Kai reported to Los Angeles on the third day. This time he was the only one to go to Los Angeles. As for Kelly and the others, it would take some time. After all, there were still many things to deal with in Chicago, such as Kelly's studies and the house in Chicago.
According to Kai's wish, the house was originally sold. Anyway, it didn't cost much when it was bought, so it would be okay even if it was sold at a loss. But Afu stopped Kai's prodigal behavior, and now the global economy is moving towards
Well, the U.S. economy has begun to pick up, and houses are purchased at low prices. They can be treated as investments and wait for appreciation. Although you will pay a lot of real estate taxes, those taxes are nothing compared to the increase.
But these are all trivial matters, and Afu will arrange for professionals to handle them. After all, Wayne Group is also a consortium, so it still has the manpower.
In contrast, Kelly's studies were a bit troublesome.
The University of Chicago she attended was a university with a strong academic atmosphere and one of the best in the United States. Although Kelly wanted to drop out of school very early, she had become a superhero after all. In her opinion, it didn't matter whether she went to university or not.
But Kai didn't think so. He didn't go to college and joined the army right after graduating from high school. His grades at that time were very partial, and he was very good in physics, chemistry and mathematics, but he was terrible at Chinese and English. In the end, he simply joined the army.
Well, being in the army at that time was not like it would be later. Anyway, when Kai joined the army, he had to serve wine.
In short, Kai is still yearning for college life. He feels that it would be great to have his own college life if he has the opportunity, so he is very opposed to Kaili dropping out of school, although this kind of thing is not uncommon in the United States. Many people can't afford the tuition or really don't have time.
People who study in college will choose to take a break or drop out. The maximum time for a break is five months. After five months, you can only drop out. But there is no time limit for coming back after dropping out. You just need to re-enroll as a freshman, so in college
Here you can see many older people studying together with a group of young people.
Of course, with Kelly's temperament, if he really dropped out of school, it would be difficult to go back. So Kay preferred to let Kelly complete his studies in Chicago.
Another point is their superhero status.
If Kai left Chicago and came to Los Angeles, and three superheroes who were famous in Chicago appeared in Los Angeles, how could that not be suspicious?
If Kai is really just a little policeman who doesn't get much attention, then forget it. But the problem is that Kai himself is also a high-profile person, and now he is being targeted by SHIELD. If there is such a big flaw around him, it will be very difficult.
It's hard not to be discovered.
So Kay simply ordered Kelly to stay in Chicago.
Even Diana was the same. Diana had just accepted an offer from the Art Institute of Chicago. It would be very eye-catching if she suddenly resigned and followed Kay to Los Angeles at this time, so she simply stayed with Kelly.
But Catherine didn't care, she was just a homeless person, so she followed Kai to Los Angeles.
As Tony Stark's temporary home, Tony's energy is still very high, and Kai's entry procedures were completed quickly. But there was a problem. That is, Kai did not work for the General Detective Bureau, but was assigned
I went to the Western District and became the leader of the Western District Major Crime Team, which was considered a promotion. I was promoted from Detective/MPO to Sergeant (3 mountain stripes).
This was beyond Kai's expectation. He didn't expect Tony to be able to do this.
In fact, this matter really had nothing to do with Tony. He just transferred Kai to Los Angeles and didn't do much else. Most of his energy was focused on fighting between the Department of Justice and SHIELD. Before that, Tony actually didn't do much else.
Didn't know S.H.I.E.L.D. existed.
But when Kai told him that SHIELD was related to his parents' death, he immediately began to investigate SHIELD.
This is a money society. Although money is not everything, it can definitely settle most things.
In the past, Tony and S.H.I.E.L.D. had no conflicts with each other, so they naturally got along well. Now that they have the hatred of "killing their father and mother," they will not let it go. So, for a while, some situations about S.H.I.E.L.D. reached Tony's ears.
inside.
Now Tony is competing with SHIELD and has no time to take care of Kai's affairs, so Kai has been transferred again, and he doesn't know.
In fact, this is a coincidence.
It seems that this position was created by Kai himself.
Didn't Kai use the alias Hannibal to kill Bullseye before?
Although Jin Binghen knew clearly that this matter had nothing to do with the local forces in Los Angeles, but so what?
As a gang leader, Kingpin must show unparalleled authority in front of his men. His chief killer is killed. If there is no reaction at all, it will inevitably be considered weak. For people like them, weakness means that they can
Being replaced, even by Kingpin.
So he has to be tough.
Then revenge began, and must begin.
Kingpin knew very well that the person who killed Bullseye was not a local force in Los Angeles. He even guessed that the person who killed Bullseye was Hannibal. But the problem was that Hannibal was too mysterious, and this person gave him a very special impression.
Very bad, Kingpin didn't want to fight Hannibal.
What's more, Hannibal has no real conflict of interest with him. It's not in Kingpin's interests to confront a dead man with a mysterious master.
So let's just take it out on those forces in Los Angeles.
The people in Los Angeles were wronged because they were willing to provoke that lunatic Bullseye. But in the face of Kingpin's attack, they had to either give in or fight.
The choice is actually very clear.
They all came out to fool around, relying on that bad breath and no spirit. Who is really afraid of you? So even if they knew that Kingpin hated the strong, the gangs in Los Angeles did not give in. No matter what, they had to wait.
Let’s talk about it after the fight, what if?
In short, Los Angeles has become a battlefield.
Since it is a war, it is natural to use all possible means, including all kinds of conspiracies and tricks.
Local forces also have advantages. For example, in local operations, the network of relationships is complex and strong, which is not comparable to that of Jinpin, an outsider.
So a group of gangsters and some corrupt officials and police teamed up to give Kingpin's forces a hard blow.
Kingpin was naturally not to be outdone, so he launched a counterattack.
His counterattack was very poor, but extremely useful - assassination.
In fact, as long as respectable people are very taboo about this kind of thing, wouldn't it be better to let the people below fight each other? Why should we let big people like them, who are delicate and rich, experience the horror of life and death? That is not in line with their status!
But Jin didn't care. Anyway, he didn't plan to take root in Los Angeles for a while. His focus now is still on the East Coast.
As a result, a group of corrupt officials and police officers suffered various accidents.
Among them, the leader of the Western District Major Crime Team is so useless.
Of course, the leaders of the Los Angeles police knew very well about the chaos below, and it was precisely because of this that they were very annoyed.
The people at the top, no matter how greedy or incompetent they are, still hope that their subordinates can be honest and capable. After all, if they want to go further, they still need some fig leaves.
It was precisely because of their irritation that they made up their mind to rectify the situation. At this time, Kai's order came down.
The big bosses can naturally see the files of Kai's time in Chicago, and they can tell that he is a tough guy, so we might as well let this tough guy clean up the mess.
So there was a new order.
Kai didn't care, on the contrary, he liked this life very much. He had been the deputy captain in his previous life, and now he had a full-time job, which was pretty good.
The only trouble is that Ah Fu needs to look for a house again.
The West End of Los Angeles is the economic and cultural center of the entire Los Angeles region, just like the city center in China. There are many famous cities here, such as the famous Beverly Hills, the seaside city of Santa Monica, and UCLA
University, Hollywood Hills, etc. In addition, there are hospitals such as Sinai Hospital, which is famous throughout the United States, and there are also many famous private schools. The characteristic of the West Side is that housing prices are higher than other areas in the Los Angeles area, and the houses are generally built in the same age.
It's older. Most of the houses don't cover a very large area. But there are also houses that cover a very large area or a lot of renovated houses, and the prices of these houses are relatively high. Life here is very convenient, and there are many famous
Attractions and shopping malls. However, there are very few Chinese supermarkets here and there are some Asian supermarkets.
On the contrary, there are more Chinese people in the East District. The Chinese people in the East District mainly like San Gabriel Valley. There are many Chinese supermarkets in this area, and there are many Chinese restaurants. Generally, banks, post offices, and hospitals have service staff who can speak Chinese.
.There are also many Chinese accountants, lawyers, etc. working in these cities. The public schools in many cities have very excellent results.
So Kai planned to let Afu buy a house near the East Side. Compared with the more industrialized city of Chicago, the Chinese restaurants here in Los Angeles are much better. The Chinese restaurants in Chicago... to be honest
, it’s really quite average, because the Chinese there are generally immigrants of more than three generations, and their living habits have completely broken away from the Chinese habits and are more American. The Chinese food there... is really hard to describe.
Los Angeles is more international and has many new immigrants, which makes the Chinese restaurants here more authentic. Here you can find very authentic Sichuan and Hunan cuisine, which is very friendly to people who like spicy food.
Afu's work efficiency was very good, and he soon bought a house near Beverly Hills in the West District. Beverly Hills is a city in the West District of Los Angeles. It is located on a hillside on the edge of the Los Angeles Basin in the United States, and is connected to the west by
Santa Monica, bordering the Hollywood Hills to the east, Beverly Hills and the area's Bel-Air and Holmby Hills are generally known as the upscale residential areas.
The "Platinum Triangle" is one of the most expensive residential areas in the United States.
As the most famous wealthy area in Los Angeles, USA, within a radius of more than ten kilometers, top celebrities in the United States and the world live. It is one of the world-famous attractions. Hollywood movie stars, NBA basketball stars, world-famous artists and plutocrats from all over the world
Tycoons are buying houses and land here one after another, because owning a mansion here is a symbol of their identity and status.
However, Kai's new house is not in Beverly Hills, but on the outskirts. It is not very big. It is a single-family villa of nearly 300 square meters, with six bedrooms and three bathrooms. It also comes with a garage and a small swimming pool. This level
The house is not considered a luxury house in Los Angeles. It can only be considered mid-range at best. It just takes advantage of the location and costs less than a million.
However, the house is really good, very quiet, and the surrounding greenery is perfect. There are big trees and shrubs separating the house next door, so the privacy is very good. Most of the people who can buy a house here are upper middle class families, and the community security is good.
, the atmosphere is not bad, and they are quite friendly to each other.
The decoration is not too excessive. Of course, this kind of villa is mainly based on home comfort. It doesn’t pay attention to any style, just practicality. There is a small lawn in the backyard and a 5*5 small heated swimming pool, which can also be heated. But
Kai doesn’t think this thing is useful. Los Angeles has a temperate Mediterranean climate, with a mild climate all year round. It is generally dry and rainy all year round, with an average maximum temperature of 23.3°C and an average minimum temperature of 13°C. No matter how low the water temperature is, it is not much lower.
.
Apart from this, Kai is very satisfied with this house. The key is that it is less than thirteen minutes away from Chinatown.
Although Chinatown in Los Angeles has become a bit deserted, Chinatown in Los Angeles is the largest Chinese community in the United States. Most of the earliest Chinese immigrants to Los Angeles lived near Chinatown. In recent years, with the development and changes of society, employment has become more diverse.
Due to cultural choices, many young people have immigrated to other places for development, and new immigrants are scattered everywhere. Now most of the people living nearby are Vietnamese, but they still use the sign of Chinatown, so many Chinese restaurants are still there.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Catherine still needs to wait a few days before arriving, while Ah Fu needs to take care of furniture, appliances, and some minor decorations and other chores, so Kai has been busy in the past few days.
He was staying in a hotel alone. He walked around Los Angeles when he had nothing to do.
There really wasn't much to see. Kai was originally looking forward to Chinatown, but after a day of shopping, he was disappointed. The buildings there seemed to lack planning and felt messy. The architectural style was also old. It was even messier than expected.
But in terms of appearance, Chinatown in Los Angeles looks like a small town in the far west of China. What's even worse is that most people there speak Vietnamese, but there are very few people who speak Chinese. Even if they do, they are half-yin and not yang-yang.
The Chinese is difficult to listen to.
There are some elderly people who can communicate in Chinese, but the problem is that most of the elderly here can only speak their native dialect, and not so good in Mandarin, especially those who mostly come from Guangdong and Guangxi, and Ke Kai can't speak Cantonese...
On the contrary, some time-honored restaurants surprised Kai a bit.
In particular, there is a Hunan restaurant. The owner is a new immigrant and an authentic native of Yueyang, Hunan. Although Kai doesn’t speak Hunan very well, he and Mandarin are not too far apart and they can understand each other. The owner is not good at English, so he is the one who greets the guests.
The eldest daughter, son-in-law and second daughter.
His second daughter is a college student, studying at UCLA, and his eldest daughter is studying at a university in China. She met her current husband because of an exchange student career. His husband is a third-generation immigrant. This store was originally owned by his son-in-law.
A generation ago, because the Chinese valued education, the son-in-law had already had a decent job. Naturally, the restaurant could not continue to operate, so he simply transferred it to his in-laws.
My son-in-law will come to help when he is free.
The son-in-law's Chinese was very poor and he could only speak it in front of him. Kai was a little homesick because he saw a lot of Chinese people, so he simply ordered in Mandarin. The son-in-law was confused, and then asked his wife to serve.
When I heard that Kai wanted to eat fish head with chopped pepper, Mao's braised pork, Dong'an chicken, Hunan stir-fried pork, and grandma's dish, my daughter was shocked by the ghost in front of her.
It’s not unusual for foreigners to speak Chinese, but there are very few who don’t have the slightest accent, not to mention the few who are so proficient in ordering Hunan cuisine.
After the boss heard about it, he came out to chat with Kai.
After chatting for a while, Kai said that he had lived in Hubei for more than ten years. The boss was also very happy. Although Hunan and Hubei are not in the same province, the customs and habits of the two neighbors are not too different, so it can be considered a collision.
I’m here, fellow villager Banla.
So I just came up with the really good stuff.
Yueyang's roast butter, the boss proudly said that his is the authentic Yueyang Gregorian roast butter.
Kai had eaten Gregorian roasted butter in his previous life. Maybe it was due to the difference in ingredients. Although the taste was a little different, it was very enjoyable to eat. Americans can't eat this.
