After clearing his mind, Locke didn't think about it anymore. Instead, he turned on his cell phone. As expected, there were several messages and missed calls.

In addition to Marianne's phone call, Jennifer Gray actually also called him.

Locke did not rush to call back, but checked the WhatsApp messages first.

Marianne's message mainly talked about the message she had with Daisy Greenberg at noon today, with all kinds of compliments and a warning to him to immediately cut off other messy relationships.

The last step was to order him to go home for breakfast tomorrow morning, and also mentioned that he would have dinner with Loew Hogwarts at noon tomorrow.

Looking at Marianne's message, Locke shook his head and laughed. He didn't know how Daisy Greenberg did it.

It can be seen that Marianne is very satisfied with Daisy Greenberg. I wonder how she will react if she knows that this woman has a dual personality.

When he was about to open Jennifer Gray's message, Locke discovered that both David Murphy and Katherine Murphy had sent him messages. He couldn't help but feel curious, so he clicked on David's message first.

David told him that their four-person sea fishing team had agreed to let him join, and when he came back from vacation in Japan, he could go out to sea with them when he was free on weekends.

The old man also thoughtfully gave him a list of sea fishing gear and supplies, and asked him to just follow the list and buy it.

Locke opened Katherine Murphy's message again. He thought it was welcoming him to join the police detective bureau, but he didn't expect the woman to send a message that had no beginning or end.

"Locke, you owe me a favor. When you come back from Japan, remember to treat me to a big dinner..."

It's a bit baffling!

Thinking that the undercover operation was almost over, he first replied to Catherine Murphy, "David will kill me..."

Then he sent a message back to David Murphy, "Got it. I can't wait to finish my vacation and go to sea with you. When I come back, I'll treat you to a meal. Maybe you can take Catherine with you. I want to know more about the police. Detective Bureau matters..."

After replying to the messages from Murphy and his daughter, Locke casually read some messages from other people. They were all junk messages.

For example, Randy Casco asked him if he had ever visited a Japanese custom shop, what was the prostitute service in Japan, etc.

Tedis Martin asked him when he would hold a party, and also provided him with a new party theme for his reference...

Nathan Fillion asked him if he needed help with the modification of the balcony railings on the second floor...

Elsa Molly asked him seriously about the content of the police detective exam, and asked him if he could help her with training...

……

Locke ignored these guys, but there was one person whose message he had to reply to. It was from his cousin.

Alice Locke asked him about the Malibu villa, and sent several photos that Marianne had taken before, with all kinds of praise and exclamations, and finally asked her when she could visit.

Locke directly replied that he was currently on vacation in Japan and was not sure about the progress of the villa, so he asked her to ask Marianne directly.

Unexpectedly, Alice Locke didn't sleep. She responded to his message instantly and sighed about his vacation in Japan. She also asked him if he remembered what she said last time and asked him to go to Pepperdine University as soon as possible. .

Locke was a little confused, "What did you say?"

Alice Locke directly sent a photo. It was a group photo of Alice Locke and a sweet-looking white girl.

The girl has smooth blond hair, fair skin, clear eyes, a quiet and elegant temperament, a slender figure, a clean smile, and a Bible in her hand. She looks like a well-educated type.

She continued to write, "How about it? She's beautiful! Although her breasts are not big, she is definitely the type you like. I'm going to introduce her to you..."

Locke was speechless and replied: "I already have a girlfriend..."

Alice Locke sent a contemptuous expression, and then sent a series of messages over with astonishing speed.

"Jennifer Grey? Don't lie to yourself. Isn't that the kind of relationship you have?"

"I really hope you can feel true love for once, instead of being dominated by hormones..."

"Believe me, Diana can heal you. She majored in law and also majored in theology. I have never met such a smart and gentle woman..."

"If you weren't my cousin, I would never let a scum like you get to know her..."

"..."

Locke was speechless and replied: "It's not Jennifer Grey. I have a new girlfriend and I have officially introduced it to Marianne..."

Alice Locke was silent for several seconds and gave a middle finger in return.

"Scumbag!"

Locke ignored Alice Locke and opened Jennifer Gray's message, and was stunned for a moment.

Daisy, uh, Deborah Greenberg has been like that since she was a child, and she even killed people, this...

No wonder his instinct always felt that this woman was dangerous!

However, he doesn't seem to care too much!

Locke immediately called Jennifer Gray. The woman's tone was a little cold, "Just read the message. I don't mean anything else. I just want to share this information with you. Uh, I have surgery tomorrow morning, so that's it for now. …”

Listening to the beeping on the phone, Locke was a little helpless. Didn't he agree to be a sex partner?

Back then I took the initiative and you backed down. Now that I have found a girlfriend, you are getting emotional again...

……

The next morning, after Locke regained his true self, he put on a pair of black-rimmed glasses, a peaked cap, and a hoodie and went out for a run.

After arriving at MacArthur Park, I took an Uber back to Beverly Hills.

As soon as I got home, I found that the atmosphere was not right. Only Marianne and Li Bo were left at the dinner table, both of whom looked a little solemn.

Locke's heart skipped a beat, and he asked directly, regardless of greetings: "Whathappened? (What happened?)"

Marianne and Li Bo looked at each other, but neither answered him.

Locke raised his eyebrows and asked again: "Did something happen to the villa in Malibu?"

Marian let out a long breath and stared at Locke, "Jester called this morning and said that Chester Horton called him early in the morning and told him that he was going to let William Horton be fully responsible for the farm business. , proposed that Henry should replace William Horton as the sergeant of the Lebec livestock police..."

Locke was startled. As the chairman of the Animal Husbandry Association, Chester Horton had a large part of his authority coming from the Animal Husbandry Association police.

This is a group of legal armed forces, and there is no way he can suddenly give it up.

He asked, "Why? What trouble did they get into?"

Marianne did not answer him, but added: "I also received a call from Anna in the morning. She told me that Harry Thomas knew Mia Friedman, the president of the California Bar Association, and said that Mia Friedman Reedman mentioned to Harry Thomas that the number of female members among the Bar Association members is currently low, and he would like to nominate new female members. If I am interested..."

Locke suddenly realized, his expression condensed, this was their price.

Li Bo asked: "Locke, what is going on?"

Marianne then said: "Anna asked me to ask you directly..."

Locke did not answer them, but fell into silence, and the balance in his heart still tilted.

Damn, the chips given are so tempting!
