Chapter 115 Lee Ethan, the Disliked One
At the police station entrance, Li Yisen bid farewell to his three "subordinates," but before parting, he still expressed his inner doubts.
"I just asked the other team leaders, and there is no assignment within the police department to investigate the Thomas Bird family."
Kaia looked exhausted, her panda eyes bulging as she answered.
"The FBI should be in charge, I heard even the Department of Homeland Security is involved. Our police department is just playing a supporting role, the most important task is of course handled by the federal agencies."
"That's true. By the way, Kaia, you haven't told me how you feel about me becoming your boss."
Even with panda eyes, the policewoman still squinted.
"Do you need it?"
"Isn't it necessary, Chief?"
"A petty person gains power."
"Of course I'm happy, after all, it's faster than you, a second-generation police officer with your father's backing."
"Bang."
The elbow strike caused Lee Ethan some pain, but he still pretended to be in a lot of pain.
"If I break it, you'll have to pay for it."
"Hmph, do you really feel pain?"
Witnessing the policewoman leave in a huff, Lee Esen couldn't help but admire her keen observation skills, as she discovered how horribly fleshy he was. Perhaps Freya had tipped him off?
Under the cover of night, Li Yisen was suddenly made the acting team leader, which made him sigh with emotion.
"This is the first time I've earned 5 stars through legitimate means. I guess being a detective is definitely better."
The only slight regret is that my new boss suddenly died. Luckily, we weren't close, otherwise it would have been heartbreaking.
The next morning, Li Yisen and other police officers, dressed in their uniforms, saluted the coffins that were being carried out at the police station entrance, while the American national anthem played, and there was even a ceremonial team to see them off.
The memorial service was already quite lavish. The coffins will then be sent to the cemeteries arranged by their respective families. As colleagues, they will not participate. Today also happens to be Li Yisen's and others' rest day.
In the evening, Lee Ethan was using his computer to research the Baptist Party's activities over the past 100 years. It has to be said that this branch of the KKK, including its predecessor the Homeland Party, has a history of 140 years, while the KKK itself is only 160 years old.
What intrigued Lee even more was that, despite the newspapers detailing numerous crimes committed by the Baptist Party over the years, they were still active in Southern California. Perhaps they had powerful backers.
Just then, the phone rang. It was Kaiya calling, and a strange female voice came from the other end.
"Hey, what's up?"
"Kaiya's drunk. If you don't come over, you'll be picked up by some other man."
"Who are you?"
"I'm her friend, but I'm busy right now and can't take her."
"Okay, give me an address."
Inside the top-notch bar, Li Yisen arrived at the designated spot and immediately saw three women sitting on his left, one of whom, a red-haired woman, beckoned to him.
"Here, here."
Lee Ethan sat down speechlessly, because apart from Kaiya, the other two women were looking at him with great interest.
"Didn't you say you were drunk?"
Kaia blushed slightly as she explained.
"They took my phone and made the call while I went to get a drink."
"We'd also like to get to know Mr. Li. Can we call you Ethan? And look, Kaia's almost drunk too."
Kaiya ignored the topic that had been brought up and went straight to introducing her best friend from high school.
Vanessa Morris became the California State Attorney this year.
"Winnie Hughes is a big star who has played leading roles."
The red-haired woman named Winnie Hughes has a hot figure, and her slightly chubby face makes her look youthful and energetic.
"She's not a big star, she just played the female lead in a small TV series."
Since it was a case of people helping each other on a flowery bridge, Li Yisen naturally chose to say nice things.
"Being able to play the female lead in a TV series means she must be a big star."
"Ethan, you have a really sweet tongue."
Lee Ethan chuckled a few times and looked at Vanessa Morris, who was wearing glasses beside him. She had long black hair, delicate and refined features, and a tall and voluptuous figure, giving off a quiet and scholarly air, which was quite rare in America.
To become a California prosecutor around the age of 26, one not only needs to graduate from a law school accredited by the American Bar Association, but also pass the California bar exam with a pass rate of less than 20%. Most importantly, there are far more applicants than positions available in California, so no matter the reason, one is very capable.
"Miss Vanessa is a prosecutor, so please take care of me if we meet in court in the future."
"Let's learn from each other."

Lee Esen immediately realized that the three of them had completely different personalities.
Winnie Hughes suddenly took out her phone and opened the photo album.
"Look, this is a photo of the three of us from high school. This is me, so uncool, right? This is Vanessa dressed like a hot girl, and this is Kaia, dressed like a tomboy. She was very competitive and always said she would be stronger than men."
Goodness, all Li Yisen could say was goodness, this is what happens when a girl grows up. Winnie Hughes looks like a country girl, and Kaia's short hair is something I've never seen before. Vanessa was definitely hot in high school, and she had plenty of assets.
Despite his complaints, Li Yisen still took out his phone.
Send me the photos.
"Okay, add my account, I'll do it right away..."

Before Winnie Hughes could join her friend, Kaia had already grabbed her high school best friend's hand, smiling warmly, but what she said had a different meaning.
"Winnie Hughes, I really will kill you."
"Sorry, sorry, my hand hurts, please let go."
They were stopped by others at the time and did not send the message in person, but their eye contact confirmed that they would talk about it in private.
And so the four of them began drinking. No matter how much the three women tried to get Li Yisen drunk, he didn't get very tipsy. On the contrary, as the three women got more and more drunk, they all began to show a different side of themselves.
Winnie Hughes started putting her arm around Ethan Lee's shoulder, acting like good buddies, while Vanessa Morris, after being approached by a man, took off her glasses and glared fiercely at him.
"You dare hit on me? I'll kill you!"
Kaia, on the other hand, seemed to be drunk.
At 10 p.m., Li Yisen looked at the three pieces of paper with addresses written on them, and then at the three unconscious women. They trusted me so much, weren't they afraid of what would happen to them?
"Check out."
After Li Yisen made three trips to carry everyone into the car, he actually encountered a guy who wanted a piece of the pie, and he looked like he had a lot of money.
"How about you share one with me, brother? I'll give you $1000."
"roll."
"$3000, $5000."
Li Yisen couldn't help but grab the man's collar; his cold gaze made him feel as if he were being stared at by a ferocious beast.
"Don't bother me, understand?"
"I understand, I'll get out now."
They soon arrived at their first destination, Winnie Hughes's home, where her female roommate picked them up.
When Winnie Hughes returned to her room, she was shaken awake by her roommate.
"It's really rare to have a man drive you home. Is this man helpful to your career?"
Winnie Hughes drank the electrolyte sports drink that was handed to her, which had a sobering effect.
"He's a police officer named Ethan Lee. He's appeared on quite a few shows representing the police. It's not that I'm interested in him, I just think it would be nice to have some rumors circulating about him."
"As expected of you."
Being rumored to be romantically involved with a celebrity is also a bad thing.
On the other side, Lee Ethan shook Vanessa Morris's shoulder.
"Vanessa, stop pretending to be asleep and go back."
Vanessa Morris opened her eyes.
"I wasn't pretending to be asleep, I just wanted to see if you, Ethan, were the kind of person who would take advantage of the situation."
"What do you think?"
"We can be friends, or we can cooperate within the legal system. Goodnight."
"Good night."
After witnessing the female prosecutor open the door and go home, only Kaia remained.
The address on the package was "apartment" instead of "parents' home," so he had no choice but to deliver it to the apartment.
The door opened, and Lee Ethan carried Kaiya into the room, put the homeowner on the bed, helped her take off her shoes, and went to the kitchen to make some hangover tea. He had been in America for several years and still preferred hangover tea to energy drinks or hangover pills.
"I have to go to work tomorrow, so I'll have a drink before I go to sleep."
"Waaah"
After several minutes of feeding, Li Yisen finally finished the cup. Looking at the flushed face, he couldn't help but admire it. Without his cunning and sharp tongue, this guy was actually quite good-looking.
Especially moist lips, the experience should be great.
It's not just a feeling; I experienced it that time and was indeed very satisfied.
Whether it was due to alcohol or something else, Li Yisen eventually lowered his head and gnawed at it.
It has a rosy sheen and a smooth, delicate texture.
The only sounds in the quiet room were the ticking of the clock and the occasional sounds of raiding and looting.
Just as Li Yisen was about to take things further, his hands were grabbed.
Sure enough, a pair of beautiful eyes were staring intently at him, and the blush on her cheeks made her look less aloof and more stunning.
Even nervousness and timidity flashed by, but there was no anger.
"How long do you plan to keep it before taking it back?"
Li Yisen raised his head.
"I'll listen to you."
"Ethan Lee, I never thought you were this kind of person. How does it feel?"
"A drunk woman reeking of alcohol, frankly, much worse than last time. As for whether I'm that kind of person, isn't that what the Chief indulged? I know you were already sober when I was feeding you tea, and you didn't stop me, Kaia."
The words of a "pig" are irrefutable.
"you....
'
With a face so close to his, it was hard to guess what was in the woman's heart. For the first time, she showed a shy expression, allowing Li Yisen to see her more clearly.
The shy Kaiya completely conformed to all his aesthetic standards, especially since he was white-haired, which might just be an illusion under the influence of alcohol.
Lee Esen lowered his head.
"Leave it to me, my lord."
Kaiya did not stop them this time, nor did she push her luck.
The next morning, when Kaia opened her eyes, she was greeted by a face staring at her.
"You're awake."
Kaiya quickly turned around, but the man took the opportunity to hug her.
"I never knew you had such a cute side after knowing you for three years."
After a few minutes of cuddling, Kaiya slapped away the hand that was making a fuss.
"Do you still remember our dreams? I don't want to jeopardize those dreams."
Li Yisen paused for a moment, then he understood what he meant.
California law prohibits police officers from working in the same department as their spouses or partners; this is called the principle of recusal, and most countries have this rule.
"Am I being rejected?"
Kaia turned around again, cupped the man's face in her hands, and pressed her lips against his.
This can be considered both a consolation and an admission of guilt.
A moment later, the sound of water came from the bathroom. Li Yisen looked at the red sheets and felt really regretful and annoyed.
I never imagined that one day I would be considered a burden and disliked by a woman, and that I would actually be attracted to her. What a speechless career woman.
