Chapter 197: Temptation
"What about you?" Wells asked, "You're not going to be transferred, you're going to have to stay here, you're willing?" ”
"Honestly, I don't want to. I thought it would be a... Pete thought for a moment and said, "Well, it will be a very different job." But... I didn't expect it to be like this. Fortunately, it was an opportunity for me. You should know what kind of development I will have as a result. ”
Wells nodded and said, "You have a chance to enter the overtaking lane of life." ”
"That's right. So I don't want to be here, but I'm going to keep staying and make sure nothing happens during my time here, otherwise my efforts will be in vain. Pete said with a wry smile.
"Looks like that's what you're after." Wells said: "Becoming a mid-level cadre in Hermet will give you the opportunity to go one step further even later." ”
"I don't think about it that much, just to be like John." Pete looked at Wells and said, "What I need now is a stable life, no longer having to travel through the rain of bullets." I'd love to tell you that. ”
"Yes, I said it." Wells thought for a moment and said, "With all due respect, I'm not really optimistic about Helmet. ”
"Why?" Pete asked, looking curious.
Wells looked at Pete, as if after thinking about it, and said, "Well, I won't be in Hermet in the future anyway, and it's okay to talk about it." Helmet would be an easier target to penetrate, and all sorts of bad luck would ensue in the future. At that time, as a cadre, you will definitely be in charge of some work, and when something goes wrong, you will be in trouble. Second, in my opinion, Helmet will be suppressed sooner or later, and it is more likely that he will bear the blame for others. So if I were you, I definitely wouldn't be staying in this place for long. ”
Pete nodded and said, "I see what you mean." But at the moment it's the best option for me. But what can I do when I leave? Do you really want to find a place to sit as a security guard? ”
While they were talking, there was a knock on the door, and Pete went to open it, only to see a man from Hermet standing outside the door and saying, "Sir, everyone is here." ”
"Okay. I'll come right over. Pete said a word and looked back at Wells and said, "Let's go, everyone else is here." ”
Wells picked up a small bag and stood up to the door and said, "Do you want to check it?" ”
Pete smiled and said, "No need. After looking around to see that there was no one else, he continued, "I think what the Intelligence Bureau is most afraid of is getting on what is here." Otherwise, we wouldn't have been allowed to do this here. ”
Everyone else was waiting in the hall on the first floor, and when Pete arrived with Wells, they hugged the others, and they handed Pete a report on their work.
"Thank you, Pete." After handing his report to Pete, Thomas said, "Originally, I thought that even if you did, it would be a long time before you left. I didn't expect to transfer us away so soon. "Sogou Library
Pete smiled and said, "Do it well." It shouldn't have much to do with me to transfer you so quickly, but there is something important waiting for you to do. Here's your chance. ”
Hearing Pete say this, not only Thomas, but also several people around him showed a look of great anticipation.
"That's great." There are humane, and some people laugh happily directly.
Pete didn't want these people to be verbose, he glanced at the time and said, "It's almost time." Get in the car, everyone, get out of here, you should have a nice holiday first. ”
Hearing Pete say this, everyone got on the bus at the door. After putting them all in the car, Pete stood by the door and watched them leave 42 Palomar Road.
After seeing the gang off, Pete left the apartment with the reports submitted by the men and went to 33. In his office, he quickly flipped through the reports.
In fact, he was not interested in these reports at all, it was just a formality, and the person who wrote the reports had the same mentality as Pete, so after a while Pete finished reading them all and threw them on Forde's desk. Then he picked up the phone on the table and called John.
This time it seemed to be a call at John's request, only to see Pete answer the phone and say, "Mr. John." They had already left, including Wells Lee, who had already left 42 Palomar Road, which should have left Novoko. ”
"Good. Peter. I'll send someone over as soon as possible for the vacancies they left behind. John was about to hang up.
I only heard Pete say quickly: "Mr. John, I would love to know when I can also leave?" Now that they don't pay attention to this place anymore, can I also withdraw? ”
John knew that by "they" Pete was referring to the Intelligence Bureau. Just listen to him: "Pete, give you a suggestion." You may feel like you've been left behind, after all, you guys went to Novoko together. For now, though, I'd suggest you stay there. The work there may be boring, but you and I know it's important. Getting the job done there is not only for Hermet, but also for you. For others, their future work may be important, but it is not suitable for you, or you will be hesitant and less determined, so it is better to do a good job in Novoko, and doing a good job there is undoubtedly your best choice at the moment. ”
"Okay." Pete replied helplessly, and then said, "I obey orders, but why am I hesitant and undetermined?" Is this an evaluation of me or ... ”
"Not an evaluation. Relax Pete, it's confidential, you can't say too much, you just need to know that you're doing a good job and you're in the best position. Don't think about anything else, do what you're doing right now and complete this mission. Later on, you'll find that there was nothing wrong with this choice. John said.
"Okay." Pete said, "I'll do my best." ”
"That's good. I'll send you the information of the relevant person shortly. That's it. John hung up the phone.
Pete put down the phone, in fact, he didn't want to leave here, on the contrary, he was very satisfied with the current position, after all, the transmission of information in the future was mostly done by himself. And the reason why he complained to John was because he wanted to know what was going on with these transferred people, or the intelligence bureau. After all, from now on, Tucker and Eric are coming for Parker's line, and now that Parker is sacrificed, this line is broken.
