The Blacklist

Chapter 69 Red Devil Decides to Tell the Truth
"Aram, issue a wanted order immediately and find this Tanida Zhen." Cooper ordered, "Tang, Mira, you are responsible for finding Agent Jenica! Oh, Richard, do you have anything to add?"

Cooper's last question was a little sudden, and everyone was stunned when they heard it. Was this to confirm that Kerry was the second-in-command of SER? However, everyone immediately accepted it and thought that Kerry deserved it!

Kerry was also stunned for a moment, but immediately recognized this new identity and said, "Indeed, there is another very important matter, which is the safety of Donald and Audrey.

"Well, Don, Mira, your mission will be completed by Gina, Liz and I. The two of you will stay in the post office and be responsible for protecting Audrey. Don't leave until Tanida Makoto is captured."

"No, I want to catch Tanida Makoto myself!" Donald objected. "As for Audrey, I have a small house in Prince George's County. I can send her there first, and Tanida Makoto won't be able to find her."

Carrie looked at Cooper and saw him nod to let her decide, so she said, "Okay, you can go on with your mission, but Audrey can't leave the post office." Seeing that Donald wanted to say more, she immediately emphasized, "Don, is there any place safer than the post office now? What about the small house? If something goes wrong, it will be too late for you to regret it!"

Donald then realized that since the last invasion, the post office's security system had been fully upgraded and had reached the ultimate in security. Audrey was indeed safest here, so he immediately accepted the order humbly.

Even so, Carrey still arranged for two grassroots female agents to go to the service department to closely protect Audrey and absolutely prohibited her from leaving the post office to avoid the tragedy in the original plot.

Although Cooper thought that his arrangement was a bit excessive, he did not object. He just called him upstairs when he returned and gave him a newly received electronic transfer document, which stated that the General Administration officially appointed Richard Carey as the deputy director of the SER Special Operations Group and the "Post Office" operations base, with the authority to take over all affairs of SER and the Post Office when Cooper was unable to perform his duties.

Cooper and Carrie both understood that this was the sequelae of Cooper's kidnapping last time, and they wanted to prevent SER from being leaderless when similar incidents happened again.

There is actually nothing to discuss about this matter. Soon this order will be sent to the computer terminals of all SER members. Given Carrie's current situation, no one will raise any objections.

Cooper then asked Carrie why she cared so much about Donald's girlfriend Audrey?

"Boss, I'm going to tell you something about Don, but you can't tell anyone else." Kerry said mysteriously, "Gina told me that Audrey is pregnant, but Don doesn't know yet!"

"Oh! Really?" Cooper was also very happy. This was a good thing, but... "Why didn't Audrey tell Don?"

"According to Gina, Audrey is still not sure whether Don is willing to get married, so she doesn't know whether to bring this up!" Carrie said, "Actually, I think Don is willing to be with Audrey, but this guy is always slow to react on this kind of thing."

Hearing him say this, Cooper touched his chin and said while thinking: "Richard, do you think we should help Tang?"

Carrie wanted to nod in agreement, but then he thought of a better idea, so he organized his words and put forward the new idea, which made Cooper laugh!

When Carrie left Cooper's office and went downstairs, she found that Reddington had not left, but sat behind his desk, writing something on a piece of paper with a pen. Seeing Carrie coming back, there were only Gina, Elizabeth, and Demby in the office, so Reddington asked directly, "Richard, did you also suspect that I was the one who killed Donald's friend?"

"No." Carrie said, "Doing so will not bring you any benefit, so your efforts will not be in vain."

"Haha!" Reddington laughed, "I knew you understood me."

Kerry shook his head and laughed, then walked to the sofa beside him, where a new tea set he bought from Chinatown was placed. While boiling water to make tea, he said, "Lao Lei, just tell me what you want from me."

Reddington put away his smile, looked at Elizabeth who was sitting next to him, and said, "Richard, I want you to be a witness, because I want to talk to Liz about Tom!"

Tom's business? Elizabeth immediately turned her head and looked at him, and asked, "What's Tom's business?"

Reddington did not answer her question, but said to Carrie: "Things are a little urgent. I think I have to tell Liz something, otherwise I'm afraid of delaying things."

"Have you thought it through?" Carrie knew what he was going to say, but she still confirmed it.

"I've thought about it." Reddington said, "I want to say it now."

"OK, I'll be your witness." Carrie also felt that the time was right, and it would be better to make things clear to avoid more trouble in the future. In the original plot, you hid this from me, and I hid that from you. In the end, everything was misunderstood, and a lot of personnel and materials were lost in vain. What a waste!
Reddington nodded to express his gratitude, then motioned for Dembe to guard the door of the office and not let anyone in for the time being. Then he said to Elizabeth, "What I am going to say in a moment will make you uncomfortable, but please stay calm and listen carefully to what happened! During this process, Richard will bear witness to my words, and you should be able to trust his judgment."

Elizabeth realized something, tried to calm herself down, and said firmly: "Okay, I will listen to everything you say carefully, let's start!"

"First of all, I have to confess one thing to you, that is, Tom is fictional and he did not exist originally." Reddington's first sentence was explosive enough. Dembe was an insider, and no one knew how much Carrie knew, but Gina and Elizabeth listened with a dazed look on their faces, not knowing whether the words they heard were literal.

After Elizabeth calmed down a little, Reddington explained: "Liz, I found you three years ago. At that time, you had just joined the FBI's New York branch and became a trainee profiler. I was busy with many things at the time and had no way to show up directly, so I found a man named "Major" and asked him to choose his best "disguiser" student to go to your side and protect you in life..."

"Is this person Tom?" Elizabeth asked with a trembling voice.
