Nick Fury stared at Luke with a blank expression.
With his hands in his pockets, Luke stood tall and straight like a cypress tree, smiling as he met Nick Fury's one-eyed gaze.
next second.
Nick Fury said, "Three days it is. If I'm wrong after three days, I will apologize to Director Dane in person."
Luke smiled and said, "The National Security Agency also needs to clarify this matter with the White House and the Department of Justice."
"it is good!"
Nick Fury nodded without hesitation.
Luke looked at Earl beside him.
Earl took out a voice recorder from his pocket, turned it on, and the conversation between Luke and Nick Fury just came through the recorder.
Luke nodded and looked at Nick Fury: "Sorry, it's better to have evidence than just empty words. Take care, Director Fury, see you in three days."
Jack, who was blocking the doorway, stepped aside to make way.
Nick Fury gave Luke one last deep look, then said "Let's go" to Coulson and Natasha before leaving the conference room.
Luke returned to his previous seat, grabbed the bourbon on the table, and took another sip.
Earl followed Jack, who had escorted Nick Fury and the other two to the elevator, back into the small conference room.
Jack was a little confused: "Boss, why did you let them reopen the case?"
Earl, standing to the side, frowned and said, "We've always had a good relationship with District Attorney Maas, so why would he suddenly change his mind?"
Luke ignored Jack's question and smiled at Earl, saying, "Mas is the District Attorney's chief, and he has a good relationship with every law enforcement agency."
Put it plainly.
He's just a complete opportunist.
If any law enforcement agency comes to Maas, he will agree. But if another law enforcement agency comes to tell Maas not to do it, Maas will also agree. Then the first law enforcement agency will come to Maas again, and Maas will still agree.
This creates a vicious cycle.
"but……"
Lu Ke shook his head with a smile: "If he weren't such a fickle person, I wouldn't have bothered with him."
Earl listened to Luke's words and seemed to realize something: "Chief, you deliberately let them know that you did this."
Jack's eyes widened: "Intentional? Boss, why?"
Luke glanced at Jack, then looked at Earl.
Earl frowned, then met Luke's gaze: "The chief wants the other party to believe that there's something wrong with this case. Otherwise, the chief wouldn't have gone to the district attorney's office, wanting them to close the case as soon as possible, but..."
Luke looked at Earl, whose expression at this point looked exactly like someone who needed to grow a brain.
"But what?"
"The director did this on purpose to make the other party think that there was a problem with our case files, so that they would definitely use the case files as a pretext."
Earl's eyes lit up as he said this: "The chief deliberately waited for them to speak before giving them the authority to reopen the case?"
Luke smiled and asked, "Then why do you think I did this?"
Earl frowned, trying to think.
but……
"do not know."
"Do you think that even if I close this case, they might still investigate secretly?"
"of course."
Earl nodded without hesitation.
Lu Ke laughed and said, "Since they're going to investigate on their own no matter what, I'll let them investigate in the open."
Upon hearing this, Earl's heart stirred, and he looked at Luke: "I understand, Director."
Luke smiled as he looked at Earl, who had finally come to his senses. "Good that you understand."
Jack, standing to the side, listened to their conversation and scratched his head with both hands.
He felt like something was growing inside.
Jack couldn't help but say to Earl, "What do you understand? I don't understand a word you said."
Earl rolled his eyes at Jack: "These past few months, you've been spending all your time in the gym building muscle, you haven't had time to use your brain in the study."
But complaints are complaints.
Earl continued to explain to Jack.
It's actually very simple.
The younger brother of an assistant director of the National Security Bureau died, and the cause of death was so negative. This assistant director of the National Security Bureau will certainly not let this go.
No matter what, they will definitely come and conduct their own investigation.
So Luke made an appointment to play golf with District Attorney Maas yesterday, and as Assistant Director of Federal Operations, anyone who knows Luke's schedule naturally has a way of finding out.
For example, Nick Fury.
This is why Nick Fury came straight to the office early in the morning, made a phone call, and Luke received a call from the fickle Musk the very next second.
"There is a difference between a private investigation and an open investigation."
"You can investigate privately for as long as you want."
"But it's different when it's out in the open."
"What the director wants is for the National Security Bureau to conduct an open investigation."
"If they find nothing useful that could overturn this case file within three days, they must end any investigation into this case, including privately, and then issue a formal apology."
"..."
Jack listened to Earl's explanation, still somewhat puzzled, and scratched his head: "But what if they continue their investigation privately three days later?"
Earl couldn't help but cover his forehead: "Idiot, where is this?"
Jack frowned.
Los Santos.
"Where are they from?"
"The National Security Bureau."
"call!"
Earl lowered his head, exhaled a breath of stale air, calmed his urge to throw a punch, and looked at Jack: "I'm asking where the National Security Agency is."
Jack seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes lit up: "Washington, D.C."
Earl shook his head speechlessly: "If they continue their investigation in Los Santos after apologizing, do you think they can do it secretly without our knowledge? If they really do, don't worry, Quantico will go to the National Security Bureau demanding an explanation."
In a word.
Everything is best left unsaid.
Before it's on the desktop, you can play however you want and do whatever you want without any restrictions.
But once things are on the table, then the rules must be followed, everyone must rely on their own abilities, and then, the loser must accept the consequences.
If you lose and you still secretly resort to underhanded tactics...
This would be a major taboo.
because……
Nobody likes a player who doesn't follow the rules of the game.
……
Chapter 227 Lu Ke's identity is beyond question! (First update, please subscribe!)
When Luke got Earl to give him the position of District Attorney General Yomas, he was more like Yonick Fury than Yomas General.
He just hadn't expected Nick Fury to take the bait so quickly.
It's just like fishing.
Luke had just taken out his fishing rod, cast it out, and thrown out the first bit of bait when Nick Fury eagerly took the bait.
Moreover, he pulled Nick Fury ashore with almost no effort.
What Luke wanted was to get Nick Fury on the table to play this game.
Once it's on the desktop, it's his domain.
Game time.
He set the three-day limit.
Game rules.
If Nick Fury finds a flaw in his case file within three days, he wins; otherwise, he loses.
This also belongs to Lu Keding.
If Nick Fury dares to come to the table, Luke has plenty of ways to destroy him.
After listening to Earl's explanation, Jack had already figured it out.
But next second.
Jack opened his mouth, then seemed to think of something. He walked to the door of the conference room, opened it, and checked both sides to make sure no one was eavesdropping. Then he returned to the conference room, looked at Luke, and said in a low voice, "But boss, in the case file, we can only make indirect call records and such. We don't have anything else."
Lu Ke chuckled.
"Who says we don't have any?"
Do we have them?
Jack was dumbfounded and looked at Earl.
