376 Accept the invitation
Chicago's South Side is a crime paradise.
It is the flower of evil formed by the entanglement of various evil forces of gangs and drug dealers.
Seeing him nod, Hank continued:
"My intelligence group is not providing intelligence support work as you think."
"It's in charge of very important work throughout the city, fighting all kinds of violent cases, organized crime, drug dealers and other major cases."
Phillips took his words and said to Ethan:
"To put it simply, they're a sharp knife in the Chicago Police Department, not the kind of sub-investigation department you might expect to do support work."
"In his place, you can get what belongs to you...
Phillips thought about it for a moment and found the right adjective:
"Fun."
Ethan smiled, fun was indeed lacking in him.
He looked at Hank again, the man who could make Phillips pay attention, and sure enough, there were two brushes.
Being able to be in charge of such an important department must have his strengths.
"IMHO."
Ethan cleared his throat: "I don't actually know you, why did you choose me?" ”
"You and I are the same kind of people."
Hank said seriously, "Phillips recommended you, I am very reassuring with you, and I like your style. ”
"My style?"
Ethan narrowed his eyes, "I'll tell you the truth, I'm not a good cop, if you can understand what I mean." ”
"Coincidentally." Hank's serious face smiled:
"I'm not a good cop either."
"I only care about my own people and try to do the right thing."
"I'm sorry, I've seen your file, and I know you like to break the rules, and I'm the same, so I'm telling you, we're the same kind of people."
"Don't worry, you're my friend."
Hank said sincerely: "You come to help me, I will protect you, we take care of each other." ”
"Let's go and kick the bad guys in the ass, shall we?"
Ethan licked his lips and tapped his fingers lightly on the countertop:
"I have some conditions."
Hank and Phillips glanced at each other, and both beamed with joy.
I'm afraid that I want nothing, and it's easy to do it if you have the conditions.
With such a person who knows the roots and has explosive attack power under his hands, he is more comfortable with everything he does.
Hank nodded: "Tell me about it?" ”
Ethan extinguished the cigarette butt: "Obviously, you will be the boss then, I respect that, but I hope... ”
"There is no boss."
Hank interrupted him: "We are friends, don't worry, I know what kind of person you are, I won't treat you like those new subordinates in the bureau." ”
Kidding aside, Phillips could only invite Ethan to work with him.
After witnessing Ethan's strength with his own eyes, how could he ask him to work for himself.
"You work with me, not for me."
Hank emphasized again, and looked at him, "This is my promise. ”
In fact, Hank is a person with a very strong personality, but strong is strong, and he also scores people, he knows that the other party is also a ruthless master, why can't he get along like a friend.
"Thank you."
Ethan smiled and continued:
"I can be a newcomer, but I'm not a rookie."
Hank smiled dumbly, after all this, he knew that the young man in front of him was much stronger than himself, where would he dare to treat him as a rookie.
"Please, who dares to treat you as a rookie." Phillips also smiled and said:
"Detective Ethan Morgan."
"Detective?"
Ethan raised an eyebrow and picked up his coffee.
"That's right, detective." Phillips clasped his hands on his chest and said confidently, "Since we brought you here, we won't send you away with a single officer." ”
"Hank and I still have a lot of old friends, and it's easy to run a detective position for you."
"Detective Morgan, do you like that?"
"Sounds good."
Ethan gestured his cup to them and said with a smile, "I like it a lot." ”
"And when do you need me to come over?"
Seeing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, Hank was overjoyed: "Don't worry, I just got out of prison and haven't joined the company yet." ”
"When I join the company, I'll clean up the intelligence team, and you can come back again."
Ethan asked curiously, "Out of prison?" ”
"That's right." Hank shrugged, "As I said, I'm not a good cop who follows the rules. ”
Ethan shook his head with a smile and stretched out his arm:
"Leave me a good spot, I don't like people to see my computer screen, it's my instinct to be lazy."
"Haha."
Hank and Phiplis looked at each other and smiled, and shook Ethan's hand: "One word is a deal." ”
After talking about the matter, the two of them quickly left.
Ethan got into the Dodge Challenger and headed for the flower shop.
He agreed with Hank that he would leave for Chicago in about two months.
I just quit my job and want to play for a while.
Hank also understands this.
When I came to the flower shop, it has become a sea of flowers, and Ethan has not been idle these days, and has set up the shop with Liviera.
After a few days of rest, Daria quickly recovered and was busy in the store.
"Have you settled everything?"
Seeing Ethan walk through the door, Daria put down the flower pot and stepped forward to give him a warm hug.
"Of course, it's a small thing."
This is his territory, from the mayor to the district attorney to the police department, everyone knows him, and even the FBI people are his own people.
Confirming that he was okay, Daria was relieved.
The serial sacrifice murder case is solved, and the town returns to its former peace.
Two months have passed, and the weather has become colder.
In front of the lakeside villa, Ethan tossed a rucksack into the back seat of a Dodge Challenger and glanced back at the house.
For a long time afterward, I may not come back to live permanently.
As soon as the key was thrown, it flew to the side in an arc.
Siobhan took the key to the house and looked at him reluctantly, "Won't you stay longer?" ”
"Nope."
Ethan shook his head: "I've rested long enough, it's time to get myself moving." ”
In the past two months, he has been circling between several women, living a careless life, and if he doesn't find something to do, he will be decadent.
"You come and stay two or three days a week to make sure the house doesn't go abandoned."
Ethan hugged her tightly in his arms: "I'll be back when I have time, it's just Chicago, it's not very far, you can also fly to see me." ”
Siobhan's life is more regular, and it is more reliable to hand over the house to her.
The others had said goodbye, and now that the house was in order, he could go to Chicago with peace of mind.
Ethan smiled and rubbed Siobhan's face, got in the car and left.
He didn't go to the highway right away, but drove all the way in the direction he remembered, looking at the familiar scene on the side of the road, Ethan smiled at the corner of his mouth.
Nora was now in high spirits, and did not look at it as resistant as before.
The four-man team of Siobhan, Emmett, Brock, and Bunker live a quiet life as a small-town cop, and Daria and Liviera's florist business is slowly picking up, and life is full and pleasant.
Jenny Kender had long since moved out of Banshee Town to live with the children, and hadn't seen her since returning from the West Coast.
But the most regrettable thing is Rebecca.
Procott's villa is still quiet and nowhere to be seen.
During this time, I searched for Rebecca more than a dozen times, and even searched for the Amish gathering place, but I still couldn't find her.
The Dodge challenger turned a corner at the door, rolled up the fallen leaves, and quickly left.
