Chapter 615 April Fool’s Day, House, News

Luo An finally rejected Veranith's proposal, mainly because the code name "Pangolin" sounded unlucky.

The code name Luo An finally chose was "April Fool's Day", which had no special meaning simply because his birthday was April 1st, and that day was April Fool's Day.

Returning to the office of the leader of Investigation Team 13 with the document bag in hand, Luo An sat on a chair, looking at the documents and lost in thought.

Dong dong dong——

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the team leader's office. Luo An came to his senses, quickly put away his ID and said:

"Enter."

"it's me."

The person who opened the door and entered the office was Mona. She held an envelope in her hand, shook it and said:

"I just called downstairs and said that I have your letter. After inspection, it was confirmed that it is not a dangerous item, so I will have it delivered to you."

"OK, thank you."

Mona turned around and left. Luo An took the envelope and opened it. He looked down and found a familiar item inside.

It is the certificate and appointment letter of the [Federal National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA)-Secret Agent].

There was also a capital H in the corner of the envelope, and Luo An instantly understood that this was the abbreviation of female reporter Louise Hernandez.

Luo An rubbed his temples helplessly. He just got the secret agent certificates of 5 departments from Veranith. With this book, he actually became 6 federations in just a few days. A secret agent of the government.

Luo An lined up the six documents. The Federal Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) is a foreign military intelligence organization under the Ministry of Defense, which mainly includes federal embassies in other countries and foreign military attachés.

The federal National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), part of the Department of Defense, is responsible for coordinating, collecting and analyzing intelligence collected from space shuttles and satellites.

The federal Office for National Security Intelligence (ONSI), part of the Ministry of Justice, is responsible for collecting intelligence information on drug trafficking organizations.

The Coast Guard Intelligence (CGI), part of the Department of Homeland Security, handles all types of maritime law enforcement matters.

The federal National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), part of the federal Department of Defense, is an agency primarily responsible for collecting, analyzing and disseminating geographical intelligence.

And an old acquaintance, the federal National Security Agency (NSA), part of the Department of Defense, is responsible for collecting and analyzing foreign and domestic communications data.

Luo An was speechless repeatedly, and then suddenly discovered that he worked in the FBI, and with these documents, it seemed that he had reasons and identities to intervene in most incidents that occurred in the federation.

"Unfortunately, there is no CIA."

Luo An put the certificate away and hid it. It didn't matter if there was no CIA. Whether it was DIA or NSA, they could pretend to be CIA.

When encountering certain things in the future, Luo An's complete identity was layered one after another, which dazzled others.

After taking a break and walking out of the team leader's office, Luo An saw everyone in the office area chatting around Lacey, so he walked up and asked with a smile:

"What are you talking about?"

Michelle brought Luo An a cup of coffee and said with a smile:

"Lacie plans to buy a house and is asking us to study the layout and structure of several houses."

Luo An was stunned for a moment and looked at Lacey in surprise:

"Are you planning to buy a house?"

"That's right!"

Lacey chuckled, picked up a few packages of snacks from her desk and gave them to Luo An, with her hands on her hips and she said proudly:

"I've saved enough money to buy a house!"

“And it’s the price of two houses.”

Mona patted Lacey on the shoulder and smiled:

"Lacie is awesome!"

"I'm not great, Luo An is great."

Lacey hugged Mona's arm, looked at Luo An with a smile, gave Luan a thumbs up, and said:

"If Luo An hadn't helped me with advice, suggested that I buy stocks in Apple, Microsoft and other companies, and several investigation teams would have taken me along along the way, I wouldn't have been able to accomplish my small life goals so quickly."

Although Luo An often eats the snacks purchased by Lacey and often bullies Lacey when there is no case, among the people in the No. 13 Investigation Team, apart from Mona, it is Lacey who trusts Luo An the most.

Michelle, Winslow, and Chenelle also believed in Roan very much, but none of them had the trust that Lacey had developed through so much experience together over so long.

Winslow, Chenelle and Michelle were also happy for Lacey. They had no jealous feelings. Firstly, Lacey had been following Luo An for the longest time. Secondly, they had a lot of income and were able to complete their respective goals. Just a matter of time.

Compared with the excited people, Luo An was very calm. He picked up several house model pictures and other information that Lacey was interested in and looked at them. He was silent for a few seconds and said:

"Lacey, I suggest you don't buy two houses at the same time."

"Um?"

Several people were stunned for a moment, and Lacey was a little confused:

"Why?"

"You have to think more about the risks."

Luo An did not discuss topics such as the financial crisis, but explained:

“You do have the ability to buy two houses at the same time, but you are just one person and cannot live in two houses at the same time.

In addition, after you buy two houses, you don't have much money left in your hand, and the risk factor is too high. It is better to just buy one house and keep the rest of the money to continue making money for you in the stock market. "

"That makes sense."

Winslow, Chenelle and Michelle nodded and turned their attention to Lacey. Lacey didn't think much and immediately nodded and accepted Roan's proposal:

"OK, then I'll buy a house.

Luan, do you think it's better to live in New York or in Washington, D.C.? "

“The ones in Washington, D.C. are better.”

Luo An threw the sample pictures and other information in his hand back on the table and said with a smile:

"We are working in Washington, D.C., and you still have to stay in Investigation Team 13 and work for me."

"cut--"

Lacey rolled her eyes, Roan laughed, and they laughed for a moment. Lacey threw aside the information about the house in New York, and they began to discuss the situation of the house in Washington, DC.

During the lunch break, Luo An stood in front of the coffee machine in the lounge and ground coffee for himself. At this moment, Mona came over.

Luo An poured her a cup of coffee. Mona took the cup and looked at Luo An and said:

"I thought you were going to advise Lacey not to buy a house anytime soon."

"Yeah?"

Luo An picked up the coffee, took a sip, and asked with a smile:

"Why do you think so?"

"Because you said before that you are not optimistic about the current housing prices in the federation."

Mona stared at Luo An and said:

"You think there's something wrong with it, and you suggest that I don't buy a house as an investment."

Luo An's eyes moved slightly and he asked with a smile:

"You think I'm trying to hurt Lacey?"

Mona didn't say anything, just looked at Luo An quietly.

Luo An smiled, put down the coffee cup, and said:

“Don’t worry, I didn’t trick Lacey.

You also said just now that you plan to buy a house for investment, while Lacey plans to buy a house of her own to live in. The situation is different. "

Mona frowned slightly:

"But the price..."

Luo An shook his head:

“In the short term, there may be problems with housing prices.

But don't forget, this is Washington, D.C., and the houses Lacey looked at are all in wealthy areas. "

Washington, D.C., is the political center of the federal government. It is no exaggeration to say that every inch of land in the area closest to the center is at a premium.

After the subprime mortgage crisis, housing prices in Washington, D.C. also fell off a cliff, but they were quickly lifted up, and the people who took action were naturally some big capital and conglomerates.

If Lacey planned to buy a house for investment, she would definitely lose money after the mortgage crisis.

But Lacey only plans to buy a house to live in. Falling house prices are only a short-term problem for her. In the long run, her house will continue to appreciate in value.

As for why Lacey wasn't allowed to buy real estate when housing prices fell, it was because Luo An was very worried that Lacey wouldn't be able to grab those shark-like big capital and consortiums.

"All right."

After hearing Luo An's explanation, Mona breathed a sigh of relief. Luo An stepped forward and hugged Mona gently, and asked in a low voice:

"What, are you afraid that I will cheat my own team members?"

"No, I just..."

Mona was silent for a moment, put her arms around Luo An's waist, and put her head on his chest. Just as she was about to say something, Lacey's shouting, getting closer and closer, suddenly came from not far away:

"Luo An! Come out! You're on the news!"
