No.

Just in case, when it comes time to divide power in the future, let's be frugal and divide it one planet at a time. If there's not enough, it could lead to internal strife.

Only when the family is harmonious can everything prosper.

Lu Ke thought this through his mind, and then, just like that, he hastily set the tone for how future generations would divide power.

After half an hour.

Luke looked out the window, and after the plane broke through the clouds, it finally came into view, with Washington International Airport in the distance.

soon.

As the landing gear deployed, the aircraft beneath it entered the landing procedure. After the tires touched the ground, the landing gear panels opened steadily, and the aircraft began to decelerate and taxi on the runway.

Seeing the plane steadily slow down was somewhat unexpected for Luke.

He had already prepared himself for the possibility of teleporting back.

result……

Such a good opportunity, and Zola didn't seize it?

Or did I misunderstand him?

He was just infected with Daniel Whitehead's virus by accident, which is why he did such a heinous thing as aiding and abetting evil.

As Luke thought to himself, he got up and, with a warm smile from the flight attendant, stepped off the plane. Upon reaching the door, he immediately saw Jack, who had been waiting for a long time, his face beaming with joy, coming to pick him up.

……

Chapter 414 I gave you a chance, but you failed

Jack, who came to pick up Luke, saw his boss walking out, looking excited and happy, waving his hands at him from afar.

Luke walked over.

Jack took the luggage from Luke's hands: "Boss, how was the flight?"

After handing the luggage to Jack, Luke put his hands back in his pockets, glanced at Jack, and smiled, "It's alright, no close calls."

He genuinely believed that Dr. Zola would sabotage him from high in the sky.

pity……

Zola didn't seem to seize the opportunity that he had deliberately given him.

soon.

After picking up Luke, the black Audi A8, driven by Jack, drove out of Washington International Airport and headed straight for Washington, D.C., the heart of the federal government.

"Boss, Alexander knows you're coming back today and has already booked a restaurant. Shall we go over there?"

"Go and tell him it's settled."

"Row."

Jack tapped a few times with his right hand to bring up the restaurant's navigation route, and then drove there following the navigation.

Lu Ke, sitting in the back seat, crossed his legs and flipped through several documents in his hands.

Jack, who was driving, glanced at Luke in the rearview mirror and said, "Boss, there's a bottle of bourbon I swiped from Stryker's office yesterday."

Luke looked up in the direction Jack had indicated and, sure enough, saw an unopened bottle of bourbon.

He reached for the bourbon and glanced at it.

"Hey, Thunder Bourbon, and it's even an aged one, not bad. You just let him take it like that?"

"of course."

Jack said happily, "I told him that the boss would definitely like it, so he let me bring it over."

Lu Ke nodded: "Not bad, good wine. We can have some with dinner later."

Jack nodded, looking perfectly natural: "Okay, boss."

After half an hour.

In a private restaurant with a view of the Capitol Building not far away.

As Luke led Jack through the door to the private room, they were immediately greeted by a beaming Alexander Pierce who stood up and embraced him.

"Welcome home."

"Thank you."

Luke hugged Alexander, and after they separated, he looked at Alexander and smiled, saying, "Have you lost weight recently?"

Upon hearing this, Alexander laughed and said, "Is that so?"

Lu Ke smiled and said, "Yes, it feels like I've lost about 21 grams."

Alexander was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter.

Lu Ke also laughed.

soon.

The three of them took their seats.

Jack looked at the Thunder Bourbon he had brought from the car, then at the Bourbon Alexander had brought on the table, and looked at his boss: "Boss, which bottle should we open?"

Luke pointed to the bottle in Jack's hand: "This one."

Jack nodded.

Luke then stopped looking at Jack, who was opening a bottle of wine beside him, and looked at Alexander instead: "Sasha, any news about Zola's cloning base?"

Alexander nodded: "We have news. It's confirmed to be in Texas, but we're still looking for the exact location."

Luke hummed in agreement: "This guy has been dragging my woman away for so long, I haven't seen Cipher for almost two months. I wonder what he's been up to in secret."

Alexander laughed and said, "If I remember correctly, Cipher was Dr. Zola's apprentice first, and then your woman, right?"

Lu Ke's expression was serious: "A woman follows her husband after marriage."

Say it.

Luke changed the subject, looking curiously at Alexander: "By the way, Sasha, didn't Lindsay come today?"

Upon hearing this, Alexander smiled wryly and said, "I didn't come. I stayed at home. As you know, the child is still young and would be a bit fussy if I brought him out. Lindsay also doesn't want the nanny to take care of him. But she knew you were coming today and told me to have a couple more drinks with you, and to make sure you don't leave until you're completely drunk."

Lu Ke laughed: "You won't leave until you're drunk, is that it? Then you'll probably be spending the night lying on the street."

Alexander laughed heartily, stood up, took the two bourbons that Jack had poured for him, and then handed one to Luke, before clinking glasses with him.

There was a ding.

The glasses clinked together, producing a crisp sound.

After Alexander sat down, he raised his glass and looked at Luke: "Cheers."

Lu Ke didn't speak, but brought the glass to his nose and smelled it.

Jack, standing to the side, watched this scene with a hint of unconscious tension on his face.

Even a hidden camera placed in the corner of the private room seemed to be watching this scene without blinking.

Dr. Zola was also watching Luke nervously as he held the wine glass to his nose.

To kill Lu Ke, conventional physical attacks, including extraordinary physical attacks, have a failure rate of over 90%.

and so……

We must resort to unconventional methods.

If physical attacks don't work, then we'll have to resort to chemical attacks.

Use poison!

According to Dr. Zola's big data search, a medical record was found showing that Luke went to the hospital for emergency treatment due to food poisoning at night.

Based on this medical report, Dr. Zola determined that using poison had a high probability of killing Luke.

but……

How to use poison is another matter entirely.

fortunately.

One of Luke's strengths that can be exploited is that he is almost completely unguarded around people he trusts.

Dr. Zola reviewed many surveillance videos related to Luke.

Although Luke would show some wariness when strangers offered him drinks in public, he would accept and drink them without any suspicion when Earl, Jack, or Debbie offered them.

This gave Dr. Zola an opportunity.

But for now.

Something seems to be wrong.

Did Luke discover something amiss?

its not right.

This isn't the bottle of poisoned wine.

Dr. Zola's server started running even faster, with the cooling fans humming loudly as they ran at full power.

However, just as he was about to focus on his calculations, Luke, who had been holding the wine glass to his nose, took it down again.

“Not bad,” Luke said with a smile, then turned to Jack and asked, “Does William have this kind of liquor in his office?”

Jack quickly snapped out of his daze.

"Yes, there are still several bottles left."

"Before I go home tomorrow, I'll go to his place and take all the wine. It's such good wine; it would be a waste if he drank it."

As Luke said this, he raised his glass and clinked it against Alexander's again, saying "Cheers!" Then, he and Alexander drank it all in one gulp.

at the same time.

Their meals were served.
