This girl seemed extremely out of place in the crowd, as if there was an extra drop of ink in the originally harmonious painting style, and that drop of ink attracted everyone's attention.
but...
What Lake paid attention to was not the girl's clothes, but something else.
This is a killer.
Moreover, seeing that he was dressed strangely but he did not feel anything unusual, he should be a killer who had been trained in the organization since childhood and it seemed that this was the first time he escaped on his own.
After all, it falls within the scope of his main business, so Lake made such a judgment after just one glance.
If it is a free killer, it is difficult to tell at first glance. After all, those free killers grow up in the wild and have nothing in common.
But it's different when it's organized.
Organized means assembly line.
The model they use to train killers is similar to that of a factory. Killers are sent to the assembly line and trained according to the model they specify. Naturally, these killers all have certain specific and distinctive characteristics.
M Killer Group?
Lake immediately shook his head. Although the M Killer Group also trained female killers from a young age, they spent more time teaching them seduction than killing techniques. If a woman came from the M Killer Group, she should be sexy, not like this...
Eye-catching?
"Hi, J."
"Gwen."
"What's wrong with that girl?"
"I'm not sure. I heard it's a new exchange student from the twelfth grade, from Liz Larson's family."
"Thanks."
Lake listened to the conversation between Gwen and her classmates and took note of the name.
soon.
Lake and George parted at the school gate. George went back to the New York Police Department, while Lake returned to the National Land Building.
Sixteenth floor!
"Tiffany."
"Sir."
"Help me find some information about Liz Larson and her new exchange student."
"OK."
An organized killer suddenly appeared in Midtown High School, and pretended to be going to school. Who would believe this?
Lake certainly didn't believe it.
This person must have some ulterior motive.
After Lake gave instructions to his assistant, he walked into the office. The door of the office next door opened. David Bass listened to the conversation between Tiffany and Lake and knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
"Lake."
Lake, who had just walked to the wine cabinet, turned his head to look at David who had come in, greeted him, and raised his glass: "Would you like a drink?"
David said, "It's time to go to work."
Lake shrugged, poured himself a glass, and took a sip: "What a pity, I have to drink it alone."
David: "…"
Three months have passed since Lake's hands-off approach to the operation, and David doesn't know whether to be thankful or to ask Minister Kelly to replace the assistant director of operations.
At first, David was very glad that he had a capable and hands-off partner, but three months later, David suddenly realized that it was not as simple as just a matter of hands-off. It was a situation where he was busy all day long while his partner was living a life of drunkenness and not caring about anything.
This made David feel a little bad.
The image of a farmer and his serfs came into David's mind.
Something is wrong.
David shook his head and quickly came back to his senses, thinking about the news he had just heard outside and the file delivered to Lake's office this morning: "Any action taken?"
Lake looked at David, was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I can't be sure for the time being."
Paused.
Lake invited David to sit down and looked at him curiously: "If a killer went to a high school and appeared to be attending school, would you believe it?"
David laughed heartily. "April Fool's Day is over, Lake."
Lake nodded: "I thought so too."
look.
It's not that Lake is being paranoid, but this is simply unscientific. A killer shouldn't just go kill people instead of going to school. Is he crazy? Even if he goes to further studies, he should go to university instead of high school.
Not everyone can be like Lake, who spans two industries, with a main job as a killer and a part-time law enforcer. This is not another "Fight Back to School".
Besides.
In the game "Play Back to School", law enforcement officers pretend to be students.
David's eyes fell on Lake's desk, where the file just passed to him by the BATF was. "You want to investigate this arms smuggler?"
Lake looked up at David: "You know?"
David nodded, then asked curiously, "This case doesn't involve our national security, does it?"
Lake shrugged. "I received information from an informant that this arms dealer may appear in New York in the near future. It's not clear what he's doing there, but any arms dealer is a potential terrorist."
Arms smugglers have nationalities, but in fact they no longer have nationalities. They give arms to whoever has more money. Most of the terrorists' arms are obtained through these people.
The Department of Homeland Security pursues any terrorist who poses a threat to the Commonwealth.
nature.
The arms smugglers who possess a large amount of arms and may turn into terrorists at any time are also within the scope of pursuit.
but...
David shook his head and laughed: "Then your informant must be unreliable."
Lake raised an eyebrow: "Oh?"
David said: "About a month ago, Victoria Knowles was successfully arrested by an international law enforcement agency. At that time, Victoria Knowles was conducting an arms deal in the Cape of Good Hope and was caught red-handed."
"An international law enforcement agency?"
"Um."
David nodded and said, "When the file was delivered just now, you were not here. The BATF agent told me about it and thought we were going to take over the case. I asked someone and found out that the suspect has been arrested."
Lake smiled slightly and said, "It seems that the person you are looking for has great power."
David stood up and said, "You have an informant, and I have one too. It's all for work. Okay, I'm leaving too."
Lake nodded.
soon.
David leaves.
The office door was closed.
Lake glanced at the file on the table, thinking about what David had just said.
Victoria Knowles has been arrested?
And he was arrested by an international law enforcement agency that doesn't even deserve a name?
S.H.I.E.L.D.?
Lake blinked. After all, if it was Interpol that arrested him, there would be a specific name. But David just said that the arrest was successfully made by an international law enforcement agency. So who else could it be except S.H.I.E.L.D., which doesn't even deserve a name?
and...
This order was placed by Hydra. Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D. are sworn enemies. In this case, Lake could easily associate it with S.H.I.E.L.D.
Something is wrong.
If Victoria Knowles was captured by S.H.I.E.L.D., then, according to normal reasoning, shouldn't Hydra give orders to rescue people instead of killing them?
Shouldn't the arrest of someone by SHIELD indicate that Victoria Knowles is a member of Hydra?
