Outside the ward.
"Jack!"
Lake said to Jack, "I'm going to the court. Remember, if anyone comes to rob me, stop them. I'll take care of it if anything goes wrong. Call me if you need anything."
Jack nodded in response.
Lake went straight to the elevator and prepared to go to the New York court to ask his old friend for an exemption order.
Orthodox federal exemptions are no longer possible.
but...
A court-signed immunity order is still possible. Although it is not as effective as a federal immunity order, it can at least ensure that Megan Walsh will not be prosecuted for any crime based on the information she provided.
New York Court.
"what would you like?"
"An exemption order."
Lake sat on the sofa and told his old friend Laura Birch about Megan Walsh and the information she would provide.
Laura Birch took off her glasses, rubbed her brows, and looked at Lake with some confusion: "You should know that I am in a critical period now."
In two months, the first judge of the New York court will be finally selected.
Thanks to the textile factory incident last year, Laura Birch had basically secured victory, but the Disabled Persons' Federation and some other organizations were lobbying, so there were still some changes.
reason?
Who made Laura Birch sign the search warrant, which led to the textile factory becoming ruins and caused the Disabled Persons' Federation to lose more than a thousand jobs? This is a case of there is always a gain and a loss.
So Laura Birch has been acting cautiously recently and doing nothing. No matter how the Disabled Persons' Federation lobby, the position of first judge will still be hers.
Lake remained true to his usual self: "I offer 100% guarantee for this information."
Laura Birch looked at Lake. "Are you sure?"
Lake chuckled and said, "You can also give me an unregistered one. I just want to use this exemption order to make her speak. Then, I will get an exemption order from the Ministry of Justice."
Laura Birch had an epiphany.
Even if you get ten exemption orders without filing, they will be useless.
but...
If this were to be leaked, the risk would also be considerable. At the very least, if the suspect hired a lawyer to question this point, there would still be a certain risk.
However, due to the cooperation between Lake and her, Laura Birch signed her name on a waiver order.
only.
Just as Lake took the immunity order from Laura Birch.
The phone rang.
Jack's.
New Amsterdam Hospital.
Lake walked out of the elevator with an expressionless face and looked at the ward, where the situation was tense.
Jack and his men faced off against a group of men in black with their guns pointed.
Lake came over.
Jack looked at Lake: "They're taking Megan Walsh away."
Lake nodded, then looked at the woman leading the team, who was dressed in work clothes. He took a look and sneered, "I thought it would be the FBI, but it turned out to be from Langley."
The leading Langley female agent, Van Doren, extended her hand toward Lake: "Hello, I'm Van Doren, Senior Special Agent Lake Edwin."
Lake didn't bother to reach out: "Just tell me why you took my suspect away."
"We have intelligence sources that the suspect you detained is a member of a killer organization abroad."
"so what."
"This is a transfer order signed by the federal court. I hope you will cooperate."
"…"
Lake took the transfer order from Van Doren's hand with an expressionless face, and saw the name signed by Judge Hall of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia.
at the same time.
Van Doren took out his phone, made a call, said a few words, and then handed it to Lake.
Lake took it.
A call from the top boss, Secretary John Kelly.
"Lake."
"minister."
"Hand him over."
"…Is it okay if I don't give it to you?"
Secretary Kelly, who was at the Washington headquarters, was amused when he heard Lake's words. He then rubbed his brow and said directly, "The Vice President called personally to inquire about it."
Lake raised his eyebrows and looked at Van Doren in front of him.
Good job.
The vice president has been released, what is this, a direct dimensionality reduction attack?
sure.
This time, SHIELD learned its lesson and did not show up, not giving Lake any chance to find any evidence. It directly handed the person over to Langley, and then took the person back from Langley.
Damn it.
Why is my version of Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D. so difficult to deal with?
After Lake hung up the phone, he thought to himself with an expressionless face.
Federal Agent Van Doren reminded, "Agent Edwin."
Lake came back to his senses: "Edwin, Senior Special Agent, not Agent."
Van Doren nodded. "Senior Special Agent Edwin, can we hand him over now?"
Lake's thoughts raced.
Next second.
Lake smiled: "Of course."
Said.
Lake handed the transfer order to Jack and gave him a look: "Make me a copy."
Jack understood, took the transfer order, and prepared to borrow the hospital's copier.
SHIELD didn't show up, the Vice President had spoken, and his own boss, Secretary Kelly, couldn't stand it anymore. Lake thought about it and felt that there was no need to continue.
Not worth it.
Anyway, he is sure to defeat SHIELD this time.
If it doesn't work openly, then try it secretly.
You can do some cool moves, and so can I, and I'm even better than you.
Come.
Whoever is a coward is a puppy!
As Lake waited for the photocopy to come back, he smiled and said to Agent Van Doren in front of him, "Langley has been through two ordeals, and apparently, he hasn't been tormented enough. No, he's been severely damaged and is starting to become someone's lackey."
Since Langley chose to stand on the side of SHIELD, he is the enemy.
For the enemy.
Lake has always been very rude. There is no such thing as admitting defeat first. Lake has never been a coward in his life and will confront anyone who comes his way.
Van Doren just smiled and chose not to reply.
soon.
The copy arrived.
Lake put the copy away and handed the original to Van Doren: "Keep it and don't lose it. The people inside are yours. Keep an eye on them and don't lose them."
"That's not something Homeland Security needs to worry about," Van Doren said.
Lake smiled and looked at Jack: "Let's go."
Just go.
Lake didn't hesitate at all. He had already given the warning. If Langley wanted to kill himself, don't blame Lake for being rude.
Outside the hospital.
In the car.
Lake and Jack were in the same car.
"How many copies did you make?"
"Two."
"Is everything alright?"
"No."
Jack shook his head and said, "I asked Martha to help make the second copy. There's no surveillance there."
Martha is Jack's wife, the one who was talking to Jack in the corridor just now.
Lake nodded and pointed to the intersection ahead: "Take your copy back for record, remember to keep it safe."
Jack nodded: "Don't worry."
In the evening.
Continental Hotel.
Lake looked at Lister, who had once again arrived from Texas, exhausted and dusty, and shook his hand. "I'm sorry, I didn't want you to come all the way here, but you guys are being dishonest."
Liszt quickly said, "I'm sorry, we have tried to get this done."
Lake didn't say anything.
Lister naturally knew what Lake meant by this unkind remark, but they also wanted to interfere. Unfortunately, they really had no chance to do so.
When Alexander received a call from Nick Fury, he realized that Riker and the Black King were planning to play a win-win cooperation trick this time.
Can...
Alexander really wanted to make this happen, but the Secret Service Academy was the source of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s loyal agents, and Alexander was still the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. on the surface. If he was passive and lazy about this matter, Nick Fury or other interested people in S.H.I.E.L.D. would inevitably find out something, so this time he could only stand on Nick Fury's side to protect this matter.
Do you think Alexander would like this?
Most of the people at the Secret Service Academy are Peggy Carter's subordinates. To put it bluntly, they are die-hard fans of S.H.I.E.L.D. It has been a while since Hydra wanted to destroy this base. After all, it is rare for numbered agents produced by the Secret Service Academy to defect to Hydra.
Lake shook his head and said, "Megan Walsh doesn't conform to my rules for accepting orders, and this time you put me and my friend in a passive position."
Liszt said directly: "I'm sorry, this matter is indeed because of us. Although this deal cannot be completed, this is the bank account with one million in it. As our apology, I hope Mr. Black King understands that we respect you very much."
Lake looked at the note on the table in front of him.
Yosi.
Lake calmly put the note away and smiled. "Actually, this matter is not a big deal. I just don't want it to affect our friendship. Let's talk it out. Respect is mutual. I hope Mr. Lister can understand."
One million dollars is very sincere.
This shows that Hydra still respects him very much.
Lake was very satisfied.
Liszt smiled and said, "Of course, we can understand. We just don't know about the previous order?"
Lake said, "Can the target still come to New York?"
Liszt's expression was a little conflicted. They were sure before, but now they are not sure anymore.
Nothing else.
NO.1 Victoria Knowles was captured by NO.83 Megan Walsh. Hydra has already told Victoria Knowles, who escaped successfully this morning, the news that Megan Walsh is in New York.
According to the original script, Victoria Knowles was going to come to New York to kill the No. 83 assassin schoolmate who was trying to capture her.
But right now?
The Black King doesn't play by the rules either. If it doesn't conform to your rules for accepting orders, you should just not accept it. As a result, he told his friends, which led to a complete explosion of the plot.
Now even Hydra is not sure whether Victoria Knowles will come to New York. After all, Hydra is very cautious. After all, their situation requires them to dive deep, deeper than those Russian agents.
Lake chuckled. "So, you can't take that order?"
Liszt hesitated for a moment and said, "Please rest assured, Mr. Black King, we will try our best to make the target appear in New York. If she doesn't show up, the one million bounty will be paid in full as compensation, but..."
Lake smiled and said, "Please speak."
"Maybe the deadline needs to be extended a bit," Lister said.
"how long?"
"...half a month? How about that?"
"good."
"…"
