CHAPTER 17

  “Hi, Marian…”

  “Locke, did you meet Lev Hogwarts from Jeff Markie Law Firm today?”

  “Uh, yes, how did you know?”

  “Lev called me and praised you. I was confused. I called Anna, but she didn’t say much. She just said that you went to Jeff Markie Law Firm to handle a case today. She said you worked overtime tonight, so she called you now…”

  “Sorry, Marian, I embarrassed you…”

  “Stop, Locke, you didn’t do anything wrong, and I don’t think it’s shameful for you to be a policeman. You will always be my pride, and Anna said you did a good job. I hope you can get over the st incident quickly. I’m tired of you saying sorry to me…”

  Locke looked a little embarrassed. Facing Marian Locke, he always felt guilty, but he wanted to deal with Marian in his heart, and he longed for this kind of motherly love he had never experienced before.

  “OK, my mistake, I will reply as soon as possible, give me some more time!” Then Locke told Marian about his visit to Jeff Markey’s w firm in the morning. He automatically ignored the confidentiality provisions in the police regutions. The reason why Anna Davis did not tell Marian too much about the case was because she was restricted by the confidentiality provisions in the police regutions. Locke Lee has been taught to put his family first since he was a child. Moreover, he was an orphan since he was a child. It was not easy for him to have a family, so naturally he put his family first. This is why he wanted to take the initiative to solve the hidden danger of the Menodi organization in advance. He would never let his family be in danger. What confidentiality regutions are worthless in front of his family. After listening to Locke’s story, Marian was shocked and said, “Jesus, this is terrible. Do you know who installed that camera?”

  Locke stood on the balcony, frowning and staring at the bck SUV on the roadside downstairs, shaking his head and saying, “I don’t know, I’m just a small patrolman. The case has been handed over to the Detective Bureau and handled by the famous detective Tom Williams…”

  He had seen this car downstairs in the Palma Building in the morning. At that time, this car was parked together with the police car of the Detective Bureau. He didn’t understand why this car appeared here.

  What is the fucking ?

  Did Tom Williams really suspect that he was the one who installed the camera in Daisy Greenberg’s office?

  Is this the level of Los Angeles detectives?

  Just when Locke was hesitating whether to go downstairs and expin it to the other party, the bck SUV downstairs drove away.

  Uh, is it a coincidence?

  At this time, Marian said again: “No wonder Love called me to express his gratitude. It turns out that this matter involves Daisy Greenberg!”

  Locke asked casually: “Marian, what is Daisy Greenberg’s background?”

  Marian replied: “Daisy Greenberg is the only daughter of Steve Greenberg, another founder of Jeff Markey Law Firm. Steve and Love founded the w firm together. The firm was named after their fathers. I heard that Steve holds the majority of the firm’s shares. But unfortunately, Steve and his wife died in a pne crash while on vacation in the Caribbean 8 years ago. Daisy inherited her parents’ inheritance and is worth at least hundreds of millions of dolrs… ”

  It turns out that she is a rich woman. No wonder she is so cold!

  Locke blurted out, “I can probably guess who installed the camera…”

  Marianne guessed what Locke wanted to say and scolded, “If you don’t know Lev Hogwarts, don’t say anything. He is not that kind of person. His character is well known in the circle. Lev is Daisy Greenberg’s godfather. I heard that after the Greenberg couple died, Daisy suffered from depression. In the end, it was with Lev’s help that she got out of it. She also followed her parents into Yale and became a public interest wyer…”

  She smiled and asked, “Daisy Greenberg is very beautiful. You met her today. What do you think?”

  “Just like that!”

  Locke thought of Daisy Greenberg’s cold appearance and couldn’t help curling his lips, but then he thought that the other party’s parents were both dead, which was quite pitiful.

  Marian knew Locke’s romantic nature and warned him, “Don’t have any ideas about her. The Greenberg family is a rge Jewish family in Los Angeles. Their ancestors also came from Germany, but from Frankfurt’s financial street. The family’s real retionship is not in the legal circle. If you hurt her, the consequences will be serious…” “Mum!!!” Locke was speechless, and in his heart he agreed with Marian’s words just now. The camera should have nothing to do with Love Hogwarts. Marian ughed on the phone, and reminded him to go home during the holidays, and then hung up.

  After finishing the call with Marian, Locke felt warm again in his heart. This feeling was really good.

  He looked downstairs. Although the car from the detective bureau was gone, he didn’t pn to go out tonight. It wouldn’t be too te to go shopping the day after tomorrow.

  …

  The next morning, Locke arrived at the police station early and found Captain Jones. He told him about the bck female firefighter Maya Grant’s compint about his racial discrimination yesterday.

  Captain Jones listened to Locke’s words with a serious face, and said in a deep voice: “I will investigate this matter and will also find the parties involved to understand the situation. The word racial discrimination cannot be used indiscriminately…” Locke saluted, “Thank you, Sir!” Captain Jones nodded and said, “Okay, go and start your work!” Locke heard this and turned to the door. When he was about to open the door, Captain Jones asked behind him: “Locke, have you ever had a bck girlfriend?” Locke’s expression froze and he confessed: “No, Sir!” Captain Jones said: “I suggest you try to have an African-American girlfriend, so you will avoid simir accusations…” Locke hesitated and said: “I will seriously consider your suggestion…” After leaving Captain Jones’ office, Locke sighed helplessly and compined in his heart, damn political correctness! Not long after, David came over. Seeing that Locke had arrived early, he knew that he had already found Captain Jones. However, he did not ask much in the police station where people were coming and going. After a while, Locke drove the cssic car Victoria Crown out of Wilshire Police Station. “7Adam15, start patrol…”

  “Copy…”

  As soon as Locke hung up the radio, David asked, “What did Captain Jones say?”

  Locke replied, “He said he would contact the 9th Fire Station of the Fire Department to find out the situation…”

  He curled his lips and added, “He also suggested that I find an African-American girlfriend!”

  David couldn’t help ughing and appuded, “This is definitely a good idea!”

  Locke asked back, “Have you ever dated an African-American?”

  David recalled, shook his head and replied, “No, but you can try…”

  Locke raised his middle finger, looked at David with contempt, and compined, “The whole world is crazy!”

  He suddenly remembered the case st night and asked, “Is there any result? Will the Los Angeles Police Department sue Grandma Nancy?”

  David’s expression became serious and he said seriously, “I was just about to tell you that Henry Morgan’s case has been gagged. Don’t talk about it casually before the top leaders officially announce it. Understand ?”

  “Understood…”

  Locke shrugged. The top brass of the Los Angeles Police Department must be having a headache at the moment. The legendary detective Henry Morgan had used his death to defeat the LAPD.

  LAPD probably won’t prosecute Grandma Nancy, otherwise, it will lose face even more.

  “Zizi, code 2, someone at Universal Studios called the police to report seeing an illegal immigrant, at the main entrance of the Harry Potter House…”

  Locke gnced at the address dispyed on the driving computer and found it was very close, so he picked up the walkie-talkie.

  “7Adam15, Copy!”
