Seeing Marian like this, Locke was speechless. If Marian knew that he had picked up another 5 million today, she would be so upset.

Well, fortunately she didn’t say it, otherwise, it would definitely be confiscated.

Speaking of the two sums of money, both are related to Johnny Dyson. He is a good man. I must go to pay tribute to him when I have time.

Next, the Locke family sat at the dining table, enjoying the delicious gorilla pizza and five guys burgers, drinking iced American coffee, and Jet and Hannah were also allowed to drink coffee. The depressed mood of being trapped in the safe house slowly dissipated with the food.

Marian and Li Bo directly discussed the investment direction of the money, arguing whether to invest in funds or US bonds.

As for US stocks, both of them ignored it directly.

Jet took the pizza, with a tangled face, and finally invited Locke to play games with him later, taking the second step of brother reconciliation.

Hannah was eating the most classic cheeseburger of five guys while frowning and thinking about what to buy.

Locke watched all this with a smile on his face. Without the hidden danger of “doctor”, he felt relieved.

Thinking of today’s series of gains, he was even more happy.

This is my family.

A family should be together.

Next, he will fully prepare for the detective exam. With his current IQ, two weeks of preparation will basically be enough.

The reason why he did not accept the transfer from Parker Center was that he was already a little unhappy with Parker Center in his heart and did not want to eat food that was given out of pity.

In addition to the purpose of reward, this transfer should also take into account his poor academic performance and fear that he would not be able to pass the detective exam.

He is already a top student now, why should he use the back door to be recommended.

He will pass the detective exam with his real talents and make his resume impeccable.

There is also research on pharmaceuticals. After all, the poison needles left by Spike are limited, and he has to prepare new pharmaceuticals as soon as possible.

He will consult Jennifer Gray to see how to purchase a batch of experimental equipment and build his own laboratory.

With this unexpected fortune from Johnny Dyson, it should be more than enough to build a pharmaceutical laboratory.

Just as Locke was looking forward to the future, his cell phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Victor Mendes calling.

Uh, so fast?

Locke subconsciously thought that the Ford car dealer had delivered the latest Raptor he ordered in the morning, “Victor, has the car arrived?”

Victor Mendes was startled and replied: “Uh, the Hellcat arrived yesterday. Sarah should have told you yesterday!”

Locke immediately realized that Victor was not looking for him because of the Raptor, and hurriedly said: “I ordered a latest Raptor today, which will be sent directly to the repair shop for modification. I thought the dealer delivered the car so quickly. Well, what’s the matter?”

Victor Mendes was silent for two seconds and said: “There is news from Sam that Martin notified everyone that he will return to Los Angeles tonight to cause trouble for us, and he is already asking people to prepare weapons and ammunition…”

Locke raised his eyebrows and said in astonishment: “Henry Cavill, the owner of Cavill Construction Company, is now being sued by the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) for tax evasion and bribery. Why would he let the Smith family make trouble at this time…”

Locke had not yet conveyed the information that his uncle Glenn told him the day before to the Mendes brothers and sisters, so he took this opportunity to tell them about the problems Henry Cavill would face.

After hearing this, Victor Mendes was even more awed by Locke’s background. He could mobilize the IRS vampires to help him. Henry Cavill must be in big trouble this time.

He wondered, “Did Sam hear it wrong…”

Locke thought of a possibility and said, “Whether he heard it right or not, I’ll go over now…”

Seeing him hang up the phone, Marian asked, “What happened?”

Locke told the Mendes brothers and sisters that they might be attacked by the gangsters raised by Henry Cavill tonight.

After hearing this, Marian frowned and said, “The case of the parking lot of the Mendes repair shop seems to be scheduled for two weeks later. According to the evidence of bribery disclosed by the IRS and the difficulties of Cavill Construction Company, we will definitely win this lawsuit. How could Henry Cavill make such a mistake at this time?”

After listening to the conversation between Locke and Marian, Li Bo blurted out a sentence in Chinese, “A trapped beast still fights, killing a chicken to scare the monkey…”

Marian turned her head and asked, “What does it mean?”

Locke just thought of this and explained, “A trapped beast still fights. It means that when a lion faces a desperate situation, it will show its ferocious and powerful side, so that those beasts who want to take advantage of it will be afraid and dare not act rashly!”

Li Bo also explained, “Killing a chicken to scare the monkey, in fact, it is a bigThe general meaning is the same. When a lion finds a group of monkeys glaring at him, he kills a chicken to scare off the monkeys…”

Marianne suddenly realized and exclaimed: “Amazing Chinese culture. So, the Mendes siblings were regarded as the chicken that was killed by Henry Cavill! Awesome, he is indeed a big shot who transformed from a street gangster to the boss of a construction company, and he knows the law of the jungle very well! ”

Cavill Construction Company was sued by the IRS and is facing a crisis. There should be many companies that want to swallow it up.

Therefore, the more difficult the situation is, the more Henry Cavill will show his hideousness to deter the scavengers who covet his interests.

As for killing the Mendes siblings, there will naturally be people from the Smith family to take the blame, and it will not even affect the lawsuit he faces.

Perhaps, he just wants people to know that he did it.

He has not fallen yet, and if he is forced, he can turn the table over and kill people.

A pair of low-level siblings with no background and no strength dare to take advantage of others at this time?

“I promised them that I would help them…”

Locke took another piece of pizza and prepared to get up and leave. This time he would not give the scumbags a chance to enter the police station.

Li Bo asked: “Do you want your gun back?”

Locke bit the pizza and revealed the holster behind his waist, “No, I brought my gun back! ”

When he was awarded the medal yesterday, he didn’t bring his self-purchased Glock G18 with him. Today, when he picked up the Remington M700P, he took it back with him.

“Locke…”

Locke turned his head and Marian looked at him seriously, “You are on administrative leave, you have no law enforcement power! And you are under the protection of a protection order, what reason do you have to go to the Mendes repair shop? More importantly, the castle law of the Mendes repair shop is not suitable for you, you are not the owner. Don’t forget that you have to go to court next week? If you go there tonight and kill someone, it will seriously affect the judge and jury’s perception of you…”

“…”

Marian is worthy of being a lawyer. After a few words, Locke was stunned.

He asked: “What should I do?”

Marian asked: “Can’t I call the police? ”

Locke shook his head and replied: “Last time Glenn mentioned that a superintendent in the West Canyon Police Department was bribed by Henry Cavill. The IRS’s review of the LAPD has not yet ended, so the superintendent has not yet been dismissed or prosecuted. Since Henry Cavill dared to arrange a killer, the police department should also have an arrangement…”

Marianne was no longer surprised by this kind of shady dealings. She hesitated for a moment, “I’ll call Anna to see if she has any solution…”

Locke suddenly thought of someone, “Wait, don’t call yet…”
