Chapter 16: Robbery

Zongheng knew that if his words did not satisfy the two of them, they would not tell him half the truth. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Since you like to talk about right and wrong behind your back, I don't believe that you are not interested in the news I released! Zongheng thought to himself.

He laughed and said, "I just came from the hospital, and I happened to see a family making trouble in the hospital, it seems to be the family you two talked about. So there is this question. ”

Sure enough, when they heard Zongheng's words, the two people's eyes immediately lit up, and they beckoned Zongheng and said, "Come!" Come! Come! Come and sit with us. Tell me, what did you see in the hospital? ”

In the excitement, they actually let down their guard, and even forgot to inquire about the origin of Zongheng.

Zongheng told them in detail about what happened in the hospital, but he hid Lydia's FBI identity and old acquaintances with the sheriff.

There are other people's idle things and snacks, and these two people drink very heartily. If it weren't for the fact that Zongheng was obviously not under the legal drinking age, they would have to drink with Zongheng. For this reason, they specially ordered a glass of orange juice to be sent to Zongheng on the counter, which was regarded as compensation.

Zongheng replaced the wine with orange juice, toasted the two of them, and asked, "Looking at the appearance of the two of you, you must be the master chef in the store, right?" I'm kind of a stain on you two today. ”

The two of them immediately looked proud, and one of them said, "You little guy, although you are young, you have a good eye!" Our brothers, my surname is Ding, and his surname is Chen, and they are both chefs in this shop. It's just that I'm good at Sichuan cuisine, and he's good at Cantonese food, and each other is good at it, no matter how good they are. It's just that there are fewer customers at the moment, so we are lazy and let the apprentices work in the back. Ah, us! Just drink a few sips of wine and eat a few peanuts as a pastime. ”

"I just heard from the two of you that there is another boss Zhang in this store?" Zongheng saluted again.

Master Ding said: "That's right, Boss Zhang is our big boss. However, she has a lot of business and is not often in the store. If you want to come to dinner in the future, just come to me and Lao Chen directly! ”

"Then thank you Master Ding and Master Chen!" Vertical and horizontal fist holding.

As he spoke, the back kitchen brought over the dishes they had ordered. Zongheng hurriedly said hello to Lydia, asked her to sit at the table of the two chefs together, and asked the waitress to change the dishes to this table, saying, "It's really an honor to meet the two masters today. I saw that the two appetizers were too simple, so I simply borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, brought the food, and invited the two masters to eat together. ”

"What's so embarrassing?" The two of them hurriedly stood up and excused themselves, but the smiles on their faces could not be stopped.

After some hypocrisy and hypocrisy, the four of them finally sat down. And that Chef Ding and Chef Chen each asked the back kitchen to send a signature dish under the hands of the two of them.

Zongheng introduced: "This is my sister, surnamed Li." ”

The two chefs are busy with Lydia's salute.

Because of Zongheng's introduction, Master Ding naturally thought that Zongheng was also surnamed Li, so he asked, "Xiao Li, you and your sister are not locals, right?" I've never seen you before. ”

Although it is a rehash of the old story, this time the inquiry was not as wary as the last one.

Zongheng replied, "My sister and I have been in New York and don't come back often. No wonder you don't know us. ”

"Oh! So who is in Midwood? ”

This time, Lydia replied ahead of the curve, "My father is a history professor at Midwood College. ”

Hearing her say this, the two suddenly realized: "There is only one professor in Midwood whose surname is Li, and he is Chinese. So you belong to Professor Li's family? He's an old friend of ours! ”

There are people who know each other, and the relationship between the two sides is a little closer. Zongheng took the opportunity to ask his own question: "Two masters, just now you talked about the Zhao family is wonderful, what is the story here?" ”

Ding and Chen were already a little drunk at this time, and they had no scruples when they spoke.

Master Ding said: "You two brothers and sisters have been away all the year round, and I don't know much about the local situation in recent years. Speaking of which, the place of Midwood was originally a really good place, the city is not big, but it is well-equipped, beautiful, and simple, and it is not far from big cities such as Chicago. The most difficult thing is the establishment of an Ivy League university such as Midwood College, which makes the whole city quiet and moving, although slightly remote but not closed, the most suitable for people like us who are over half a hundred years old and have no pursuit of life. But in recent years......"

"Far away! Far from it! Master Chen couldn't hold it back as soon as Master Ding's conversation box was opened, so he hurriedly dissuaded him.

"Good! Good! That's it right away. "But it is precisely because of the good environment in Midwood that it has attracted many immigrants over the years." There are a lot of immigrants! and there were many people of all kinds. There are people like our brothers who are looking for a comfortable place to retire, and there are also people like the Zhao family who came to the United States to avoid trouble. If you want me to say, the girl of the Zhao family suffered this robbery, and it was also the sin of her father and her father. Others may not know it, but I know exactly what is going on in their family. This father and son were not very official in China back then, and they were greedy for a lot of money. Later, he was investigated by the top, and hurriedly collected the money and fled with his family. Later, in order to get a legal identity, he spent most of the greedy people's fat and people's ointment, and then he thought about opening a restaurant to make money. At first, these two guys wanted me to give them a spoon. But who is my old ding? Give them two embezzlers to work as their men? I'm not going to kill me! The family had no choice but to take care of their own business. If you want me to say, just this father and son, without the tiger skin on their bodies, are useless nests! The dishes are a mess, and they can only fool those foreign devils who have never eaten Chinese food. Even being a man is a mess, I have been coming to Midwood for several years, and I still have the frame of being an official back then, and I refuse to let them join our local Chinese Federation. Now that they've been robbed, I don't think they can ask for help?! ”

Another Master Chen also said: "Lao Ding is right. Speaking of which, our Chinese Federation in Midwood was also founded by our boss Zhang, and its purpose is to learn from Jews to help each other and not engage in fighting. The Zhao family's gang, when they first came, the old man was checked by Boss Zhang. But the club didn't dislike them, and still sent them an invitation to join the club in accordance with the rules of uniting all Chinese. But how did the surname Zhao do it? Neither agreed nor refused, so he hung the matter up and hung it to dry. I really don't know if they have human brains or dog brains in their heads! ”

The two masters babbled upside down and said that the Zhao family was not at noon. Listening patiently, I finally understood why this family was not welcomed. As the saying goes, you can't live by doing your own evil, some people offend all the people they can offend in order to maintain a vain face, so it's no wonder that when his family is already in trouble, others will see jokes.

"If you want me to say it! The reason why the old ladies of the Zhao family want to hide this incident is that in the final analysis, they can't let go of their face. The family was frightened by someone with a knife, and spoiled the daughter of the family in front of them, so they didn't have to be human beings when this matter got out, so they found a piece of tofu and killed them as soon as possible! It's just a pity for the girl of the Zhao family, with such a family, this life is ruined! In the end, Master Chen concluded with drunken eyes.

Zongheng originally just wanted to inquire about the situation of the Zhao family, but he didn't expect to gain so much information after a meal.

Boss Zhang? Zongheng remembered the name, he thought of the long knife inserted into the stone at the door of the hotel, and felt that the knife must have something to do with Boss Zhang, who was praised by the two masters.

He was about to ask about Boss Zhang's situation, when the bell at the door of the hotel suddenly rang with a crisp "jingle bell".

A black boy walked into the hotel with his hands in his pockets as if he had thorns on the soles of his feet.

The waitress of the "Wanwan Cavity" greeted her.

Just as the maid greeted him, Zongheng noticed that Lydia's expression had suddenly changed.

"What's wrong?" Zongheng asked.

Lydia had reached the back with one hand. Zongheng knew that her rifle was hidden there.

"Be careful! It didn't look like the kid was here to eat. ”

While the two were whispering, the black boy had already walked to the store under the guidance of the waitress.

I saw him look around and saw that there were only a few people in the store, and he immediately showed a smug look.

“@%& amp; amp; amp; amp; #$& amp; amp; amp; amp;! The black boy roared, drew a gun and pointed it at the waitress's head.

How could the maid have thought that such a thing would happen to her, and she was immediately frightened.

The black boy smirked, drew another gun from behind his back, and aimed it at them.

"Robbery?" Rydia asked.

Lydia nodded, and under the cover of the table, she quietly moved her hand with the gun under the table, opened the safe, and pulled the bolt to load.

Zongheng understood the situation and quietly hid a chopstick under his palm.

The two of them glanced at each other, and there was a smile in their eyes, as if they were laughing at the black boy who robbed and didn't know how to choose a good day, and actually came to rob when Zongheng and Lydia were present.

But what made Zongheng strange was that the two masters, Chen and Ding, also looked like old gods, and they didn't see the slightest sign of fear and nervousness.

Zongheng couldn't help but ask, "Master Ding, Master Chen, are you often robbed here?" ”

Master Ding laughed and said, "You'll find out later." ”

As soon as Master Ding finished speaking, he saw several secret doors suddenly open on the wall of the restaurant, and several chef-like people rushed out of the secret doors with a rifle each, surrounding the black boys.

Facing the muzzle of the black hole, the black boy was so frightened that his face turned white, and he hurriedly dropped the pistol and raised his hands to make a surrender.
