"Wait, what's coming one by one? What does that mean? Robert asked, puzzled.

Pete smiled and pointed to a chair in front of his desk and said, "Please sit down, we may have many more opportunities to argue about one thing like this in the future, although I don't want that... I guess it can't be avoided, so we have to develop good habits early and try not to make the atmosphere too tense. ”

Robert smiled awkwardly and said, "Okay." But let me be clear, I didn't make the atmosphere tense. ”

Pete didn't dwell on this issue, but after Robert sat down, he said, "Your problem just now is that there can only be one person who goes out at a time. I'll follow me personally, and you'll have to send someone with me. I think you're a good fit? ”

"One at a time? Going to Los Angeles? Robert was clearly unhappy with such an offer, "So you can only go out for two people a day at most?" ”

"Pretty much." Pete smiled and said, "Don't be dissatisfied. Now that it's just starting to recover, it's nice to have them in touch with people from outside. But we have to keep an eye on it, it's my duty, there's no need to bargain, that's my bottom line. ”

Seeing Pete's resolute look, Robert was silent for a moment and then sighed helplessly: "Okay then." But for the project to resume quickly, there will definitely be people going to Los Angeles every day, maybe for a week or more. ”

"Yes." "But there has to be a good reason," Pete said. I don't think I need to remind you that this project is yours and should be more important to you than we are, right? And this is just the beginning, and then maybe we can make a change, and I can take this opportunity to tell you that I don't think we have to travel all this way to Los Angeles, but we should be here in Novoko, and it will be much easier and more effective. But it's not up to me, you have to agree. ”

"You've got a good idea." Robert laughed and said, "But it's impossible to put people in Novoko. It's hard to complicate the periphery of this place, and it will give people who want to peek here. Your proposal will not be approved. ”

"It's your business to approve or not, and if you don't agree, you can only do as I said before. We've at least learned a lesson, right? You can't fall in one place in a row. Pete said.

Robert Sean sighed and said, "Where's your route?" Are you sure? ”

"I don't even know where your people are going right now, how can I be sure?" Pete thought for a moment and said, "It's better for me or you to determine a place to meet, a place dedicated to business docking and negotiation." This will not only make things more convenient, but also easier for us to control. ”

Robert thought for a moment and said, "This can be considered. We'll have to think about whether this location is up to you or ours, but I'll tell you in advance that if we do, there's no room for compromise either. ”

"Of course, I just ask for safety. As for what exactly it is, I believe in the sense of responsibility and operational ability of your Security Service. So that's not a problem, you can rest assured. Pete said, "The route will be confirmed after you decide on the location." I'll also say in advance that if you choose a place I'd like to go there in advance. ”

"That's fine." Robert Sean nodded and stood up, I'll report your request right away, and we'll have to meet with those in charge in the afternoon, at least let you know how many trips you'll need to make to Los Angeles. With that, he turned and left the office.

Watching Robert leave, Pete couldn't help but smile. He didn't care at all where the others went, and now he seemed to know what Adar Hassan was thinking, and I hope this guy wasn't too anxious.

About ten minutes later, Robert came to Pete's office again, this time his tone softened a lot: "We will decide the place, and the rest can be done as you say, but the time must be fast, and the day after tomorrow must be able to start." ”

"That's fine." Pete nodded and said, "Give me the location you have determined." The two of us went there in advance to have a look. ”

Robert smiled and said, "I don't think it's necessary. The place chosen by the Security Bureau must be a place that we often use, there can be no problem, of course, you can go and see if you are really not at ease, I have no objection to this. ”

"It's fine if you don't object, but you have to come with me." Saying that, Pete looked at Forde and said, "We should have some machines here that can be used to monitor or not, right?" ”

"Detectors to detect electronics?" Forde asked, turning his head.

"Yes. Do we have it here? Pete asked.

"Yes. I'll have someone arrange it right away. Fude said.

"I'm arranging two people for this kind of thing. Come with me tomorrow and check it out. Pete said.

Robert didn't say anything more and said, "It's okay tomorrow, I can go with you, but I have to emphasize that this is too inefficient, and I hope you can make a change as soon as possible." ”

"Yes." Pete said: "But it will only change if I thoroughly understand the people and things here." ”

"Two o'clock in the afternoon. Meeting room on the third floor. Don't be late. With that, Robert turned and left Pete's office.

While Pete was calling the shots at 33, in Los Angeles, Parker appeared downstairs from Nasri's Los Angeles office. He wasn't new to the area, in fact he had been around lately to see if anyone interested in Nasri had appeared.

Parker glanced around and came to a corner where he liked to hang out, pulled out a cigarette and smoked it. In the past two days, no suspicious signs have been found, and everything is calm. Combined with the intelligence he had collected before and his own speculation, it was definitely not Adar Hassan who had the accident in Novoko. It's just that this guy still hasn't heard from him so far, which is equivalent to losing contact. But even so, Parker decided to get Casey to end his supposed sabbatical and come back from the safe house. After all, you can't hide endlessly like this, since the other party has no action at all, you can't scare yourself to death. Everything has to go on, and maybe when that guy will suddenly get back in touch.

And if something really happens, Parker has also thought of a way to do it. If someone does find him, he will do his best to cover Casey's evacuation, and for this he has already gathered three men, two of whom include Wu, who helped him to find out about the situation in Novoco not long ago, and Richard Zhou.
