Chapter 680: A Chance Encounter
I don't know if it's influenced by Jack or the result of the world's self-interpretation, the love lives of these old guys in LAPD are now uneventful, John and Carlis's married life is very stable, and Tim and Lucy are also preparing for their wedding.
On BU's side, Hodgner's wife, Hallie, has long since gotten rid of the effects of postpartum depression, after all, their sons are now able to speak, and they are fluttering their little short legs, happily chasing after the back of their daddy's ass and screaming.
Red and starlet Leila Yaqi were originally a couple that Jack was not very optimistic about, after all, the worlds of the two were too far apart, and he only hoped that a little virgin would mature early in terms of feelings.
Now it seems to be a bit of a mistake, both of them are busy people, maybe because of the beauty of distance, it is rare to get together like glue, quite a bit of a smell of no one else, the sour smell of love makes Emily on the side frown frequently.
Speaking of which, Jack is now half of Leila Yaqi's boss, and the filming of the earthy short drama is gradually on the right track, and the heroine naturally gives priority to her to star.
Maybe even Leila herself didn't expect that the original appearance was just a friendship help, but now it seems that she has a little sign of popularity, and the income settled according to the share is also rising, and it is no longer the same as when she needed to rely on renting a house to maintain the star scene.
The old Hunter couple who were originally dependent on each other after meeting Jack, the lonely retirement life suddenly became lively, and the old CIA agent Joe Mason is now simply staying at their house, and then a little girl Isabel was added, a quirky family of four, living quite happily.
In addition, Jack has also determined that Lyra's old bodyguard who looks like Liam Neeson is definitely a retired CIA agent, and it can be seen from the way he faces Joe Masson, an old-timer, that the two may still be acquaintances.
Unfortunately, although Jack already knew that his name was Brian Mills, he still couldn't remember which movie he was associated with, but it didn't matter, and at his behest, Chris's film and television company paid for Layla's private security.
In other words, Jack is now also half of Brian Mills' (Liam Neeson) boss, which gives him a sense of accomplishment in collecting character cards.
At the end of the lively day, it was midnight, and Jack, who had rarely drunk a little too much, asked Jiejie to drive, and sat in the passenger seat, and in the back seat of the car were Red and Leila, who were hitchhiking.
Leila's uncle's bodyguard, Brian Mills, had already come home from work, and there were three FBIs in one car, and he really didn't need to work overtime.
It is said that the eighteenth change of the female college has not been seen for nearly a year, and Isabel, who originally had a small round face, is no longer the little girl lying on Jack's back before, not only has her size moved up a lot, but her temperament has also matured a lot.
However, after seeing Jack, Isabel immediately turned into a little fan girl, and she couldn't find anything to say by his side, until Aunt Didi couldn't look at it anymore and came up to find an excuse to drag her away.
On the way back, Jie Jie made fun of Jack with a slight sour taste, and a small couple in the back seat happily watched the excitement there, after all, it was rare to see someone eating deflated.
The car drove down the highway and came to the North Hollywood district, which was not far from the Wilshire Police Department's precinct, looking at the familiar streets on both sides, Jack suddenly felt as if he was in a different world, as if he was on duty on the streets of Los Angeles in a patrol police car just yesterday.
Seeing a convenience store on the side of the road, he subconsciously patted Jiejie's arm and motioned for her to pull over, "You don't have much beer in the refrigerator, add some snacks by the way." ”
Jie Jieqiao blushed, knowing what he really wanted to replenish, the two of them almost consumed a whole box of small umbrellas last night, and if they didn't replenish it, they could only make do with plastic wrap in the kitchen.
"Let's go together, I haven't seen Rhett for a long time, it's rare to get together on vacation, I plan to watch the video all night tonight, and I want to prepare some snacks." Leila also blushed slightly, as if she had thought of something, and Red stupidly followed and got out of the car, "I'll help with the things." ”
Jack sighed slightly, it seems that someone's potential in terms of emotional intelligence has been developed to the extreme by Leila, but this is also good, and it is also a good way for couples to complement each other's personalities.
Convenience stores in Los Angeles are usually run by Asians or Latinos, the former mainly South Koreans and Chinese, the latter mostly Mexican, and some from small South American countries such as Nicaragua.
The owners of this convenience store are an elderly Latino couple, which inexplicably reminds Jack of the old couple who took over his grocery store, which is why he subconsciously asked Jiejie to stop and shop here.
The four of them got out of the car and walked into the convenience store, there were not many customers inside, only a couple of their age whispering something affectionately in the snack area.
"Hey!" Seeing that there were also two pairs of handsome men and beautiful women entering the door, the girl in the little couple also greeted them in a friendly way.
Jack was slightly stunned, and saw a familiar face again, not the friendly blonde girl, but the boyfriend next to her, who was shorter than her, a handsome little man with a baby face.
Frankie Muniz is a fairly famous child star in his previous life, "Growing Pains" is well known in Chinese, and this childhood "Malcolm's Family" is more famous in the United States than the former, although it is late.
This TV series is not well-known in China, but Brian Cranston, who plays his father in it, is also very famous, belonging to the kind of person who may subconsciously pull out a gun when he is met by Jack, which is Lao Bai in "Breaking Bad".
Far from it, Jack is not very interested in family comedy, "Malcolm's Family" is only a few episodes in his spare time, and the reason why he knows a little about Frankie Muniz is because he also acted in two very interesting comedy action movies, "Teen Agent Cody" and a sequel.
However, in Jack's impression, the actor went directly to the producer when he became an adult, and only occasionally made cameo appearances in some TV series, because his height is hard, and European and American actors are only 1.65 meters tall, which is not much, and it is really difficult to play with actresses.
However, to his surprise, not only did he seem to feel that the other party's face was familiar, but Red simply called out the other party's name, "You are Johnny McHal?" ”
"Uh" The handsome little baby-faced guy was also surprised that he would be recognized, "Am I already so famous?" ”
"I like your comic book "Blue" very much, and I took a special leave of absence to attend your book signing before."
Red's words couldn't help but make the others smile, well, this is Red's style.
Then Jack was also recognized, cartoonists and families are called writers every day, and everyone uses the word "Writer", although the two are a bit cross-border, but it is common for each other to get inspiration and even cooperate.
Obviously, this Johnny McHal will also pay attention to the best-selling list, and after the two sides have known each other, he immediately reacted and politely touted Jack's debut.
