Jack, who came to pick up the airport, looked at the boss who came out, with an excited and happy face, waving his hands to Luke from afar.

Luke walked over.

Jack took the luggage from Luke's hand: "Boss, did the flight go well?" ”

After Luke handed the luggage to Jack, he put his hands in his pockets again, glanced at Jack, and smiled: "It's okay, it's not dangerous." ”

He really thought Dr. Zora would do something to himself from thousands of miles in the sky.

Pity......

Zola didn't seem to take advantage of the opportunity he had deliberately set aside for him.

Soon.

The black Audi A8, after receiving Luke, drove out of Washington International Airport under Jack's driver, and headed straight for Washington, D.C., the heart of the Federation.

"Boss, Alexander knows that you are coming back today and have already booked a restaurant, shall we go over?"

"Go, tell him yes."

"Okay."

Jack clicked a few times with his right hand, read the navigation route of the restaurant, and then followed the navigation route and drove over.

Luke, who was sitting in the back seat, crossed his legs, flipped through the documents in his hand.

Jack, who was driving, glanced at Luke in the rearview mirror, and then said up, "Boss, there's a bottle of Bourbon next to me that I dropped off at Stryker's office yesterday." ”

Luke looked up in the direction Jack had said, and sure enough, he saw an unopened bottle of Bourbon.

He reached for Bourbon and looked at it.

"Yo, Thunder Bourbon, it's still vintage, yes, he just let you take it?"

"Of course."

Jack said happily, "I told him that the boss must like it, so he let me bring it." ”

Luke nodded: "Yes, good wine, you can drink it when you have dinner later." ”

Jack nodded, his expression natural: "Okay, boss." ”

Half an hour later.

In a private dining room with a view of the Capitol not far away.

Luke took Jack and pushed open the door of the private room, and instantly saw a happy Alexander Pierce get up and hug him.

"Welcome home."

"Thank you."

Luke and Alexander hugged for a while, and after letting go, he looked at Alexander and said with a smile: "Have you lost weight recently?" ”

When Alexander heard this, he smiled and said, "Really? ”

Luke smiled, "yes, it feels like it's about twenty-one grams lighter." ”

Alexander was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

Luke laughed too.

Soon.

The three of them were seated.

Jack looked at the Thunder Bourbon he brought from the car, and then at the Bourbon brought by Alexander on the table, and looked at his boss: "Boss, which bottle to open." ”

Luke gestured to Jack's hand, "This bottle." ”

Jack nodded.

Luke then stopped looking at Jack, who was drinking next to him, but at Alexander: "Sasha, is there any news from Zola's clone base?" ”

Alexander nodded: "There is news, it can be determined that it is in Texas, but I am still looking for the specific location." ”

Luke snorted: "This guy has dragged my woman over for so long, I haven't seen Sever for almost two months, I don't know what this guy is doing secretly." ”

Alexander smiled, "If I remember the flower correctly, Seifer seems to be a disciple of Dr. Zola first, and then you woman." ”

Lu Ke's face was serious: "Marry and obey the husband." ”

Let's talk about it.

Luke changed his words and looked at Alexander curiously: "By the way, Sasha, didn't Lindsay come today?" ”

When Alexander heard this, he smiled bitterly: "I didn't come, at home, you also know that the child is still young, and it is a little noisy to bring it out, and Lindsay is unwilling to let the nanny take care of it, but she knows that you came over today and told me to have two more drinks with you, and I must make sure that you don't get drunk and don't go home." ”

Luke smiled: "If you don't get drunk, you won't return, right, then you will probably have to lie on the road tonight for the night." ”

Alexander laughed, got up, took the two Bourbourbon poured by Jack on the side, and then handed Luke one and then clinked the glasses.

Ding.

After the glass collided, it made a crisp sound.

After Alexander sat down, he raised the wine glass in his hand and looked at Luke: "Cheers." ”

Luke didn't speak, but put the glass to the tip of his nose and sniffed it.

Jack, who was standing on the side, watched this scene with a trace of casual nervousness on his face.

Even a hidden camera placed in the corner of the private room seemed to be staring at this scene without blinking.

Dr. Zola was also watching nervously, placing his glass on the tip of his nose.

If you want to kill Luke, the probability of failure of regular physical attacks, including transcendent physical attacks, is almost 90%.

So......

Tricks have to be tricked.

If you can't use physical attacks, you can only use chemical attacks.

With poison!

According to Dr. Zola's big data search, he found a medical order that Luke went to the hospital for emergency medical treatment due to food poisoning at night.

Through this medical list, Dr. Zora determined that there was a high probability of killing Luke with poison.

But......

How to use poison is another matter.

Fortunately.

One of Luke's strengths that can be exploited is that Luke is almost defenseless against the people he trusts.

Dr. Zola has seen a lot of surveillance footage of Luke.

Although Luke had a somewhat wary expression on his face when he was outside, he was a little wary of the drinks handed over by Earl and Jack and Debbie.

That's where Dr. Zola gets his chance.

But for now.

Something seems to be wrong.

Could it be that Luke has noticed something amiss?

That's not right.

It's not this bottle of poisoned wine.

Dr. Zola's server was running faster, and the cooling fan was running at full strength, making a humming sound.

But just as he was about to do the math with all his might, in the room, Luke, who had placed the wine glass on the tip of his nose, had already taken the wine glass back down.

"Not bad." Luke smiled, turned his head to look at Jack and said, "Is there still this kind of wine in William's office?" ”

Jack quickly came back to his senses.

"Yes, and several bottles."

"Before going home tomorrow, go to his place and take away all the wine, such a good wine, he will drink it is a waste."

Lu Ke said, and then, holding the wine glass, he clinked glasses with Alexander again, and also said a toast, and then followed Alexander and the two of them, and drank it directly.

Meanwhile.

Their meals are also served.

Alexander, as the host, greeted Luke very naturally and warmly, and frequently raised his glass after cup.

Outcome......

Before the twenty-three dishes ordered, a bottle of wine had already been exhausted.

Jack shook the empty bottle, and his eyes fell on the bourbon that Alexander had brought, and he grabbed the bourbon as it could, intending to open the bottle.

But was stopped by Luke.

Jack was slightly stunned and looked at Luke.

"Boss."

"Forget it."

Luke looked at Alexander with a slightly drunk face: "Keep this wine, there will be something to do later, if you get drunk, you will be kicked out." ”

Alexander was slightly stunned, and then as if he had noticed something interesting, he lowered his voice: "Why, our Director Dane also has a lover in Washington. ”

Luke smiled but didn't say anything.

But this situation, obviously, is already admitted.

Alexander couldn't help but wonder: "Who, do I know anyone?" ”

Luke thought for a moment, looked at Alexander, and nodded.

"In a sense, you do know."

"I know, who?"

"Maria Silver."

“……”

When Alexander heard the name, he was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, as if he had some disbelief, looked at Luke, and lowered his voice: "Shet, Lady Viper, Jesus God, when did you get together with her." ”

Dr. Zola, who was hiding behind the scenes and eavesdropping, also felt that his CPU was inexplicably overclocked when he heard this.

When did Luke get involved with Lady Viper?

Didn't they meet less than three times in total?

Is this all together?

The reason?

Obviously.

That's how Luke has that charisma.

And......

He had met with Lady Viper a few times before they got together, and it had been a long time.

Look at Helen Zhao.

Luke did it to the extent that he met that day and rolled the sheets that night.

So!

Faced with Alexander's shock, Luke waved his hand very modestly, indicating that it was not worth mentioning: "Hilf said that looking for her to find a man needs to look at the standard, I am okay, barely qualified, so, you know, this wine, stay for tomorrow to drink?" ”

"No way!"

Shock is shock, but this wine must not be delayed.

Alexander also looked at Luke with a straight face: "When I came over, Lindsey specially explained that I wanted to entertain you, but you asked me to take the wine back, and I couldn't enter the bedroom tonight." ”

Lu Kele smiled: "Then you can bear to let me sleep on the sofa?" ”

Alexander shrugged.

"You're different."

"For example?"

"I only have one."

“……”

Luke listened to Alexander's answer, opened his mouth, and suddenly, it was really true.

So......

Luke thought for a moment, looked at Jack with slightly drunk and somewhat confused eyes, and nodded, "Okay, let's open the wine." ”

Jack was so good that he opened the last remaining bottle of Bourbon, and quickly filled Alexander and Luke with glasses.

Alexander continued to raise his glass with a smile on his face.

"Cheers."

"Okay."

Luke, who was holding the wine glass, seemed to look up and burp, smiled, and then clinked glasses with Alexander in front of him again.

Zola, don't blame me for that.

It was made clear to you, and it was hinted at you.

Pity.

Give you a chance, don't say you grasp it, you don't even think about it.

Case.

Cherish your last days.

Luke looked at him with a smile, clinked glasses with him, and then drank the bourbon in the cup, Alexander, who also drank the bourbon in his hand.

Wine in the throat.

Moment.

There has been a change.
