Chapter 175 Going to sea (five thousand)(1/3)
Becca Community, Robert Sullivan Home.
Robert Sullivan is a tall old white man. At four o'clock in the afternoon, he rolled the barbecue grill out of the garage.
This barbecue grill has been with him for ten years and is like a friend to him, an indispensable old buddy in his life.
Barbecue grills, marinated meats, and cold beer were gradually moved to the yard.
For a parent, family dinner days are indispensable and are the best way to bond among family members.
A black Mercedes-Benz G500 parked in front of the house, and a tall black-haired young man got out of the car.
Robert was a little surprised, "Hi, Detective Luke, I didn't expect you to be the first one to arrive."
Luke laughed, "I feel the call of the barbecue grill.
Grandpa, by the way, I am now the deputy team leader, deputy team leader Luke."
"Really? You've been promoted again."
"Of course, you don't want to see whose grandson I am."
"What a good boy, with my style, he is much better than your uncle."
Robert whispered, "Sometimes I even wonder if your grandma cheated on me behind my back."
Luke "..."
"Fortunately, your mother is like me."
Luke "..."
"Boy, stop standing around and come over and see how my marinated steak is doing."
Luke walked over and there were tomahawk steaks, lamb chops, tuna, sausages, etc. on the table.
“Excellent, almost Michelin quality.”
Robert said, "I heard Maggie likes to eat tuna."
Luke was a little surprised when he heard Robert talking about the little fat man's girlfriend without thinking, "Grandpa, why do you think of Maggie?"
"Because she also wants to come to the dinner party."
Luke was a little embarrassed, "Really?"
"Of course, I confirmed it with Jack. We are going to have a new member at our family dinner. This will definitely be a day to remember."
"That's right." Luke sighed secretly and changed the subject, "Grandpa, is there anything you need me to do?"
"Go and bring out the speakers. We're going to play some celebratory music later."
"As you wish."
A red Santana of unknown owner parked at the door, and a fat white man with a beard got out of the car, "Hi, my dear nephew, long time no see."
Luke smiled and said, "Yes, it's been a long time indeed."
"Aren't my dear old sister and the little fat man here yet?"
Robert said, "They will be here soon. Maggie will be here too. Val, you have to pay attention later."
Val patted his forehead and said, "Oh my god, are you kidding me?"
Robert pointed at him and warned, "If you mess up the party, I'm going to throw you out of here."
Val sighed and asked Luke, "What about you, have you brought your girlfriend?"
Luke shrugged, "She has been busy with work recently."
Val breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally I heard good news."
Luke "..."
Val said, "The little fat guy actually brought his girlfriend to the party. Don't you think it's too exaggerated?"
Luke didn't answer, but raised his chin at his grandfather.
Val sighed again, "Take out two green bills from his pocket and put them in Luke's hand. Give them back to you, thank you."
"Uncle, I'm not in a hurry."
"I have money now. I said I won't always be like that. Sooner or later, things will turn around."
Luke asked, "Have you found a job?"
"Yes, a friend asked me to help write songs." Val said perfunctorily, not wanting to talk more about this topic, "I heard that Angela was killed. Is this true?"
"You know Angela too?"
"Of course, we are considered the same generation, no, I should be considered her senior, having joined the band earlier than her.
Although I have never met him, I know more or less the characters from the same period, you know."
Luke thought to himself, many people know Angela, and I know her too.
Val looked curious, "Angela was really bitten to death by a vampire?"
"Angela is indeed dead, but she was not killed by a vampire."
"Then how she died, I'm quite curious."
Luke thought for a while and briefly introduced, "You should know that Angela creates music with vampire themes. One of her fans is also a serious vampire lover. After taking the unique product, he hallucinated and thought he was a vampire. Then
Killed Angela."
The confidentiality of the case mainly focuses on the details of the investigation, but the general situation can still be said.
Val's eyes widened, "Actually, I quite envy Angela, she has a group of loyal fans.
This is actually quite rare. Not everyone can have it."
Before Val finished speaking, a car drove directly to the door of his house.
Just as Linda was about to get out of the car, Robert shouted, "Linda, drive your car into the garage and don't block Luke's car."
Linda rolled her eyes but didn't say anything.
The little fat man got out of the car and said in an exaggerated tone, "Hey, grandpa, uncle, brother, look who is here."
Maggie stepped out of the back seat of the car, wearing a pink skirt and seemed to have been specially dressed.
The little fat man walked over to help me very diligently.
Robert smiled and greeted her, "Hi, Maggie welcomes you."
"Hello, Mr. Sullivan. This is my gift to you." Maggie handed over a box.
Robert opened it and saw a bottle of champagne inside, "Thank you, I like it very much.
Jack, take Maggie to visit, the barbecue will be ready soon."
"Hi, Maggie."
"Maggie."
Val and Luke both said hello in unison, and then both stood awkwardly beside them, not knowing what to say.
The little fat man took Maggie to visit the house.
Robert secretly gave the little fat man a thumbs up.
Linda said to her younger brother and eldest son, "Do you suddenly feel a little redundant?
It’s okay, you will get used to it.”
Luke and Val looked at each other.
"Grandpa, let me grill you."
"Dad, let me help you barbecue."
The two of them shouted in unison.
"NO, you two guys stay away from my barbecue grill.
What are you doing?" Robert was a little confused as to why the two slackers suddenly became attentive.
Half an hour later, the party officially started.
Because one more member joined, Robert seemed very happy and even opened a bottle of red wine that he had collected for 10 years.
The little fat man was also very happy, hovering around Maggie like an attentive little bee.
Val was a little embarrassed at first. After drinking two bottles of beer, Val let go and took the initiative to take out his guitar from the room and wanted to sing a song.
But Linda refused without mercy.
Maggie is an outgoing person and blends into family gatherings smoothly.
Luke also had a good impression of her, and they soon started chatting.
He told her about the scandals of the little fat boy when he was a child, which made Maggie laugh.
Now it was the little fat man's turn to be embarrassed.
