A retired reincarnator from a certain American film studio

Alexander...

say what?

Luke frowned and looked at Cipher.

"How do you say this?"

"You do not know?"

"what do you know?"

"its not right."

Cipher looked at the expression on Luke's face: "Didn't you just say that you knew Roland Frey used to be Alexander's man, but isn't anymore?"

Luke nodded: "It was me who said it. Alexander told me last night when he said you would be coming today, but he didn't say anything else."

Seifer suddenly realized.

"I see."

"what happens?"

Lu Ke glanced at the time on his wristwatch.

It's only 4:30 pm now, still a long time before I get off work.

Moreover, Rachel just told him on the phone not to go home too early tonight, preferably after six o'clock, so that he wouldn't scare the boy who was picking Lorna up for the dance.

He just said it offhand last night.

But the two women in the house seemed to take it seriously.

Lu Ke shook his head speechlessly.

Perfect timing, I'll just have some gossip about Hydra to pass the time.

Luke thought to himself, then grabbed the bourbon beside him, poured Cipher another glass, handed it to him, and said with a smile, "Speak more?"

Respectful before and after.

Nothing more than that.

As Cipher looked at Luke, who was holding a wine glass to her, an idiom she had learned while browsing the internet in the East during her online romance with Luke flashed through her mind. It couldn't be more fitting to use it here.

Then she remembered a sentence she had learned on the Eastern Internet while using a VPN.

"Luke, are you a dog?"

"Ok?"

Lu Ke laughed and said, "You seem to know a lot about Eastern culture, even the Chinese zodiac, but you're not very knowledgeable about it. I'm not a dog."

Cipher sneered, "Is that so? Didn't you just kick me out? What, is it a tradition of you Easterners to use and then discard someone?"

talking.

Cipher got up from the sofa, ignoring Luke, and prepared to walk towards the door.

Luke shook his head helplessly, grabbed Cipher's arm as he passed by her, and pulled him back into his arms with a forceful pull.

He swore he hadn't stopped Cipher because he wanted to hear gossip.

Lu Ke just felt that if he were out in the East, it would be bad if other people from the East found out that he was the one ruining the reputation of good men from the East.

That's it.

Cipher, pulled back into Luke's arms, stared at Luke, who was looking down at her.

"What are you doing?"

"Dry."

Luke speaks concisely and prefers to use actions rather than words.

The Lüshi Chunqiu states...

There's nothing that can't be solved with a single shot.

If there is.

Then two shots.

and so……

Luke fired.

Outside the office.

Standing outside, Jack listened to the sounds of fighting coming from inside again, and couldn't help but sigh. He looked up, then silently took a few more steps to the side until he could no longer hear the fighting inside before stopping.

Ding!

The elevator door opens.

Jack subconsciously looked towards the elevator lobby, and when he saw that it was Debbie who came out instead of Earl, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief for some reason.

Debbie, holding documents in her hand, looked at Jack standing in the hallway and asked curiously, "What are you doing? Is the boss inside?"

Seeing that Debbie was also about to follow Earl's example and head towards Luke's office, Jack quickly stopped her: "Boss is busy, is there something you need?"

Debbie was slightly taken aback, but unlike Earl, she didn't think too much about it and handed the documents in her hand to Jack directly: "Then you can give this to the boss later. This is what the boss wants. It's the family background information of that high school boy, as well as the information of his parents, maternal grandparents, and paternal grandparents. It's all been compiled."

talking.

Debbie slapped the documents in her hand into Jack's arms, then turned and walked back into the elevator.

She still had some work to finish downstairs and was about to leave work. She was hoping to leave early tonight so she could treat her teacher, whom she was finally meeting in person, to a meal.

if you can……

She hoped to deepen her relationship with her teacher tonight.

Debbie felt that her teacher probably thought the same way.

Otherwise, why would my teacher be at the Federal Building today? He can't possibly be here to see Luke, can he?

Lu Kecai had only known his teacher for a few days, but she had known him for many years.

Ok.

The teacher's claim that she wanted to meet with Lu Ke was just an excuse; the teacher came here specifically to see her.

That's right.

It must be like this.

Debbie felt a surge of excitement as she thought about the potential for their teacher-student relationship to deepen tonight. She quickly took out her phone to book a table at a nice restaurant for couples.

obviously.

Debbie could never have imagined that her teacher was being beaten up in the office right now, and that she was experiencing both pain and pleasure.

Forty-five minutes and thirty-nine seconds later.

The high-powered air purifier in the office started running again.

Leaning back on the sofa, Luke looked at Cipher, whose long blond hair was slightly damp with sweat, reached out and smoothed Cipher's blond hair, and smiled, "Now you can tell me, right?"

Cipher rolled his eyes at Luke, got up from Luke without any hesitation, and walked towards the office restroom.

A thud.

Seifer closed the bathroom door.

Lu Ke got up from the sofa, quickly dressed, and sat back down, looking with interest at the closed bathroom door.

after awhile.

When Cipher emerged from the restroom again, he seemed to have instantly returned to his previous aloof and dignified demeanor.

Luke watched this scene with a hint of surprise in his eyes, then looked at Cipher, who was staring at him coldly, and said with a smile, "Now who's not keeping a straight face after eating? Here's a hint: this time it's not me."

There was actually no sense of unfamiliarity between him and Cipher.

Thanks to the fact that we had been exchanging thousands of emails almost every day for a period of time.

Let's say that.

In their recent emails, he and Cipher had discussed whether to name their third daughter Mira or Avril.

Well known.

Whether male or female, people tend to be very open and extroverted online. However, no matter how open the conversation is online, there will always be an awkward and unfamiliar period when meeting someone offline for the first time.

Luke will have the same.

But for now.

After two enthusiastic exchanges with Cipher, in which they used phrases they had used in their online chats, Luke had already gotten through the awkward period.

As for whether Cipher got through this awkward period, Luke thinks he probably did.

Cipher glanced coldly at Luke, ignoring his outstretched hands, sat down on the sofa next to her, grabbed a wine glass, downed it in one gulp, and said directly to Luke, "Roland Fury was indeed Alexander's man before, but a dozen days ago, he received news that the team responsible for researching 'superpowers' had a mole from the Ten Rings."

Luke nodded: "I know."

He was the one who told Alexander about this.

Luke frowned: "But what does this have to do with Roland Frey betraying Alexander?"

Cipher chuckled.

“Daniel Whitehead has wanted to get involved in this ‘superpower project’ for a long time.”

“Originally, even if Daniel Whitehead wanted to take this project away, it wouldn’t have been easy.”

"Because Alexander has always been in charge of the 'superpower serum'."

"But this time, after it was exposed that the Ten Rings had an inside source in this project, it gave Daniel Whitehead this opportunity."

At this point, Cipher looked at Luke and said, "You should be able to guess who leaked this information, right?"

Luke nodded.

"Roland Frey?"

"it's him."
