Marcus immediately told Kai with facts what seniority meant. He told Kai a lot of gossip about Matthew without even checking it.
It turns out that the reason why Matthew was beaten by someone yesterday was very simple because he had slept with someone else's wife. What's worse is that the blond middle-aged man is Matthew's previous partner. The guy with the green hair is called Martin. Woody Martin. He used to be a member of their operations department, but he was transferred and left the operations department about three years ago. The reason was that he couldn't stand Matthew.
But before that, he and Matthew had a good time. At that time, the two of them were known as the best partners in the entire Chicago Police Department. Together they cracked many cases, the most famous of which was the 'cult corpse abuse case'. In that case, they not only killed the murderer directly, but also rescued several children who were imprisoned by the murderer.
This battle made these two famous. Martin is the other extreme from Matthew. He is cheerful and smooth, and is very popular among his colleagues in the police station. Both his boss and others think highly of him.
But it was also from that time that a rift appeared between the two. Matthew always felt that there were still doubts about the case back then, but Martin enjoyed his promotion and salary increase with peace of mind and began to neglect his own work. After that, the two had a big fight and officially broke up. Martin applied for transfer to the intelligence team, while Matthew continued to sink.
Originally, it was just like that, and the two of them were just like that. Maybe they would nod when they met again. But somehow, Matthew actually got involved with Martin's wife, which made Martin completely lose control. He is very popular, and his colleagues in the intelligence team felt that what Matthew had done was too much, and they all supported Martin...
Then he was suppressed by Kai.
When Kai heard these nonsense, he just felt a toothache. What the hell is this? Of course, it's really hard for Kai, an outsider, to get involved in this kind of thing. But as Marcus said before, Matthew has been investigating the case from previous years, which makes Kai very interested.
Does 'more terrifying darkness' refer to this?
"Do you know what he's looking for?" Kai asked Marcus.
Who knows, when Marcus heard this question, he looked around in an exaggerated manner and found that no one noticed him. He quickly lowered his body and whispered: "It is said that it is related to some powerful people. At least I know that Matthew once found Chicago." It was trouble for the bishop of the diocese, for which the superiors scolded Matthew and ordered him never to harass the bishop again."
Although the United States is considered a "Protestant" country, in fact, Catholicism is very powerful in the United States. According to statistics, there are more than 51 million Catholics in the United States, accounting for about one-fifth of the total adult population in the United States, and there are more than 17,000 Catholic dioceses.
One can imagine how much influence the bishop of a large diocese has. The weight of this bishop alone is enough to make ordinary policemen despair.
"As for what he is checking specifically, I don't know. He is always mysterious. No one knows what he is going to do." Marcus was actually curious about what Matthew was checking for a while, but This guy is more cautious than expected. No one knows what he is busy with every day.
"Forget it, let's not talk about him. By the way, my sister came back from Miami today and there is a party. Do you want to come?" Marcus obviously didn't want to talk more about Matthew because the case he investigated was so big. Yes, I have been warned openly and secretly several times by the superiors not to cause trouble in this area, otherwise the trouble will be huge.
"Of course, I'll be there on time."
…
Turning his head, Kai picked up the phone.
"Hey oldn! How are you doing?"
"Oh, Kai, I thought you had forgotten me as an old man. What? Do you want to drink?" William's magnetic voice came from the other side of the phone that could make even the announcer ashamed. To be honest, Kai always felt that William He is in the wrong profession. He should not be a policeman. If he becomes an announcer or a voice actor, he will definitely become a legend in the industry. His voice is so peaceful and kind that it can touch the deepest part of your heart.
His voice is absolutely popular when paired with a documentary or something.
Kai liked this old black man chatting and drinking very much. His voice and his experience were very easy to trust. During this period of time, if Kai had time, he would have a drink and chat with this old guy with an old heart.
Oh, by the way, William ultimately chose to postpone his retirement. The Chicago Police Department naturally welcomes this. If nothing else, his experience is a rare asset to the entire Chicago Police Department.
"You can drink at any time. You should know the location of my house. You are welcome at any time." Kai smiled and said: "Okay, let's get back to the subject. I need to do me a favor. Check something for me."
Kai always cared about Matthew's words "more terrifying darkness", he seemed to be foreshadowing something. Out of a policeman's curiosity, Kai felt the need to investigate and see what secrets were hidden in the 'cult corpse abuse case'.
"Um... is it troublesome?" William did not reject Kai. Just as Kai particularly liked drinking and chatting with him, William also had a good impression of Kai. Because he could always feel a calmness in Kai that he could not see in others. William was a believer in absolute rationality and believed that only such people were suitable for police work.
"It's a bit troublesome, so I need you to investigate secretly." Since the matter involves an archdiocesan bishop, this matter is definitely not a small matter. Don’t underestimate the power of Catholicism in American society. There have always been many cases of Catholic priests sexually abusing minors. However, in the American media, it is rare to see these cases being caught and not let go. Many times, those priests who committed crimes were not punished by the law. They were exonerated for many reasons and transferred to another parish, and the matter was over.
Then Kai slowly told William the whole story.
"I see...I know." William finally said.
Kai didn't say much, because he knew that William would definitely handle this matter seriously. Firstly, it’s because the fire in William’s heart has never been extinguished. He has always been the Chicago police officer pursuing justice. Another reason is that William, like Kay, is an atheist!
This is rare, in America old-school blacks are basically all Catholics. In fact, Hispanics and blacks have always accounted for a large proportion of Catholics in the United States, while whites only account for one-third of the total Catholic population.
…
In the evening, Kai took Kelly to the South Side in his Cobra 427. As we all know, the South Side of Chicago is where the black community is concentrated and the security is very poor. But don’t imagine that the entire South City is like a place where bullets rain every day. In fact, there are many communities in South City that are very safe, such as Hyde Park, Jackson Park Heights, Kenwood and Beverly. They are all quite safe. Safe community.
Marcus’s home is in the Hyde Park community, which is close to Lake Michigan and has a very good environment and pleasant scenery. The University of Chicago and the Museum of Science and Technology are both located on the edge of Hyde Park, and part of the beautiful Jackson Park is also located within this boundary. . The shores of Lake Michigan not only bring beautiful scenery to residents and visitors, but they can also run or bike along the 18-mile-long lake.
It can be said that Marcus's home is quite nice.
When Kay arrived with Kelly, who was all dressed up, the small garden behind Marcus' house was already full of people. But when Kai showed up with Kelly, everyone looked at the couple with their mouths wide open...
They were all dressed casually, except Kay and Kelly who were dressed as if they were going to a reception.
Fortunately for Kai, if he is not wearing a uniform, he is very clean and tidy most of the time. Suits have always been his first choice in daily life. Although it's a bit heavy, it's not out of place, but Kelly's evening gown is a bit... in short, very abrupt.
Kelly was embarrassed. She wanted to make a good impression in front of Kai's colleagues, so she had to be so strict. However, the young man reacted quickly. When she saw a group of people looking at her strangely, she immediately grabbed the hem of her skirt.
A sting.
The evening dress immediately turns into a short skirt, which is much better. A princess instantly becomes a hottie.
Marcus's wife Theresa (this is a bit embarrassing, Marcus's wife and his boss have the same name, forget it, let's use different Chinese to distinguish them), also stood up very gracefully, pulling Let Kelly talk to her about some topics between women.
"Hey~~buddy! (Hey, brother)" Seeing Kelly twisting his waist and leaving, Marcus immediately came over with an expression that every man would understand. He said enviously: "Is she an adult? Hey, brother, I have to say, you really impress me."
Kai smiled slightly awkwardly, not quite sure how to say this. After all, having a girlfriend who is much younger than myself is really not easy to explain.
Mike also came over at this time.
"Wow! She's such a hot girl, how did you meet her?"
Mike is known as the number one lover in the police station. This guy is not honest when it comes to seeing a psychiatrist. He slept with his psychiatrist in less than two hours.
"Um...well...everything just happened like that. I actually couldn't react." Teacher Kai said.
Marcus clearly didn't believe it. "Why do you rich boys like to play police games so much? Listen, if my father could leave me a lot of money, I wouldn't be a policeman! Wouldn't it be fun to live in a dream and change a girl every day?"
This guy thought Kai was the kind of rich kid who gets paid to pick up girls. But what he said clearly offended Mike.
"You know what? I've heard enough of your bullshit! My family is rich, so I should apologize? And, Nico! Don't compare you to us! I never use money to make out with girls! And, you Are you sure you know who your dad is?"
"Oh~~~Oh, calm down, I don't think we need to argue about this kind of thing." Kai saw the two of them fighting each other and immediately stood between them. He didn't expect that the relationship between these two guys, who had been together for six years, would be so fragile.
Unexpectedly, Kai's stop made the two of them embarrassed. In fact this is their daily routine. Marcus is the kind of good man who makes money to support his family. He values his family more, so he is often not very motivated. After all, if he dies, their family will immediately go bankrupt, and houses in Hyde Park are not cheap. The mortgage alone is enough for Marcus. Not to mention Marcus has four kids... Black people generally like to have a lot of kids.
"We're just kidding, we've always been like this, slutty, slutty."
Kai was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. He had heard this kind of thing before. Some people like to fight each other as soon as they meet, but in fact they have a good relationship. It's just that he has never seen them before. He didn't expect to see a pair now.
Soon the atmosphere became good again and others joined in the chat. There is no theme, just a talk about the gods.
Until Kai accidentally said that he didn't buy his car, but Kelly gave it to him, everyone else looked at Kai with a 'I want to beat him to death' expression.
"Really?" Marcus said with disbelief as he scratched his head with both hands. For a guy like him who is only 29 years old but looks like he is 40 years old, it is difficult to understand that such a hot girl would pay money for Kai. This is not in line with his values.
Kai shrugged, nothing to be embarrassed about. Of course, this is also based on the fact that Kai himself is not short of money. Who would think too much about his girlfriend casually handing him an apple? In Kai's opinion, the car really didn't mean anything to his net worth. On the contrary, if Kai was a poor man, he would not accept such an expensive gift. He is a male chauvinist and finds it difficult to tolerate being a pretty boy.
Others also followed suit. They didn't mean any harm, they just felt that Kai was making a lot of money. A girl who can afford a Cobra 427 is definitely not from an ordinary family, and she is so beautiful...hell be a winner in life.
"What are you talking about? Can I come with you?" At this moment, a black girl came over, obviously very curious about the excitement just now.
"Kay, this is Sydney, my sister." Marcus immediately introduced proudly.
Seeing Sydney, Kai believed what Mike just said, because there was absolutely no way the two of them were the same father. If nothing else, Sidney's height surpasses Marcus's.
"Why do I feel insulted?" Marcus saw Kai's eyes and easily understood what he meant.
Sydney immediately smiled and hit her brother.
"Sydney, dea is working now."
"Dea? I used to hate people who met DEA the most, because every time I met a DEA agent, it meant big trouble." Kai smiled and shook hands with Sydney, and then said immediately: "But seeing you, let I think it’s not a bad thing to meet DEA.”
Sydney giggled at Kai's compliment. Of course, most of this is indeed a compliment. Sydney is definitely a beauty according to the standards of black people. But Kai can't appreciate it. It's not because of her skin color. There are many beautiful black people, but because her facial features are too tough, especially her facial features. Judging from Eastern aesthetics, his eyebrows are more masculine than Marcus's.
Unexpectedly, Kai's polite compliment immediately made Marcus nervous. In his opinion, Kai and Mike were both people who needed to be on the vigilance blacklist. Mike wouldn't say anything about it. Marcus was a good man. From a perspective, Mike is undoubtedly a jerk, and the kind of scumbag who doesn't like to take responsibility.
Kai was even more terrible, he could actually get a chick to fall in love with him, which was much higher than Mike's rank. Mike cheated on his body at most, while Kai cheated on money and sex, and ended up losing both his life and money.
Feng Ping was harmed.
But Kai can understand Marcus' nervousness very well. He might be more exaggerated than Marcus if he wants to have a sister. But what's interesting is that Kai actually saw a subtle change in Mike's face... Could it be that this guy...
Everyone was chatting and joking, but no one expected that the next moment, Kai's crow's mouth would be effective.
Marcus's wife, Theresa, took the phone and handed it to Mike. As soon as Mike put the receiver to his ear, he was immediately frightened by a roar and immediately put the phone away.
"Okay, boss, maybe you're saying 'Get over here right now?'"
Immediately there was another roar. Then he hung up.
"Well, maybe not..." Mike shrugged and put down the phone.
"Hey guys, get your butts up, we're going to work, looks like another bad day."
Oh~~~~~!
The party is lively, and of course I don't feel comfortable being interrupted.
But they didn't know that this incident could be described as more than just trouble.
