v10 Chapter 88: Dinner at the Osbornes

Osborne's residence is located in the Shepherd's Bush area in the London Borough of Hammersmith-Fulham, West London, next to the Loftus Road Stadium, home of Queens Park Rangers. In the evening, Lin Xiuyi and others rode Sean's car. When they arrived here, Officer Ivanova and Officer Dusha had already arrived here in advance.

"Nice to meet your wife, this is a small gift, not a tribute!"

Under Osborn's introduction, Lin Xiuyi met his wife Melissa for the first time. Lin Xiuyi hurriedly gave the other party the flowers and a box of red wine that he specially brought as gifts. The other party was also polite after receiving the gift. He invited Lin Xiuyi to his living room.

The red wine that Lin Xiuyi sent was Chateau Latour, which he bought in a wine shop in France. The price of each bottle of wine was about 500 euros. Lin Xiuyi bought a case of 6 bottles in total, which cost about 500 euros. Around 3000 euros. After all, this was the most expensive red wine Lin Xiuyi had ever bought in his life.

"Castle Latour, it seems that the Wellington steak I prepared today is really suitable, Osborne, go greet the guests, I'm going to the kitchen!"

Osborn stopped his wife's waist, and then kissed her cheek. Then, Melissa said goodbye to Lin Xiuyi and walked into the kitchen. Everyone poured their pre-dinner aperitif.

"Welcome to my house, but the red wine just now is too precious!"

Osborn politely thanked Lin Xiu.

"It doesn't matter, it's the IRS bonus anyway. And I'd like to thank you for the part-time job at Scotland Yard. I'll be back in Tokyo in a few days, and I don't know when I'll be able to see you again... …”

Lin Xiu raised his glass and touched Osborn, and the two immediately talked about other things.

Because the Songkan people are still in Thailand, this time the gathering is the only one without this Thai partner. Lin Xiuyi used the video software on his mobile phone and asked everyone to communicate with Songkan, and every colleague expressed their gratitude to Songkan. And Song Kan, while gaining everyone's friendship, also obviously felt very happy.

The Dover case brought everyone together from thousands of miles away. The four consecutive months of getting along day and night is a precious and unforgettable life experience for everyone. Apart from this rare memory, everyone has more or less I received a big gift from I. In fact, it is difficult to have such a perfect ending in life. And tonight's dinner is more of a commemoration for the upcoming farewell. Remember these police officers from different countries who joined forces to root out the world's largest human trafficking network.

"Officer HAYASHI (Lin), all the police officers here, if you have the opportunity to come to Moscow, I will definitely entertain your friends..."

"This is also what I want to say to everyone. If you have the opportunity to come to Romania in the future, please be sure to contact me..."

After the two police officers from Eastern Europe raised their glasses and drank the first glass of wine together, they warmly invited them again. Sean raised his glass and half-jokingly said to Officer Osborn:

"Okay, Osborn, it looks like it's just the two of us who don't need to be separated! How about you, do you want to find some time to go to my new home and sit down..."

"Of course, Sean, I want to see if your wife's craftsmanship is really as good as you say!"

...

While everyone was chatting happily, Melissa, who had been busy in the kitchen for a long time, finally came out with a cart full of food.

"What's this? It smells good, Mrs. Melissa!"

"It's steak Wellington, plus I've made shepherd's pie, lobster soup and green salad. Well, have a good appetite!"

While speaking, Mrs. Melissa picked up a long kitchen knife from the cart and began to cut what looked like a piece of bread on the spot.

As Melissa slashed, a thick steak fell on the plate like this, and the yellow-looking things on the outside were actually a shell used to wrap the steak. Osborn, who was closest to Melissa, hurriedly added some mashed potatoes and vegetables to the plate, then handed it to the person behind him, and then took the plate from everyone's hands. After everyone had a steak of Wellington in front of everyone, Melissa and the Osbornes handed out shepherd's pie and green salad. Until now, everyone was sitting around.

It was not until everyone finished their pre-dinner prayers that they raised their spoons and began to taste the lobster soup in front of them.

The taste of the lobster soup is very delicious, which is full of milk and lobster flavors. Lin Xiuyi kept putting the delicious soup and shrimp into his mouth with a spoon. The warm soup was swallowed from his mouth and began to nourish Lin Xiuyi's esophagus and stomach, making Lin Xiuyi's appetite widened.

After drinking the lobster soup, Lin Xiu put down his spoon and handed the soup bowl to Osborn who came to serve everyone. Then he picked up the knife and fork again and started to deal with the thick steak in front of him.

"Mrs. Melissa, what is this golden layer outside, it's delicious!"

"Oh, that's foie gras. I battered the outside of the steak several times before putting it in the oven for the test. How about it? It sounds good!"

"It's really delicious, ma'am!"

Lin Xiuyi sincerely praised Melissa's cooking skills~lightnovelpub.net~ To be honest, this is the first time Lin Xiuyi has tasted this kind of steak with a layer of meringue on the outside. It is still warm red meat, which melts in your mouth when you eat it, and the crispy skin wrapped around the outermost adds a richer taste, the deliciousness of the foie gras sauce, the tenderness and fragrance of the beef itself, and the soft mashed potatoes. It really subverted Lin Xiuyi's inherent view that British food is dark cuisine.

Accompanying the Latour wine he brought, Lin Xiuyi quickly finished the Wellington steak in front of him, and then tasted the shepherd's pie on hand, which was roasted with minced lamb poured over mashed potatoes. made. Accompanied with a crunchy vegetable salad. Lin Xiuyi ate a shepherd's pie in no time.

Natalie looked at Lin Xiuyi who was sitting not far from her, and then put another piece of steak into her mouth. Just before Lin Xiuyi arrived here, Natalie was planning to give Osborn a piece of information about the Sontsevor Brotherhood, but when she saw Lin Xiuyi appearing here, she dismissed herself. of this plan.

"You will be leaving the UK in a few days anyway, and I won't be afraid that you will ruin my plan..."

Natalie said to herself silently in her heart.
