Chapter 40: Catching a Spy
Pete nodded and sent Evans to the door, "Let me know if you need my help in the future, but don't prepare that thing anymore." ”
Evans smiled and said, "We'll talk about it then." Let's go. ”
After Evans left, Pete took out the bag and looked at it, it was about $10,000 in it. He took two of them and put them in a drawer in his closet, and then went out to the supermarket to buy something, after all, he might be staying in the house for a long time after that.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Pete rode his bicycle to the headquarters of Helmet. To his surprise, when he came to John's office, there were already a lot of people waiting. Each of these people was wearing a suit and looked very formal for the interview, only Pete was very unusual and dressed very casually, which made him stand out among these people, and everyone turned their heads to look at him.
Pete was stunned for a moment, then smiled at the men and walked over to John's secretary. "I'm Pete Wong, and I'm about half past two with Mr. John."
John's secretary nodded, and after a quick check of the appointment schedule, he nodded, "Wait a minute, it should be your turn in a while." ”
"Okay. Thank you. Pete thanked him and then turned to look at the others and whispered, "These are all here to find Mr. John?" ”
The secretary smiled and said, "Yes." But that's okay, you've already made an appointment. ”
"Okay." Pete thanked him again and turned to the side, then observed the men. At first, when I first came in, they looked like they were all dressed in suits and leather shoes, but now a little closer inspection shows that there are not many of them, but they are all varied.
For example, the person sitting next to Pete is a Caucasian man, who should be a tall and thin man, and is reading something in his hand, so that you know that this guy must be from a completely different industry than himself. Across from him, a black man sitting on the other side of the aisle was quite different. Although this guy wears glasses and looks sven, his physique, and his broad palms, at a glance, tell that he is a strong guy who does rough work like himself, and there is another white man not far from this guy, this guy probably still had a beard before, and he only shaved it before the interview today.
"Excuse me. You're also here for an interview? As Pete observed the men, a voice rang out from Pete's side.
Pete immediately turned his head to look over, only to see an Asian face appear in front of his eyes. Pete took a quick look at the man, and saw that he was slightly shorter than himself, about thirty years old, with very short hair, and he should have had a haircut recently. The eyes are bright, confident and friendly.
"Yes." Pete immediately said: "I just received the notice yesterday. ”
"I see." The man pointed to Pete's outfit and said, "We were all given a week's notice. ”
"Huh." Pete smiled a little awkwardly and said, "I didn't expect it to be such a scene, I thought it was just a chat." ”
The man seemed a little surprised to hear Pete say this: "Do you know Mr. Lennon?" ”
"Mr. Lennon? Oh, yes... Pete didn't seem to react for a moment, "We all call him John, and Lennon is his destiny, but we're more used to calling him that." ”
The man smiled and nodded, "By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Wells, Wells Lee." ”
"Pete Wang." Pete said as he stretched out his hand and shook the other's hand, "Nice to meet you." ”
"Are you Chinese? I mean you're Chinese? Wells Lee asked.
"Yes. Chinese. Pitt nodded and said, "Are you too?" ”
"Of course I am." Wells Lee smiled and said, "Originally, I thought you were Korean or Japanese. After speaking, he looked at Pete and said, "Can you still speak Chinese?" ”
"Of course." Pidge nodded: "Chinese is my mother tongue, and English was learned when I grew up." What about you? ”
"A little. This Wells Lee seemed to be a little ashamed and said, "I can only speak a little Chinese, and I still have an accent." ”
It turned out to be this "ABC" Pete thought so in his heart, and while laughing, he said, "Are you also here for an interview?" ”
"Yes. Interview. I guess it will be a while. The man sighed slightly as if he was a little worried, but he still gave Pete a very confident look, as if he had no problem at all and would definitely be admitted.
As he spoke, the door to John's office was opened from the inside, and John sent a Caucasian man to the door, and after a few more words of conversation with the man at the door, he said goodbye to each other.
"Pete?" John quickly saw Pete after glancing around the people waiting outside the door, "Come on, hurry up and hurry." ”
"Yes, sir." Pete immediately replied and looked at the Wells Lee in front of him and said, "Nice to meet you." I went in first. ”
"Good luck." The Wells laughed as he watched Pete walk into John's office.
Once in the office, John pointed to his desk and said, "Sit down." Looks like you're recovering well. ”
"Yes sir." Pete replied and sat down.
"Okay. Let's get this straight. John sat down and said, "I think Donovan has told you, right?" ”
"Yes." Pete nodded and said, "But I only said a rough idea, saying that the place where I was going to be transferred was a good place, far better than staying in the team, but he didn't tell me what to do." ”
"It's not that he won't tell you." John smiled and said, "He doesn't know." But one thing he was right about was that it was better to transfer you than to be in the squad. ”
"Can I know what I do now?" Pete asked.
"That's what you came here today. Some things have to be made clear. John said and thought for a moment, "Simply put, it's to help the Intelligence Bureau do something that should be done on their own. ”
"Spies?" Pete blurted out.
"Uh... So to speak. John said with a wry smile, "But for now, you're not a spy, you're going to help the bureau find and catch a spy." ”
Hearing this, Pete's heart couldn't help but move. Scratch? Isn't that a counterintelligence agency? This is an extremely important department, and if you can really join it, it will make a difference. But on the surface, he still looked very confused and said: "Catch the spy... Shouldn't that be what the FBI does? ”
