David Maslow was worried about investigating the crossbow, but Mika, who had never been in danger, continued to investigate without hesitation.
A few days after the investigation, Mika was in her office, immersed in sorting out the clues, when she was awakened by a knock on the door. She fixed her collar and hair, then said, "Come in."
A middle-aged man in his forties with a gloomy expression pushed the door open. "I'm Kaman, from the Internal Affairs Department." He showed Mika his ID.
After confirming that he was from the Internal Affairs Department, Mika asked, "Why are you looking for me?"
"Nothing big, just a routine check. The higher-ups asked me to check the mental state of the agents and see if there's anything missing from the cases they've handled." Kaman glanced around Mika's office with a straight face. "Is there anything strange about the boss recently?"
"What?" Mika paused for a moment, then asked carefully, "Maslow did something wrong?"
"Routine questioning. You know, one of the jobs of the Internal Affairs Department is to make sure that the agents' bodies and minds don't have any problems with their work. Maslow's workload is too heavy, so we're a little worried."
Kaman walked to Mika's desk and put his hands on it. He stared at Mika meaningfully. "The case is endless. Sometimes you have to pay attention to your rest, right?"
"Yes, that's right." Mika nodded blankly. She suddenly understood why this guy was here. He was here to warn her and Maslow not to meddle in the crossbow case.
"I hope you understand." Kaman stared into Mika's eyes for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed. "Good luck, rookie."
At noon, Mika received a call from Maslow. She hurried out of the office building and walked to a small park not far away. She found Maslow ordering a hot dog. Mika said anxiously, "Boss, the Internal Affairs Department came looking for me this morning. What should I do?"
"What do you mean what should you do?" Maslow paid for two hot dog sets and handed one to Mika. "I told you to let go a long time ago. Now the Internal Affairs Department is here to warn you. If you continue investigating, assassins might come looking for you. Mika, listen to me. Don't worry about this case."
"Boss, the David Maslow I know isn't like this. Didn't you encounter a lot of assassins from the Black Gang and the Black Gang before? Why are you so cautious this time? "
"Mika, Reading Owl and the Grey Gang would at most hire assassins. But who's Ancestral Crossbow? It's an assassin organization that's been around for thousands of years. Their job is to kill people for money. Not only are they more professional, but they also have an endless supply of assassins. How many times do you think we'll be able to escape from them? "
"But I don't want to give up just like that." Mika took a sip of her cola. "How about we give up on the surface and investigate in secret?"
"No, please don't. I don't want to attend your funeral. You're still young and have plenty of opportunities for promotion. There's really no need for you to get involved in something so dangerous." Maslow shook his head and refused.
"Alright." Mika was disappointed to see that Maslow was scared out of his wits. She decided to ignore him and continue her investigation. "I'll let go. Thank you for lunch."
After saying that, Mika took the lunch bag and went back to the office building. She didn't notice that Maslow was wearing a mini earpiece in his left ear.
Sitting on a bench in the small park and eating a hot dog, a voice came from the earpiece. "Boss, there's someone watching you and Mika. Why don't we let go? I have a feeling that this case is more dangerous than the previous ones."
"Did you find the helper I asked you to find?" Maslow sat on the bench and drank his cola. "This time, the helper must be an expert."
"I did. I know a New York SWAT officer named Luke Hobbs. He's a super big guy with a SEAL background. He's the special case team leader of the Criminal Division. He has an 11-man tactical team full of SEALs. They specialize in handling major cases."
"Mm, that's good. From now on, you guys secretly protect and keep an eye on Mika. If she doesn't stop, there's a 100% chance that she'll be assassinated."
"Boss, we really shouldn't get involved in this case." The subordinate hesitated for a moment and reminded him again.
"That's impossible. After the Internal Affairs came looking for me this morning, I received a promotion interview notice. Once I pass the interview, I'll take you guys to the headquarters. Do you want to give up on going to the headquarters? Gerard? "Maslow asked in a low voice.
Gerard thought for a few minutes before replying, "Then we're just going to watch Mika walk step by step into danger?"
"Then why don't you be the bait instead of Mika?" Maslow pursed his lips and comforted him. "This time, just treat it as a test for Mika. Which of us didn't go through this?"
"Okay, you're the boss. Whatever you say. I'll go find Luke Hobbs' team and assign them a mission. Try to protect Mika as much as possible. I'll call you if there's anything. Bye, boss."
"Mm."
After drinking his cola, David Maslow sat for another ten minutes before returning to the office building to deal with his own business.
Maslow knew that he was definitely being watched, but he didn't expect there to be two groups of people watching him.
Black Phantom Lei Zang hung up the phone and shook his head at the White Phantom.
"Haha, what did I say? I told you not to report to the boss. If you want to save someone, save them first. Now, are you going to save them or not?" The White Phantom looked at Black Phantom mockingly. "You still don't know our boss' personality and way of doing things.
He probably wants this black beauty named Mika to be killed by Ancestor Ao's crossbow. As long as FB1's people are killed, we don't even need to do anything ourselves. FB1's people will help us kill Ancestor Ao's crossbow. Our boss is best at using others to do his dirty work. "
"Okay." Black Phantom only hummed softly. He looked at Mika, who was working through the glass window, but he despised the White Spirit in his heart. He suddenly understood why William had taken him in as his servant and rejected the White Spirit.
"Hey, buddy, I say, are you going to save this black beauty or not?"
"You'll know."
"Damn it, I always thought I didn't like to talk. You're even less talkative than me." The White Phantom couldn't stand Black Phantom's invisible coolness when he didn't say anything.
"I'll go follow Ancestor Ao's people. You stay here and keep an eye on your black beauty."
"Mm."
"FK, next time I won't go on a mission with you. Also, let me remind you, the boss' mission is to protect David Maslow." She disappeared in a flash.
Black Phantom looked at the place where the White Phantom disappeared and whispered, "Me too."
At 8 pm, October's sky was completely dark. Mika finished dealing with the information in her hands, slung her bag over her shoulder, and drove home with the information.
After parking the car on the side of the road, Mika was wondering why the street lights were all off today. Thinking about Ancestor Ao's crossbow, Mika's first reaction was not to drive away, but to take the key to open the underground door of her building and go home quickly.
Whoosh! A dart appeared on the door.
