North America’s toughest police: starting with the Los Angeles Patrol

Early in the morning, Locke went out with his grandfather Jester for horseback riding. Like Jester, he was dressed in cowboy style and wore a cowboy hat.

The air on the farm in the early morning was fresh, and the grass was humid, but there was still a faint smell of cow dung in the air.

The sky was blue, and the sun was rising slowly. It would be a good day today.

Jester had a Winchester M1894 lever rifle on his horse and a Smith & Wesson Model 686 on his waist.

Locke also chose a lever rifle, but it was a more modern Marlin 1895 Trapper lever rifle. He didn’t have a gun on his waist, and he felt uncomfortable.

He also told Jester about his newly acquired custom Colt Python revolver, and wanted to give it to his grandfather.

But Jester refused after knowing the origin of the gun.

He also taught Locke that it was a legacy from the legendary detective, and he should not give it to him, and reminded him to visit the widow of Detective Henry Morgan when he had time.

Locke nodded and kept it in mind, and planned to take time to visit Grandma Nancy after returning to Los Angeles.

Compared to Jester who was strolling leisurely on horseback, Locke was a little restrained, but he could still control the sturdy American standard horse under his crotch well.

Farther away, Henry had already led the cowboys on the farm to start today’s work.

The farm did not change at all because of the huge windfall last night.

Jester looked at Locke’s horse riding skills and shook his head. He couldn’t understand this. Locke grew up on a farm and grew up on horseback, but his riding skills could not be improved to proficiency.

“It seems that you can’t become a real cowboy in the end…”

After complaining, Jester continued to ask about Locke and their family’s recent situation.

After Locke talked about several recent cases, he emphasized the preparations for his mother’s law firm. He knew that his grandfather wanted to know this.

Marian’s law firm is already progressing steadily and is recruiting people. Her former subordinates in Ham Law Firm will follow her to the new law firm.

With the mediation of Love Hogwarts, Marian broke up with Ham Law Firm amicably this time.

After being selected as a director of the California Bar Association this time, the recruitment of lawyers will be accelerated.

The law firm’s office has been selected and is being renovated. The office is also located on Wilshire Boulevard and is expected to be officially open as early as next month.

This time, Marian did not set up a law firm alone. She also invited her other best friend Nancy O’Hara to become a partner of the law firm.

Nancy O’Hara graduated from Harvard Law School, but she is mainly responsible for criminal prosecution. She is more well-known in the Los Angeles judicial circle than Marian because she has an ex-husband who once served as the Attorney General of Los Angeles County.

Marian’s relationship with Nancy O’Hara is closer than that with Anna Davis. They are real best friends.

However, friendship is friendship. This time, in order to persuade Nancy O’Hara to start a business together, Marian directly gave 20% investment shares, mainly because of her advantages in criminal prosecution.

Jester said with a look of relief: “Marian has finally come to this step, Locke, all this comes from you…”

“We are family!” Locke said calmly, and then continued to talk about this time when Marian and Li Bo took the Greenberg family’s business jet to San Francisco to attend the California Bar Association’s board of directors meeting and the Greenberg family held a party for Marian.

Jester said with a serious face: “Marian called me, and the Greenberg family has officially confirmed your relationship with Miss Greenberg. Locke, in fact, you should invite Miss Greenberg to come with you when you come to Lebec this time!”

Locke thought about it, and it seemed that he should indeed ask Daisy Greenberg to come with him to spend the weekend.

He didn’t invite Daisy because he didn’t want to contact strangers.

He shrugged and said, “Next time!”

When Locke told Jett about the fight and injury, Jester’s reaction was as expected. Not only was he not worried, but he was very happy and laughed.

“I said, no matter what, Jett has the blood of the Locke family, how could he always be a nerd…”

After laughing, Jester felt very happy, but then he didn’t know what he was thinking, and his smile slowlySlowly retreat.

He turned his head and looked at Locke with a serious face, “Locke, I have an idea, do you think it’s feasible?”

Locke pulled the reins and asked, “What?”

Jester gently pinched the horse’s belly, and the horse stopped. He said seriously, “What do you think about letting Todd run for a senator?”

Locke was stunned. He had never considered asking his father to run for a senator.

He blurted out, “Congressman?”

Jester was stunned and laughed, “Of course, Los Angeles City Councilor or California State Councilor…”

Locke asked again, “Republican or Democratic?”

Jester hesitated and replied, “This needs to be discussed…”

According to the political map of the Locke family, it is obvious that Yi Jian should run for election as a Republican.

But California is a state controlled by the Democratic Party. Running for election as a Republican is simply a hellish difficulty.

Even Republican bigwigs like Sullivan Gray are restricted in California and can only focus most of their energy on the House of Representatives.

If they run as Democrats, the advantage will be even greater.

First of all, he is Chinese, and then there is the Greenberg family, a senior Democratic Party funder.

There are many examples of a family in the United States supporting both parties.

The Locke family, which runs a traditional livestock industry, can continue to support the Republican Party, but Li Bo, a Chinese elite in Los Angeles, can be a Democrat. He just married a wife from a Republican family.

Locke looked at Jester in amazement. He didn’t expect that a senior Republican like his grandfather could easily betray the Republican Party.

Obviously, everything is for the family!

The Locke family has developed to the current stage and is indeed qualified and needs to get involved in politics.

With their size, they naturally cannot invest in politicians like those aristocratic families, and can only fight on their own.

Locke weighed the feasibility of this matter in his mind. Not to mention, it seems that only his father in the whole family has the deepest understanding of American politics.

His Chinese identity has both disadvantages and advantages.

Their family will not lack campaign funds, and there is no lack of support from big figures behind them, so the probability of being elected is not zero.

However, Locke soon thought of something very important. He shook his head and said, “I think Todd might not agree. He has a special feeling for China. He is unlikely to speak ill of China just to run for a seat in Congress…”

In order to show their loyalty, Chinese American politicians often use the tactic of attacking their motherland.
