Chapter 321: Cocktails and Reflexology
"Cheers!"
At night, the lights come on and everyone gathers at an Italian bar introduced by Rossi.
Jack doesn't quite understand the Italian bar culture, and in his opinion it's more of a restaurant than a bar.
While the menu does offer a wide variety of cocktails, there's also an abundance of food, and there's even a pizza oven and dough prep room in their open kitchen.
Jack rarely drinks, and although he always carries the silver flask that the twin hairy sisters gave him, it actually contains the "water of life" diluted to 75 degrees by him.
Authentic "eaux-de-vie" refers to vodka distilled to 96 degrees, which is no longer even suitable for disinfecting wounds, and Jack mixed some lemon juice into it.
This thing can be used to ward off the cold when working in cold areas, and can also be used as an emergency disinfectant to clean wounds, anyway, he is not for himself, and the double pain of alcohol and lemon juice will make people feel instantly uplifted.
Jack even brought a leather case for the small silver flask to carry with him, and stuffed a small bottle of Yunnan Baiyao and a quick-acting heart-saving pill inside.
He carried these little things with him, of course, to disguise his healing skills, and if something happened that couldn't be explained, everything would be blamed on the "magical" Oriental medicine.
As for the source of these drugs, it is actually not difficult to figure out.
In Laomei, some slightly larger Chinese supermarkets will do a little "gray business", usually near the cash register, or hidden in some inconspicuous little corners.
If you can understand Chinese characters, then congratulations on discovering the treasure, you will find that these boxes printed with square characters contain everything from "white and black" cold medicine, cefixia, chlortetracycline eye ointment, Ma Yinglong hemorrhoid ointment and even fast-acting heart pills.
Getting back to business, everyone naturally talked about Jack's previous experience in Wyoming.
Everyone in the room, including Rossi, had very little contact with the reservation.
In this country, the West was once regarded as a place outside the law, and cowboy culture was admired, but now, there are only two places left in the country that are truly outside the law, one is the U.S.-Mexico border, and the other is the reservation.
The former is powerless, and the current Golden Retriever president even proposed to build a "wall" this kind of plan, but considering the length of the border between the two countries. Probably this can only be done in some key areas.
As for the latter, of course, it is the result of the ignorance of the whole society, consciously or unconsciously.
Jack tried to pick and choose everything he could say, including the final ending, and he didn't hide the idea of tucking away to the friends of BU.
Of course, it was impossible for him to directly admit that he was involved in the killing of those drilling camp security, but even Emily had already learned a considerable degree about Jack's behavior through the "plane crash" incident and the time spent together.
Everyone is an adult who has experienced a lot, especially Emily, who is only seven or eight years older than Jiejie, but her past experience is much richer.
Jack had heard that she had worked undercover overseas, but he had never heard her talk about those pasts, but once Jiejie once inadvertently said that not to look at Emily's usual big grin, but there is a heart full of holes under her strong exterior.
As for Rossi and Hodgner, they will not care, they can only say that they are sincerely pleased that Jack can always adhere to "procedural justice".
Today's Jack drinks a little too much, although cocktails originated in North America, but he usually rarely comes into contact with them, and most of his knowledge of European and American alcohol comes from recipes.
But the Italians seemed to have a special talent for cocktails, and Jack tried Garibaldi, Blue Angel and Puccini.
These sweet and sour things with fruity aromas are really easy to eat, and before you know it, you will enter a slightly drunken state.
This made Jack a little expectant, if his bayberry tree can successfully bear fruit in a few years, he must soak dozens of catties of bayberry wine, well, it seems that this year he can start soaking mulberry wine and plum wine.
Healing skills are actually effective for drunkenness, which can make people wake up instantly, but Jack today especially enjoys this slightly drunken feeling.
Killing Chad Brown was done on purpose, although the attack was very hidden, the lightning and flint were mixed lightly, and the moment the subway entered the station was calculated, it seemed seamless, and no one could find fault with it.
But it was clear that Hodgner saw it, and Jack could see it too, because if Hodgner hadn't hesitated at the time, he would still have had time to pounce and pull Chad Brown onto the platform.
Jack is now more and more satisfied with this top boss, he can resist things and take the blame, never pass pressure down, and he is not a virgin or pedantic, which is simply perfect.
After taking a comfortable hot shower, Jack put on his dressing gown and walked into the bedroom, unsurprisingly seeing a beautiful woman lying on his big bed.
"Aren't you afraid of being discovered by Emily?" Jack leaned into Jiejie's ear and sniffed her hair, if memory serves, Jiejie and Emily's rooms were adjoining when they checked in.
"When she went back to her room, she deliberately pretended she was drunk." Jiejie laughed and said that someone was chatting with her and giving her a foot massage, which was sore and tingling.
The two chatted with each other, mainly about some details in the Wind River Valley case, obviously Jiejie was more concerned about someone's battle process, and he talked about him vigorously.
"I swear to God, I really didn't get too nervous this time." Jack felt wronged, why didn't he understand the intention of Jiejie's words at this time.
"Hmph, I asked Garcia to check the files, and that Jane Banner is really a rare beauty."
Alas, Jack sighed in his heart, woman, sometimes the more gentle you are, the more she thinks you have a ghost in your heart.
He curled his index finger and swirled vigorously in the center of the girl's white and tender feet, while at the same time clamping her calf with his arm to prevent her from breaking free.
"Help, hahaha, don't, spare me."
Jiejie's whole body trembled violently, trying to kick Jack away with her other leg, but unexpectedly, in the next second, they fell into the clutches together.
"Please, calculate the time, how can I have that time to do bad things, I was called to Maryland by Hodgner at noon that day."
Jack's calm tone was full of helplessness, but his subordinates were merciless, and the "torture" lasted for several minutes before he reluctantly let go of the pair of delicate jade feet.
