Next Chapter

American Federation, Hollywood, 330 years of the Ming calendar, 1698 AD.

"Is this the third son of the Shen family?"

The heroic female inspector Ouyang held iced tea in one hand and a telescope in the other, looking at the movie prop shop in the distance.

There, a handsome young man of about twenty years old, was greeting guests.

"Yes, he is Shen Yu, the third child of the Shen family, but his foundation is innocent, after dropping out of New York University two years ago, he did not enter the family, but worked in the society, and is a good person."

Inspector Ouyang was next to a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard, in his forties, who was wearing a fancy short-sleeved shirt, and looked no different from the little hooligans on the street.

"You think he's a good guy?"

A thirty-year-old short-haired female inspector, with her hair dyed black, turned her head and glanced at Inspector Sun, a famous tricky detective back then, an idol in the hearts of many younger generations, and now she is a middle-aged uncle, with a shiny feeling.

"Ouyang, the day after tomorrow is my wife's wedding anniversary, let's hurry up and finish the matter today, I took half a month's leave, and I am ready to accompany my wife...... Don't worry, I can't be wrong in my opinion, Shen Yu is really a good person. ”

Inspector Sun snorted.

"But ......"

Officer Ouyang was still a little hesitant.

The Shen family is a well-known family on the East Coast, how can Shen Yu have a relationship with a good person?

However, what Inspector Sun said is also true.

Many children of big families have the will to be self-reliant, but these self-employed people are all taking the elite route and relying on the support of their parents, like Shen Yu, who left the family and worked outside alone, and it was really working at the bottom of the society, tired and bitter every day, and there was almost no such thing.

It is difficult to achieve people through hardships and hardships, and it will only waste life and energy, as for the people who succeed because of this, it is because there is only one life and there is no comparison.

"Well, I thought the same way back then, and I watched him for a while, only to find out that he was really not that kind of person...... He may just be afraid of death, so he doesn't have anything to do with the family.

No one can hide it from my eyes, you think too much. ”

Officer Sun sighed boredly, if it weren't for the fact that Inspector Ouyang had a higher position than him, a little bigger background, and the favor he owed her before, he wouldn't have helped him.

"By the way, why did you suddenly care about the Shen family, what, do you want to kill the Shen family?"

"No, someone asked me to check the foundation of this person, seeing is believing, I'm a little interested in him."

A heroic short-haired female inspector tilted her head and looked at the teenager who was sorting out props and videotapes inside.

On the top of a hill in the distance, there is a line of glittering text, Welcome to Hollywood.

It's plaintext.

……

In another time and space, Zheng He's fleet did not bypass the Cape of Good Hope, and in this world, the brilliant fleet continued to move forward, forward.

Three hundred years ago, when Zheng He's big ship crossed the Cape of Good Hope and arrived on the continent of Europa, everything was different.

Muskets crushed the charge of noble knights, mud-stained boots stepped into churches, nobles and cardinals who killed angels (messengers of the Celestial Empire) were guillotined, the Ming Empire was deeply involved in the continent of Europa, and received a huge amount of loot.

When a steady stream of silver, gold, spices, etc. flowed back to the Ming Dynasty, when the world map was drawn, the bureaucracy and the empire could no longer close their eyes.

What's more, their son of heaven, Hongwu Emperor Zhu Di wanted to make meritorious contributions and become the first emperor of the ages, to clear his body of criticism of killing his nephew and seizing the throne, and he also received the support of another more critical or even the most critical figure in history.

With the support of that figure, history took a turn here, Zhu Di and his ministers set a new direction of progress, navigation and colonization became the mainstream of the Ming Dynasty, and in the following three hundred years, the footprints and immigrants of the Ming people spread all over the world.

Science and technology has also been rapidly improved in conflicts and wars, and has promoted social progress, and the Ming Dynasty has not only successfully continued, but also radiated culture to the world.

Although there have been many twists and turns in the middle, allies have become enemies, and colonies have become independent countries, but now there is only one super empire in the world, that is, the Ming Dynasty, and the United States Federation is just a follower of the Ming Dynasty.

The people of the Ming Dynasty, with dual citizenship, can even serve as officials here in the United States.

This corner of the city called Los Angeles has a lot of rain throughout the year, and the weather is good, and it has a variety of terrain, so it has formed a movie city called Hollywood.

Twenty years have passed since the end of the last world war, and now the development of science and technology is similar to that of the seventies in another world, when color televisions and video recorders are becoming popular, and mobile phones and computers are far away.

Movies are the center of entertainment, and Hollywood is the largest film and television base in the United States, where people of all colors gather to find their American dream.

Among these people, Shen Yu is also included.

Not only did he serve in two crews, but he also worked night shifts in this props shop, and he was busy every day, but he never slackened off.

"Do you think such a person can have any bad intentions? He works more than 12 hours a day, purely relying on the physical strength of young people to support it, I admire his perseverance and persistence, such a person is not a good person, who is?

How Ouyang, do you have a sister who wants to marry him? ”

Officer Sun said with a smile, and Ouyang gave him a roll of his eyes.

"No, I'm single, the commission I accepted this time is just to investigate and see what Shen Yu is doing here, some people say that Shen Tianbao in Tianyitang gave his younger brother a lot of money."

The two chatted and chatted, and soon at nine o'clock in the evening, Shen Yu finished reading the book that director Wang Sirong taught you how to make movies under the light, and then turned off the lights and prepared to get off work.

After packing up his things and about to leave, a car stopped at the door of the prop shop, the driver pressed the whistle twice, and there was a lady in the car who wore sunglasses and a headscarf, and wrapped herself tightly, waved her hand to Shen Yu and motioned for him to come up.

She hid herself very well, and no one recognized her, but at this moment, Inspector Sun, who was eating a hamburger, choked himself in one bite, and his face turned red.

Others can't recognize this woman, but Inspector Sun knows her, and she can recognize her when she turns into ashes, this is his wife, who has been with him for 17 years, gave birth to a son and a daughter for him, and never abandons him, all kinds of women who care and take care of him!

You look at her graceful figure, you look at her crystal skin, she is his goddess......

Everyone in the police station laughed at a flower stuck in cow dung and joked that something would happen sooner or later.

Today, something really happened!

Although Inspector Ouyang on the side didn't know what was going on, she quickly understood that the woman who could make Inspector Sun so angry was naturally Lao Sun's wife or daughter.

She sat obediently in the driver's seat, like a good girl, motionless.

The divorce rate is high among police officers, and even higher among front-line police officers in big cities.

People who stare into the abyss are also stared at by the abyss, and the policemen who deal with criminals all day long will have negative situations such as anger, suspicion, not returning home at night, violence, etc., and then there will be problems in the family.

Lao Sun's wife is envied by many policemen, not only because she is as beautiful as a flower, but more importantly, in 17 years of married life, she has been conscientiously taking care of the family, and she is gentle and considerate, she is the last pure land in Lao Sun's heart.

"Ouyang, you follow me to follow them."

Lao Sun's expression suddenly calmed down and said.

"Brother Sun, things must not be what you think, what happened below, I swear I will never tell anyone."

Officer Ouyang nodded obediently, but his heart was full of panic.

Lao Sun turned off the walkie-talkie and didn't let her have a chance to talk.

By the way, today she rushed over from out of town, but she only contacted Lao Sun privately, and when she came out together, no one knew.

Although he had a gun on his waist, Inspector Ouyang felt the biting cold.

Inspector Sun is an outlier in the police force, just like Shen Yu, who has now given up his billions of net worth to work outside, he works hard, does not collect black money, is sympathetic to his subordinates, and is decisive, everyone says that he is a good person, but what if one day, his world collapses?

What would he do if there was a glimmer of redemption?
