Chapter 783 Barbecue, children, fugitives
“I didn’t expect beef to be so delicious when grilled like this.”
Lacie bit off the last piece of beef on the bamboo stick and exclaimed while eating:
“Luo An, why haven’t you made this kind of barbecue before?”
Luo An smiled and said nothing. Next to her, Cheniel was eating barbecue and drinking beer. Sweat broke out on her forehead. After putting down the beer, she fanned herself with her hands:
“This kind of barbecue is really delicious, but it’s too spicy.”
"Really? I feel fine, Luo An didn't put too much chili pepper."
Michelle opened a new bottle of beer and handed it to Chenelle, smiling:
“I didn’t expect you to be so bad at eating spicy food.”
Luo An knew that not many people in the Federation could eat spicy food, so he put very little chili pepper and mainly used cumin and fine salt. Unexpectedly, Chenier was still sweating from the spicy food.
Roan took a bottle of milk from Little Jimmy and handed it to Chenelle, smiling:
“Drink some milk, milk will relieve the spiciness.”
“Thanks, but it’s okay, I’m okay.”
"Thanks."
“Does the shop over there sell this kind of bamboo sticks?”
“There is no way to continue baking.”
Chenelle took the milk and thanked her, but her hands didn't stop moving. She felt as if she had been poisoned. The more she ate, the spicier it became, but the spicier it became, the more she wanted to eat it.
Evelin finished eating the beef skewers in front of her. She saw that Luo An had a few more skewers in front of him and was too embarrassed to take them. Luo An smiled and handed them to him:
“It doesn’t matter, liking to eat is an affirmation of my cooking skills.”
"All right."
Evelin tilted her head and thought carefully, and finally shook her head:
“The information sold there is mostly water, fast food, and some tools needed in emergencies.
“Wait for me for a while, Evelyn, and try my handiwork later!”
“The grill on the oven is not big enough. If we cut the meat into smaller pieces, we should be able to cook a barbecue similar to this kind of meat skewers.”
Luo An took a sip of beer, waved his hands and said:
“What?”
“The bamboo sticks were given as a gift when I bought something. They are not many and have been used up.”
“That makes sense!”
Evelin smiled and thanked her. After Lacey finished her portion of meat skewers, she glanced around and saw that there was raw beef next to it, so she said:
“Luo An, let’s grill some more. This kind of meat skewers is so delicious.”
Michelle and Chenelle's expressions suddenly collapsed when they heard this, and a flash of regret also flashed in the eyes of Evelin and Winslow. Lacey thought for a while, patted Evelin on the shoulder and asked:
Luo An put down his beer with a speechless expression and asked:
“Do you think the store sells bamboo sticks instead of wooden sticks? Is it because the store doesn’t want to?”
Before Roan could say anything, Lacey jumped up, pulled Winslow towards the oven, and said to Evelin at the same time:
Luo An was not surprised. Bamboo sticks were not very common in the Federation. Yellowstone Park was a scenic spot and there were no normal shops in it.
There really is no such thing as a bamboo stick. "
Lacie smiled awkwardly, and Winslow next to her thought for a moment and said:
Lacey sighed and was silent for a second. Her eyes suddenly lit up and she pointed to the branch not far away and said:
“What about those branches? How about cutting them into sticks and inserting them into the meat and roasting them?”
“OK!”
Evelin nodded repeatedly, Roan smiled, and found a more comfortable position to continue eating barbecue. Together with Chenelle and Michelle next to him, the four of them chatted together.
On the other side of the dining table, Winslow's wife Lanita was eating meat and taking care of little Jimmy, while Mona sat next to her to help.
The barbecue in front of the two of them was specially made by Luo An. There was no barbecue with chili pepper, so little Jimmy could eat less.
But Mona’s mind was not on the barbecue. She was discussing children’s issues with Lanita in a low voice.
Lanita was quite surprised to understand the meaning of Mona's words. She glanced at Luo An not far away and asked in a low voice: "Aren't you guys not married yet?"
"I do not want to get married."
Because of her parents’ divorce when she was a child, and her mother’s experience of raising her alone, Mona had an unspeakable fear of marriage.
Mona didn’t want to say more about these things, so she gave a simple answer and brought the topic to the child again.
Upon seeing this, Lanita didn’t ask too much about Mona’s past, she just asked in a low voice:
“Is it your idea to have a child, or is it Luo An’s?”
“That’s what I thought.”
Mona picked up a napkin and wiped the oil stains on little Jimmy's face in Lanita's arms, and said with a smile:
“I want a child that belongs to me and Luo An.”
Lanita’s brows moved slightly:
“Does Luo An know?”
“He knows...he always respects the decisions I make.”
Mona glanced at Luo An not far away and said:
“That’s why I love him.”
Seeing the expression on Mona's face, Lanita's eyes flashed with a hint of imperceptible envy. As someone who has experienced it, she knew that this expression could not be faked.
Suppressing the envy in her heart, Lanita approached Mona and asked in a low voice:
“So, what you want to ask is, what can be done to make it easier to conceive?”
Mona nodded and whispered:
“Luo An and I have both had physical examinations, and everything is fine for both of us.
Luo An and I have never taken any special measures to avoid Y, but for such a long time, there is still no movement. "
Lanita raised her eyebrows slightly, reached out and covered little Jimmy's ears, and asked in a low voice:
“You and Luo An, um...what have you always been like?”
Mona's face remained calm but her ears were red, and she answered the other person's questions in a low voice. Their voices became lower and lower as they talked. Little Jimmy, whose ears were covered, yawned after eating the barbecue, and quickly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
At the same time, Roan, Evelyn, Chenelle and Michelle were chatting happily. Lacey and Winslow were studying barbecue together. I don’t know how the meat was roasted. Anyway, the two of them never stopped bickering. Pass.
“Good evening, everyone!”
Suddenly, a male voice suddenly sounded, and the sound of everyone chatting in the camp disappeared instantly.
Roan, Mona, Chenelle, and Michelle all stood up and turned their gazes to the direction of the sound. Winslow and Lacey also stopped arguing and turned around, even putting their hands behind their backs.
After careful inspection, everyone discovered that there were two people coming, both white men who looked to be in their thirties. Both men were wearing police uniforms, but the styles of the police uniforms were slightly different.
“Oh oh oh, don’t get me wrong, everyone.”
The movement of everyone in the camp getting up together also startled the two white men. They took a step back together, took out their police badges and showed them to everyone. The white man on the left said:
“My name is Frese, a police officer from Wyoming; his name is Duarte, a police officer from the next door state of Montana.”
Yellowstone Park is a vast area and connects Wyoming, Montana and Idaho at the same time. It is the junction of three states.
Seeing the two police badges and hearing the two introduce themselves, everyone in the camp breathed a sigh of relief.
The detectives of the special investigation team habitually looked at Luo An. Luo An put down the bamboo stick, stretched out his hand towards the two policemen, and asked with a smile:
“Good evening, Mr. Police, you’re not off work at this late hour. Did you encounter any emergency?”
xihao.
Fleiss on the left stretched out his hand to shake hands with Luo An and said with a smile:
“We have received notification that a murderer has recently escaped near Yellowstone Park. Our trip is to inform the campers to pay more attention and call the police if something is wrong.”
The expressions of everyone in the camp changed slightly. Luo An raised his eyebrows and asked:
“Mr. Police, could you please introduce the appearance and name of the murderer?”
Fleiss frowned slightly, and just as he was about to speak, Luo An took out the golden badge in his pocket:
“FBI.”
“?!”x2
