The Blacklist

Chapter 101 The conditions here are much better
On May 5, SER members who had no cases on hand went upstairs to see Kerry and were very envious of SLR's office environment. About a hundred staff members used four floors, and each person's office was spacious and bright.

In these four floors, in addition to the closed-management computer room, backup motor room, and armory, there are also restaurants, water bars, gyms, changing rooms, bathrooms, lounges and other facilities.

Speaking of which, the only additional facility that SER has over SLR is the indoor shooting range on the second underground floor... oh, and there's also an extra "box" on the third underground floor!
Kerry's large office is on the eighth floor, covering an area of ​​150 square meters. The huge floor-to-ceiling south window uses dark double-layer bulletproof glass with adjustable light filtering, which ensures sufficient light while ensuring privacy and security. To the east is a large desk and bookshelf, to the west is a comfortable combination sofa area, a small bar and a peculiar root carving tea table...

"Wow!" Elizabeth exclaimed when she entered the office, "Oh my God, Lee, are you here to work?"

Donald curled his lips and said, "I think he uses this place as a vacation home."

Gina, who brought them in, smiled and went behind the desk to write a report for Kerry.

Mira went over and sat on the sofa to try it out, and said, “Guys, this sofa is really comfortable!”

Aram walked to the small bar, picked up a bottle of diet cola from it, and turned around and said, "Lee, can I drink this?"

"Of course!" Kerry, who knew they were coming and was sitting at the tea table making tea, said, "But, Aram, you should drink more tea. Too much carbonated drinks like cola are not good for you."

"There's nothing I can do about it. I really don't like tea!" Alam sat down on the sofa while drinking a Coke.

Elizabeth and Donald walked to the tea table, sat opposite Carrie, and each picked up a cup of tea to taste it. During their previous work together, they had already learned to like drinking tea.

Mira stood up and took a can of coffee from the small bar. After opening it and taking a sip, she said, "Lee, you know, Cooper convinced the deputy minister and actually recruited Nawabi into the SER team!"

Kerry drank tea and asked, "So what do you think of her?"

"I think she's a nice person!" Aram said first, and then he realized that the others were looking at him meaningfully. He raised his hand and added, "This is just my personal feeling. It has no real meaning!"

Mira stopped looking at Aram and looked at Kerry and said, "I don't like Nawabi very much, but I think it may be because her experience is too similar to mine!"

Everyone understood what she meant. Mira was seconded to SER from the CIA, and Nawabi was from Mossad. Both of them were female intelligence agents, and there must be some feeling of attraction between them.

Donald put down his teacup and said hesitantly, "I'm not sure about this person. I always feel that she has a lot of secrets and she doesn't seem to be the same kind of person as us!"

"Don, be tolerant. Nawabi has just arrived." Elizabeth said, "A female agent has just arrived at a new department. She is bound to be wary. We need to give her some time."

"Huh? Liz, you seem to have grown up!" Carrie said in amazement, "You are considerate now!"

"Lee, you are saying weird things and laughing at me!" Elizabeth said angrily, "Do you think what I said is wrong?" "First of all, I think you are right." Carrie poured more tea for the two and herself, "But, I think Tang and Mira are also right."

Before Elizabeth could ask what this meant, Aram said, "Lee, are you saying that my feeling is wrong?"

Kerry looked at Aram, who had become love-brained, with some helplessness, and could only say: "Your feeling is also right, because Nawabi obviously treats you differently. Maybe you two have something in common!"

Something in common? Aram immediately thought, "Yes, Nawabi and I both have Middle Eastern ancestry..."

Haha... everyone laughed. Although this was obvious, Alam's expression proved that he really fell in love with Nawabi at first sight!

At this moment, Elizabeth's phone rang, and it was Reddington who answered...

The information provided by Reddington this time was not a person's name, but seven recent violent injury cases in Washington. He believed that someone was secretly conducting mind control experiments.

There was a case, so Donald and the others had to leave and go downstairs to work.

Kerry knew about the case but didn't want to get involved because what was supposed to happen had already happened. The mastermind behind the case was just a psychologist who was fired because a government project was stopped. Donald, Elizabeth and others should be able to catch him soon. Of course, this was also because there was no "oil and water" to be made in this case!
In the following days, the SER team successfully caught the pathological psychologist, but then received a new and even more outrageous case - an extreme environmentalist pretending to be a hypocrite found the pneumonic plague virus from 700 years ago and wanted to use it to eliminate mankind!
This case is even more outrageous and boring, and Carrey is also not involved.

May has passed, and SLR has not taken on any new cases. However, with the two gains in the middle of May, the IRS is already very satisfied with them!
June 6nd was Monday, which was the traditional Chinese festival Dragon Boat Festival. Carrie, Gina, and Elizabeth went to Chinatown in the morning to buy a lot of rice dumplings, which they brought to the old post office building to share with the members of SER and SLR. Most of them liked them very much.

In the morning, Elizabeth came upstairs to see him, "Lee, Reddington just gave me a new blacklist person, and said that you would like to participate in this case because you can receive a lot of taxes."

Of course Kerry was interested in this, so he went to SER with her, and everyone gave him a warm welcome.

Elizabeth began to introduce the case, “Four days ago, a precisely skinned body was found on the coast of Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia. His name is Joseph Batuaala, a Kenyan, a member of the Wanjiku Group;
"This man is suspected of being the mastermind behind the massacre of animals in Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe last year, where cyanide was injected into the park's drinking water pipes, killing 300 elephants and thousands of other animals...

“In addition, six high-ranking leaders of other poaching groups are also missing.

"Reddington said that the mastermind behind this is the Mombasa Group. The purpose of doing this is to eliminate competitors and monopolize the illegal animal trade! The controller of this organization is the Mombasa Cartel."

Alam quickly looked up the relevant information and said, "I can't find the registration information of Mombasa Group. It doesn't seem to be a formally registered company."
