When Bucky Barnes heard this question, which was similar to trigger point language, it seemed as if a switch was turned on.
Immediately following.
Bucky Barnes spoke up.
"What... do you want to know?"
Bucky Barnes spoke in Russian, and it seemed that he had not spoken for a long time, causing his voice to be as dry as a crow's.
but...
He spoke.
Sitting in the chair, Short looked up at the camera, as if he was taking credit, or as if he was asking for instructions.
Sunil coughed and cleared his throat: "Ask him, he is..."
Lake raised his eyebrows and interrupted directly: "Wait a minute!"
Sunil stopped talking and looked at Lake.
Minister Kelly and the Deputy Director of the FBI also looked at Lake, their eyes seemed to be asking something.
Lake smiled brightly and said, "Director Bakshi may have a poor memory due to his age."
Sunil Bakshi laughed, not at all angry at Lake's venomous words, and said, "Sorry, I don't understand."
Lake looked at Sunil Bakshi with a smile on his face. "This is a DHS case, Director Bakshi."
Sunil raised his eyebrows, then smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, my mistake, I thought this was a joint operation case, I was reckless."
Said.
Sunil looked specifically at Minister Kelly.
Although Sunil did not speak to Secretary Kelly, there was no doubt that this glance was to express whether you are the one in charge of the Department of Homeland Security or an assistant director.
Minister Kelly looked at Lake, and considering that this was a case involving a joint operation between three departments, he said, "Lake..."
Lake interrupted again: "Minister, do you remember July of 1993?"
Minister Kelly frowned.
That year, a rebellion broke out in a small country in the Middle East. Since the president of that small country was pro-Federal, the Federation sent a combat team to join the battlefield, and the team selected was the one led by Lake.
after.
The rebellion was quelled.
The current Secretary of Homeland Security, Kelly, was the federal prosecutor at the time and was on vacation there, so Secretary Kelly personally participated in the rebellion, or rather, Secretary Kelly was a good friend of the rebel leader at the time. That was the first time Lake met with Secretary Kelly, and because of Secretary Kelly, Lake did not follow the instructions to blow up the rebel leader's head.
It was later proved that this was a drama directed and performed by the president of a small country. His purpose was to use the federal government to eliminate his political opponents in tomorrow's election and then cover up the evidence of his intention to betray the federation.
Lake said this, then shrugged: "It's not impossible for the story to repeat itself."
All right.
Hydra really intended to turn this crisis into an opportunity, and even took Lake into account, using him as a prop.
Good job.
Lake exclaimed in his heart, this version of Hydra is completely different from what he saw in the movie. What happened to the Hydra that was said to have no intelligence and could only use violence?
Compared to the Hydra in the movie that performs all kinds of stupid operations, this real-life version of Hydra is simply performing one stupid operation after another, almost like cheating.
One sentence.
If Short appears, then there is indeed an organization that can help Hydra take the blame.
Before the collapse of the former Soviet Union, it launched a spy program called "Deep Dive" against the Federation. This organization called "Deep Dive" lurking on the current federal land happened to have some members lurking in the CIA, and even some were lurking in various federal agencies.
Use the Winter Soldier who is already planned to be sacrificed to lure out this organization that has been lurking deep in the water and has not been discovered until now, so that this organization can help Hydra take the blame and attract firepower while also whitewashing the hidden dangers left by the Winter Soldier.
This is simply killing two birds with one stone.
If Lake is included, wow, this is already a three-star combo.
Others don't know about this deep-cover organization, but Hydra does. The reason is the same as in the movie, only an undercover agent can clearly sense the existence of another undercover agent.
"Sir."
Seeing no response, Shao Te left the interrogation room and said, "What should we do next?"
Minister Kelly, who had been sitting there lost in thought, came back to his senses, coughed, said to Short, "Wait a moment," then looked up at Lake: "What suggestions do you have, Director Edwin?"
Lake looked at the time on his watch: "It's almost ten o'clock, almost noon, how about taking a break first?"
Sunil Bakshi frowned: "Mr. Minister, time waits for no one. My people have already opened a gap..."
Lake looked directly at Sunil. "I've already spoken. There's no difference between saying it now and saying it this afternoon. Director Bakshi seems very anxious. Is it my illusion?"
Sunil looks at Laker.
Lake's smile is still as bright as spring breeze.
Sunil spread his hands and said, "No, this is Director Edwin's case. I am just offering a suggestion in good faith."
Lake touched his chin and looked at Sunil. "Okay, thank you for your kindness, Director Bakshi. However, I still want to say that I am very stubborn and don't like to listen to anyone's opinions. So, in order to avoid me misunderstanding that Director Bakshi has ulterior motives or thinking that Director Bakshi is in cahoots with this person, it's better not to make any more suggestions. If you encounter someone with a hot temper, they might just shoot you dead."
Sunil: "…"
I want to see how you plan to continue this scene.
When Lake stood up and left the meeting room with Minister Kelly, he turned his head, glanced at Sunil who was still in the meeting room, and smiled slightly, thinking so in his heart.
Even if you want to act, you have to follow my rhythm.
What does it mean to play with fire and get burned?
I will teach you.
Minister's Office.
After Kelly invited Lake to sit down, he opened a bottle of wine and walked over: "I remember you like bourbon, right, Lake."
Lake nodded: "A soft spot."
Two glasses of wine were poured.
Minister Kelly handed Lake the bourbon. "I suppose you've met David?"
Lake nodded. "We just talked about it when we entered the conference room. When I first met him, I thought he was a Martian. Haha, but I believe we will have a pleasant cooperation."
David Bass.
An African-American federal with a capable appearance and bright eyes. When Lake first met him, he felt like he was seeing a superwoman in his leader. But that was a good thing, as he could be seen at first glance as a very motivated supervisor. Although Lake was not very satisfied with his skin color, by working with such a person, Lake felt that he could spend more time on his main business.
If he partners with a guy who just wants to get by, Lake will inevitably have to spend most of his time on this part-time job for the sake of performance, which goes against Lake's original intention.
Kelly smiled, clinked glasses with Lake, and after chatting about work for a while, he said, "You seem to have some different opinions on this interrogation. Can you tell me about it?"
Lake shrugged.
