Chapter 267 Case ends Hollywood cult dinner

Hearing Veranith's words and seeing the smile on her face, Deputy Team Leader Luo An also grinned.

However, some questions still need to be asked in advance:

“What about the members of this investigation team?”

  “The team leader decides to recruit at his own discretion.”

 “Where are the funds for the investigation team?”

“Distributed directly by the local FBI branch finance department.”

After asking several questions in succession, deputy team leader Luo An had a bright smile on his face and closed the folder:

“Thank you, sir, I will definitely live up to your expectations.”

"I trust you."

Veranith nodded, she trusted Luo An in solving the case.

However, Luo An will assume the responsibility of the leader of the investigation team in the future, so Veranith briefly explained to him some problems he may encounter in the future, as well as the corresponding solutions.

 Luo An memorized it in his mind seriously. This kind of knowledge is more important than solving crimes. After all, people with guns cannot play politics.

Seeing Luo An’s attitude of listening carefully, Veranith was even more satisfied and said that she would call her in time if she encounters any problems in the future. Finally, she added:

“After all, these ten special investigation teams were set up by the Washington headquarters in ten major cities in the federal territory, so as long as they perform well, it may not take more than a year to be transferred to other cities.”

 “I understand, sir.”

Hearing this, Luo An patted the folder in his arms, then smiled and raised the coffee cup in his hand to Veranith.

Veranith also raised the corner of her mouth when she saw this, and raised the coffee cup in her hand again.

The sun shines into the office through the glass, and the air is slightly hot, but the two of them feel even hotter in their hearts.

　　——

 Leaving Veranith's office, Luo An held the folder in the corridor, thinking as he walked:

The personnel structure of this special investigation team cannot exceed 7 people, including 1 guy who is responsible for contacting other law enforcement agencies.

 Including himself, Mona and Lacey, there are actually only 3 people that Luo An can actually recruit.

 Luo An is the team leader...the deputy team leader, responsible for overall leadership.

Mona’s skills are all on the computer, so she can be responsible for computer-related technical work such as checking information and monitoring.

The difference between Lacey's skills lies in disguising her identity and searching for clues. The difference is that Lacey is good at finding clues offline, and her success rate is extremely high. Therefore, in the future, she will investigate suspects' interpersonal relationships offline, and perform disguise and role-playing work suitable for women. , she can be responsible for it.

“So, what expertise do the remaining three people need?”

 Luo An walked into the elevator with the folder and felt a little headache.

 Back to Investigation Team No. 5, there is still some confusion here.

There was no way. There were too many people arrested at once this time. Although Veranith also sent other investigation teams to temporarily help, they still could not completely solve the problem for a while.

But these had nothing to do with Roan as usual. He handed the folder he took from Veranis to Mona and Lacey. As soon as he explained it carefully, Augustus called him to his office and got it. Two folders.

One of the folders contained a notification of the reward for the "Murder Case of Dr. Flavia Farlan". Among them, the agents of the No. 5 Investigation Team each received US$2,000, and Luo An received US$4,000.

 Seeing the smile on Luo An's face, August couldn't help but sigh.

 After Luo An leaves for Los Angeles, the monthly salaries of the agents of their No. 5 Investigation Team will definitely drop a lot, and he, the leader of the investigation team, is no exception.

Augus patted his big belly and decided to do what Luo An did before he came to the No. 5 Investigation Team, go to Dillon's place for a drink after get off work.

Dillon:?

 Opening the second folder, the content inside was somewhat beyond Luo An's expectation, because it contained an interrogation record. "This is the interrogation record of Vincent, the youngest son of the deputy mayor of New York. When you went to Veranith's place, Lacey and I had already finished interrogating him."

Augustus straightened up, with a serious expression on his face:

“According to Vincent, the [Federal Youth Hobby Association] was an organization he joined when he was a student at the University of Southern California.

 In addition to him, many classmates also joined this association. "

“University of Southern California.”

 Looking at the text in front of him, Luo An's eyes narrowed slightly.

The University of California, also translated as the University of Southern California, referred to as the University of Southern California, was founded in 1880 by the Board of Regents. It is the oldest private research university on the west coast of the Commonwealth and a world-renowned institution of higher learning.

 The point is not the history of this school, but the location of this school in Los Angeles.

The Federal Juvenile Hobby Association was first established in San Francisco, where there is still a mailbox for the organization to receive money from others.

 The distance between San Francisco and Los Angeles only takes 6 hours by car and only 1 hour by plane.

Recalling some news from his previous life, Luo An raised his head and asked:

“Sir, there seem to be a lot of cults in Los Angeles or Hollywood, right?”

 “That’s right.”

Augustus nodded. There were too many rich people and celebrities in places like Hollywood, which naturally made them the targets of cults. Therefore, there were countless cults there, and they were of various types, including all kinds of weird teachings.

More importantly, although those celebrities look glamorous on the outside, they are actually very insecure. There is great pressure in the industry and they often feel that their talents are not in line with their reputation. Cults can easily give them a sense of belonging and a sense of belonging. Meaning of life beyond career.

 “Tsk tsk tsk.”

Luo An shook his head, closed the folder, and said with a smile:

“Thank you sir, I will pay more attention to this association of perverts when I am in Los Angeles.”

"That's good."

Augustus leaned back. The New York branch of this organization was led by Luo An to carry out such a heavy blow this time. It was impossible for the guys in the headquarters of this organization not to bear grudges against the FBI, so Augustus went out of his way to do it this time. Warn Luo An to be more careful in the future.

The two chatted briefly for a while, then Luo An got up and left the place and returned to his work station.

 Time soon came to off-duty time. The two cases had been solved and there was no need to work overtime, so the agents of the No. 5 Investigation Team came to the "Blue Tuna" barbecue restaurant not far from the Jacobs Building.

 “Cheers!”

 A group of agents raised their glasses and cheered loudly.

 After drinking the glass of wine, Augustus raised his glass again and proposed loudly:

“Everyone, let’s give a toast to Deputy Team Leader Luo An!”

Hearing August calling Luo An deputy team leader, all the agents at the wine table understood what he meant. After all, everyone already knew that Luo An and the others were going to Los Angeles in a few days.

 “Greetings to Luoan!”

"Thanks."

 Luo An raised his glass.

 The wine glasses fell and the atmosphere of the party cooled down a bit. However, as Luo An and Lacey took the initiative to joke around, laughter soon erupted again around the wine table.

 Because he had to go to work tomorrow to deal with the follow-up of this case, the banquet ended quickly, and the detectives also drove back to their homes in their own cars.

However, what surprised Luo An was that this time Lacey did not disappear with a certain waitress during the banquet. Instead, after the banquet, she got into Luo An and Mona's car.

Mona:…

  Luo An:?

　　　A new case in Los Angeles will start tomorrow. I wonder if any book friends have any suggestions for the new agents, such as their specialties and so on.''
