Raymond Leddington appeared at the restaurant shortly after receiving Alvin's text message.

The old thing lives in a slum-like apartment, and still takes care of himself meticulously.

After walking into the restaurant, Raymond greeted many people he knew, which surprised Alvin a little, the old viper's popularity was actually not bad. I don't know if I'm missing something!

Seeing Raymond laughing and high-fived and hugging, and then pointing and not knowing what to say, Alvin couldn't help but want to pull on his collar and tell him that this was a poisonous snake!

Fortunately, the current eldest sister of the restaurant, Jessica, solved the problem for Alvin, and the girl grabbed Shangqi's neck very domineeringly and urged him to start working, and glanced at Raymond with disdain by the way, and said, "Don't talk to such indiscreet people!" ”

Raymond shrugged his shoulders indifferently, it seemed that he liked Jessica very much, he didn't care about Jessica's sarcasm at all, but tilted his head and nodded at Jessica as if he had been greatly complimented.

Jessica rolled her eyes and turned away, she didn't have a good impression of this Raymond at all, and some instinctively rejected this laughing and emotionless viper.

However, Raymond didn't seem to mind Jessica's rudeness at all, and kept his eyes on Jessica to leave, and after a few seconds he shook his head and walked towards the bar where Alvin and the others were.

Alvin squinted at Raymond who came over, smiled and said, "Dude, Jessica is a good girl, if you dare to hit her idea, I will pull out your intestines, I will do what I say." ”

Raymond crooked his neck and grinned, completely unconcerned about Alvin's threat, he nodded to Ivan and Dr. Ethan and sat down on the edge of the bar, beside Ethan Hant.

With his hands on the bar, Raymond looked at Alvin and said with a calm smile, "Do you want to bring me a glass of whiskey first?" ”

Alvin shook his head and smiled and took him a wine glass, poured a glass of whiskey, and said, "It seems that things are not what I thought, tell me, what is going on with Jessica?" Then you can talk to this Agent Ethanhan. ”

Raymond shook his head with a smile, took out a box of cigars and handed them out to Alvin, and then said with a smile: "Jessica has been very close to that Misty recently, and they are making preliminary preparations for their detective agency. I introduced them to a single business. ”

Saying that, Raymond glanced at Jessica, who was looking at him a little nervously, and said with a smile: "Jessica doesn't seem to be too satisfied with the results of the business. ”

Alvin was stunned for a moment, he could sense that Jessica seemed to be a little absent-minded lately. I thought she had found a boyfriend or something, and I wanted to wait for a chance to talk to him.

As a result, she went to partner with Misty to open a detective agency, which Alvin really didn't expect.

Alvin glanced at Raymond and said, "What business did you introduce them to make her so upset?" ”

Raymond took a puff on his cigar and said with a smile: "A "white glove" commission, he wants evidence of his wife's cheating. Jessica: That's a great job! ”

Alvin didn't understand and said, "What's there to be unhappy about?" It's not a good thing, but it's not a bad thing! ”

Raymond shook his head with a smile, glanced at Jessica, and said, "That woman has a prenuptial agreement with the "white glove", and if she cheats, she will have nothing.

Well~~ Then that woman committed suicide! ”

Alvin rolled his eyes and gave Raymond a middle finger, what good business can this old viper introduce? It is estimated that Jessica must be conflicted in her heart now.

Knocking on the bar, Alvin motioned for Ethan Hand to talk to Raymond himself, this old viper was willing to come to say that he could help, but he didn't know what Ethan Hand needed to give? I guess it's not going to be some simple money or something.

Alvin took two steps to the side and snapped his finger at the weak-looking Jessica, motioning for her to come to him.

Little Ginny, Mindy, and Nick and Richard are eating improved steaks around a small square table.

When little Ginny saw her father coming over, she cut a steak with filial piety and hard work, and ran over with a fork in her mouth, and shouted, "Daddy, taste it, it's a delicious steak." ”

Alvin pinched little Ginny's face with satisfaction, ate the steak sent by his daughter with a smile, gave a thumbs up happily, and said: "Hmm~ It's very delicious, if Ginny likes to eat, go to Grandpa Cheng and ask him to make you more." ”

Little Ginny giggled happily, earned two laps on the spot, kissed her father's face heavily, raised four fingers, and said, "Four copies!" Each of us has an extra one. ”

Alvin smiled and nodded, and said, "No problem, until you're full." "It is important for a little girl to fight for the welfare of her peers. A selfless and lovely girl who will have many friends in the future.

Alvin smiled as he watched his girl harass the chef, and when he looked back, he found Jessica leaning against the edge of the bar, hesitant to say something.

Alvin brought her a glass of lemonade and said with a smile, "Looks like you have a lot of things to hide from me."

You take your time, I'm not in a hurry! ”

Jessica held the lemonade glass, looked into Alvin's eyes, and said in a low voice, "I want to do something on my own, I want to be as independent as Fox and Shirley."

But I don't want to leave the restaurant, I'm very comfortable here, I'm at ease, do you think I'm useless? ”

Alvin shook his head with a smile, glanced back at a few giggling children, and then smiled at Jessica and said, "Personally, I don't think you're ready to face such a complicated problem, as you can see from your attitude towards Raymond."

But who knows? Maybe you'll be the best female detective in New York. ”

Saying that, Alvin looked at Jessica's uncertain expression, and said with a smile: "Don't underestimate yourself, what I said about you is not ready, it has nothing to do with your ability."

I'm just worried that you're not mentally prepared, like you investigated a woman's affair and ended up causing a tragedy. Then you start to feel guilty and hate Raymond.

He's definitely a badass, but there's something wrong with what you hate about him. At least I can see that he has no ill will towards you. ”

Jessica glared at Raymond, who was talking to Ethan Hant, and said, "This is a disgusting bastard, the employer he introduced is disgusting, and the subject of the investigation is disgusting.

How can there be such a disgusting marriage in this world? Both men and women are disloyal to each other and both want to kill each other.

And we became accomplices to one of them! ”

Alvin shook his head helplessly and said, "What is your original intention for working with Misty?"

If it's for the sake of a career, for the sake of making money, these things seem to be unavoidable.

You can't expect your employers to be all moral people.

In that case, you might as well be an honest waiter with me, and at least you won't starve. ”

Jessica was stunned for a moment, looked at Alvin and said carefully, "You mean, if I'm going to be a detective, I can't stay in the restaurant?" ”

Alvin shook his head helplessly, there is something wrong with this girl's brain circuit, shouldn't you concentrate on doing something if you want to do a career? Why do you still want to hold on to the position of a waiter? Will you still have free time in the future?

Jessica looked at Alvin and shook her head, pulled Alvin's arm a little anxiously, and said, "Then I'll stop being a detective, I'd better stay as a waiter!" I don't want to leave here~~This is my home~~"

Alvin understood, he smiled, patted Jessica on the head, and said, "This is your home, it's definitely your home, whatever you go to do, it's your home."

I mean~~Hi~~ I forgot what I was talking about.

Just do what you want to do, and this will always be your home. ”

Saying that, Alvin looked at Jessica's happy appearance and said impatiently: "Hey~~ What am I telling you all this?" You don't seem to have a problem right now, so get back to work!

Shangqi is very good, he will definitely be able to replace you as the number one waiter at the Peace Hotel. ”

Jessica glanced at Shangqi, who was signing an autograph for a woman, pursed her lips disdainfully, and said softly, "Is he still early?" A fool who can't even make lemonade~~"

Saying that, Jessica clapped her hands with satisfaction and said, "Misty and I haven't been busy lately, and I will continue to stay in the restaurant to help."

You're never going to drive me away. ”

Alvin looked at the happy Jessica, crossed his fingers very sadly, and said, "Then you can only be regarded as a part-time job here, and I have to recalculate your salary."

How about $10 an hour? That's a bit higher than McDonald's. ”

As soon as Alvin finished speaking, he received an old punch in the shoulder, causing him to let out a cry of pain. This girl can't be messed with! Luckily, I reacted quickly and turned off the Thorn Spirit, otherwise you would have flown out!

Looking at Jessica, who was staring at him fiercely, Alvin raised his hands in admitting defeat and said with a smile: "Okay! I throw in the towel! Before you become a full-time detective, the position of the eldest sister of the Peace Hotel is yours. ”

Nick didn't know when he came over, and said to Jessica without knowing whether he was alive or dead: "Jesse, if you fail, I can hire you to help my mount as a nanny, two hours a day, um~~ two dollars per hour." That will keep you from starving, ha~~"

Alvin clutched his head and couldn't bear to see Nick's end, but to his surprise, Jessica wasn't angry, just made a threatening gesture to Nick, and then turned around and went to work.

Alvin glanced at Nick suspiciously, and said, "What's wrong with Jessica?" I thought you're going to be out of luck. ”

Nick tilted his head, spread his hands, and said in the tone of a Discovery Channel commentator, "Maybe she's mature!" She understands that it is wrong to bully a boy casually. I forgive her! ”

Alvin looked at Nick, a boy who dies every day, and his nose was still red. A rub on his head made him turn around, motioning for him to get out of here.

Glancing at Jessica's cheerful figure, Alvin thought about it, and still shouted at her with some unease: "Hey~~ Jesse, if you have a boyfriend, remember to bring it back to show me, and I'll take him to visit my Remington." ”

Saying that, Alvin ignored the frolicking in the restaurant and muttered in a low voice, "Mature~~ Then you have to be careful, don't let people cheat!" ”
