Chapter 39: Employment [Asking for Recommendation Votes]
Bang –
In the face of the atrocities that are close at hand.
Mrs. Connie subconsciously turned her head, her fingers clutching her husband's sleeve tightly, and she closed her eyes and couldn't bear to look at the next bloody scene.
However, after a few seconds, Lady Connie opened her eyes, and the scene in front of her was very different from what she had expected.
Someone was injured, but this injured person was not the expected Li Ran.
Rather, it was the black man who did it first.
In the Chinese restaurant, Li Ran maintains the posture of raising his legs.
On the wall, a black man with a baseball bat is slowly sliding down the wall.
"Boy, you've messed with the wrong person!"
Looking at the companion who was kicked away by Li Ran on the wall, the remaining black people looked at each other silently, and the black man in the lead immediately raised the baseball bat in his hand and smashed it towards him.
Click.
Li Ran flicked his calf and directly kicked the oncoming wooden stick, and then changed his posture and kicked the black man in front of him out of the Chinese restaurant. On the side, seeing that Li Ran easily eliminated his accomplice with three or two clicks, another black man hurriedly took out his pistol and aimed it at him.
However, before he could pull the trigger.
Li Ran stepped suddenly, and the powerful force of the powerful King Kong leg left a shallow crack on the ground of the Chinese restaurant, and in the next moment, the person had already rushed to the black man with the gun, and with a back kick from the side, he directly kicked the pistol in his hand into a ball of parts, and with the scattered gun parts, Li Ran's feet kept moving and kicked the black man on the opposite side.
After finishing away the few black people who rushed up, Li Ran slowly retracted his legs and turned to look at the only black man standing still in the Chinese restaurant.
The black man who survived looked down at his fallen accomplice, then looked up at Li Ran opposite, decisively confessed, and secretly ran out of the Chinese restaurant while waving his hands: "Actually, I have nothing to do with them, I'm just here to join in the fun, I don't like these very much from the beginning, man." ”
"Who are you? Where did it come from? ”
Coming back to her senses, Mrs. Connie looked at the prospect of the Chinese restaurant and asked Li Ran at the moment.
"My name is Ah Xing, and I'm from the legendary Penglai."
[Legend from Connie +5]
[Legend from Geth +5]
Sure enough, it is still the Chinese people who can better understand the meaning of Penglai.
……
Shocked, the male owner of the Chinese restaurant, Jith, seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly opened the cash register of the restaurant, took out a thick stack of banknotes from it and handed it to Li Ran.
"Here you go."
"What?"
Li Ran lowered his head, looked at the money delivered to the door, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"I know these people, they won't give up so easily, and they will definitely call people to come to you again, so get out of Harlem quickly with this money."
The male host Ji Si did this, in addition to caring about Li Ran, in fact, he was also worried that more people would come to him for trouble in the Chinese restaurant. In the final analysis, the husband and wife are just ordinary people, and they only open restaurants to make a living, and they don't want to get involved in the fight between Li Ran and the gangsters.
This may be a bit selfish, but it is also a helpless thing.
"I see." The attitude of the restaurant owner Ji Si has actually been very clear, and Li Ran has nothing to be angry about this, because from another perspective, if he is an ordinary person facing such a situation, he is actually very likely to choose this attitude of retreating from one more thing than one less thing.
Fortunately, he is not an ordinary person like Keith who has no ability to resist and can only go against the grain.
Nodding, Li Ran pushed away the banknotes in front of him: "I'll go, but I won't accept this money, if I collect this money, then what's the difference between me and the gangsters before." ”
Taking off his uniform and placing it on the table next to him, Li Ran nodded to Mrs. Connie in the Chinese restaurant, then turned around and walked towards the door of the Chinese restaurant.
Not working in a Chinese restaurant actually didn't have much impact on him, and after all, Li Ran didn't come to Harlem to work for a part-time job.
"Wait a minute!"
Mrs. Connie glanced down at Li Ran's uniform stacked in the Chinese restaurant, and then at his back as he left.
He struggled and hesitated for a few seconds, and hurriedly shouted to Li Ran, who had already walked to the door of the store.
"You don't need to leave, Ah Xing." Reaching out and patting her husband's arm, Mrs. Connie looked at Li Ran's surprised face: "We plan to hire you to protect the safety of the Chinese restaurant." ”
……
Harlem Paradise.
Second floor, inside the office.
"In the barbershop?"
Cornell furrowed his eyebrows slightly when he heard Shamik's name, feeling a little troubled.
When he was young, he used to work under his father Henry, and he was taken care of a lot, so he had a lot of respect for his former boss, even if the other party was no longer fierce after he came out of prison, he still maintained his respect, and respected the other party's request, so that the barber shop he opened existed as the "Switzerland" (neutral zone) of Harlem.
"You're sure he's in the barbershop."
"You can't go wrong." Shamik nodded hurriedly, he didn't dare to lie in front of the water pit viper: "Yellow man in a red sweatshirt, I saw him sitting there cutting his hair when I went to the barber shop in the morning, and I quarreled with my father for this. ”
“……”
Hearing this, Cornell sat in his chair and was silent for a moment.
Only then did he slowly speak: "Since the matter involves my father's ......"
However, before Cornell could finish speaking, the door to the room was pushed open again.
"Hey, Willis, haven't you learned even a little bit of politeness, don't you see me talking?"
Cornell frowned as he looked at the 'rattlesnake' Willis Stryker who broke in, and asked with a look of displeasure.
"That guy is here again!" Ignoring the accusations, Willis glanced at Martin in the office and Shamik, who was kneeling on the ground, and said to Connell who was sitting in a chair, "The man in the red sweatshirt, we have a group of men who were attacked by him while collecting money. ”
"It's him again!"
Although Cornell still has respect for his father, it does not mean that he can accept the things that others have repeatedly destroyed him.
"Where is it again this time?" Suppressing the anger in his heart, Cornell asked.
"It's the Chinese restaurant of the Chinese couple."
Hearing that the place of the accident was not in the barbershop, Cornell's frowning eyebrows suddenly stretched, and he got up from where he was sitting and came to the 'Rattlesnake': "Before tomorrow, I hope to be able to see that guy, whether he lives or dies, and let him understand what Harlem, the rules of the black quarter." ”
