The police car stopped slowly as the brakes were applied. Through the car window, the large archway in Chinatown stood right in front of their eyes. The warm vermilion color made everyone who saw the archway feel the strong warmth in it. After all, for Chinatown, the Lunar New Year is already very close. "At this time of year, Chinatown is so lively." Tom drove the police car slowly under the archway in Chinatown. The streets seemed to be crowded with people coming and going. Many signs with Chinese characters have changed from the English signs on the street just now, making people mistakenly think that this is not New York on the other side of the ocean, but a return to the familiar mainland China. Qiao Xue looked at the shops on both sides of the street, at the facades hung with red lanterns and couplets, and at the friendly Oriental faces, and couldn't help but feel like she was home. When the police car turned a corner, Qiao Xue suddenly shouted to stop, got out of the car and went to a street on the side of the road to buy two boxes of stinky tofu. "Oh! God! What is this?!" Tom suddenly refused to drive. He pinched his nose and looked like he was about to collapse. Seeing his expression like this, Qiao Xue seemed to be happy. She proudly picked up a piece of stinky tofu, blew on it, and put it in her mouth. ¡°(Chinese) I¡¯m so stupid. I¡¯ve been here for almost a year, why haven¡¯t I ever thought of visiting my ¡®hometown¡¯?¡± Qiao Xue scolded with a smile while eating. This made Tom next to him seem a little incomprehensible. He stared blankly at Qiao Xue eating the stinky tofu in her hand, frowning constantly, appearing to be hesitant to speak. "It's a shame that you Chinese can eat it. The taste of this thing is really amazing." Qiao Xue laughed. Passed another box of stinky tofu. Said: "I can see at a glance that you have never eaten the 'notorious' food. Come on. Try it, maybe it will make you have a little change in your view of our country." "No, no, no! I have changed my mind, God. Ah! I always thought that you Chinese people are very demanding about food! But Oh, God, God! "Tom doesn't care about the snow falling outside No, in this Chinatown. In the sky above, the flying snow seemed unable to fall at all. The festive atmosphere here and the heat generated by the rows of restaurants along the aisles caused the snowflakes to evaporate into mist before they even hit the ground. It seems a lot warmer here than outside. Qiao Xue snorted directly. Said: "You haven't eaten yet, and you have already expressed your opinions prejudgmently? Are you like this when handling cases? Try it, I won't cheat you." Under Qiao Xue's constant persuasion, Tom frowned He frowned and finally looked at the stinky tofu served in a cardboard box with disgust. He hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out and took the box. He picked up the wooden chopsticks handed over by Qiao Xue, looked at them up and down for a long time, then grabbed the chopsticks with his hands and took a forkful of the stinky tofu. Lift it up and put it into your mouth. after. He took a bite "Oh! My God! Such a terrible thing! Such a smelly thing!" After just one bite, Tom immediately let go of his chopsticks with a cheated expression on his face. Qiao Xue next to her could not help but hold her stomach and laugh, laughing so hard that she was out of breath. When Tom saw Qiao Xue laughing at him like this, he immediately knew that he had been fooled. He immediately handed the stinky tofu to Qiao Xue and said with an unhappy look: "It's really delicious! I have investigated it now, and I can be very sure. , said with absolute certainty that it was really unpalatable! It was dry, astringent, and had a bit of a sour taste, as if it was about to go bad, especially with such a stinky smell! " Qiao Xue held her stomach. It took a long time to finally recover from this almost convulsive laughter. She wiped the tears from laughter at the corner of her eyes and said: "Oh, thanks to you, I suddenly feel much better! Oh, I'm really sorry, I 'forgot' to tell you, if you just eat this kind of food like this It¡¯s really easy to get tired of it. However, China does have a lot of magic in cooking! For example, I took out these sauces that the boss gave her when she bought stinky tofu. Tear open the sauce packet and carefully pour it on the stinky tofu. "Pour it on top. Okay! Now, do you want to try it again? I promise, you will feel like they have been enchanted!" Tom looked doubtful. He looked up and down at the dark brown, slightly Some dark red sauce. He looked like he didn't believe that these sauces could transform these unpalatable soy products into delicious dishes. However, he still couldn't stand Qiao Xue's persuasion. He carefully picked up a small piece with chopsticks again, put it into his mouth, and took a bite ¡ He¡¯s chewing. While chewing, the guy raised his head and looked at Qiao Xue with a pair of disbelieving eyes. Qiao Xue didn¡¯t say anything, just laughed, tore open the sauce packet and poured it on her own stinky tofu. After Tom next to him glared at Qiao Xue, he directly stuffed the remaining stinky tofu on the chopsticks into his mouth, closed his eyes, and chewed slowly. After finishing this piece, he quickly picked up another piece with chopsticks and continued to put it in his mouth. The moment the stinky tofu entered his mouth, he simply raised his hands, like a music conductor standing on the stage, with his eyes closed and his hands slowly making gestures. In less than three minutes, all the pieces of stinky tofu went into his mouth, and this guy didn't even intend to let go of the sauce at the bottom of the box. He didn't reluctantly leave it until all of it was poured into his mouth. Finish. "Let's drive." Qiao Xue also finished her morning tea and wiped her mouth with a tissue. After placing his hands on the steering wheel, Tom raised his hands and gave Qiao Xue a thumbs up gesture. It wasn't until he drove out of a street that he said with great admiration - "Wonderful Eastern country." Entering Phil Street in Manhattan, they finally reached the destination of their trip. A police car was parked in front of a fruit shop. A yellow line was pulled in front of a door facing the street next to the fruit shop, and two payment police officers were already on standby. Qiao Xue touched the pistol on her waist, hung the police badge around her neck, and got out of the car. Next to him, Tom also got out of the car and walked towards the two police officers.
