American comic book: I, with my abundant martial virtue, love to do good to others.

Federal Building.

When he saw Lynn return with Alice Shawn and the others, Miller Field, who was about to go out on a field mission, stepped forward and stopped him.

"What's up?"

"Can we talk?"

Upon hearing Miller Field say he wanted to talk, Lynn Hall suddenly laughed and said, "What's wrong? Is your investigation into that dentist case stalled, and you want my help?"

With that, Lynn gestured for Sean and Alice to leave first.

He then took a cup of coffee and went to the window, saying, "So, what do you want to talk about?"

"The deputy director has been in the hospital for half a year, and everyone knows he doesn't have long to live."

Reaching the window, Miller Field looked at Lynn and said, "You're D3 now, but you haven't become the deputy director. It seems that after Richie Hood takes on the role of advisor next year, you'll definitely be taking over as the head of the intelligence agency, right?"

Hearing Miller say that, Lynn Hall smiled: "Don't forget, Jessica, the head of the Internal Affairs Department, is still keeping an eye on me!"

"So you have a chance to compete with me..."

"Come on, Lynn, no one who's risen from a regular agent to this level is an idiot!"

Miller Field gave a self-deprecating laugh, took a sip of coffee, and said, "I do want to be the head of the Secret Service."

"And after hearing that Richie Hood would be reassigned to a sinecure next year, I even sent some 'messages' to the Ministry of the Interior."

"Unfortunately, both the director and Rich Hood value you more, and this mission is the best example of that."

"Although I'm a little resentful, I'm not stupid. The director values ​​you so much, so even if the Internal Affairs Department keeps a close eye on you, it won't do any good!"

At this point, Miller stared at Lynn and said, "Lynn, if I help you get rid of the other two assistant managers, then after you become a manager..."

"Am I qualified to be the deputy manager?"

Listening to Miller Field's seemingly surrender-like words, Lynn wasn't sure if the guy was telling the truth or not.

I checked his level of affection for me by opening the system.

I discovered that his favorability towards me increased from -1 to 2!

"I cannot make any promises."

Miller Field frowned upon hearing Lynn's words.

Just as he was about to say something, he heard Lynn continue, "But Miller, your level really should be raised. You've been D2 for almost three years now."

"Oh, by the way, I heard those office workers in our department are up to no good again? Miller, when do you think those moles who're always watching us field agents and those hyenas who're auditing us will finally stop?"

Miller Field's eyes lit up when he heard Lynn Hall say that.

"Yes, those moles in the internal affairs department really need a overhaul. They have no idea how dangerous we agents face every time we go on field missions."

Seeing that Miller understood what she said, her favorability rating increased from 2 to 4.

Lynn Hall patted him on the shoulder and said, "I need to go report this mission to the chief."

"This matter has caused quite a stir online, and we must give the public a satisfactory answer!"

After saying that, Lynn Hall prepared to leave.

"Lynn, the other two assistant supervisors are not simple either. One's uncle works in the Department of Justice, and the other's family has produced several members of parliament."

"It's really hard for people like us without connections or background to get promoted!"

Hearing Miller Field's reminder, Lynn Hall smiled and then turned to leave.

Miller's meaning was clear: although the two guys vying for the managerial position had extraordinary backgrounds, he had a way to deal with them.

It's likely that he racked his brains but couldn't find any fault with himself, and this mission was also a way for him to ascertain Duke's attitude towards him.

That's why they were so pragmatic and approached me.

Even if Miller Field didn't contact him, Lynn Hall didn't care about the other two guys.

After all, you can't become a manager without joining the Brotherhood of Hydra, and even if you do join the Brotherhood of Hydra, you still can't become a manager.

Then wouldn't I have joined for nothing?

However, what if Duke does become the director of the FBI two years later and takes over the New York FBI himself?

So each department definitely needs its own people.

Therefore, in the next two years, I can use my own people to slowly "infiltrate" various departments!

Inside James Duke's office.

Every time Lynn came to Duke, he could get a genuine Cuban cigar.

Although Lynn didn't like this kind of thing, as the chief's most trusted henchman, he had to keep up with him, right?

He was still waiting for him to personally recruit him into Hydra, promising him "high-ranking positions and generous salaries"!

So at this moment, Lynn was leisurely blowing smoke rings, waiting for the director to review the mission report.

In the mission report, Lynn recorded everything in detail except for the matters concerning Mephisto and Victor Doom.

Of course, Lynn also thoughtfully created "evidence" of the bear's crimes.

A moment later.

Putting down the mission report, James Duke looked at Lynn with a smile and said, "Although this incident was supernatural, you handled it very well."

"I never imagined that an entire town would lose its life because of the Russians' biological weapons."

"Not only that, they even resorted to terrorist attacks like suicide bombings to destroy evidence."

"I believe that once the public learns the truth, they will strongly condemn the Russian bear!"

Hearing the chief say this, what else could Lynn Hall say besides "the chief is wise"?

He waved his hand with a smile, stopping Lynn from flattering him.

James Duke looked at Lynn and said, "But, in the report, was that stone golem really made so powerful by sacrificing other people's souls?"

In response to the director's question, Lynn nodded and said, "Director, I consulted that professor, and this is his explanation."

"However, the professor also said that even if I didn't kill him with a bomb, he wouldn't live much longer."

"Because demons always enjoy toying with mortals, once that pleasure is gone, the sacrificer will also fall into hell!"

Hearing Lynn's words, James Duke nodded: "So, what people fear most is losing themselves in the pursuit of unknown power!"

"By the way, Jessica, the head of the Internal Affairs Department, is getting engaged on the 6th of next month. Did you receive the invitation?"

"I received the notice from the bureau chief. Although she always seems to dislike me, we are, after all, university graduates, and she doesn't lack the proper etiquette!"

"That's good!"

Tapping the cigar ash from his hand, James Duke chuckled, "The fraternity should get together while Jessica's engagement is taking place."

"Many members of the fraternity would like to get to know you, the newest member."
