Chapter 2 Status is never given by others

At midnight, the villa-style houses that should have appeared in Los Angeles were all hidden in the darkness, and the brightest in the whole city was the dense interlaced traffic lines between the highways and city streets under the street lights, which spread like blood vessels in every inch of Los Angeles, and the cars with their lights on seemed to be the blood in the blood vessels, delivering supplies to the whole city.

It's a beautiful city, but when the bird's eye lens is adjusted to a personal perspective, there will be a lot of garbage on the streets after the festival, and these broken jack-o-lanterns, torn masks, beer cans, paper holes, and paper-wrapped cups and noodle boxes are all thrown on the side of the road, as if they have been used up once and don't want to take a second look.

On weekends like this, the police car slowly patrolled, their task was to prevent someone from getting drunk and making trouble on Halloween night, this is a character who needs to pay attention, but at this time the weekend seems to be extremely relaxed, there is no more FBI and the Department of Internal Affairs chasing his ass, there are no more unfinished cases and clueless clues, from now on, he can easily be a patrol officer, with Chekov the bear, wandering the streets of the wandering area in laughter.

"Zhou, don't you think we look like the staff who sweep the streets in the early morning?" Chekov sat in the car and took out his mobile phone and looked at it: "Call it a day." ”

Turning the front of the police car, ready to end the busy weekend, he responded: "We? It's quite similar, the streets are cleaned up during the day, and no one knows how much dirt is in the alleys behind the streets. The weekend in the opposite direction, heading towards the Western Branch, continued with an unprecedented attitude: "Whatever. Anyway, no one can make the whole world clean with the power of one person, so why not think about something easier. ”

When Chekov heard the word relaxed, he glanced at the time again: "Then why don't you go for a drink?" Anyway, those who work the night shift today will be able to rest tomorrow. ”

In this night when there were no gunshots, no chases, no need to worry at all. The weekend couldn't think of any reason to refuse: "Why not?" ”

The police car drove to the police station, and then a BMW and a blue Raptor drove out of the police station parking lot, and eventually, they parked their cars at the bar where the police from the Western Branch went to their favorite bar.

This time, the weekend wasn't as rushed as the last time, though. This time he didn't look at the name of the bar either, and all he needed to know about the liquor was sold on the weekend, which was already completely relaxed.

"Hey. Week. ”

Acquaintances from the western branch of the bar greeted him as he pushed the door in, and Weekend, who waved at the source of the sound, was going to sit next to the bar, when a very cute little teddy ran out of the bar. The puppy seemed to be very excited to see someone who had just come in. Wagging his tail and spinning around at his weekend feet.

The dog's name is Papbi, and he is the bar owner's dog.

“HI。” The weekend crouched down and picked up the puppy, and the bar owner gave him a friendly look.

Carl, a black man, joked to the weekend at the bar: "Zhou, why are you only willing to hold a dog when the big beautiful woman of the 77th block deigns to come to us?" ”

At the end of the week, I found that Leonova was sitting in a booth, next to which was Karl and some old fritters from the Western Bureau, a group of guys who usually divided the bar according to skin color, and they got together after she appeared.

Leonova seemed to be very accustomed to this kind of occasion, and without the slightest annoyance, she pretended to smirk and said: "Thank you, Karl." You're the first to compare me to a dog. ”

She walked towards the weekend as she withdrew from the crowd's booths: "Zhou, meet again. ”

"Why are you here?" Weekend responded with a smile.

Leonova glanced at the teddy in the weekend's hand and said, "Preston and the upper side said that the police are not enough." Halloween will be followed by Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Valentine's Day, so some people from other sub-bureaus will be assigned to help temporarily in the western sub-bureau, and when the new people arrive next year, we will be transferred back. Not only did I come, but the Hill District, North Hollywood, and West Hollywood Police Departments all sent people. ”

"I'm just going to come over one step ahead to find out what is going on, and I'll follow you tomorrow, and in the next few months, my precinct will be next to yours."

Needless to say, the culprit who caused the manpower strain in the Western Branch was standing next to him over the weekend, and if Chekov hadn't taken four policemen directly to the hospital, he and Leonova would never have touched.

Leonova said: "But I noticed that your bureau seemed to lack estrogen, so I followed Carl into the bar, and a group of uniformed guys surrounded me, and I suspected that I would otherwise be caught by law enforcement on Mexican soil." ”

At that moment, Weekend turned his head to look at Karl, only to find that the other party was sending some code and winking at him......

Completely relaxed, Weekend smiled and said, "Ignore them, they're just a bunch of bastards." ”

Normally, this sentence would anger everyone with two mixed skin tones, but in a place like a bar, no one thinks that the weekend is saying these things seriously, they are all waiting for the follow-up of the weekend.

Ignoring the policemen on the weekend, he reached out and handed the teddy in his hand: "Do you want to hug it?" ”

Teddy turned his head very sensibly to look at the beautiful woman in front of him, lowered his head and leaned his nose over, Leonova was ready to reach out: "Okay." ”

Something interesting happened, the weekend threw the teddy in his hand on the ground and reached out to give Leonova a hug directly!

Leonova didn't react at all, and when she was hugged by the weekend, she realized that it was a joke, and she laughed first.

“WOW!”

Everyone, including Chekov, exclaimed, and on the weekend, who was completely relaxed, he made a joke with Leonova, and when he let go of Leonova, he took the initiative to go to Karl and sit down and say: "I'm also a bastard, Leo, welcome to the house of bastards." ”

At that moment, the atmosphere of the bar was heated by a burst of cheers and laughter, and Carl directly handed over a bottle of beer from the ice bucket on the table and said, "Well done." ”

Chekov also squeezed into the team, and he liked the atmosphere of the moment.

Immediately afterward, the weekend got up and pulled Leonova over: "Hey, it's just a joke, don't be in a daze for so long." ”

Leonova glanced at the weekend where she had been given a special hug, picked up her glass and said, "To the house of bastards." ”

"To the house of the bastards."

In the bar, the people who used to lead the atmosphere were replaced by another group, and on the weekend, they also felt the sense of relaxation after completely relaxing with the departure of those people, they pushed their glasses in the booths, and in the emotional excitement, they also casually hummed classic country music, and it was the first time on the weekend that the atmosphere adjuster raised the beer in his hand and said, "To all of you." Then everybody raised their glasses in response.

This would never have happened when I first came to the Western Branch over the weekend, but now...... After the Cecil Hotel serial case and the New Mexico street rush case, Carl's old credentials recognized his status with a smile.

Status is never given by others. (To be continued......)
