MTL - Legendary FBI Detective-Chapter 146 The man with the water gun

  Chapter 146 The man playing with the water gun

   At an intersection some distance away from Wall Street, the Chevrolet slowly stopped on the side of the road.

  Looking at the unfamiliar number on the phone, Roan pressed the answer button.

   "It's me, Roan."

  Hearing the familiar voice from the other end of the phone, Luo An raised his eyebrows.

   It turned out to be Vernis.

   "Good afternoon, sir."

  Although he was a little puzzled about why Verinis changed her phone number, Roan didn't worry about it, but asked with a smile:

   "Are there any new tasks?"

  Verinis did not answer Roan's question, but asked:

"Where are you now?"

"Forehead"

  Roan blinked and did not hide the itinerary from Vernis, saying that he was on his way to Wall Street.

   Knowing that Roan had something to do on Wall Street, Vernis on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and said softly:

   "Go and do your own business first, and then come to me after you finish your work. I have something to ask you."

   "Okay, sir."

  Although he was a little puzzled about what Verniss asked him to do at this time, Roan nodded and agreed.

   "Bye."

  Verinis on the other end of the phone didn't talk nonsense, and hung up the phone immediately after speaking.

   Seeing this, Roan started Chevrolet again and went to Wall Street.

  Wall Street is in the southern part of Manhattan, New York, extending from Broadway to the East River.

  The streets here are too narrow, Roan parked the Chevrolet on the outside, and then walked slowly into the New York Stock Exchange.

  Roann Greenwood has worked on Wall Street before, and is familiar with opening accounts, buying stocks, buying and selling, and so on.

   What surprised Roan was that at this point in time, Apple's stock price hadn't risen to $50, but was instead $47.

  At this moment, Roan did not hesitate, and immediately exchanged the 1.2 million US dollars in his hand for Apple shares.

  After the transaction was completed, Roan looked at the information on the computer, and the smile on his face gradually became thicker:

   "The next step is to wait for Jobs to release new products."

  Thinking of the news about cutting out kidneys for mobile phones in later generations...

  Buying stocks can actually be done on the computer of the No. 5 investigation team.

  The reason why Luo An insisted on coming to Wall Street was more because he wanted to see the scenery of Wall Street.

  For example, the big copper bull.

  Looking at the memory of the predecessor, and seeing it with your own eyes, after all, there are two kinds of feelings.

   But after entering Wall Street, besides the tourists, many people left gave Roan a very uncomfortable feeling.

The late sociologist and playwright Philip Slater coined the term "money addiction" in his 1980 book, and said in that book that 80% of people who work on Wall Street have it. symptoms.

  They are energetic, competitive, greedy, ambitious, possess wealth, and can see sums of money flowing in their hands every day.

   But at the same time, they are also under great pressure, abusing drugs and alcohol, and women are an indispensable tool for them to vent their pressure.

  The man playing with the water gun performed "The Wolf of Wall Street". After making money, everyone eats flour openly in the lobby of the office, takes off their pants and then has a party. In fact, all of them are based on real life

  —

Hospital.

  Roan, holding fruits and flowers in his arms, knocked lightly on the door of Verinisi's ward.

"Enter."

   Entering the ward, Roan immediately saw Vernis lying on the bed, watching TV news from boredom.

  Because of being injured and lying on the hospital bed, Vernis' face was pale at this time, and she looked much thinner than before.

   Not only that, but the biggest difference from the past is actually Vernis's temperament.

  On weekdays, Verinisi's makeup is cold and her temperament is sharp. At first glance, she gives the impression that she is a strong woman who is not easy to mess with.

At this time, Vernis was buried under the quilt, with a few thin hairs stuck to her forehead, coupled with her pale face, and her brows slightly frowned due to the pain of the wound, instantly gave Roan a sense of relief. There came a strange broken beauty.

  Shaking his head, putting away the messy thoughts in his heart, Luo An walked to the hospital bed with a smile on his face, and said:

   "Good evening, sir."

"sit."

   Seeing the fruits and flowers that Roan brought, Verinisi felt a little happy in her heart, but at the same time felt a little helpless.

  Her biggest wound is on her abdomen. She cannot eat food in the near future, and can only drink a little water at most.

   Inserting the flowers into a vase beside him, Roan first helped Vernis fill up the water glass, then tilted his head and chatted with her.

  The two chatted not much, most of which were related to the case.

   There is no way, Roan only knows that Verinis is alone, without a boyfriend, and her daily life is a two-point line between the house and the work unit, and she doesn't know what relatives and friends she has, let alone meet them.

  Besides the case, Roan really didn't know what to talk about with Verinis.

   But Verinis is very happy about this, she prefers cases and work to the trivial gossip of life.

   During the chat, most of the time Roan was narrating, and Vernis was listening, and then occasionally asked one or two short questions.

  Hearing some wonderful points in the case, Verini Silue's pale face slowly showed a smile, and she looked at Roan with a more inexplicable meaning.

   After a while, Roan saw that Verinisi's spirit was a little weaker than when he first came, so he immediately changed the subject and asked with a smile:

   "Sir, you said earlier that you had something to ask me for, but you don't know what it is?"

  Verinis smiled for a moment, then turned her gaze to the cabinet beside her, and said softly:

   "There's a business card there, which was given to you by an officer from Washington.

  Put it away. If you encounter unsolvable problems in the future, call this number, and the other party may provide you with some help. "

  Seeing the phone number on the business card and the separate 'Clement' surname, Roan frowned.

  He remembered Verenice's last name, it seemed to be Clement.

  After the bombing, Mr. Clement in Washington received the news immediately.

  Knowing that Verenice's life was not in danger, Clement heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately asked the secretary to bring the details of the case to his desk.

   But before Clement could check it out, the president in the White House called him over because of some things.

   In desperation, Clement had no choice but to put this aside in advance, and then went to meet the president.

  The matter on the President's side involved multiple departments, with mixed interests and troublesome details. When Mr. Clement finally returned to his office, the case was over.

  Seeing the investigation process of the case written in the report sent by the secretary, as well as the name of Roan Greenwood, Clement sitting on the chair was shocked and had an extremely complicated expression.

  He opened his mouth several times but didn't know what to say, and finally he only spit out one word:

   "Fu-k!"

   After a long silence, Clement signaled the secretary to go to Vernis's ward. While visiting Vernis, he also handed his business card to Roan.

  The unfamiliar phone number just now was Verniss calling from her secretary's cell phone.

   Put away the business card, chat with Verinis for a while, and Roan left the ward voluntarily.

  The next day, after talking to Augustus, Roan didn't go to work directly, but went to the robbed banks first.

   Security consultants don't get paid for nothing.
