Chapter 48 Roll down the car window!

"Call the police? Old man, you don't know the virtues of those New York officials. They are not willing to come to Hell's Kitchen. Just think that I have bad luck today..." Regarding Ben Parker's question about whether to call the police,

Old Duke scoffed at this.

Ben felt quite helpless. Although he had to admit that what the old man said was the truth, 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 ground.

The person on the phone repeatedly confirmed that the incident had occurred and that the perpetrators had fled. Then they promised to arrange for nearby police officers to investigate the situation and hung up the phone.

Listening to the busy tone on the other end of the phone, I was speechless, but that was exactly what I was thinking.

It doesn’t matter what kind of report it is to protect the scene. Anyway, there is surveillance and there is no need to worry about the lack of evidence. As for when the person can be caught and whether the money and compensation can be obtained, I don’t even have to think about it.

Sure enough, after the two men finished cleaning up the shop, a police car calmly stopped at the door of the pizza shop, and two police officers pushed the door open and entered.

"NYPD (abbreviation of New York City Police Department, meaning New York City Police Department), are you calling the police here?" The person who spoke was an old police detective. It was obvious that he was an old man. I saw his police car here.

I walked up and down the street several times to make sure it was safe, then turned on the siren and parked it at the door.

"I called the police, officer." Ben Parker stepped forward and explained the whole story, and took the two police officers to watch the surveillance video.

"Your case..." The young policeman on the other side wanted to speak, but was stopped by the old police detective.

Through the door mirror, he confirmed that Ben Parker had started the car and left. Andrew breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to get into trouble, especially after seeing the appearance of those people in the morning.

"I don't want to cause trouble!"

After saying hello to the old man in the kitchen, Ben went out and started the car, intending to meet the clerk.

"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.

Little Andrew, who was lying at the door and looking out through the door mirror, quickly turned his head and lowered his voice and said to his grandmother: "Don't talk~"

Ben did not follow the instructions, but calmly reached into his arms, slowly took out what Leni gave him, and showed it to the man.

The leader glanced at him and said, "What? You want to be shot? Do you think this old man is simple? Let me tell you, I have seen your boss before. That old man's pistol doesn't look like a second-hand one. So what the hell?"

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!”

Seeing that the other person moved out of the way, Ben Parker breathed a sigh of relief, raised the window again, released the clutch and drove away quickly.

Understanding the other party's hidden meaning, Ben nodded, "Okay, I hope you get better soon. I will convey your situation to Old Duke, so I'll leave first."

"I'll let you go this time, but you'll be rewarded next time!" I said a few words at the end.

"No!...I mean, no need, I have a very serious cold, and it won't be good if I infect Mr. Parker...ahem..."

Looking at his appearance, the leading gangster felt like he was in a mirror. Who hasn't been a gangster since childhood? He simply ordered him to send someone to check this car and investigate where the old man came from. If he was really a tiger, he would still be there.

That's all, if it's a pig dressed as a tiger, he won't mind visiting him at night.

"We understand the matter. Please send a copy of the surveillance video to the police station. We will investigate it as soon as possible. That's it." After that, he took the young police officer out and got into the car.

Sounding like an old woman, Ben replied, "I'm Ben Parker, a friend of the owner of Duke's Pizza. Old Duke asked me to come over and ask little Andrew why he didn't go to his store today."

"

The leading gangster had a sullen face, but for the sake of the pistol and the 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 to get out of the way with the other hand.

They live in the same community, so Ben. Parker also knows the other person's home address. He has heard about it from Old Duke before. It is said that the family is not rich, and the young man gave up his studies early and went to Old Duke.

Work here.

The man hurriedly agreed and arranged for his two men to go do the work, and then the group was going to have a good time at the bar connected by the other road.

Ben Parker on the other side just wanted to leave here, but he didn't expect to be stopped by a group of gangsters just after he tried to cross an intersection, including the group he had just seen in front of Andulu's house.

Ben Parker still has some hope for him, maybe the young man named Andrew doesn't know about it.

Seeing the other party pull out a pistol, the leader of the gangster's face was very ugly. He did not expect that the other party was a ruthless person, and his eyes were a bit metaphorical. But seeing the other men looking at him at a loss, he felt that he could not just let it go.

It's really embarrassing.

Ben understood clearly, "Can you open the door and let me in? I want to see your condition so that Old Duke can feel at ease."

Ben Parker didn't really want to use the thing on his hands, even though Leni said it had all the procedures.

"Mr. Parker, it's really not convenient for me to entertain you here. Please tell Mr. Duke. I will go back to the store to help tomorrow when I feel better!"

After hesitating for a moment, he took something out of the passenger glove box and put it in his arms, then opened the door and got out of the car.

Ben knew in his heart that the other party was not paying attention to me, but was eyeing this second-hand Ford 150. The neighborhood where my home is located is relatively peaceful in Hell's Kitchen, so I am not too worried about the car being stolen, but the situation here is completely different.

.

Seeing that his old clerk was depressed, and he was afraid that the pizza shop would have to close down today, after much deliberation, Parker decided to go to the clerk himself and ask questions, maybe he could get some information from him.

Old Duke looked at the two people going out, sighed, shook his head and entered the kitchen.

The elderly woman heard this and interjected, "You have a cold, Andrew?"

The group of people held bats and knives in their hands and surrounded the car. They deliberately arranged for one person to stand in front of the car to prevent Ben from driving away. One of them walked to the side of the cab and knocked on the window with a baseball bat to signal him.

Lower the window.

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 and didn't get up in the morning. I... I'm sorry for not informing Mr. Duke...

"

He parked the car in front of an old house. He didn't get out of the car, but looked at a group of gangsters across the street who looked at him with ill-intentioned expressions.

He slowly reached into his jacket pocket, took out the few dozen dollars in cash, signaled to the other party that he could give the money, opened the car window a small slit, and handed out the small stack of banknotes.

He looked at the gangster on the opposite street. He didn't want to cause trouble, and he didn't want to use the thing in his arms, even if it was unknown.

After listening to Aunt May's story, Leni finally understood what was going on. She knew that the other party would not let it go. These gangsters would definitely want to get the Ford Raptor. In this case, it was better to take the initiative and catch the other party off guard.

, completely cut off the thoughts of these gangsters.

I walked to the door of the house and tried to ring the doorbell, but there was no response. I reached out and knocked on the door again. After waiting for a long time, an old question came from inside: "Who is at the door? Who are you looking for?"

There used to be a young waiter in this pizza shop, but that guy didn't show up this morning. If you use your brain a little bit, you can figure out what's fishy about this.

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're a coward!"

"Damn old guy! Roll down the window for me! Otherwise, I'll smash your car!"

"Okay, I understand. You two don't have to worry about this matter. Leave it to me. My friends I met in the New York Police Department will be able to solve it soon."

Does Leni have any friends in the New York Police Department? It's just an excuse for the two of them not to worry. Aunt May didn't believe it all. She knew that Leni was very capable, but how could a scientific researcher be so great?

Aunt Mei called Uncle Ben and asked where he was. The answer was that he was helping out at Duke's Pizza. Although it couldn't open during the day, it could still open a little after cleaning up in the afternoon. Lao Du

Ke 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 told 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 unhappiness of the day was gone.
