Chapter 22(1/2)

"Sixteen Candles" can be said to be John Hughes' debut, and he can be said to have given everything he had to this movie.

Everyone who works in Hollywood has a dream to be a director~

John Hughes is no exception. His many years of experience as a producer gave him the idea of ​​making a movie. Coupled with his many years of experience in the editing market, John Hughes became more and more confident.

The support of Universal Pictures and the endorsement of independent theaters allowed John Hughes to make a wonderful turnaround.

This incident also told him that if a man wants to have a successful career, he must have a fiancée who loves him~

But his fiancée has been out for a whole day and has not come back yet. Although he asked his fiancée Alice West's best friend, her best friend was still mysterious on the phone and refused to tell her.

In the past, John Hughes might have ordered a table of Western food to wait for her fiancée to come back, but now it was already ten o'clock in the night!

"Mr. West, is Alice at your place?"

"Aren't you here? Yes, I haven't seen her since I woke up."

After John Hughes hung up the phone with his father-in-law, he picked up the car keys on the table and prepared to go to his fiancée's best friend's house for personal consultation.

Jingle bell bell~

Jingle bell bell~

Just as John Hughes was about to turn around and leave, the landline phone on the table rang.

"Hello! Hello, Vesta family."

When Adnan heard the voice on the other end of the phone, he turned and glanced at Alice West, who had red eyes. He deliberately lowered his voice and said to John Hughes: "Your fiancée is in my hands. If you want

When she saw the sunrise the next day, she prepared 500,000 US dollars. Don't say you have no money, but I heard that your movie sold well and her father is also very rich."

After John Hughes heard Alice West's voice shouting "Help" from the landline phone, John Hughes instantly felt that his heart seemed to suddenly stop beating~

Before John Hughes could react, a blind tone came from the phone.

Adnan threw Alice West to the ground and took off his socks and blocked Alice West's mouth again.

"You just didn't tell his fiancé where to send the money!"

Adnan turned his head and glanced at his companion lying on the single bed and said nonchalantly: "Don't I have the final say in who is in my hands? And are there any living people who have walked out of our brothers?"

Alice West's hands were tied tightly behind her back by rope~

Alice West, who originally looked very graceful and luxurious, had already been holding her hair disheveled in the trunk of the pickup truck. Coupled with Adnan's ruthless methods, Alice West's face was swollen.

It's like a piece of bread~

Adnan lowered his head and glanced at Alice West and said to her nonchalantly: "I advise you not to make any weird noises! If you dare to use tricks, I will give your fiancé a gift.

Just your fingers."

After saying this, Adnan walked towards the door impatiently. His companion, who was lying on the single bed with his eyes closed to relax, saw Adnan's movements and asked, "What are you doing!"

"Don't be nervous, I'm going to look for my wallet and see if I left it at the hot dog shop downstairs!"

John Hughes looked at Bob West, who was sitting in the middle, with anxiety. Bob West, who was holding a cane and had a purple face, cursed the driver and nanny who were standing in the lobby.

John Hughes also waited eagerly for the arrival of the San Francisco police~

Although Bob West is very influential in San Francisco as his father-in-law, he doesn't even know who he is!

After Bob West came here, he first prepared cash, and then made several calls in succession.

Although he didn’t know who his father-in-law called, John Hughes knew that he must have called the police. If he hadn’t called the police, his father-in-law would not still be here peacefully!

"John! I'm warning you, if anything happens to my daughter this time, I will definitely make you look good!" Bob West glanced at his son-in-law standing in front and cursed with dissatisfaction.

John Hughes couldn't help but trembled when he heard his father-in-law's words~

John Hughes also knew that his father-in-law, who immigrated from England, did not like him from the bottom of his heart and would rather sell the candy factory in his hands than let the candy factory have anything to do with him.

Although John Hughes also looked down upon the candy factory established in the 1960s~

"I....."

"Shut up!"

Just when John Hughes opened his mouth to defend himself with Old West, there was a knock on the door.

After opening the door, before John Hughes could react, a group of plainclothes police officers walked in carrying large and small bags. Walking at the end was a young man with white hair but who looked very capable.

old man.

"Old West, don't worry, there is no one watching at the door. It seems that the other party is not very professional!"

When Bob West saw the little old man who took the initiative to talk to him, he let out a long breath. Just as Bob West was about to get up and stand up, the little old man also looked at Old Wei nonchalantly.

Ste waved his hand: "Hey! No need, we have known each other for so long, you don't want to see anyone else!"

Just when John Hughes was about to hear what was going on with his fiancee and these policemen, a young-looking policeman walked up to John Hughes and said: "Mr. John, I want to ask you something.

Apart from your fiancée’s best friend who knows that she is going to buy a second-hand car, who else knows about this matter..."

Bob West also begged the little old man with a dejected look: "Lewis! My daughter is begging you. Now I don't know who to believe. I just want my daughter to come back safely."

The little old man named Lewis said confidently: "These people must only be looking for money, and before I came here, I also found several informants who often cooperate with us to go to every gang to inquire about this matter.

Don't worry, they haven't asked for more money yet! At least your daughter is safe now."

Bob West felt slightly relieved when he saw the confident expression on the face of San Francisco Bay Area Sheriff Lewis.

Lewis looked around at his subordinates who were working and nodded with satisfaction. When he saw that John Hughes had begun recording his confession, Lewis also specifically recalled the various information about John Hughes in the police station.

!

The best thing as a police officer is to suspect everyone~

Although Bob West is an old friend of his, Bob West is also one of the top businessmen in San Francisco. He has reason to doubt whether his son-in-law is cooperating with others to have an affair with the newly arrived old West.

That huge sum of money in Te’s hands!

After all, the deal between Mars Candy and West Candy Factory was reported in the newspaper not long ago!

The transaction amount of 3 million US dollars is not a small amount at this time. Thinking of this, Lewis once again looked around at every suspect in the room!

The driver, nanny, and son-in-law are all suspects~

The police arrived in time and the loss of Adnan's wallet did not affect Taosi and Marco's rest!

Marco also enjoyed the bathtub that could only be bathed in Chinatown in San Francisco as promised. Marco glanced at Tao Xi who covered his face with a towel and swayed with the water in the pool and couldn't help but sigh.

San Francisco's Chinatown is a good place in Marco's opinion, because not only is the food here much better, but also the Chinese people here love to save money, so every time the two brothers are desperate, they will come here to hang out.

But Marco is not in the mood to eat those things now, because he feels that all his efforts this week have been in vain.

"Why sigh?"

"I just feel like we made a losing deal this time."

When Tao Xi heard Marco's words, he lifted up the towel covering his face, slammed it on the water in the bathtub, and cursed angrily: "No! I have never known what a loss-making business is!"

Tao Xi's roar immediately attracted all the attention of the entire bathhouse. Even the bath master who had been slapping others on the back was startled by Tao Xi's actions.

Marco didn’t care about that: “What shall we do next!”

"Although we also know that person's license plate number, we have no way to check their information."

"But the ID card named Adnan is in our hands. As long as we go back to where we were and wait, we will definitely be able to wait until he comes to find what belongs to him~"

After Tao Xi said this, he took the wooden sign around his hand and neck and went to the bath master to rub his back. Marco, who was still soaking in the bath, frowned and didn't know what he was thinking.

The night in San Francisco is still so peaceful~

The occasional police cars and low-altitude planes made everyone feel a sense of a huge modern city, but the San Francisco Police Department was particularly lively tonight~

Monitoring, patrolling, and secret sentry, everyone got to work, because today a rich man in San Francisco donated a huge sum of money to them. This huge sum of money was not only used to pay them overtime pay, but also gave them

It was quite a generous little gift for everyone, but Sheriff Lewis said that these little gifts would not be available until the case was over.

In the United States, the salary of all police officers is not very high, so there is a situation where these police officers are rushing to work overtime to get overtime pay. As for whether the overtime pay of these police officers is generous or not, it depends on the chief of each police station.

Will it be alms?

With the injection of capital from Bob West, the entire night in San Francisco suddenly fell into a state of excitement.

The Taosi brothers arrived at the Alameda used car trading center before dawn after an early morning drive the next day.

It's just that this time the brothers didn't lie down in the bushes anymore, because there were many unfamiliar faces where the brothers were lying there. What made Tao Xi feel most irritated was that there were even some people at the door. I started to consciously stare at pedestrians.

The premise for the implementation of "wait and wait" is to give the kidnappers the courage to come here, but suddenly there are more and more strange faces. Even Tao Xi, who often doesn't interact with the police, knows that they are the police!

After all, no one would block the way of pedestrians in the United States, a country where gun ownership is legal~

Under the scorching sun, the two brothers wiped the sweat from their foreheads while lying on the roof, boredly counting the plainclothes policemen below!

"If there is a chance, we must apply for a visa and get an ID card, otherwise we will not be able to stand in front of the police and ask what they know now!"

Marco looked down at the group of plainclothes policemen taking away the people from the entire second-hand car trading market, curling his lips in disdain and complaining: "These stinky policemen are really afraid that the kidnappers don't know that they are plainclothes policemen! "

Tao Xi held up the camera in his hand and kept looking for that familiar face in the second-hand car market~

Just as Marco snored, a green pickup truck once again drove into the gate of the Alameda used car trading center.

Adnan couldn't help but get excited when he looked at the unfamiliar faces at the door: "fxxk! I knew those damn rich people were not trustworthy. I'll give you a surprise when I get back!"
