The Twelve Heavenly Stars were crippled in Hua Xia. This blow was too big for Douglas. Ever since he took over the CIA, the Twelve Heavenly Stars were the most important to nurture. It could be said that the Twelve Heavenly Stars were half of his combat power. Moreover, they were the best of the best. The feeling of losing an army and losing a general was definitely very uncomfortable.
In the office of the CIA, Douglas fiercely pushed all the documents on the table to the ground!
He picked up the computer and smashed it on the floor! The electronic parts were smashed and scattered all over the floor. In the end, he still could not vent his anger and directly overturned the entire office table! The loud crash shook the entire building of the CIA.
No one dared to ask about the situation. Ever since Douglas took over the position of the highest leader of the CIA, no one had seen him so angry. The people of the CIA had always succeeded in everything they did. Even if there were more setbacks in the middle, they would still be able to get the results they wanted.
But this time, Douglas had always felt that the plan was perfect. The Twelve Heavenly Stars kept sending back good news! The last report to him even said that they had captured a hostage that was especially important to Yan Long and Xu Yun! As long as they had this hostage, they would not have to worry about not being able to exchange for Matthew!
For this, Douglas even promised Peter that he could sacrifice Ellie! Ellie was his goddaughter. He had already made such a sacrifice, but the final result was still like this …
This was the thing that Douglas could not accept the most! In his eyes, he could pay the price, pay any price! But the price must be paid in return! There must be a return! Just like a businessman, if there was an investment, there must be a return. An investment without a return was not called an investment, it was called squandering.
Douglas's decision to let the Twelve Heavenly Stars go to Hua Xia was obviously not a successful investment case. It was a classic example of squandering. This squandering was quite serious. He had lost more than half of it in one go.
After all, Douglas also had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders! His most capable twelve agents were crippled. What could he use to solve the current predicament he was facing now?
The higher-ups only gave him one order, and that was to bring Kevin Mathew back alive! There was no reason why he couldn't complete this task. No matter what support he needed, the country would give it to him without hesitation. What he needed to do was to complete the tasks given to him by the country.
Bam, bam, bam … The sound of his fingers knocking against the door was really ear-piercing to Douglas at this moment!
Fortunately, someone finally knocked on Douglas's office door. Douglas took a deep breath. If no one knocked on his office door, he really didn't know how long his crazy venting would continue. The huge pressure made it hard for him to breathe. He looked down at the messy floor, and then at the office door. After a long silence, he slowly said, "Come in."
The door was pushed open, and a blonde woman in a milky white trench coat appeared in Douglas's vision. Douglas felt as if he had been reborn. His eyes widened instantly as he stared at the woman who had just walked in, and he gasped in shock!
"Why is it you!" Douglas couldn't believe his eyes. She actually came! Could it be that the higher-ups arranged for her to help him complete Kevin Mathew's mission? If that was the case, it would be great. This was probably the person who could increase Douglas's chances of completing the mission the most! He really didn't expect that she would come forward to help him.
No, wait a minute! Douglas kept his head clear. She was no longer a member of the CIA. How could she be here to help the CIA?
She was a member of the FBI! Even if she participated in this mission, it was definitely not to help him. She was adding insult to injury and provoking him. She wanted to prove that her FBI was more powerful than his CIA!
"Douglas, it seems that your emotions have been a little unstable recently." The woman in the trench coat smiled slightly. "If there's anything that makes you unhappy, you can tell me. Maybe I can help you resolve it. We're all friends. There's no need to carry everything on your shoulders. Am I right? "
Douglas moved his gaze away from the woman in the trench coat as quickly as possible. This woman seemed to have some kind of magic. If he didn't avoid her gaze in time, his soul would be easily taken away!
This was not a joke. Not many people could withstand the charm in her eyes. Tang Sanzang didn't meet her on his journey to the west. If he had met her, he would have probably given birth to a nest of little monks.
"This is the CIA. Did you come to the wrong place?" Douglas said, "People from the FBI don't have the habit of visiting the CIA, right?"
"That is to say, you don't welcome me." The blonde woman in the trench coat pretended to be sad and flipped her hair. "If I knew this, I would have called and invited you to my office. At least I would have made you a cup of coffee. I wouldn't have let you stand in an office that's like a 'garbage dump' with no place to sit."
Describing Douglas's room as a garbage dump was the most apt description. Douglas had already thrown everything that could be thrown onto the ground and smashed everything that could be smashed into smithereens. Other than a sofa in the corner of the room that could be barely sat on, there was really no place to stand.
"I like to work in a garbage dump. The people in the CIA are all sloppy." Douglas said angrily, "Why did you come here to find me? If you have something to say, just say it directly."
The blonde woman in the trench coat smiled slightly. "Of course, I'm here to comfort you. I heard some things recently. Let me say this first, I'm not here to provoke you on purpose, nor do I intend to inquire about your CIA matters. It's just that this matter has caused an uproar internationally. I'm afraid that there's really no one who doesn't know about the CIA's Twelve Heavenly Stars falling into trouble in Hua Xia, right? "
Douglas clenched his fist. He knew that this woman didn't come here with good intentions!
"Fortunately, the people you trained are tight-lipped. Even if they were sentenced to life imprisonment by the International Court of Justice, they wouldn't say that it was an order given by you, the leader of the CIA." The blonde woman in the trench coat smiled slightly. "Not bad. If there's a chance, come to the FBI and help me train my people. Let them learn how to keep their mouths shut if there's a problem and the mission fails … Hehehe, it's just that my people have never failed before."
"That's enough. I'm not in the mood to listen to you right now! What exactly are you here for? If you're just here to mock me, then you've already achieved your goal. "Douglas said," Take care, I won't send you off. "
The blonde woman in the trench coat chuckled for a while. "I'm not as bad as you say. Why would I mock you? I'm also here for work. It's about Kevin Mathew. "
"His matter is our CIA's matter! Even if something happens to the Twelve Heavenly Stars, I'll still take care of this matter! " Douglas said coldly. He wasn't convinced. Even if they failed, it wasn't up to the people from the Federal Investigation Agency to intervene! Just take care of your own matters!
The blonde woman in the trench coat smiled slightly. "Do you think I want to care about your trivial matters? If it weren't for the orders from above, I wouldn't have bothered to come. Hmph, talking about work in a garbage dump really affects my mood. "
