Chapter 24: Door-to-door
In the entire three-story ashram, the moonlight poured into it like water, and the vicinity of the gods and demons was like a black hole, absorbing all the moonlight around it, and then turning it into a gentle beam of light shining above Ling Xiao's head, supporting his cultivation.
After a long time, Ling Xiao's hand flipped over the law, and the beam of light that hit the top of Ling Xiao's head by the god and demon list disappeared immediately. And as he exhaled lightly, Ling Xiao slowly opened his eyes, his hand was released, and the list of gods and demons also descended from mid-air to the altar.
It was already half past one in the morning, Ling Xiao finished the practice of the evening class, closed the heavy iron door on the third floor again, and then went down to the second floor leisurely, and after taking a little bath, Ling Xiao returned to the bedroom.
His room was empty, Ling Xiao smiled lightly, in the past, Gan Jing always teased him several times because he knew that he couldn't do something, and now this host and guest are afraid of having to transpose.
Ling Xiao had heard the story about the inferiority of beasts and beasts, and people like him were more casual in doing things.
Ling Xiao walked to the door of Gan Jing's room, and with a slight push, the door was opened, and at this time, Ling Xiao couldn't help but chuckle again and walked in.
Ling Xiao and Gan Jing have been together for three or four years, and the lonely man and widow stay together almost every day, even if there is nothing in the first place, something will happen over time, not to mention that this is the United States, except for the last hurdle between the two of them, everything that should be done has already been done.
When she got up the next morning, Gan Jing was preparing breakfast with a normal look, but between her walks, her steps staggered slightly, and the corners of her mouth twitched a little because of the pain.
When Ling Xiao came down from the third floor after finishing his morning class, Gan Jing was already sitting there alone and eating breakfast. In the past, she would choose to wait for Ling Xiao to come down and eat together, but today it was obvious, hehe......
Ling Xiao walked up to Gan Jing, kissed her lightly on the forehead, and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay, I don't know ......"
"Don't!" Gan Jing glared at Ling Xiao vigorously, and at the same time pinched his waist fiercely and said, "Don't say it, if you say it again, I will ignore you." β
"Alright, alright." Ling Xiao looked at the pretended tough look on Gan Jing's face, smiled pityingly, sat down beside her, and said softly: "Don't go there today, rest at home." I'll call the school to ask for leave later, and I'll be with you at home today. That's it. β
"Hmm!" Seeing Ling Xiao's determined expression, although Gan Jing was very happy in her heart, she still pretended to be calm and nodded.
Ling Xiao does have a lot of things to be busy in the store, many medicinal materials need to be sorted out, and there are many things to be busy with ordering and delivery.
After packing up his things, Ling Xiao stood aside and watched Gan Jing finish sending off the last guest, and then walked forward, walked to the counter, stood side by side with Gan Jing, and asked in a low voice, "Where did you put that thing?" β
Gan Jing looked at Ling Xiao and was slightly stunned, but she quickly reacted, reached out and touched under the counter on her right, and a Smith & Wesson MP9L pistol was immediately held in her hand.
This is an MP military police pistol launched by Smith in 2005, which has been adopted by law enforcement agencies in more than a dozen countries around the world, with a solid reputation, easy maintenance, simple maintenance, low failure rate, fair price, and after-sales service in place.
The gun in Gan Jing's hand is more suitable for women, and Ling Xiao specially got it for her, and of course, there is also a gun license.
Ling Xiao nodded with satisfaction, flipped his hand, and a Glock 17-style pistol appeared in Ling Xiao's hand, and then he stuffed it under the counter, and said to Gan Jing at the same time: "Put one more, if there is a real accident, two guns are more reassuring than one." β
"Are you worried that the Japanese will come to you?" Gan Jing frowned, she immediately guessed Ling Xiao's thoughts.
"It's okay to be prepared!" Ling Xiao nodded lightly and said, "If I'm at home, naturally I don't have to worry about anything, if I'm not at home, you have to be careful, especially recently." β
Ling Xiao was still a little worried that the Japanese would find clues from Qin Ming's body and then touch himself. The people of the Nissin Society are not policemen, and they never need evidence to do things, just an idea.
Ling Xiao's worries were not unreasonable, after confirming that Qin Ming had entered Zhang Xiaotian's house, Shishi Tian Jiro immediately began to investigate all the Chinese men in the city who had a good relationship with Qin Ming. Although Ling Xiao was wearing a mask at the time, the mask of the Monkey King had already said a lot.
Just after the afternoon, a very surprising guest came to Ling's Pharmacy.
A middle-aged man wearing a dark and straight suit walked in, this person looked ordinary, neatly dressed, his hair was combed very neatly, and there was a bit of military atmosphere between the walks, as soon as he entered the door, the man said directly: "I want to buy a few pairs of cold medicine, is it okay?" β
"Of course, no problem, can you tell us about the symptoms of a cold?" Gan Jing looked very professional, and asked the middle-aged man about the status of his condition in detail, so as not to miss any invisible symptoms, otherwise, it would be very troublesome to be sued by others in court in the future.
Generally speaking, most of the people who come to Ling's Pharmacy are Chinese, and everyone knows what is going on with Chinese medicine, and the problem lies with those white people who come occasionally, who don't understand Chinese medicine, and come here to buy medicinal herbs more out of curiosity, and once there is a problem with eating, they will immediately sue Ling's Pharmacy in court.
The most disgusting thing is that some people come here to buy medicine on purpose, hide their or their family's real illness from the doctor, and soon after, the patient dies, and then immediately sue the pharmacy in court.
In the United States, human life is more important than everything else, and coupled with the lack of familiarity with Eastern culture, the jurors in those courts can easily defeat the drugstore, not only pay a lot of money, but even Ling Xiao or Gan Jing will be charged with murder and finally go to prison.
Some Americans just take a fancy to this, knowing that you are afraid of this, and they are not willing to go to court, in case they expose their stuffing, it will be troublesome, so they directly blackmail the pharmacy, so when selling medicinal materials to these people, Gan Jing is very careful.
Not only is the monitoring of the pharmacy open at any time, but even when going through the procedures for selling medicines, Gan Jing will also fill the medicine list with all the conditions described by the drug buyer in detail, and then write down his diagnosis and all the medicinal materials on it, and then ask the other party to sign.
All kinds of means to protect their own interests, this cannot be blamed on them being too careful, it is really difficult for Chinese people to live in the United States.
Looking at the medicine list handed over by Gan Jing, the middle-aged man's face showed an appreciative smile, nodded, and he immediately signed the medicine list.
Ling Xiao has been standing at the entrance of the Yongdao and looking at this middle-aged man, this person gives him a very different feeling, a bit like the legendary federal agent, the FBI? DEAοΌ ATFοΌ A series of three-letter federal agencies appeared in Ling Xiao's mind.
Taking the Chinese patent medicine sold at Ling's pharmacy from Gan Jing's hand, the middle-aged man smiled, and his gaze slightly changed and fell on Ling Xiao on the side.
"You're Mr. Ling Xiao, hello, I'm Phil Coulson." The middle-aged man said, two rows of large white teeth showing out of his mouth.
Coulson, Phil Coulson, when he heard such a name, Ling Xiao couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and looked at him with wide eyes, a look of surprise.
"You know me?" Seeing Ling Xiao's expression, Coulson frowned and asked with a puzzled face.
"The name sounds familiar!" Ling Xiao nodded lightly, blinked his eyes and said, "You should be a federal agent, FBI, DEA, ATF, or CIA?"
Seeing Ling Xiao talking nonsense there in a serious manner, Coulson couldn't help but laugh.
