Chapter 58 Family Dinner
However, the young man remained where he was, looking hesitant.
Yorks raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why? Is there something you want to tell me?"
Little Gersta nodded and shook his head.
This expression was too obvious, and York said helplessly: "Tell me, if I can help."
Hearing this, Little Gusta hesitated and said, "Brother York, I have a friend who always feels that someone is following her every time she gets off work."
Yorks frowned. People's spiritual perception is always strange. As long as the state is not right, if they think too much while walking on the road at night, they will always feel that there is someone behind them.
But sometimes, this feeling is accurate, and we should always be on guard against others.
"So she accurately saw someone following her?" York asked.
Little Gusta shook her head: "No, I don't know if she is hallucinating, but she said that she can always feel someone following her every night. She is very scared and now she has asked for leave and dares not go to work."
"Okay." York shrugged and said, "Tell me your friend's address. I'll go over and take a look at it tomorrow when I'm at work."
Little Gusta's face lit up with joy, and he took out the note from his pocket and handed it over.
"This is my friend Monica's address and her phone number."
It seems that you have been prepared for a long time. Yorks' eyes showed an ambiguous look. He took the note handed over by little Gusta and glanced at it:
"Your girlfriend?"
"no!"
Little Gusta hesitated for a moment, there was nothing on his face, but his ears turned red.
What a naive young boy! Yorks felt amused and patted little Gusta’s shoulder.
"Go in, don't worry, I will go over there myself tomorrow to check it out. No matter who the pervert is, I will help your friend solve it."
"Thank you, Brother York!" little Gusta said loudly.
York waved his hand and walked towards his F150 Raptor carrying the packaging bag.
-
Sheffield Manor.
"Thank you, merciful Lord, for giving us abundant food and all your blessings. Amen."
During the prayer before meals.
The entire Sheffield family gathered at a large dining table. With ten people sitting there, the scene looked quite lively.
Compared with previous family dinners, Yorks had already bought gifts in advance in order to get rid of the entanglement of his sister Lillian.
A simple skirt, just for the occasion.
Of course, there are also his cousin Genaji and cousin Emily, who are just trying to even the score.
So without the harassment of the little kid, York is now a lot more relaxed.
The adults were talking about daily things that he didn't understand, didn't want to understand, or was too lazy to pay attention to.
"."
York was also happy and relaxed, but while he was waiting to eat the barbecue, a sentence rang out and attracted everyone's attention.
"Mr. York, today is the last day of your administrative leave?" said Russell, the father sitting next to him, turning everyone's attention to him.
Facing the gazes of the crowd, York stopped moving his fork, picked up the napkin to wipe the oil stains on the corners of his mouth, and replied calmly.
"Yes, Father."
Mother Valerie gave him a worried look: "What did he do again?"
Feeling everyone's gaze, York felt helpless.
Before Russell could answer, Michael, the old man sitting at the head of the table, smiled and said, "He killed a serial killer, and that serial killer seemed to be from the D Combat Detachment of the Army's First Special Forces."
As soon as these words came out, it was like a tornado sweeping across the entire dining table, and everyone took action. Even York's heart was moved. It was not until now that he knew where the bald driver came from. The unit the old man was talking about was actually the Delta Special Forces.
"No wonder he was so professional. He was just a little careless, so I shot him dead." York said calmly.
The army and the police force are different systems. Most police forces are not qualified to access the victim information in the army. They must apply for it, especially for special forces. Their information is confidential and the army will not open it to the police force unless necessary.
This is why even Superintendent Olha found it difficult to find the bald driver's personal information hidden in ordinary data.
He believed that what the old man said was true, because the old man should not be within the scope of this restriction. After all, on the old man’s birthday, senators and some military personnel came to attend.
You should know that the Senate is equivalent to the legislative body of this country. Like the House of Representatives, it is one of the two houses of Congress and is also known as the upper house.
Personnel appointments, foreign treaties, peace treaties, and declarations of war all require only a vote in the Senate. Therefore, if a president wants to govern smoothly, it is crucial for the president's party to win a majority in the Senate.
There are too many channels for the old man to check.
The adults had strange looks on their faces, but they also looked worried, including Full, who had already gone to college and was sensible enough.
Only the young Lillian and her younger cousins did not understand what was going on. They looked at York with shining eyes and thought their brother was very capable.
"Oh." Valerie sighed, put the knife and fork in her hand on the table, looked at York blankly and said in a muffled voice.
"I have no appetite!"
York glanced at his father Russell with a complaining look: "Mother, if there is any danger, I will not go there myself, you can rest assured about that."
Russell laughed out loud: "Yes, York has experience. If he dares to do this again next time, I will definitely find a way to change his position and let him transfer to a civilian position."
Russell's words livened up the atmosphere at the table a little, but the mood at the table was still moving towards silence.
Michael changed the subject appropriately: "Mr. York knows what's going on. How can men from my Sheffield family achieve anything in the future without going through some experiences?
You know, this guy borrowed Fuhr's car to go out on a date while he was on administrative leave, which is enough to show his attitude towards this matter."
Valerie turned to look at Furl.
Furr nodded: "He called me about what happened the day before yesterday."
Uncle Graham on the side interjected appropriately: "Sir York, next time you want a car for your birthday, you can tell me."
The topic was successfully changed. Yorks breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile: "Okay, Uncle Graham, you can expect to lose money then."
Graeme smiled and said nothing.
The atmosphere was restored to a certain degree. Everyone knew that York's will had always been firm, and no one could stop him from doing what he wanted to do, so his family could only bear it silently.
"Which girl is it? Yorks."
York felt his sleeve being pulled and turned around to see that it was his sister Lillian who said that.
This has attracted everyone's attention again.
"Secret." Thinking of Tifa, Yorks said calmly facing everyone's gaze.
"I'll introduce you to him next time."
After saying that, York took this opportunity to stand up and prepare to leave, and said to Michael, the oldest elder in the family:
"I'm full, Grandpa, and I have something else to do."
Michael nodded: "Go ahead."
Yorks nodded to the others, patted the top of Lillian's head, who looked unhappy and somewhat resisted his actions, and turned and left under the gaze of everyone.
Apart from this time, there is little description of the family background, which is to lay the foundation for future big scenes and dealing with those crazy powerful people.
