Luke nodded, then looked at Lorna: "Going home is fine too, I'll have someone..."

Clarice quickly said, "No need, Director Dan, we can walk by ourselves. Don't trouble yourself. You know we'll be quick."

Luke thought for a moment, nodded again, and then looked at Lorna: "When we get home, have Rachel call me."

It's impossible for him to go home so soon.

after all……

He still needs to stay here to handle the aftermath.

Lorna nodded repeatedly.

Lu Ke then looked at the remaining students in the room, who seemed to have no intention of continuing, and chuckled: "Go home, everyone. The party is over. Anyone who hasn't left in ten minutes, come to my Federal Building for a cup of coffee."

The words fell.

moment.

The students closest to the gymnasium entrance had already started running towards the door like little motors.

All of a sudden.

Like zombies unleashed, one student after another ran out of the gymnasium, and soon after, the lights on of the cars in the parking lot came on one after another.

Marlborough Private High School is a private school, so not all students can afford new cars, but at sixteen years old, buying a used car is not a problem.

About half an hour later.

The stadium was brightly lit, but it was completely empty.

The sentries were all forced to squat on the lawn outside.

Luke sat on the steps at the entrance of the stadium, watching with great interest the thirty-odd sentries who were crouching on the lawn in front of him, holding their heads in their hands, under the watchful eyes of federal agents.

The phone rings.

Luke withdrew from the group of sentries and took out his phone from his pocket.

connected.

“Lu Ke”.

"Lorna went back?"

"Ah."

Rachel, who was at home, looked up at the second floor and asked, "I just came back with Clarice. What happened? Clarice said that the Sentinel Special Operations team went to the school?"

Luke sensed the tension in Rachel's voice: "Don't worry, when I came over, these sentries were just about to draw blood from Lorna, but I stopped them."

Rachel breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. Have those sentries left?"

Lu Ke shook his head.

"Not yet, I'm still waiting for their commander to arrive."

"...Sir? Who led the team?"

"Roland Frey, he is dead."

"died."

"Correct."

Lu Ke suddenly raised an eyebrow as he said this: "I almost forgot, I need to call Alexander and go back to apologize to Jia Ying and Karl after I'm done with this."

Done.

Luke hung up the phone immediately, then found Alexander Pierce's number and dialed it.

It took a while before the call was connected.

Alexander got out of bed, put on his glasses, and answered the phone, looking somewhat angry but helpless.

"Lu Ke, I finally managed to fall asleep..."

"Roland Fury is dead."

"..."

Lu Ke thought for a moment and added, "You're welcome!"

Alexander: “…”

the next day.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

Luke, who was at home having breakfast with Rachel instead of going to work, received a call from Jack.

"Hey."

"Boss, Director Alexander Pierce is here."

"Okay, take him to my office for a bit, I'll be right there."

"it is good."

Luke hung up the phone, put it aside, and then picked up his coffee again and took a sip.

Rachel, sitting across from her, looked up and asked, "Aren't you leaving?"

Lu Ke chuckled: "You didn't leave either, so forget about the morning news."

Rachel smiled at Luke: "I'm sorry, yesterday was the last time I hosted the morning news."

Lu Ke looked at Rachel, who was sitting across from him with her hands supporting her chin and a beautiful smile, and raised an eyebrow: "You got promoted?"

Rachel smiled and nodded: "CBS, evening news anchor, prime time, I'm scared."

Luke looked surprised, stood up, and walked towards the liquor cabinet: "Wow, this is great news! Why didn't you tell me?"

Rachel stopped Luke from getting ready to celebrate with drinks.

Luke turned around and looked.

Rachel smiled brightly: "Tonight is my first time hosting, and I have to go to the company at noon. Sorry, I don't drink. You wouldn't want your beautiful and generous fiancée to embarrass herself on her first time hosting the evening news, would you?"

Luke had no choice but to abandon his idea of ​​celebrating with alcohol. After kissing Rachel, he switched to coffee as a substitute for alcohol, clinking glasses with her: "Do you need me to come to the event tonight to cheer you on?"

Rachel rested her chin on her hands, looked up, thought seriously for a moment, and then looked at Luke: "If you can pay for the tickets, that's fine."

Luke instantly understood the meaning behind Rachel's words and laughed heartily: "You want to finish the Marlborough School files?"

Rachel rested her chin on her hands, smiling at Luke, but said nothing.

but……

Silence means consent.

Tonight is Rachel's first evening news show.

She needs a stunning debut.

What could be more stunning than an exclusive and groundbreaking news story?

The core of a journalist is news.

The more groundbreaking and exclusive, the better.

Less than ten hours after the incident at Marlborough School last night, numerous media reporters in Los Santos were already gathered downstairs at the Federal Building at 6:00 AM this morning, trying to find an opportunity to obtain firsthand, exclusive inside information.

After all, according to some of the news that circulated last night, the content was quite shocking.

Someone died.

More than one.

Luke's mind raced, and he looked up at Rachel, smiling as he asked, "Is it absolutely necessary?"

Rachel shrugged: "My assistant and team have prepared several front-page spreads for me for tonight's show. If you find it troublesome, I can use those."

In terms of being understanding and considerate.

Rachel is impeccable.

She was ambitious, that's true, but she also knew how much of her success as an anchor for the evening news show was due to her own efforts.

If her fiancé wasn't named Luke Dane.

Rachel believed that she might be able to get promoted to the evening news program on her own merits, but it would definitely not happen that quickly.

Because without Luke, she would never have been able to represent him at those high-society dinners that her previous status wouldn't have allowed her, as the fiancée of the FBI's Assistant Director of Operations.

and so……

Rachel's premise for asking Rudd for news has always been based on a certain standard, which she has consistently adhered to.

She would never take what Lu Ke refused to give her.

but!

"Of course I'll give it to you, how could I not?"

Luke stood up, walked over to Rachel, and hugged her with a smile: "Tonight is my fiancée's first show. Forget the news, even if you want to broadcast whether there are aliens in Area 51, I'll give you access to the FBI's database."

talking.

After releasing Rachel, Luke thought for a moment and said, "At eleven o'clock, have your assistant contact Earl."

Rachel was a little curious.

"Why eleven o'clock?"

"Because I haven't prepared the evidence yet."

"..."

Luke was telling the truth.

He went to the school yesterday, didn't say a word, and directly took Roland Frey to the banquet.

This is a fact.
