Chapter 9 Vampires, no, mutants
Are vampires under the FBI's control?
This joke is not funny at all.
It’s not like Locke didn’t have classmates who joined the FBI. Among federal political and law enforcement agencies, Harvard and Yale are two separate entities.
Again.
In the past two years, his first target has been extraordinary creatures, vampires. If the FBI was responsible for vampires, would he still have to wait until today?
Locke once borrowed the FBI account of a classmate and logged into the internal system. Not to mention vampires, even serial killers, the total number that the FBI has not found exceeds three digits.
so……
This looks like a law enforcement agency on federal land with no law enforcement authority acting in the name of the FBI.
He wouldn't say who it was.
Everyone who understands understands.
Besides, whether it is true or not, we will know later when people arrive.
After a while.
Jack and Brown, who just ran to the information office, also received the news that the case would be transferred to the FBI.
Brown walked up to Locke with an ugly face: "Locke, this case cannot be handed over to the FBI."
What a joke.
The ones who died were his team members, not FBI personnel. Why should this case be handed over to the FBI?
Locke, who was sitting in his seat and had just turned on his computer, raised his head and looked at Brown, who was looking at him without blinking, and sighed: "Brown, the rules are there."
In non-mutant cases, the Sentinel Secret Service does not have any law enforcement authority.
After hearing this, Brown took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and said in a low tone: "Locke, the person who died is one of ours."
Locke glanced at Brown, frowned, did not answer the sentence, but changed the subject: "Did you find anything in the Information Office?"
Brown frowned.
Jack on the side said quickly: "Not much, but his credit card statement shows that he goes to a bar called 'Satan' to spend money every night."
Locke raised an eyebrow.
"every day?"
Jack nodded: "Yes, most of the time it's around three-thirty at night."
With that said, Jack handed Locke the credit card statement he had just printed out from the Information Department.
Locke took the information handed over by Jack and nodded thoughtfully.
Look, the second and even more vampires have been found.
Low-level vampires need to drink blood every day, otherwise their bodies will begin to become weak.
only……
"This is the amount of consumption?"
Locke looked at the consumption amount displayed on the credit card statement and looked up at Jack: "Three hundred dollars a night, where is his source of income."
Good guy, even if he spends three hundred a day, he wouldn't dare to be so extravagant.
Locke's current annual salary is about US$120,000, which translates to about US$10,000 per month, which translates into a weekly salary of US$2,500 per week.
This salary looks like a lot, but in fact it is not much.
The monthly rent for the apartment just opposite Central Park costs $2,000.
Not to mention that he is still paying off his student loan every month.
This does not include food, clothing, housing and transportation every month.
That is to say, at the beginning of this year, Locke became a senior agent and received a salary increase. From time to time, he was also subsidized by his high-paying wife. Otherwise, he would really become a moonlighter.
But what did he see on this bill? Every day, every night, from 3:30 to 4 o'clock, an unshakable consumption of three hundred dollars?
Three hundred a day, two thousand one a week, ninety thousand a month, one million eight hundred thousand a year.
hiss.
He has heard that every vampire is a hidden rich man, but this level of consumption is too exaggerated.
"Well……"
Jack and Brown looked at each other as if something was wrong while listening to Locke's calculation.
Brown shook his head: "We found out that he had an overseas bank card in his name, and a consulting agency would remit money to him regularly every month. When we found this consulting agency, the system triggered and blocked his information."
Locke touched his chin: "Informant fee?"
Brown said solemnly: "In short, this case cannot be handed over to the FBI, Locke."
Locke looked at Brown, who spoke in a low tone, and couldn't help laughing: "When did I say I would hand over this case?"
Brown frowned.
"Didn't you just say you wanted to..."
"The person who died was not a mutant, so this case is out of our hands."
"Well……"
"But the one who dies now is a mutant who can become a vampire, right? The color of the test tube must have changed at that time. We all saw it, didn't we?"
"..."
Eyes facing each other.

Brown looked at Locke's eyes and the expression on his face. After being stunned for a moment, Brown looked at each other with Jack next to him, and then an inexplicable expression appeared on his face.
Then the two of them nodded towards Locke.
"Yes, that's right, we saw it."
"That's okay."
Locke laughed again, spread his hands and said, "Since the person who died is a mutant, who will this case be transferred to?"
Only the Sentinel Secret Service has the authority to take over cases of mutants and mutants.
The kind that no other law enforcement agency can use.
He never thought of transferring this case, even though he was sure that the FBI agent who would come was not a real FBI agent but an illegal organization.
That's right, I'm talking about you, SHIELD.
Locke had no interest in deliberately making things difficult for SHIELD. If there was any difficulty, it was SHIELD that made things difficult for him first.
He was still counting on expanding his extraordinary recipes through the vampire that died yesterday.
What was this situation like now?
Locke prepared the ingredients and was ready to cook, but the people from SHIELD planned to pack up his ingredients and even the cooking tools without even discussing it.
Who could tolerate this?
It was true that he didn't want to get involved too much with SHIELD, but that didn't mean he would remain indifferent even if they came to slap him in the face.
Besides.
Not only did five people die in his group, but the case was also snatched away. If people from other groups knew about this, they would probably laugh at him for a long time.
Especially Brown, what if he got disappointed?
He was still counting on Brown to give him extraordinary points.
So...
The person who died yesterday was never a vampire, but a mutant with a mutant ability that was very similar to that of a vampire.
That's what they wrote in their report.
Locke glanced at Jack and Brown, who looked at each other with a hint of excitement on their faces, looked at the time on his watch, and said to Jack: "The FBI people are probably on the way, so, Jack, you'd better write yesterday's case report before they come, and then send it to Walter for signature."
Once the report is handed in, the evidence is irrefutable, and no one will die.
It is said that the person who died was a mutant with a mutant ability that was very similar to that of a vampire, that is, a mutant.
Jack listened to this and quickly came back to his senses and walked towards his position.
"I wrote the report yesterday, I'll check it again and hand it over."
"... I'll help you."
Brown also turned around and caught up with Jack, intending to help Jack speed up.
Locke looked at the two people leaving, smiled, and said nothing.
