Lake suddenly had a half-baked idea.
Never before.
However, after meeting Black Widow Natasha Romanoff, I had this idea when I saw Anna.
but...
Lake asked Karen: "Does the general know about this?"
Karen shook her head.
They have become accustomed to the way Lake is addressed at home. After all, Lake was five years old when he was fostered here, and Karen and Ross did not ask Lake to change his address, so Lake basically calls Karen Karen at home. As for Ross, the address he used gradually became higher as time went by.
"have no idea."
Karen said, "Thaddeus has been at the base these days. I was thinking of coming back to tell him tonight."
No wonder.
Lake nodded after hearing what Karen said. If General Ross knew that Karen had living evidence against the CIA, he would have taken Karen to the military base long ago.
Karen really has a big heart.
If Langley had not been so cautious this time, this house with childhood memories would have been demolished by Langley yesterday.
Lake thought so, then looked at Anna and said, "Join the army."
"What?"
"What?"
"What?"
Lake looked at the three people who spoke in unison and seemed very surprised. He smiled and then looked at Anna: "When you chose to embark on this path, you should have known that you could not go back."
At least I can't go back to ordinary life.
This is why Lake chose to crowdsource this freelance killer.
Because whether you are an organization killer or an organization agent, there is only one way for you to exit, and that is death.
Escape is also possible.
Although there is a saying that it is better to live a miserable life than to die, if you really have to hide in some dark place like a mouse every day, honestly speaking, it would be better to die.
Anna was silent for a moment and then nodded. Ever since she knew that five years later would be forever, Anna often thought that it would have been better if she had simply waited for death to come after cutting her wrists.
Lake looked at Anna and said, "I know that at that time, the way you wanted to change yourself was to join the army, right?"
Anna looked up at Lake: "You..."
"I have an informant."
"…"
Lake shrugged his shoulders. All the questions that he couldn't explain clearly would be attributed to the informants who didn't exist at all. He was a policeman, and some of the informants were very reasonable.
Isn't it?
Lake said to Anna, "The witness protection program may allow you to live a so-called ordinary life, but joining the military will allow you to live an ordinary life without worrying about being hunted down. It only requires a little effort on your part."
Anna said, "What do I have to pay, or will it still be the same assassination?"
Lake laughed and said, "Do you know the difference between the Army and Langley?"
Anna didn't say anything.
Lake said: "The army has never disdained to kill people with women."
Anna: "…"
SEAL Team Six also frequently carries out assassinations.
but...
The military has never disdained to use women to kill people. At least, that's how the military people are. As for how those intelligence officers of Langley obtained intelligence, that's not the military's business.
Joining the army was the best option for Anna.
Otherwise, she can join S.H.I.E.L.D., just like Black Widow. Although she has left the Red Room, what is the difference between what she is doing now and when she was in the Red Room?
It's all the same killing, sacrificing beauty when necessary, the only difference may be that Black Widow's cage is now open.
Moreover, Black Widow only offended the Red House at that time, but what about Anna? Anna offended both the Red House and Langley at the same time. Given the nature of SHIELD, when Anna is no longer valuable, Lake would not find it strange to give her to Langley.
But it was different when Anna joined the army.
First of all, no matter how arrogant Langley was, he would not dare to assassinate military personnel on the mainland, at least not unless he went insane.
Secondly, who knows if SHIELD will poach Anna, who can rival Black Widow, after learning about her existence.
Anyway, they have already started a conflict with S.H.I.E.L.D. Although Lake has no intention of exposing his own cards for S.H.I.E.L.D., he will not sit idly by and watch S.H.I.E.L.D. grow stronger with just a few small companies.
Today's army is no longer the army of decades ago. At least, there are active female soldiers in the army today, although there are many scandals.
but...
Lake believed in Anna, and no one could take advantage of a female killer if Anna didn't want to.
"How about it?"
"What?"
Lake shrugged and said, "You may think I'm lying to you, but I can at least be sure that as long as you are in the army, Langley won't dare to cause trouble for you."
Anna said nothing, just looked at Karen.
Karen frowned and said, "I'm afraid the army won't allow her to join."
Lake smiled.
In an army where even drug addicts and murderers can join as long as they claim to have reformed, what's impossible about a killer joining, and a top female killer at that?
The same thing.
This country has no history. If the above-mentioned eight generations were to undergo censorship, then the military population of this country would probably be less than 100 people.
Lake said, "I think the general will definitely answer this question for you."
General Ross has been planning to establish a special commando team independent of the Navy SEALs but affiliated with the military since the year before last, or, a special agent team belonging to the military.
It is said that one was built last year.
Their nickname is something like Tianlang... or Tianlong's special forces team.
After all, during World War II, the most famous agencies were not Langley or the FBI. The most famous special agent team active on the battlefield was the military.
Code name, Howling Commandos!
General Ross wanted to rebuild the commando unit.
After Lake finished speaking, he stood up and said to Karen, "I have an appointment with Sheriff Porter to go to the police station to take a statement. There are police officers outside, I'll be there soon."
Finished.
Lake walked towards the door.
Betty, who was standing next to him, saw this and chased after him: "Wait for me, brother, I'll go with you, I'm also a witness."
Lake's mouth twitched.
You want to go out with me? You obviously want to go to the car and get your gun.
Lake turned and looked at Karen.
Karen shook her head and said, "I believe Anna can protect me."
Anna, standing in the shadows as if blending in, lowered her head, seemingly still thinking about what Lake had just said.
Lake took a look and nodded.
Langli just returned with a defeat, which has alerted the enemy. Unless Langli doesn't want to live, he will not send anyone over again.
At least they don't dare to send out any more death squad agents.
Go out.
There were three police cars parked at the door. At least, these people would not leave until General Ross brought people back.
