The legendary life of a manga

Chapter 196 Offset from the beginning
After Rachel just said this, she didn't say any more.

after all……

Rachel didn't want to say much about that scumbag ex-husband, and, most importantly, Ray was dead.

Yes.

The local police reported death by drowning.

The exact time of death is not clear, but within a month after Lake and Rachel got married, the local police found Lei's body in a pond.

After testing, it was found that Lei had excessive alcohol in his body and water in his lungs. It was confirmed that he died of drowning. The police made a brief investigation and then announced that the case was closed.

This kind of case where the cause of death can be judged at a glance is really not worth wasting police force.

In short, Ray is not the point, the point is whether Dominic Toledo is back to his old business, just doing some sneaky business, that is the point.

When passing by, Rachel had a very ugly expression and gritted her teeth. Lake had no doubt that if Dominic Toledo said so, Rachel would definitely slap him.

After about half an hour.

Lake slowly parked the vehicle on the opposite side of the road with 【Toledo Snack Coffee Shop】.

Turn off the fire.

get off.

Lake glanced at a brown truck parked in front, and a red pickup truck, then closed the door, pulled Josie who got off from the back, and followed Rachel who was already walking in front.

There is already a customer drinking coffee and reading newspapers under the umbrella outside the small shop.

There was also a man in a black T-shirt with short blonde curly hair sitting inside.

"Mia!"

"...Rachel?"

Mia, who was at the counter, heard the voice, looked at the door, and when she saw Rachel, her face suddenly showed joy, she knocked on the glass door over there, and shouted at a big bald head with her back turned inside, Then he walked out of the counter and hugged Rachel at the door.

Brian O'Connor, who was tasting a tuna sandwich at the bar that almost no one would order, also turned his curious eyes on Rachel who was hugging Mia.

then.

His eyes turned directly to a man with a bald head and a tough look who came out from inside.

This is the primary goal of federal undercover agent Brian O'Connor.

After Dominic came out, he also hugged Rachel.

Rachel looked at Lake, who followed in, and then made eye contact with Rachel.

"Lake."

"Mia."

"Dominic."

"My boyfriend."

"Hello."

"Hello."

Lake shook hands with Mia, and like everyone else, looked at the layout and decoration of the store and said to Mia: "It's a very chic little store, with some Italian style inside."

Mia said thank you.

Lake then shook hands with Dominic.

Hands touch.

Dominic felt the trace of Lake's palm calmly, and then let go.

after awhile.

Josie is also introduced to Mia and Dominic.

Mia then took Josie to the drink cabinet over there and asked Josie to choose her favorite drink.

Rachel pointed directly at Dominic and pointed to the lounge inside: "I have something to ask you, come in."

Dominic followed.

Lake didn't go.

He pulled out a high stool and sat on it.

"So……"

Mia over there led Josie into the counter directly. Josie drank the drink in her hand, and Mia asked Lake what he was drinking with great interest. When he was getting the bourbon, he asked curiously. Said: "Lake, are you also a reporter?"

Lake shook his head: "No."

Mia handed a glass of bourbon to Lake, looked at Lake who was wearing a suit but not sweating at all, and thought for a while: "Wall Street?"

Lake laughed and said, "Do I look like I'm from Wall Street?"

Mia frowned, thought for a while, and her eyes lit up: "Are you from Washington?"

Lake shook his head again, smiled, took out his ID from his pocket, and handed it to Mia.

Mia accepts.

turn on.

Opening his mouth slightly, he looked up at Lake: "Homeland Security?"

Bang.

Just as Lake was about to nod, the customer next to him who had just said nothing just dropped the coffee cup in his hand.

Mia hurriedly returned the ID to Lake, took a towel and handed it to Brian who got up over there.

Brian took it, said sorry, and wiped the place where the coffee got on with a towel.

back room.

After Rachel and Dominic went in, they went straight to the point: "Are you back to your old business?"

Dominic was a little confused: "What, how is it possible."

Rachel's face was serious: "Don't lie to me."

Dominique laughs: "I haven't been in that business for years."

talking.

Dominic looked at Rachel curiously: "Where did you hear that?"

"Lake said, I heard several of his colleagues talk about you."

"he?"

Dominic glanced through the glass and glanced at Lake: "What did your boyfriend say?"

Rachel said directly: "Lake is a senior director of the Department of Homeland Security. Do you think I believe what he said, or I believe what you say. You can make me believe you. Now, tell me in front of me, You didn't go back to your old business."

Dominique asked, "Domestic Homeland Security, is it true or not?"

and many more.

If I steal a car or grab something, how can I have anything to do with homeland security?

There is no reason.

Rachel didn't intend to let Dominic change the subject, and said again, "Tell me, you didn't go back to your old business."

Dominique looks at Rachel: "I don't."

Rachel looked at Dominic blankly, stared deeply at Dominic who was staring at her, and nodded for a while, "You better not, because this time, don't expect me to help you."

Done.

Rachel turned around and opened the door and walked out.

Dominic was brainstorming why he was being targeted by the Homeland Security Bureau.

By the time Rachel came out, the coffee-stained guest, Brian O'Connor, had left.

The boss of the New York State Department of Homeland Security suddenly entered the game. He needs to report this matter to his chief immediately.

Brian O'Connor just joined the FBI. Like all FBI agents, if he wants to become an official agent, he must have an undercover operation. iron rules.

Moreover, the federal agents who have just joined still have a very weak agent atmosphere. It is very suitable to conduct undercover operations at this time, so this has become a tradition.

The federal agent in charge of Brian O'Connor was Bill Kins, an African-American federal man.

After Bill Kings heard Bryan's report, he immediately asked Brian to pause first, and then, after hanging up the phone, contacted his superior to confirm the news.

After all, although Bill Kings' level can lead a federal operation, it is still a bit too low level to confirm a senior director of the Department of Homeland Security.

after awhile.

The director of Bill Kings confirmed that the special plane of the New York State Department of Homeland Security was indeed parked in the hangar of Los Angeles International Airport.

Brian was a little confused: "Then... what should we do now?"

Bill Kings asked back: "What to do?"

Bryan pointed to a black-car race in Los Angeles tonight, which might be his best chance to get close to Dominique, and said: "Is the operation still going on?"

Bill Kings thought for a while and said, "Go on."

This is a federal case, not a Department of Homeland Security case. If the boss of the Department of Homeland Security intervenes, he has a 50.00% chance of being promoted and raising his salary.

Another 50.00%?
Direct high-level games, and then he was beaten to the end.

Bill Kings thought he could give it a go.

At the very least, there is still a 50.00% chance that he can be transformed directly from a bicycle into a motorcycle and become a senior agent.

night time.

Lake and Rachel returned to the hotel.

Mia also came here because of Rachel's invitation.

Lake originally wanted to take this opportunity to greet the last target, but Rachel didn't plan to give Lake time to go out.

Rachel directly sat Mia on the sofa, and then asked Mia the same topic: "Did Don go back to his old job?"

The first two characters of Dominique are pronounced like Tang, so Tang is the abbreviation of Dominique's nickname.

Just like Chuck and Charlie are Richard's nicknames.

Mia was obviously also confused by Rachel's question: "What?"

Rachel repeated the question, and then said to Mia, "Mia, you have been good since you were a child, so, I believe you, tell me that Don is not going back to his old business."

Mia blinked her eyes, and then said suspiciously: "I don't quite understand, why do you think so."

Rachel told Mia directly, and Lake told him how he knew about Donimic.

Lake, who was not far away with Josie, was also a little confused.

Good guy.

Do I count that, even though I didn't get involved in the plot, I'm going to skew the plot all of a sudden?

Lake thought so, but there was not much ups and downs about Rachel's words, he didn't intend to get involved in this so-called Fast and Furious, he was on vacation, and he came to find his car by the way.

And it's still that sentence.

With Lake's current size, getting involved in Hell's Kitchen is a bit out of class, let alone such a small matter.

Mia immediately looked at Lake.

Lake shrugged and didn't speak. This was Rachel's family business, and he wouldn't get involved until Rachel asked him to.

Mia had seen Lake's ID, pursed her lips, and fell silent.

Ok.

Seeing this, Rachel raised her eyebrows, then took a deep breath, and said with a kind of hatred for her brother: "He really went back to his old job, hasn't the three-year prison made him understand?"

Mia looked up quickly: "That's not the case."

Rachel was expressionless, and interrupted directly: "What is that, because of interest, because of hobbies?"

Mia opened her mouth.

at this time.

The door was knocked.

"Mr. Edwin, we are from the FBI."
