Chapter 104: Sudden Bad News

Raymond was stabbed to death.

In the early hours of last night, after he and a few brothers were drinking, Big Mac and Becky went to the dance floor to dance and take advantage of other girls.

Davis, on the other hand, sat in the box with Raymond and quarreled, a habit that lasted for many years, and whenever the two brothers had a drink, they would quarrel over different views on something.

But they all think that they are right, and they refuse to admit defeat, so they have to argue like two children.

That's why Big Mac and Becky left, and Arcade was no exception.

However, not long after she walked out of the box, she met the guy who had coaxed her to make a movie!

This guy was beaten by Davis and his face was swollen, but now when he meets Arcade, he naturally won't let her go, and directly called his brothers to catch her.

As a result, Arcades ran back to the box first and told Raymond about the matter.

Knowing that someone was going to bully his girlfriend, Davis, who was already drunk, got even more up, and was about to kill the dog with a gun.

But Raymond stopped his younger brother, and he still kept some sanity, wanting to get the two brothers Damai and Xiaobei back to support the field first.

It's just that the plan can't catch up with the change, and the gang found this box and started fighting directly because of the large number of people.

It was during this process that Davis was entangled by two people and the gun was not drawn.

And the black scout who Davis had beaten took out his knife, but when he was about to attack Davis, he was blocked by Raymond with his body.

A full eight cuts, right in the chest.

Raymond collapsed in a pool of blood, and Davis, in a fit of rage, shot the black man in the arm.

Badman also received the news in his bed in the early hours of the morning, when Raymond had been taken to the hospital and was in the process of being resuscitated.

Unfortunately, it wasn't until eight o'clock in the morning that the doctor declared that the rescue was ineffective for several people, and the knife was stabbed into the heart, and Raymond's accumulated fat could not save him.

When Donde received the call, Raymond's body had already entered the morgue, and Badman's purpose was to inform him to attend Raymond's funeral in two days.

"Didi, Didi." The phone hung up, but the original smile on Tang De's face disappeared.

"What's wrong? Tang Dynasty? Anne Hathaway saw something strange in the man's expression, hugged Donde from behind, and warmed Donde with her chest.

"It's nothing ......" Tang De patted her hand, turned his head and kissed her, but there was no charm in this kiss, only comfort.

"I'm going to a friend's funeral in a few days."

"Are they close friends?"

"It's not."

"But I think you're sad." Anne Hathaway stared at Tang De intently, and Tang De, who was completely quiet without a smile, seemed to have changed his appearance, this was not his usual appearance, but he was more attractive than usual.

She felt that this man was a mystery, obviously looking so young, but she always felt that youth was just an appearance of him, a disguise, like an iceberg hidden under the water, so that she couldn't help but explore more.

"Really?" Tang De smiled, patted her hands, got up and walked towards the house.

Raymond's funeral was set in his old neighborhood, which he had willing, and he had told others that he couldn't leave the neighborhood, or it would be like a tree missing its roots.

But in the end, he broke his promise, moved out of the old neighborhood, and replaced it with a big and new house.

But he eventually came back here, perhaps because of the revenge of the old neighborhood, or maybe because of the fate of his skin.

Tang De's side did not stop because of this incident, he and Raymond are not close friends, if Jimmy died unexpectedly, then he may really be more sad.

In the past two days, he has been busy in the company, because there are really a lot of things.

The shooting of several large-scale commercials, the work arrangements of Kayden, Cindy, and Lilina, as well as the MV taken over by CAA.

Vice President Edinson is already smiling from ear to ear, and recently because of the golden sign of Tang De, many customers have come to his agent to sign an MV all-inclusive contract, which made him make a splash at the president's meeting.

But what made him even happier was to see Brady's deflated appearance.

When Carl and Tang De talked on the phone, they were speculating about the love-hate relationship between the two vice presidents, but unfortunately he joined too late and didn't hear any gossip.

And Tang De has also received several new MVs, first of all, the MV promised BeyoncΓ©, she has now joined Jay-Z's company, and is gearing up to release her first solo album.

The second is Mariah Carey, the new album MV of the diva singer, who just terminated her contract with Viking Records some time ago, and has now switched to Universal's Island Records, and has also set up her own personal music company.

It was very easy to find an MV director with her connections, but as she said, she liked Tang De's style very much, so she deliberately found CAA to cooperate with Tang De and gave her a lot of budget.

In addition to these two, Tang De has not taken over other MV shooting work, because he is no longer the original Tang De, and now the focus of his work has gradually shifted from MV to movies.

As for the moment, let's take a break.

However, after talking about resting and taking care of the company's affairs, Tang De, who stayed at home, couldn't be idle, and after taking over the job of buying vegetables at home, he planned to go out to the supermarket.

Going downstairs and passing through the mirror, Tang De accidentally found that his hair seemed to have not been cut for a long time, and the sideburns on both sides had grown to the chin, as if they were about to be connected with the beard.

"It's ugly." Don De decided to cut his hair by the way when he went to the supermarket.

Driving all the way to a nearby large member supermarket, Tang De pushed the cart and looked at the surrounding environment while taking vegetables.

The lights are bright, the people who come and go are very qualified, and there is no loud noise.

Unlike ordinary supermarkets in the Bronx, there are dogs barking, children crying, couples arguing, and even the faint smell of urine.

After Donde went once, the job was completely handed over to Carmela.

"It's better here." Tang De muttered to himself and threw a few cans into the shopping cart, and just wanted to walk to the fresh food area, when the mobile phone suddenly rang.

"Hey, Badman."

"Donde, Raymond's viewing ceremony is scheduled for the weekend."

"Got it."

"Where's Davis?"

"He's still in the police station, I paid the money, and he'll be released on bail."

Funerals in the United States are roughly divided into three steps, one is to observe the ceremony, also known as a vigil. The embalmed remains are placed in the coffin for a brief public view, where relatives and friends can commemorate the remains.

The second is the memorial service, which is usually held in a church or cemetery, and may have an introduction or picture display of the deceased's life, and the family will also share the story of the deceased.

The third is burial, under professional prayer, the body is buried in the earth, and then the relatives have a short farewell.

Tang De naturally participated in the ceremony, although he was not considered Raymond's intimate hair, but the relationship between the two was actually closer than many friends who had been estranged for a long time.

Hanging up the phone, Don De looked at the dead fresh food in the freezer in a daze, the glass reflecting his silent face in the reflection.

After that, he reached out and picked out the selected fish and prawns from the freezer, and suddenly remembered what Raymond had said to him yesterday, saying that he had already recorded a new song and was confident in it.

For some reason, Tang De was a little curious about how this song was.

Thinking about these things, Tang De bought all the things, walked out of the supermarket and drove back to his home.

"I'm back." His mother, Carmela, greeted him at the door and said with a smile: "I want to add onions to your favorite cheese baked shrimp rice today?" ”

"Don't, Carmela, you know I don't like it." Don shrugged and handed the bag to his two younger brothers, then rubbed their heads with his hands, tickling them to the core.

"Go ahead, don't bother my brother." Carmella tied her apron around her body, paused abruptly when she turned to leave, turned her head and said, "When you go to the funeral, you should wear black, I have already washed your suit, so let's take it when the time comes." ”

Tang De was stunned for two seconds and laughed: "Thank you, Carmela." ”

"No thanks, my great director, you'll know when you reach my age......," Carmela said in a person's tone as she cleaned up the table, "Death is only one of God's arranged schedules, and there are many things in life that are more tedious, more difficult, and more noteworthy than death." ”

Tang De was stunned for a moment and raised his eyebrows: "Are you comforting me?" ”

Carmela stopped and looked at him: "Of course, is it so easy to hear?" ”

"That's right, Carmela, but I'd say I'm not really sad." Don De was telling the truth, he only thought of himself from Raymond's death, and thought of everything that came about after the accidental fall from the building, which always made him feel an unreal dream.

But as time went on, that feeling was now dissipating, and his life had a more real feel.

With money, women and status, he has already lived a better life, and the future will be better for the naked eye.

But his sense of security has been decreasing, until Raymond is killed, and he is already thinking about self-defense and security.

After all, in the United States, you never have to worry about not having a gun kill here.

However, Carmela didn't know about Donde's worries, and only thought that he was grieving for Raymond's death.

"Well, it looks like I said something superfluous, anyway, go wash your hands, and we'll eat in a while." Carmela continued into the kitchen to get busy.

And Tang De came to the bathroom, picked up the soap and rubbed it on his hand, but when his eyes crossed the mirror, something suddenly flashed in his mind, making him stop for a moment.

After being silent for a long time, he looked at his long sideburns in the mirror, and suddenly put his hands on both sides of the sink, and sighed in a low voice: "FXXXK...... I forgot to get a haircut......"
