Chapter 979 In Hawaii (6)
Danny grabbed Bruce Hoffman’s outstretched right hand, pulled him up from his seat, pinched the back of his neck and pushed him into the back kitchen, leaving the restaurant The other guests who were still dining inside were startled.
"The police are on the case." Jack took out his wallet and put it back quickly without saying that he was the FBI. This temporarily appeased a few enthusiastic people who had already taken out their mobile phones and planned to call the police.
In the back kitchen, Danny flashed his police badge and politely asked the chefs and waiters out temporarily, and then he was very "polite" to the shocked Bruce Hoffman. Made a self-introduction.
“I’m Detective Danny Williams, and I’m the father of a little girl who was taken hostage in a Mercedes-Benz this morning.
Now that the recording you want is in my hands, and I'm going to expose it, I really want to know, what are you going to do to me? "
Hearing these seemingly unrelated words, dense beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Bruce Hoffman's shiny forehead, "Listen, listen, I don't understand what you are doing at all. What are you talking about, Detective Williams, I”
Seeing that he wanted to continue to quibble, Danny grabbed him by the collar, took out his police badge and pressed it hard on his bare forehead. .
Bruce Hoffman was pushed back by the short but strong Danny, and he didn't stop until he hit a row of shelves stacked with flour.
One. The various cutlery and plates in the kitchen that he carried along the way made a jingling sound. Jack, who was standing at the door to help "look out for the wind", could only look back at the diners who were casting curious glances through the glass door. With an awkward yet polite smile
Danny slapped his police badge hard and said seriously, "Listen, you can copy my police badge off your forehead, and you are welcome to complain.
I'm just here to inform you. One thing about you, the recording is in my hands now, and I will use it to expose your dirty deeds. No matter what method you want to use to stop me, you can,
But if you continue to send people Showing up around my daughter with a gun, I swear to God, I will kill you with my own hands, do you understand?”

When Jack finished packing some of the most expensive items. After eating the dishes and paying a large tip to appease the restaurant manager, he walked into the parking lot and saw a black Buick car driving out without putting on the handbrake and squealing the brakes all the way.
"Is this your 'Five-O' style of handling cases? It's different with the governor's backing."
Hearing that Jack dared to tease himself like this, Danny stood up and glared at this cheap "nephew" , it took a long time before his shoulders slumped as if he was discouraged.
“We usually pay more attention to image, forget it, let’s go, I will take you to eat the most delicious shrimp rice in Hawaii.”
——
The small town of Kahuku on the north shore of Oahu was once a sugar cane plantation. It declined for a time after the last local sugar refinery closed in the 1970s.
It wasn't until the 1980s that someone transformed the sugarcane fields here into ponds and shrimp fields, and used fresh water to start cultivating sweet shrimps, bringing this ancient town back to life.
There are various shrimp rice food trucks scattered along the way. The food trucks are covered with all kinds of graffiti and tourist signatures. The more signatures, it means that the shrimp food produced by this food truck is the best.
It’s a pity that Jack doesn’t appreciate the local stuffed rice. It can be done with a rice cooker, but even the shrimp rice restaurant Danny specially recommended, the rice with fresh shrimp and sauce still doesn’t taste very good. Sample.
This is also the reason why the friends of the Most Wanted Criminal Team blackmailed Jack for a seafood dinner before leaving.
Commercial fishing is prohibited in the waters surrounding Hawaii, and there is basically no agriculture on Oahu, the most populous island. There are also very few locally grown fruit varieties. Basically all ingredients need to be imported from outside the island. Therefore, the eating habits here are essentially not much different from those in the United States, and the processing of ingredients is as rough and crude as ever.
Not only that, Jack also became a little curious about the taste buds of Hawaiians, because this state can consume 7 million cans of Spam in a year with a population of less than 1.5 million, which made him simply wonder. Unbelievable.
However, Hawaii can be regarded as the place where Asian and European and American food cultures collide most intensely among the 50 states in the United States.
The medium-rare steaks can highlight the taste, the different Chinese food, the relatively authentic Thai food, and the Japanese food, which does not matter whether it is authentic or not as long as it is raw, can still satisfy the taste buds of most tourists.
Fortunately, shrimp is usually not too unpalatable no matter how you prepare it. Even if it is topped with all kinds of weird sauces, as long as it is fresh enough, its sweet and chewy meat will be very delicious. Delicious.
The Thai dishes that Jack packed from the previous restaurant were also quite good. The sweet and spicy ones were quite appetizing, but the key was that they were not greasy.
A few people had dinner in the "Five-O" office, and Jack said goodbye to everyone. Kono and Cheng Hao took the initiative to stay and help Danny handle the materials.
Of course, such a small case cannot be led by "Five-O", and the main work is in the district attorney's office and the court.
But according to Danny's idea, even if the fat bald man named Bruce Hoffman cannot be sent to prison, he must be driven out of Hawaii so that he can no longer pollute the living environment of his precious daughter. Therefore, it is very important to collect enough evidence in the early stage.
Jack rarely slept in. His life has become much easier recently, and Justin's reminders are not as frequent as before. As the development of "Shangri-La" business gradually enters the fast lane, Hollywood Some are frustrated screenwriters who provide the material.
Therefore, when someone got up in the morning, he was in a good mood. Yesterday's bad things could only be regarded as a small episode. He acted as a driver and spectator throughout the whole process, which fully proved that he, Agent Jack Tavole, did not make trouble everywhere. Conan physique of the case.
However, someone's good mood did not last long. Just as he was having breakfast in the cafeteria with Rachel and Grace, who were also staying at the Hilton Hotel, he suddenly received a call from Danny.
"Jack, is the witness you want to protect named Julie Master?"
"Yes, what happened?" Jack was shocked. He just yesterday He said that he had a protection mission, but did not mention the name of the witness or any information at all.
The "Five-O" where Danny works usually only handles major cases. Now that he suddenly found himself and obviously obtained relevant information, there was only one possibility, something happened to the witness!
Listening to the whirring sound on the other side of the phone, Danny was obviously already on his way to drive. "The specific situation is not clear yet, but HPD just reported that they lost contact with two police officers who were ordered to go to the safe house to pick up witnesses and go to court.
The situation is not good. We are on the way to the safe house now. Suddenly we thought of the protection mission you mentioned yesterday, so we called you to ask about it. "Exit."
Jack held the phone, smiled uglier than crying at the mother and daughter who looked at him curiously, and continued, "Your guess is correct, can you drop by? "Take me along?"
"I have five minutes to get to the hotel door. You'd better bring your gun and spare magazine." Danny's extremely fast speaking speed already showed the urgency of the situation.
