“Do you know about Mr. Rich’s plan to retire next year and take up a consultant's position?”
Lynn Hall suddenly asked, looking at Miller Field.
“You heard about it too?”
“Of course. It’s a pity I’m only twenty-four, otherwise I’d definitely contend for the supervisor position.”
Miller Field didn't believe a word Lynn Hall said.
Too young, my ass. Anyone who believed Lynn Hall was an idiot.
However, when he saw Jessica Miles, the supervisor of the Internal Affairs Department, walking towards them expressionlessly.
Miller Field said, “It seems the hyenas from the Internal Affairs Department are still unwilling to let you off easily.”
Giving Lynn Hall a 'good luck' look, Miller walked away.
“What were you two just talking about?”
Coming up to Lynn Hall, Jessica’s expression remained cold.
To outsiders, it seemed as if she was targeting Lynn Hall.
Especially when Miller Field kept glancing over, looking as if he was enjoying the show.
Jessica continued with a cool expression, saying, “He wants to cause you trouble? Don’t worry, the Internal Affairs Department has already secretly launched an investigation into him. In half a month at most, I’ll have some dirt on him.”
Hearing Jessica say this, Lynn Hall also looked serious and said, “Are you wearing black stockings under your suit pants?”
“Yes, you like it when I wear them, don’t you? Want to try it in the restroom?”
As his senior, Jessica was very clear about Lynn Hall’s preferences.
He had carried her long legs countless times.
“Wrong occasion. I’d rather try it at your engagement next month.”
“Then it’s a deal. At that time, I, your senior, will wear a wedding dress—”
“Don’t forget to bring the engagement ring. It’s a pity there won’t be wedding photos.”
“Hehe, that’s simple. If you like, I’ll take a few photos with him before the engagement ceremony next month. Maybe this suggestion will even make him think I love him so much.”
No matter how “blasphemous” their words were, their expressions remained very serious, even somewhat confrontational.
This made Miller Field, who had been constantly glancing over from not far away, very happy.
A guy targeted by the Internal Affairs Department, even if he wanted to compete for the supervisor position, didn't have much of a chance.
After all, those hyenas from the Internal Affairs Department might grab his weakness and crush him at any time!
Tsk… They were from the same university, yet these two couldn't get along.
It had been like this since Lynn Hall joined the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and it definitely wasn't an act!
Many people in the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation knew this!
It seemed his chance of becoming a supervisor next year had increased by another point.
Thinking about how to make the Internal Affairs Department keep a close eye on Lynn Hall, Miller’s gaze shifted to his other two competitors.
Lynn Hall glanced at Miller over there and said to Jessica, “Senior, don’t move against him for now. A knife can only kill the enemy when it’s plunged in at the crucial moment!”
“Besides, what a good candidate to take the blame. I want to use him for some things.”
“Alright, I’ll give you a copy of his investigation results, just like how you got my boyfriend expelled from university back then?”
“How can you say that? Senior, you know I’ve always been kind to people.”
“Hehe, just like when you FUXX me, you insisted I answer my boyfriend’s call? I’m leaving. Don’t forget to come next month.”
After speaking, Jessica turned and left with a cold expression.
Half an hour later.
When all the media swarmed in, the press conference officially began.
Director James Duke was speaking on stage, but Lynn Hall wasn't paying close attention.
His gaze remained on the reporters and the surrounding security.
But when Tony Stark took the podium with his speech manuscript.
Lynn Hall’s expression remained unchanged, but his heart felt a little numb.
In a speech manuscript of several thousand words, Lynn Hall heard Tony Stark mention his name no less than ten times.
Was this what he meant by not much improvisation?
Damn it, if Lynn Hall hadn't known that this speech manuscript was written for Tony Stark by Director James Duke’s staff.
Lynn Hall might have thought Tony Stark was trying to make trouble for him!
Especially when he saw that idiot Miller Field looking at him enviously.
Lynn Hall’s expression remained unchanged, but he had already given Tony Stark several middle fingers in his mind!
Lynn was certain Tony Stark definitely didn't understand the intricacies of the workplace.
After all, he didn't need to know.
From Pepper’s gaze towards him, it was clear Tony just wanted to take this opportunity to express his gratitude to him.
He just wanted to increase his standing in Director James Duke’s mind.
Although, this wasn't a bad thing either.
As Lynn Hall’s gaze remained fixed on the surroundings of the venue, a slightly balding middle-aged man approached with a gentle smile.
“Hello, Mr. Lynn Hall, I am Phil Coulson from the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division.”
“I’d like to talk to you about Mr. Tony Stark.”
Looking at Phil Coulson, known as S.H.I.E.L.D.’s good guy and hailed as the Marvel Novice Village Chief .
Lynn Hall said, “I don’t think this is the right occasion to discuss such matters!”
“My apologies, I was a bit abrupt, Mr. Hall. How about this evening?”
“I have plans tonight, sorry. The Director is calling me!”
Nodding to Coulson, Lynn Hall walked towards James Duke, who was waving at him.
“He’s unwilling to cooperate?”
Listening to the voice coming through his earpiece, Coulson watched Lynn Hall walk onto the press conference stage.
He kept a gentle smile on his face: “That’s right. However, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and us have had disputes, even friction, more than once. If Secretary Pierce hadn’t always been mediating, I’m afraid things would have gotten much uglier between the two sides.”
“So it’s normal for Lynn Hall to be uncooperative. By the way, Hill, after you’ve reviewed his file, what do you think?”
Inside S.H.I.E.L.D..
Flipping through Lynn Hall’s file, Hill said expressionlessly, “He’s a very excellent guy, whether in terms of ability or any other aspect. No wonder he was promoted to D2 at twenty-four.”
“I’ve already reported to Director Fury. If necessary, we can let him see the other side of this World.”
“So, you also think he meets our recruitment requirements?”
Looking at Lynn Hall, who was being photographed by the media, Coulson smiled and said, “I like this young man!”
