Of course, Mike never thought he would succeed.
The number of people who can send messages to all operators and ask them to keep it secret can be counted on one hand in Rhodes Island.
Texas said in fear: "Then we learned of your death. We all regretted it. Why didn't anyone agree to check on you first? Fortunately, you didn't hide in the remote countryside, otherwise we would never find you again."
Mike let go of the Lupert and walked into the repair shop alone. When he came to the sports car with only the chassis left, he said without looking back, "Why would I go to a remote place? I just wanted to live in a different environment. I'm not so disheartened that I'd hang myself. There are other reasons for faking my death and deceiving everyone."
"I also feel lucky that you chose Longmen instead of another city."
"I know a lot of people in Longmen. Compared to Columbia and Victoria, Yan Country is more suitable for me. I used to be a doctor in Rhodes Island. I am not a gigolo. I can't survive without this identity."
The man turned around and faced Texas, who was standing at the door of the repair shop, and warned him, "Don't reveal my identity. Now that you know I'm the doctor, you should know who it is."
Texas bit his lower lip, his eyes red from crying, and whispered, "You still don't want to forgive us?"
"No, this has nothing to do with you. Giving up my doctorate and leaving Rhodes Island was part of my plan. You discovering my identity was a last resort."
At this point, Mike switched from Longmen dialect to Syracuse dialect, his voice hoarse and low: "Celinina, you are also beautiful when you cry."
The Luper opened his mouth slightly, his eyes were wide open, and his mind was blank.
There was no way, she couldn't stand the doctor's tone, and couldn't help but recall the sweet words she had said. She squeezed her legs together in embarrassment, trying to find a place to hide.
Damn man.
"Go back. Your colleagues from Penguin Logistics are looking for you. Don't let them worry. Also, remember to take a shower and change your clothes. They stink."
Texas walked away angrily, his steps brisk, and he couldn't suppress his joy.
The biggest surprise in this land is a false alarm.
……
Repair shop.
Mike stood alone next to the chassis of the sports car. He remembered this car. He and Texas once escaped from the pursuit of the Syracuse family together. It was just the two of them.
The female warrior with two swords on her back rode on horseback, hugging the weak scholar tightly with her arms. Behind her were the bandits holding various weapons and shouting that they wanted to capture both of them.
They were faced with a rushing river, with no way forward and pursuers behind them. The heroine said, "Now that things have come to this, please live and die with me," and then she jumped down, and both she and her horse fell into the river.
This is a cliché and romantic thing in martial arts novels, but it loses its flavor in reality.
That day Texas drove to the Po River in Syracuse, the longest and most famous river in Syracuse, and asked if she was afraid.
Things have come to this point, there's no point in being afraid.
The Lupo people stepped on the accelerator and drove the car directly into the river. They hugged each other and drifted to the extreme, and were rescued by Exia and Croissant who were prepared in advance.
As for being scolded by Kal'tsit afterwards, that was not important at all.
"It was an accident that Texas recognized me. I just hope there will be fewer accidents like this..."
In fact, it’s not just De Gou, there’s also Lin Yuxia.
He is a soft-hearted person and can't stand seeing girls cry, especially when a girl says "I like you, I'm sorry I can't be with you, this is my biggest regret."
Mike softened his heart.
"So the right thing to do is for me to reject everyone and find a temple to become a monk? No, there's a high chance that I'll run into a monk who's practicing with hair."
Better be more careful.
……
That night.
Texas returned to the Penguin Logistics base and everyone was surprised to see her.
Sakota quickly got up from the sofa and ran over, asking with concern: "Texas, where have you been? We are all worried about you. Are you okay?"
Lupo was as cold as ever, but facing a few pairs of concerned eyes, his tense nerves relaxed: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern."
She then said to the emperor: "Boss, all the problems have been solved. The remaining part is insignificant. The Guard Bureau will find a solution on its own."
The old penguin pulled down his sunglasses with his flipper, stared at Texas with his dark eyes, and asked in confusion, "Solved?"
"Well, Lord Wei used a powerful sword in mid-air. There were also a few unfamiliar people at the scene, including the old Li from the Li detective agency and a master I didn't know. In short, it ended perfectly."
"So that's how it is. That old guy Wei Yanwu is quite capable. We helped him solve such a big problem. We can have a good talk when we settle accounts at the end of the year."
The emperor did not investigate further. After all, Wei Yanwu had already taken action, and it would be unreasonable if the matter could not be resolved.
The environment in Longmen is complicated. The owner of a candy store could be a gang leader. Is there anything impossible?
The Angel of Power came over and asked, "But Texas, you haven't come back all day, what have you been doing?"
"There was a little accident," Texas was reluctant to discuss the issue in depth, "I'm going to take a shower first. Do you have any dinner left for me?"
"Oh, no, but I have a piece of apple pie, do you want one?"
"want!"
"Eh?!"
39. Show off and that’s it
Two days flew by.
A taxi slowly stopped by the roadside and a man wearing a bowler hat came out. He raised his head and looked at the house number of the building opposite.
Longmen Almshouse.
When he first came to Longmen to settle down, this mobile city was not as stable as it is now. He had to find a place to stay before the evening curfew. He came here and stayed for one night as a last resort.
People in the world regard the whole world as their home, so you should not take it to heart and just leave it in a carefree manner.
However, in this orphanage, he met a man, a guy with no sense of responsibility. It was because of this man that he was tied to Longmen for so many years.
Do you regret it?
It seems that I don't regret it much.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with people who wander around having something to rely on in their hearts.
Don’t you regret it?
It seems like there is a little bit.
The mountains and rivers of Dayan are endless, the north and south of the Great Wall, the desert and lakes are so beautiful that you can never see enough of them.
When his children are old enough to live independently, he will pack his bags and set out on his journey again.
"Uncle Li, why are you standing here and not going in?"
The voice of the Zalak girl came from behind him, and the man turned around, just as she walked beside him.
Today, Lin Yuxia wore a masculine robe and a pair of long boots, looking very heroic. However, this girl is naturally beautiful and looks good in anything she wears. I don’t know why she is the daughter of that mouse.
Lao Li cupped his hands and made a "please" gesture: "Ms. Lin, I just arrived too. Let's go in together."
"it is good."
Lin Yuxia smiled and held Lao Li's arm. The two of them walked to the door of the orphanage and opened the door for him personally.
Lao Li opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say what was in his heart.
This girl is really good at dealing with people, which is a good thing and a bad thing.
……
Built more than 40 years ago, the Longmen Almshouse has been renovated several times. It retains the marks of that era and also adds new era features, such as the intercity network.
I believe many people in Longmen today would not be used to living in a place without intercity network.
Lin Yuxia and Lao Li entered the orphanage and were told by the staff to go to the designated location. They walked one after another through the Ursus-style corridor and arrived at the meeting place.
"Uncle Li, I'm not in a very good mood today. Is it because I did something wrong or was I negligent?"
Lao Li quickly shook his head: "No, that's not the case. Miss Lin makes me feel flattered. How can I be dissatisfied?"
Lin Yuxia smiled sweetly: "That's good, Uncle Li, we're here, please come in."
When Lao Li pushed open the door of the room, the first thing he saw was Xingxiong standing opposite the door. The second-in-command of the Guard Bureau was biting on an unlit cigarette, looking up with a pair of sharp eyes looking at him.
"Nice to meet you."
Lao Li clasped his fists.
Xingxiong also clasped her fists in return, as if the two people standing here were just gangsters, and she did not hold an important position in the Guards Bureau.
Lin Yuxia followed behind.
They were the last to arrive.
Texas and Exia from Penguin Logistics sat on the left, Mostima and Fiammetta from Lateran sat on the right, directly opposite was Xing Xiong, Snow Pheasant was on her right, and Lao Li was leaning against Lin Yuxia.
Miss Zarak calmed herself down. Everyone present was an acquaintance, so there was no need for too many pleasantries. She chose the opening remarks she had prepared in her heart.
"Good morning everyone."
……
Also on this day.
Mike opened the door of the repair shop as usual, moved a chair to lie down at the door, put on headphones, and swung his legs leisurely.
look.
There are no complicated official documents, no intrigues, and no need to calculate when the supplies in the warehouse can be used. The life of a car repair shop owner is so simple and boring.
"Ding bell, jingle bell."
Mike opened his eyes and saw a delivery man carrying a food box approaching. He looked up at the sign of the repair shop and asked, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Mike?"
"I am."
“Here’s the fish ball soup for you.”
"Oh, thank you."
Mike took it and looked at it. The name of the person who ordered the food was just one word, Lin.
oops.
Lin Yuxia was thoughtful and even sent me a bowl of fish balls. I feel so embarrassed.
Mike picked up the chopsticks and showed off happily.
He had just taken two bites when another van came and slowly stopped by the roadside. A Pero man got out and asked loudly, "Boss, do you want to check the situation?"
"coming."
Mike walked quickly, walked to the front of the car, took a look, kicked the broken headlight, raised his head and chuckled, "Wow, it hit the telephone pole, but no one was hit, right?"
The car owner said awkwardly: "How can that be possible? If I hit someone, there would definitely be blood. I can still drive here. In other words, can it be repaired?"
"Yes, but I'm a little busy. You can leave the car here and come over in the evening."
"Row."
The owner threw the keys directly to Mike.
Mike asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid that I will change your car?"
"You're Mike, right?"
"Yeah, I'm that famous?"
The car owner said as a matter of course: "Miss Lin recognizes you, so we who are transporting goods have nothing to say. We can distrust you, but we cannot distrust her."
Good guy.
Mike nodded: "Okay, come back in the evening."
The Pero man walked away openly.
Mike grabbed his hair and sighed, "Lin Yuxia is too enthusiastic, what should I do..."
Replacing the car lights was not a difficult task. Mike was busy by noon and had basically finished it. He was also tired, so he simply lay down in the back seat of the car and took a nap.
This place is peaceful and there aren't many troubles.
Unfortunately, two young men came, one tall and one short, both members of the Outsiders gang. When they saw the door of the repair shop was open and the person in charge was missing, they secretly became interested.
How could they know that the most valuable thing was the chassis of the sports car? But even if they knew, they couldn't take it away, so they turned their attention to the van parked next to the store door.
