The legendary life of a manga

Chapter 191 The car I just bought was stolen? (Third update, please book in full!!!)
soon.

Lake understood what happened, after all, Lake had experienced this kind of thing.

Of course.

Lake didn't experience it personally, but because of Betty. At that time, Lake had just returned from the army for vacation. It happened that Ross and Karen had gone to the world of two at night. No, Betty suddenly cried out.

then……

Without changing his expression, Lake ran to the pharmacy in the small town and brought back bread of various sizes, large and small.

Thank goodness.

At that time, Lake thought he was going to teach Betty how to use it. Fortunately, the owner of the pharmacy at the time called Karen, who came back in time to replace Lake.

menarche.

As we all know, menarche is a sign of a girl's maturity.

and so……

Is Skye ready?

Snapped!
Lake came back to his senses, slapped himself to dispel the idea of ​​a ghost father, took a sip of the bourbon in front of him, closed his eyes, and silently recited ABCDEFG...

It's a horrible thought.

It's as if Lake has never been interested in Betty, are you crazy? They raised you like a son, but you are good enough to steal someone else's daughter.

Does this sound like a word?

Although many people think that Lake has no bottom line, but, Lake can swear, he still has some bottom line that belongs to him.

after awhile.

After the Cassel family left, Skye, who changed into a new set of clothes, came down from the stairs blankly, and greeted Lake who was sitting at the bar.

Lake pointed to the pizza he just bought: "It's just right, it just arrived."

Skye sat down.

Lake would not ask this matter so blindly. Even, as usual, Lake clapped his hands and went back to the study after finishing his meal with bourbon.

Wait until it's time to rest.

Skye knocked on the door of the study, and said to Lake who was sitting there looking at the computer: "Thank you, Lake."

Lake looked up: "I'm tired of logging."

Skye blinked.

Lake laughed and said, "When you go to foreign language class, you can ask your teacher about homonyms."

Skye nodded half-understanding.

Ten days later!
As usual, Skye took the bus to Midtown High School with Alexis and continued to swim in the ocean of knowledge.

Lake was driving to go to work in the National Land Building in New York.

but……

Lake stood on the side of the road, telling the newly promoted deputy director David that he might be going later, then hung up the phone, looking sadly at the burning and black smoke of the car not far away.

Is it finally time for the car that has been traveling all over the country with Lake since he arrived in New York?
The people from the repair shop came quickly.

After the repairman's inspection, Lake's guess was confirmed. At the same time, he was a little surprised: "This car has only been reimbursed until now. I have maintained it for so many years. According to my estimation, this car should have actually been scrapped two or three years ago."

Lake sighed: "Is there any chance of being rescued?"

The repairman said: "It is possible, but it is not cost-effective."

Lake asked, "How much?"

The repairman gave the repair fee: "Ten thousand dollars."

"……How many?"

"The car was burned, sir."

"..."

Lake thought about it, and in the end, after thinking about it, he decided not to renew the old man's life, so he paid the towing fee directly, and then chose to take a taxi and leave without looking back.

What a joke.

For the maintenance fee of [-] US dollars, if he adds some money, he can directly buy a better Porsche Cayenne.

In fact Lake did the same.

two hours later.

Lake took the brand new keys from the sales manager Job Lewis in front of him, opened the latest white Porsche Cayenne in front of him, and drove the new car directly to the Land Building in New York State.

A new car is a new car.

Although Lake spent nearly [-] dollars this time, it was worth the money. My old car used to beep everywhere except the stereo, and although it was very controllable to drive, it was frankly uncomfortable. .

This time, if the old car only cost about [-] dollars, Lake might salvage it, but [-] dollars is unnecessary, after all, Lake only spent a few hundred dollars when he bought it back. It's just a knife.

The car is just a means of transportation, Lake has always thought so, so, despite the constant problems with the previous car, Lake still chooses to make do with it.

Go back to your office.

"Tiffany."

"Sir."

Lake handed the key and some information about buying a new car to his assistant: "Help me drive to the vehicle management office for a record, and let them make a new one of my original license plate by the way."

A new car definitely needs a new number plate, but Lake likes his old number plate.

LKNB!

Lake is awesome!
This is a license plate customized by Lake himself. Although it seems meaningless to many people, in Lake's view, it is full of meaning.

Tiffany nodded, took the keys and documents, and walked towards the elevator entrance.

Lake found David, drinking coffee and chatting.

David lamented Lake's promotion speed, but he didn't feel jealous, after all, his promotion speed was not bad, and David also thanked Lake.

Lake waved his hand: "I hope we can cooperate happily in the future."

indeed.

Minister Kelly definitely promoted David in consideration of the experience of Lake and David as partners. The most important point is that although Lake is very capable in handling cases, most of the time he is a jerk, and David It's different, David's work attitude is very obvious, no matter in the previous unit or in the action group, he is capable.

Lake then said to David, "I'm on vacation tomorrow, and I'm going to Los Angeles."

David nodded: "Okay."

Lake said: "It should be about a month, I will go back quickly, and then you can take a vacation."

David smiled and said: "For me, the most painful thing is to take a vacation. If there is any, it is a long vacation."

Lake laughed loudly: "Then you must never say this to your wife."

David waved.

at this time.

Tiffany knocked on the door and walked in with a weird expression.

Lake raised his eyebrows, thinking that Tiffany had already done it, and it was clear that less than 10 minutes had passed: "So fast?"

Tiffany looked at Lake with a strange expression: "Sir, I didn't find your car."

Lake said: "It's parked in the parking space next to our building with the national flag, obviously, it's white."

There is no reason.

Lake added: "White, Porsche Cayenne, SUV, new."

Tiffany was a little confused: "Yes, I went around the parking lot, and there really isn't one."

Lake: "..."

10 minute later.

Lake, who was standing in the parking lot, felt like he was about to explode.

Good guy.

The reason why Lake chose to buy the second-hand car at that time was that there were many car thieves in New York, so buying an old car with many years of history would not be a concern.

But he never expected that he would be tricked.

and……

He just bought that car, insurance or something, and he hasn't had time to buy it yet.

are you crazy.

There was a big crowd, the world was open, in broad daylight, and it was at the door of his old lair. He had just bought a new car less than half an hour before he disappeared like this?

Kind of!

Lake took a deep breath, looked at Tiffany who ran over from not far away, and said, "What do you say in the monitoring room?"

Tiffany said: "Several surveillance cameras in the parking lot are upgrading their software systems this morning."

"What do you mean?"

"The entrance and exit monitoring on both sides of the parking lot was turned off."

"..."

Tiffany looked at Lake with anger written all over his face: "Sir, do you want to contact the New York Department of Transportation?"

Lake said without thinking: "The car of the dignified senior director of the Department of Homeland Security was stolen in front of his house. Do you think it is appropriate to tell the New York Department of Transportation?"

talking.

After a pause, Lake said to Tiffany: "Directly take over the system of the New York Transportation Department, and when asked, he said that he was chasing a suspicious car."

Lake had been in the New York Police Department anyway, and if the traffic department staff found out that his car had been stolen, within 5 minutes, George, Beckett, and Joe would probably call.

And Lake can guarantee that it is definitely not the kind of phone call that he cares about.

As Lake had just told his assistant, Tiffany, that the car of a dignified NSA senior executive had been stolen in the parking lot of his Homeland Building, there was no doubt that this was hot news.

Ma De, I'd like to see that guy eat a bear's heart and a leopard's gall.

steal my car?

Fake!

soon.

Homeland Warfare Center.

The New York Department of Transportation has obtained all the surveillance images around the National Land Building. During the period, the Department of Transportation sent an inquiry, and the Department of Homeland Security informed the Department of Transportation with the reason that Lake had just thought up.

after awhile.

A Homeland agent points to a monitor near the road to the left of the Homeland Building parking lot.

A white Porsche Cayenne without any logo, even with a new car protective film on the roof, appeared on the surveillance screen and disappeared with a whoosh.

"Here, check out the surveillance footage on 67th Street."

"Turn onto 66th Street."

"not found."

"There is a side road above 66th Street that goes up to 57th Street."

"Found it. Take 57th Street and go to 47th Street."

"No, the surveillance on 47th Street is down."

"Then."

With a gloomy face, Lake sat on the sofa, looking at the new car he had just purchased an hour before him who was being followed.

It's almost a race against time.

If it is said that in New York, the golden time for child kidnapping occurs, then the golden time for destroying vehicle theft is only a short two hours.

reason?

After more than two hours, it is possible that this car has left New York. As for where it went, it may be anywhere in the world, just like many black cars from all over the world flow into New York every year.

And even in New York.

Those skilled car thieves will swear on their reputations, two hours have passed, even if you are standing in front of your car, you will no longer recognize it.
