The Blacklist

Chapter 116 Agent Kate walks into a trap
Kate was stunned for a moment, then immediately stood up and walked outside the office to make a phone call...

Cooper squinted at her back with a serious look in his eyes. There was definitely something wrong with this Kate, but in order to verify it clearly, he decided to try it again according to Richard's method.

After making more than one or two phone calls, Kate came back and said, "Deputy Director Cooper, this matter is very serious. I hope you will not deceive the department..."

"Stop!" Cooper raised his hand and gestured, "Agent Kate, no matter how serious the matter you mentioned is, it has nothing to do with us SER. In addition, I don't like your attitude. You seem to have forgotten that you are also an FBI agent. Now you are completely speaking on the side of the CIA. I doubt your loyalty!"

Kate's face changed, she said nothing more, turned around and walked out.

After waiting for ten minutes, Cooper went to find Alam alone and asked him to cut off the three parallel communication lines connected to DOJ that had been discovered earlier, and add another security firewall to the post office system; then he asked him to turn on the live broadcast monitoring in the command hall and connect it to SLR Carey's office.

Half an hour later, Agent Kate returned with a dozen armed men in suits and carrying M4A1 carbines. When they got out of the elevator, they saw Cooper standing in front of them in the lobby and shouted, "Deputy Director Cooper, hand over the escaped prisoner immediately, and the department will not pursue the matter any further! Otherwise..."

"What else?" Cooper sneered.

"Otherwise, I will take over this place immediately on behalf of the Ministry!" Kate raised a document in her hand and said sternly. As she spoke, the M4A1 carbines in the hands of more than a dozen armed men behind her were all half-raised.

The atmosphere in the command hall immediately became tense. Donald, Nawabi and others immediately drew their pistols. Cooper, who was standing in the front, remained unmoved and said, "Agent Kate, don't say that your document is not real. Even if it is real, your rank is not high enough! I think you should go back and tell your master that he made a wrong calculation if he wanted to move SER!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two teams of fully armed action team members suddenly emerged from the fire escapes on both sides of the hall. All of them were wearing heavy bulletproof vests and explosion-proof helmets, holding a lot of P90 submachine guns in their hands, and surrounded Kate and a dozen others!

"Cooper! Do you want to disobey?" Kate's face changed drastically and she shouted harshly.

At this time, a round of applause sounded from the fire escape on the left. Kerry walked into the hall while clapping his hands. "What a sharp mouth! You still want to bite back at this time!"

Kate turned around and saw him. She was stunned and asked, "Who are you? This is an internal matter of our FBI!"

"Ha! What a coincidence, I'm also half FBI, the deputy director of the SER team!" Carrie laughed, "Kate Goodson, I'll give you a chance, order these people to put down their guns immediately, I'll give you a chance to receive a fair trial, otherwise, in ten seconds, I'll give the order to shoot!" As he raised his hand, the action team members who surrounded Kate and others immediately pointed their guns at these people, ready to go!
Kate was shocked and angry, but when she saw the other party's firm eyes, she knew that he was not lying, so she could only grit her teeth and order her men to put down their guns.

The members of the SLR action team immediately stepped forward in pairs, grabbed these people one by one, tied them up, and forced them to squat on the ground. In the end, Kate was left standing there alone, and the documents in her hands and the gun on her body were also confiscated.

At this point, Kate was still stubborn and said viciously: "Auditor Kerry, you will regret this!"

"Oh! I thought you didn't know me!" Carrie laughed.

Soon, the dozen or so armed men were also searched, and a pile of documents and pistols were piled on the table next to them.

Kerry walked over, picked up the documents and looked at them. He exclaimed in amazement, "Wow! They're all from the Virginia branch of the CIA!"

The SER people were also surprised and came forward to check, and it was indeed!
Cooper held up a CIA ID and looked at Kate, saying, "Agent Kate, can you explain why you brought a team of CIA personnel from other places to take over the FBI's field agency?" Hearing this, Kate was speechless. No matter how she explained it, it didn't make sense.

"He's a traitor!" Carrie said directly, "Agent Kate must have been bribed by the CIA a long time ago. He acted against the FBI on the orders of his master!"

"Cooper, I demand to contact the department immediately!" Kate ignored him and said to Cooper.

Cooper said coldly: "I will, but you'd better explain why you brought armed CIA personnel here. Tang, Nawabi, take her to the interrogation room."

"Yes, boss." The two men agreed and went forward to take Kate away.

At this time, Alam had called the SER action team to take away the dozen CIA personnel and send them to the detention room. The SLR people also gathered and went upstairs. This time it was just a help between neighbors.

Carrie said, "Harold, is there anything else I can do?"

"No need, Richard, I can take care of the rest," Cooper said.

"OK." Carrie turned around and was about to go upstairs, and suddenly said, "Harold, find a time, I have something to talk to you about."

"Okay, I'll come find you when I'm done." Cooper nodded.

When Carrie went upstairs, Gina and Elizabeth had finished a round of physical training, showered, changed clothes, and were drinking coffee in the office. When they saw him come in, they asked what was going on downstairs.

"Very good, we have caught Kate!" Carrie said, "Now, the CIA will have a headache." As he spoke, he picked up the new tea that Gina had brewed and took a sip. The temperature was just right.

Elizabeth asked, "What's up with Agent Kate? Why is she working for the CIA?"

"Remember the 'secret society' that Lao Lei and I told you about?" Carrie walked to the sofa and sat down.

"Remember, you said it was a very mysterious organization that manipulated many things behind the scenes, even the politics of some countries..." Elizabeth had a good memory.

"This Kate should be a member of the secret society, or a subordinate developed by the secret society." Carrie said, "Of course, she may know it herself, or she may not know it, or she may even be deceived into thinking that she is doing secret work for the country."

"But she is a Level 4 special agent in the department and can serve as the deputy minister's work representative. How can someone of this level be someone's subordinate?" Elizabeth was still puzzled.

Kerry shrugged and said, "There are two possibilities. One is that her superior is of a higher rank or has greater power than her. The other is that she was able to reach her current position because her superior or the secret society pushed her to this position. Of course, it could be both."
