LA Detective

Chapter 416 Undercurrent
"Crackling..."

In the morning, Luke was awakened by a burst of firecrackers.

Luke put on his clothes and opened the door on the balcony. A gust of cold air hit him and made him shiver. This was the winter he was familiar with.

Although the weather in Los Angeles is comfortable, there is no Chinese New Year atmosphere.

Not far from the street, someone was setting off firecrackers, resembling a pair of Asian father and son. This community is closer to Chinatown and there are many Chinese living there.

After setting off the firecrackers, the teenage boys cleaned up the firecrackers on the ground under the command of their father. This is not to say that they are very qualified, but if they don't clean up, they will be reported and fined.

The so-called civilization is established under strict rules and regulations, which cannot be restrained by morality alone.

Luke changed his clothes, washed up briefly, and went down to the second floor.

Li Zhaofeng was making breakfast in the kitchen, "Wake up, how did you sleep last night?"

"It's okay, just a little dry." Luke cleared his throat.

"Clean up and go.

Luke sent the license plate to Matthew and sent a message, "Dude, check it for me, and go back and treat you to dinner."

This house is quite old. Although it has been renovated, some pipes are difficult to replace. The heating pipes are still exposed. It is not underfloor heating. The air will be relatively dry, and the throat is not used to it after sleeping all night.

"Good morning."

"Crackling..." There was a burst of gunfire, and the taste of the new year was even stronger.

Luke moved unhurriedly, but no less than he ate.

"Is it tasty?"

But he was afraid that his parents would ask about Will, so he also took his son home.

"Mom and Dad, leave him alone, this kid is probably still angry and won't answer the phone." Li Zhaonian said perfunctorily.

Li Zhaofeng asked, "Mom, shall I blow it up for you guys?"

"Target is home, we're out there stalking."

Li Zhaofeng originally wanted to live with his son and let his two grandsons accompany his grandparents.

"Then go ahead, you're still young.

"The food is served!" Li Zhaonian shouted.

I don't want to lie to my parents, but I am afraid that my parents will find out and worry.

Dishes are served one after another.

"The devil knows!"

Li Zhaonian said perfunctorily, "I went to a friend's house, come back later."

Li Zhaofeng glanced at his eldest son, but luckily he didn't look crooked.

"Okay." Grandma Luke also smiled and waved, "Come here, let's see what delicious food Grandma makes."

The old lady turned on the TV and found the central one to watch the Spring Festival Gala, "Hey, why isn't Will coming.

"Don't ask for now, if you encounter an accident, don't take the initiative to attack the other party, and focus on evacuation.

What American wouldn't want to buy a condo next to Central Park?
The three of Luke and his son drove to the Sulot community.

With him taking care of Jack in Los Angeles, he is also at ease.

"Yes, is it difficult?"

"Crackling..." The little fat man chewed vigorously, smiling broadly as he ate.

"Your uncle doesn't know either, if he knew where he was, he would have dragged him back.

Li Zhaofeng also fried bacon and ham as side dishes.

He is very satisfied and proud of Luke's current situation.

"No one has changed shift yet."

The old lady took a piece of crispy meat from the bowl of fried New Year's goods, and put it into the little fat man's mouth.

Zhaonian, give him a call, it's getting dark, and ask if you need to pick him up. "

Li Zhaofeng sighed, "Your uncle wants Will to learn how to cook, and he will hand over the restaurant to him later.

The white man in the passenger cab turned off his mobile phone and cursed in a low voice, "What the hell are you doing?"

"good to eat."

"Evacuate here immediately."

"That's why I'm looking for you."

Could it be that he was being followed, shouldn't he?
Even if someone wants to harm you, can you still come to New York?

A black Citroen car followed Li Zhaofeng's Volvo into the community. The car was far away and the lights were turned off, making it difficult to spot.

Braised silver pomfret, donkey meat in sauce, Maoxuewang, pork knuckle in a pot, steamed tofu sandwich, stir-fried Chinese cabbage, sweet and sour shrimp.

"I sent a message to your second uncle, but I didn't reply. I guess it's still awkward.

"Did something happen?"

Li Zhaofeng said hello, and took Brother Luke to sweep the yard, post couplets, blessing characters...

Luke recalled that the people he had offended recently were those two gangs in Mexico?

It's New Year's Eve and you're still making noise, and you don't know how to go home?

……

He took out his mobile phone and zoomed in on the photo on the screen, and he could see the license plate number of the black Citroen sedan.

Luke's grandparents are here.

Luke sat at the dining table, chatting with his father casually. Li Zhaofeng always had a smile on his face while cooking. He liked this way of getting along very much, and he had always fantasized about this scene in his mind.

Matthew replied, "This is a New York license plate, are you in New York?"

The meal was almost ready, so the little fat man yawned and came down without calling.

At noon, the family simply ate some fried New Year's goods, and the evening was the highlight.

"Don't worry about it so much, evacuate immediately."

"grandfather."

Luke doesn't like sauce-flavored wine, so he drank less, so he drove back.

Luke habitually glanced at the rearview mirror, and vaguely felt that the car behind him looked familiar, as if he had seen it at the last intersection.

"It's better to let Will go out and make a breakthrough, it's best to make a breakthrough by himself.

……

The house is a two-story building with an open yard, a stone path, green lawns on both sides, and a black pickup truck in front of the garage on the east side.

After tidying up, the house looked much more festive.

Of course, this does not mean that houses in the suburbs of New York are cheap, it can only be said that houses in the center of New York are too expensive.

The little fat man asked, "Dad, where's Will?"

"Salty food." Li Zhaofeng put a spoonful of batter mixed with vegetable leaves into the pan.

Li Zhaofeng knew that the frying pan couldn't stop, "Okay, then you guys continue frying, and I'll take them to clean up the other things, and we'll talk later."

"Fuck!"

"Then you go to sleep first, I will watch over." The white man in the passenger cab looked towards Li Zhaofeng's house.

After eating two salty foods, Luke was full and drank a glass of milk to smooth it out, "Is Will going home?"

Until then, though, keep father and brother safe.

"what happened?"

Luke was a little more vigilant. No one dared to provoke him in Los Angeles, but it was different in New York. If someone wanted to deal with him, this was really a good time.

The ingredients are very simple, flour, eggs, vegetables.

The old man also saw the problem, "Zhao Nian, what's going on?"

This is lapd's system, not NYPD. "

Just like now, when the crash happened, and no one could be found, I was even more anxious.

The white man in the co-pilot put away the camera, "How long are we going to watch tonight? Is anyone changing shift?"

The little fat man couldn't move his eyes from the side, and he wished he could eat right away.

Li Zhaofeng helped smooth things over, "It's okay, the brothers met yesterday."

"Who knows?"

The three of Luke and his son got out of the car and returned home talking and laughing.

After eating and clearing away the dishes, Li Zhaonian and Yao Xin drove away.

"grandfather."

As a human being, Luke II has already understood that success is mostly standing on the shoulders of giants, and giants are often your parents. It is definitely a safe shortcut to cultivate deeply in the field where your parents work.

He has such a big face and let me pick it up.

The year before last, Luke was a grumpy, moody 'bad boy', but this year he is too sensible, not only successful in his career, but also mature in his dealings with others, like a man.

The man in the cab parked the car not far away, "These Chinese seem to be celebrating the 'Spring Festival', which is a bit like Christmas."

The man in the co-pilot took out his mobile phone and glanced at the screen, "Boss, what are your orders?"

He must not be happy to have him detained in a restaurant just after graduating from college.

"A little bit.

Unlike Los Angeles, home prices in the New York suburbs are lower than in the city center.

"No, don't touch your hands, it will be fine soon." The old lady waved her hand.

Even if it fails, and I have no thoughts in my heart, I will naturally take over the restaurant willingly. "

Salty food is a traditional northern snack, also known as Tan Pian Pian.

"Okay." Luke hasn't let it go for many years.

Today's New Year's Eve, maybe I went directly to your grandparents' house. Li Zhaofeng shook his head, his nephew has already graduated from university, so he can't care too much.

The three walked into the house, and an old man in his seventies came out of the kitchen and said with a smile, "Luke and Jack are back, come in quickly."

The little fat man lay on the back seat and slapped his forehead, "I forgot to set off the fireworks."

The car started slowly and drove away towards the distance.

The little fat man sat opposite Luke, "What are you eating?"

"grandmother."

"Where are you?"

Will took over his own restaurant. With the foundation laid by his parents, it is the best way to develop and expand the restaurant while he is young and energetic and has ideas.

Li Zhaonian could only tell the truth and lie, "I quarreled with that kid. He hid at a friend's house and refused to come back."

The little fat man picked up a piece of salty food, wrapped it in bacon and ham, and ate it with big mouthfuls.

The case of those two gangs was finally handed over to the FBI, and the FBI closed it. Even if they took revenge, they should not find themselves.

The more Li Zhaonian thought about it, the more angry he became, and he didn't know how to tell his parents.

Luke and Jack took the initiative to call for someone.

"Om..."

The old man sullenly said, "Zhao Nian, you are already in your 40s, why are you still so unstable.

In fact, Luke also agrees with his uncle Li Zhaonian. Young people are big-hearted and always think that they can make a career, but in fact, very few succeed. Even if they succeed, they mostly rely on the relationship of their parents.

The wine is good wine, and the food is good food, but everyone has their own concerns, and the New Year's Eve dinner is not enjoyable.

In the afternoon, Li Zhaonian and his wife also came and brought a lot of ingredients.

protect yourself. "

A white man was sitting in the passenger cab of a black Citroen, taking pictures with a camera.

The old man saw that there were only the two of them, "Where's Will?"

As soon as he entered the yard, the little fat man started yelling.

The little fat man just glanced at it, and immediately swallowed, his appetite came up.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Luke took the little fat man out to set off the cannon.

"Luke and Jack are here, why did he go to his friend's house?" The old man was a little unhappy.

"It seems... that's the only way to go." Li Zhaofeng nodded. He knew that his younger brother couldn't control it anymore. Instead of fighting against each other, it's better to discuss it.

Luke pinched his head habitually, signaling that he was promising.

Only the little fat man didn't care and opened his mouth to eat.

The restaurant is its own property anyway, and your uncle can teach him by hand, which is better than outside. "

The old man took out two bottles of Moutai and said with a smile, "I bought these a few years ago. I'm happy today. Let's drink it."

Li Zhaofeng warned, "New York is indeed drier than Los Angeles, so drink more water."

As the evening approached, preparations for the New Year's Eve dinner began.

Fortunately, New York is relatively lenient in the inspection of drunk driving, otherwise the whole family will be in the same pot.

Will was not very happy, and wanted to make his own way. "

The old lady still made a phone call, but she didn't get through.

Will is also a stubborn kid, and this is not the first time he has run away from home.

It's also a worry. "

The more he insisted, the more disgusted he felt. "

"Go."

This is a big Chinese New Year, what's wrong with the child. "

Tomorrow Zhaonian and I will go to a friend's house to pick him up. "

A deep voice came from the phone, "Leave immediately."

There is an oil pan in the kitchen, and the old man and the old lady are frying new year's meatballs, tofu, hairtail, etc.

Li Zhaofeng smiled and said, "Just in time for dinner."

"I'm hungry, I need something to eat first." The driver opened the car cabinet and took out a bag of bread, "Do you want some?"

Luke also secretly praised, this is the taste of Chinese New Year.

The little fat man was also full, "When shall we go to grandma's house?"

The little fat man loves to eat, but he is also picky eater, especially when he just wakes up in the morning and has no appetite. When he encounters something he doesn't like, he is also perfunctory.

Li Zhaofeng said, "Tomorrow, everyone is not in the mood today."

"Okay, let's eat first." The old man was still a little unhappy.

Yao Xin said, "Dad, I don't blame Zhao Nian, Will is also stubborn.

As the driver started the car, he asked, "What's wrong? Have we been found?"

As expected of a professional cook, this New Year's Eve dinner is delicious and delicious.

Your grandparents live in the suburbs, which are more spacious than ours. "

"grandmother."

"Will didn't go to a good university. Your uncle is worried that he will be useless for a few years, so he might as well learn cooking earlier.

Could it be the professor?
He wanted him in Los Angeles, so he ran to New York to take revenge?
If this is the case, it is a good opportunity to arrest him.

I have to say that Li Zhaofeng really put in some effort to receive his two sons.

The old lady also took one and handed it to Luke.

Li Zhaonian is the chef, and he has already prepared the ingredients in advance, including vegetables, seafood, and meat.

This bastard is really worrying.

"I called him, Will listened to me the most." The old lady took out her mobile phone.

Li Zhaonian was also worried, he didn't know where the bastard was, where could he pick him up?

But Luke also knows that it is not easy for young people to understand this truth. Some roads have to be walked by themselves.

Li's family is from the north, making dumplings is essential.

"Brother, I see there are fireworks in the garage, let's set off fireworks after eating."

After seven o'clock in the evening, the dumplings are finished and the dishes are ready.

"Does Will and Uncle have other conflicts?" Luke felt that what happened last night should not cause such a big gap between the father and son, and the quarrel last night might just be the fuse.

There was an extra pair of eyes in the shadow on the side of the house, and Luke walked out slowly, with a puzzled look on his face.

"OK, I'll try."

"Tell me tomorrow morning."

"You are the boss!"

　I have something to update early today
