I love you, I won't kill you

After a delightful Chinese family dinner, Julie plans to drive back to her apartment in San Pedro.In response, Evelyn called her and Joanna to her room.

"Please, aren't you planning to go to the Rose Bowl at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning?" Evelyn asked, leaning against the computer desk.

"Hmm, in this way, we can go shopping for three hours longer than the others." Julie nodded.

"Normally, we'd have to drive 45 minutes to get back. But now, honey, we're going to have to drive 50 minutes at night. Are you sure you want to do this?" Joanna asked, glancing at her .

"Why not? As far as I remember, Amanda drove me overnight from Florida to Ventura, California."

"Come on, Julie, not everyone is as scared of everything as she is."

"Aren't you afraid of anything? Well, I think you will say that Amanda must be crazy, right?" Julie asked with a change of expression.

"Hey, I didn't think so. It's just..." Joanna said.

"Come on, ladies, what the hell are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word?" Evelyn called.

"Excuse me, Evelyn. Um, you want us to stay at your place tonight?" Julie said.

"Yeah, it's only a 9-minute drive from my parents' house to the Rose Bowl. Also, I've heard that some parts of Los Angeles are not safe at night..."

Joanna smiled lightly, and sat on the edge of the bed swinging her legs back and forth, "Well, you're worried that when Julie goes back, if she's unlucky, she'll encounter some kind of pervert or stalker?"

Evelyn gave her a strange look, "Yes, of course I'm worried about her safety. Hey, you know, Julie is our best friend."

Julie shook her head. "Okay, Joanna, stop talking. Uh, I agree, Evelyn."

"That's great, I'll go and talk to my daddy and mommy. Well, if you need anything else, let's go to the 7-11 convenience store ahead." Evelyn said happily.

"Okay. Well, let's take a stroll around Pasadena at night." Joanna said.

At around 9:40 p.m., the three returned from shopping at a 7-Eleven convenience store three blocks away.When Julie walked to the back of her SUV, she smiled and said to Evelyn, "Uh, Evelyn, I forgot something in the car. You go back first."

Joanna glanced at Evelyn who was walking down the porch, and said, "You're still worried about staying only for one night?"

Julie opened the rear trunk door of the car and pulled open a black canvas gun bag. "It's better to be careful. Although Detective Arias warned the guy, until now LAPD still has no evidence to prosecute him."

"What if there is no evidence that he followed you?"

"I don't know. Perhaps, I should find a chance to talk to him."

"Or, get rid of his delusional obsession with you from other aspects." Joanna said while sitting on the floor of the trunk.

"What do you mean?" Julie asked when she took out a 1.06-meter-long Remington M870 shotgun without ammunition from the gun bag.

"Damn! You really want to take this big guy to Evelyn's parents' house?"

"Come on, this is the most common home defense shotgun. You know what? I beat that sexual predator's heart out with this gun."

"Okay, I see. Well, Julie, can I get a smaller guy for just one night?"

Julie put down the shotgun and thought for a while, "No problem."

Joanna watched as she walked to the front cab, opened the glove box under the passenger seat and took out a pistol, "God! I think you are really crazy."

Returning to the rear of the car with a small, lightweight Glock G23 pistol suitable for concealed use, Julie asked when she took out a box of pistol bullets from the canvas pouch, "Well, what did you just say? ...?"

"Oh, I'd say this guy stalks you and develops a delusional obsession with you. How would you feel if you transferred this obsession to someone else?"

"No, it would make me feel very uncomfortable and uncomfortable."

"Well, I have nothing against you going to him and talking about it. But, I won't let you go alone."

Julie was pressing bullets into the pistol magazine with a capacity of 13 rounds, and looked up at the other party seriously, "Thank you, Joanna. Actually, I really like you. It's just..."

Joanna moved her upper body closer and hugged her tightly, "Thank you. If one day you don't love Amanda anymore, you must tell me. Okay?"

"Fuck you, bitch."

"You too, bitch."

The next day, at 7:11 a.m. on July 5, Evelyn was awakened by her mother's knock on the door before her eyes were opened.He groped out of bed with his eyes closed, walked to the door and opened the door, "Mommy, what's the matter?"

"Don't you want to go to the flea market with your friends? Get up, your two American friends have finished washing." Mother chattered in Chinese.

"Ah?! Why didn't you call me earlier?" Evelyn yelled as she ran towards the bathroom.

"A Lin, put on some clothes before going." The mother called her daughter by her nickname.

"No time!" Evelyn, wearing only a camisole and boxer shorts, rushed into the bathroom.

In less than 5 minutes, things like brushing teeth, washing face, combing hair and sitting on the toilet are "completed in one go".At the right moment, Evelyn knocked on the door of the guest room with her curly brown hair combed out, "Hey, guys, can I come in?"

"Please come in."

"Hey, good morning, guys."

"Hey, good morning, young lady. I think you'd better hurry, we're leaving for the Rose Bowl," Julie said.

"No problem." After Evelyn finished speaking, she suddenly saw a black metal object under Julie's pillow when she turned around.

Julie seemed to have noticed her eyes, and quickly covered the exposed pistol grip with a pillow, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"

Evelyn quickly exited the guest room, "It's okay, it's okay."

At 5:50, the three said goodbye to Evelyn's parents and walked out of the house.After glancing at her mother who was standing on the porch to see her off, Evelyn quickly got into her car without asking Julie any questions she wanted to ask.

Ten minutes later, the three drove their own cars to the parking lot of the Rose Bowl Stadium west of Pasadena.Despite Julie's suggestion to visit the flea market at first light in the morning, she finds herself a bit late.

The official name of the Rose Bowl Flea Market is the Rose Bowl Flea Market.As the No. 1 top ten flea market in the world, the Rose Bowl Flea Market is in the eyes of people who love to find second-hand goods all over the world.

The entire stadium can accommodate 2000 hawkers, and they are classified into four areas.Hawkers sell both second-hand goods and novelty items and various daily necessities, and the quality of the goods is not bad.

Anything you can think of can be bought here.Even if it is something you never dreamed of, you can still buy it here.Of course, if you want to buy all the things you like, you have to prepare US dollar cash.Because this very famous flea market in Southern California does not accept credit card payment.

After the three parked their cars, they hurriedly walked towards the ticket office at the gate of the market.Evelyn asked Julie next to her, "Do you think we can get in early for only $10?"

Julie smiled, "Of course. However, we have to queue behind those people." After speaking, she pointed to the long queue for buying tickets.

"Okay, $15. God, $15 gets you 5 big boxes of Haagen-Dazs ice cream, half a tank of gas, a movie for one with popcorn and Coke, McDonald's for two, fuck me You can have a dinner at a Chinese restaurant near your parents’ home, you can order three dishes and one meal for three people, and you can also buy 10 bottles of 330ml Heineken beer...” Evelyn almost put everything she could think of The place where you can spend $15 has been said all over again.

"Hey, little girl, with that money you can go to Walmart and buy mangoes, apples, bananas, lettuce, yogurt, cereal, ketchup, all these things." Joanna also spoke very fast, too fast to be heard What is she saying.

"Really? Damn, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Because, it's going to cost $20 to buy all these goodies."

The conversation between the two almost made Julie laugh.Quickly stopped these two guys, "Okay, ladies, pay the bill quickly."

Joanna looked at Evelyn jokingly, and whispered in her ear, "How much cash did you bring?"
