Chapter 757: Someone With Potential for Committing Crime
“Hey, that’s my wife. Give me some face.” Jimmy was the typical kind of person who only allowed himself to tease his wife. Nobody else was allowed to do it.
He was the legendary wife-protecting demon.
Zhuang Long tactfully shut up.
He urged Jimmy to continue telling him about other cases. He was particularly interested in the ones Jimmy had encountered.
Jimmy thought about it for a while, then told him another story. This time, he told a story about a man who had fallen for another woman. The main characters were two boys, about the same age, both good-looking. One was named A, and the other B.
The two of them had been good brothers since high school. Later on, they formed a band of their own. At first, the band existed to realize their dream of loving and playing music. Later on, they became famous and signed with a good management company.
Gradually, the nature of the band changed. Some people couldn’t stand the current situation and left the group early. Some people were mesmerized by the scene in that circle and wanted to enter it.
After that, a big shot fell for that man called A and wanted to keep him as a mistress.
A was initially willing, but when he heard that this big shot was ruthless and liked to play around, he got scared. However, he had already agreed to it and did not dare refuse. In the end, he chose to betray B. B was very good-looking to begin with. Coupled with his innocent nature, he was well-liked by the big shot.
For one night, B was almost toyed to death by the big shot.
After that, B escaped the clutches of the big shot. The first thing he did was kill A. A was dead. B wasn’t, but he had become a lunatic.
Jimmy’s story wasn’t as dark as the first one, but because it involved the entertainment industry, it was like as if there was a huge barrier. The entertainment industry was like a siege. The difference was that people outside wanted to come in, but those inside wanted to climb higher.
Jimmy said, “At first, when I found out that I was in charge of investigating the death of a celebrity, I was as excited as any ordinary person. Celebrities, after all, live on television. They feel like people from completely different worlds. To be able to really interact with them, which newcomer wouldn’t be excited?”
“But when we pushed aside the layers of fog and discovered the truth, we found out that it was A versus B who betrayed us first. B was just taking revenge, and his mood was in a mess.” Seeing Zhuang Long look thoughtful, Jimmy asked, “What are you thinking?”
Zhuang Long said, “I was just thinking about whether I should change careers. Why don’t I just become a writer?” He seemed to be in high spirits. He sat up straight and leaned closer to Jimmy, suggesting, “Uncle Jimmy, let’s write a book together.”
Jimmy couldn’t help but laugh.
“No, I’m not interested in publishing a book.”
“Then what are you interested in?”
Eyes narrowed, Jimmy said, “I’m only interested in two things.”
“Oh?”
Jimmy held up two fingers and told Zhuang Long, “The first thing is to track down the real culprit and protect social peace. The second thing is to educate those dangerous people with potential for committing crime.”
Zhuang Long laughed out loud.
He rocked back and forth with laughter, as if he had heard something extremely interesting.
He took a sip of coffee and asked Jimmy with a smile, “Then what are you doing with me?”
Jimmy tilted his head and said jokingly, “What do you think?”
Zhuang Long said, “I can’t guess. In any case, I didn’t commit a crime so I’m sure I’m not a murderer. As for committing crime…” He rubbed his right wrist unconsciously with his left hand and rolled it a few times around the wrist bones before saying, “Compared to a criminal, I prefer to be a savior.”
Perhaps he was stunned by the arrogant word “savior”. With that, Zhuang Long couldn’t help but laugh.
Jimmy looked at him in silence, just smiling. He didn’t interrupt.
After Zhuang Long finished laughing, he suddenly stood up. When he spoke again, his voice seemed to have dropped a little in temperature. He said, “I’ll visit again next time, Uncle Jimmy. I should go back.” His face changed as easily as the sky on a summer afternoon. One second, it was clear, and the next, it was covered in dark clouds.
Jimmy watched as the young man strode away, sighing softly.
He knew that Zhuang Long had sensed that something was wrong.
After Zhuang Long left Uncle Jimmy’s house, his expression darkened.
Dangerous people with criminal potential…
Did he have criminal potential?
Zhuang Long felt that this was truly the funniest thing he had heard this year.
If he wanted to commit a crime, he would have killed that disgusting Fu Fu long ago when he was studying. Otherwise, why else would Fu Fu have the chance to move around?
“The police are just paranoid.”
Zhuang Long snorted. Because Uncle Jimmy’s joke had displeased him, he decided not to play with Uncle Jimmy for the next three days. When he got home, Zhuang Long turned on his computer and edited the story Jimmy had told him. He polished it and sent it out.
He was, of course, a man of his word. At the end of the article, he made it clear that he was merely the porter of the story, dictated by a retired policeman.
At the end of the first article, Zhuang Long respectfully addressed Jimmy as an old detective with a lovely soul.
And at the end of today’s article, he had turned on Jimmy, calling him a rotten old man with bad taste.
His willfulness made the readers very happy.
They liked Zhuang Long’s carefree style, as well as the unpretentious signature at the back of every article.
No matter how much you disliked the little b*tch that is time, the clock would not stop ticking just because you gave her the cold shoulder. Ji Yinbing and Yan Nuo were about to get married. Over the past few days, friends from overseas began to arrive in New York City one after another.
On June 12, Ji Yinbing’s family arrived in New York.
At this moment, the two villa buildings Yan Nuo had bought came in handy. They arranged for the Ji family to stay in the new house, and Fang Yusheng and his family, who had arrived the same night, were picked up by Zhuang Long to stay with them. In fact, Qiao Jiusheng had her own house in New York. It had been a long time since they last met, and she wanted to get together, so she decided to stay with Zhuang Long.
Yan Nuo was too busy entertaining the Ji family to pick them up.
As a local and Yan Nuo’s best man, Zhuang Long went to pick them up in Yan Nuo’s stead. Zhuang Long waited at the airport for a while before he heard the announcement reminding that Fang Yusheng’s flight had arrived.
Zhuang Long didn’t come alone. Their chauffeur came with him. The chauffeur was holding a sign written in Chinese. He stood in the crowd and tried to raise his sign higher. The moment he walked out of the passageway, Fang Zikai saw the people at the arrival gate.
Fang Zikai tugged at the corner of Fang Zicheng’s shirt and asked, “Brother! What do those signs say?”
Fang Zicheng glanced at the greeting cards. If he saw a word he recognized, he would tell the truth. If he saw one he didn’t recognize, he would just spout nonsense and brush Fang Zikai off.
