"Ji Li!"

"Ji Li!"

"Ahh

Ji Li, who came back to her senses, came back to her senses and smiled apologetically at Jack.

"Ji Li, what are you thinking?"

Jack asked with a smile, his eyes were cast on the Chinese at the other table at the same time, his piano level may be average, but at least that piece, Jack had to admit, it was the most beautiful piano piece he had heard, at least one of them.

"He really plays the piano really well!"

"yes, I've never heard this piano music before!"

In response to Jack's question, Ji Li once again turned her gaze to the man, who seemed to be laughing with the doll Chinese girl and the man at the table.

"His temperament seems to be a little different from other Chinese!"

"Hmmm! Although he was on crutches, he stood there straight, and he could not see all the groveling of the Chinese, nor could he see the kind of arrogance. And the whole person seems to be calm! ”

As the inspector of the old gate patrol house in the public concession, almost the first time he saw this Chinese, Jack noticed the difference between him and ordinary Chinese, the Chinese who walked in the concession, he had seen too much, but the Chinese in front of him made him feel that there was a clear difference between him and other Chinese.

But as for what was different, Jack couldn't figure it out for a while.

"Jack, did you find that person?"

Eating the steak on the plate, Ji Li asked rhetorically again, Jack was a friend she had met at the ball, an American, who worked in the patrol house and knew a lot of Chinese, decent or unseemly.

"On crutches, about thirty years old, short hair, shaggy hair, um......"

At this, Jack's eyes looked at the man across the dining table, and wasn't there a cane in the man's chair. And he did see that he seemed to have some difficulty moving when he had walked earlier, and it seemed that everything was pointing at this man.

"Ji Li, maybe that person,"

Jack smiled suddenly, and took a sip from the glass on the table.

"Far away, close at hand!"

Speaking a word in Chinese, Jack put down the sprinkler cup in his hand and ignored Ji Li's surprise and walked towards the table.

"My waist is bent no! So the comprador can't do it. ”

Xiao Xinren shrugged his shoulders helplessly, the fifth graduate of the dignified Virginia Military Academy, couldn't find a "decent" job in Ruoda Shanghai, which can be regarded as a kind of irony.

"I can't kneel, so the officials can't! After all, I'm just a useless scholar now! ”

"If you make your knees weak, then you might as well not do it!"

Chen Moran nodded in agreement, in the past about six years, let alone make his knees hard, and even think about how to make it soft all day long, thinking about how to be a good slave, fortunately, his stinky temper has been soft for a while, but not for a lifetime.

"I'm thinking, you don't want to wear that red-capped official hat, otherwise you'll ......"

Clicking on his head with his hand, Chen Moran said with a look of sympathy, if he really wanted to get that official hat, he would not cut his braids, if it was left for ten years, no, even eight years later, Chen Moran would think that he was a revolutionary, as for now? How many people are there in the revolutionary party? But this man seems to have the potential of a revolutionary party.

And he is also a top student of the Virginia Military Academy, a talent! I think that Sun Liren, the fox of the East, seemed to have graduated from the Virginia Military Academy, and he had not yet entered the fifth place, and he didn't know how many talents had lost in thousands of years of history.

Connecting with the beautiful dream of his previous self, Xiao Xinren's eyes also changed slightly.

"Tenacity, if you want......"

"Hello! Mr! ”

Before the words were finished, Chen Moran's words were interrupted by a strange tone.

Chen Moran raised his head and saw a foreigner with a hippie smile standing in front of the table, but this foreigner was not wearing any suit, but a police uniform.

"Whether it's China or a foreign country, interrupt people...... It's very rude! ”

Seeing clearly the logo of the police uniform of the comer, and then hearing Chen Moran's words, Xiao Xinren's heart tightened, in the concession, these inspectors and inspectors are simply the emperor of the soil.

"Excuse me! Excuse me! ”

The other party's collision only made Jack smile, and when apologizing, he looked at this Chinese who played the piano well, there was no second person Chinese in Shanghai, and he said so to himself, but he liked this person, just like previously guessed, he was completely different from other Chinese.

"Hello, my name is Jack Louis!"

Jack Lewis!

Xiao Xinren couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, how could he not know that Jack Louis was the inspector of the old gate capture house, and the old gate patrol house was second only to the central patrol house in the concession, and the prosperity of the area under its jurisdiction was not inferior to the Bund. Jack Lewis, who was the inspector of the old gate patrol house, was also a well-known figure in the public concession.

Of course, this American cowboy-born inspector is famous not because he is famous for accepting bribes like other inspectors and inspectors, but because he is famous for refusing bribes and integrity.

Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, although he didn't have much affection for the foreign catchers in this era, but this person was saluted, how could he make him laugh When he introduced himself, Chen Moran stood up with a cane in his left hand.

"Chen Moran!"

Sure enough, it was him!

The smile on Jack's face grew thicker, and it didn't take much effort to get there!

"Can you sit down?"

With his hand stretched out, Chen Mo spit out a word.

"Please!"

"Thank you!"

Although he was a little presumptuous when he came, after Chen Moran reminded him, from the introduction to the sitting, Jack was full of politeness, which made Chen Moran feel a little good, but his skin was ......

Perhaps, when I came to this era, while appreciating the prosperity of Shanghai at this time, I was shocked by the poverty and ignorance of the compatriots after this prosperity, but I saw too much of this scene with negative emotions, and I became numb, just like seeing Li Er scolding the country in the newspaper, although I occasionally felt humiliated, but ...... What's the use of him not selling? I'm afraid that others will sell more.

But even if you are numb, it is difficult to turn a blind eye to these foreigners who are rampaging in China, before, you can pretend to turn a blind eye, but now, people are sitting in front of you, although they are satisfied with this person's attitude, but the skin is really a bit dazzling.

Fifteen years of patrolling and arresting skills made Jack realize for the first time that Chen Moran was looking at him, and it was precisely the discomfort revealed by this police uniform.

"Please forgive me, Mr. Chen, I'm on duty right now, if I change the time and remove this clothes, I think we'll become friends!"

The tone is sincere, the attitude is sincere! There is no such arrogance as a foreign devil!

Jack Louis's words were in Xiao Xinren's ears, and he couldn't help but look at him in surprise, but Chen Moran smiled quite usefully, this Jack is a bit interesting!

"I think, Mr. Jack, even now we have a chance to be friends!"

"Mr. Chen, that's my friend Miss Ji Li, she likes your previous music very much, and hopes to get to know you, the best pianist in Shanghai, if you don't mind."

Jack pointed to Ji Li who was working at the dining table not far away.

"Of course!"

Chen Moran nodded, since this person is so polite, why should he lose face? Following his finger direction, a blonde woman had gotten up and walked over.
