Sophie's heart trembled, and she turned to look at the leader of the investigation team.

She and the leader of the investigation team are both from the FBI and have worked together for almost three years, so they know each other very well.

This team leader named Gerald belongs to the top level of the FBI and has extremely wide connections within the Eagle Country government.

The most important thing is to be upright and never do anything for personal gain or bend the law.

He has always been Sophie's idol.

But what does he mean?

Some internal cases she had come across before flashed through her mind, mainly covering crimes and various abuses of power.

As an agent, her intuition made her feel that everything the team leader did seemed to be trying to cover up something.

Cover up the clue she found?

Seeing Sophie's confused look, Gerald smiled slightly and said:

"The case has been closed. Those scum have been punished as they deserve. The entire Central and South America are now much safer than before. Domestic arms dealers also took the opportunity to sell a lot of weapons to the government forces of various countries to replace their equipment.

, the one in the White Palace also got the approval rate he wanted, and now this is the best result, we don’t need to make extra trouble.”

"However, the people have the right to know the truth, and we should defend their right to know!" Sophie said with a frown.

Although she didn't want to admit it, the scene she was most worried about happened.

The boss she admired, Gerald, had selfish motives and wanted to hinder the investigation of the truth.

Gerald took a deep look at Sophie, and the relieved smile stopped on his face. He seemed very satisfied with Sophie's reaction, but he still said:

"What truth? What right to know? Let them know that the nuclear bomb came from an organization in the Middle East, and that everything was not a fight between some independence cartel, but someone else? The anti-drug operation carried out by the Eagle Country government in conjunction with the governments of American countries

The real mastermind behind the scenes has not been found at all? Let the already stable public opinion in various countries surge again, let those ignorant mobs march on the streets, and give justice to the monopoly? Let these criminal groups that have just been extinguished resurrect again? "

Sophie's lips moved twice, and although she understood that what Gerald said was true, she still said:

"But……"

Gerald sighed and said:

"But what? Do you believe it or not, if the final investigation results show that the nuclear bomb was not made by the Medellin Group and Vera Gold at all, and that we have been looking for the wrong target, then the domestic opposition parties will immediately criticize the previous strategy, saying

Maybe there will be huge compensation for those lone offenders, it only takes one night..."

Gerald stretched out a finger and said decisively:

"It only takes one night, and those new criminal groups will appear immediately, and they will have more advanced weapons and more cruel methods than before, and they will also occupy the fucking moral high ground and package themselves as victims.

Or! By that time, countless women will be raped while going out at night, countless children will lose their parents, and strings of skinned and tortured corpses will be hung under the viaducts in Mexico every night. Do you think it will be too much for them?

,isn’t the truth important?”

Then he lowered his voice again, looked directly at Sophie and said:

"And all this is just because you moved the mouse and submitted a clue."

"I..." Sophie naturally understood that although the facts were cruel, what Gerald said was true, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Jerad patted her shoulder and said:

"No one cares about the truth except you. What Eagle Country needs is a reason to intervene directly. The president needs a way to increase his approval rating. The poor people here need safe streets... Now, are you still obsessed with the truth?

"

Sophie was completely shaken.

Not shaken by the truth, but shaken by the truth.

This is how the world has always worked.

Seeing that Sophie's eyes were a little confused, Gerald smiled slightly, leaned over and took Sophie's hand away from the mouse, then found the few clues just now and said:

"Since this conflicts with your principles, then let me be the bad guy."

As he said this, he completely formatted all these clues without leaving any traces.

After doing all this, seeing that Sophie was a little lost, Gerald thought for a moment, patted Sophie on the shoulder, and motioned her to come to his office.

Sophie got up and followed Gerald into his office.

Signaling Sophie to sit down, Gerald looked up at the detective in front of him who was full of justice and asked:

"Sophie, compared to the entire human civilization, the Medellin nuclear bomb incident in Colombia is just a small wave, not even a wave, just a speck of dust... You are very capable.

He is strong and has a great love for human civilization as a whole, which I admire very much..."

Hearing Gerald's praise, Sophie raised her head and was about to show her modesty when she saw Gerald raised his hand to stop her and continued:

"Wait a moment, let me report something first."

Then he picked up the phone, clicked on one of the icons, and said in a deep voice:

"The target has given up exploration. Threat event x0347 has been resolved. The people involved in the event have certain potential and apply for qualification verification by the Salvation Army."

Sophie's eyes showed more confusion.

On the screen of Gerald's mobile phone, there was a pattern of a blood-red eyeball, and the words the other party just said were simply incomprehensible, but they seemed to have been heard somewhere.

report?

Gerald is already the leader of the joint investigation team. Although he sounds like a team leader, he has great authority and is directly responsible to the Secretary-General of the United Nations and the person in the White Palace.

The only people who could allow him to report the situation were the two most powerful people in the world.

Is he just reporting the situation directly on his mobile phone?

Then Gerald raised his head and took a deep look at her, and asked in a solemn tone:

"Sophie, have you ever heard of the Salvation Army?"

Sophie was stunned. She had heard of this name before. It was a rumor on the Internet that there was a mysterious organization called the Salvation Army. Under the leadership of a savior, it silently guarded the world in secret.

It's just that she always thought that this was just a story made up by a third-rate tabloid, and she didn't believe that such a mysterious organization existed at all.

After all, reality is not.

But what does Gerald’s words mean?

At this moment, Gerald’s phone vibrated again, and a message appeared:

The personal information verification is completed and the qualification verification is passed.

The next moment, Sophie's phone also vibrated.

She immediately took it out and saw a blood-red eye icon filling the entire screen.

There was a sentence on the screen. Sophie read this sentence in a trembling voice. Gerald in front of her also smiled in unison and said:
Chapter completed!
