Chapter 1 Family
Early morning, Los Angeles.
"Buzz~" The alarm on the cell phone beside the bed rang.
A young man with a bandage on his head slowly woke up. He had black eyes, black hair, and a deep Western outline.
He was originally a Chinese criminal policeman, and it has been half a month since he time traveled, and it still feels like a dream every time he wakes up.
Now his name is Luke Lee, and he is a detective with the Los Angeles Police Department.
My father is Chinese.
The mother is white.
Although he is still a policeman and has Chinese ancestry, he is very uncomfortable with his current status.
The original owner of the body has a flamboyant personality, behaves erratically, and his joy and anger all depend on his heart.
On the surface he looks cool, but in private he is called a bastard.
To put it bluntly, he has low emotional intelligence, and he offends many people for this reason.
It's completely different from his behavior in his previous life, which makes him very passive now.
What makes him even more depressed is that the relationship between the original owner and his family is not good, and now he has to live in his parents' house, which is an embarrassing situation.
However, time travel is not without its benefits. He is younger and stronger now.
The projection on the window is not very clear, and the outline of muscles can be faintly seen.
Overall, it's not bad to live again...
"Jack, go downstairs for dinner.
If you miss the school bus again today, don’t ask me to drive you!”
A woman's voice came from downstairs, it was his current mother Linda.
Jack is his younger brother, a fat thirteen-year-old boy - not cute at all.
This is a wooden two-story villa. The first floor is the living room, kitchen and parents' master bedroom.
The second floor is the bathroom, study and bedrooms for the two brothers.
At this time, March has just entered, and the temperature in Los Angeles is between 10° and 20°, which is very comfortable.
Wearing a thickened blue shirt and gray jeans, he walked out of the bedroom and turned into the adjacent bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth.
After washing up, Luke was ready to go downstairs.
The "squeaking" sound of your feet stepping on the wooden white stair boards is like a reminder.
To the right of the stairs is the living room, and to the left is the open kitchen.
A white woman wearing a Hello Kitty apron works in the kitchen.
Luke forced a smile and said, "Hi, mom, good morning."
Linda didn't even raise her eyelids, "No, I'm not good at all.
Last night you were dragging your suitcase home with a bandage on your head, and you were bound to be gossiped about by your neighbors again."
Luke said helplessly, "I don't want to be like this, but Lina and I broke up... I need to stay here for a while."
Linda put down the shovel, "I said before not to be with that woman. She saw that her elders didn't even have basic respect, and this kind of girl was not worth dating.
And you?
You didn’t take my words to heart at all.”
Luke nodded, "She is indeed not a good partner. I dumped her."
"You were dumped, right?" Linda looked like I had known her for a long time.
Luke smiled and said nothing more.
Linda was a little surprised. According to the personality of her eldest son, he would not give in on this issue. He would definitely argue, quarrel, and break up on bad terms.
She was not used to it being like this.
This kid... is a little different today?
Mature?
Luke walked to the entrance, picked up the black helmet, and said, "I'm going to work."
"Creak..."
Coming down the stairs, a boy of thirteen or fourteen rubbed his eyes with his fat white hands, "Mom, I'm still growing, can't you let me sleep a little longer?"
Linda shrugged, "You have grown fat enough. What you need now is exercise."
Luke drew his right hand straight from his right temple to the front, "Isn't this a cute little brother? How are you doing recently?"
The little fat man rolled his eyes, "No, when I think of the New Year's money that was defrauded, I have the urge to transform into the Hulk."
Luke will stay here for a while. If he wants to have a good relationship with his family, he can't pretend not to hear.
He rolled up his sleeves and said, "Brother, who defrauded you of your New Year's money, tell me?"
The little fat man looked at Luke expressionlessly, as if to say, "You continue to act."
Luke has merged most of the original owner's memories, but some details are unclear.
Seeing the other party's expression, he also realized that there might be a problem, and carefully recalled the memory of the original owner...
I suddenly felt embarrassed.
"Um... just think that the new year's money was borrowed from me, and I will pay it back to you as soon as possible, with interest calculated."
Luke looked down at his watch, "I'm going to be late, Bye."
Grab your leather gloves and escape under the expectant eyes of your family.
First attempt to improve relationship with family.
fail.
"boom!"
The door is closed.
The little fat man took out a carton of milk from the refrigerator and poured it into a glass. "Mom, did I hear wrong just now? He actually took the initiative to pay back the money?"
Linda put the omelette on the plate and said, "He is indeed a little unusual today, so don't hold out too much hope."
"I see."
The little fat man sighed softly, "Is this guy really my brother?"
"Although I don't want to admit it, that's the truth."
The little fat man showed a mature expression that did not suit his age, "Yeah, this is the saddest thing."
Linda pointed the shovel at the little fat man, "Jack, put your mind in the right place. If you can't get above B this time, your game console will wait for another life."
…
Luke's family lives in a middle-class community with a good environment.
Their house is relatively small in the community, with a yard of only 20 to 30 square meters. There is a green lawn to the east, a garage to the west, and a cement floor in front of the garage.
A 'muscular' black motorcycle was parked there, a 2021 Harley Fatboy.
Schwarzenegger drove the Fat Boy Harley in the movie "Terminator II".
Luke took off the bandage on his head. It had no effect at all.
Wear a helmet, get on the motorcycle, shift into first gear, and gently twist the accelerator to minimize the roar of the motorcycle.
He doesn't want to live on the street.
The motorcycle slowly drove onto the community road. The farther away from home, the higher the gear and the faster the speed.
"Woooo..."
The feeling of driving a Harley is stable!
The body is heavy and the seat is low, making it more like driving than riding.
The scenery along the highway in Los Angeles is very beautiful, with the vast expanse of blue Pacific Ocean on one side and steep cliffs and mountains on the other side. Many people come here specially for self-driving tours.
Of course, no matter how beautiful the highway is, it will encounter the same problem, traffic jams.
Luke had no choice but to park and wait.
There was a red convertible parked nearby, and a brown-haired woman sitting in the cab was touching up her makeup in front of the mirror.
The woman is very beautiful, wearing a burgundy short shirt, and her plump bust attracts many people's attention.
Luke took off his helmet and waved, "Hi, beauty, excuse me."
The brown-haired woman pursed her red lips, glanced at Luke, and said calmly, "I already have a boyfriend."
Luke smiled and said, "Okay, I just want to tell you that the tire is flat."
The brown-haired woman put down her lipstick and looked down. The front tire was flat.
She looked at Luke again and forced a smile, "Sir, can you change it for me? There is a spare tire in the car."
At this time, the front was open to traffic.
"I'm in a hurry, so I'll find your boyfriend instead."
