Legendary FBI Detective-Chapter 235 - 335: FBI Medal of Achievement, FBI Medal of Valor

Near Hemosa Shaha Beach at the Hilton Hotel, Luo An, who was lying on the bed, heard his cellphone ring and groggily pressed the answer button.

Then he was startled by Agent Levis' loud shouting on the other end of the call.

Now fully awake, Luo An scratched his head and touched his slightly sore lower back:

"Good morning, sir. Any good news?"

"..."

Hearing Luo An's lazy voice, clearly just out of bed, and not having found him after knocking on the door for a long time this early morning, Levis's initial excitement had somewhat dissipated.

Nevertheless, it was indeed good news, so Levis rallied his spirits and said loudly:

"Congratulations, Luo An. Due to your brave and outstanding performance in this case, the FBI Washington Headquarters has decided to award you the FBI Medal for Meritorious Achievement and the FBI Medal of Valor!"

"What?"

As soon as Levis finished, Luo An hadn't yet grasped what exactly the mentioned medals entailed, when Mona, who was lying beside Luo An and had just been woken up, exclaimed:

"FBI Medal for Meritorious Achievement and FBI Medal of Valor?!"

Unlike Luo An, Mona, a native Federation citizen whose father was a CIA agent and who had joined the FBI herself, was very familiar with these medals.

She knew that in 1989, the FBI established an honors medal program to recognize the exceptional conduct of FBI agents.

The program consists of four medals: the FBI Star, the FBI Medal for Meritorious Achievement, the FBI Shield of Bravery, and the FBI Medal of Valor.

The FBI Star is awarded to those who are seriously injured during direct physical confrontations with criminals, injuries caused by weapons, gunshot wounds from missions, or who are severely injured and require extensive emergency suturing and hospital treatment.

The FBI Shield of Bravery is awarded for significant assistance provided to special work groups or undercover operations and acts of bravery in major external cases handled by the FBI.

These two medals don't really relate to Luo An as he hasn't gone overseas for undercover missions, nor has he been hospitalized fighting for his life due to severe injuries after completing his mission.

The ones related to Luo An are the following two medals:

The FBI Medal for Meritorious Achievement (FBI Medal for Meritorious Achievement), awarded for outstanding actions in criminal or national security cases or activities that protect or directly save lives during extremely challenging and high-stakes missions.

The Federation Government publicly announced that Harold Bickmore, a retired senior agent, received this medal for rescuing a 16-year-old girl who had stopped breathing and was bleeding profusely at the scene of a four-lane highway traffic accident.

The FBI Medal of Valor (FBI Medal of Valor), awarded for acts of heroism that sacrifice personal safety and life, which must occur while directly performing duties or within the scope of work of the FBI and in the face of criminal adversaries.

The Federation Government publicly announced that Agent Robert, who along with three other agents was shooting a fugitive, received the Valor Medal because Meleta risked his life to protect his colleagues.

In this bombing case, not only did Luo An lead the team to search for clues, find the truth, and apprehend the criminal, but he also single-handedly removed a terrifying bomb, saving all the service staff, guests, and internal FBI agents in the entire villa area.

After the case concluded, Levis immediately applied to the FBI Washington Headquarters for the FBI Medal of Valor for Luo An.

At the same time, Vireness also applied to the FBI Washington Headquarters for the FBI Medal for Meritorious Achievement.

Given Luo An's exceptional performance, along with strong support from Mr. Clement, the FBI Headquarters ultimately made an exceptional decision to not only award Luo An the FBI Medal of Valor, but also the FBI Medal for Meritorious Achievement!

These medals have always been considered one of the highest honors bestowed by the FBI, but now Luo An had received two simultaneously!

After hearing Mona's explanation, Luo An also understood the value of these two medals and hurriedly climbed out of bed with a big grin, saying:

"Thank you, Chief!"

"No need to thank me, this is what you deserve."

As Levis left the apartment and got into the car, he chuckled. If Luo An couldn't get a medal for single-handedly snatching the bomb yesterday and desperately saving so many lives, what use and value would those medals hold?

What Levis did not expect was that the headquarters decided to award Luo An two medals at the same time!

Many FBI agents work for decades without receiving even one of those medals.

But thinking of Luo An's brave performance in solving cases these last two days, Levis deep inside very much agreed with him receiving two medals.

However, thinking that such an exceptional talent like Luo An was under Vireness and that Luo An had no thoughts of leaving Vireness made Levis feel bitter sweetness in his heart.

Envy! Jealousy!

After a brief chat with Levis, Luo An called Vireness to express his gratitude.

Getting the two medals at the same time was definitely with the backing of Mr. Clement behind Vireness.

Otherwise, how could a basic-level FBI agent with no background be exceptionally valued by the Washington Headquarters?

Unless he saved the President like in the movies.

"This is what you deserve, Luo An."

Vireness, just like Levis, also cheerfully affirmed that Luo An's performance deserved an exceptional recognition from the Washington side.

After talking for a while, Vireness then sternly instructed Luo An to never repeat such actions in the future, and told him to enjoy his days off before hanging up the phone.

At this time, Mona had already left the bed and entered the bathroom, so Luo An then called Augustus for a chat. After a while, Luo An threw the phone aside and directly opened the bathroom door and rushed in.

"Wait a minute, Luo An! I'm brushing my teeth!"

"What brushing? We'll brush together later!"

The time then moved to the afternoon of the same day.

After calling last night's restaurant to reserve a spot and saying he'd be there soon, Mona finished her shower and went to organize her clothes. Luo An took a shower while opening the system in his mind.

It was still the familiar light blue page, but what surprised Luo An this time was that the system's evaluation for him was [Excellent].

After a rough transition animation, the system's treasure chest actually produced a total of six potions.

A slight smile appeared on Luo An's face, revealing a hint of enlightenment:

"It looks like [Good] is 4 potions, [Very Good] is 5 potions, and [Excellent] is 6 potions."

Then Luo An became curious — if above [Good] is [Very Good], and above [Very Good] is [Excellent].

Then what's above [Excellent]? Is there a higher evaluation?

But then again, if being evaluated as [Excellent] already involved an intimate encounter with a bomb, the evaluation above [Excellent]… Luo An felt perhaps he'd have to stand shoulder to shoulder with a missile.

Thinking about his increasingly higher positions in the future, with the Federation's various social strata beginning to crazy stack buffs, and political parties inside starting a tumultuous dance… Luo An felt he might have a chance to be in touch with Federation's nuclear weapons.

But then thinking about that huge mushroom cloud, Luo An quickly shook his head and started to seriously inspect the six potions produced by the system's treasure chest.
