My last name is Stark after I changed my job to become a female musketeer?
Chapter 48 Roll down the window for me!
"Call the police? Old man, you know what kind of people those New York officials are. They don't want to come to Hell's Kitchen. Just think that I'm unlucky today..."
Old Duke sneered at Ben Parker's question about whether to call the police.
Ben felt helpless. Although he had to admit that what his old friend said was true, he still called the police station in front of him.
Old Duke did not stop him, but continued to clean up the mess on the floor.
The other side of the phone confirmed again and again that the incident had happened and the perpetrators had fled.
Then he promised to arrange for nearby police officers to go to understand the situation and hung up the phone.
Listening to the busy tone on the other end of the phone, Ben was silent and thought to himself that it was true.
No matter whether to protect the scene or not, there is surveillance anyway, so there is no need to worry about no evidence.
As for when to catch the person and whether to get the money and compensation back, I'm afraid it's impossible to think about it.
Sure enough, after the two men had finished cleaning up the shop, a police car stopped at the door of the pizza shop in a leisurely manner, and two police officers pushed the door open and entered.
"NYPD (abbreviation of New York City Police Department, meaning New York City Police Department), did you call the police here?"
The one who spoke was an old detective, who was definitely a seasoned veteran.
Ben saw his police car go back and forth on this street several times, and only stopped at the door after confirming that it was safe with the sirens on.
"I called the police, officer."
Ben Parker stepped forward to explain the whole story, and took the two police officers to watch the surveillance.
"Your case..."
The young policeman on the other side wanted to speak, but was stopped by the old detective.
"We understand the matter, you guys send a copy of the surveillance video to the police station, and we will investigate it as soon as possible, that's it."
After that, the old policeman took the young policeman out and got into the car.
Old Duke looked at the two people who went out, sighed, shook his head and went into the kitchen.
There was originally a young waiter in this pizza shop, but that guy didn't show up this morning. If you use your brain a little, you will know that there is something strange.
Seeing his old friend's depressed spirit, the pizza shop might have to close down today.
After thinking about it, Ben Parker decided to go to the clerk in person to ask him clearly, maybe he could get some information from him.
After saying hello to the old friend in the kitchen, Ben went out and started the car, intending to meet the clerk.
Living in the same community, Ben Parker also knew the other party's home address.
I heard from Old Duke before that the family was not rich, and the young man gave up his studies early to work for Old Duke.
Ben Parker still had some hope for him, and maybe the young man named Andrew didn't know about it.
Parking the car in front of an old house, Ben didn't get out of the car, but looked at a group of gangsters across the street who showed him malicious expressions.
Ben knew that the other party was not targeting him, but was eyeing this second-hand Ford 150.
The neighborhood where my home is located in Hell's Kitchen is relatively peaceful, so I am not too worried about the car being stolen, but the situation here is completely different.
After hesitating for a while, he took out something from the glove box of the co-pilot and put it in his arms, then pushed the door and got out of the car.
Looking at the gangsters at the opposite street corner, Ben didn't want to cause trouble.
He didn't want to use the thing in his arms, even if it was unknown.
He walked to the door of the house and tried to press the doorbell, but there was no response.
He reached out and knocked on the door again, and waited for a long time before an old voice came from inside:
"Who is at the door? Who are you looking for?"
It sounded like an old woman, Ben replied:
"I am Ben Parker, a friend of the owner of Duke's Pizza. Old Duke asked me to come and ask little Andrew why he didn't go to his store today."
At this time, another young man's voice came from the door, it was little Andrew.
"Mr. Parker? I'm... I'm not feeling well today. I didn't get up this morning. I... I'm sorry for not notifying Mr. Duke..."
Ben understood, "Can you open the door and let me in? I want to see how you are so that old Duke can be at ease."
"No!... I mean, no need. I have a serious cold. It would be bad if I infect Mr. Parker... cough cough..."
The old woman interrupted, "You have a cold, Andrew?"
Little Andrew, who was lying at the door and looking outside through the door mirror, turned his head and lowered his voice to his grandmother:
"Don't talk~"
"Mr. Parker, it's really inconvenient for me to entertain you here. Please tell Mr. Duke that I will go to the store to help tomorrow when I feel better!"
Understanding the other party's implied meaning, Ben nodded.
"Okay, I hope you get better soon. I will tell old Duke about your situation. I'll leave first."
Through the door mirror, Andrew was relieved to confirm that Ben Parker had started the car and left.
He didn't want to get into trouble, especially after witnessing the appearance of those people in the morning.
Ben Parker was about to leave when he was stopped by a group of hooligans just as he passed an intersection.
Among them were the group of people he had just seen at Andru's door.
The group of people, holding clubs and knives in their hands, surrounded the car and deliberately arranged for one person to stand in front of the car to prevent him from driving away.
One of them walked to the cab and knocked on the window with a baseball bat, indicating to him to lower the window.
"Damn old guy! Roll down the car window! Otherwise, I'll smash your car!"
Ben did not do as he was told, but calmly reached into his arms, slowly took out what Leni had given him, and showed it to the man.
"I don't want any trouble!"
Seeing the other party pull out a pistol, the gangster's face looked very ugly.
He didn't expect that the other party was a ruthless person, and there was a hint of sinisterness in his eyes.
But looking at the other men who were looking at him at a loss, he felt that he couldn't just let it go, it was too embarrassing.
Ben Parker didn't really want to use the thing on his hands, even though Leni said it was complete.
He slowly reached into his jacket pocket and took out the few dozen dollars in cash, signaling to the other party that he could give the money.
He opened the car window a small crack and handed out the small wad of banknotes.
The leading gangster had a sullen face, but for the sake of the pistol and US dollars, he decided to let the other side go.
He took the money away with one hand and motioned to the gangster blocking the car in front of him with the other hand to get out of the way.
"I'll let you go this time, but you'll be rewarded next time!"
At the end of the ceremony, the leader said something special.
Seeing the other person moving out of the way, Ben Parker breathed a sigh of relief.
He raised the window again, released the clutch and drove away quickly.
"Boss, such a good car... just let him go like this?"
The little follower standing next to the leader of the thugs stepped forward and asked.
The leader glanced at him.
"What? You want to get shot? Do you think this old man is simple?
Let me tell you, I've seen your boss before, and that old man's pistol looks like it's not a second-hand thing, it's a new guy!
Where do you think this is? Las Vegas or Mexico?
If you want to die, don’t hold me back, otherwise Happy won’t take you with me tonight! "
The man nodded and bowed in agreement, but he didn't care at all.
"Isn't he just an old man? What if he has a gun? My cousin also has a gun. He's just afraid of death. You coward!"
The leading gangster looked at him like that, and felt like he was in a mirror. Who hasn't been a gangster since childhood?
He simply ordered him to send someone to check the car and investigate where the old man came from.
If it were just a tiger, that would be fine. If it were a pig dressed as a tiger, he wouldn't mind paying him a visit at night.
The man hurriedly agreed and arranged for his two men to go do the work, and then the group was going to go to a bar on another street to have a good time.
…
After listening to Aunt Mei's story, Leni finally understood what was going on.
Knowing that the other party will not let it go, these gangsters will definitely continue to pursue the Ford Raptor.
In this case, it is better to take the initiative, catch the opponent off guard, and completely cut off the thoughts of these gangsters.
"Okay, I understand. You two don't need to worry about this matter. Leave it to me. I have friends in the New York Police Department and we can solve it soon."
Leni doesn't have any friends in the New York Police Department, it's just an excuse to hope that the two of them don't worry.
Aunt Mei didn't believe it all. She knew that Leni was very capable, but how could a scientific researcher be so powerful?
Aunt May called Uncle Ben and asked where he was. The answer was that he was helping out at Duke's Pizza.
Although it was not open during the day, it was still able to open a little after cleaning up for an afternoon.
Old Duke also planned to use up all the flour cakes prepared today, so that at least today would not be completely in vain.
In this case, Leni asked Uncle Ben to go home directly later, and she would go to school to pick up little Parker.
Ben Parker was very happy about this, and the unpleasantness of the day was gone.
