Chapter 41
Second floor.
Louis was packing things: stove ash, silver needles, peach wood statue amulets, handguns...
At this time, Emma knocked on the door.
"Did they call you?"
"Mm, Grandfather has handled things over there and wants me to go back."
A few months ago, the family called Louis, claiming that those Mexican drug groups were already retreating, and in about a few months, when things stabilized, they could pick him up and take him home.
As for the kidnapping, there would be a result by then.
David and the others also knew about this.
"Not going to tell David?"
"No need, save him from running back and forth."
Louis zipped up his backpack, put it on, and carefully checked the handgun magazine. This thing couldn't be sloppy.
And Emma looked at Louis, silent for a moment. "Are you coming back?"
???
Louis looked at her in surprise. "Haha, what are you thinking?"
"Grandfather intends for me to live here, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Uncle David to investigate the middle school here last time. However, I probably have to go back there often in the future."
Emma's expression relaxed immediately.
Don't know why, perhaps it was that thing called friendship—the moment she thought Louis was leaving, she felt very reluctant to part, weird.
However, now that she was sure Louis would come back, she felt a bit regretful inside.
Contradictory emotions.
"By the way, don't make trouble while I'm gone for these few days, otherwise, watch out when I come back."
Louis issued a warning.
There was no way around it. Whether it was good or evil, it was never lasting and had to be knocked on from time to time to ensure long-term stability.
Emma was stunned. Alright, now it's confirmed—this guy better not come back!!
Went downstairs.
Seeing Louis with his backpack, Yulenka was somewhat surprised, and then thought of something, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, seemingly a bit gleeful.
Louis glanced, and he knew what this acquired evil child was thinking. "Don't dream about it, I will come back. Emma, watch her. If she dares to mess around at school, we'll see about a human torch when I get back."
Yulenka immediately drooped her face, while Emma was looking at Yulenka insidiously, as if expecting her to do something.
And Carrie, beside them, didn't understand. She didn't understand what Louis meant, and the relationship between Yulenka and Emma seemed... a bit weird?
Aren't they sisters?
And, is Louis leaving? Where is he going? Will he come back?
Carrie's mind was in chaos.
At this time, Louis looked at the dazed Carrie, frowned, and threw a small peach wood crucifix over. "I remember you said your family believes in religion, so I'll give this to you. Bye."
With that, he turned around gracefully.
Just like that, Louis got into a special car under the gaze of Emma, Yulenka, and Carrie, and headed toward Miami.
Just.
Halfway there, the vehicle suddenly stopped, and a yellow and a red figure jumped into the car, and then the vehicle started again.
Miami.
The second-largest city in Florida, an economic city that will be elected as one of the most livable cities in the future, is already beginning to show its edge.
But the reason this city was able to develop is thanks to its special geographical location—coastal and close to Cuba. People from Mexico, Latin America, etc., also like to smuggle from here, and... smuggle drugs!
In the 1970s, this city relied on this method to rise initially, and even vaguely had the title of the capital of white powder. Later, because of the impact of the development of the tourism industry, it gradually disappeared. Even so, in this city, the influence of Mexicans still remained.
As for the Kano family, it was built by Karl Kano and a group of local brothers in the 1930s, an era when gangsters were booming. Today, it has become the family with the closest size to those large gangster families in the United States.
And Miami is the base camp of this family. Here, the Kano family can barely be mentioned in the same breath as the capitalists.
Miami city center.
A manor that looks quite magnificent—fountains, lawns, white stone slabs, and one black-suited man after another with bulging waists...
The black sedan drove in slowly. Several guards glanced at the logo on the front of the car and the driver before letting it pass.
Driving in, after making a few turns, it stopped at the door. Louis got out of the car, and Gold and Kongnue also jumped out of the car, looking around curiously and vigilantly.
Louis looked at this building, and memories began to flash in his mind.
Although he was nominally an illegitimate child, he had actually lived here since birth, raised by his grandfather and eldest uncle. As for his parents?
His father, although a university graduate, was a playboy who earned his own money and spent it himself, ignoring family affairs, traveling and playing outside all year round, rarely coming home;
His mother was a spendthrift. Originally, she had a considerable family fortune in China and belonged to an old family with some heritage. But after the wind changed, because she was superstitious about the advanced business concepts abroad, she wanted to engage in import business from Southeast Asia and Japan. The result?
She was set up by someone and cheated out of her family fortune. In the end, she could only use the remaining money to buy a boat ticket, rely on relatives who were in gangs in the United States, and then somehow met his father. Perhaps she was influenced by the bad atmosphere in the United States, or perhaps she was a bit degenerate after such a big change, and the two were soon together.
But there was actually no affection between the two. They didn't even get married before giving birth to Louis, and then, tired of playing, one returned to the gang in San Francisco as a core member, and the other threw Louis back to the family to continue having fun.
It could be said that Louis was very similar to an orphan.
Fortunately, the Kano family belongs to an Italian family, and like China, they pay great attention to family. Plus, Louis himself performed like a genius and made his grandfather very happy, so his life was quite good—he had food, drink, and people to take care of...
Just as Louis was immersed in past memories, the sound of rapid footsteps rang out.
An old man who looked Chinese walked out of the door, looking at Louis in surprise, tears streaming down his face!
"Young Master!"
The old man rushed over, and Gold and Kongnue instinctively bared their big mouths, but were stopped by Louis.
He let the old man hold Louis tightly.
A moment later.
The old man released him quickly and bowed slightly to Louis. "Young Master."
"Grandpa Fusheng, I'm back."
The old man was the only old servant left by Louis's mother. He was the butler when he was at home. Even when the family declined, he never left, following them to a foreign land. It wasn't until Louis's mother didn't want Louis that he expressed opposition and voluntarily followed him over.
The Kano family also accepted him over a long period of time, but he still only called Louis "Young Master."
In short, except for parents who were roughly equal to none, Louis lacked nothing materially, and there were people who cared about him, which could be considered lucky.
And now, he had even awakened his memory, obtained the inheritance, and had a promising future. He could be called a winner in life.
Eh?
Does my life in this world count as a smooth life exchanged for my parents?
This nonsensical thought flashed through Louis's mind, and then he calmed down, looked at the white, magnificent house in front of him, and walked in.
