By the time she went downstairs, Lady Marilyn was already busy in the kitchen. When she saw Zongheng www.biquge.info, she immediately showed a warm smile and asked, "You woke up so early!" Did you sleep well last night? “

How is it possible to sleep well? When he thought of the dirty panties that he stuffed under the pillow, Zongheng felt that his lower body was cold and wet, as if he hadn't wiped anything clean.

Zongheng's silence was understood by Marilyn as shyness. She said gently, "That room turned out to be Lydia's brother Ness's. Although I have always tidied up, the mattress is still the same old mattress from many years ago. If you don't feel well, you can swap it out. ”

"No, you don't! Thank you. Zongheng hurriedly said.

After a moment's hesitation, he asked, "Lydia once said that she has a younger sister, Hannah, who is a Ph.D. student at the University of Chicago. But she never mentioned Ness. Where's Ness? ”

"Really? She never mentioned Ness...... "Marilyn lost her mind.

It took a while for her to come to her senses and reply, "Ness works at NASA now." ”

"Nasa?" Zongheng had never heard of this word, and he had a questioning face.

Marilyn remembered what Lydia had told her and James alone last night, and quickly explained, "I'm sorry! I forgot about your amnesia. NASA is an acronym for National Aeronautics and Space Administration. ”

Zongheng smacked the word in his mouth and roughly understood what it meant. He asked, "So, Ness is an astronaut?" ”

"Oh! No! He is an astronomer at NASA. ”

"Oh......" Zongheng remembered the poster that had been plastered on the ceiling of the room. Obviously, Ness didn't quite live up to his ideals.

He looked around and asked, "Where's Lydia?" ”

"Probably still sleeping, right?" Marilyn said as she fried the eggs.

No way? Zonghengxin said. She should have been up early.

As if God wanted to help Zongheng confirm his idea, it didn't take long for Zongheng to see Lydia walk in through the door.

She was wearing a short tracksuit, sweating profusely, and the soaked clothes clung to her body, outlining her beautiful figure in detail.

Zongheng's gaze unconsciously fell on Lydia's chest. He still remembered the soft, warm touch and warm smell of his body when Lydia hugged him last night. Just thinking about it made his body react immediately. Zongheng hurriedly clamped his legs so as not to be seen.

"Where have you been?" Marilyn asked the obvious question

Lydia wiped her sweat and replied, "I ran around the lake twice. I stopped by Dr. Woolf's house for a visit. ”

"How? Is Jack at home? ”

"Jack?! Oh! No! I'm going to find Lady Jennifer. ”

"Didn't see Jack?"

"That's right! Mrs. Jennifer said that Jack was out last night and that there seemed to be some case. I spoke to Mrs. Jennifer about Nemo, and she promised to help Nemo arrange an emergency check-up this morning. ”

"So, you're going out this morning? Do you want to come back for dinner at noon? Marilyn placed two plates of breakfast in front of Lydia and Zongheng.

Lydia picked up a slice of bacon and said, "The inspection will take a long time, and I won't be back." ”

……

Dr. Jennifer Woolf is a middle-aged woman with a serious expression. When Zongheng and Lydia arrived at the hospital at the agreed time, she was already waiting at the door.

Lydia introduced: "This is Nemo, a relative from China that I told you. He doesn't speak English yet......"

Two women, an old man and a young woman, talked for a while at the entrance of the hospital, and then led Zongheng inside.

Zongheng can only barely understand a few commonly used English words, and of course he can't understand what the two are saying. He only knew that when the two were talking, their eyes fell on him from time to time, and the content of the conversation was obviously related to him.

Zongheng asked, "What did you say to Dr. Woolf?" ”

"I told her that you are a distant relative of our family in China. Because both parents died, there were no other guardians in China, so they were brought to the United States to live with our family temporarily. ”

"Why do you say that? Can't Dr. Woolf be trusted? ”

"Of course not!" Lydia said, "It's just that your origin is too complicated to explain, and I want to make it as little trouble as possible." What's more, the smuggling syndicate that attacked you at the hospital last time is likely still looking for you. As for your identity, the fewer people know about the appointment. Nemo, my father will find you a teacher to tutor you in English, but you must be careful not to reveal the origin of your statement. There's no better place in Midwood than in New York, where there's no police officer at the door to protect you at all times. For your own safety and the safety of others, be careful! ”

Zongheng nodded solemnly in agreement.

Although Midwood is only a small town and has only one hospital, the level of medical care is not much worse than that of New York's Downtown Hospital. At least on regular inspection equipment, the two are largely in sync. Zongheng has done a lot of such inspections these days, and the precautions for various inspections are simply familiar, which saves a lot of time in the whole inspection process.

The inspection, which was expected to end at noon, was completed in just a few hours.

Coming out of the last examination room, Zongheng suddenly heard a crying sound mixed with Chinese. Almost at the same time, the hospital's PA system began to make an emergency call. Dr. Woolf hurriedly greeted Lydia and ran away.

"What happened?" Zongheng asked.

"I don't know." Lydia shook her head slowly, "It looks like a seriously wounded person has been sent." ”

"I heard Chinese, is it Chinese who was injured?"

"Seems to be." Lydia listened carefully, "Do you want to take a look?" ”

Zongheng nodded.

When the two arrived at the door of the rescue room, there were already several policemen gathered there, as well as six or seven Chinese. There are men, women, old and young, and they look like a family.

Lydia saw a familiar figure among the police, and she hurriedly called, "Jack! ”

Jack was stunned and immediately turned to look. There was a palpable look of disbelief on his face.

"Lydia?! You're back? Jack ran over in surprise and delight.

Seeing these two people getting together like old lovers reuniting, Zongheng couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

This woman slept in the same bed with me last night, and today she flirts with other men! Angry and angry.

I couldn't understand what they were saying, so I walked up to the group of Chinese people and listened to what was going on.

But these Chinese only cared about crying and crying, and they didn't pay attention to the vertical and horizontal at all, and naturally they didn't take the initiative to say anything to him. And their Chinese is mixed with a thick accent, and they can't listen to it all the time. After listening to it for a long time, I probably understood that these people had been robbed.

At this time, Lydia and Jack also finished talking about the old days and walked together in front of Zongheng.

Lydia introduces the two to each other.

Jack handed out a business card and said, "Nemo, since you are Lydia's cousin, you are also my cousin." My house is not far from Lydia's house, if you need any help, you can call me directly. Of course, you have to learn English as soon as possible. ”

Vertical and horizontal took the business card, and kept scanning Jack and Lydia's faces with a playful gaze.

Lydia was a little embarrassed by Zongheng, and hurriedly changed the subject: "Hey! Jack. Are these Chinese? What happened to them? ”

Jack glanced at these people and sighed, "These are immigrants who have moved to Midwood in recent years to open restaurants in the West End. At the dawn of the morning, a kid broke into their house, robbed them of their savings, and returned the youngest girl in the family. Now the girl is being rescued in the emergency room. ”

"Shot?" Lydia asked.

"No......" Jack said with a look of embarrassment, "it's the place that's torn, bleeding profusely......"

"How old is the girl?"

"Thirteen."

"Hellish brute!" Lydia scolded viciously, "Do you know who did it? ”

"Probably yes. It's a black boy. But we are now having a hard time finding evidence to convict him. ”

"Why?!" Lydia's eyes widened.

"I'll have to ask them." Jack pointed with his chin to the family who were hugging and crying like quails, "After the incident, they didn't call the police immediately, but tried to cover it up." The girl was bleeding profusely, and they thought it was a normal bleed after the first time she was a virgin, and they also used some inexplicable methods to stop the bleeding, which led to the large-scale destruction of biological evidence. Even after contacting the ambulance, they lied that the girl accidentally fell on a bicycle and caused the injury. The first responder thought they were lying and immediately called the police. After dragging on for so long and polluting the evidence, the kid who committed the crime would have already compiled a whole set of alibi evidence for himself. ”

Lydia was dumbfounded. She translated the conversation between the two to Zongheng Ting. Zongheng was also speechless for a long time.

At this time, the family finally noticed that there were two more outsiders around. It was probably Lydia and Zongheng's appearance that made them feel cordial, and after a little whispering discussion, an old lady stood up and asked Lydia tentatively, "This girl?" Are you Chinese? ”

The old lady spoke with a strong accent, but fortunately, she spoke more slowly, but it could be understood.

Lydia categorically denied: "No! I'm half Chinese, but I'm a U.S. citizen! ”

Hearing this, the old lady's body suddenly shrank, and she timidly glanced at the family behind her.

Zongheng noticed that the two adult men in this family were urging the old lady with their eyes. One of them was about the same age as the old lady, presumably her husband. There is also a middle-aged man, presumably the son of an old lady and an old gentleman. The woman next to the middle-aged man was presumably his wife, and two underage boys clinged to their mother like frightened little beasts.

Then Lydia said, "Madame, if you have anything you want to say to this officer, I can translate it for you." ”
