The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Stefanie, who was sitting opposite to Charlie, saw his discomfort and reached out to gently hold his hand, saying with soft eyes
and a gentle voice, “Charlie, what’s wrong with you?”
Charlie said casually, “Nothing, I’m fine.”
“Not at all.” Stefanie said seriously, “Do you feel that your great uncle sitting downstairs makes you uncomfortable?”
“Sort of.” Charlie also did not try to be brave, nodded slightly as an admission.
Stefanie suddenly felt some heartache for him. She knew that she should not look at Charlie now as super strength,
extraordinary achievements, but after more than twenty years of his parent’s death, he has not lived a satisfactory life, so in his
heart, it is inevitable that there are some sensitive places.
So, she held his hand hard and said seriously “Charlie, if you feel uncomfortable staying here, I’ll lend you the mask to wear, let’s
go first!”
Charlie smiled faintly and said, “It’s okay, I’ll just get used to it a little!”
Hogan came up with two plates of dishes, one was the signature Cantonese-style roast goose and the other was also his
specialty brine platter. He put the dishes in front of Charlie and Stefanie, then whispered to them, “Young Master Wade, Miss
Sun, the store has a regular customer, the Chinese detective Jack Li is also here, you two should not come down for the time
being.”
Charlie was busy asking, “Uncle, Jack Li didn’t recognize you, right?”
“No.” Hogan said, “My look that day was too different from the usual, besides, it was only a one-sided encounter, so it might be
hard for him to remember me.
I deliberately tested it just now, he really didn’t recognize me, so it should be fine.”
“That’s good.” Charlie was slightly relieved, and then asked curiously, “Uncle Hogan, do you know the middle-aged man who
came with Jack Li?”
Hogan said, “I have known him for a long time, he has been a regular customer of the store, but his identity I really do not know
too well, he never speaks and I never ask a question.”
He added “But I guess his identity must be very prominent, he should be a person with a background.”

Immediately after that, Hogan asked Charlie “Young Master Wade, do you know that person?”
Charlie hesitated a little in his heart, but decided not to tell Hogan for the time being. After all, the first uncle was downstairs, in
case Hogan was too shocked after hearing about it, he might reveal something.
So, he smiled and said to Hogan, “I don’t know him either, I just asked casually, Uncle you can go downstairs first, don’t worry
about us, just have the guys bring us food later.”
Hogan waved his hand “How can I do that? I will bring you the other dishes when they are ready, so you can eat first.”
By now, Desmond and Jack Li had already had their drinks. Hogan, in order to prevent Jack Li from remembering himself, asked
the man to serve them some dishes first, Jack Li was not in a state and really did not find any clues.
After the two of them exchanged glasses, Desmond put down his chopsticks and asked Jack Li, “How is your case going? Is
there any progress?”
Jack Li shook his head, then looked at the environment around him and then looked at Hogan and the restaurant staff who were
busy inside, to make sure that they could not hear him, then said in a bored voice “I’m not going to lie, the Joules family is really
worse than one generation.
When I went to the Joules family, I already made it so clear, but I still got kicked out, there is really nothing to say.”
Desmond sighed “This is probably why the authorities are often said to be confused.”
Jack Li sighed “Huh! Originally, I thought that after the Joules family perceived the crisis, they could cooperate with us, but it
turned out that I made a fool of myself.”
Desmond then said, “People may not come back, but I think the case can still be solved, although in three or five days it can not
be solved, playing three to five months, or three years to five years, there will always be the time to uncover the truth.”
