"Ha..."

Luke yawned and walked down from the second floor and greeted Li Zhaofeng and the little fat man who were sitting in the restaurant.

"Good morning."

The little fat man usually puts the dinner plate and says, "You got up late."

Luke sat at the dining table, "Just right."

Because he was followed last night, Luke slept a little uneasily. If those two people still dared to follow them, Luke would definitely settle their accounts with his own money and profit.

"It's out of the pot." Li Zhaofeng began to fish out the dumplings.

The little fat man spread his hands, "Didn't you just eat dumplings last night?"

Li Zhaofeng drained the dumplings and said, "This is a tradition in our hometown."

The little fat man asked curiously, "Dad, how many years have you been in America?"

Li Zhaofeng thought for a moment, "It's been almost thirty years."

"How long has it been since you returned to China?"

Li Zhaofeng thought for a while, "Nearly ten years."

The little fat man asked curiously, "You always talk about tradition, but I have never seen you go back to China."

Li Zhaofeng brought two plates of dumplings and placed them on the dining table, "Ten years ago, your great-grandfather passed away, so your grandfather no longer cared about him and did not make any arrangements to return to China.

Another thing is that the cost of returning to China is too high. In addition to air tickets, there are all kinds of people and connections, and even relatives borrowing money.

Basically, you borrow without repaying it, no matter how much it is, you won’t feel happy.”

Li Zhaofeng put a plate of dumplings in front of him, "Do you eat Laba garlic?"

"I'll eat it." Luke hadn't eaten Laba garlic for a long time, so the dumplings with Laba garlic added a new flavor.

Li Zhaofeng held a glass bottle with green garlic cloves soaked in vinegar. He gave his eldest son a few cloves and asked his younger son, "Do you want it?"

"No, I don't like the smell in my mouth."

Li Zhaofeng said, "Laba garlic doesn't have much flavor, so it's okay to eat two less."

The little fat man took a look at it and shook his head, "Forget it, the color looks weird."

Luke actually ate with gusto. Since it was the Chinese New Year, it would be more appropriate to eat some traditional food, and it would add to the atmosphere.

The little fat guy doesn’t like to eat garlic, but the dumplings stuffed with beef and green onions are very delicious. The skin is thin and the fillings are big. The meatballs are very firm. They are basically one bite or two.

While eating, he muttered, "Dad, what plans do we have today?"

"I will go to your grandpa's house for a reunion dinner at noon. This year is over. I want to take you to Chinatown in the afternoon. The last time I went, it was already too late and I didn't have time to play.

There are still some good things there." Li Zhaofeng hopes that his two sons can learn more about China's traditional culture.

From this point of view, although Luke does not speak much, he is more familiar with and more adaptable to the traditional Chinese culture.

Jack is worse, more curious, but it is good to be curious. The more you know, the more you will understand.

The little fat man asked, "Will my aunt and family be going too at noon today?"

"Yes." After speaking, Li Zhaofeng explained, "According to the tradition in our hometown, we usually go back to our parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year. However, there is no holiday in New York during the Spring Festival. Everyone has their own things to do, so we just sit together and get together."

The little fat man said, "California has listed the Spring Festival as a legal holiday. Today is the first year of official implementation. Our school has a day off. It is for this reason that it is easier for me to take a long leave."

Li Zhaofeng nodded, "This is a good sign. I hope the New York government can also learn from it."

"Ding ding ding..." Luke's cell phone rang.

He picked up the phone and saw that it was Matthew's number.

"I'm going to take a call."

"Aren't you going to eat dumplings?" The little fat man finished his portion and stared at the dumplings on Luke's plate. Luke ate them in the dipping saucer and left the remaining dumplings untouched.

Luke "..."

I'm just taking a call.

The little fat man nodded to himself, "OK, I understand."

The little fat man was a man of action, so he ate the dumplings directly from Luke's plate.

Luke "..."

I didn't say anything, how could you understand?

What else could Luke say? He couldn't turn off the phone, which was thousands of miles away. He could only comfort himself with the thought that there would be a big meal at noon.

It’s better to eat less, eat something good at lunch, and make up for it.

Luke returned to his bedroom and pressed the answer button, "I'm Luke."

"Captain, I checked the license plate number. It's a fake car. The original car should be a white Toyota."

"Is there anything else?"

"No."

"I see."

"Is there anything else?"

"Thank you for your hard work. I'll treat you to a drink when I go back."

Luke hung up the phone, not very surprised by the result.

Luke would be even more surprised if someone dared to follow him with their own car.

Who is he?

There are so few clues that it's hard to guess.

The best way is to wait until they follow them next time and ask Luke himself.

There may be some misunderstandings and minor frictions during the inquiry process, and Luke needs to find someone to support him first.

Luke thought for a while, took out his mobile phone and dialed Anthony's number, "Hey, is it okay to talk?"

"Yeah, do you want to buy me a drink?"

"Wait until I go back.

I'm in New York now and I'm in a little trouble."

"What did you do in New York?"

"My father is here in New York, and I'm here to spend the Spring Festival with him."

"A traditional festival in China?"

"Yes."

"Thanks to your father, I also have one more day off."

Luke smiled, "Then you have too many people to thank."

"OK, tell me, what happened to you?"

"Last night, I was followed by someone. I asked them to check and found that it was a fake car."

"What do you want?"

"I'm worried that I will conflict with them. Lapd's identity is not easy to use here. I need an identity backing.

Can you help me get an identity with the FBI?"

"You want to join the FBI?"

"No, just get a temporary identity."

"The work of the FBI is very important, and the identity requirements for agents are very strict, so it is not easy.

However, I can help you think of a way."

"Thank you, I owe you a favor." Luke hung up the phone.

In fact, Luke was not very worried about his own safety. He carried two pistols with him, which were enough to protect himself. He was just worried that it would affect his relatives.

After the meal, the family of three drove to Grandpa Luke's house.

As soon as he got off the car, the little fat man ran in and shouted, "Happy New Year to grandma and grandpa, I wish you a happy New Year."

"Okay, okay."

The old couple hurriedly came out and said, "Happy New Year, I'll give you a red envelope."

The little fat man happily took it, opened it, and saw that there was one hundred dollars inside, and he smiled even happier.

Luke also paid New Year greetings and also received a red envelope.

Luke already had a job. He didn't want it at first, but he couldn't stand it and gave it to him.

Since it was the old man's wish, Luke accepted it.

Not long after, my uncle and aunt also came.

The little fat man went to pay New Year greetings again and received another red envelope.

Will did not follow him. Although Li Zhaonian had a smile on his face, it was a little forced. As soon as he entered the door, he went to the kitchen to work.
