Chapter 144 Invitation

Dahlia was lying on the dining table flipping through magazines, and a few people were dining in the restaurant.

The familiar scene in front of him made him stunned for a moment, which was almost exactly the same as the night when he had a conflict with the rabbit's subordinate Orek.

Ethan shook his head and smiled, opened the glass door and walked in.

Dalia concentrated on looking at the magazine in her hand. She didn't notice the person coming until after Ethan sat down, and immediately smiled.

"good evening."

"Give me a beer, what are you looking at?"

Dahlia turned around and brought him a bottle of Heineken, then turned the magazine upside down, and there were some landscape photos on it.

Looking at the introduction, they are some beautiful but inaccessible places in Pennsylvania, suitable for people with an adventurous spirit to travel.

"This is my destination."

Dahlia lay on the dining table and clicked a photo on it with her finger.

In the deep mountains, there are tall and thick trees, which look extremely magnificent under the afterglow of the setting sun.

Ethan took a sip of beer, "Camping?"

Dalia nodded and continued to show him the photo above.

"Yeah, I go camping a few times a year."

"This is a destination that has been decided before. You can fully enjoy the nature. Unlike popular tourist spots, there are people everywhere."

Ethan nodded his head with lingering fear. He once tried to hold his urine for several hours on the way to the mountain.

After that personal mountain climbing, he will never choose to visit popular tourist attractions during holidays.

He asked curiously:

"Are you alone?"

Dahlia rested her chin with her hands and said in a tangled voice:
"I originally planned to be with my friends, but she had something to do temporarily, so I had to cancel the trip."

"But my vacation has already been applied for, and the plan has been set, so I will continue to go."

Sometimes Ethan admired the adventurous spirit of some of them. One or two of them carried a big backpack and went to the deep mountains and old forests, looking for a journey of harmony between man and nature.

Of course, among these, there are also many people who are completely integrated with nature.

Ethan picked up the magazine. This is a photo taken by the previous campers. The scenery is really beautiful.

He lit a cigarette and said casually:

"Then you have to pay attention to safety."

Dahlia waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, there will still be some campers in that place, so don't worry about safety."

Seeing that Ethan was still flipping through the magazine, Dalia's eyes lit up, and she put her hands on her chin.

"How about you come with me?"

Ethan pointed himself with a finger, and said in surprise:
"Me? I've never been camping."

Hearing him say this made Dahlia even more excited.

"It's very interesting. If you think about it, in a place isolated from the world, no one can contact you, and you get rid of the constraints of the world."

"Enjoy your own time in the magnificent nature."

Ethan was a little moved, but still shrugged his shoulders, "Sounds like a horror movie."

"Please, come play with me."

Seeing Ethan's interest, Dalia took his hand and whispered, "I will bring Victoria's Secret with me then."

Ethan rubbed his beard stubble and hesitated, "How many days do you plan to go?"

"Two days, we will leave in the morning of the day after tomorrow."

Dahlia struck while the iron was hot, and after looking at the people in the restaurant, she leaned close to Ethan's ear and whispered, "How about I let you try it later?"

Ethan took a deep breath on his cigarette, and asked quickly:
"What do I need to prepare?"

Dahlia bit her lip and laughed, "I have all the outdoor equipment. I can wear short sleeves in the weather now, but you still need to prepare a jacket. The temperature difference between day and night in the mountains is huge."

"no problem."

This is a trivial matter. When you patrol tomorrow, just go to the outdoor supply store and buy a set.

At this time, the last customer in the restaurant also left, Dahlia simply had a drink with Ethan, and continued to tell Ethan some interesting things about camping.

But Ethan lost the intention to listen, and his eyes wandered away from her.

Dalia understood instantly. She bit the beer bottle, then turned and walked to the operating room inside, unbuttoning her apron as she walked.

"Stop, don't take off your apron."

Seeing that there was no one outside, Ethan pushed hard, jumped over the dining table, and walked into the operating room with Dalia in his arms.

The next morning, Ethan parked the police car in front of the Valley Hotel, and Hood also came to the hotel at this time, and the two walked up the stairs together.

Ethan knocked on the door with his fingers, and the door was quickly opened by Jason.

He turned around and sat on the bed, looking at the two people in uniform in front of him.

Ethan looked around the room, this guy had already packed his things, and there was a travel bag at the end of the bed.

Hood took out an old watch from his pocket, weighed it a few times, and handed it to Jason.

"I took this from your father when I buried him."

Jason took the silver watch and stroked the glass dial with a complicated expression.

Hood continued: "I don't know why I kept it at the time. I always feel that it is not good to throw it away. Now you take it."

Jason looked at his watch carefully. Since he graduated from high school, he left his father and has been hanging around outside.

It wasn't until his life was threatened that he thought of the father he hadn't seen for a long time.

Unexpectedly, they finally met in this way.

Jason carefully put the watch into his pocket, raised his head and said to Hood seriously:
"Thank you"

"You're welcome, this is what I should do."

After Hood handed over the watch that had been by his side for a long time to Jason, he also let go of a big stone in his heart, as if he had fulfilled a kind of entrustment.

He glanced at Jason and continued, "The ten o'clock train, I'll take you there later."

"After getting on the train, you follow the train all the way north, directly to Canada. You shouldn't mess up such a simple thing, right?"

Jason sneered a few times, "Okay, I see, of course I won't mess it up."

"What about you? Do you intend to continue like this?"

Hood shook his head and spread his hands, "I don't know, maybe one day in the future, I will board a train of my own and leave here."

Jason rubbed his hands and looked at Ethan, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to deceive you. You know, I'm living alone now, and I need some tricks."

"It's okay, as long as you remember what I said to Jaber."

Ethan came here just to make a fool of himself, he leaned against the wall and said, "After getting on the train, don't look back, don't forget, Brantly is still looking for you."

Jason nodded quickly, he stood up and shook hands with Hood and Ethan respectively.

"Thank you again, don't worry, you won't see me again in the future."

Ethan stood on the side of the road, watching Hood's blue pickup truck drifting away, he waved his hand and got into the police car.
