Chapter 162 - 162 Public Security
Because there were too many uncertain factors here, and they were abroad, Vivian decided to keep a low profile. She did not wear any jewelry, but everyone could imagine how beautiful she was just by looking at the half of her face that was not covered by the sunglasses.
As usual, Vivian was staying in the Presidential Suite. For safety reasons, apart from Fanny and the two female bodyguards, David also stayed in the suite. This was a special situation, and it was a good thing that there were more rooms.
As soon as she settled down, Vivian’s phone rang. She saw that it was a call from Leon and pressed the answer button.
!!
Leon’s pungent voice which was unique to puberty came from the other end of the phone. “Mom, you should be at the hotel by now, right?”
Vivian pursed her lips and smiled. “I just got to the hotel and put down my things. Everything went smoothly on the way, don’t worry.”
When Leon heard Vivian’s voice, he relaxed. “That’s good. I heard that it’s especially unsafe at night there. Try not to go out and remember to eat on time. If you’re not used to it, let Fanny cook.”
Vivian nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice as she said, “Okay, don’t worry. It’s five o’clock in the afternoon here, so it should be twelve o’clock in China. Go to bed! Remember to eat calcium tablets every day!”
Both mother and son regarded each other as people who needed special care, and they talked for a while before hanging up.
Everyone took a seven to eight-hour flight and went to the hotel to rest for a while before leaving. The place to eat wasn’t far from the hotel, so Jobs took everyone on a walk to eat some local specialties.
Due to Vivian’s pregnancy, Jobs’ first consideration in the restaurant he chose was hygiene and food safety. He found a clean and tidy restaurant with a large number of diners.
It was a two-story wooden building. After entering the door, the right side of the building facing the path was equipped with wooden glass windows that could be opened and closed on both sides. It had a rather retro Southeast Asian style. Sitting inside, Vivian felt a strong exotic atmosphere.
American food was sour and spicy, with heavy oil and many spices. The menu is only written in M Country language and no pictures. After asking Vivian for her taste, Jobs ordered tom yum soup, curry chicken rice, and deep-fried vegetable patties.
Because there was a large dining table, everyone was divided into two tables to eat. During the meal, Jobs took the opportunity to talk to everyone about local customs, such as not being allowed to stare at girls and not touching children’s heads, to avoid unnecessary conflicts.
Mandhesi was located in the center of the M Country. Along with the capital of the South, Yangdong, it was a big city with a dense population, good economic development, and convenient transportation. However, the remote areas in the North and Central regions were very backward and the economy was sluggish. Moreover, the northern region and the border areas of the M Country had been at war for a long time, making it difficult for the government forces to control.
After the meal, everyone once again felt the “peace” of the M Country on the way back to the hotel.
Just as Vivian thought the security in Mandhesi was not as bad as she had imagined, she saw a backpack robbery on the street.
The local couple who had been robbed looked to be dressed better than the others. The robber was very fast. He directly tore off the shoulder bag from the woman’s back and left on his motorcycle.
The pedestrians on the road seemed to be used to it. When they were robbing, they stopped and took a few more glances, but no one had any intention of helping. Seeing the robber’s back disappear, they lowered their heads and continued to do what they had not finished.
The young couple was a little confused at first, but after they regained their senses, the two of them continued to walk forward after exchanging a few words. Their walking speed was as slow as before, and they looked very calm and did not look like they were going to call the police.
This scene stunned Vivian, and she asked in surprise, “They don’t seem to plan on calling the police?”
Jobs spread his hands and shrugged helplessly. “It’s useless to call the police. The soldiers and police are busy with other things. To them, things like robbery and theft are small matters. They will take care of it when they are free, but they are probably not free.”
“It’s fine if it’s useless. If those people from earlier find out about this, they’ll come after you specifically next time.”
Fanny quickly stuffed Vivian’s handbag into her coat. She was glad she had worn a coat because she was worried about getting sunburnt. Then, she pressed the bag tightly with her arm.
