At eight o'clock in the morning, Tommy, who had taken a shower after a morning run, came down to the restaurant from the Four Seasons suite to enjoy breakfast, and saw Stephen sitting at a dining table without any surprise, and two honey-skinned Cuban women sat opposite.

Accosting and hunting for beautiful Cuban girls has almost become a must-have project for rich men from outside the United States to travel and sightsee in the Miami, Florida area.

However, Tommy observes the outfits of the two women and thinks that Stephen may not be able to succeed, this bastard's method of picking up girls is simple and rude, but it is only effective for women who like money.

Stephen was dressed in British style, and at this time, while eating breakfast, he said his views on life to the two women: "I have been thinking about the philosophical questions of life, do you know, girls, our life can only have this moment forever, the experience of the past is like the annual rings hidden in the trunk of an oak tree, hidden in the memories of our brains, only some scattered fragments remain, you can only barely piece together the past in your brain, but never think about the real one, yesterday reappeared, like we cut down an old oak tree, Don't want to know what it has experienced in the past, you can only watch the circle of annual rings and fantasizes. ”

With that, he sent a small piece of local honey bread to his mouth, and then saw Tommy walking in his direction, and before the two women were still thinking about the deep question and didn't notice Tommy approaching, Stephen gave Tommy a "get out of the way, don't interfere with my charm".

The waiter also rushed over with the menu in his hand and politely asked Tommy, "Sir, is it one?" ”

At this time, the two women beside Stephen also turned their heads to look at Tommy, Stephen's eyes were about to pop out, Tommy finally chose to sit at the table two tables away from Stephen, and nodded to the waiter: "Yes, alone." ”

"I think you have a point." A young girl retracted her gaze, first gave a positive response to Stephen, nodded seriously, and said to Stephen appreciatively: "Yesterday can never be repeated." ”

"And the future is also nothing." Stephen got the girl's affirmation, and raised his voice slightly: "Think about it, the future is unknown, maybe I want to be a poet in the future, I want to be a philosopher in the future, but this is just our beautiful fantasy, God knows if it can come true, every moment, accidents will happen, will change our fantasies, in case of a tsunami in Florida today, and we happen to be sitting in this hotel restaurant by the sea at this moment, no matter how beautiful the future is, it is only a bubble, only worthy of being a eulogy from the priest's mouth when we are buried, There is no chance to achieve it again, every moment, accidents can happen, so we have to live in the moment, have fun in time, don't waste every second now, two, I listened to the waiter of the hotel, today there is a beach volleyball four-person team game on the beach, we just need to find another lucky man, we can set off, the champion will get the best sea view suite at the Four Seasons Hotel for a whole night, of course, the runner-up does not matter, I guarantee that we will still get the prize of the champion......"

Tommy listened to Stephen's chatter and finished ordering the food, and sure enough, as he expected, when he finished ordering, the two girls refused Stephen without much hesitation, and then got up and left, going in the direction of the hall.

"You often get drunk girls? Sounds experienced. Stephen asked suspiciously after listening to Tommy's words about the girl.

"I'm here to inform you." Page took a puff of tobacco from his pipe and said in a calm tone, "If you want to sue a member of the House of Representatives, you may have to send the complaint to the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C., but I don't think you should have the money to go to Washington." ”

Soon, an equally old woman appeared in the living room tremblingly, looking at Paige outside the door with cloudy eyes, with disbelief and shock.

Stephen didn't wait to become the boss of the Stanford branch of the Order of the Phoenix, so he took a leave of absence at Stanford halfway, unlike Tommy, who spent four years at Stanford and completed his promotion in the brotherhood, Stephen actually heard his brother Beltt talk about Tommy's means of attacking the Order of the Phoenix after graduation, and he was a little glad that he took a leave of absence early, otherwise this bastard would never let himself go.

When the people of the SSD White Robe Society awarded the outgoing president Tommy Hawke a commemorative rope of honor and solemnly bid farewell to the outgoing president of the White Robe Society to bid farewell to college life, the new and old brothers of the Order of the Phoenix pressed him to the floor and drew a JJ swastika on his head, and let him wear that symbol to attend the graduation ceremony, just to thank the Order of the Phoenix for his achievement of being the second brother of Stanford for two consecutive years under the leadership of Belt Feinstein.

"You don't fit into this set, did you notice the star magazine in the girl's hand when she left? The girl wore the same clothes as the cover actress, you should say directly, girls, I am a well-known producer in Hollywood, and I have had in-depth cooperation with many actresses, especially the cover actress, and then dial a phone call to your director, pretending to be surprised that he was on vacation in Miami, and met two girls who were very suitable for the new movie, and asked the company to send them a formal letter inviting them to an interview, air tickets and accommodation are all included, and then ask the girls for their addresses and phone numbers to tell the director, Intimate reminder to pay attention to privacy, you can leave a public address, and then hang up, and then a few polite words, leave a business card, introduce a few words about the new movie situation and leave, let your subordinates do the rest, I promise, the two girls absolutely can't resist their curiosity at night, go to you to talk about the script, drink two glasses, blow the wind, blow the net worth, when everyone is slightly drunk, you remind them again, do you see the handwritten Arabic numeral 20 on your business card before? That's the benchmark for your understanding of film art, to confirm whether they have enough artistic depth, believe me, the more literary or glamorous a woman looks, the more open it will be to men after a few more drinks. ”

Beltt can't meet Tommy, even if everyone has graduated now, and at the same time there is Stephen this sworn friend, in Belt's words, as soon as he sees Tommy, he has an urge to take a gun and crash Tommy, just because he is in the same class, the Order of the Phoenix has always been suppressed by the White Robe Society, Tommy obviously had a beautiful girlfriend named Otilia at that time, but he still has to talk to the girlfriend he deliberately pursued, even if Tommy successfully accosted himself and slept with her, Bert was not so angry, no, this stupid* I poured a bunch of bullshit theories into the literature girl, and then the girl became a prodigal and more open than the blonde prodigals, and it turned out to be the first to cheapen the bastards of Tommy's White Robe Society.

Patram County, Florida, Patraca City.

"Or else?" Stephen put bread into his mouth: "Don't you know, you wrote down these words in a fucking notebook, if it weren't for the number of words, he would have tattooed it on his chest, until now, he doesn't believe that you are a poor ghost of the White Robe Society, without a fucking penny, just relying on a bunch of rhetoric, actually let his beautiful girlfriend from the literature department who originally wanted to participate in the annual American Valentine's Pageant of the Order of the Phoenix proposed to break up with him, and became a philatelic queen who had fun in time, the stupid * of the White Robe Society under you* I had in-depth exchanges with her, and I even sent us a group photo with my mother, which completely ruined his hope of relying on that woman to compete for the American Lover Championship. ”

"Long Beach Police Department Sergeant Emeritus, Paige Lot, wants to come to your door to talk to you about the murder of Brian Parker and Ginny Parker." Page replied expertly in the tone of a police officer.

Tommy swallowed the food in his mouth and said righteously, "It's not for me, it's for justice." ”

Tommy and the waiter helped him bring him coffee, first slowly adding sugar cubes and stirring, seeing that Stephen was still staring at him with questioning eyes, he said regretfully: "If I remember correctly, what you just said about life and happiness should have plagiarized me, although I am not original, I forgot which books I borrowed, but it does not prevent me from questioning you at this moment, you plagiarized the lines of my accosting girl, and then ran to ask me what went wrong?" ”

Hearing this, there was silence inside, and after a few seconds, the door opened, and an old man with white hair and a hunched back looked at Page: "Excuse me, is it...... Is there news on my son's case? ”

He was given a chance to get out of prison, and then Brian and his wife were unfortunate enough to meet him, become his target, and be brutally murdered, but fortunately, their son was sent to Patraka's grandparents' house for a vacation during the summer vacation, and escaped.

It's a city smaller than Warwick, Rhode Island, with just over 8,000 people, and it's also the lowest-income city in Florida, and it might have been bankrupt many years ago if it weren't for the large American conglomerate Koch Co., which built its paper mill here and provided jobs for nearly 2,000 citizens.

Gritting his pipe, Paige drove down the road into the town in a sixty percent new family car, holding the steering wheel in one hand, looking around blankly, and asking the other end of the phone, "Are you sure they live here?" I don't have much time, and if I can't find anyone, the rest of my time is just enough to deal with you. ”

More than ten seconds later, an old but alert voice sounded inside: "Who's outside?" ”

Hearing that Page was not here to convey the progress of the state court, the old man's face changed, and he looked up and down the police badge on Page's waist and his numb face: "What are you here to do?" ”

"And after that?" Stephen asked.

The old man, who lived in Patcara, took the Miami Council to court in grief-stricken, but unfortunately, there was no movement after the complaint was filed, and the state court replied that it was always on the waiting list, and they didn't have the money to hire a strong lawyer to help them advance the case, they didn't try, they found some barristers, and said that if they got compensation, they could use most of the money to pay for the lawyer's fees, and donate the rest, they didn't want money, they just wanted someone to pay for the death of their son's family.

Without waiting for Page to reply, as if fearful of losing hope, he turned his head and shouted loudly, "Rachel, Rachel!" It's the police, Brian, and their case is finally progressing! ”

"I'm sorry that there has been no progress on the Miami City Council's case filed by two people regarding the murder of Brian Parker and Ginny Parker by felons who were out on vacation." Paige's voice extinguished the little flame of hope in the old man's eyes without any emotion.

Stephen thought about the name Page and asked, "Your old man's bodyguard?" What did he do for you? ”

Although the convict was brought back to prison with two more life sentences, and the vacation trial program was quickly canceled, the Brians were unable to come back to life.

"Remember to ask Otilia to call her friend and send me some of the same wine." After listening to the gossip, Stephen turned his face and said without recognizing people: "So, what the hell are you doing sitting here instead of filming a variety show?" Get on the ground and don't forget that you signed the show contract! Unless you're going to tell some more stories that I'm interested in. ”

"What the hell went wrong, this one is invincible in Los Angeles, and when I sat in front of them and accosted them, it unfolded well, but why did they leave?" Stephen walked over with his coffee and plate, sat down across from Tommy, and said unhappily.

But Beltt must admit that he later used Tommy's trick to make beauty in philosophy or literature, and then passed it on to Stephen, who also used it a few times in Los Angeles, and the effect was excellent, but he didn't expect to miss it in Miami.

……

The old man had a son named Brian Parker, who died two years ago, at the age of thirty-one, who worked as an umbrella salesman in the city of Miami, and a gentle wife named Ginny Parker, who also died two years ago, at the age of twenty-six, and the two died in a burglary, the offender was a convict who had previously been sentenced to life in prison for killing children, but because of the probationary leave program for felons that Rosario Kennedy was running at the Miami City Council at the time, Let this guy who should have been in the electric chair a long time ago enjoy the humanitarian spirit of the United States towards criminals.

Tommy's aftertaste smacked: "After that...... I felt as if a juicing succubus had possessed her, and the next day at noon, I lay in bed and called my personal trainer for three days off. ”

"I'm waiting for Paige." Tommy eats breakfast and says, "Without him, the rest of the episode would lack a climax." ”

After receiving an affirmative answer, Page parked the car in the parking lot of a living area in the North District, first took out an honorary sheriff's badge and pinned it to his waist, then pulled the car door and got out of the car, according to the address provided on the phone, walked towards an old and dilapidated house with a lawn that had not been mowed for a long time, stood in front of the door, rang the doorbell twice, and found that the doorbell was broken, he knocked on the doorboard:

“Hello？”

But no lawyer is interested, some lawyers tell them that the success rate of this lawsuit is too low, after all, the city government has countless reasons to prevaricate, such as the city councilors who initiated the bill are voted for by the people of Miami, if they file a lawsuit with the city council, the city councillors will say that they are asking for the people's lives, this is the decision of all Miami people, if the state court rules against the city council, whether those councilors will be punished, no one knows, but those councilors can definitely incite public opinion and let all the people attack the state judges, That judge probably won't want to make a living in Florida for the rest of his life.

Tommy shook his head: "No, it's Ortilia, once her friend's winery brought her some red wine, it tasted very good, and Ortilia drank a few more glasses. ”

"First, those two girls know by looking at their clothes, they are locals, just come to the hotel to wait for their friends, pick up friends to do activities together, one of the girls is wearing a Patek Philippe 1951 classic three-way ladies watch on her wrist, I gave Sophia a birthday gift before, about 27,000 yuan, do you think the girl with a down payment on a sports car on her wrist will be tempted by staying in a one-night sea view suite?" Tommy took a sip of his coffee and said in a relaxed tone:

"Second, you're too anxious, I was talking to a girl at Stanford, but I didn't just have breakfast once, I spent two weeks to create a chance encounter with his girlfriend in order to mess up Belt's plan, and I don't talk about love, just talk about life, let her accept the bullshit theory that life is in the world and have fun, and I want to brainwash a person, and I want to go through it imperceptibly and slowly, instead of being like you, one second you are still talking about life in a dignified manner, and the next second I want the two of them to strip naked and go to the beach with you to make waves."

"Are you here to laugh at us? What do you mean? The old woman walked to her husband's side at this time, held each other's shoulders, and the husband and wife supported each other, using each other's bodies to gain strength to support themselves.

"Mrs. Parker, it doesn't look like it's obvious, but if my profile isn't wrong, you should have some Jewish ancestry." Page took the pipe from his mouth and looked at the old woman.

The old woman stared at Page and said impatiently, "Is the United States going to kill Jews too?" You're going to take me to a concentration camp? ”

"No, it's the opposite, can you invite me in, pour me a cup of coffee, and listen to me talk slowly?" Page gestured to the coffee pot in the living room with his pipe, and said to the two of them, "Or, I will leave now, and you will continue to stand in this small town, and you can only helplessly watch your son's murderer take a plane to Washington, D.C., and be promoted to the House of Representatives." ”
