When Penning called his fiancée, Miranda was in her Sacramento apartment thinking about her next move.

In fact, she could continue to stay in the state bureau.

But this choice is a choice without a choice.

Miranda graduated from the University of Pennsylvania, the number one major in the federal rankings, and she had a choice.

For her, the best option was to take advantage of this opportunity to propose a transfer and go directly back to Kuntik's headquarters.

She is not a loser in a power struggle, so the new director, after she makes this request, will definitely support her.

But......

After returning to Kuantiko, although the level will not change, in terms of professional title level, it is definitely inferior to the state bureau.

Even though a new chief's henchman has now been parachuted in as treasurer, the state commissioner has retained the title of deputy treasurer for her.

If this goes to Kuntik, let alone the deputy financial director, I'm afraid I don't even have the title of a small boss.

From thrift to luxury.

It is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

It's the same with work.

No one would be willing to be a soldier who can only obey orders after becoming a leader.

It's not.

When Miranda was thinking about her future decision, she saw Penning's phone, restrained her emotions, and picked up the phone with a smile.

The next second.

She was stunned.

"S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

"The secret law enforcement agency formed by the five overlords?"

As a finance major and a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, Miranda's connections in the Federation are not to be underestimated.

Like what......

The current secretary of the federal finance department is their senior at the University of Pennsylvania.

As an excellent graduate, Miranda's alumni book also has the contact information of this senior.

Not to mention the other alumni who mingle with the various federal law enforcement agencies.

The flow of information between the finances is not slow at all, so it is quite reasonable for them to know about the existence of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Pan Ning said directly: "Yes, it's S.H.I.E.L.D., LU Ke said, there is a lack of a financial director over there in Sanfei, if you are interested." ”

Miranda raised her eyebrows: "The treasurer of Sanfei was arrested, about seven days ago, and there was a discussion about this matter in the baby group a few days ago." ”

Their alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania, has a mascot that is an owl named Baby.

Miranda's thoughts turned: "If it's Sanfei, of course I'm willing, but is the news reliable?" ”

S.H.I.E.L.D. is now in the federal law enforcement agency system and is a shoebox inside the state of a cat.

He exists, but he does not exist.

But S.H.I.E.L.D. is not part of the FBI system, that's for sure.

If she wants to go to Sanfei, this is a job hop.

In case she changes jobs and finds out that it is not herself, if she wants to come back, she will come back with her ability, but the level will definitely be reduced.

It's normal for Miranda to be a little apprehensive about this.

Penning grabbed his phone and went back to the sofa and looked at Luke.

He drove the hands-free directly, so what Miranda said just now, Luke could also hear.

Luke said directly to Miranda on the other end of the phone: "There is no worry about this, but if you want to go, you have to act quickly, because this window period will end on the 10th, and today is already the 7th." ”

When Miranda heard this, she didn't hesitate and immediately decided: "I'll write an application now." ”

After all that is said.

Miranda hung up the phone directly.

She is a financial professional, vigorous and resolute, and she is also a necessary professionalism.

After confirming Miranda's idea, Luke also directly took Penning's mobile phone and dialed Alexander.

Alexander, after receiving Luke's confirmation call, didn't say anything, just said that he knew, and then hung up the phone.

Three days later.

January 10th.

Good news.

Miranda Karp has officially become S.H.I.E.L.D.'s new treasurer.

in the office.

"Congratulations."

"Thank you."

Penning and Luke clinked glasses, and after saying thank you, they looked at Luke: "Miranda said that after it is straightened out, I will invite you to drink in Los Santo." ”

Luke smiled, "Okay, I can remember." ”

In fact, Miranda's employment information was determined yesterday, but even a secret agency needs to go through a process before it can be released.

After all, who gave up the burden of Nick Fury?

At present, S.H.I.E.L.D., even if you go to the logistics department to get a roll of paper or something, you have to report it to your direct leaders in accordance with the process, and then report it, and then hand it over to the new director of the administration after approval, and the logistics side will only implement it after the latter signs it.

Belch......

By the time this process is complete, you'll either be in the toilet until you're old, or you can't wait to use your clothes as rolling paper.

In short, S.H.I.E.L.D. is quite formal at the moment.

"That's right."

Penning thought of the content of the phone call with his fiancée yesterday and looked at Luke: "At that time, it was Maria Hill, the deputy chief of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the commander, who interviewed her, and when it came to the final decision, it was Maria Hill who voted for Miranda. ”

Luke nodded: "I know this, don't worry about my side, Miranda can do whatever she wants." ”

The meaning of Pan Ning's words, the first half of the sentence is irrelevant, the important thing is the last sentence.

Maria Hill seems to be courting Miranda Karp.

This is also normal.

Miranda Karp wasn't the only one who went to the interview yesterday, there were three others.

However, the other three people, more or less, are all labeled.

Those three people, two of them, were appointed as the head of finance of a certain branch of S.H.I.E.L.D. during Alexander's tenure.

The other one is also tagged with Nick Fury.

So......

Just as some members of the Security Council are concerned about the "military label" on Maria Hill, in addition to not being justified at the moment, Maria Hill, whose power is basically equivalent to that of S.H.I.E.L.D. chief, naturally does not want to see the financial side being moved in by people with the label of "Alexander Pearce" or "Nick Fury".

In this way, Miranda Karp's advantage is very clear.

Maria Hill voted for Miranda Karp, and naturally, it was expected.

Luke knew what Miranda Karp was worried about, so after saying so, he said to Penning: "The matter between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Miranda is completely a matter of coincidence, and compared to this, shouldn't we be worried about the new state chief?" ”

You know, this time, the new California director was parachuted in directly on Christmas Eve.

What were the FBIs doing all over California at that time?

The holiday is on vacation, and the abroad is abroad.

Obviously.

The new state director didn't come casually, but specially pinched this time, and directly played a sneak attack without talking about martial arts.

When a new director arrives, the correct thing to do is that they receive the news first, and then when the state director takes office, they visit as soon as possible to show their respect.

But how did this new director do it.

Directly sneak attacked, parachuted in during the holiday without saying a word, grabbed people first, and took a bomb and hid it without talking about martial arts.

When he wants to move someone, there is a natural reason.

That is, when I perform my duties is my business, but if you don't visit me at the first time, that is disrespecting me, and this is your business.

"This new director is not a good person."

Luke shook his head and looked at Penning: "But fortunately, you were here in Sacramento at the time, what's the matter, is there any news?" ”

Pan Ning grabbed the information placed next to him and handed it to Lu Ke directly: "Take a look." ”

Luke took the information and flipped through it.

The new director is called Miller, and he doesn't have a lot of information, and his resume is not very impressive.

This Director Miller was born in Washington, grew up in Washington, studied in Washington, graduated from Yale, and then went directly to the Quantico headquarters, starting as a senior special agent, then as an office agent, an operational staff agent, and then as an assistant to the chief of operations, and then became the new director of California.

"This resume ......"

Lu Ke looked at the information about Director Miller in his hand, found the problem at a glance, and looked at Pan Ning: "This is clearly to come down and prepare to do a wave of things, and then go back to the headquarters." ”

According to the information of this director Miller, this guy's development route is the headquarters route.

Since graduating, people have never thought about doing any grassroots work, and this career development route is clearly to impact the FBI director throne.

This time, it was clear that he wanted to make a big wave, and then fortunately, after finishing the matter, he would return to Kuntik.

Pan Ning nodded in agreement: "If he didn't plan to do something, he wouldn't have fallen in the sky on Christmas Eve, but the question is, what he plans to do, and who he plans to do things to, this is the key." ”

Luke noticed Penning's expression.

"You think he's going to mess with us?"

"I don't know."

Pan Ning frowned, and looked at Lu Ke with a serious expression: "But, so many days have passed, and those who should be suspicious have also begun to doubt." ”

He's talking about Houghton Lewis.

Houghton Lewis died last year, and the cause of death was claimed to be a plane crash, but the real cause of death is known to everyone.

And after all this time, there should be an object of suspicion.

No doubt.

He and Luke, who had received the last mission order from Horton Louis temporarily, were definitely the first suspects.

Although there is no evidence that Luke and Penning were in the city of Sacramento on the day of Horton Louis' death.

But the law is about evidence.

Capital only talks about the possible.

Lu Ke thought about it, smiled, and said to Pan Ning: "Is this new director planning to come badly, or is planning to come badly, won't we know if we go tomorrow." ”

Penning: "......"
