These chapters lovies, will be on the shorter side. Maybe I'll post two a a time. I want to get through with this area as soon as possible as I know you do, so please bear with me. I don't want to turn this into a mystery thriller, just a love story,... with some twists.
Noon
Brian knew that Shun Lee wouldn't open its doors before 12PM. He had met Michael Tong years before and knew he would help him any way he could. He called to make an appointment but no one answered as yet so he decided to step into a neighborhood coffee shop on the same block and wait it out. He positioned himself at the window watching who went into the restaurant. Brian being very analytical had all his questions bulleted and couldn't wait to interrogate the delivery boys.
He was on his third cup of tea when Michael Tong's Bentley pulled up and let him out. Brian hurriedly paid his bill, ran out, crossed the street calling to Tong. The owner of the Shun Lee dynasty turned to see a very tall, lanky man with incredibly long black curls blowing in the wind waving furiously at him and calling his name. He had a puzzled look upon his face that soon turned to an upward grin as he recognized an old friend.
"Brian May, my old friend, what brings you to my humble restaurant?" Tong asked.
"Humble, aye?" Brian said with a grin.
Sun Lee Palace was the most expensive and prestigious Chinese restaurant in the United States. People traveled far and wide to frequent it and Michael Tong always made Brian the most delicious vegetarian dishes.
"We, the band, especially Freddie, have a problem that I was hoping you could help us with" Brian said.
"Last week, two of your delivery boys were apparently accosted before delivering to Cynthia Lewis. You didn't know this Michael, but Cynthia is Freddie's girlfriend and they were doing something for Scotland Yard. She's now kidnapped and Freddie is destroyed. I need to speak with those boys and if they can't speak English, I need for you to interpret.
Michael Tongs face took on a fright that didn't go unnoticed by Brian. Tong quickly recovered and told Brian to meet with him in his Bentley. Brian gave him a questioningly look but complied.
They two of them sat in the back seat alone in the Bentley.
"Why here, Michael?" Brian asked.
"Due to my cliental, celebrities, dignitaries and such, I have my car swept every morning for bugs. It was cleared an hour ago so we can speak unfettered.
Michael Tong's POV
I'm very aware of what happened to Ms. Lewis. I'm very distressed over it. She has been a long time customer as well as hosting several charitable functions at my restaurant. What I didn't know till now was your involvement so to speak nor her association with Freddie Mercury. I try to stay out of these...er... situations, but regarding this, you and Queen, I guess I can't.
The two delivery boys are now safely back in China so they are no longer in any danger. Both boys were seized as they left by the rear entrance to the restaurant. They were muzzled and tied and the dinner bags were taken. The boys knew that the two men were Japanese and by their recognized tattoos, were Yakuza. The delivery boys weren't really harmed, just roughed up a bit and left in the Bronx to make their way back here.
I don't know what Ms. Lewis has gotten herself into, but Yakuza are dangerous. Now Brian, that's all I know so before you getting back to the band, how about something delicious, just for you?
Brian's head snapped up and with a grin said, "Michael, let's at it.."
