The garden lights were turned on and laughter rang out.

"Huh."

Ethan flicked his wrist and the basketball easily sank into the net.

"Good shot."

Kevin clapped his palms and panted to his knees: "It's been a long time since I've touched the ball, or else." ”

"It's not going to be 11:0, is it?"

Ethan laughed, and the basketball played a few tricks in his hand.

When the two arrive, Veronica screams and changes into her swimsuit, and Kevin brags about his basketball skills, and the two make a bet to start a one-on-one bullfight.

"Give money, give money."

Ethan snapped his fingers and happily took the five dollars.

After three games, Kevin was defeated.

"Has she always been like this?" Ethan's palm turned, and the basketball twitched on his fingertips.

"That's right."

Kevin wiped the sweat from his face and looked up: "I've known her for many years, not only Fiona, but Veronica too, the more sad she is, the more happy she has to play." ”

"It's this kind of character that makes them best friends."

"You know, that's the only way to make them forget about the difficulties that life has brought to them."

"Makes sense."

Ethan flicked the basketball and threw it into the storage box in the corner.

"Hey."

Veronica saw the two of them walking up the stairs and said pleasantly, "You bastard, you should have invited us over a long time ago." ”

"I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Ethan threw up his hands and apologized.

Inside the jacuzzi, two mermaids, one black and one white, are enjoying a rare rest.

I scooped a spoonful of water from the pool and washed the sweat off my body.

He also sat in the jacuzzi in his big pants, hugged Fiona, picked up the red wine and took a sip of it comfortably.

"Whoa."

The water splashed down, and Veronica waved her arm: "Damn, I just knew that you were rich, I didn't know you were so rich." ”

It wasn't until more than an hour had passed that she recovered from her surprise.

"No matter how rich I am, I only eat three or four meals a day."

Ethan smiled and put her head on the edge of the pool with Fiona, looking at the starry sky.

The next morning, Ethan was awakened by a commotion.

"Good morning."

Fiona was draped in a white sheet, half-hidden, her body undulating.

"Good, very good."

Ethan was very satisfied with the wake-up call and immediately rolled over and put her down.

An hour later, the two walked out of the master bedroom in good spirits, Veronica was watching TV in the living room, and the sound of basketball was heard outside.

"Good health."

Seeing the two of them walking down the stairs, Veronica quickly got up and turned off the TV, she knocked on her watch, and said with a wicked smile: "For more than half an hour, it hasn't stopped." ”

"Aren't you jealous?"

Fiona ran over and slapped her on the buttocks.

"Cut."

Veronica said sourly, "I have Kevin too." ”

Fiona was always relieved, afraid that a few children would be late for school, and after the battle ended, she urged Ethan to send her back.

Calling Kevin, Ethan sent the men home.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a chaotic scene, the kitchen was ping-pong, Monica, who rarely took care of her, was making breakfast with a numb scalp, and a bunch of children were waiting to be fed.

Seeing Ethan enter the door, the strong black woman who hugged Liam last night was so frightened that her hand trembled.

"Bang~"

Ethan threw it away: "Breakfast, eat on the road, I'm going to be late for school." ”

Carl and the others were already hungry, so they hurriedly grabbed the fast food in the bag, and then left with Ethan in a noisy manner, leaving Monica looking at the fried eggs on the plate with a stiff face.

Fiona ignored her at all, and seeing that Carl and the others were all safe, she immediately turned around and went upstairs.

Back at the police station, Ethan walked briskly to the Chase room.

Unexpectedly, in addition to Hank, there were people who came earlier than him.

Antonio, who he hadn't seen for a long time, was walking out of the office with his feet, full of energy.

"Hey."

Ethan walked forward quickly and clapped his shoulders with him: "Are you sure your body is rested?" ”

"Pretty sure."

Antonio smiled and raised his arm and showed off his biceps: "It's almost rusty, I'm ready to find a few bad guys to clean up." ”

"That's good, I'm sure you'll be fine."

Ethan slapped his palms with Antonio again, and when he tried to pull it back, he was firmly grasped by the other party.

"I'm sure you'll be fine."

Looking into Ethan's eyes, Antonio said seriously: "Come on, the interview is done once." ”

"Huh?"

Ethan looked at him, then at the office.

"Don't pretend." Antonio patted Ethan's shoulder hard: "Hank has already told me, with you taking the lead, I don't worry, if anyone is not convinced, I will be the first to clean him up." ”

Ethan's strength is obvious to all.

His own son was also rescued with the help of the other party, how could Antonio have an opinion, after a short loss, he felt more happy for Ethan.

"Thank you."

There's nothing to hide, Ethan just didn't expect Hank to make it clear to him so quickly.

While the two were talking, Hank walked out of his office.

This guy has changed into a formal uniform and looks energetic, he also needs to accept the conversation today, and the two of them can be said to be rising together.

"Let's go change our clothes."

Hank's face was proud, and he opened his mouth to urge, "Hurry up, the time is arranged." ”

"Right now."

Ethan threw some small objects on the table, and with a bad taste for Antonio to keep it a secret, he hurried downstairs.

The formal wear that has been sealed in the locker for a long time finally has a place to use.

I only wore it two or three times, and I had to change it again.

Picking up a large-brimmed hat with a white checkered circle, Ethan slammed the door shut.

The internal promotion process will be relatively simple.

All aspects of identity and background are clear to everyone, and this time it is the initiative of the senior management of the police department, so naturally everything is green.

However, although the procedures had been accelerated, it was already noon when I returned to the 21st Precinct.

Ethan's light blue shirt was replaced by a white one.

The color squares on the big brimmed hat glow golden.

The armband on the dress has changed from blue on a white background to gold on a white background, and there are three more arrows on the new sleeves, which is the sheriff's logo.

The level of the position is reflected one by one through these small details.

Ethan took off his large-brimmed hat and pushed the door open.

By noon, when the temperature had risen, he fanned himself with his hat, ripped off his tie, and unbuttoned the top two buttons, which were so damn that he was strangling.

"Bump."

A muffled sound made him quickly turn his head.

Coke cups, falling to the ground, brown liquid, splashed onto the smooth upper.

Burgess was stunned, his eyes wide.

Thank you for your support, thank you!
