The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

After half an hour.

Maria Hill rubbed her wrists and walked out of the small guest room behind her.

Lake stood down the hallway and smiled.

"Sir!"

"Lieutenant Sullivan."

Maria Hill looked at the assistant who walked up to her with a look of excitement, and thanked: "It's all your fault this time."

If it wasn't for Sullivan to get in touch with Lake in time, although Lake would also appear, she was probably transferred to the gendarmerie base at that time. At that time, if nothing else, the ghost knows whether she will be tortured or not. .

human rights?

Ah.

The Federation's military system is self-contained. There are only superiors and subordinates and orders and obedience. What is human rights? The last person who talked about human rights has been kicked out of the group by the military, and completely disappeared after half a month.

Hill walked to Lake: "Thank you."

Lake said: "You are the executive commander of my Super Investigation Bureau. I can ignore others, but I can't ignore you."

Again.

If the executive commander has an accident, he doesn't care about it, then people's hearts will be scattered, and when they are scattered, it will not be easy to get together again.

Lake turned around and walked towards the office again: "Come on, before you transfer out, you are right, there is one thing you need to deal with."

talking.

Lake glanced at Hill, who had come to his side, and quickly recounted what he had just said inside, as well as some things that the two generals had made up their minds, and then quickly said a few bases currently in Afghanistan, Confirming the military personnel who have an interest in Merrick Biopharmaceutical Group, and then said: "You have full authority to handle this matter. As the judicial inspection commander, this is your job."

The conditions have just been negotiated.

Homeland Security handed over the case to Maria Hill, the military-appointed special counsel, and sealed the matter entirely.

In exchange, Lake can get an unreserved signature approval, and Homeland Security, no, and the Super Inspection Bureau, will get permission from the alliance with the special forces, when it comes to overseas cases, the Homeland Security can command the special forces Conduct overseas investigations.

Lake is happy.

Secretary Kelly, who had already scheduled to leave next year with the current Mr. President, was also pleased.

After all, homeland security has no overseas law enforcement power, and once it is allied with special forces, from a certain perspective, homeland security can obtain overseas law enforcement rights through special forces.

This is a good thing for Secretary Kelly. The Homeland Security Agency established in his hands has grown and expanded in just a few years, and has obtained unreserved cooperation with the military in a roundabout way, and even has Tacit overseas enforcement powers.

This achievement is almost the same as the previous generations of Langley chiefs trying to get local law enforcement power.

It is a pity that the previous director of Langley was unable to obtain this permission, and could only secretly build a base in the local area.

Of course.

Cooperation with the special forces did not happen so quickly.

the reason is simple.

General James Gregg needs to take time to run it. After all, as I said before, General Gregg has this ability, which does not mean that he can do this with a single word.

Of course.

The military is not buying peace with money, at least, that is not the case for General James Gregg. If the authenticity of this matter is confirmed, then, after clearing out Merrick's market in the military, who will come? fill it?

The law is only the bottom line, nothing else, the real rules, never on paper, never one.

soon.

In the office, Maria Hill calmly fabricated the results of her secret investigation in the past two weeks with the help of the information that Lake had just quickly popularized, without revealing the slightest flaw.

Lake sat on the sofa and was amazed.

Sure enough, the more beautiful a woman is, the better she can talk, just look at Maria Hill right now.

after awhile.

Maria Hill has successfully and formally obtained from General Greg the prosecutor with full powers to investigate the incident.

and……

James Gregg handed Maria Hill a document that had just been faxed: "When you arrive at the Afghan military base, go to the base commander, General Markas, four-star general, and he will give you full and no reservations. permission to pass.”

After knowing this, the anger of the four-star general, General Markas, was still the first.

how to say?

Put it this way.

About three months ago, there was a joke at the Afghanistan base. At least, it was a joke to the outside world. To put it simply, it was a squat toilet at the Afghanistan base. The cost was as high as $100,000...

After the news came out, it was flooded immediately.

But some generals, including General Ross, who knew the news, made a special phone call, and when they asked, they made a lot of jokes.

Now I understand why the four-star general, General Markas, is so angry.

One by one, the media said that the daily expenditure of the Afghan base exceeded how much, but General Markas dared to swear to God that what really came to his mouth was really not so much.

after an hour.

"Come to my office tomorrow."

"Uh……"

Lake opened his mouth and said to Minister Kelly who was about to get in the car: "Minister, I plan to go back..."

Minister Kelly got into his special car without looking back: "Tomorrow at nine o'clock, remember."

When Lake came back to his senses, Minister Kelly had already whizzed the car and left.

Ross came over from behind and looked at Lake: "You made the right choice."

Lake looked at Ross and shrugged: "It's mainly because you taught me well."

Therefore, it is not without certain reasons that General Ross caused all kinds of trouble in the original plot, and finally achieved the position of Secretary of Defense.

A hot temper does not mean that General Ross has such a bad sense of smell in certain matters.

Among the four people in the family, in terms of the sensitivity of smell, even Karen, the adoptive mother who was born Rockefeller, is not as good as General Ross.

General Ross' voiceover is simple.

Lake's approach this time seems to be giving money and adding chips, but it is actually a very smart way. The case is given to the military, and the military will gain credit and the capital behind it will have a good impression on Lake.

After all, even if Lake and Minister Kelly don't talk about it, those who are qualified to know will still know. Maybe Lake has no obvious credit, but it should be his, and no one can take it away.

There is also a red envelope with the military for the domestication of magical animals, which seems to be a transaction, but in General Ross's view, this is sending a message.

Lake Edwin does not eat alone, he is a member of the military and is willing to share the fruits with the military.

This is enough.

At least, in this way, it is enough to make those military people who originally supported Lake to support Lake more, and it will also make some military bosses who are hesitant to bet or not to bet.

Although General Ross didn't say it before, some of Lake's previous behaviors looked like he was eating alone.

General Ross saw it in his eyes, but the reason why he didn't say it was simple. There was no rush now. If Lake had no background, the previous approach would be enough for the military to give up, but Lake has background. Show that he is not eating alone, then there will still be people who support him.

And for the Department of Homeland Security, Lake also gave a full account.

It is enough for a joint special forces unit to obtain overseas law enforcement power in a roundabout way, and, with this, even if there are two or three terrorist attacks in New York, Lake, the seat of the New York State Department of Homeland Security, will still be stable and peaceful. Like iron eggs.

General Ross nodded, and when he was about to say something, he turned his head and glanced at Maria Hill, who was walking behind him, the corner of his mouth curved, looked at Lake, and said in a low voice, "So, this is our first few children. daughter in law?"

Lake was slightly taken aback.

but……

Before Lake could explain, General Ross had put on his hat and walked towards his special car: "Karen already knows, I don't make any comments on your life style, man, capable Too much work, but I don't know if Karen thinks so."

Done.

General Ross's car whizzed away from the army base.

Lake stood on the spot and opened his mouth, looking at the special car that soon Nian's buttocks could not be seen, and couldn't help blinking his eyes.

WTF?

I?

Maria Hill?

What do you think?

Lake was speechless. He dared to swear to God that he had absolutely nothing wrong with Maria Hill.

"Lake!"

"..."

Lake came back to his senses, turned around, and looked at Maria Hill who was speaking out. At the moment when he turned around, the sun just hit Maria Hill's body. Not to mention, Lake was really amazed.

The close-fitting camouflage combat uniform wraps Maria Hill's straight legs, and the upper body's combat shirt is ready to show.

good guy.

By the way... how come I didn't think Maria Hill was so predictable before.

Also, I don't know if it's an illusion, when I know that Maria Hill is not a human, but a descendant of Midgard, a descendant of the immortal, it seems that there is a different temperament.

"Director Edwin, can I make a third request now?"

"certainly."

Lake smiled and said, "If it was yesterday, after I mentioned it, it would definitely not work, but today I can. I can grant you one more request."

Yesterday's Maria Hill was capable, but she was just an ordinary person, so being capable was equal to two requirements at most.

But today's Maria Hill is not an ordinary person, a descendant of Midgard, a descendant of the immortal, and if you make more requests, Lake completely thinks it's okay, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Hill first thanked him, and then said, "Can I bring my assistant there?"

Lake raised his eyebrows: "That Lieutenant Sullivan?"

"Yes."

"Of course, I'll arrange it!"

"thanks."

"..."
