California, Los Angeles.
Los Angeles is located in the southwest of California, the second largest city in the federation and also the largest city in the western federated states, often referred to as "Angel City."
When Luo An and the others arrived here on their plane, the sun had already risen, the air was very warm and a bit dry.
The FBI Los Angeles Branch was not far from the University of California, Los Angeles, and it was only a thirty-minute car ride from Los Angeles International Airport, so everyone quickly arrived there by a special car.
"Hello."
They were greeted by a bald white man, who was the group leader of an investigative team at the FBI Los Angeles Branch, nad Owen.
"Group Leader Owen, hello."
Levis and his companion smiled and extended their hands to shake his, Luo An could tell from their conversation that they had interacted frequently before and were quite familiar with each other.
Seeing Owen turn his gaze towards them, Luo An, leading the team, imdiately smiled and extended his hand:
"Hello, Group Leader Owen, I am..."
"Deputy Group Leader Luo An Greenwood, I've heard much about you!"
Before Luo An could finish his words, Owen had called out his na and held his hand tightly, laughing loudly:
"Vireness has ntioned you to , indeed you are young and handso!"
"You flatter ."
Hearing Vireness ntioned by the other party, Luo An suddenly realized and his initially polite smile beca slightly warr.
Luo An had initially thought that their team might face so difficulties investigating in another group's territory.
But since Vireness had already given a heads-up, such issues would surely be much reduced.
Having support from higher-ups feels reassuring indeed!
In an office of the FBI Los Angeles Branch.
Mona was chatting with Zachary Moore via computer and confirming the eting location, Reesi was organizing communication devices and other equipnt, and Leide was arranging the US Dollars needed for the eting.
Luo An sat in a nearby chair, looking down at the docunts, while Valita was applying makeup on his face with a bunch of bottles and jars.
Mona and her two companions hadn't realized that Valita was the makeup master Levis had ntioned.
Seeing that Valita was about to finish the makeup, Levis standing nearby imdiately asked:
"How is it, Luo An, have you morized everything?"
The folder in Luo An's hands contained all the previous chat records between that agent and Zachary, as well as the identity and personal information the agent had created for himself.
These contents were very important, from the mont they boarded the plane, Levis had required Luo An to morize them all.
However, seeing the thick stack of papers in the folder and such a brief amount of ti, Levis also felt this was a tough ask for Luo An.
But this was crucial for Luo An's life safety and the success of the mission, so Levis suppressed his slight regret and said very seriously:
"Luo An, I don't care how you do it, you must morize everything!"
"Relax, Chief."
Hearing Levis's words, Luo An, who had just finished his makeup, straightened up and shook his legs, casually tossing the folder aside and laughed:
"I morized everything while on the plane."
The chat records in the folder were not complicated, rely mutual probing and more probing.
Viewing it from the FBI agent's perspective, Luo An quickly grasped the agent's strategies and probing sentences thoroughly.
Switching his identity to an assassin, Luo An had also roughly gathered Zachary's thoughts during their chats as an interdiary, so it didn't take long for Luo An to completely morize all the probing statents.
anwhile, being an assassin in his forr life, the most fundantal skill was to quickly imrse into the identity he was impersonating, so the identity and information created by the agent for him were also fully morized by Luo An in no ti.
"What?"
Hearing this and seeing Luo An's nonchalant expression, Group Leader Owen furrowed his brows instantly, and Valita's face also darkened in a flash.
Levis placed his hands on his hips and said coldly:
"Luo An, these docunts are related to your life! You..."
"I know."
Not wanting to waste ti arguing with Levis, Luo An simply handed over the folder to him, letting Levis ask questions, to which Luo An was able to answer ninety-nine percent of them accurately.
The remaining one percent were instances where Luo An's spoken sentences didn't completely match the exact words from the chat.
This was normal, after all, both had been talking for several weeks, and it was inevitable that so words and phrases wouldn't be rembered perfectly.
After hearing Luo An's responses, Valita and Group Leader Owen stood by with their eyes wide open, faces full of disbelief.
Levis, too, was dumbstruck, and after a long silence, he closed the folder, threw it aside, and firmly patted Luo An on the shoulder:
"Well done, Luo An, no wonder you beca a deputy leader at 25!"
After a brief pause, Levis asked in a low voice:
"By the way, Luo An, after this mission, have you considered coming to Washington?
I have a few vacancies under , and I think one of the leader positions would suit you well..."
Seeing the greed in Levis's eyes, Luo An swallowed and chuckled hastily, pulling Vireness in front of him as a shield.
Levis clicked his tongue, feeling sowhat regretful, and seeing that Reesi and her team were all ready, he stopped talking and imdiately began the operation.
Reesi attached three mini communicators on Luo An, located on the cufflinks of his white shirt, the button on his shirt, and behind the button of his back pocket.
These communicators would work continuously to facilitate support from Reesi and her team.
anwhile, Group Leader Owen prepared a black gun with its serial number wiped for Luo An, which Luo An concealed at his back waist.
"There are three objectives in this mission: first, to capture Zachary; second, to try to capture his bomb-making partner behind him; third, to find those bombs."
"Understood."
Hearing Levis's words, Luo An's lips curled up, giving Mona a reassuring glance not to panic, then turned back to look at Levis and asked:
"Do you have glasses? Get a pair."
"?"
Levis looked puzzled, and Valita frowned slightly and said:
"No need to wear glasses, Luo An, your makeup is absolutely flawless."
"That's because the makeup is flawless, that's why I need glasses."
Luo An spread his hands and said,
"I'm supposed to be a bomb buyer now, how can I not have any disguise?"
Hearing this, Levis suddenly slapped his forehead, and Group Leader Owen also realized, while Valita blushed slightly and quickly ran out to find a pair of plain glasses for Luo An.
After putting on the plain glasses, Luo An, seeing his face that seed at least eighty percent less attractive in the mirror, twitched the corner of his mouth, then took the bag filled with money from Levis and headed towards the car, driving it to the et-up location requested by Zachary.
Mona and the others did not imdiately follow because Luo An, judging from his own perspective, guessed that the first specified location was likely a decoy.
Sure enough, half an hour after Luo An's car arrived at the abandoned dock ntioned by Zachary, his phone suddenly rang.
Pressing the answer key, an enthusiastic voice ca from the other end:
"Sorry, Mr. Kote, I suddenly feel that the dock is not quite suitable, how about we change the location?"
Kote was Luo An's alias.
Luo An glanced through the car window at a nearby tower and grinned:
"Sure."
