The Wolf of Los Angeles.

FBI branch in downtown Los Angeles.

The news about the spy was kept strictly confidential for the time being, and Russell was dragged into the interrogation room and interrogated by Chick and Bernardo personally.

Spies have no human rights, and the FBI dares to take action even if they are suspected of being spies.

Russell was subjected to the notorious water torture and found that he was not as strong as he had imagined. With a towel covering his mouth and nose and cold water poured on him again and again, he did not want to resist anymore.

Because this was an absurd mission from beginning to end. The big boss who was about to visit the European Union chose to sacrifice these true patriots in order to please Western public opinion.

It’s not that Russell is not strong enough, but actions like this make him unable to be strong.

When the soaked towel was taken away, Russell spurted out a burst of water and coughed, "I...speak, I speak!"

Chic and Bernardo looked at each other, sat down at a table, and said, "Let's get started."

"I belong to the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service..." Russell, who had lost his spiritual faith, told everything he had experienced and knew.

News from the interrogation room continued to spread outside. Based on Russell's confession, Jennifer kept dispatching personnel to arrest the relevant personnel.

But except for the people who searched Russell's residence and got some results, all the others who were sent out came back empty-handed.

Jennifer personally contacted the Federal Aviation Administration and asked them to help look for a Romanian named Alexander.

The Aviation Administration's departure records showed that Alexander had taken a flight to Hungary several days earlier.

Russell's communication is based on a single line. If Alexander cannot be caught, this line will be broken, and it will be difficult to dig out other spies.

But Russell is also a surprise.

Jennifer, as Hawke's accomplice, knew very well that Eugene Kropov was a fake spy and Russell was a real Russian spy.

The latter can prove the former.

By the afternoon, Russell had confessed all he could.

His spiritual beliefs completely collapsed, and he even expressed the idea of ​​joining the FBI.

Once a person changes, it is easy for him to go from one extreme to another.

Jennifer called Hawke and then went to the Coast Building again.

The two met in the reception room on the 16th floor.

Jennifer said, "It has been confirmed. Russell's real name is Russell Karnikov. He is a spy affiliated with the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service. He received KGB training as early as the Cold War. He came to Los Angeles in early 1997 and has been lurking for more than eight years. During this period, he did not carry out any missions until this month..."

Hawke listened to her description and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Edward took a newspaper from the newspaper rack and handed it to Hawke: "There's a report on it."

Hawke took a look and saw that a big figure in Russian politics was about to visit the European Union in Brussels to discuss many cooperation issues between Russia and the European Union.

This is a typical pro-Western person.

Although it seems particularly absurd, there are countless absurd things done by senior politicians in countries around the world.

As a result, to the spectators watching from the outside, the whole world seems like a huge makeshift team.

Hawke stopped thinking about these things and considered more realistic issues: "Now that the identity of the spy has been confirmed, can we make it public? This will be good for us."

Jennifer had thought about it when she came: "I have asked the higher-ups for instructions to release the news via Twitter tonight and hold a briefing on the case tomorrow morning."

She thought for a moment and suggested, "Discovering the spy is of no use to you, and it may also lead to retaliation from the Russians. How about this? The FBI discovered the spy and captured him today after a long investigation and tracking."

Twitter really doesn't need this kind of reputation, and Hawke also knows how to share the benefits with his allies. He said, "You come up with a detailed charter so that I can speak with one voice, and you can cooperate and tie the case closely to the BlackRock espionage case."

There are benefits for both sides, so Jennifer certainly would not refuse and said, "Russell came here for the BlackRock espionage case."

Hawke tapped the armrest of his chair and said thoughtfully, "BlackRock Investment Group has been involved in two espionage cases in a row. Can the FBI apply to the Department of Justice to conduct a comprehensive investigation of BlackRock?"

He paused and continued, "I will contact the White House and Chief of Staff Andy Carter will be responsible for communication. I have talked to him about this topic in Washington before."

"BlackRock has an unshirkable responsibility for this series of cases." Jennifer is not from an ordinary family, and her family has a certain amount of power. She can sit in the position of head of the Los Angeles branch as a woman, not just by virtue of her ability: "My father works in the Ministry of Justice. I will call him and ask him to help push it forward."

Hawke said, "I won't say much to thank you. Brian should have told you how your company can become a supporting manufacturer when the AI ​​Manhattan Project is officially launched."

Jennifer laughed: "Someone is already preparing for it."

Twitter alone cannot accomplish this plan.

So, Hawke united a bunch of termites to explode America's gold coins.

As the world's biggest BOSS, America is most suitable to be defeated by all kinds of players together.

When an eagle dies, all things come to life.

The two discussed for nearly an hour, and Jennifer left and returned to the branch office to continue handling the espionage case. Hawke asked Edward to call Lola and asked her to come to the 16th floor.

When Laura saw Hawke, she asked, "The person was taken away by the FBI. Has his identity been confirmed?"

Hawke said directly: "You should be mentally prepared. Russell is from the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service. He is a spy who has been lurking in Los Angeles for more than eight years. This time he approached you in connection with the Blackrock espionage case. He wants to get key intelligence through you."

“I didn’t expect that he would be this kind of person!” Laura’s face was slightly bitter, but not too much, and she said, “I’m sorry, Hawke, I’ve caused trouble for the company…”

Hawke interrupted her and said, "You don't need to apologize. You have done a good job in this matter because your timely feedback has prevented the company from suffering major losses in the future."

Laura smiled and said, "I am an employee of Twitter. Twitter pays me a high salary. I cannot watch the company's interests suffer."

This is the truth, because without Twitter, it would be difficult for her to find a job in a company with such good treatment.

As for starting a business, Lola and Cassim had experienced a failed business venture, and if Twitter had not acquired them, they would have definitely gone bankrupt.

"The company will issue an internal notice stating your contribution this time." Hawke meant that the credit for the spy's work would go to the FBI: "You are too involved in this involving Russian spies. There is no benefit."

Laura nodded in agreement.

Hawke will not only give spiritual encouragement, but also practical rewards: "You will receive a special reward of $50. You can plan how to use it."

Laura smiled from ear to ear: “Thank you, thank you company, thank you chairman!”

"Go ahead and get busy." Hawke added, "The rewards will be distributed within a week."

Lola left the office happily, and Russell had been forgotten by her.

No matter how good a man is, he can never be as good as $50.

Hawke said to Edward, "Send a notice in the name of the chairman's office. Don't be specific. Just say that Laura assisted the FBI in capturing a Russian spy, and the company will reward her handsomely."

Edward went to make the announcement.

Twitter has suspended its cooperation with iFlytek. Haaland is leading a professional team to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the company's optical cables.

The Ministry of Justice will also add civil litigation clauses based on actual circumstances, and all losses and compensation this time will be counted on BlackRock.

Just before getting off work, Jennifer called again.

Hawke asked Edward to post the video footage captured by the Security Department on the official Twitter account.

The images were carefully selected so as not to show anyone’s front.

Twitter mainly uses photos, with text captions - Twitter once again cooperates with the FBI to capture a Russian spy!

As soon as the news was released, it attracted a lot of responses.

Fox 11's Twitter account asked: Got a second one caught?

Message from the Los Angeles Times: Can you disclose more information?
The ABC TV account asked: When will the press conference be held?

At 6 p.m., the FBI Los Angeles office issued an announcement that a briefing on the latest espionage case would be held at 10 a.m. tomorrow.

All the media, big and small, in Los Angeles and even California were in an uproar.

The last spy case has not yet ended, and a second one has been caught? Still related to Twitter?

In his office at the Coast Tower, Hawke was holding a video conference with Hurst, the communications director, and Elizabeth Carter of Peterson Consulting in Washington.

The latter asked: "Has it been confirmed that he is a Russian spy?"

Hawke leaned back in his chair and said, "One hundred percent sure, it is directly related to the AI ​​Manhattan Project."

Hurst smiled and said: "This is good news, which will further increase the enthusiasm of the AI ​​Manhattan Project."

Elizabeth continued: "This is very beneficial to our lobbying work in Washington. Russia has sent a second wave of spies to target Twitter. What does this mean? Twitter's AI Manhattan Project has made the Russians feel a huge threat."

Hawke said, “This is my intention in calling you to this meeting, to use this case in lobbying after the FBI press conference tomorrow.”

Elizabeth was very direct: "Thanks to the Russian bosses for the assist."

Hurst laughed out loud: "I have never found Russians so lovely. I must toast them later."

Hawke was also laughing: "You have a chance. A pro-European and American leader in Russia will soon visit the EU headquarters in Brussels. You can go to the EU headquarters and attend their reception."

Elizabeth continued, "It's better to stay in Washington and encourage congressmen to express their indignation against the Russians."

Hawke then asked about the progress of the lobbying efforts.

After winning over Vice President Cheney, Elizabeth won the support of Johnny McCain and also persuaded several congressmen.

Currently preparing to capture Tom Emo, the third person in the Elephant Party. (End of this chapter)
