Thirty minutes later, Locke arrived at the safe house for his operation again, the apartment building in Inderwood.

He circled twice again before driving into the parking lot of the apartment building.

Before getting out of the car, he also made a little disguise, wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses.

Because he had set the password, he went directly into the safe house this time. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Madeline Hill sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face.

Her charming face seemed to be covered with frost. She stared at Locke with cold eyes and said in a cold voice: “Officer Locke, you are a full hour late. I don’t care what honors you have won before or how thick your background is, but in the Robbery and Murder Division, you are just a newcomer. I need you to obey the discipline and the orders of your superiors. I remember I told you last night that you should be here at 9 o’clock…”

Locke interrupted her, “Captain Hill, have you ever been an undercover?”

He was also unhappy to interrupt his emotional exchange with the little rich woman!

He was about to further test Deborah’s physiological reaction when the phone rang. It was Madeline Hill who called and asked why he hadn’t arrived yet.

Locke then remembered that he had to meet with Madeline Hill this morning to report the fight between the Compton drag racing gang under the Long Beach overpass last night.

It was no big deal, wasn’t it just a dozen niggers who died?

I had already made it very clear last night, but he still insisted on coming to make up the report early in the morning!

Locke actually saw that Madeline Hill’s angry look was deliberately made. If I guessed correctly, she should want to take advantage of his lateness to kill his arrogance and give him a warning.

He snorted in his heart. This trick is not new at all.

At the same time, he was very puzzled. Madeline Hill should know him very well. Why did she do this?

The room was silent in an instant. Madeline Hill stared at Locke in astonishment. This reaction was not in her plan.

She really wanted to take the opportunity to knock Locke, because she had realized that Locke’s style of doing things was too wild.

Such a person, no matter how capable he is, will bring hidden dangers to the team in the future if he cannot be completely controlled.

Madeline Hill said in a deep voice: “Locke, I don’t need to tell you whether I have been an undercover agent or not, but I know that undercover agents also need to obey orders…” Locke interrupted her again, “Then call George Ham now and ask him to come and report the progress to you!” “…” Madeline Hill was stunned, her red eyebrows wrinkled, and she asked fiercely: “Locke, can you tell me what makes you disrespect me so much?” Locke rolled his eyes in his heart, haha, woman. He said seriously: “Captain Hill, don’t you think that such frequent requests for meetings during the undercover period are a great threat to my personal safety?”

Madeline Hill raised her eyebrows, “Haven’t you contacted George Ham yet? Floyd Ross won’t pay attention to you now…”

Locke said in a deep voice: “But Henry Gibbs has become a celebrity now. He already has enemies and has begun to be noticed…”

Madeline Hill snorted coldly, “Do you think the Compton racers can still pose a threat to you?”

Locke pouted and said: “Yes, I reported the danger I faced to you, but I was still found by the Compton racers at night and pointed at by more than a dozen guns. If it weren’t for the fact that I was in the territory of the NC racers, they didn’t dare to act rashly. I’m afraid I’m lying in the morgue of the hospital now…”

“I no longer have any hope for your support. I can only solve this trouble myself, but you are holding this “I’ve been working hard to prepare for the meeting tonight, but you asked to meet me for something unimportant, and you acted so unprofessionally…” “…” Faced with Locke’s complaints, Madeline Hill was a little overwhelmed, “We didn’t do nothing. I have arranged for colleagues to keep an eye on the Compton drag racers, but because Neil’s group is erratic, we didn’t have control of his actions…” “Letting you report in person is part of the procedure. We are here to protect you…” “This is not an unimportant matter. 19 people died in the fight last night. The Park Center held a press conference for this…” “…” Seeing that the time was almost right, Locke spread his hands and said, “OK, then Captain Hill, what do you want to know? I only made three calls last night…” Madeline Hill stared at Locke in a daze, realizing that her intentions were seen through by Locke, and she lost this round. She didn’t say anything else, took out a recorder, turned it on and put it on the table, and said calmly: “Locke, tell me what you did last night and what you saw…” Locke also put away his emotions and said righteously: “Because Neil threatened me, I was worried about him.They were arguing endlessly, which affected my meeting with George Ham in Santa Monica tonight, so I planned to meet Neil and Jesse together and pay some money to reconcile with them. However, when I arrived at the Long Beach Overpass, I heard gunshots under the bridge, so I called Jesse to ask what happened, but when the call was connected, I only heard curses and gunshots from the other end. I was worried about danger, so I left on my own…” After Locke finished speaking, Madeline Hill turned off the recorder and nodded, “Too many people are paying attention to this case now. So I will apply for sealing this transcript, and I will transfer it to the Anti-gang and Anti-drug Division after your undercover operation is over…” She was a little surprised. From her micro-expressions, she didn’t find Locke lying. “Thank you, Captain…” Locke looked sincere, but he had some doubts in his heart. Did the forensic doctor really not find anything wrong with Neil’s ear? After all, he didn’t go to the scene, so he didn’t know what the wound on Neil’s left ear looked like. Madeline Hill asked again: “Tonight, you will meet with George Hamm. Do you need any support?” Locke shook his head and said: “Henry Gibbs’s character is basically established in the Los Angeles drag racing gang. I have visited five tracks with Mendes Repair Shop. Tonight is Santa Monica’s turn. As long as George Hamm doesn’t let down the chain, there will be basically no problems on my side…” Madeline Hill looked at Locke deeply, “The role of Henry Gibbs is just to meet with George Hamm. I really don’t understand why you have done so many things! ”

Locke shrugged, “I don’t want to do this either…”

He didn’t want to treat the role of Henry Gibbs as a one-time thing. He wanted to play with cars, and this time he was undercover in a racing gang, which was just what he wanted.

Madrid Hill stood up and said sincerely: “Locke, good luck!”

It seemed that the previous tit-for-tat had never happened.

Locke stood up and sent her away, and he immediately understood why this woman was called the Black Widow.

This time he offended the new boss, and it should be recorded in the little book.

But he never intended to be a detective who obeyed orders. He offended him. In order to have more autonomy in the future, he was willing to be a thorn.

Locke didn’t stay in the safe house for long. He returned to the car and called Jennifer Grey.

“Dr. Grey, do you have surgery this morning?”
