Chapter 1376 Zoe's Visit (Double Monthly Ticket Request)

In fact, Jack and Finch did not sit in the car all night, because the Powells went to bed early after putting their two children to sleep.

With a cloned cell phone as a bug, Finch only needs to set up a monitoring program for automatic reminders.

The base building of the wanted criminal team was only about ten minutes away from here, so the two waited for another hour and a half after the couple fell asleep in the house and ended the surveillance operation.

The next morning, the base building welcomed an unexpected guest to Jack.

His first woman in this world, the former chief of the LAPD Wilshire Branch and now a hot political star in the federal Congress, the Honorable Congresswoman Zoe Anderson.

It is said that a long separation is better than a new marriage. The passionate kiss between the two when they met stunned several FBI agents who came to eat for free early in the morning.

Although Jubal and the others had heard about someone's "romantic" deeds a long time ago, and knew more or less about the existence of some other "lovers", and even gossiped about them behind Hannah and Jiejie's backs, they lamented that people's hearts have changed.

But seeing it with your own eyes was another matter, especially after Zoe let go of Jack, she hugged Hannah, who looked unhappy, and asked with a smile, "Surprise, little pumpkin?"

"Not at all." Hannah pouted until Zoe took out a gift box and opened it, revealing a Remington 1875 antique revolver with intricate patterns.

Two female bodyguards from the security company affiliated with Shangri-La carried out a large pile of gifts from the bulletproof Saab bus they drove. Not only did all the FBI members present receive gifts, but even Jubal's two daughters and Clay's youngest son received toys suitable for their age groups.

Jiejie was holding a large box of Dior's "Rouge Dior" lipsticks in all shades, with an indescribable expression on her face. She couldn't say she was happy, but she was definitely not angry either.

Jack received a bunch of Chinese medicinal herbs in sealed jars, ranging from Polygonatum sibiricum, Cuscuta australis, Cistanche deserticola, ginseng to deer antlers. He was stunned by the combination, as it was obvious that it was made by someone who knew the trade.

So the FBI agents were very tactful and said goodbye and left after receiving the gifts. Today was supposed to be a day off, but it became a routine for everyone to get together and enjoy the delicious food cooked by Jack after solving a case.

It was obviously impossible to have a dinner together today. Jack made the excuse that he didn't have time to prepare the ingredients. Everyone then laughed and said something like "I heard that the newly opened hot pot restaurant in Chinatown is pretty good", and drove away in twos and threes.

It was not until Zoe pulled Hannah aside and whispered to each other for a long time that the sweet girl left with Jiejie reluctantly.

In fact, there were two female bodyguards waiting outside the door in broad daylight, and the two could not do anything. Zoe just wanted to talk to Jack face to face about a major incident that had happened in the Caribbean before.

"Don't do such dangerous things next time. You are not a superhero, and the problems of this country cannot be solved by a superhero."

After hearing the whole story, Zoe sighed, and Jack smoothed her frown with his fingers. "It's just that there are some things that are hard to stand. It turns out that we do have some people who share the same path."

"Yeah, it's because you're a guy who attracts both men and women. Everyone gathered together because of you."

Jack was shocked by this, "Hey, honey, what you said is really ambiguous." The two of them stayed together for a long time before they separated again. Jack felt a little distressed when he saw Zoe, who looked a little tired, "You said you were here to attend the event, why didn't Maureen come to New York with you?"

The female councillor pretended to be coquettish and said, "Why? Are you not satisfied with me being alone? Do you have to have two of us together?"

Jack was overwhelmed, and after a slap, the elder sister became more obedient. She sighed and complained, "Your Professor Cahill is busier than I am now. She was just named by the party whip to join the presidential campaign team and become one of the campaign consultants."

"What's the benefit?" The Elephant Party's presidential candidate this time is the guy who called the Seres rednecks in his previous life.

Although this world is not as crazy as Jack's previous life, the Federation and Seris mainly rely on verbal attacks and do business in private, but the guy who still speaks without restraint in public still makes him unhappy.

"Being promised the position of Secretary of Housing and Urban Development means you're entering the cabinet." Although she said that, Zoe's expression seemed a little disapproving.

The Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development, referred to as HUD, is indeed a department of the Cabinet. Its responsibility is to establish a reasonable housing system and suitable living environment for federal citizens. To put it bluntly, it is to develop the federal version of affordable housing.

HUD also has regulatory authority over bank mortgages, but in fact it can be regarded as an insignificant and unemployed department. However, being able to become a cabinet minister is a pretty good start for Maureen, who is new to politics.

The sweet time between the two was always short, and before they knew it, it was evening. Zoe was reluctant to leave as she had to go to the Federal Building to pick someone up.

The congresswoman was in New York to attend a campaign dinner, so it was impossible for Jack to appear in public with her as her male companion.

But because of her special marital status, Zoe could choose a female companion instead of a male companion, so Jack's female boss Dana Moger became her companion to the dinner.

Jack casually asked about the campaign dinner, and heard a familiar name, "New York City Councilman Mike DeLancey? The guy who's planning to run for mayor of New York City?"

His heart was moved, and he quickly asked, "Where is the address of the dinner?"

"A hotel in Flushing. I need to check the memo for the exact location." Zoe, who was still sitting astride Jack's legs with her arms around his neck, was a little confused and was about to reach for the lady's bag on the coffee table.

"No, I have to make a call. This can't be such a coincidence, right?" Jack muttered as he picked her up and put her aside. The phone rang as soon as he got it in his hand.

Finch's voice on the phone was a little hurried. "Jack, the folder in Powell's computer has just been partially decrypted. I found an anonymous email account in it. All the emails on it were sent to the office of Delancey City Councilman. Something is wrong."

"Be more specific." Jack gestured to Zoe while asking. The congresswoman nodded in understanding, straightened her clothes a little, and went out to greet the two female bodyguards who had been waiting for her in the Sabo class outside the small building of the base all day.
