Li Du didn't have a car, so he went to Hannah's house and borrowed her BMW Z4.
Hannah treated the Z4 like a treasure. She reminded him, "You have to step on the gas pedal gently. She's a hot-tempered girl. If you step on the gas pedal too hard, the speed will increase exponentially. Wipe your shoes before you get in the car. Don't leave any dust on her."
Hans, who was looking for customers on his iPad, raised his head and said, "Don't be afraid, sis. Li drives very carefully because he doesn't have a license."
"My God!"
Li Du smiled bitterly. "I'm in a hurry. Can you two stop joking around? I changed my license when I first came to America, okay? "
Hannah said, "Then you better be careful. After all, you didn't get your license in America."
Li Du rolled his eyes. If he knew it would be so troublesome, he would have rented a car.
Finally, after ten minutes of Hannah's repeated reminders, he got the keys and drove away.
Ah Meow's face was full of confusion. It was wrapped in a coat, with only its head exposed.
Hannah said that Ah Meow would shed its fur, so she came up with this plan.
Sophie was already waiting at the door. Li Du was a little embarrassed, even though he wasn't late.
It was almost June, and the weather in Flagstaff was getting hot. The female doctor was dressed very coolly.
Under the shade of a tree, she wore a candy-colored A-line skirt. The skirt reached her knees, revealing her slim and straight calves. Her skin was as white as the first snow.
To match the skirt, she wore a sleeveless pink tank top with a Hello Kitty pattern. It was very sweet and cute.
Coupled with the pink canvas shoes and a shoulder bag, she looked playful yet elegant.
Li Du got out of the car and said, "Sorry, I'm late."
Sophie giggled. "No, I just didn't want to stay in the house, so I came out early. Look, the weather is nice, and the sun is just right. What a beautiful season. Also, the car is beautiful. "
The party started during the day and lasted from morning to afternoon. The location was the backyard of the community hospital in Bones Community.
Li Du drove steadily. When they arrived at the community hospital, there were still ten minutes before the party started. The time was just right.
The surroundings of the community hospital had been carefully cleaned. The floor-to-ceiling window that Sophie had smashed with a chair had been replaced with new glass. There were no signs of violence.
There were already many people in the backyard. Most of them were black, Native Americans, or Mexicans. Judging by their attire, they were residents of the slums.
After the two of them got out of the car, many people walked over. A bald black man smiled and said, "Welcome, welcome. Welcome, Doctor Sophie."
Sophie smiled sweetly and said, "Good morning, Brother Robert."
"This is?" The black youth beside him asked.
The bald man, Robert, patted Li Du on the shoulder and said, "This must be our hero. You saved Sophie and Dr. Hamilton that night, right?"
Li Du said, "I can't say that I saved her. I was just lucky to have encountered this. If it were any other man, they would have done a better job than me."
"A humble brother!" Robert patted him harder on the shoulder, his eyes filled with admiration.
As they were chatting, a modified sports car drove over.
After entering the hospital's backyard, the car made a cool drift. Then, the gull-wing door opened, and a tall, handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes stepped out.
This handsome man looked to be in his late twenties. He was tall and muscular, with earrings in his ears. Under the sunlight, the earrings sparkled.
"It's Dr. Rachel Thompson. This guy is still so showy," a Native American man said with a smile.
Another man who looked almost the same as him gave him a look and said in a low voice, "Watch your mouth, don't talk nonsense."
After the handsome doctor got out of the car, he waved at them like a celebrity and said, "Good morning, guys. Let's get high!"
Sophie reluctantly waved and turned around. "Don't mind him, Li. Let me introduce both of you."
She first introduced Li Du, then the others. The black youth was called Lewton, and he had a pair of Native American twin brothers called Mandik and Sula. They were both prominent figures in the community.
Hans had told him that the prominent figures in the Bones Community were all gangsters.
As they chatted, he could feel this. When they talked about what happened that night, Robert said angrily, "Those b * stards from Las Vegas were lucky. If they weren't sent to the police station, I would've broken their bones!"
"No need to break their bones, just chop them up and feed them to the dogs," Mandik, who had a tattoo on his face, said coldly.
Sula said, "It's okay. Being in prison doesn't mean you can escape punishment."
Li Du nodded. "Yes, the law will punish them."
"Uh, I'm not talking about the law. I mean, we have many brothers in prison. If we send a message, they will punish those sons of b * tches."
Li Du smiled bitterly. They were not on the same path.
Sophie smiled. "There's no need, Brother Sula. I didn't get hurt that day. Li did a great job. He snatched the gun and cut it up. He's already taken care of those b * stards."
Speaking of this, Robert showed a look of admiration. "Yes, buddy. Were you in the special forces or secret service in China? I saw the surveillance footage. You did a great job! "
"Yes, I heard you're doing storage auctions now? That's a waste of your talent. You're really good. Your movements are as fast as lightning. "
"Not only is he fast, buddy. What's more amazing is this guy's determination."
"That's right! He dared to snatch a gun when it was pointed at him. Oh my God, he has a big heart and nerves forged from steel! "
"But I think he's still good. Before he snatched the gun, he flicked the bullet out!"
For a moment, everyone started discussing the scene of Li Du snatching the gun from the hands of the young men. Just like that, he became the center of the conversation.
Seeing this, the handsome Doctor Thompson showed an unhappy expression. He walked over and reached out to pat Sophie. He said, "Sophie, are you okay?"
The female doctor avoided his arm without batting an eyelid. She smiled and said, "God bless me, I'm not bad."
Thompson coughed unhappily and said, "What's everyone talking about? Has the party started? Why don't we stop chatting and play a game? "
Robert said lazily, "Sure, what game?"
"Mud Monkey Contest," Thompson said excitedly. "I saw that on the schedule, wasn't it?"
"That's right, but is the audience here? If there's not enough audience, then the game won't have the desired effect. We need to rely on this game to gather donations, "another doctor said.
Robert said, "That's easy. Lewton, call everyone and get them to hurry over. This is a community event. Get every family to send someone over."
"Yes, big brother." The young black man nodded and went to make a phone call.
Soon, the backyard was filled with people.
