Chapter 116: The Prosecutor's Circle of Friends (Part I)
Three sedans slowly drove out of the gate of the palace manor, and on each side of the majestic gate, there were four warriors on tall horses, wearing armor, helmets, bows and arrows on their shoulders, steel swords at their waists, and spears in horizontal grips.
Watching the eight mighty warriors gradually disappear from sight from the back window of the car, Zhang Sheng couldn't help but feel a sense of what time was going to be tonight.
There is no doubt that the Sureno region and the eastern provinces of the kingdom are two worlds, where there are more stereotypes and even rules and regulations that differ from the laws of the eastern regions, and of course, the Sureno region is very modern compared to the small closed kingdoms ruled by sheikhs in some African countries
Zhang Sheng sat in the black business car in the middle, in the luxury car, Zhang Sheng and Sasha sat opposite each other, and on the side of the seat, sat a swarthy woman in her thirties, named Mary, one of the more important subordinate officials of the chief, and her position was difficult to explain in the local language, but in official English documents, she was called "the confidential clerk of the Duke of Sureno".
Don't look at her appearance is not amazing, no different from ordinary black women, in fact, I heard that she was a famous talented woman in her tribe in her early years, and graduated from the top student of the royal academy in the capital.
Sasha, who was sitting opposite Zhang Sheng, was puzzled, thinking that Zhang Sheng would ground her, but who knew that in the end, Zhang Sheng just said that he would have dinner with her friends, and he couldn't guess what Zhang Sheng was thinking.
In fact, Zhang Shengxun丨 regretted a little after reprimanding Sasha and seeing Sasha's tears in her eyes, speaking of which, Sasha was also a victim of this political transaction, especially from her experience, she knew that she was a particularly talented, independent, and European and American thinking of a professional woman, but when she encountered this kind of thing, she did not go back to her European "hometown" to develop, but stayed in Tannick for the sake of her family and married herself, this quality is also very valuable.
According to modern people's thinking, it was not a big deal, and he who blew his beard and stared at his eyes was not a tyrant? In fact, it was because he was in a bad mood at the time.
Thinking about it now, Zhang Sheng is still a little ashamed.
Sasha and her friends agreed to have a meal at the Hre Grand Hotel, the most expensive hotel in Sureno.
The lobby manager on the first floor of the hotel got the prompt of the Marie Clerk, and actually knelt down on one knee to kiss Zhang Sheng's instep when he greeted Zhang Sheng, obviously he was a member of the Sureno tribe, Rao was so, he was also a little too excited, after all, the tribesmen only had the rule of kneeling when the palace officially met the big chief.
On the contrary, the waiter in the lobby, it seems that most of the people who are not from the Sureno nationality are facing Zhang Sheng, and they treat it with a normal heart, humble and polite, but not as exaggerated as the lobby manager.
Zhang Sheng and his entourage, under the personal guidance of the lobby manager, took the VIP elevator to the private room on the second floor.
Zhang Sheng and his entourage consisted of five people, Zhang Sheng, Sasha, Mary and two attendants, namely Miao Laodao and Big Dog. After entering the private room, Mary arranged everything with the hotel, and waited in the rest area next to the floor-to-ceiling window with Miao Laodao and the big dog.
Sasha's friends are a man and a woman, a newlywed white couple, the blonde woman Lowry is Sasha's colleague, a prosecutor in the Tambur District Prosecutor's Office, and the man Anthony is the husband of Prosecutor Lowry, an American, Lori met when she was traveling in the United States at the beginning of this year, the two fell in love at first sight, they got married not long ago, and Lowry is applying to immigrate to the United States.
Lowry has great respect for Zhang Zhidu, but Anthony is different, when he heard that Zhang Sheng is a local chieftain, he jokingly made a few jokes, obviously thinking that the title of chief is primitive and uncivilized.
After hearing that Sasha was Zhang Sheng's wife, Anthony's eyes were extremely strange, obviously thinking that it was incredible, even in the United States, the country of immigration, interracial marriages were rare.
Next, Anthony asked Zhang Sheng a few tricky questions, such as whether the power of the big chief is beyond that of the local government, such as hearing that some primitive tribal chiefs in Africa still have the right to the first night, is this the case here, etc., Lowry secretly gave him a look, but he did not restrain at all.
Sasha's face was hesitant, she just drank slowly, she had already thought that she would be embarrassed in front of her friends today, but Lowry's husband was really a little excessive.
Zhang Sheng smiled and asked Anthony, "I heard that you are a neurosurgeon?"
Speaking of his profession, Anthony was even more arrogant, saying: "Yes, I am now at the California Health Care Center, and my mentor is Dr. James Smith.
Hearing the names of the California Medical Center and Smith, Zhang Sheng smiled, but he didn't expect to meet an old acquaintance.
When he operated on Lu Lao, the Lu family invited this doctor Smith to give him a hand, but Smith, who was not convinced when he did the operation, disagreed with himself and walked away, after all, he was already a world-class neurosurgeon at that time, and the overall technical level of neurosurgery in China was already a gap between developed countries, and he was a nobody in China, and the proposed surgical method seemed to be beyond the reach of human beings, which made him feel that he was simply child's play.
However, as a doctor, he calmed down a little and went back to the operating room to observe the whole process of his surgery, and since then he has completely changed his attitude, and often sends emails to exchange some medical cases and academic opinions on brain science with him.
But no, this Anthony is his student.
Anthony said with infinite admiration: "You may not have heard of my mentor's name, but in the field of neurosurgery, he is well-known and has the most successful brain surgeries in the world, and his published books have broken through many old concepts in the field of neurosurgery and made outstanding contributions to the study of our human brain" After a pause, he smiled, "Mr. Chief, is it boring for me to say this?" It's that you, the chief of the buns, don't understand the meaning of these topics related to human development.
Zhang Sheng smiled and said, "It's not boring, Mr. Smith and I are old acquaintances, when you return to Los Angeles, remember to help me greet him, you said that the Chinese name is Zhang Sheng, he will know." ”
Anthony was stunned and said, "You know my mentor?" and then felt incredible, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chief, we have a lot of Dr. Smith in the United States, not to mention that even if they have operated on you, they may not always remember you." ”
Sasha was a little angry when she heard this, even if Zhang Sheng bragged and told me, you vaguely agreed, so why be so serious?
Zhang Sheng smiled: "I should know your mentor, James Smith of the California Medical Center, the neurosurgeon of your hospital, there won't be a second James Smith with the same reputation, right?"
