Chapter 88 Upgrading from a slingshot to a cannon

Edwin Hill asked as he cut his steak.

"Ethan, you've been making quite a stir in Lano. The gangs have even started a large-scale shootout. The police are hoping they suffer heavy losses so the smuggling routes will quiet down for a while. The most important thing is, can you stabilize the situation in Lano?"

Upon hearing this question, Lee Esen seemed to grasp a clue to the invitation.

"It can still stabilize the situation. It would be even better if the higher-ups approved some equipment for me."

"They won't approve any of the equipment you want."

"M1117 armored vehicle."

Edwin stopped eating, his expression almost breaking down.

"That's quite an idea. Listen to me, just managing to keep things stable would be a huge achievement. I..."

'

Before Edwin could finish speaking, Audrey interrupted again.

"You men only talk about these kinds of things, Ethan. Do you even have a girlfriend?"

Lee Esen's expression froze.

"no."

This wasn't a lie. It should be said that he hadn't had a girlfriend for almost three years after transmigrating. Even with Malena, they were just bed partners who needed each other, and there really wasn't much affection between them.

Audrey laughed.

"Young people don't need to rush to find a partner. My Evelyn is the same. She studied very hard in school but never even tried dating. She wanted to inherit the family business, but unfortunately, she's not very bright, so she could only choose to become a policeman. Her second uncle used to be a policeman representing the family, but unfortunately, he died in the line of duty. The family needed another policeman, so Evelyn had to go. This girl didn't want to do clerical work; she insisted on doing frontline work."

Upon hearing this, Li Yisen looked at the policewoman, who kept her head down and remained silent.

At this point, Audrey earnestly pleaded again.

"Ethan, please keep an eye on Evelyn, okay?"

At the request of this wealthy woman in her forties, Lee Ethan finally nodded. Of course, there was no problem with working together again, but unfortunately, they might not be able to partner up again in the future.

After a satisfying meal, Edwin Hill had a private chat with Ethan Lee.

It was 10 o'clock quickly, and Lee Ethan said goodbye, while Evelyn was pushed by her mother to see them off.

"Quickly see your friend off."

"Mother, there are housekeepers and servants."

Audrey glared fiercely at her daughter.

"You don't have to go, but you can clear the table and wash the dirty dishes. It's your choice."

Evelyn eventually slunk away.

"Ethan, I've come to see you off."

The two walked in the yard. Evelyn's expression was hesitant. She wanted to tell the real reason for today, but her little foot tripped over something and she fell into Ethan's arms.

"6

'

Their eyes met, and the atmosphere became ambiguous.

"Thanks."

Looking at that shy, pretty face, Li Yisen couldn't help but say something.

"Just verbally?"

As the man's gaze grew increasingly intense and his face drew closer, Evelyn couldn't help but close her eyes, her heart pounding faster.

Even though we haven't seen each other for a month, we feel even more... different than when we were together every day.

Ethan was drawn to this inviting scene, looking down at Evelyn as she breathed heavily with nervousness, her full breasts undulating even more magnificent.

Their faces drew closer and closer until they were touching.

As the card was knocked on and the money was snatched away, Evelyn's hands involuntarily clenched.

The two were interrupted by a clear female voice.

"elder sister."

Evelyn hurriedly pushed the man away, wiped her mouth and straightened her skirt, which he had been pinching.

"What is it?"

"It's about to begin."

"Oh, I'll be there soon."

Lee Ethan looked at the girl and could tell that Diana was hostile towards him. After all, the two had barely exchanged a few words the whole time, which was strange, since he hadn't offended the girl at all.

Evelyn blushed slightly as she spoke.

"It was just a misunderstanding. I won't see you off any further."

"6

'

As the one who took the initiative, Li Yisen had nothing to say. Did he care about Evelyn? Yes, but whether he liked her was uncertain. After all, he had taught her for four months, so there must have been some feelings involved.

As night fell, Edwin and his wife were chatting.

"Audrey, your conversation today is quite deliberate."

"I think it's fine. As long as Evelyn likes it, that's all that matters. Have you ever heard your daughter constantly talk about one man from childhood to adulthood?"

Edwin Hill sighed.

"You're always like this."

"Anyway, Evelyn will be working with Ethan from now on, so we'll see if they're compatible later."

"This is the only way."

The main reason they invited Ethan over tonight was to pave the way for their daughter, Evelyn, who will be transferred to Lano tomorrow to help stabilize the situation—a sort of prestige boost.

As a partner of the California Police Department, Edwin had already learned that the department's leadership was gradually shifting its focus to the desert, which is why he took the opportunity to send his daughter there.

The only difficulty was safety, which is why Edwin Hill wanted to talk to Ethan Lee, hoping that the other party would protect his daughter.

As for his wife's behavior, he could understand it; she was a person who dared to love and hate.

Back in college, his wife, who was in the boxing club, took a liking to him at first sight. She then launched a series of fierce attacks and successfully won him over, such as pinning him against the wall. Keep in mind that the Hill family had not yet fully risen to prominence at that time, and Audrey was marrying down.

As Edwin reminisced about the past, he saw Audrey crawl to his side, her face flushed, and the view beneath her collar incredibly alluring.

"Honey."

Edwin's expression changed slightly; he felt his kidneys starting to hurt.

"Honey, how about in a couple of days?"

"no."

The impact of his well-trained buttocks caused Edwin Hill to scream in pain.

My back.

The next day at noon, Li Yisen looked at the police officers sent down from above speechlessly, among whom the blonde policewoman standing at the front was the most irritating.

Evelyn.

"Ethan, I'm here."

Li Yisen rubbed his temples in the curiosity of the other three. This explained it all. No wonder they chatted with him last night; it turned out they had brought Evelyn in.

"Don't call me by my name during work hours, call me station manager."

"Yes, senior."

Meeting those bright eyes, Li Yisen ultimately ignored the other person's form of address. After all, it wasn't the first time, and acquaintances should naturally have some privileges.

The arrival of four police officers was unexpected. Now the police station has a total of seven people, double the number from a month ago. They are all between 20 and 40 years old. It seems that gang warfare makes personnel transfers much easier.

Most importantly, there was the big guy in the back. A four-wheeled armored vehicle slowly came to a stop. It was the M1117 armored safety vehicle.

The nearly 12-ton behemoth has had its turret and all weapons removed; its means of attack is the firing port inside the vehicle.

Top hatch, side firing ports.

This thing is practically a mobile fortress; even 12mm armor-piercing rounds can't penetrate it. Only its weak points can be penetrated.

In addition to the armored vehicle, there were three sets of SWAT equipment and a Ford police interceptor (enhanced B-level bulletproof version). Lee Ethan suspected that Evelyn's father had pulled strings behind the scenes.

After all, this car has B-level defense; the body can withstand rifle bullets, and the bulletproof windows can withstand submachine guns.

Evelyn was encouraging herself at that moment.

"Father, I will not let you down."

Without any hesitation, Li Yisen took out a list and handed it to all the police officers.

"This group consists of members of the Loki Society. Keep a close eye on them during patrols; be careful, they may be armed."

"Edward, Brandon, you two are in charge of driving the M1117 armored vehicle."

"Yes."

After a month of cooperation, Lee Ethan naturally treated the two as trusted confidants. Brandon was loyal enough, Edward, a former soldier and policeman, was reliable enough, and as for Evelyn, that silly girl, she naturally had to follow him.
