Just as he arrived at the office door, Vireness walked out from inside.
"Hello, boss."
Vireness nodded without any superfluous words and directly walked past Luo An:
"Co with ."
Seeing this, Luo An hurriedly followed. The two entered the elevator and Vireness pressed the button for a higher floor.
As the elevator doors slowly opened, the inscription "Special Agent Supervisor Office" in the distance of the corridor suddenly caught Luo An's eye.
Luo An's eyebrows twitched at the sight, and before he could speak, Vireness had already quickly stepped out of the elevator, heading straight for the Special Agent Supervisor Office and then knocked on the door.
"Wait a mont."
A sowhat hoarse middle-aged male voice ca from the office. Seeing Vireness standing at the door waiting, Luo An also decisively stood by her side.
Soon, the office door was opened, and an unexpected person appeared before Luo An.
"Hello, boss."
Dressed in a black suit, with a team leader badge hanging on his chest, Matthews walked out of the office, hurriedly smiling and greeting Vireness.
But, the mont he saw Luo An behind Vireness, Matthews' smile instantly stiffened.
Vireness nodded, not responding, and directly walked into the office.
Luo An did not receive any instructions to enter, instead, he tilted his head towards Matthews, his lips curling up revealing a gentle smile:
"Good afternoon, Chief Matthews."
On hearing this, Matthews' lips twitched.
He couldn't understand why Luo An, a re agent, was here.
An agent and a Special Agent Supervisor are levels apart?
His presence here must have special reasons!
Thinking of special reasons, Matthews shuddered inside, could it be because of that serial bank robbery case?
But then Matthews quickly shook his head.
The case had only been transferred to investigation team five three days ago, what clues could they have found in such a short ti?
Could it be that Vireness brought Luo An to et Special Agent Supervisor Kobert because of this?
Could it be… there was a mistake made during the investigation?
At that thought, Matthews' eyes suddenly lit up.
Before he could speak, the next second, Vireness' distinct cool tone ca from inside the office:
"Good afternoon, boss.
The serial bank robbery case, my agent Luo An Greenwood has captured one of the gangs involved.
However, this matter also involved people from the IRS, I'm here to report on this."
Upon hearing this, the forrly hopeful Matthews instantly narrowed his pupils, looking at Luo An in disbelief.
Luo An did not speak, only his smile grew even more warm and pleasant.
Sitting in the chair, sowhat diterranean Kobert, hearing Vireness' words was montarily stunned, then he put down the pen in his hand and looked up in confusion:
"Catching one of the gangs? What do you an by that?"
"It's best if Luo An Greenwood explains the specifics."
Vireness shook her head, indicating that Luo An Greenwood was primarily leading this case, and it was appropriate for him to explain.
Kobert looked at Vireness intently, then closed the folder on his desk, leaned back, and nodded:
"So Luo An Greenwood is here, let him co in."
Vireness nodded, turned to the door, seeing Matthews still standing there, her eyebrows imdiately furrowed:
"Matthews, let Luo An in and rember to close the door when you leave."
Matthews: "..."
Before Matthews could respond, Luo An, who was standing at the door, straightened his suit, curved his lips into a sunny smile, walked up to Matthews and said in a low voice:
"Excuse , Chief Matthews, the boss is calling inside."
"I..."
Matthews, hearing this, his face instantly turned incredibly unpleasant.
But seeing Kobert in the office shifting his attention towards them, Matthews took a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart, moved to one side slightly, and indicated for Luo An to enter the office.
"Thank you, chief."
Luo An smiled, nodded his head, walked into the office, and also conveniently closed the large office door.
The door closed briskly, Matthews nearly got his nose hit, which imdiately turned his face the color of a pig's liver.
A slew of curses were stuck in Matthews' throat, but considering Kobert in the office, he didn't dare to cuss out loud.
But his face color deepened straight from the color of a pig's liver to eggplant purple.
Luo An Greenwood, in the hallway, had no idea about Matthews' condition, and even if he had known, he wouldn't care since Special Agent Supervisor Kobert was already looking his way.
"Good day, sir. I am the official agent from Investigation Team Five, Luo An Greenwood."
Approaching the desk, next to Vireness, Luo An greeted Kobert with a smile, neither servile nor overbearing.
Seeing Luo An's upright posture and handso face, a trace of irritation in Kobert's heart vanished instantly, a faint smile also appeared on his face, and he directly asked:
"Give a brief on the case."
"Yes, sir."
Luo An nodded, no nonsense, and directly narrated the effort of Investigation Team Five on the case, their guesses about the situation, and the capture process.
He also ntioned that Investigation Team Five had gotten important clues from the previous four robbery cases and believed they could solve the case within the set ti.
"Good."
After hearing Luo An's narration, Kobert, who had unconsciously sat upright, nodded in satisfaction, paused for a few seconds, and then waved his hands:
"OK, you may leave now."
"Yes, sir."
Luo An promptly agreed, nodded to Vireness standing by, and without hesitation, turned and left the room.
Pulling open the office door, Matthews had already disappeared.
But the observant Luo An noticed what seed to be a punch mark on the wall opposite the office, and there seed to be traces of blood in it.
Luo An grinned, closed the office door, and began to wait.
Inside the office, Kobert tapped his pen, nodded:
"He indeed is talented."
Vireness' lips curved up slightly.
After a mont of silence, Kobert waved his hand:
"If this case is solved within the set ti, I will agree to that request you made, as long as it doesn't break any regulations."
"Thank you, sir."
Having received the response she desired, Vireness's little finger trembled, she nodded, and imdiately left the room.
The office door closed slowly, Kobert threw his pen down, leaned back, and began to rest with his eyes closed.
"Luo An Greenwood..."
Vireness returned to her office, just as Luo An returned to the office area of Investigation Team Five, Reesi approached him with a smile, saying:
"In Nimit's words, Brandon is the mastermind behind the two cases."
"A dogfight results in a mouthful of fur."
Hearing this, Luo An shook his head.
Who was the mastermind among the three didn't matter to Luo An at all, since they were already caught, let the judge decide their fate, he only cared when the bank's gratitude paynt would be credited.
After the small apartnt's renovation, Luo An wouldn't have much money left.
"What should we do next, Luo An?"
Seeing that Luo An didn't care about this, Reesi shrugged her shoulders and asked tilting her head:
"Shall we go catch Lady Helen?"
"No, let's go tomorrow."
Luo An shook his head, pointed to the clock nearby:
"It's already ti to get off work."
If he rembered correctly, Norton had promised to treat him to dinner.
—
The next day, at the strip club where Lady Helen was.
"Sorry, agents."
Inside the office, hearing Reesi inquire about the bank robbers, Lady Helen, though past her fifties yet still charming, crossed her legs leisurely and said:
"I really don't know about that group of bank robbers, you've got the wrong person."
"Are you sure?"
Hearing this, Reesi's eyes narrowed slightly, while Luo An sat aside, head down in silence.
He was checking the reward issued by the system yesterday.
