Hogan nodded gratefully but did not intend to leave.
At this time, the car across the road suddenly started and drove away.
Hogan had thought that the other side would soon change to another car to come to the rotation,
But he did not expect that after this car had gone, there were no other suspicious vehicles.
This makes him a little relieved.
But soon, his brow was furrowed again.
He immediately took off his sleeves and apron and said to the mate,
“Jordan, put up the suspension of business, close the door directly after the customers leave, and then come find me downstairs.”
The mate didn’t know why he was suddenly so anxious, he nodded and said, “Okay Uncle Chen I got it!”
After Hogan finished speaking, he went to the basement alone,
There were two rooms downstairs, which were his and his mate Jordan’s bedrooms respectively.
Hogan returned to his room, the first thing he did was to start packing his luggage,
He only selected the most important things for himself and put them into the suitcase,
Other than that, he didn’t even pack a change of clothes.
Half an hour later, he packed a modest suitcase.
The mate, Jordan, walked down the stairs quickly and said at the door,
“Uncle Chen, the guests have all left, I’ve closed the door.”
“Good.” Hogan said, “Jordan come in.”
“Okay.” Jordan pushed open the door and just walked into the bedroom,
He found Hogan packing his things, so he was surprised and asked, “Uncle Chen, where are you going?”
Hogan looked at him and said, “Jordan, I may have to return to Hong Kong in the near future,”
“After I leave, this store will be handed over to you,”
“My little craft, you have almost learned over the years,”
“From now on you should run this store well, life should not be too difficult.”
Jordan asked in surprise, “Uncle Chen …… you ……”
“How can you go back to Hong Kong? That Liu surname will kill you. ……”
Hogan smiled slightly: “I am illegally staying in the United States, considered an illegal immigrant,”
“Since the police have found me, it is estimated that it can not be too long before I am deported,”
“Even if I do not want to go, but I can not help it.”
Jordan said, “Uncle Chen, you can’t just wait to be deported back!”
“Why don’t you leave New York and hide for a while?”
“No.” Hogan waved his hand and said indifferently,
“I’m tired of hiding for more than twenty years,”
“If I continue to hide like this, I’ll despise myself.”
