"Hey, who is it?" There was an annoyed voice on the other end of the phone.

"Helena, long time no see, remember who I am?" Chu Ge asked casually.

"Leon?" The voice on the other end of the phone raised a little, as if there was some surprise, and there was a hint of surprise.

"That's right, that's me."

"Hehe, your voice is weird."

Chu Gexin said dryly, he actually forgot to use the disguise technique to change his voice, and hurriedly changed his voice with a disguise technique, and changed his voice by the way, "Ahem, I didn't wake up a little just now." ”

"Uh, what's wrong with me?"

"Of course, would you like to go out to dinner together?"

"Now? It's only nine o'clock in the morning. ”

"It's okay at night, I'm free at any time, how about it, are you free?"

There was a pause on the other end of the line, "How about 8 p.m." ”

"Then it's decided, what do you want to eat?"

"I know an Italian restaurant that has good Chinese food."

Chinese food in an Italian restaurant? What the hell is Chu Gexin? But he said, "That's what I want." ”

In the evening, Chu Ge came to the restaurant mentioned by Helena half an hour early-Yuhuayuan Restaurant.

He had learned about the restaurant in advance before he came, and by the way, he had booked a table for tonight.

There are already a large number of Chinese restaurants in the United States, and Los Angeles is a city with a large concentration of Chinese, and the number of Chinese restaurants is not ordinary.

However, most Chinese restaurants are mainly low-end fast food and family dinners, and Yuhuayuan is one of the few high-end Chinese restaurants, so you need to book in advance.

The origin of this restaurant is quite bizarre, it is said that it was originally an Italian restaurant, and then for some reason it changed owners, but the new owner did not change the original decoration, but changed the name, and in addition to Italian food, it also began to serve Chinese food, and it is a bizarre restaurant that combines Chinese and Western cuisine.

Sitting in his seat, drinking the tea provided by the restaurant, Chu Ge was bored and looked at the exotic decorations around him, and waited with some anticipation.

At eight o'clock, Helena appeared at the door of the restaurant on time and walked towards Chu Ge from afar.

She was wearing a black evening dress, her blonde hair was shining in the light, and the close-fitting evening dress made her look unusually graceful, which made Chu Ge's eyes hot for a while, this woman who often exercises is different, her figure is uneven, but she is not slightly bloated like ordinary European and American women.

"You're so beautiful tonight." Chu Ge got up and pulled out a chair for her.

"Thank you," Helena smiled slightly, sat down in front of Chu Ge, she looked at Chu Ge, "You look a little different, radiant?" Is it my delusion? Or has something good happened lately? ”

Chu Gexin said that it was the relationship between Long Yingong? This thing also has a beauty effect, so it should just look more energetic. "Hehe, of course I'm happy that the beauty can enjoy the light and have dinner with me, but you're right, I have indeed encountered some good things recently, and I have a little harvest at work, and people are in good spirits at happy events."

"Congratulations."

"What about you, why does your voice sound a little angry during the day today?"

Helena sighed, "Because of some things at work, but don't talk about that, by the way, how do you feel about this restaurant?" ”

Chu Ge was about to answer, when he suddenly felt something in his heart, and as soon as he closed his eyes slightly, a small map immediately appeared in his mind, and in a position not far from his seat, a golden exclamation mark icon suddenly appeared.

What the heck? There is actually a task?

Chu Ge didn't take it too seriously, this small map can only show the surrounding maps and unit status, the so-called task, it should just be some people who need help with something special, and it won't really trigger the task or something as soon as you open your mouth like in the game, of course, it is possible to know that the other party needs help through communication, but just like reality, it may not be easy to gain the trust of the other party, and if you don't communicate well, you may even get into trouble, so Chu Ge doesn't mean to take the task in the past, Just glanced over there, but sitting at the table was an old man of Chinese descent, seventy or eighty years old, very old, but in good spirits, and graceful manners, at a glance it gave people the feeling of a superior person, and next to him sat respectfully a bald man in a black suit, who seemed to be a bodyguard.

The old man seemed to sense his gaze, suddenly looked up at him, and nodded slightly.

What's the situation? Chu Ge was stunned for a moment, but Helena in front of him suddenly sighed, "Oh, I'm really sorry, I think I met an acquaintance." ”

Acquaintance? Chu Ge turned around, but saw Helena also raising her glass at the Chinese old man with a smile, with the expression of meeting an old friend.

Only then did Chu Ge understand that the old man should not be nodding at himself, but at Helena.

"Do you know that old man?"

"Of course, this old man is not ordinary, he is the former president of the Dragon Blood Society."

"Dragon's Blood Society?"

"You don't even know about the Dragonblood Club, you don't know how qualified this detective is, the Dragonblood Club is one of the largest Chinese gangs in the United States, and it can be ranked in the top 20 in the entire American gangsters, of course, strictly speaking, whether the current Dragonblood Club is still a gangster is a little uncertain, since ten years ago, this gang began to transform its business, and it was the old man who presided over the transformation.

A few years ago, I was in charge of investigating him, at that time he was semi-retired, opened this restaurant, I didn't find any useful information at the time, but I found that the food here is very good, and I know him, I didn't expect him to remember me. ”

"It's hard to forget what you look like." Chu Ge complimented without a trace, "By the way, you just said that the recent work has not been smooth. ”

"yes." When it comes to work, Helena's expression is quite tangled.

"I won't talk about the details, there are some things that ordinary people still don't want to know, as a detective, you should know that there are always some gray areas in reality that are not so legal but objectively exist, especially when it comes to people with special backgrounds."

Chu Ge nodded slightly, "Of course I understand." ”

"Ell, I happened to have such an incident recently, and I was told not to investigate anymore."

Chu Gexin said that it was so bloody, but the heart of gossip couldn't help but come out, and after watching so many Hollywood blockbusters, it was inevitable that he would be interested in the dark side of this kind of capitalism, "So you feel hesitant." “
