Chapter 8 Fox Fake
The grocery store owner is a big man with a big waist and a big waist. Before Evan entered the store, he stood at the door of the store, silently following the scene of the bully young man pestering the pure girl. He only returned to the store when he saw the girl escape.
Evan walked into the store, and there were a wide range of goods, but he couldn't even look at it. He came directly to the store owner and greeted through the counter: "Hi, BOSS!"
The boss glanced at Evan, and a business smile filled with money-free smile on his face and said, "Hi, guys, what do you want to buy? Whether it is a toilet squeezing or a faucet twisting, I have it here, it is cheap and beautiful, and it is always good."
"I'm so sorry, boss, my house is good both for toilets and faucets," the enthusiasm of the shop owner suddenly cooled down, and it was obvious to the naked eye. Evan changed his tone and took out a dark green small head from his trouser leg pocket. Alexander Hamilton (note: face value 10) and put it on the counter. "But if you can answer a few questions from me, it's yours."
The boss looked at Evan with a weird look, pinched the banknotes with his thick fingers, and shook them in his ear. The brand new banknotes made a beautiful sound. He said, "I'm lucky today. It seems that God has not forgotten my daily prayers."
"You ask, Master, I know everything and say everything."
"Very good, um..."
"Call me Jason, Master."
"Okay, Jason." Evan wanted to get it done quickly. He always felt that Jason's smile made people feel uncomfortable, so he asked directly: "How many of those two people do you know just now?"
Jason's eyes rolled when he heard this, and immediately realized that the one in front of him was the purpose of the rich young man. I said that the clothes he looked so familiar with were not the uniform of the same school as Audrey.
With a clear mind, Jason fulfilled his promise and replied, "One of them, one is Tom and the other is Jerry, who are wandering around the streets, making a living by lending money and leaves."
Evan nodded, almost the same as his guess, "Where is their boss?"
Jason expressed his embarrassment and said, "I don't know much about this. I'm just an ordinary grocery store owner..."
Evan knew that Jason was lying at first sight, but he didn't care, but changed his question, "Tell me about that girl."
"What do you want to know? By the way, you are from the same school, why not?"
Evan waved his hand and interrupted, "It has nothing to do with you, Jason, for Alexander Hamilton's sake, tell me what you know."
"Well, today, you are God's illegitimate child." Jason shrugged, "The girl is Audrey, you must have known this."
"Her house is nearby, and the house number 1256 is the one."
"Audrey is a good girl. She is not only beautiful, but also very capable and brave. She can resist when she meets bad guys. However, she is a girl after all, and she can't compare to her strength..."
"Their family is an immigrant, from a country called the Netherlands in Europe. Well, it happened about three months ago. Do you know where the Netherlands is?"
"Well, when I didn't ask." Jason raised his hands, feeling a little sad that his question was not responded to. "Well, her father seemed to be Joseph, Joseph Ruston, if I remember correctly. He looked decent, dressed in a spotless manner, as if he worked in a bank, but unfortunately, he was a little careless. I guess he still doesn't know who his daughter met."
As he spoke, Jason stopped talking.
"That's all?"
Jason spread his hands and smiled, "You know, their family has only been here for a while..."
Evan asked with a frown: "There are only two fathers and daughters in her family? Where is the hostess?"
Jason promised: "That's right, just father and daughter didn't even invite maids. Audrey often went to buy ingredients by herself. Guaranteed God, this is the fact."
Evan's heart was turbulent when he heard this. Audrey's mother was not here. She immigrated to the United States with her father. Why is this happening? In his world, her parents should have divorced. She lives with her mother and has a bad relationship with her father because her father supports **. But in this world she is not with her mother. With her relationship with her mother, she cannot betray her mother. Could it be...
Seeing Evan silent for a long time, Jason asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
Evan shook his head, took out a piece of Abraham Lincoln ($5) from his pocket and put it in front of Jason, "Thank you, Jason, this is what you deserve."
After saying that, Evan turned around and went out. As he was about to leave the store, Jason said to his back, "Hey, young man, if you are bold enough to taste the wine, you can try it at Charlie's Bar."
Evan's rhythm was not at all chaotic, and he raised his empty right hand without looking back and swung his left and right, saying, "Thank you, Jason, but, you know, I'm still a minor and can't get into the bar."
Walking out of the grocery store, Evan carried his backpack on his shoulders. He scratched his head and thought, as the gangster, who should I look for as the governor?
At this time, a passerby passed by. Evan stopped him and asked, "Sir, how can the police station go?"
Twenty minutes later, Evan appeared at the Justice Building and Police Department headquarters in southern Sacramento.
In the director's office, Director Clarence Wells was quietly waiting for the arrival of off-get off work time while cleaning the glasses with a cloth.
Bang bang bang bang!
The knock sounded, and before Clarence could speak, Joe, his assistant, opened the door and broke in.
Clarence criticized unhappily: "Joe, please be careful of etiquette. You are a policeman and you should know the rules and politeness."
"I've been taught, Director Wells." Qiao said one thing, but in fact he did another thing, "There is a case here that requires your opinion."
"Tell me..." Clarence put on black-framed glasses.
“A Sacramento High School student came to report the case and said he was harassed by two underworlds.”
"Hmm?" Clarence looked at Joe squintly, "You'd better explain clearly before I get angry. When will such a small thing be handled?"
Qiao said in a humble and arrogant manner: "The student said his name is Evan Warren."
"I'm going to call him his name," Clarence paused and changed his words: "Well, what's his name?"
"Evan Warren!"
"Which Warren?"
"The Warren you think!"
"What are you waiting for? Please come in." Clarence reminded him while correcting his clothes, "Joe, be polite!"
"OK."
After a while, Evan walked into the director's office with his schoolbag and had a cordial but unknown conversation with Director Clarence.
Half an hour later, after get off work time came, Director Clarence and Evan walked out of the judicial building talking and laughing. The Director took Evan home with his car. On the way, the Ford sedan stayed in a bar called Charlie for about ten minutes.
Before nightfall, Evan returned to his residence.
That night, Tom and Jerry were beaten by their boss for ten minutes. After receiving a solemn warning and a thousand dollars in cash, the two boarded the bus to San Francisco.
The next day, in front of Class 10-A, Evan leaned against the wall with his arms folded in his arms.
At 7:30, "Princess" Audrey came late.
"Hi, good morning, gentleman, what are you doing here? Wait, what are you pulling me?"
"Shut up, princess, if you are injured, you should see a doctor."
“…How did you know?”
