hotel.

Lake used his notebook to check the records of the investigations and driver's interviews sent by assistant Tiffany about several speeding robberies that took place here in Los Angeles.

Simply put, it is the boldness of the art masters.

Ordinary robbers try to force the trucks to stop and then commit crimes.

But this gang?

The robbery was beaten directly during the exercise, and there was no forced stop. When the driver woke up and reported the crime, he was no longer at the scene of the crime, and even he did not know where the car was lost. .

Lake immediately saw the action route of the trucks several times.

smiled.

Rachel glanced at it and was speechless. No wonder this case would alarm the FBI. The second case, which was under construction in California and Nevada at the time, went directly through the border.

Interstate crime.

Among the FBI's powers, it happened that several cases were merged in an instant, and all of them were handed over to the FBI for investigation.

If there is no interstate, even if it is robbed a dozen times, it is estimated that the FBI will not take a look, and even if the FBI wants to find a case, it is estimated that the local police department will not give it.

Lake and Rachel didn't delay today's trip because of this incident, and still took Josie to another attraction for a day.

Wait until the next day.

early morning.

Lake received a call on his cell phone.

Not Assistant Tiffany's.

but gold.

Lake glanced.

"Say."

"Mr. Edwin, I know, you told me not to interfere in this matter, but I received a tip here that your car was picked up by a car dealer in Los Angeles called Racing Edge just half an hour ago. already."

"……thanks."

"You're welcome, if there is anything you need me, Mr. Edwin can talk. I'd love to be friends with Mr. Edwin, just as I am friends with the New York Federal Bureau."

"Okay, I will definitely contact you if I need it."

"goodbye."

"goodbye."

Lake hung up the phone.

His eyes flickered slightly.

Racing fringe?
