The Legendary Life of an American Superhero

A funny little girl.

Lake glanced at the note in his hand, then rolled it up and put it in his pocket.

only……

In New York, no one can escape the palm of my hand.

Although Lake did not ask the New York Police Department to issue a notice to the police officers, patrol officers and campus police under his command, he still said hello to the New York Rescue Center.

Although Lake couldn't do much, with his current status, it was still feasible for the rescue center to find a good foster family for her when Skye passed by again.

As for the others?

Lake was also helpless.

After all, Lake is not married yet, and suddenly there is a little loli around, it always feels weird.

ten days later.

Lake took a plane and arrived at Washington Airport.

This time back to Washington, D.C., mainly for two things. First, Lake promised Karen that he would go home on Independence Day this time. As for the second thing...

Put it this way.

Meghan Walsh has disappeared from the CIA custody room.

This is good.

I reminded you that you didn't cherish it.

so……

Don't say anything!

"elder brother!"

"This way."

Lake with a backpack walked out of the airport, followed the sound, and immediately saw Betty standing by a black sports car and waving to this side.

Lake walked over: "Are you on vacation?"

Betty opened the trunk: "Of course, in order to pick you up, I specifically asked for leave."

Lake put the backpack into the trunk, glanced at Betty, and said mercilessly: "You are deliberately looking for time to delay your graduation day."

Betty is currently writing a dissertation, and as long as the dissertation meets the standards, the Ph.D.

but……

Getting a Ph.D. means going to work in the military's biological laboratory. Betty fought hard, but unfortunately, even Karen didn't stand on Betty's side.

So Betty took a passive confrontational attitude.

I won't write the thesis, and if you let me go to the military laboratory, I won't graduate.

Betty chuckled: "Brother, I'm your sister, you should help me."

Lake put on his seat belt, started the car, and glanced at Betty: "Help you, I can't help you. I said that I was discharged from the army, but the file is still in the military."

Betty suddenly realized: "Yes."

Subsequently.

Betty sighed: "We have a dictator in our family."

Lake laughed.

Thaddeus Ross is indeed a bit like a dictator, but who is a general, and one of the three giants of the military.

Arlington County.

Lake hugged Karen, who was greeted at the door, and then handed Karen the gift he had prepared.

Karen opens.

Inside the exquisite box, there is a chain, a necklace in the shape of a crucifix.

Karen glanced, admired, and said to Lake, "Thank you, I like it very much."

Lake smiled.

He himself is immortal, and this crucifix with one-time resurrection ability is useless to stay on his side. The person he cares about, after all, seems to be what Karen needs.

After all, the chances of federal prosecutors being killed are pretty good.

bah bah bah.

night time.

Thaddeus also came back from Quantico for dinner.

Karen is happy.

After all, at the end of the year, there are only a handful of times the family gets together to eat together, Thaddeus likes to stay at the base, and Betty likes to stay in her own rented apartment.

Lake?

Not to mention Lake, since he was sixteen years old, in Karen's words, it is a wild horse that has taken off the reins. This year is better. In the past few years, he would never go home without a breakup.

After dinner.

Betty drove herself to the city and went shopping with her little sister.

After Lake and Thaddeus helped Karen clean up the kitchen, they all went to the study to drink and smoke cigars.

"I heard that something happened between you and Langley?"

"If you say Langley robbed my suspect, then yes."

Thaddeus thought for a while and looked at Lake: "Langley has never been nice to you."

Lake shrugged.

Can you blame him.

He originally wanted to be free from the world and play on his own, but unexpectedly, the tree wanted to be quiet and the wind would not stop.

This time too.

Thaddeus said, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Lake smiled: "Thank you, I can handle it."

For men, a few words are fine.

Thaddeus knew clearly that Lake's character, obviously, Lake was going to attack Langley again.

Poor Langley.

This has been folded twice in his hands, why hasn't he learned to be good, he is cleaning up, good guy, so there are still agents in Langley?

Thaddeus looked at Lake, who was sitting on the side sofa with a smile on his face, thinking in his heart.

the next day.

Lake went downstairs, looked at Betty who was covering her head at the dining table, and walked over: "Hangover?"

Betty looked at Lake with a sad expression, then nodded.

Lake walked into the kitchen, took out a bottle of frozen beer from the refrigerator, put it in front of Betty, and said, "Tell you quietly, drink this bottle and recover immediately. This is my exclusive secret recipe."

Betty suddenly flashed a little star: "Really?"

Lake nodded.

Karen came over and patted Lake: "I didn't tease your sister, she's uncomfortable."

Lake laughed.

Knowing that she was being teased, Betty immediately pouted and looked at Lake complaining with a speechless and helpless expression.

After half an hour.

Lake drove out.

Washington, D.C. is the political center of the federal government. Naturally, there are many newspapers born out of politics. If the newspapers in Los Angeles live on celebrity gossip and the newspapers in New York live on gossip about the rich, then the newspapers in Washington, D.C. rely on political gossip. to sustain life.

Journalists in Washington despise journalists in New York and journalists in Los Angeles.

This is a contempt chain.

Among the many newspapers in Washington, there is one that is the most famous.

The Sun.

This Sun newspaper has always been known for its criticism. The Watergate incident here was first disclosed by The Sun, and sales skyrocketed. After that, the Sun newspaper, which seemed to have found its own way of making money, became famous for its focus on digging black spots. .

Rachel Armstrong is a well-known reporter for The Sun, who can write a column on the news page of the newspaper every week. Rachel Armstrong, 28, is on the rise in her career.

Her husband, Ray Armstrong, is a good family husband and supports Rachel's career wholeheartedly.

On the edge of the Reflection Pool at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Lake, wearing sunglasses, admired the surrounding scenery.

soon.

A woman who looked exactly like a famous vampire warrior came over and sat on the bench with her back to Lake.

"Professor X?"

"Rachel Armstrong?"

Rachel, who was sitting with her back to Lake, whispered, "You said, do you want information to provide me?"

"Yeah," Lake said.

S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't play cards according to the routine, so Lake doesn't need to follow the rules.

With his gloved right hand, Lake took out the transfer order in the document bag and handed it to the Sun reporter: "When it comes to Langley, you should be interested."

As a journalist active in Washington, D.C., it's natural to know what Langley stands for.

only……

After Rachel took over, looking at the transfer order in her hand, she frowned and said, "I don't quite understand."

Using the trumpet Professor X, Lake said: "About 20 days ago, the New York Department of Homeland Security arrested a woman who was suspected of illegally smuggling."

Lake told Rachel in concise language that the meaning of this transfer order was that when the Homeland Security Agency was about to obtain a killer base from this suspect population that would cultivate a group of orphans from childhood and train them into killers, it was suspected When the people agreed to cooperate, Langley took the case from the sky with the transfer order.

Rachel Armstrong looked at the name on the transfer order: "Meghan Walsh?"

Lake said: "As for the arrest, you can confirm with your colleagues in New York. If you go to Midtown University, you will find that one of their exchange students from Meghan Walsh is missing."

This is the big problem.

only……

Rachel looked at the transfer order in her hand, shook her head and said, "This transfer order doesn't mean anything."

"You know Agent Langley who picked up this suspect," Lake said.

Rachel stunned: "Me?"

Lake nodded: "This agent's daughter is in elementary school with your daughter, Van Doren, but her name outside is Erica, you can confirm, I can also give you the person who was in charge of the case at the time. A personal phone call from the Deputy Director of Operations at the Department of Homeland Security, who is also in Washington now."

talking.

Lake got up and threw the note with his phone number to Rachel: "You don't need to keep me secret for that so-called principle, they can't find out who I am."

Done.

Lake walked out of the park. When passing a surveillance camera in the park, he raised his head, glanced at the surveillance camera, and then turned and left.

He knew too much about the character of the Commonwealth.

Once this news is published, the federation will not choose to solve the problem, but will choose to solve the person who raised the problem.

Lake just wanted to spread the news, and didn't intend to harass the reporter.

After all, few journalists who dare to tell the truth are suppressed even in the Federation these days.

Rachel Armstrong frowned as she sat on the bench looking at the transfer order and the note with the phone in her hand.

three days later.

The Sun headquarters.

As the news director of the newspaper, Bonnie, an African-American federalist, looked at the transfer order in his hand, looked up at Rachel, and then looked at the report that Rachel had written in his hand and was silent for a while: "We will definitely put it first tomorrow headlines, it will break the news.”

It's no secret that Langley has been yelled at in the media world.

Especially if this fact is true, then, Langley has a secret killer training base outside the Federation, and he still selects orphans to raise from a young age, the news is simply too shocking.

Rachel also said excitedly: "This is really breaking news, I mean, it's comparable to Watergate, Bonnie."

Bonnie said directly: "But it will make it impossible for the white building to step down."

Rachel: "..."
