"Your partner, William!"

"Why invite him?"

"Because he is your partner! Mills! You need to have a good relationship with your colleagues. I hope that when you are at work, someone can take care of you on my behalf! Is this reason enough?" Tracy didn't even leave the kitchen.

The reasons are stated in it.

The most important reason why Tracey wanted to stay with Mills was Mills' temper. He was kind and had a sense of justice. But his temper was too irritable, and he always had bad relationships because of work matters and at the same time. For example, before

In Springfield City, because of a case, he not only beat up his colleagues, but also scolded his boss. If it weren't for his outstanding professional ability, he would have been kicked out of the police station long ago, but even so,

He also spent three years on the bench in the police station.

It wasn't until one of his comrades learned about his situation and helped him move to Chicago that he got rid of his previous predicament.

"But, dear..."

"Listen, idiot, except for work, you have to listen to me in everything, as you promised!" Tracy knew that Mills was not very good at dealing with interpersonal relationships. That's why she made a three-part agreement with Mills, otherwise she would not agree.

Moved to Chicago.

"Okay, idiot." He never breaks his promise to her. This is the only thing he can give her.

…

Soon an old black man and an attractive workplace beauty knocked on the door of Mills' house.

There is no need to say any more words for small talk, you can't escape those words.

"Pepper, this is William, he is a colleague of Mills. William, this is Pepper, my college classmate and roommate!"

"College classmates? Aren't you sisters?"

William is very humorous, and he is not the type who pretends to be humorous. On the contrary, he has a rigorous style, is mature in his work, and speaks very seriously. But somehow, he has a natural sense of humor. This is not a surprising sentence,

Paired with his expression and tone, it's particularly interesting.

The two girls were amused, but Mills looked confused. He couldn't figure out what the point of the joke was.

Pepper is a very capable woman, she doesn't mince words or mince words, and she is very good at interpersonal communication. Without her and William's help, the dinner party, which was originally a little stiff because of Mills's temper, immediately became lively.

, Mills also temporarily put aside his prejudice against William.

"Did you grow up in Minnesota?" During the chat, Pepper suddenly learned that William grew up in Minnesota, which surprised her.

"Yeah. But I don't like it there. There, people's discrimination against black people is almost obvious. My parents fled from the south to the north, wanting to find a place to live without discrimination. But they obviously made the wrong choice.

It’s a place where I never felt friendly or warm in my childhood and youth. What? Are you from Minnesota too?”

"Oh...I'm sorry."

"It's okay, that was more than forty years ago. Tell me, why are you so surprised?"

"I'm not from Minnesota. I was born in New Haven, Connecticut, but I went through high school in Minnesota. My dad is in the insurance industry and was transferred to Minnesota that year because of work."

Connecticut is one of the safest and richest states in the United States, and it is also the region with the most prosperous insurance industry in the United States. It is not unusual for Pepper's father to be engaged in the insurance industry.

"Then where did you go to high school?"

"City of Wyndham."

"Well, it's a nice town, and the surrounding farms are beautiful."

…

The four people chatted more and more happily, and the atmosphere reached its highest point after a subway drove over.

Mills was deceived. Every time his real estate agent took him to see the house, he only let them stay for five minutes, so Mills had no idea that the subway would pass by them and make the house feel like an earthquake.

.

This made William laugh, and then the two girls laughed too. Mills saw everyone laughing and laughed too.

…

After dinner, the ladies continued chatting and the men talked about work.

But before they could chat for a while, a phone call came over.

Another murder occurred in their jurisdiction. The men had to go on an emergency mission.

The party could only end here. Mills planned to send Pepper to the hotel first, and then they went to the venue. But Pepper obviously didn't have enough time with his old classmates, so he asked Tracy, who was alone at home, to go to the hotel with him to meet a lady.

night of.

Mills wholeheartedly agrees with this!

He originally didn't want Tracy to stay at home.

So it became like, first send the two ladies to the hotel together, and then they go to the scene.

At the same time, Jin also called Kai and told him that another murder had occurred. Chicago is a big city, very big. There are murders here every day. Logically speaking, this kind of thing has nothing to do with Kai. But Jin was on the phone

Li told Kai that a word written in blood appeared at the scene of the murder.

‘greed’ greedy!

Kai got up immediately and planned to rush to the scene of the crime.

Just when he came to the door of the hotel, he happened to meet Mills and others sending Pepper and Tracy to the hotel.

Pepper booked the same hotel as Kai.

Mills and the others did not expect to meet Kai here. As soon as they saw Kai's appearance, they knew that Kai had also received the news. So after saying hello, they naturally talked about the case. Before that, Kai noticed that Mill

There were two women who looked exactly the same next to Si, but he didn't pay attention.

"Are you...Adam?" But he was recognized.

Kai turned back to look at the workplace beauty who spoke out. He was thinking, or rather he was looking through Adam's memory, trying to find her information.

"By the way, I remember Kay, you work near Wyndham City, right? Pepper once studied at Sam High School in Wyndham City." William felt that Pepper was a little embarrassed, so he immediately assisted. After all, Kai's expression showed that,

He didn't even remember who Pepper was.

Pepper, Sam's High School, these two keywords are enough for Kai to search Adam's memory.

"Pepper?"

Pepper's full name is eerotts, and eer means chili pepper. In addition, as a transfer student, in order to prevent being bullied, Pepper had a more fiery personality when he was in school, so he got this nickname.

Of course, this is not the point. There is a reason why Pepper was able to recognize ‘Adam’ whose appearance changed greatly in the first place. That is, Adam is Pepper’s first love!

Adam was a handsome young man back then, and he was also a top student, football quarterback, and the school's darling. Pepper was also a popular figure, so the two naturally came together. But Adam was a devout believer and had no regard for chastity.

It's relatively heavy, so it's really a pure first love between them, and they gave each other their first kiss.
