Chapter 36 You Know...

Edward was a little embarrassed to see Jason again.

Because, the leader of the special operations team thought of his promise: 'The police station has a bounty for the 'serial disappearance of women', a total of 500 yuan, and I will win it for you with a lot of points. ’

However?

Don't say 500 bucks.

He didn't even get a penny.

I didn't think about it before because of continuous things, but now that I think about it, Edward is even more embarrassed.

Especially after he considers Jason a friend.

Edward was not a man with many friends.

Therefore, he will not disappoint his friends.

Therefore, he tried his best to think of a solution.

"Going to be a consultant to a special operations team?"

Jason looked at Edward in surprise.

"right."

"Our special action team has special funds. Although it is not much, it is still possible to hire a special consultant."

"The weekly salary is 12 yuan, with an additional subsidy of 3 yuan."

"The restaurant and dormitory of the police station can also be used."

After nodding, Edward added

"The restaurant is free?"

Jason catches the point.

In an instant, Edward's sweat fell.

He recalled again the fear of being dominated by Jason's appetite in the restaurant.

His hands seemed to be submerged in cold water again.

The smell of dish soap reappeared in his nose.

However, Edward immediately told himself.

This is your friend!

You can't fail a friend.

"Yes, free."

"But you can't waste food."

Edward gritted his teeth.

"Can."

Jason nodded, then turned to look at the female pastry chef who was listening to all this in a daze.

She didn't understand why Jason had two jobs.

Mingming promised Teddy to become a special instructor of the St. Mungo's Student Union.

Now he has promised Edward to become a special adviser to the police department.

Do you want to change the restaurant to eat? Taste a different flavor?

impossible?

Although Jason loves food, it is impossible for him to do such an unreliable thing.

Um!

I must be thinking too much.

The female pastry chef immediately gave Jason a sweet smile. Jason restrained himself and didn't put his hand on the female pastry chef. He always felt that when the female pastry chef was smiling, he would have a little overlap with Denise. .

Not appearance.

It's... some kind of essence.

I must be thinking too much.

How can Denise and the female pastry chef be the same?

Totally two different people.

Jason thought, and asked formally:

"How much is the rent?"

"Um?"

The female pastry chef was taken aback, she never thought that Jason would ask such a question.

Then, subconsciously shook his head.

"No, I..."

"Must have!"

"I live here and need to pay rent."

"And... food."

Jason interrupted the female pastry chef and said seriously.

Seeing Jason's serious expression, the female pastry chef immediately recovered.

She knew she had to quote a reasonable rent, or Jason might leave.

But……

She has never rented out a house, so she doesn't know how much to report.

Just when she was anxious and didn't know what to do, a sentence suddenly appeared in her heart.

Rent, storage room 2 per week.

Food, according to the amount eaten.

"2 dollars a week."

"For food, it's based on the amount you eat, Jason."

Without thinking much, the female pastry chef said.

"Um."

"This is the first week."

Jason nodded, took out 2 yuan, and handed it to the female pastry chef.

"Are you rich?"

Edward looked at the banknotes in Jason's pocket, and his whole body was not well.

Because, he could see at a glance that it was at least 100+.

"Yes, I have."

Jason nodded again.

"But you're not a homeless man?"

Edward asked.

"Who said that homeless people can't be rich?"

Jason asked back.

"Then you still let me invite?"

Edward pushed up his glasses.

"It was you who offered to invite me to eat. Besides, I originally wanted to invite me back last night, but you told Banxi that you were busy with business..."

Jason said frankly.

Edward's movements froze again, and the palm pushing the glasses trembled slightly.

"Director Edward, are you alright?"

The female pastry chef asked worriedly.

"fine."

"It just hurts."

Edward smiled reluctantly.

His hand was stinged by the ice water again.

When he thought about Jason who still had 50+ debts but worried about 100+ savings, Edward felt that the smell of the dishwashing liquid between his nose became more and more intense.

jingle!

When the doorbell rang, Little Bansey pushed open the door and walked in.

At a glance, he saw the unlovable Edward on his face.

"Captain, are you going to wash the dishes again?"

asked little Bansy.

"No!"

"I've never brushed the dishes!"

Edward emphasized.

He's trying to maintain his decency.

And, kept winking at Banxi.

It's a pity that Bansi didn't see it.

"Before that..."

"Experience life?"

Little Bansey asked suspiciously.

"Cough, cough."

"What's the matter with Clive?"

After a few coughs, Edward no longer entangled in the previous issue. He knew very well that if he continued to entangle, his face would really be lost.

When it came to the case, Xiao Banxi quickly restrained his doubts and became serious.

"Someone's eyeing Clive."

"But not sure if it's the gang."

"I very much suspect that the guy got revenge by someone else."

"but……"

"A homeless man gave him food just now."

"Such guys are pitiful."

Little Bansi said, and couldn't help shaking his head.

"This guy is a stern little scoundrel, not worth our attention."

"You draw other people's attention to those characters that should be noticed."

"David, little David is dead, but the person who poisoned the 'ink' is not dead."

"He will be severely punished!"

Edward said.

"Yes, Captain."

Xiao Banxi saluted, turned around and walked out.

After Bency left, Edward's eyes turned to the female pastry chef.

"Do you need mint lemonade?"

The female pastry chef stood up smartly, walked to the corner of the counter, and gave it to Jason and Edward.

"Feel sorry."

After the lady pastry chef had left, Edward spoke again.

Apologize immediately.

The voice was very low.

So that the tone became heavy.

Such heaviness is naturally not because of the bounty.

But because he didn't think Jason should have been pulled into such muddy waters in the first place.

But things have happened, and it's too late to say anything.

Therefore, Edward can only let Jason know as much as possible, what they are facing.

After a slight pause, Edward spoke again.

His voice was even lower, if it wasn't for Jason's perception, it would be impossible to hear those words——

"Do you know the 'Ghost Squad'?"
