The next day, the weather turned gloomy again, and the gray sky seemed like it was going to rain soon.
When Luke and his companions went out, they saw a long queue outside Fudge's office again. The number of people was even greater than yesterday, and among them were many unlucky children with sad faces who were caught by their parents.
Selina laughed out loud: "See? See? Charlie and Laka are over there."
Of course Luke saw it, so he turned the steering wheel and pulled over to the side of the road, saying hello to the four people who were muttering not far from the office: "Temple, Barbara, good morning."
Temple turned his head and saw that it was Luke. He immediately laughed: "Long time no see, are you going to work?"
Luke nodded and asked knowingly, "Yeah, what are you doing?"
Temple: "Sign these two guys up for community service."
Luke looked at Charlie and Laka with a big smile on his face: "Hey, it seems like you have made a lot of progress in your thinking recently. Keep up the good work. I have always been optimistic about you."
The two black boys looked sad: "Hello, Boss Luke, hello, Boss Selina."
They couldn't change this name after they finished their last odd job.
Of course, they would never appear in front of Luke unless it was unavoidable.
At this moment, there is no escape.
What’s even more terrifying is that in addition to the two “bosses” Luke and Selina, they also have a mother and sister who are under a tight curse that they can never escape from for the rest of their lives.
A fat black woman, who was not very tall, waved at Luke and the other person with a big smile on her face: "Luke, Selina, thank you for last time. But why didn't you call me? I wanted to invite you to my house for dinner."
Luke smiled and said, "Barbara, you are still so cheerful. We have been very busy recently and really don't have time. But I am optimistic about Laka for this community volunteer service. He will definitely be selected. He and Charlie have experience in decoration."
This Barbara is of course Laka’s mother.
Barbara nodded repeatedly when she heard this: "Yes, yes, that would be great."
This is like the gate of hell has opened wide! What good is there? Laka's face is filled with despair.
But what can he say? One is his mother, and the other is the scary killer. He can't afford to offend either of them.
While they were chatting, a car stopped by the roadside. Fudge and Matt got out. Fudge said to Luke, "You are here? It just so happens that the agreement is here. Take a look at it first and tell us if there is anything that needs to be modified."
As he spoke, he took out an agreement from his briefcase and handed it over.
Luke took it casually, scanned it at a speed of one page per second, and laughed: "You think more carefully than I do. This will do."
As he said that, he handed the agreement to Selina: "Sign it first."
Selena found a pen in the glove box, signed a few places where signature was required, and then wrote a check for fifty thousand U.S. dollars and handed it back together.
Luke also signed his name on the agreement and wrote a check for fifty thousand US dollars. Finally, he put the two checks in the agreement and handed it to Fudge.
Fudge was stunned: "This is too fast, isn't it? You should take it back and have a look first."
He was actually quite afraid of people who were too happy to sign because most of them didn't really read the contract and would argue when something went wrong.
Of course other lawyers don't care, as long as they get the money, but Fudge has no habit of cheating clients out of their money.
Luke shook his head. "This agreement sounds simple. I understand it clearly. We still have to go to work. We can't talk too much. Byebye, everyone."
Fudge took the agreement reluctantly and watched Luke's car drive away.
Temple looked curious, but refrained from asking.
Barbara, a black woman with a lively personality, couldn't help but ask: "Are Luke and Selina looking for a lawsuit against you?"
Fudge hesitated and looked at Matt.
Matt coughed lightly and nodded slightly, and Fudge understood: "No, they are donors and the initiators of the volunteer reward program for the reconstruction of the community."
Barbara was stunned.
Temple's face was filled with realization, and he subconsciously looked at his brother and Laka.
At this time, Barbara said uncertainly: "Are you talking about letting Laka do volunteer work so that he can get subsidies for poor families?"
Fudge nodded, "Yes."
"They are donors, so doesn't that mean they are the ones who pay Laka and others to volunteer?" Barbara said this as she followed her train of thought and suddenly came to her senses.
"Wait, he just said that Laka will definitely be selected." Barbara looked at Fudge: "Fudge, look at Laka's volunteer work..."
Fudge nodded helplessly: "Yes, Luke and the others are very "optimistic" about Charlie and Laka's "work ability", they must be able to do it."
Charlie and Laka's eyes almost popped out of their sockets: WTF? Things like working as a coolie are all decided by the authorities, is there still a law? Is there still a law
Temple looked at the expressions of the two black boys, and then thought of Luke's assurance that they would definitely be selected, so he could only smile bitterly and shake his head.
Luke has always remembered these two guys.
Fudge looked at the expressions of Charlie and the others, and still felt that he had to comfort them a little: "Don't worry, Hudson has also been named. I called his mother last night, and he will come over later. You can get together, and I'm sure you will be much happier at work."
With that, he and Matt hurried upstairs.
I hadn’t finished applying for the charity fund yesterday, and today I still have to deal with Luke’s donations and volunteer recruitment. Today will be another busy day.
Temple smiled and patted Charlie's head: "Hey, Hudson is coming too, are you happy? You seemed to have said last time that Hudson should thank you or something..."
Charlie was speechless. He couldn't even protect himself, so he didn't care about Hudson.
If Hudson is not afraid of death, he can choose not to come. The two killer bosses will definitely make him realize his mistakes.
…
The weather was gloomy all day, and at night a drizzle finally fell, shrouding the entire New York in a misty rain.
Selina stood at the window, looking at Manhattan, which was still prosperous and bright in the rain in the distance. She took a big sip of hot cocoa, exhaled with satisfaction, and asked, "Continue tonight?"
Luke was looking at the information on the sofa, and he hummed, "I said I would collect half a month's supply for Jin Bing, but now I'm still a few days short. He has a big family and a big business, so he won't stand out without hurting himself."
Selina: "But this guy seems to be hiding from us. According to the intelligence from the police, the important members of the gangs we were targeting have disappeared."
Luke: "He can endure it more than I thought. If he can really endure it forever..."
Selina: "So we'll let him go this time?"
Luke chuckled: "What are you thinking! Then we can just eliminate his forces in New York one by one. I have always admired people who know the times and can cooperate with us."
