Chapter nine hundred and sixteen: simple folk customs in Chicago(2/2)
This kind of forced buying and selling is similar to having a black brother pour foam water on your windshield while driving at a traffic light.
However, many tourists with good wallets may give up after seeing this tattoo and dreadlocks, thinking that it is better to do less than to do more. Chicago has never been a friendly city. Looking at the shooting warning location is like looking at the weather forecast.
In a peaceful world, things like shootings should not be too normal. Normal people would always have $50 in their wallets to buy life, and they might be able to save your life at some point.
"If you don't want to buy it, I'm in a hurry. Please give it a try."
However, Lin Nian will not accept this trick. The last guy who could forcefully buy and sell with him is still stuck at the bottom of the Kuimen River in the Three Gorges as a specimen, but he will not lose his temper in the street and move forward.
After two steps, the guy with the dreadlocks was shaken by a 'Shammgod' before he could react. A black guy who was passing by and playing ball suddenly yelled "Oh, Damn!" and shouted out in response to the tactics.
This neat move showed high respect.
The little brother with the dreadlocks was not angry, and quickly turned back to chase the fat sheep. No, he was chasing Lin Nian. Without giving up, he lowered his head and quickly walked around in front of Lin Nian, walking backwards in front of Lin Nian. "Look, they are really cheap! These gadgets are really cheap."
Son, there are also necklaces, rings, etc., all handmade by my grandma, and they are only sold at cost price. I am also rushing to sell some money to buy medicine for my grandma."
"No money, get out of the way." Lin Nian was a little impatient and impatient. He probably felt that the other party was affecting his ability to listen to Su Xiaoqiang's words on the other side of the phone.
As for what my grandma made by hand, I'd be a fool to actually write it. Most of the things hanging in these jackets are stolen goods. I don't know where they were stolen from. What can be sold and earned?
Using their money to buy Ye Zifei is the normal life of these street gang members.
The little brother with the dreadlocks was still talking about his treasures. Just when Lin Nian was about to take a step further and trip this guy up, his peripheral vision suddenly stopped on the other person's neck. The black neck was like a dummy on the display cabinet.
There are a bunch of necklaces of all kinds, including gold, silver and rhinestones, and even old-school three-chain pearl necklaces.
"?"
Lin Nian stopped. He suddenly stopped and reached out, grabbed one of the jewelry around the neck of the little brother with dirty braids and pulled it out from the trash.
What fell into Lin Nian's hand was a tooth hanging from a dark red knot. The texture was close to ivory but the color was deeper. There was some faint green in the white, giving it an expensive texture.
"Okay, my friend has good taste." The little brother with the dreadlocks said quickly.
He was not afraid that Lin Nian would start robbing him, but he was afraid that Lin Nian would completely ignore him. Seeing that Lin Nian had chosen what he wanted, he quickly persuaded him, "This is a new product that I just got. I mean a new handicraft made by my grandma."
, it’s still warm, and I saw that the texture of the jade is not there, pure blue and white jade! The normal price can be sold for uh, it should be more than a few thousand dollars? If you want it, my friend, I will sell it to you at a discount of 698, but can you let go first?
"
The black guy felt a little uncomfortable with his neck being pulled like this. Maybe the real source of discomfort was not being pulled by this accessory, but the sudden feeling of suffocation and pressure he felt, just like the temperature of the sun in Chicago suddenly rose.
A lot, and the air pressure is also a lot higher
"Where did this thing come from?" Lin Nian withdrew his hand. The little brother with the dreadlocks couldn't react. The thing had already left his neck. He didn't know how the other party pulled the thing over his head.
"Bro, didn't I tell you, this is my grandma?"
"To be honest, you can get ten times the going price." Lin Nian said calmly, looking at the 'teeth' lying quietly in his hand.
No one would believe the nonsense about handicrafts made by grandma, unless his grandma is a rare 'craftsman' in the mixed-race underground world, but even 'craftsmen' can rarely turn the bones and blood of pure-blood dragons into
, the corners are processed to this extent, right?
The teeth of a pure-blood dragon are at least the next-generation 'horns'. Why can a black man from a local gang in Chicago obtain such a thing? And it will appear openly on the streets of Chicago.
"Hey friend, it's a rule not to ask the source when buying something." The little brother with the dreadlocks was not tempted ten times by the so-called expert. Instead, because of Lin Nian's questioning, he started to look around with unusual caution, and looked at Lin Nian again, probably
I suspect that this guy is someone from Chiago P.D. who is fishing for law enforcement to record evidence against him.
Lin Nian finally frowned. Just as he was about to do something further, Su Xiaoqiang's voice suddenly rang on the phone next to his ear: "Lin Nian, are you still there? If you arrive first, remember to open two more suites. We
I met a schoolmate here."
"Alumni?" Lin Nian stretched out his hand to signal the dirty-haired boy in front of him to stop talking for the time being, and gestured to his pocket to signal that he wanted the thing, and stabilized him first.
"Yes, an alumnus you would never expect."
"Is it someone I know?" Lin Nian was close to the answer with just one word.
"That's right? I'm not sure if you remember the cheerleader of Shilan Middle School. Do you still remember him?"
"I don't remember much."
"Hmm" Why is there a feeling of relief on the other end of the phone?
Su Xiaoqiang said: "Anyway, she is a freshman in a new college, the class of 2011. She is a very beautiful school girl. We met at the Chicago train station. She had the CC100 Express magnetic card in her mouth."
At this time, Lin Nian suddenly heard a strange and pleasant voice on the other side of the phone saying something vaguely not far away: No, the senior is still pretty. Is that the senior's boyfriend on the other end of the phone?
He must also be a super handsome senior, right?
"Wait, why are there two suites?" Lin Nian asked again.
"Xia Mi is the older brother of the school girl who also came to Chicago with her. He seems to be worried about her coming here to study alone. He wants to send her to the train station going to school. But now we have encountered a little trouble."
Su Xiaoqiang seems to have a headache here,
"We got lost with her brother at the train station. I don't know where he went. Even when I called him, his phone was turned off. You can go to the hotel and book a room with Lu Mingfei later. ("What do you mean by booking a room with me?"
Lu Mingfei's eyes widened, but he was glared at by Su Xiaoqiang), Chu Zihang and I still have to help find someone, Chicago is too big, I hope nothing happens before we find him."
"Well, what are the characteristics of the freshman brother of the school girl you mentioned? For example, his clothes and belongings." Lin Nian asked, looking down at the tooth necklace in his hand.
"cute."
"What?" Lin Nian was stunned for a moment.
"She said her brother is the cutest in the world? We will definitely recognize him if we see him." There was a strong bitter smile in Su Xiaoqiang's words. Maybe he felt that this kind of speech seemed familiar to him?
"Any other information?"
"Asian, with medium-long black hair and slightly curly hair, about 19 to 20 years old, the same age as us, but only 1.68 meters tall and thin. She said her brother has always been in poor health, so his face looks a little sick.
Bai, when he ran away, he was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt with a white horizontal striped T-shirt underneath, casual pants and white air-cushion sneakers. Oh, by the way, he was also wearing a family heirloom animal tooth pendant."
"Okay." Lin Nian said, "I probably have an idea."
"So fast? (He has always been fast! Lu Mingfei's teasing voice was faintly heard on the phone)" Su Xiaoqiang was a little surprised.
"It's just a coincidence. I'll meet you later. I might be able to help. I'll call you if I find someone. Keep the signal on your phone open at all times." Lin Nian said briefly and then hung up the phone.
He looked up again at the little brother with the dirty braid in front of him, who was still deciding whether to sit on the floor and raise the price. This time, he no longer disliked the strong smell of leaves on the other person's body. Instead, he took two steps forward and put his arms around the other person's neck.
"Friend, playing the friendship card doesn't work. I have professional ethics." Halfway through his words, the little brother with the dreadlocks found that the food he had pinned in his front waist trouser pocket came loose, and then something hard came against him.
On his flank under his jacket.
His well-hidden gun was taken away, and he was completely unable to resist.
"The principal is right, Chicago is indeed a good place." Lin Nian looked at the stiff black cheeks nearby and said in his ear, "This is called a city of architecture. The streets are all designed vertically.
This means that alleys can be found everywhere, and the characteristics of these alleys are also endless, which is very useful when dealing with some private matters."
The little brother with the dreadlocks couldn't speak. He looked at the pretty boy's cheeks from the side. It seemed that it was due to an illusion. Why were those pupils filled with a light golden color like the sun?
