Chapter 52 Farewell
"Oh, little Jack, and cute little Floy, are you leaving today?"
Mrs. Caroline stood at the door of the flower shop and said with a look of reluctance.
"Yes, Mrs. Caroline."
Chen Lun nodded.
He was holding a suitcase in his hand, and Floy was standing quietly beside him in a black dress.
She wore a black bonnet on her head today, and her long pale blond hair fell like a waterfall from behind the bonnet.
"What a pity... Mr. Kent left without saying goodbye, the three Moriarty brothers and sisters moved away, and now you two are going to the inner city...
The whole building is going to be empty. ”
Mrs. Caroline was quite sad.
At this moment, a beautiful figure ran down the corridor.
"Mr. Jack! Miss Floy! Please wait for me!"
Connie ran over panting, carrying large and small bags.
Bang!
She lowered her bow and raised her head.
"Mr. Jack, I...I've thought about it, I want to go with you!"
She pursed her lips, a little embarrassed.
A few freckles decorate the red cheeks, making the whole face look like a strawberry.
Chen Lun looked at her and couldn't help but laugh.
On the one hand, it was because Connie chose to accept the olive branch he extended, and on the other hand, it was because she looked quite cute at the moment.
"It seems you've thought about it, Connie."
"Yes, Mr. Jack."
Connie nodded sharply and smiled brightly.
Chen Lun stretched out his hand.
"Welcome to my team."
"Thank you for your attention, I will work hard!"
Connie held out her little hand, and the two shook it gently in a friendly manner.
Mrs. Caroline was a little surprised and speechless looking at the three people in front of her.
After a long time, she shook her head slightly.
"It seems I was wrong. Even Connie is leaving... Now I am the only old woman left."
Then she looked at the border shepherd at her feet, dumbfounded.
"You're not leaving too, are you? Babu?"
Chen Lun named the dog Babu. After hearing what Mrs. Caroline said, the dog was really eager to give it a try.
But before it could even take a step forward, it was forced back by Chen Lun's look and squatted down at Mrs. Caroline's feet.
The tail swung, and he even rubbed his head into her hand, allowing her to be stroked.
"Oh, good boy!"
Mrs. Caroline was very happy, but apparently there was still one who didn't want to leave.
Connie hid and covered her mouth and snickered, and Floy couldn't help laughing.
"Mrs. Caroline, it's time for us to leave. We will come back to No. 7 Denton Street when we have time."
"Okay, little Jack...oh, wait a minute!"
Mrs. Caroline seemed to have thought of something and rushed upstairs in a hurry.
After a while, she ran down with a notebook.
"This is a cooking manual I wrote myself. Every time I cooked for Henry and Oliver, I would write down some experiences...
They always praised me for my good work. As time went by, this notebook became full.
Here it is, little Floy, I hope it helps. ”
Mrs. Caroline said, passing it into Floy's hand.
"Thank you, Mrs. Caroline."
Floy took the note, tilted his head slightly, and "looked" at Chen Lun.
"I will learn it well."
……
Inner city.
45 First Avenue, Daniel Apartments.
A middle-aged man was pacing back and forth in the study.
Suddenly, he stopped.
Take a cigar from the cigar box on your desk, cut it open, light it, and take a deep breath.
As the smoke filled the room, his deep, suppressed voice sounded in the room:
"Feldman never came back... The Iron Fist Gang didn't dare to take action. Was it other gangs in the outer city who did it?"
His face was as deep as water and his eyes were far-reaching.
"To be able to kill two elite bodyguards at the same time is not an ordinary force."
Daniel opened the French window depressedly, and it started to rain lightly outside. The rain poured down on the garden lawn, splashing water.
Phew——
Breathing out breath smoke again.
"Damn...my butler has disappeared, how can things continue?"
He seemed to be holding a breath in his chest and didn't know how to release it.
Just then.
An oil painting hanging on the wall of the study moved strangely.
There is a big mouth painted on it, with uneven teeth, some square and some round, very abstract.
There are five tongues sticking out of the mouth, some of different lengths, some thick and some thin.
The background is a swirl of colorful colors that, at first glance, makes people dizzy.
"Daniel."
The large mouth in the painting opens and closes, spitting out human words.
When he heard a voice calling his name, Representative Daniel's expression changed, he threw away his cigar and closed the floor-to-ceiling window.
Snap!
"Your Excellency Sir Grease."
He came to the painting and said respectfully.
"How is your research going?"
"Research..."
Daniel gritted his teeth, looked up at the oil painting, and suddenly felt a splitting headache.
He quickly looked away, lowered his head and said:
"Originally, things were progressing, but my butler Federman disappeared after going to the outer city. I don't know the situation on the craftsman's side yet."
The big mouth in the oil painting is slightly closed, with the corners of the mouth raised.
A creepy chuckle followed.
A long while.
"I can choose someone else, Daniel."
Oil Painting Big Mouth said.
When Daniel heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
"I helped you deal with your enemy, that...Congressman Lawson?
He is currently grieving the loss of a son and may act a little crazy.
If I turn around and support him, he will be happy to help me, no matter the cost. ”
Daniel trembled with fear when he heard this, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
He took a deep breath and wiped the sweat from his forehead without leaving a trace.
"No, Sir Grease, Lawson can't help you... He has no roots in the outer city and can't organize the manpower to forge that weapon for you."
"Oh?"
The oil painting mouth paused.
"But you seem to have lost the ability to serve me now.
Help is mutual, Daniel, and you can't keep holding off on giving me what I want. ”
"Give me a little more time! Sir Oil Paint..."
Representative Daniel clenched his fists.
He took a deep breath and straightened his body.
"I will send new personnel as soon as possible to complete your commission."
"Okay, then I'll give you another half month...
But the amount that needs to be handed over next time, I need to double, as compensation for your breach of trust. ”
Councilor Daniel had a sullen face and held back one word from his throat:
"Okay!"
The colors on the oil painting twist, the big mouth slowly closes, and the scattered tongue and jagged teeth retract.
In the end, the oil painting remains still and no longer changes.
Senator Daniel had a bulging vein on his forehead and left the study without saying a word.
A studio far away in the inner city.
A young man suddenly raised his head and stared at an oil painting on the wall.
A strange hand on the oil painting began to move.
A strange hand with seven fingers stretched out one and wrote in the painting with its sharp nails.
The nails are like knives, cutting across the skin in the painting, carving a line of bloody words——
"In half a month, kill Councilor Daniel." Thank you to the beautiful lady - Yao Yu, for your 1 monthly ticket!
Love you()
