America's King of Poetry

Chapter 59 Framed

"Dididi, Dididi, Dididi~"

A sound of the alarm clock woke Arthur from his sleep.

He reached out and pressed the alarm clock on the bedside table, opened his sleepy eyes, and there was already bright sunlight shining through the curtains outside the window today.Needless to say, it was a beautiful day outside.Arthur got up from the bed in a daze, but he heard what seemed to be arguing next door.

Arthur's master bedroom is next to Uncle Ceci's house, and because he and Gina were too loud, Uncle Ceci was unhappy and had some conflicts with Arthur.Arthur didn't care, and continued to go his own way, and Ceci had nothing to do with him.Every time they met in the corridor, they always gave Arthur two supercilious eyes as a greeting gift.

Get dressed and get up, Gina is making breakfast in the kitchen.Since her father Carter entrusted her to Arthur, Gina expected herself to be like a traditional Italian woman, washing and cooking for her lover.She has not yet reached the age to appreciate the boring and emptiness of life, thinking that doing housework and raising children for a man at home is the appearance of happiness.It was also her ideal family life, which she never enjoyed.In the past, my mother never cooked or did any housework at home, and lived like a princess.And Gina ignorantly conceived a blueprint for her future family life through TV, books and home economics classes in school.

Of course, her cooking skills are really not very good, so Arthur would rather do it by himself more often, since he is used to staying in the kitchen anyway.

"Hey, what's up next door?" Arthur asked Gina, leaning against the kitchen door, where she was making spaghetti.

"I don't know. Last night there was a quarrel in their house. Uncle Ceci's voice was very loud. I seem to hear his daughter crying."

Arthur frowned at the mention of Sisi's daughter.Sisi has always regarded her daughter as a treasure, protecting her in the palm of her hand all day long.Originally, there was nothing wrong with this, but he always felt that Arthur wanted to seduce his daughter, so Arthur couldn't bear it.Your daughter Qiao Ya is not a girl who is as beautiful as a fairy, but an ordinary girl who works in a shopping mall after graduating from high school.Of course, the appearance of working at the counter in the mall is indeed more correct, but it is far from his Gina.Especially since she looks so much like Cersei, if Arthur were to do something to her and think of Uncle Cersei when he saw her face, that would be disgusting.

"Let them go... oh, there's no beer in the fridge, remind me to buy some. There's the finals tonight, and I want to drink beer and watch the game."

Today is June 1994, 6. The finals of this season will be held at the Compaq Center in Houston at 8 o'clock tonight. The opponents are the New York Knicks and the Houston Rockets.Arthur asked Abramo to help him buy Rockets in the casino to win 7 points, because he remembered the results of the first game very clearly. He had watched the videos of the 7 games in later generations many times, and he even remembered the half-time points.

He is now thinking in his mind how to manipulate the result of the finals to make Jackie bleed a lot.According to Abramo, Jackie himself also bets with larger international gaming companies to hedge and offset the risks brought by being the banker.It is still quite difficult to manipulate external forces in a finals-level competition.In fact, it will be very difficult to control in the division finals, unless the league makes a move on its own, and Arthur won back a lot of money because of this.

After breakfast and getting dressed, Gina took the subway to school and Arthur went to work at Luciano's.Since Dorothy said last week that she would take back the management rights of the restaurant, Schmidt often gave Arthur a bad look.Of course Arthur didn't bother to pay attention to him. He should skip work or skip work. He went to Nassau County to help his sister clean up the villa. By the way, he held a small meeting, set up an organization, and assigned some tasks.All actions are carried out in an orderly manner, and he can continue to hide in the dark as his little cook, waiting for the opportunity to surface.

Get changed in the locker room, and it's business as usual in the restaurant.Schmidt settled the accounts at the front desk. He seemed to have figured it out and didn't show Arthur any more embarrassment.The waitresses in the restaurant have changed to newcomers, and their eyes lit up after seeing Arthur. The waitresses in the New York restaurant are all short-term workers.The black handyman named Willie greeted Arthur while whistling. He was optimistic and cheerful. He didn't think about anything on weekdays. He just kept his head down on his work. He was a very easy-going person.Carson complained in the back kitchen, smoking a cigarette, that the temperature of the air conditioner was not low enough and that the coolant needed to be added. He complained every day anyway.

And Arthur continued his work, waited for the refrigerated truck to come to carry the steak, and cut the steak with a jigsaw. After a busy morning, everything went as usual.

When it was lunch break, Arthur suddenly wanted to eat seafood fried rice in Chinatown, so he went to the front desk to call the restaurant to order takeaway.Schmidt was on the phone, saw Arthur coming, and hung up the phone with a "snap".He looked a little strange and seemed nervous.Arthur looked at Schmidt, "Hey Schmidt, who are you calling? With your lover? Don't worry, I won't tell your wife... Lend me the phone, I want to order takeaway."

Schmidt pushed the phone in front of Arthur, his expression was still weird, Arthur didn't know what happened, but he always felt that something was wrong.

At this moment, the door "jingle" thought, and someone opened the door and came in.Arthur glanced up subconsciously, and found that there were two middle-aged men in suits, one black and one white.They showed Schmidt their police ID and said, "We are detectives from the New York City Police Department. Is there a man named Arthur Luciano working here?"

Schmidt pointed to Arthur who was about to make a call.

The two police detectives walked up to Arthur and showed Arthur their police certificate. The white police detective said: "Mr. Arthur Luciano, we are arresting you for second-degree sexual assault. You have the right to remain silent. Everything you say will be used as a confession. Please put your hands behind your back, Mr. Luciano."

Arthur was a little confused for a while, second-degree sexual assault?Although Arthur was promiscuous, he would never do such a shameful thing as sexual assault.He doesn't need it either.Besides, he has been very well-behaved these two days. After the weekend meeting, he commutes normally every day. He is tired of being with Gina. How can he have the energy and mood to commit crimes?

He immediately realized that this was a conspiracy, someone was following him, who could it be?Montolo?Jackie?Or someone from another family?Arthur thinks that all kinds of actions are being carried out in private, and Abu, Russell and others are very trustworthy, but there must still be some flaws.Or, he was already part of the opponent's plan.

Arthur didn't resist. He put his hands behind his back and let the black detective handcuff him.

He glanced at Schmidt before leaving, and found that his eyes flickered unnaturally, this guy must be tricky.The colleagues in the restaurant were very surprised, and ran to the front to whisper, Schmidt yelled, "Everyone go back to work, work!" His behavior was so abnormal that he was not surprised by Arthur's arrest, and he didn't even defend Arthur.

Escorted to the car by two detectives, Arthur asked, "Can I make a phone call?"

"We'll talk about it when we get to the police station. Find yourself a better lawyer." Said the black police detective sitting next to Arthur.

Arthur kept his mouth shut.He was neither restless and asking questions, nor was he eager to exonerate himself, shouting his innocence.He was just thinking seriously, going through all the people who might frame him in his mind.At the same time, let yourself digest the bad emotions of the sudden surprise.

Instead, his behavior caught the attention of the two detectives.The white detective in the car was named Brown, and the black detective in the back was named Juan.

"Do you know what kind of charges and sentences you will face, second-degree sexual assault felony... You look so handsome, there is no need to do that kind of thing." Brown, who was driving, said.

"If you are so prescient, you shouldn't arrest me." Arthur said.

"But I'm not a judge, I'm a police officer, and it's my job to arrest you."

"Can I know who was arrested for my violation?" Arthur still wanted to know who his crime target was.

"It seems that you have violated quite a few people." Juan, a black police detective, obviously misunderstood Arthur's meaning.

Arthur didn't bother to explain. He leaned his head on the back of the chair and closed his eyes. He thought to himself that when he came to America, he had done all the murders and burials. It wouldn't make sense if he didn't go to the police station and go to court to see the world.I just don't know how to solve the lawyer's problem. According to Dorothy, Otto's heart is not for himself, but for Montoro.And what about Gina, she must be worried, maybe she will believe that she really did such a thing?This is not the result he wants to see.

Thinking of this, a belated anger suddenly filled Arthur's chest. He clenched his fists and vowed secretly that he would kill all those who framed him!

"Her name is Joya Ceci, I heard about your neighbor." Brown answered Arthur's question.

Arthur's eyes slowly opened, showing anger.
