New York University Medical Center.

"Security, this is the suspect suspected of attacking the ICU just now, please control it first, we have called the police, and the police will come soon. ”

Without waiting for Esther to call for help, Adam immediately explained.

If you don't announce it beforehand, God knows what the security guards will choose.

And he was going to hand over Estor to the security guards at once, who would then hand him over to the police.

There are not too many virgins in American dramas, you can see the light of Wei Guangzheng everywhere, and it is a bullet trial of justice at every turn, although Adam is an old white, he should not come up and judge him, but he doesn't want to take any risks.

Looking at Esther's petite body, the security guards looked at each other.

"Help~!"

Seeing that he couldn't break free at all, Esther finally reacted, looked at the security guards pitifully, and shouted.

This appearance is full of deception, if it weren't for Adam's justice at a glance, the security guards probably couldn't help but rush up to rescue Esther.

Adam's heart moved, and he immediately pointed out the key: "Please be careful, the suspect is extremely dangerous!"

"Be careful!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the security guards immediately changed, and under the reminder of the captain, two people, one left and one right, walked over cautiously, and restrained Esther's left and right arms respectively.

In the United States, everything is business!

Whether it's a security guard or a policeman, it's just a profession that makes money to support the family, and it's completely different from the Dongguo side.

Their primary goal is to protect their own personal safety, and only then do they rescue hostages and fight criminals.

There is an interesting joke about the robbers taking hostages, and the police killed the hostages first for their own absolute safety and to stop the robbers.

Of course, this is an extreme situation, but the essence of the problem that can be reflected is frightening.

Adam's reminder of how petite Esther was and how Adam might be bullying the little girl was immediately left behind by the security guards.

Your own safety is the most important thing!

Control it first and then talk about the rest!

"Dad~!"

Esther cried out to John, who was let go by Adam but fell silent.

"Don't worry. ”

John said with a complicated expression: "When the police come, things will be clarified, and I will sue them then, Esther, you calm down first." ”

The police arrived quickly and with amazing efficiency.

It is the best private hospital in New York, and it pays ample taxes, and the salaries and benefits of the police depend on the taxes paid by the hospital, so it has a large police force patrolling the neighborhood around the clock.

Other areas, such as Brooklyn, where African-Americans are concentrated, have a lack of tax revenues and fewer police supporters, and most of them are concentrated in relatively affluent areas.

Without police patrols, law and order will naturally be poor, the rich will move out, the tax revenue provided will be reduced, and the police will become more and more unable to support them, and law and order will continue to deteriorate, forming a vicious circle.

So much so that in the absolute center of the multi-faceted American drama universe like New York, many areas are rampant with robbers, and they can't go out at night.

Phoebe was a big guy on the street back then, and she robbed Rose, can you imagine?

The hospital's security room.

“...... That's the way it is. ”

Adam and Leonard tell everything they know and offer advice to imprison Esther first and wait for the boy Danny to wake up and identify him.

The attitude of the police, as a sample of a TV station interview, said that 70% of the people feel that the police are conscientious and friendly.

Adam is one of the 70 percent.

"Mr. Coleman?"

Police looked at John again.

"Daddy~"

Esther shouted again.

"I reserve the right to sue after the fact. ”

Feeling safe, John relented and became angry at Adam's previous attitude.

"Whatever you want!"

Adam shrugged.

On one side is Coleman, who is in constant trouble and has completely opposite attitudes as husband and wife, and on the other side is Leonard, who is innocent, and Adam, who is a mediocre, famous, and outstanding student of Columbia.

Even if you go to court, it's clear who the jury and judge are willing to believe.

In the end, the police followed Adam's advice and temporarily imprisoned Esther in the security room, accompanied by a soft-hearted John.

After all, Esther is a little girl, and it is not appropriate to take it directly to the police station without conclusive evidence.

John's mother, who had been hiding aside after the incident, put her arms around Max, a deaf and mute girl who dared not tell the truth again, and went back to rest first.

"Hey, you're not leaving?"

A female police detective looked in amazement at Adam and Leonard, who were sitting not far away, staring at the security room.

"Not very reassuring. ”

Adam laughed: "This little girl is too weird and terrifying, I have good physical strength, help keep an eye on it to make sure she doesn't run away suddenly, or run to the ICU to kill her mouth." ”

Although the tone is joking, it is really something that can no longer be true.

If she runs away, Adam will have no sleep.

Deceptive, experienced, ruthless, and vindictive, even if Adam can bear it, Adam's friends will definitely not be able to bear it.

It was a nightmare that Adam could not tolerate.

"Good physical strength~"

The female detective smiled playfully, her focus was obviously crooked, and she was not in a hurry to leave, so she simply replaced the guard's colleague and stayed to chat with Adam.

Adam had long been accustomed to this situation, and he chatted with this female police detective who looked ordinary but was quite good.

Leonard, who was ignored on the side, admired and admired his face, and sighed that 'a good man should be like this'.

in the security room.

Esther curled up and wept.

John stood in the distance, his expression was complicated, and as he watched, he once again suppressed the doubt and vigilance in his heart, and couldn't help but walk to Esther's side and sit down, holding Esther in his arms.

"Dad, I'm so scared. ”

Esther made a final effort: "Shall we go home?"

"Don't be afraid. ”

John reassured, "Everything will be fine. ”

"Baba, I love you. ”

Esther looked up at John with teary eyes.

"I love you too. ”

John responded, but then his eyes widened, and he said incredulously, "Aster, what are you doing?"

At this time, he found out that Esther was treating him as 'Thanos', and he kept shouting that he was actually 'Thanos' instead of his father, and she was naturally Thanos's favorite, the goddess of death.

John was so confused that Adam wanted to ask Juno for a diagnosis, but he really didn't mean that, so he naturally refused in horror.

"Woo ......"

Esther immediately buried her head and wept, her eyes covered by her arms full of devastating resentment, and when John leaned over again to put her arms around her to comfort her, she pulled out a pen that she had secretly hidden from the sole of her shoe and plunged it into John's chest.

"Ah!!h

John screamed.

Esther pushed John to the ground, and the movements of his hands kept plunging the pen into John's chest.

When Adam and the female detective heard the movement and rushed in, they saw Esther lying next to John, crying, "Daddy, daddy~ save my daddy!"

John's chest was already stained red and dying, his eyes were full of horror and regret, but he couldn't say a word......
