They come, the security.

Anyway, Lu doesn't need to rely on knowing the plot to make a living.

He, Lu Ke, owes his current status entirely to 99% hard work and 0.01% luck.

In a word.

Lu Ke is a man of hard skills and ability!

"Then I know you."

"But I've never seen you before."

"Because you've never met me, but I know your father."

"My father."

Anya Eisenhart's big eyes lit up: "Uncle, do you know my dad?"

Luke smiled and nodded: "Of course, otherwise how would I know your name?"

Kind and naive Anya believed Luke.

She turned her head to look into the depths of the forest: "Dad and Mom went into the mountains early this morning, and Uncle is waiting for us here..."

talking.

Anya turned her head back to look at the hot spring, but paused, her big eyes blinking as she looked at Luke who had suddenly disappeared without a trace: "Where is he?"

at this time.

A gentle female voice came from afar.

Her gentleness was tinged with a hint of anxiety.

"Anya!"

"Anya!"

"Mother."

Anya heard someone calling her and snapped out of her daze, quickly calling out, "Mom, I'm here."

soon.

The owner of the voice, a Polish woman who looked just as gentle as the voice, jogged out, took Anya's right hand, and said with a hint of reproach in her tone, "Anya, didn't I tell you not to run so fast by yourself?"

As they were talking, a handsome middle-aged man carrying a basket, who seemed to have gone to the forest to pick mushrooms after the rain, came out with a smile: "See? I told you Anya would be alright. The animals in the forest will protect her."

The woman turned her head and glared at her husband: "Anya is just popular with animals, she can't actually communicate with them."

The man chuckled.

Anya looked at the man, called out "Dad," and then threw herself into his arms. Afterward, looking at the empty hot spring, she thought of the strange thing that had just happened. She looked up and told her father about what had happened with the strange man who was soaking in the hot spring.

At first, the man just laughed it off.

After all, there are plenty of backpackers who come to this wild hot spring in this forest.

But when the man heard his daughter mention that the man could call her by name right away, the smile on his face gradually faded.

Especially when she heard her daughter mention that the man was there one second and then suddenly disappeared the next, a smile returned to her face.

But beneath the smile lay a hint of seriousness.

Luke had already returned to his rented car, changed his clothes, and driven away from the woods back to the hotel.

He focused his trip on Poland, not only because Sokovia and Poland could complement each other, but also because he met the witch and Quicksilver there.

Luke thought that since Sokovia had the witch and Quicksilver, there was a high chance that Poland also had Magneto.

as predicted.

He guessed correctly.

But Luke didn't think about greeting Magneto. After all, it was the same reason why Luke didn't step in when he saw Lorna talking to the witch and Quicksilver in Sokovia.

He did this simply to satisfy his curiosity, and it had nothing to do with anything else.

Now that your curiosity has been satisfied, there's nothing more to worry about.

So when Luke returned to the hotel and found Lorna and Rachel huddled together in the restaurant, waiting for breakfast and continuing to discuss what good attractions Poznan had to offer, he didn't tell them about the little incident that had just happened.

Because Poland was added as a destination by Luke after Sokovia, there wasn't much time allotted for it.

After spending only one day there, the three of them boarded a plane the next day, ending their trip and flying back to Los Santos.

On a Gulfstream private jet.

The two women, who were originally full of energy and seemed to never feel tired no matter how much they walked, immediately kicked Luke out of the airplane cabin after the plane took off, saying that they were tired from the journey and wanted to get a good night's sleep.

Lu Ke sat down on the sofa in the cabin with a helpless and speechless expression.

at the same time.

The news that Luke had begun teleporting back to the city was also immediately relayed to the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D.

"..."

Chapter 460 Shocking! Jack Exposed!

"Sir, Chief Luke Dane's plane has just confirmed its route and is expected to arrive in Los Santos at 5 p.m.

"Back in the city?"

"Yes."

"understood."

Hill, who was in his office, said something, then hung up the phone and leaned back in his chair.

Because of the reasons Luke clearly stated yesterday, Hill decisively withdrew the SHIELD agents and satellites that were tracking him.

That's the rule.

If the other party doesn't tell you, you can pretend they don't know. But if they do tell you and you continue, then things will fall apart.

And just as Luke said on the phone, Poland was the last stop, and he has indeed been teleported back to the city.

but……

Maria Hill felt something was off.

evidence?

She didn't.

It's a woman's unique sixth sense.

Of course.

This isn't entirely a woman's sixth sense.

With that thought in mind, Hill picked up her phone, opened her social media app, and found Rachel and Lorna's social circles.

As before, half an hour ago, a new round of selfies, carefully edited by the two women, was uploaded.

Hill looked through the pictures one by one.

These photos are almost identical to the previous ones: landscape photos, photos featuring local features, and selfies.

But something just feels off.

correct.

Why are there no photos of hot springs?

Hill suddenly raised an eyebrow.

Just as she subconsciously had a flash of inspiration, recalling the scene of Lu Ke going to the hot springs alone yesterday, and felt as if she had grasped some key point, she was about to get up when she overturned the idea that had just arisen.

Perhaps Lorna and Rachel don't like soaking in hot springs.

It's also possible that Luke wanted to talk to her, so he secretly avoided the two women. Just like before, Luke would occasionally leave the two women during his trip to call his lover who was far away in Seoul, Hive, or Texas.

Wait a moment.

Lover? Me?

What the hell is he thinking?

Hill blinked, gave a wry smile, shook his head, turned off his phone, and tossed it back onto the table.

It seems this guy really was just taking his fiancée and sister on a trip.

Hill sighed.

She wasn't sighing because she hadn't caught Lu Ke red-handed, but because she had wasted all that manpower and resources just to verify a conjecture that might not even exist.

The situation is difficult.

Because Nick Fury was suspected of embezzling public funds during his tenure, the five major councils have been very concerned about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s financial situation since she took over.

Hill thought for a moment, opened his notebook, opened a document, and began typing. He planned to write a report for record-keeping, so that he would have an explanation if the council of the five superpowers inquired about this expense.

Anyway, she doesn't have many places to spend money. Over the years, with the overtime pay from working 365 days a year and 300 days a year, plus money-making funds and well-managed financial products, Hill has no interest in the hundreds of millions of dollars that A.E.L.D. often has.

Not at all.

Because her total assets already exceed 100 million.

but……

Just as Hill opened the document and started typing away, there was a knock on the office door.

"Enter."

"commander."

A female agent pushed open the door and walked in. She was not old, around thirty years old, with blonde hair and a good complexion, but she had an undeniable fierce temperament.

"Rita."

Hill recognized the woman as the agent entered, temporarily closed his notebook, and smiled, saying, "Back from vacation?"

The female agent is a long-time employee of Sanfei Studios. Before Hill took over, Rita worked as her assistant for a period of time.
