The next day, when it was getting dark, Ethan woke up Blake who was still sleeping.

After putting the things in the car, Blake confusedly sent an address to Ethan on his mobile phone, and then fell asleep in the passenger seat.

Come on, this field is exhausted, but fortunately my cattle can still bear it.

After Ethan smoked a refreshing cigarette, he got into his Dodge Challenger and drove to Blake's address.

Blake slept for more than an hour, and finally woke up. She stretched sleepily, and her peaks rose.

"Where are we?"

She glanced out the window. It was already bright, and desolate pastures were passing outside the car.

Ethan handed her a cup of coffee bought on the way, "We're almost at your uncle's house."

This is a desolate town, with houses in disrepair everywhere, and crows can be heard from time to time, making it look extremely desolate.

In comparison, Banshee Town is much more lively and prosperous.

After driving forward for a few minutes, I saw a red brick factory building wrapped with vines on the side of the road. The two-story factory building looked like it had been abandoned for many years.

The glass of the windows above has disappeared, a few crows are flapping their wings and pacing back and forth above, and the rotten wooden frames are swaying.

A gust of wind blew through, making a whimpering sound in the empty factory building.

Blake inadvertently turned her head, but she saw a little boy flashing past behind a window on the second floor, and she quickly patted Ethan's arm.

"Hey, look, there's a little boy in here."

Ethan looked back and found nothing, the crow was still hopping around.

He smiled and stretched out his hand to rub Blake's head and said:

"Are you still awake? How could there be a child in a place like this?"

Blake was a little confused, but she looked back again.

At this time, I only saw a few crows on the window flapping their wings and flying away.

Blake stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, and she also felt that she had just seen it wrong.

Some distance further, after turning a corner, a wooden house with a blue roof and white walls appeared in front of the roadside. It was surrounded by a low white wooden fence. Behind the house was a small forest.

I don’t know what kind of crops are planted in the farm on the roadside. They have grown to more than half a meter high and are golden in the early morning sunshine.

"It should be right here."

Ethan slowed down and parked in front of the house.

Blake picked up his cell phone and started calling. After a while, the door of the small white villa was opened, and a middle-aged man with a somewhat handsome appearance walked out.

Blake got out of the car in surprise, ran forward and hugged the middle-aged man.

Ethan also turned off the engine and got out of the car, and took Blake's suitcase out of the car.

Heavy footsteps sounded behind, and Ethan turned around. Blake's uncle walked behind him and stretched out his hand with a smile.

"Hello, I'm Jonathan Gaines, thank you for sending Blake."

"Mr. Gaines, you call me Ethan. You're welcome. Blake and I are friends."

Ethan shook hands with him. Jonathan's hands were covered with calluses and he was dressed like a typical American small farmer. He wore thick brown leather boots, blue jeans, and a jacket outside his shirt.

At this time, someone else came out of the house, a blond middle-aged woman with a cute little girl.

After they hugged Blake, they walked over together.

"You can just call me Jonathan. I heard Blake's father mention you. This is my wife Karen and my daughter Wendy."

Jonathan introduced him with a happy face, and after Ethan shook hands with Karen, he took out a bag of chocolates from the car.

Yesterday, Blake told him that his uncle's family had a little girl, whom they bought together just now when they were buying coffee on the road.

"Wendy, nice to meet you. This is the gift I brought you."

Ethan smiled and handed the big bag of chocolates to the little girl.

The little girl Wendy looked at the chocolate in Ethan's hand, her eyes almost shining, but she still didn't take it and looked at Karen.

After Karen and Jonathan smiled at each other, they said to Wendy:

"This is a gift for you, you can accept it."

"Thank you." Wendy happily took the chocolate from Ethan's hand, then bit her finger and looked at him.

"You look so handsome."

Everyone burst out laughing. Jonathan picked up Wendy and said to Ethan:

"Come in and do it, Karen has prepared a sumptuous breakfast for you."

Ethan raised his hand to look at his watch and declined:

"Thank you. I've already eaten on the way. Now I have to rush back to work, so I won't disturb you."

After hugging Blake, Ethan and Jonathan's family waved goodbye and got in the car to return to Banshee Town.

Back at the police station, Ethan went straight to the coffee machine.

He didn't return to his seat until he had received a large cup of coffee.

"What time did you go to bed last night?" Siobhan knocked on his desk with the duty sheet.

"It's not very late, only around three o'clock."

"Young people are in good health. Is your little friend gone already?" Siobhan grabbed his strong arm.

"Yes, I just came back from sending her off, but compared to her, it seems like you are just a kid."

Ethan looked at Siobhan with interest, and when he mentioned the word "small", his tone increased and he said it with a double entendre.

Siobhan's expression changed, and he walked quietly behind Ethan, and then wrapped his arms tightly around his neck without ceremony.

"What are you talking about? Say it again if you dare."

"Wrong, I was wrong, you are also a big friend." Feeling the pressure behind him, Ethan happily begged for mercy.

"That's pretty much it." Siobhan let go of his arm and rubbed his hair.

"This is a police station, and the influence is not very good. Why don't you two go get a room?"

Brock, who was sitting next to him, also joined in the fun, and the next moment he was pushed back with two middle fingers, and Emmett burst into laughter.

Today, Ethan and Siobhan went out on patrol again.

After walking around for a few times, Alma's voice rang on the radio. She had received a report that someone was being harassed in her backyard and asked them to go over and deal with it.

After the two looked at each other, Siobhan turned the steering wheel and drove towards the address where the crime was reported.

Soon we arrived at the scene of the reported crime. As soon as we got out of the car, we heard loud shouting from behind the house.

"Get out of my backyard, I'm calling the police, you bastard."

He and Siobhan hurriedly crossed the lawn between the two houses and came to the backyard of the house.

In the swimming pool in the backyard, a naked long-haired man stood angrily cursing at the people outside the guardrail at the back. There was also a naked man squatting down and hiding aggrievedly behind the long-haired man.

Ethan took another closer look and saw that yes, they were all men.

"Hey, what's going on here?"

Siobhan saw the white man wearing a hood standing outside the fence and shouted quickly.

The people in the swimming pool heard the sound and said in surprise:

"Officer, you guys are here well, please arrest this lunatic quickly?"

The hooded man did not run away. He grabbed the fence with both hands and shouted angrily:

"Why did you betray me, why?"
