Chapter 498: Return to Los Angeles, report on the case, birthday dinner

On the way back to Los Angeles, agents from the FBI's San Francisco branch were in charge of driving, and Roan sat in the back seat of the car, bored looking out the window.

Mona hugged her laptop, tilted her head to look at Luo An's side face, and felt an inexplicable emotion in her heart.

In just one year and a few months, Luo An has sat in the position of the head of the special investigation team at an unbelievable speed, coupled with the detection of this poison gas case, although his position will not change in a short period of time, his status and prestige within the FBI will definitely improve a lot.

As Roan's girlfriend, Mona is naturally proud and happy for Roan.

At the same time, Mona was also a little distressed, it was a good thing that Luo An was excellent, but he seemed to be a little too good.

The Federation is a country that values the family, and various families have always had a tradition of marrying, tying families together through marriage, and absorbing talents into their own families.

With Luo An's performance, there are definitely some families who have noticed him now, although Mona is Luo An's girlfriend, but the girlfriend is not a wife, and the wife has the possibility of divorce.

Thinking of some small watches younger than herself, bigger than her bear, longer than her legs, and more beautiful than herself, Mona's eyes flashed with a strange light.

Mona kept staring at him, attracting Roan's attention, and he turned his head and asked:

"What are you watching me do?"

"Nothing."

Mona shook her head, pressed some things that Lacey had taught her in the past, smiled and changed the subject, and asked:

"The suspect in the gas case has been caught, and this case has entered the final stage, what are we going to do next?"

"Don't do it, just put the finishing touches on it slowly."

"What about the bank robbers?"

"Wait."

"Wait? What do you mean? ”

"Wait for news from Lacey."

Luo An stretched his waist hard, when Lacey followed Coughlin to Las Vegas before, Luo An formulated a rough plan for Lacey, the content requires experienced Lacey to improvise, calculate the time, Lacey's side should be about the same.

Mona and Michelle were puzzled when they heard this, but now that there were other people in the car, Roan did not continue to discuss the matter, intending to return to the special investigation team to explain the situation.

Escort is a very hard thing, the car is also very hard, Luo An and others from San Francisco to Los Angeles, sat in the car for more than six hours, the three of them sat on the back pain and leg cramps, got off the car for a long time to recover.

However, the three of Luo An are nothing, because the FBI San Francisco branch agents in charge of escorting them need to drive back after a few hours of rest, and it is more than six hours.

"Thank you for your hard work."

In the parking lot of the FBI's Los Angeles branch building, Roan patted the shoulders of the agents who were driving and pulling the three of them on the road with sympathy, and was about to say something when the team leader Potante Byrne came over with several agents.

Waving his hand and letting the agents behind him handle the handover of the suspect Tom Hamilton, as well as the escorts of the San Francisco branch, dealing with food and rest, Portante-Byrne grabbed Roan by the arm and pulled him in the direction of the building:

"Luo An, your special investigation team has handled this case very well, and the director wants to see you."

"Yes, sir."

Roan hurriedly followed Portant-Byrne's pace and threw Mona and Michelle a look back at him, Mona raised her hand and swept it, they had long been used to it and knew what they were going to do next.

Walked all the way to the director's office, and saw the scene of Luo An walking into the office, the joy in Director Nassim's eyes could not be concealed at all.

Several people died in the gas case, a large number of people were hospitalized in a coma, the entire building was sanitized for several days, and First Republic Bank of California directly announced that the building would be closed for a month's vacation, and the work would be transferred to other branches.

Coupled with the major news media in Los Angeles, describing this incident as a terrorist attack and other messy reports, Nassim, the director of the FBI Los Angeles branch, also had a headache and a lot of pressure.

A few hours ago, he heard Portante-Byrne say that Roan had led the Special Investigation Team to solve the case and was currently on his way back to Los Angeles, Director Nassim's eyes lit up, and then he ordered Potante Byrne to take Roan to his office as soon as he returned to Los Angeles.

When Luo An and the others walked into the office, a smile suddenly appeared on Director Nassim's face, and he got up and walked to Luo An's side and patted his two arms vigorously, motioning for the two to sit down.

The secretary brought three cups of coffee to the three people in the room, smiled at Roan, and turned to leave the office, where Director Nassim sat back in his chair and asked Roan to explain the investigation of the case.

Picking up the coffee and taking a sip, Luo An pondered for a few seconds and began to talk about the test report issued by the CDC.

The case itself is not particularly complicated, but the excessive number of injuries and deaths is easy to attract attention, and the combination of bank robberies makes it easy to go in the wrong direction and miss some details.

Compared with the description of the team leader, when Luo An faced the director of the bureau, Nassim, the description of the investigation process of the case was more ups and downs and magnificent.

It's not that Director Nasim likes to hear this kind of story, but Luo An guesses that Director Nasim will probably hold a press conference in the future, and the ups and downs of the case will attract the attention of those media more.

Sure enough, after listening to Luo An's case introduction, Director Nassim's eyes were full of approval, and he didn't say too many words, just clicked Luo An a few times with his hand, and then took out an invitation letter from the desk and handed it to Luo An, and said with a smile on his face:

"The follow-up work of this case, you will definitely be able to handle it properly, I won't say more.

Wait a minute, we're going to have a big press conference on this gas case, Roan, Portant, you and I are here.

In addition, this is the invitation to the birthday party of the mayor of Los Angeles, and the mayor personally sent it to you, and you must not be absent that day, Roan. ”

After Potante-Byrne told Commissioner Nassim about the case, Commissioner Nassim also called the mayor of Los Angeles about the incident.

The mayor of Los Angeles was a little skeptical at first, but when he learned that the organizer of the case was Roan Greenwood, the head of the Special Investigation Unit, the mayor of Los Angeles, who had experienced the [First Lady Bombing] before, smiled, and then asked the secretary to add Roan Greenwood's name to the banquet list, and at the same time sent Roan an an invitation letter for Director Nassim to help pass it on.

Luo An took the invitation, was slightly stunned when he saw the time on it, and then agreed.

Director Nassim nodded in satisfaction, and the three exchanged views for a moment, and Roan and Potante Byrne left the director's office first.

Returning to the Special Investigation Team, there were four people here, in addition to Mona and Michelle, Winslow and Chenelle actually appeared in the office area.

Luo An put the invitation aside, frowning slightly:

"You ......"

"Sorry, team leader, we've ......"

Winslow and Chenelle stood up instantly, the expressions on their faces a little embarrassed and complicated.

Without waiting for the two to finish explaining, Luo An, who guessed what had happened, waved his hand to indicate that he would go back and talk, and then walked into the team leader's office and began to change clothes.

Director Nassim was anxious, and said that he would hold a press conference, leaving him and Potante Byrne not much time, and the two of them would have to discuss what was inconvenient to say about the case later.

While Roan was changing, Winslow casually picked up the invitation:

"Our team leader actually got an invitation to the mayor of Los Angeles' birthday party?"

"Birthday party? Mayor or mayor's wife? ”

Michelle next to him took a sip of coffee and said:

"I remember that the mayor of Los Angeles' daughter seems to be 20 years old, has no boyfriend, is very beautiful, and has always wanted to develop in Hollywood."

“??!!”

Mona's ears instantly pricked up when she heard this.
