Legendary FBI Detective-Chapter 129: My Home is Actually Quite Big

The next day, Team Five.

"Good morning, Mona."

Luo An, carrying a breakfast bag, pushed open the door and entered. Besides Reesi, who was asleep on her desk, he saw Mona typing away at her keyboard.

After yesterday's events, Reesi went to the hospital for a night shift to watch Jacques, while Luo An drove his Chevrolet home to sleep and rest.

"Good morning, Luo An."

Sitting down at his desk, Luo An took a bite of his breakfast and asked doubtfully:

"Mona, why did you come so early today?"

Usually, Mona would arrive at work together with Augustus on time.

"I actually came here last night."

Upon hearing Luo An's question, Mona shook her head, indicating that after yesterday's events, she hesitated for a long time before deciding to completely clear out her room before moving back in.

Thus, Mona drove to the Jacob Federation Building last night and spent the night in the Team Five office area.

While saying this, Mona took the opportunity to ask:

"Luo An, can you introduce me to the renovation company that renovated your apartment?"

The small apartment that Mona bought was already renovated and ready to move in.

The incident with Jacques made Mona consider renovating it anew.

"No problem."

It was a small matter for Luo An; he agreed with a wave of his hand, then smiled and asked:

"Mona, are you going to rest in the office area tonight as well? My place is actually quite large…"

Hearing Luo An's words, Mona did not respond but simply rolled her eyes at him.

Soon, all members of Team Five arrived.

As usual, Augustus entered the doors of Team Five on time.

After briefly discussing the day's tasks, all the agents started their work.

Today, there were no new cases assigned to Team Five. The tasks of Team Five's agents involved managing the follow-up procedures for car accident and explosion cases.

In any country, solving a case doesn't end with catching the culprit.

The follow-ups include writing case reports, contacting court judges, setting trial dates, liaising with the prosecutor's office, contacting prisons, handling case evidence, and many other tasks.

Compared to the NYPD, the FBI processes these tasks faster and the procedures are much more streamlined.

However, adding up all the various steps, it is still a lot.

If the entire process of handling a case were divided into ten steps, finding clues and catching the culprit would only constitute the first four steps.

These four steps are the most difficult, but the following six are the most exhausting.

No matter the country, the process is the same.

Tiring and complicated.

However, Luo An generally doesn't participate much in these tasks.

Since Luo An joined Team Five and successfully solved his first case, case reporting, among other tasks, have always been written by whichever member of Team Five had time to help him out.

Mona wrote the most for him.

As the team leader, Augustus mostly takes care of post-case handling of the expenditures during the investigation process, as well as archiving the case files.

Reesi and Reed mainly spend their time after a case guarding the suspects and liaising with prisons.

William and other technical staff handle contacting court judges, helping suspects apply for lawyers, setting court dates, liaising with the prosecutor's office, and handling case evidence.

Of course, no one in Team Five is unsatisfied with such work arrangements.

The reason is simple — Luo An consistently leads them to solve cases.

Before Luo An's arrival, Team Five had just been established, and it was better not to mention their case-solving rate.

The agents could only receive a basic salary, and they had never seen a bonus before.

But ever since Luo An arrived, the clearance rate of Team Five had skyrocketed.

Although their salary remained the same, their bonuses were drastically increased, and they would always receive a gratuity after solving a case.

These funds, and the reason for their improved living standards, were clear to all members of Team Five.

Thus, while members of Team Five were busy writing documents or making phone calls, Luo An sat at his desk staring at the computer screen, seemingly out of place within the external discrepancy.

However, no one in the office complained, nor did anyone behind their backs.

Luo An was not aware of what his colleagues were thinking; at the moment, he was examining the screen in front of him.

His performance yesterday had been rated as excellent by the system, and the rewards were as expected—three potions.

One was a stamina potion, another a strength potion, and the third, a swiftness potion.

All were Luo An's preferred types of potions.

He had realized that while hemostasis and antidote potions could indeed save his life in critical moments, getting injured was ultimately not ideal.

So, how could he avoid injuries?

Obviously by being more durable, stronger, and quicker!

To achieve that, he naturally needed support from the stamina, strength, and swiftness potions.

With this in mind, Luo An's lips slightly curled upwards, and a gleam shone in his eyes.

Because the stamina potion had some unexpected additional benefits...

"Luo An! Come over here for a moment."

Just as Luo An was looking down at the system's night vision potion, contemplating whether to try one tonight to see what attributes it could enhance, the voice of Augustus suddenly reached him.

Following the direction of the voice, he saw Augustus at the door of Team Five's conference room, signaling him to approach with a suited elderly Caucasian man.

The three entered the conference room and sat down, with Augustus giving a gesture:

"Luo An, this is Attorney Nicola."

Luo An appeared puzzled but still extended his hand with a smile:

"Hello, Attorney Nicola, my name is Luo An Greenwood, but just Luo An is fine."

"Hello, Agent Luo An."

The elderly Caucasian lawyer smiled back, shook hands with Luo An, and while pulling a folder out of his leather bag said:

"I represent the six banks that were recently robbed by gangsters.

Today, I'm here to have you sign a document."

Hearing the man's identity, Luo An's eyebrows raised slightly.

Looking down at the folder handed over to him, there it was—just as Vireness had mentioned before—a contract from the six banks hiring him as a safety consultant.

Blazing in the middle of the document was the salary for this consulting job—2000 US Dollars per month from each bank.

Combined, that amounted to 12000 US Dollars per month.

Of course, this money wasn't just for free; Luo An would need to provide suggestions for security improvements and equipment upgrades for these six banks.

But Luo An's eyes still lit up.

Because even after being promoted to senior agent, Luo An's monthly salary was just 3000 US Dollars.

After carefully reviewing the contract and finding no issues, Luo An signed his name.

After Attorney Nicola left the conference room, Luo An turned his attention to Augustus nearby.

Luo An remembered what Vireness had said: the bank's gratitude money would only come when someone brought him this contract to sign.

Now the contract was right in front of him—that bank's gratitude money...

Seeing the look in Luo An's eyes, Augustus also smiled broadly.
