The shooting star in the sky grew larger and larger, gradually turning into a ball of fire.
Turns out it wasn't a shooting star at all, but a falling aircraft that crashed in a desolate area east of Los Angeles.
In the desert, ground receiving personnel were already prepared to recover the aircraft.
That's right, it was Gerald Olin from the FEA.
The aircraft that landed was the Space Shuttle Columbia, returning to Earth after completing its mission in space.
Originally, this job should have been done by NASA, the Arican space agency. However, sothing seed to have happened on the Columbia, so the White House had the FEA take over.
Coincidentally, the Columbia's landing site was near Los Angeles, so Gerald, the director of the FEA's Los Angeles branch, beca the one stuck with the job.
This was also one of the reasons why Gerald had been away on a business trip for several days – he was at a eting at FEA headquarters.
"Damn it! Things are really piling up!"
Gerald touched his hair, feeling it thinning more and more.
FEAR (presumably a typo and should be FEA) personnel picked up fire extinguishers, first putting out the flas on the surface of the Columbia, and then began trying to open the shuttle's door.
They didn't know if the astronauts inside the Columbia had passed out. Even after the FEA agents used a cutter to open the shuttle door, there was no movent inside.
Realizing there might be a problem, Gerald had several FEAR (again, likely FEA) team mbers in full protective suits enter the Columbia to check, while the others retreated to a distance to wait for news.
The FEAR (likely FEA) team mbers were stunned when they entered the Columbia. The inside of the shuttle was completely charred, and all three astronauts had turned into burnt corpses.
Well, at least these three astronauts wouldn't have to work overti for nine months on the space station like their successors.
"What's the situation inside? Why is it so dark?"
Gerald's voice ca through the earpiece.
The FEAR (likely FEA) team mbers who entered the Columbia were all wearing miniature caras, similar to body cams, so Gerald outside could potentially see so footage, but all he saw was pitch black.
This was mainly because miniature caras back then weren't as good in terms of resolution.
"Uh, Director Olin, the inside of the Columbia is completely charred, looks like there was a fire! The three astronauts have been burned to death!"
"A fire? Could it be that the Columbia had an accident when returning to Earth?"
Theoretically, if the space shuttle had an accident when entering the atmosphere, it was indeed possible for sothing like this to happen.
The problem was, if it really caught fire, shouldn't it have taken longer to put out?
The FEAR (likely FEA) team mber's miniature cara didn't even capture any smoke. The fire must have been out for a while.

"Check the environnt inside the Columbia!"
The FEAR (likely FEA) team mbers used detection instrunts to begin their checks.
Air detection… safe!
Radiation detection… safe!
Life sign detection… there's a response!
"Director Olin, we've detected life signs!"
"Life signs? Check inside the Columbia!"
The space inside the space shuttle is actually very limited. After all, the power section takes up a lot of space, and trips between the space station and Earth don't take too long. Besides the cockpit, it's mostly the cargo bay.
Soon, the FEAR (likely FEA) team mbers found three crystal coffins in the cargo bay, containing one woman and two n, all completely naked.
All three had their eyes closed, with perfect faces and figures, making all the FEAR (likely FEA) team mbers who saw them involuntarily swallow their saliva.
Fortunately, soone's voice in the earpiece woke the FEAR (likely FEA) team mbers up.
"What are you doing? Report your findings now!"
"Director Olin, I, we saw three people lying in crystal coffins in the cargo bay!"
"Three people?"
Gerald knew that sothing had happened to the Columbia, which was why the FEA was taking over, but he didn't know that the three astronauts had brought back three people from space.
Could they be aliens?
If they were really aliens, shouldn't they be handed over to Area 51?
Area 51, refers to an area located in Lincoln County in southern Nevada, USA. There is an air force base here, which Arica uses to secretly develop and test new air force aircraft.
However, many Aricans believe it's related to UFOs or aliens.
"Move those three crystal coffins out."
Under Gerald's command, the three transparent crystal coffins were moved out. After seeing the people inside, all the agents on the scene swallowed hard.
The sound of swallowing was very uniform and loud, and even Gerald was no exception.
But after swallowing, Gerald felt sothing was wrong. This situation was too similar to the enchantnt during the succubus incident.
Could it be…
"Cover these transparent crystal coffins with tarpaulins and transport them to the nearest underground base!"
The FEA in Los Angeles naturally wouldn't only have the base under the Dolphin Hotel. In fact, that base was mainly used for offices.
Gerald had been careless before. He hadn't expected succubi to evolve with the tis and enter electronic products to influence people, which led his subordinates to directly bring Adela's laptop back to the underground base, almost wiping out all the agents there.
So this ti, Gerald was going to be more careful. He would directly transport the three crystal coffins to the nearest small underground base, so that even if an accident happened, the impact wouldn't be too great.
"Yes, Director Olin!"
Watching the three crystal coffins being loaded onto vehicles, Gerald fell into deep thought.
At first, Gerald thought the people in these three crystal coffins might be aliens, and he even considered handing them over to Area 51 to avoid any direct trouble.
After all, the Man conspiracy and the Beelzebub cult were already keeping the FEA busy enough. Gerald really couldn't spare any manpower to deal with aliens.
However, the powerful charm displayed by the people in the crystal coffins just now had alerted Gerald. Could it be sothing similar to a succubus again?
This ti, unlike the previous cyber succubus, these beings had real physical bodies, so Gerald had the idea of taking them to headquarters for research.
Taking out a satellite phone, Gerald moved away from his subordinates and made a call.
"Hello, sir, this is Gerald Olin. I have a discovery regarding the Columbia!"
"...Yes, yes, should we transport it to headquarters?"
"...Research it directly in California? But the Los Angeles branch doesn't have a research departnt!"
"...Amacham Technology Company? Okay, I'll contact them."
Hanging up the phone, Gerald let out a soft breath. If he could handle this matter well, then even if sothing went wrong with the Lord of Greed incident, he probably wouldn't be demoted.
Thinking of this, Gerald picked up the satellite phone again and started dialing a number.
The scene shifted back to Roy's side. After picking up Elena, he left the Black Shark Bar and returned to the Dolphin Hotel.
Several of the girls hadn't left yet; only Dahlia had gone to put the child to sleep.
"Roy, is everything alright?"
Heather and Penny weren't worried about Roy at all, after all, they had seen him defeat demons more than once.
Only Mary, Keller, Molly, and Amy were a little nervous.
The one who spoke was Amy. In fact, she knew the least about Roy, and her feelings for him were more lust than love.
After all, she was at that age and had needs.
Since she had needs, why not find a handso, well-built, and exceptionally good young man?
The key was that it wouldn't cost her any money!
Well, if Roy knew what Amy was thinking, he would definitely punish her with his long whip, making her kneel on the ground and call him Daddy.
"It's okay. I've had a friendly chat with the boss of those guys in black and made them pay so compensation for emotional distress. I'll distribute it to you now."
Roy took out the cash from the black bag and divided it equally among the won. Including Dahlia, who wasn't present, there were seven people in total, so each person received an average of $180,000.
This situation made the expressions of several won turn strange.
Heather and Penny happily accepted the money. They would do whatever Roy said.
Molly and Amy were a little hesitant. Neither of them had a fixed inco at the mont, and $180,000 was enough for them to spend for a long ti.
Only Mary and Keller had the highest education, and they both knew a lot about law. Mary was even a law student.
"Roy, will doing this cause you any trouble?"
Roy glanced at Mary. Was this short-haired girl now so concerned about him?
"It's okay. I've already sent those guys to the FBI. I know people there, and they won't be getting out."
Hearing Roy say this, Mary and Keller finally felt relieved and accepted their compensation for emotional distress. There was still so cash left in the bag for Dahlia.
A smile appeared on Amy's face.
"I didn't expect to get such an unexpected reward for watching a ga!"
Roy smiled and then thought of other things.
"Recently, the Santa Monica Cup seems to have been targeted by gang mbers who are manipulating the betting odds. You guys should be careful these days and don't go anywhere alone."
If Vincent Diaz could think of manipulating the betting odds, other gangs would definitely think of this lucrative thod as well.
This ti, that idiot had stupidly co directly to their door. If other gangs kidnapped the people around Roy first and then called to threaten him, it would be troubleso.
Roy didn't have the ability to track people through phone lines.
Keller nodded repeatedly.
"We really should be careful. The security in Los Angeles has always been bad!"
The group chatted for a while, and then Keller and Molly said goodbye to Roy. Roy then drove Mary and Amy back.
Next was ga ti before bed. Roy, Heather, Penny, and Dahlia continued playing squad matches to rank up, aiming straight for the world championships.
After a night of flexible ranking, Roy woke up refreshed.
Looking at the three won hugging each other in bed, Roy felt quite comfortable and prepared to get dressed and go out for breakfast.
Before leaving, he still habitually patted the three won's butts.
Slap, slap, slap!
Three crisp sounds, and Heather and Penny couldn't help but stretch out their long legs and kick Roy.
"You bad guy! Don't disturb our sleep."
"Hehehe!"
Roy laughed and dodged the two won's attacks, taking the opportunity to grab their feet.
Hmm, both the feel and the shape were perfect. The guys on the forum would definitely be going crazy.
"Roy, what ti is it?"
Dahlia rubbed her eyes and sat up, not minding the blanket slipping down to reveal a magnificent and beautiful scene that shone brightly in the morning sunlight.
"It's not even seven o'clock yet. Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
As soon as she heard the ti, Dahlia woke up completely.
"Oh my god! Is it almost seven already? I have to go back to my room!"
Dahlia quickly got up to put on her clothes, but her body was entangled with Heather's and Penny's, creating a stunning and breathtaking sight.
"Roy, please help !"
Honestly, Roy quite enjoyed watching this scene, but Dahlia was anxious to see her daughter, so he could only pull Dahlia out of the tangle.
Dahlia's current room was 1209, next to 1208. Before, she would try her best to go back to her own room at night to be with her daughter.
However, last night's battle was probably too intense, so Dahlia had forgotten about it, which was why she seed a little anxious.
Roy and Dahlia each got dressed, and then went to 1209 to pick up their daughter, Cici. The three of them went downstairs to the restaurant for a al like a family.
Dahlia had already received the compensation for emotional distress last night. She was now extrely grateful to Roy and willing to do anything for him.
With this money, Dahlia was much more confident about winning custody of her daughter. Moreover, Mary had also introduced her to her senior from law school who worked as a lawyer.
Roy chatted with Dahlia for a while, and then, as usual, picked up the newspaper and began Browse the latest news. This was a habit he had developed since coming to Los Angeles.
Unexpectedly, the headline on the front page was major news: two mbers of the Los Angeles Police Departnt's Board of Commissioners had died last night.
The Los Angeles Police Departnt is quite unique. The highest leadership in this part is a departnt called the Board of Commissioners, which has five mbers responsible for setting policies and overseeing overall managent and operations.
The sudden death of two commissioners was a significant upheaval for the LAPD.
Moreover, the obituaries in the newspaper were sowhat vague, not ntioning how the two commissioners died, only reminiscing about their great achievents, which seed rather strange.
Could it be Iris who did it?
It seed like that was the only possibility!
The eye of Uriel within Iris could see people's past and future. As long as she found one person in the organization, no one else would be able to escape by following the clues.
This kind of investigative ability was simply too strong!
The larger the organization, the easier it was for Iris to get to the bottom of it. On the other hand, because Jack Derr's side had too few people, Iris probably wouldn't be able to find out much.
It was a pity, but resolving the Beelzebub cult first was also a good thing. At least Roy had one less thing to worry about now.
After flipping through the newspaper for a while, Sultana suddenly appeared and sat down next to Roy, picking up the half-eaten sandwich Roy had and eating it.
