Chapter 54 A rare peaceful day
The next few days were unexpectedly peaceful.
Lin Jue took Dam and Emily to travel through most of Boston's scenic spots.
They even saw a sculpture standing in the center of the central square - "Wonder Woman".
The sculpture is engraved with lettering and the date "1915" next to it.
"1915...oh, shit, I'm such a...what's that classic Chinese phrase?"
Dam looked at Lin Jue for help.
"Frog at the bottom of the well!"
"Ah, yes, I am such a fool. That beautiful young lady we saw yesterday actually existed in 1915?"
"Shet!"
During this period of time, Dan not only traveled around to see the scenery, but also after what happened that night, he deliberately looked up relevant information. Now he felt that he could not contain his amazement at all, and even Emily beside him looked at him with admiration.
For ordinary people like them, it is unimaginable that one's appearance can remain unchanged during such a long period of time from that time period to now!
Unlike them, Lin Jue frowned tightly. Behind Wonder Woman, there was a heavy stone sculpture. The appearance of the stone sculpture was not clear, as if it was covered by something. At first glance, it looked like a stone as tall as a person!
When I looked at the sculpture that was illuminated, I found that there was no word carved underneath it. It just stood there like a foil.
……
Gotham East.
"Wow!"
Emily rushed into the bar with excitement, which was completely unrecognizable, with luxurious floor-to-ceiling windows and quaint interiors.
"This is... my bar?"
Bang! Snap! Snap!
Colored paper tubes exploded instantly, and Jodson and others who were hiding behind the door all held firework tubes in their hands. In an instant, colorful paper flowers fell everywhere.
Emily looked at Jodson with surprise, who was smiling at the moment.
"Uncle Jodson, is this really my bar?"
"Haha, there is still some budget left from the money you gave!" Jodson said with a smile.
Surprises continued to appear one after another. An excited smile appeared on Emily's little face. She ran quickly to each dining table, looking at the carefully arranged new tabletops and observing the delicate patterns on them.
She kept cheering and looked extremely excited!
Even Lin Jue, who entered the bar later, was somewhat surprised to see the newly renovated bar. Compared to the cramped and crowded bar before, the bar was now almost twice as large. At the same time, the decoration was more refined, and warning signs were still hung everywhere in the bar, without losing its original warmth and harmony!
"Wow! How come this bar has become so much bigger?" Dam walked in a little impatiently, looking at Jodson with admiration as he was staring at Emily.
All the subsequent decoration work was done by this unremarkable uncle!
Emily, who had quickly become familiar with the various decorations in the store, quickly rushed to the bar.
"Uncle Jodson, you must stay for a drink!"
Emily spoke quickly as she ran towards the wine rack. Seeing Emily's excitement, Jodson showed a loving smile on his face. His gaze paused slightly on Lin Jue, and the two smiled at each other and nodded to each other.
Soon, laughter echoed throughout the bar, attracting the regulars who came to check out Emily's tavern as usual.
With the arrival of each guest, the atmosphere in the bar became more lively.
Lin Jue walked quickly across the table and brought bottles of beer that Jodson had prepared in advance to the bar.
"Hey, have you heard about it recently?"
"Yeah, I heard that Batman was badly injured by a group of mysterious people. Damn it! This will cause another wave of crime!"
"Shh, Emily's Tavern just opened today, don't discuss these things!"
"Oh, okay, okay!"
Lin Jue listened carefully to the words behind him, and even in a noisy environment, he could get the information he wanted from different words.
Looking out the window of the bar, as night fell, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians around, and from time to time a speeding motorcycle appeared. The originally quiet night on Wallier Street seemed to have returned to its original state.
One by one, the customers said goodbye to Emily with a smile and walked out of the store. Lin Jue came to Dam. There were four empty bottles of whiskey on Dam's table at this time, and he looked slightly tipsy.
"Do you want me to send you off?"
"No need! Haha, I was so happy today that I accidentally lost control!"
Dam shook his fat arms with a big smile on his face, then stood up shakily. His home was actually not far from Emily's tavern, and he could get there in no time.
Watching her good friend slowly walk out of the store, Emily tiptoed behind Lin Jue.
Listening to the familiar heartbeat, Lin Jue did not turn around and pretended not to notice.
"what!"
Suddenly, a little head appeared from the side and made a face, and Lin Jue's body shook subconsciously.
Emily couldn't help but cheer excitedly after successfully scaring Lin Jue.
Lin Jue smiled helplessly.
"Dam is actually still in school!"
Emily said as she cleared the bottles on the table.
"Going to school? He does look young..."
"I heard that he was always bullied at school. He hasn't been to school since this year. Sigh!"
"Is there such a thing?"
Lin Jue frowned subconsciously. Dam had always given him the feeling of being full of sunshine and humor, which made him subconsciously ignore the scene when he first met Dam.
The people who seemed to be beating him at the time were indeed wearing clothing similar to American high school uniforms, but of course they were only individual cases.
When the two men finished cleaning up the bar, it was almost midnight. After saying good night to each other, they quickly fell asleep.
At this time, in the Gotham Police Department located in the center of the East District, the police officers coming and going were still busy at work.
"Hey, has the Judge been silent for many days?"
A police officer said with some complaint.
"Yes, the number of police reports has increased dramatically in the past few days. It feels like we are about to go back to the old days!"
"What a joke! When the maintenance of order is left to that super criminal, do you know what you are talking about?"
"…You are so noble and awesome. You should lead the charge next time!"
"..."
The black policeman had a look of pain on his face, with dark circles under his eyes. Although nothing could be seen from his appearance...he hadn't slept for nearly three days!
boom!
The sound of breaking glass was heard and a police officer could not help but yell angrily, however, a car passed by the police station at high speed.
Shouts rang out one after another.
"Fuck!"
A police officer instantly drew out the pistol in his hand and rushed out the door, but was quickly stopped by his colleagues.
"calm!"
George, who was at the back, shouted angrily. The police officer had a trace of humiliation on his face. He sat back in his seat dejectedly and threw the brick on the table out through the broken window.
