Chapter 283: The archbishop who came to report

Lake didn't lie, he really had L's phone.

Of course.

Not now, but it is easy to find L’s current phone. As a senior federal official, Lake is still very easy. No matter how bad, there is still the Red Queen behind.

That night.

Lake got L's current data from the Red Queen, but Lake looked at the data on his hand and suddenly hesitated, wondering if it should be played.

L is married.

Of course.

Al Greenoway’s marriage is not the point. Lake didn’t care about his body, he only valued Al’s talent in the criminal field.

Lake also knew from Ellen the reason for Al’s departure.

In one case, when everyone was about to lose the suspect, Al found the suspect. Then, the scene was determined to be self-defense, but if that was the case, Al would not be here. After the case chose to leave.

Of course.

This is not the point.

Al has now changed his name and surname. It is no longer Al Greenover, but Polly Hinton, and he lives in Seattle.

There are only two reasons for the change of name and surname.

The first one is to escape the pursuit of some existence.

Second, start your life again.

There is no doubt that L, who changed his name from Al to Polly Hinton, belongs to the second kind, reopening his own life.

Lake ordered the table.

after awhile.

Lake sighed and gave up the idea of ​​calling for an appointment.

Seattle and Fox Town are very close, Lake wondered, next time I go to Fox to see his little quilted jacket, I will pass by Seattle, take a close look at L, and decide whether to invite L.

"Ding Dong!"

"……coming."

Skye, who was watching the TV in the living room downstairs, heard the door ringing, and first glanced at the outsider displayed by the videophone, and let out a surprised cry, then shouted at Lake upstairs.

Lake raised his eyebrows and went out.

Skye and Karen hugged, walked to the living room, looked at Lake who was walking down and smiled: "Lake, see who is here."

Lake went down and gave Karen a hug: "Why don't you tell me in advance, I will pick you up at the airport."

Lake was surprised at Karen's arrival. Karen had also been to New York before, but they had called Lake in advance. This time they had directly attacked him.

Fortunately, the family has a daughter who has just grown up.

Fortunately, the housekeeping attendant only came here yesterday to do some sanitation. If Skye is not there, the housekeeping attendant will not come. It is estimated that Karen will be talking about the living environment here when he enters the door.

Karen kissed Lake on the forehead, then let it go and glanced at Lake: "I'm not old enough to need someone to pick him up at the airport."

Lake shrugged: "Where's Betty."

"Paris."

"Not back."

"No, and I decided to come to New York only temporarily."

Lake heard this, thought for a while, and looked at Karen: "Is it because of tomorrow's speech by the Cardinal and Mr. President in New York?"

Karen nodded: "Yes, nor is it."

Lake was lost.

the next day.

Although New York City has not entered a state of security throughout the city, the closer it is to Long Island, the more clearly it can feel that there are more plainclothes police officers here.

Close to a five-star hotel near Long Island.

In the elevator.

Lake put away his credentials, and curiously said to Karen next to him: "I never heard you mention your relationship with the Archbishop Sobia."

Karen looked at Lake: "You forgot, your sister's baptism was performed by Archbishop Sobia, but Archbishop Sobia was not yet an archbishop at the time."

Lake raised his eyebrows.

Next second.

After reading the memory, Lake said to Karen: "It should be your memory that was wrong. I didn't go to Betty's baptism. That day, I caught a cold and I was in the hospital."

Karen frowned: "Really?"

Lake nodded.

He just said.

In his memory, people who have seen it are generally impossible to forget. At the time of Betty's baptism, Lake underestimated his physical fitness and caused him to be hospitalized for the first time in history.

If I remember correctly...

It should have been just over a month since Betty.

and……

After Lake recovered from that illness, he has been more confused about his illness. In his memory, that small cold almost killed him.

Fortunately, Lake survived. When thinking about it afterwards, Lake thought of the word sacrifice inexplicably.

Ding!

The elevator opens the door.

On the floor where the cardinal Sobia is located, after exiting the elevator, the bodyguards in charge of this floor were replaced by the Knights Templar that the Vatican had transferred to our bishops.

Holy.

cure.

Brave.

Karen came here by Archbishop Sobia's special plane, so these Templars knew Karen, and after checking Lake's documents, they led them to the archbishop's room.

Lake absorbs these free holiness, healing and bravery.

It is different from plundering darkness. After the plundered darkness is absorbed by the Force Seed, almost ninety-nine percent of it is used to expand the root system of the Force Seed.

But these holiness, healing, and bravery, after being absorbed by the Force Seed, act on the sprouts of the Force Seed that broke through the ground.

It's amazing.

This is what Lake thought in his heart, restraining the Force Seed from wanting to let go of the plundering mood, the Vatican is different from hell, there is nothing to do with hell, if the Vatican...

Uh.

In fact, nothing happened.

But you can't use your body to do this. At least, it doesn't work right now. Not being counseled is not brainless, and reckless is not brainless.

quickly.

After entering the cardinal's room, after Karen and the cardinal hugged, their eyes fell on Lake.

"Director Edwin."

"……bishop."

Lake looked at the right hand that Bishop Sobia handed over, and after shook it, he started talking directly: "Bishop, my mother said, do you want to see me?"

This is why Lake came here this morning.

but……

Lake is still very confused. Why did the bishop of the Vatican want to see him? Could it be that my identity as the spokesperson of love and justice was discovered?

Archbishop Sobia is about seventy years old, but from the outside, he can describe it as a childlike face.

Regarding Lake’s question, Archbishop Sobia nodded, but did not explain it for the first time. Instead, he invited Lake and Karen to sit on the sofa to meet the guests.

after awhile.

Archbishop Sobia also walked out of his bedroom. After sitting on the sofa, he looked at Lake: "Director Edwin, I understand that you are the director of the New York State Department of Homeland Security, and you are also the Department of Homeland Security. Deputy Director of Operations, is that true."

Lake nodded.

These are all information on the surface. Anyone who can access the Internet can see it. However, his title is in addition to the New York State GHS director plus the deputy director of GHS operations, as well as the title of the director of the Supernatural Activity Detection and Action Bureau.

Karen's phone rang at this time, and after taking out the phone, she smiled apologetically, and then said to Lake: "It's your father's. I'll go out and answer the phone."

Lake smiled.

After Karen went out.

Archbishop Sobia said, "I want to report the crime."

Lake was taken aback for a moment: "What?"

Live to hell?

A cardinal archbishop of the Vatican met with a federal executive like him. The first sentence of the meeting was to report a crime?

What an international joke.

Lake returned to his senses and looked at Archbishop Sobia a little sorry: "Sorry, Archbishop, I'm from the Department of Homeland Security, not the CIA, unless, what you said is suspected of endangering federal homeland security."

Archbishop Sobia said directly: "There are people from the Federation who wantonly slaughter civilians and bury the truth for their own interests overseas. Is this considered a threat to the security of the Federation?"

Lake opened his mouth and looked at Archbishop Sobia again: "This kind of thing is difficult to define. For example, I have to ask, Archbishop, do you have any evidence?"

Sobia received the information from a bodyguard next to him, and then handed it to Lake.

Lake took it and opened the information.

The shocking photos were printed in Lake's eyes.

Judging from the content of the photos, it can be seen that these corpses are all civilians. If there is any difference, it is that the skin color is all black.

Then there is the bullet report.

Judging from the bullet report, most of them are standard bullets of the federal military.

but……

This cannot prove anything.

Turn over again.

A section of the oil pipeline appears on the photo.

Lake raised his eyebrows and looked up at Archbishop Sobia.

quite a while.

Lake frowned and closed the documents: "Archbishop, I have to ask, why are you looking for me?"

What the cardinal wanted to say was actually very simple, and Lake knew it after seeing the photos.

The federal military slaughtered civilians in a village for an oil pipeline. Perhaps the reason was that the village did not want the oil pipeline to pass by them.

can……

What's happening in Africa, it's my shit, it's the Department of Homeland Security?

Archbishop Sobia explained Lake’s question: "I have seen the necklace on your mother's neck."

Lake raised his eyebrows.

Karen looked down at the cross necklace that Lake had given her at the time and asked her to wear it all the time.

Rebirth Ankh.

[Rebirth Ankh: Item type, SSR level, mystery system, the person holding this object can be resurrected within five minutes after death, and the body will be restored to its best condition. 】

Sobia looked at Lake: "I can feel the holiness of this ankh and your care for Karen."

Lake was unmoved and shook his head: "This is not a reason."

It was the military that did it.

The oil pipeline is from Wall Street.

Obviously, this is a premeditated case, and Lake is not interested yet. What justice is there for a group of Xiao Hei, especially a group of dead Xiao Hei.

I am not a Virgin, nor do I have that time in Africa.

Lake said directly: "In this case, there was neither the death of the federal citizens nor the evidence that it endangered national security. Sorry, I really don't understand. Why did the archbishop look for me?"
