Chapter 33: Gathering

Maureen's eyes became a little misty, and she pursed her red lips and offered a wet kiss: "No wonder Zoe is crazy about you to the point that she almost broke the promise she made to the family, you are simply Helen of Troy City." ”

Jack couldn't cry or laugh, and said in his heart what is this, but there is one more doubt in his heart, is Zoe's accidental death in the original plot really just because the actor quit and the screenwriter wrote an accident at random? Or it may be reinterpreted by the world, and there are other reasons.

I secretly reminded myself in my heart that I should pay more attention to the situation in the police station during this time, in addition to preventing Zoe's accident from happening, but also to prevent unintentional troubles.

The next day, Jack and Hannah had an evening dinner, and they had promised to invite John and Lucy, who were still rookies, to have a big dinner, and they also called Tim and Angela by the way.

The case of serial murderer Angus Lucius was kept in a low-key manner, a gag order was issued within the police department, and the Los Angeles City Hall, fearful of causing public panic, struck deals with several mainstream media outlets, and all coverage was silenced.

Because the case was solved too quickly, there were not many insiders, and even if it was stabbed on the Internet, a few words would not make any waves.

The only regret is that this time the District Attorney's Office was stared at from above, and the work was too fast, and Tim and Jack, who shot it, only got three days of administrative leave.

This time, Jack was bleeding, he didn't let Hannah spend money, and the ingredients alone cost him nearly 400 dollars, and he deliberately went to the Chinese supermarket to purchase some good quality ingredients, in addition to the rock sugar elbow that everyone strongly demanded, he also made a bunch of hard dishes such as squirrel fish and salt-baked chicken.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, everyone arrived, and Jack finally finished working in the kitchen, and opened the system with satisfaction, and a notification appeared on it: Congratulations to the host for improving his cooking skills (proficient) to cooking skills (proficient) through his own learning.

Now that he finally has a second mastery skill besides pistol shooting, although cooking has not directly helped him in his police career, being able to sit down and enjoy a meal with friends after a case is the best way to relieve his mood and expel negative emotions.

Today, Tim brought a bottle of his favorite Gordon Gin for everyone to taste, also known as gin, which is one of Lao Mei's favorite spirits.

Everyone ate and chatted, and the topic changed a few times, and finally returned to the serial murder case.

Hannah pouted, "Do you know what happened last night after you left?" ”

"The two detectives from the Crime Squad actually found Zoe and complained to us, saying that we should notify the suspects before they entered the house to search."

Angela sneered: "Superintendent Anderson doesn't coax a baby, this case has not been officially handed over to the Serious Crime Unit, they have no reason to complain about us, only waste will complain when they don't get the credit." ”

Hannah nodded: "Zoe directly invited them out of the office, and said that if they had been cautious about Kara's family's report, the two girls would not have suffered so much." ”

"The bald detective named Mota has a deformed face with anger."

"So, that's the end of it?" Jack meant what he meant by this, he said it to Tim, and the body cameras of both of them fell for some reason during the chase yesterday, and what happened in the end, only the two of them know.

"Since the above has been spoken, of course it is over, anyway, the murderer is dead, and no one will care about some details, right?"

Tim's face was light.

"Dr. Carris said that the girl named Emma would take at least three months to fully recover, and that it would be too cheap for the beast to die like this."

Hannah's expression was still a little angry, and the case touched a deep pain in her heart.

Jack smiled and clinked glasses with Tim and drank the rest of the wine: "Okay Hannah, we're just cops, not God, we did what we could, let's have something fun, here's gossip time." ”

John smiled mysteriously and began to break the news: "When I was in Superintendent Gray's office, someone happened to come in and say that he was considering applying for the superintendent's office. ”

Angela, who was eating happily on the side, froze when she heard this, and it took a long time to swallow the food in her mouth, and looked at Tim in disbelief, he was the only one present who met the qualifications.

"No way, bastard Tim, you were still laughing at us when Bishop and I were competing for the position of detective."

She followed Tim's usual frowning and talking: "I don't understand why you two are like this, you are so ruthless to leave the patrol team, and it is fun to be a patrol officer." ”

After saying that, he slapped Tim on the shoulder, "Huh? Are you going to give up your fun now? ”

Tim's old face didn't blush: "I just don't want to wait for you to officially become a police detective, I am commanded by you every day, and I entered the police station two years earlier than you." ”

Angela still snorted angrily and pointed at him with her finger, and her tone was fierce: "You'd better pray that you can pass the police superintendent exam in one go, otherwise I will become a police detective first, and I will arrest you as soon as there is a case." ”

Tim launched a counterattack: "Angela, don't you tell me what happened to you and that rich boy brother lawyer first?" ”

Everyone's eyes looked at this plain and grinning girl, including Lucy, who was addicted to food because she tasted Jack's craft for the first time, and they all looked up with blazing eyes.

Jack noticed that Angela was unusually blushing and stammering.

"We've only been on dates a few times, can't I have a little bit of a private life?"

Lucy's eyes widened, and she looked incredulous: "It's the lawyer who helped him retrieve the suitcase from the thief, and in turn wanted to complain about your violent law enforcement?" ”

Jack raised his hand to prove it: "That time I was at the scene, the two of them had a heated argument, and Angela even threatened to slap the guy in the face." ”

"Wow!" The people who eat melons have shown expressions of watching the show.

"Wesley later apologized to me because one of my four older brothers was getting married, and if I couldn't get a man to accompany me to the wedding right away, my mom would match me and the best man all night."

"So?" Everyone spoke in unison.

"That groomsman smells of cat litter, and I don't think he has a cat at all."

Angela smiled sweetly: "Besides, Wesley is indeed very handsome, and he is also very gentlemanly when he apologizes." ”

Hannah suddenly showed a look of hindsight, slapped the door of the head, and was so excited that her voice was raised by 8 degrees.

"So you're going to suddenly ask me today what Jack and I usually look out for in a house."

"Oh my God, you're already planning to live together, and you're still planning to hide it from me, aren't we already the best friends?"
