Yunding Ranch

Chapter 329 Awarding the Pennant
The conversation between Lu Li and Richard was very pleasant, maybe it was because of Ronald's matchmaking tonight, maybe it was because Lu Li caught the thief, but no matter what the reason was, Lu Li not only did not receive different treatment, but also got Richard Respect, this is very rare——

In the United States, conflicts between law enforcement agencies and ordinary residents are continuous, and you can often see the news on the headlines of the newspapers.The current situation of ethnic minorities, in particular, is worrisome.Lu Li has an Asian face, which is a minority.

But at this moment, Lu Li and Richard were teasing each other briskly, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

"Did you compare yourself to the traffic policeman just now? Or did I get it wrong?" Lu Li said in amazement. He felt that this was really hilarious, because in big cities, traffic policemen are despised positions, even Refusing to admit to being a part of the police/police department, but here, things seem to be different.

"No, you didn't get it wrong." Richard nodded for granted, "You know how I feel again, don't you? I'm really jealous now."

After finishing speaking, Richard and Lu Li both laughed, "However, here, I still have to represent the branch office, and sincerely thank you. I am really grateful. The two thieves were finally caught. This is a good thing, it's a big deal Good thing."

"I'm glad I was able to help you." Lu Li accepted his thanks with a smile, "Do you need me to go to the police station to take notes?"

"No, no need." Richard shook his head, "Just now Buck has asked about the ins and outs of the whole matter, hasn't he? That's enough. Later in the investigation process, if there are still questions, we will contact you again of."

After Buck sent the two of them to the police car, Richard left. They still had a lot of things to do tonight, and it was a sleepless night.

Watching the red and blue staggered police cars honking and gradually leaving, Cole and the others finally came to their senses, "Fourteen, what happened just now?" It was Cole who asked the question.

But before Lu Li could answer, the others began to discuss each other, "Is that a thief?", "They actually hid in the ranch", "Why didn't they run away? Inside", "What are they doing hiding in there", "What the hell is going on with them, isn't it the Detective Club"...

Even without Lu Li's participation, they had a great discussion.

It took a while before they remembered that the real master was standing beside him, so why should they guess?Their gazes fell on Lu Li's body, and their burning eyes seemed to say, if Lu Li doesn't give an answer tonight, then don't want to sleep.

It was only then that Lu Li realized that he had missed the opportunity to escape and should have sneaked away just now.What should we do now?He rolled his eyes for a while, pointed in the direction of the warehouse, and said with an excuse, "I'll go to the warehouse to check first to see if the cheese is okay..."

But before the words were finished, everyone shouted in unison, "Tell the story first, tell the story first!"

It seemed that they didn't buy it at all. Lu Li couldn't help but smile, and could only say, "I was about to go to bed, and then I saw that the light in the wine cellar was still on..."

He told the story of tonight. He originally planned to keep it as concise as possible, but everyone was extremely excited and asked all the details of tonight, especially the scene where Lu Li confronted the two thieves with a rifle. The scene was really incomparable. lively.

After finishing speaking, everyone started chatting, not only discussing the two thieves, but also discussing the treasure hunt this time. Randy once again put forward the theory that "the treasure is in the Yunding Ranch". This time, Brandon There is no more complaints, everyone thinks that this is very possible, otherwise the two thieves would not have stayed here for a whole night.

In order to make the story more plausible, everyone put forward their own guesses, and the heat was in full swing.In a trance, tonight's party was interrupted for a while, and then resumed again. Everyone seemed to be full of energy, and the strong night did not affect their enthusiasm at all.

Unknowingly, Lu Li, the client, became more at ease. He went to the underground warehouse and checked the condition of the cheese - two pieces of cheese were smashed into three or four pieces. It seems that the two thieves There is still some confusion here.

Fortunately, the situation could have been much worse, but it didn't.

After packing up the damaged cheese and the broken baskets, and looking at the warehouse that had regained its tranquility, Lu Li went back to the main house and forcibly drove away the group of "teenagers" who had exploded with adventurous spirit. After calming down, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep, announcing that the farce had finally come to an end.

However, the Yunding Ranch is still not peaceful-the cowboys’ villas are still brightly lit, and it seems that it should be a sleepless night.

To be precise, the ranch will not be peaceful for a long time to come.This is the first major event in New Braunfels in the past two years, and it is estimated that there will be vigorous discussions in the next period of time.

Three days later, Richard came to the door again and thanked Lu Li solemnly.

After a long period of questioning, the two thieves finally pleaded guilty and found the corresponding stolen goods in the hotel where they lived. This case finally came to a successful conclusion.

Of course, if it weren't for Lu Li's vigilance, the two thieves would probably get away with it.

Originally, they thought that the matter would end here, but they didn't expect that after discussion, the town unanimously passed a resolution and decided to award Lu Li a pennant in recognition of Lu Li's heroic behavior.

This was really beyond Lu Li's expectations, and he didn't see the way things were going at all.

But when you think about it, it’s not surprising that, given the rarity and severity of the case, it’s not only the first case in New Braunfels in the past two years—a case that needs to go to trial; This is the first serial crime in the town in the past five years, and almost the whole town is paying attention to the development and direction of this incident.

Lu Li's key role was naturally magnified.Not only did he catch the thief, but he stopped the situation from getting worse, which is definitely commendable.

It's no surprise that pennants are awarded.

This is a good thing.It can be seen that Lu Li is integrating into life in Dezhou in this special way, and the residents of the town open their hearts and formally accept Lu Li's arrival.

Although before this, Lu Li never felt too intense rejection, but his scope of activities was only limited to the vicinity of Yunding Ranch, and he established a small social circle centered on Lily, Ronald and others. lock up.But now, the situation is completely different.

Ten days after the incident, Lu Li went to the supermarket in the town to do some shopping. He could see countless friendly eyes in the parking lot. Everyone stepped forward to say hello warmly. This is still a trivial matter.After that, in the supermarket, Lu Li almost became a celebrity in the town. People surrounded him and expressed their closeness enthusiastically.

Not only that, after Lu Li finished shopping in the supermarket, the manager on duty of the supermarket came out in person, not only gave Lu Li an employee discount, but also helped Lu Li move his things to the parking lot.Such treatment really made Lu Li a little flattered.

Who would have thought of such a turning point?

However, not all of this incident was a good one.Inadvertently, when Lu Li and Song Lingyi were in the video, Randy slipped his tongue and mentioned that Lu Li was carrying a gun and had a confrontation with the thief. Now the family was in a panic, and even Lu Huaijin gave him a warning.

It was one thing to shoot a gun at a shooting range before, but it is another thing to actually use a gun in real life. Everyone's first thought is "dangerous".

Lu Li knew that the result would be like this, so he didn't intend to let his family know from the beginning. When his parents were here, he didn't buy a gun at the shooting range. It is synonymous with violence.This is still the case even though Lu Huaijin and Song Lingyi have lived here in Dezhou for nearly three months.

Unexpectedly, Randy's carelessness caused Lu Li to fall into dire straits.

Fortunately, Song Lingyi knew the priority of the matter and didn't tell Lu Li's grandmother, otherwise Lu Li would have had a hard time during this period.

However, for the next period of time, Randy suffered a lot. Lu Li went all out and gave Randy a good lesson.However, Lu Li said, "I am a peace lover and I reject violence, so we must solve the problem calmly."

So, Lu Li made delicious food every day, but the only condition was that Randy couldn't eat it. This almost drove Randy crazy - Lu Li even spared an afternoon to make steamed buns!

The famous Xiao Long Bao.

But Randy can only watch but not eat, and Lu Li said that if someone releases water, or if Randy succeeds in stealing food and is found out, then he will not do it.Now, everyone stood on Lu Li's side, gloating at Randy's misfortune, making life worse than death.

"Jesus Christ, you might as well just use violence!" Randy roared angrily.

Until one day, when Lu Li didn't pay attention, Randy grabbed the steamed bun that had just come out of the cage, stuffed it directly into his mouth, and then he refused to open his mouth, being scalded to death.

In the end, Randy's mouth was burned, and he could only eat liquid food for the next day, which was even more miserable.But Randy had no regrets, and proudly said, "I finally got it!" Sure enough, foodies were angels with broken wings in their previous lives, and when they fell, they landed on their faces.

After a period of time, the bustling and bustling life of the ranch has endless excitement every day. The accidental thief broke in did not have an essential impact on their lives; at the same time, Tony's work has also entered the final stage , Morgan, Benjamin and others have finished their part-time jobs, left Texas, and returned to California.

Because, the first batch of wine at Yunding Ranch has been brewed!
