Chapter 33: The "Obedient and Sensible" Lynn Hall
"Go ahead and take it. As long as it's from the boss, you don't have to worry about the IRS or the Internal Affairs Department investigating you!"
Looking at the joyful Barbara, Alice affectionately put her arm around her shoulder and said, "As long as you follow the boss wholeheartedly, the boss will never treat us unfairly!"
"Remember, whether it's in life or work, the boss will cover for us. Even if we 'accidentally' mess something up, the boss can help us fix it!"
"This is also why we follow the boss with all our hearts!"
Hearing Alice say that, Barbara happily put the gold bars into her bag.
"That's right!"
Pinching Barbara's pretty face, Alice smiled and said, "After we go back, I'll take you to complete the onboarding procedures. When your network access is activated, you'll officially become a member of the Federal Bureau of Investigation!"
Hearing Alice's words, Barbara nodded.
Looking at Lynn Hall's back ahead, she felt that from this moment on, her life was full of hope and security!
"Tsk."
Looking at the way Barbara gazed at the boss, Alice clicked her tongue.
Then, without a sound, she quickly walked to Lynn Hall's side.
"Boss, Barbara is really beautiful, and she's full of youthful energy."
Looking at Alice, who was diligently opening the car door for him, Lynn Hall said, "What do you want to say?"
"Hehe, boss, can you hand Barbara over to me?"
Clinging to Lynn Hall's arm to prevent him from getting into the car, Alice said expectantly, "It's been a long time since such a pure and beautiful girl joined our team!"
"You already have three girlfriends, and now you're eyeing Barbara?"
"That's different, boss. I feel like Barbara's looks alone can top my three girlfriends."
"Get lost. I'm already a Deputy Director, it's time I had a secretary!"
Pushing Alice aside, Lynn got into the Chevrolet, then waved to Barbara and said, "Come here, ride in my car!"
Seeing Lynn call her, Barbara happily got into the passenger seat.
Watching the car drive away, Alice shook her head with some regret.
It seemed that perhaps within a week, Barbara would be under the boss's desk, mumbling!
At the same time, Queens.
After hanging up the phone, Mary Jane looked at Peter and Harry and said, "I've already called Gwen. She's in a great mood, so she won't break our appointment to visit the science exhibition this weekend!"
Hearing Mary Jane say that, Peter Parker and Harry finally relaxed.
When they first heard that Gwen had gone to the concert that was hit by a terrorist attack, Peter Parker and Harry were both very worried. Although they knew Gwen wasn't injured, they were afraid that this incident would cause some psychological trauma to Gwen.
So when they heard that Gwen was in a great mood, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh, will Lynn go with Gwen?"
Looking at Mary Jane, Harry Osborn asked.
"Probably not!"
Facing the expectant Harry, Mary Jane said, "I heard Gwen say that she'll go home with Aunt Helen tomorrow, so she probably won't be with Mr. Hall."
Hearing Mary Jane say that Lynn might not go, Harry immediately showed a hint of disappointment.
"Ever since Gwen's birthday party, you've always been mentioning Mr. Hall, Harry. You haven't really started idolizing Mr. Hall, have you?"
"Of course it's true, Lynn is so cool!"
Whenever Lynn Hall was mentioned, Harry's face lit up with excitement.
But soon, he said with some helplessness, "Unfortunately, my dad won't allow me to join the Federal Bureau of Investigation!"
Looking at his friend's disappointed expression, Peter Parker, who was beside him, patted his shoulder.
He also had a good impression of Lynn!
New York Federal Bureau of Investigation, James Duke's office.
"Duke, I don't think now is the time to tell him our true identities."
In the video call, Alexander Pierce put down the cigar in his hand and said, "Lynn Hall's character, methods, and abilities are beyond doubt, but he is still very young. I'm worried he might be misled by so-called justice."
"I'm very optimistic that he can take over your position in the future, so it's best we slowly 'guide' him on his future path."
Hearing Pierce say that, Duke leaned back in his chair and chuckled, "I think so too. Young people always need a lot of guidance."
"Power, beautiful women, money, status. After tasting these, I believe Lynn will make the right choice!"
"Oh, by the way, on the sixth of next month is the engagement party of the Deputy Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's daughter. His role is very important for me to become the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in two years."
"It's also a good opportunity to let Lynn experience what high society feels like!"
Hearing James Duke say that, Pierce nodded: "I'll arrange this matter. Oh, and S.H.I.E.L.D. has always wanted to recruit Lynn. You can let Lynn get in touch with them."
"I really want to know where Nick Fury spends all that money!"
As the two were talking, Duke noticed the inconspicuous button on the table turn red.
Then he said, "Let's leave it at that for now, the little guy has led the team back!"
"Okay!"
After hanging up the video call, Duke leaned back in his chair, quietly waiting for Lynn to knock on the door!
About ten minutes later.
"Try this, it's the most authentic Cuban cigar. It was brought back for me by an old friend from the Brotherhood when he returned from Cuba!"
Throwing a cigar to Lynn Hall, James Duke said with a smile.
Lynn Hall took the cigar, clipped it, lit it, and took a puff.
After the smoke swirled in his mouth and was slowly exhaled, Lynn smiled and said, "Perhaps it's because I don't smoke cigars often, so I always feel that the taste of cigars is pretty much the same."
"Haha..."
Raising his hand and nodding at Lynn with a smile, Duke said, "You have to slowly learn to appreciate cigars. It's like life; besides work, we also have to learn to enjoy ourselves!"
Hearing Duke say that, Lynn nodded, then placed the black card given to him by the Vampire on the table.
Seeing this, Duke looked at Lynn and asked with a smile, "Is there anything you want to know about this mission?"
"No!"
Looking at Duke, Lynn smiled and said, "This mission must have been very difficult for you, Director, to issue such an order, so I've already had someone write the mission report. Don't worry, no one else will know!"
Well, Lynn Hall's main point was that he was James Duke's loyal subordinate.
Don't ask what shouldn't be asked, and don't know what shouldn't be known.
Since he was so sensible, as the Director, shouldn't James Duke, as HYDRA, give him more "expression"?
Hearing Lynn say that, James Duke was a little surprised but nodded with great satisfaction.
He hadn't expected Lynn Hall to be so "sensible"!
Putting down the cigar in his hand, Duke pushed the black card back: "Since it's an apology from those Vampires, just accept it."
"Don't worry, you can use the money in it freely, and no one will ever investigate!"
