Chapter 780 Chatting, Camping
5:30 pm, Washington DC, "Insomnia Building", special investigation team office area.
After reading Thomas' interrogation record, Winslow, Chenier, Lacey, Mona and Michelle all looked unhappy.
The other party's behavior of hiring a killer to kill the whole family for the sake of an illegitimate child was too bad and disgusting.
Mona cursed in a low voice, turned her head and looked at Luo An, and found that Luo An was facing away from them, with his hands folded in front of his chest, concentrating on watching the TV at the front of the office area.
Mona walked to Luo An, looked at the TV and asked in confusion:
"Luo An, what are you watching?"
Luo An picked up a cup of coffee and handed it to Mona, and took a sip of coffee himself, and smiled:
"I am watching the breeze and sunshine before the storm."
[Polonium 210 Case] ended, and the time has officially entered January 2007.
At this time, the TV was broadcasting a financial news that many people don't like to watch.
The female reporter on TV said that the second largest subprime mortgage company in the federal government, New Century Financial, was suspected of having a business crisis or operating crisis recently.
The company's senior management denied this externally, claiming that the company's business was normal and the operating profit was still considerable, but many senior executives began to quietly sell the company's shares...
After watching the news on TV for a while, Mona didn't understand what Luo An meant, and asked:
"Do you want to short this company's stock?"
Mona's computer knowledge and technology are experts, but her knowledge of finance can only be said to know basic words.
"I had this idea, but forget it."
Luo An put down his coffee cup and shook his head.
The subprime mortgage crisis is the prelude to the financial crisis, the housing market decline is the prelude to the subprime mortgage crisis, and the bankruptcy of New Century Financial is the whistle that the federal housing market began to fall.
New Century Financial declared bankruptcy in April 2007. Now it is January, and there are still about three months.
With this information flashing through his mind, Luo An smiled and patted Mona's shoulder, who looked confused, and then walked towards Lacey and others and asked:
"What are you talking about?"
"We are talking about Thomas and his illegitimate child."
Lacey shook the folder in her hand, and asked with undisguised dissatisfaction in her eyes:
"What did Mr. Clement say? Do you want our special investigation team to catch the illegitimate child?"
Luo An shook his head, took the folder and said:
"Mr. Clement has already sent other agents to deal with this matter. We don't need to intervene."
Chenelle frowned:
"Then we..."
"We handle the cases in our hands."
Luo An shook the folder and said:
"This case looks like one case, but it is actually several cases linked together.
"Blue-eyed Roy" murder case, CIA director sent agents to silence witnesses, Verines poisoning case, nuclear laboratory director kidnapped and black-eating black case..."
In addition, there is the "Integrity and Rules Office Information Leak" incident.
Luo An shook his head helplessly, these cases need to be filed separately.
Thomas's case in the early years was transferred to other investigation teams by Mr. Clement for handling, in fact, to share some pressure with Luo An's special investigation team.
"No problem."
Michelle raised her hand and gave Luo An an OK gesture, indicating that she would leave this to her.
"Don't worry, we have plenty of time."
Luo An smiled and explained briefly. Seeing that it was almost time to get off work, he changed the subject and asked:
"Everyone, after handling this case, we can rest for a few days. Do you have any ideas?"
"No."
All the detectives shook their heads. They were used to resting for a few days after handling a case, or resting with their families, reading and sleeping, or going to nightclubs for fun.
Seeing that no one had any ideas, Luo An thought for a moment and said:
"How about we go camping together someday?"
"Camping?"
When Lacey heard the word, her eyes lit up instantly, and she quickly raised her hand and asked:
"The kind that sets up tents at night? Can I bring family members?"
"..."xN
Everyone looked at Lacey speechlessly, and Winslow complained:
"Where do you get your family members?"
Lacey put her hands on her hips, glanced at Winslow, and said:
"Doesn't a girlfriend count as a family member?"
The agents were all black, and Luo An rubbed his temples and asked helplessly:
"Who is your girlfriend? The girl with long red hair named Susan?"
"First of all, the girl's name is Lily, not Susan. You remembered their names wrong."
Lacey shook her finger seriously and introduced:
"Second, the Lily you are talking about is my girlfriend two months ago. My girlfriend this month is Sophia, a college student who came to Washington, DC for an internship in a government department."
"...SIX."
Roan's mouth twitched, and he gave Lacey a thumbs up, then selectively ignored her question again, looked at the others and asked:
"What about you? Do you have time?"
"No problem for me."
Winslow spread his hands and smiled, saying:
"Lanita resigned from the company she used to work for, and she has nothing to do recently, so we can just go out for a picnic together."
"No problem for us."
Chenelle and Michelle have always been alone, and they have nothing to do during the holidays. They smiled at each other and nodded in agreement.
"OK."
Roan smiled, pushed Lacey who was still asking if she could bring her girlfriend, and asked:
"Do you have any good suggestions for the camping site?"
"I know a good place!"
Mona raised her hand, and Roan added immediately after she started:
"By the way, try not to choose places that are rarely visited... Try not to choose lakeside cabins."
Not choosing places that are rarely visited is for safety reasons, and Winslow's son is still young this year.
As for not choosing a lakeside cabin... the main reason is that the name sounds unlucky.
Mona rolled her eyes, found her laptop, tapped on the keyboard and pulled up a photo with a very beautiful view, and said:
"How about we go to Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming? It is one of the best places for camping in the federation!"
Chenelle and Michelle nodded:
"I think it's okay."
Winslow also raised an OK gesture:
"I have no problem."
Roan finally looked at Lacey, who frowned and said:
"Yellowstone National Park... I remember that you need to grab a spot to camp there."
" That's true."
Mona tapped the keyboard a few times to call up the relevant information, then showed the screen to everyone and said with a smile:
"But the quota is first come first served, I think it's no problem for us."
Lacey smiled and said:
"OK, then I have no problem."
Luo An picked up the coffee and drank it all, and said with a smile:
"Then everyone prepares these days, and we will set off together in four days."
"No problem!"xN
The laughter in the office area continued, and after a while of laughter, it was time to get off work. Everyone drove their own cars out of the building and went home to rest.
Luo An and Mona returned to the villa and first called the service company that cleaned the villa. After the service staff cleaned the villa that had been unoccupied for the past few days, they started to make dinner together.
After dinner, they rested for a while and went upstairs to wash and prepare for bed. Because they were too tired these days, Mona was not in the mood to play games, and fell asleep quickly when she lay on the bed.
Luo An was not in a hurry to sleep. He closed his eyes and opened the light blue page.
