Nick was startled, took out his gun again and moved towards the door.

Slick looked panicked: "No, there are no tools behind it."

Nick: "Stand back and stand there." He also gestured with the gun in his hand.

Slick stood there helplessly, watching him suddenly push open the door, and saw the pale body of an old man hanging straight on a pork hook, looking extremely scary.

Moreover, the old man was wearing the work clothes of this barbecue restaurant.

Could this be the missing shop owner Henry

Nick suddenly raised his hand, pointed the gun at Slick, his face filled with shock and anger, and slowly approached the corpse.

Slick raised his hands obediently without any unnecessary movements.

Nick watched him warily, walked to the side of the body, and suddenly felt something was wrong. He sniffed, then immediately touched the cheek of the body with his hand, and immediately frowned: "Rubber dummy?"

Slick laughed out loud: "It's just a little joke. It's something Henry uses to scare newcomers. He says it's much more effective than dead pork."

Nick was silent for a moment: "Yeah, I understand."

Because he knew a man who used real corpses to complete the induction training of new employees. His name was Gilbert, and his last name was Grayson.

Finally, Little G found the phone and some wire clips and ran out excitedly: "Found it, we are finally saved."

Inside the store, Luke, Selina, and Haggis hid in a corner, sticking half of their heads out to watch the farce happening at the bar.

The middle-aged woman Shirley was telling Henry the story of her and her ex-husband Henry.

Henry was helpless about this. He didn't want to be called that name, but the middle-aged woman opposite him kept cursing her ex-husband "Henry", which made him very embarrassed.

Luke and the other two couldn't stand the woman's nagging, so they made excuses to avoid her. Only Henry, who had a sprained foot, was left behind and became the victim to attract Shirley's firepower.

"You know, he suddenly disappeared, took away all the money in our account, and even maxed out our credit card, leaving only this thing for me." Shirley said as she took out a postcard from the small bag she was carrying.

Henry looked at the message and was speechless: This isn't just bad, this is just mean to death, right

It would have been fine if he had run away with the money, but the former store owner went to Florida and enjoyed coconut juice with beauties on the beach. He even sent a postcard to tell his ex-wife, who was in a huge debt, that he and his young mistress were living a happy life.

If a man like this appeared in front of Shirley, he would probably be shot to death by her!

Shirley was obviously very sad and asked with tears in her eyes: "Have you ever encountered such a tragic thing?"

Henry was silent for a moment and shook his head: “No, boss lady.”

He had never encountered this, but he knew of a policeman whose wife had an affair because he had to work overtime for a long time. One day, the policeman came home and found that he had cheated on him. In anger, he emptied the magazine of his gun and called to surrender.

In comparison, Shirley's experience was not much better. Her love, family and career were all ruined.

Shirley looked at his expression and suddenly laughed: "You know, you're so cute."

Henry: ⊙_⊙?!

He could only give an awkward and shy smile and quickly looked away.

Xue Li put on a frivolous smile: "Oh, can you tell me why you came here today?" As she spoke, her hand had already touched his shoulder.

Henry laughed dryly: "Today is my birthday."

Shirley: "Oh, then why don't you come and have some fun with Aunt Shirley!" She stood up, took a step sideways, and sat on his thighs.

Henry stiffened. "Ah, no, I can't."

Shirley put her arms around his neck.

Henry: "Well, I have a girlfriend, and I'm engaged... In fact, I'm married. Um, I have... syphilis?"

Shirley: "Ah, what a coincidence, I have one too."

Henry: “…Really?!”

In his desperate eyes, a middle-aged aunt controlled his head with both hands and kissed him deeply.

In the corner, three heads with only eyes sticking out were motionless.

Selina's voice was as thin as a mosquito: "Are we really not going to save him? I feel like he's going to suffocate."

Haggis's voice was even lower: "Damn it, this is a blessing that comes right to his doorstep, why stop him from enjoying it?"

Luke's voice was also very low: "I think he looks like a poor girl being coerced by a bully."

Selina: "Yeah, look at his hands, they're holding onto the back of the chair."

Haggis: "When people are extremely comfortable, their hands will subconsciously grasp something."

Luke: "I heard that people only hold on to things when they are in extreme pain."

Selina: "His legs are all straightened."

Haggis: "Only men would understand why their legs would straighten at this moment."

Luke: "... You are very experienced? Then how about you go up and enjoy this "good fortune" for Henry?"

Haggis: "…I have a girlfriend, well we're engaged actually."

Luke, Selina: ...

The three unscrupulous guys just stood there and watched Henry being kissed forcibly, but no one tried to save him.

It was not until Nick and the other two came back that Shirley reluctantly let go of Henry, who looked like he had lost all hope in life. "Oh, cute little boy, how is Aunt Shirley's technique?"

Henry just wanted to find a place where no one was around and cry.

Not only was he forcibly kissed by an old woman, but she also reeked of alcohol, which was enough to suffocate a person.

But he was really not as strong as the other party. The other party ran a country barbecue restaurant and had been doing physical work for a long time, while he was a forensic researcher who fiddled with various lightweight instruments in the laboratory every day. He was no match at all.

Nick and Little G were stunned at the scene before them.

After a while, Xiao G stammered, "Henry, this is... your girlfriend?"

He felt guilty when he asked this question: Henry doesn't have such a strong taste, right

Henry didn't want to say anything, he just wanted to be alone.

After a moment, everyone confirmed the identity of the middle-aged woman Shirley. She was indeed the proprietress here, and Henry's wife.

Well, her husband is Henry, the owner of this country barbecue restaurant, not Henry the birthday boy.

What is even more speechless is that not long after this woman saw Slick, she started hugging and kissing the clerk and sat together, decisively abandoning Henry who was almost suffocated by her forceful kiss.

Everyone could only look at Henry with sympathy, and then Nick Little G. Haggis went out to answer the phone.

They really went to "answer" the phone.

Little G brought the phone and wire clip he had made, and asked Nick to carry him to the telephone pole outside the restaurant. After climbing up the climbing frame made of iron bars, he connected the wire clip to the line of the junction box.

Then there was a burst of chattering coming from the microphone. Xiao G tried to say a few words to the other party, but it turned out that the other party was talking to him in a completely different way.
