New Century Basketball Frenzy

Chapter 31 Lucy's Bloody Lips Invitation

"Is the game fun?"

In the back seat, besides Escalio, there was a man with two scars on his face.I saw him smoking a cigar and asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, father." Escal responded blankly.

"Meet someone interesting?"

"No." Just after Escalio finished speaking, his pupils trembled slightly, as if he thought of someone again...

The man looked at him thoughtfully, and didn't ask any more questions.

Although the three of Zhang Yi made it to the final, Wally and Robert's mood dropped to freezing point because of the appearance of Escalio.

Before returning to school, Grant suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Congratulations on reaching the finals."

Grant congratulated them with a strong smile, "Be careful of the three monsters from Team Escario."

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing dozens of terrifying blood marks.

"Look at their masterpieces. I'm going back. The final is three days away?"

Robert nodded.

"Unfortunately I couldn't be there to see it."

Grant turned around and waved his hands, but stopped before walking far.

"Robert, you fucking must beat them, not for my revenge, but for basketball! Let those monsters who don't understand basketball go back to hell!"

Grant choked up and roared.

Robert's originally dazed eyes suddenly became firm.

His shoulders trembled violently, but it wasn't because of fear, but because of the man's adrenaline that made him extremely eager to fight Escariot now!
Fight for basketball!

Zhang Yi also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, because he knew that his brother had finally ignited his fighting spirit.

While jogging at night, Lucy's figure suddenly appeared in Zhang Yi's mind.

He is very clear that he likes Ye Qing and admires Monica, but what is his feeling for Lucy?
It is still a difficult problem for Zhang Yi.

When he returned to the dormitory after running 2000 meters, he found an envelope on his bed...

The window in the room was still open, Zhang Yi picked up the envelope nervously.

There was only a red lip print on it, and he noticed the unusual color and smell of that lip print...

This is blood? !
Thinking of this, he immediately opened the envelope, and inside was an invitation that only marked the time and place.

Tomorrow night, 7:[-], Juliet's!
It was Juliet's restaurant again, and the first person Zhang Yi thought of was Lucy, but why did she secretly send this.

And what concerned him the most was the bloody lip print.

The next day, I saw Wally and others.

At the breakfast table, Zhang Yi asked, "Which one of you knows about invitations with bloody lips?"

Robert immediately put down the fork, and looked at the oriental boy with a puzzled expression, "Why do you ask this?"

"It's okay, I saw it in the movie, I'm a little curious."

Zhang Yi thought about it and still didn't tell the truth.

Hearing this, Robert's expression relaxed a little, "I thought you were in some trouble."

"Blood lips invitations are a practice of several old-school LA gangsters who throw death parties for members who have made blunders."

"Whose lip print on the envelope will evaporate after the banquet!"

Zhang Yi's back felt a little chilly, because he had a strong feeling that the owner of that lip print was Lucy...

"Are you kidding me?"

"My uncle is a member of one of the gangs. This is what he told me. It may be embellished, but it probably means this."

Robert continued while eating.

"When my uncle accidentally shot a brother's head, he immediately hid under his name. My father was afraid of receiving such an invitation."

Zhang Yi listened carefully, his forehead covered with tiny beads of sweat.

"Seriously, this is a death notice. The invitation will be sent to the next of kin of the prisoner. The recipient must be present, otherwise they will be thrown into the sea and fed to the sharks."

Everyone was ready to get up after breakfast, but Zhang Yi's thoughtful appearance made them a little worried.

"Yi, are you really not in trouble?"

Robert asked seriously.

Zhang Yi shook his head, forced a smile and said, "It's okay."

Lucy will be all right, he thought to himself.

Although that woman's eccentricity is really hateful, but to be honest, Zhang Yi doesn't hate her...

After a day of training, Zhang Yi received a call to give birth in the afternoon.

"Brother Yi, today's opponent is really strong."

"You say that every time... By the way, I have something to do tonight, so let's postpone the game first."

"It's not because of women."

Shengzi said suddenly with a flash of inspiration.

"It's true, but it's not because of any good things." Zhang Yi said with a sigh.

Shengzi immediately said in a deep voice, "Brother Yi, even though Los Angeles is a world of flowers, don't forget, Ye Qing is still waiting for you."

"And I heard that she submitted an exchange student application to the school, but it can only be approved by the sophomore at the earliest."

"You don't need to remind me." Zhang Yi replied seriously.

"It's just a little trouble, and it will probably be fine after tonight."

Hearing his words, Shengzi also became worried.

It was the first time he heard Zhang Yi's embarrassing tone on the phone.

"Let's do this first, then talk." Zhang Yi finished talking and hung up the phone.

It is better to believe that there is something in the legend than to believe that there is nothing.

As it gets darker, the underworld of Los Angeles is both heaven and hell.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Zhang Yi arrived at Juliet's restaurant on time.

Taking out the invitation card, the waiter at the door immediately led him in respectfully.

In 2050, logs have long been a rare material, but the main body of the restaurant is a fir tree with a diameter of dozens of arms!

Needless to say, the tables and chairs, and the tableware are all pure wood.

The most luxurious thing is that a complete Huanglong tree was made into a fountain.

If Zhang Yi is a nature protector, then he must have thrown an old punch in the face of the owner of this restaurant.

It's a pity that people who protect nature have always been poor, and it is impossible to enter this restaurant.

With this invitation, Zhang Yi was led into the deepest private room on the top floor.

A door with a sculpture of Satan coming on the left and the death of Jesus on the right...

When two waiters forcefully opened the door.

Zhang Yi walked into the room and noticed that Lucy's adoptive father Brant had arrived.

"Hey, is this the man little Lucy likes?"

Suddenly, an uncle with thick eyebrows and thick lips, with a straight belly, walked towards Zhang Yi waving his hands.

At this time, Brandt also stood up and waved to him.

Zhang Yi was a little surprised, because from their performance, it seemed that he was invited as Lucy's boyfriend.

In addition to these two, there were two men and a woman whose face was covered with a veil.

Surrounded by the enthusiasm of this strange man, Zhang Yi sat in a corner with no one around.

Lucy hasn't arrived yet, but if the truth is what Robert said, then everyone here is Lucy's close relatives.

Although it is unlikely, Zhang Yi hopes that Lucy will not appear, because only in this way can she survive...

The door opened again, Zhang Yi looked back, and saw two big men in black pushing Lucy into the room forcefully.

She stepped on her long skirt and lost her balance for a moment. A man suddenly appeared in front of her eyes and held her in his arms.

It was Zhang Yi who was sitting by the side!

"What's going on?" Zhang Yi whispered in Lucy's ear,

Complex emotions flashed in Lucy's eyes, "Never speak."

Just after saying this, the two men in black picked her up again and walked towards the man in the middle of the room.

When she turned her head, her eyes changed from weak to decisive. Zhang Yi didn't know that this was a look of resignation.

Zhang Yi sat down honestly.

Because he noticed that the man who had closed his eyes and meditated was staring at him. The deep killing intent in his eyes did not appear when his hands were stained with the blood of one or two people...

After that, a dozen or so people came in one after another, and the original big room became a little crowded for a while.
