Chapter 455: Gram Shelton
Midnight.
Peggy's rare heart-to-heart conversation with Adam.
The other pole of the country.
California.
Pasadena.
California Polytechnic University.
Dr. apartment building.
There was a knock on the door of an apartment.
Due to the issue of jet lag.
It's two o'clock in the morning in New York.
And it's only eleven o'clock in the evening.
If you are an ordinary college student, most of you are still at a party at the moment.
But the occupants of this apartment, before nine o'clock every night, must put on their pajamas and lie down in a neat quilt, with only one head exposed, like Dracula, and sleep unmoving.
Emmmγ
All right.
If it really thundered in his ears, with his character of almost fearing everything, he would definitely not be able to sleep.
That's right!
This 'vampire count' is none other than Sheldon Cooper, who is now studying for his second Ph.D. at Caltech.
In your sleep.
Sheldon's face was horrified, and he kept shaking his head from side to side.
"Gunn, don't hit me, I'm just a train on time, don't hit me, Spock save me......"
Sheldon closed his eyes and muttered.
Knock knock.
Knock knock.
Knock knock!
At this moment, there was a knock at the door.
"No!"
Sheldon let out a loud cry, woke up suddenly, and quickly touched his whole body, and found that it was intact, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.
In his dream, he was transformed into a locomotive, whimpering with joy.
Suddenly, a bridge car came from the side of the road and drove alongside him.
In the driver's seat of the saloon sat a crocodile-headed monster, with a lizard-skin-covered hand on the window, and the crocodile-headed two red eyes looked at him, as if smiling at him.
With the other hand, the steering wheel turned, and the car suddenly approached the direction of the train and made a gesture of impact.
This monster is none other than Gern, an alien race from Sheldon's favorite sci-fi TV series, Star Trek.
It's also his nightmare.
When the knock sounded for the first time, Gunn the monster slammed the accelerator to the bottom and slammed into him as a locomotive.
When the knock sounded a second time, the monster Gunn's face was so close to him that he seemed to be able to smell the stench of the other.
When the knock sounded a third time, the monster Gunn had already hit him with his car.
Terrified, Sheldon wakes up from his nightmare.
Knock knock!
There was still a knock at the door.
Sheldon looked annoyed, lifted the covers, got up, and walked out of the bedroom to the door.
Then he thought of something, and his anger vanished, and his face became a little frightened, and he turned back to the bedroom.
When he came out again, he already had a short stick in his hand, and when he pressed the button, the head of the stick shot a red light.
It was the famous lightsaber from Star Wars.
Sheldon held a lightsaber, cautiously walked to the door, looked out through the cat's eyes, and saw a middle-aged woman standing at the door.
But he didn't dare to let his guard down.
Because behind the woman there was a sturdy man in a black suit.
"Who?"
"Sheldon Cooper?"
"It's me, who are you?"
"We're Caltech's security guards, and we're going to escort you to the University of Chicago for an academic exchange, and we have to leave now, but we're arranging an RV, so you can continue to sleep in the car. β
The middle-aged woman laughed.
"You said you were the security guard of the school, what proof do you have?"
Sheldon asked through the door.
Well, he didn't doubt that he would be able to get such treatment.
"This is our campus access card. β
The middle-aged woman held a card with a portrait on it and put it in front of the cat's eyes.
Creak.
Sheldon ajar the door, the burglar still hanging, constantly scrutinizing the visitors with an expression of 'you might be the bad guys'.
"What about his?"
"Jon. β
The middle-aged woman reminds the male security guard to show his ID card.
The middle-aged man named Jon reluctantly took out his identification card and put it in front of Sheldon's eyes.
"Is it okay?"
The middle-aged woman laughed.
"Wait a minute. β
Sheldon was so easy to figure out, motioned for the two of them to wait outside the door, went to the bedroom and took out his wallet, took out a card from his wallet, and showed it to them.
"This is my Justice League membership card. β
"What do you mean?"
The male security guard, Jon, looked confused.
"I don't know Batman because I have this. β
Sheldon looked at them contemptuously.
Can't identity cards be faked?
It's too much to underestimate his intelligence!
"You can contact the school security office and they can testify against us. β
The middle-aged woman smiled: "It's like you can call Director Gordon and ask him to prove that you know Batman, and others will believe that you are really a member of the Justice League and really know Batman." β
"You've seen the Justice League too?"
Sheldon was slightly less vigilant.
"My son really likes to watch it, so I watch a lot of it. β
The middle-aged woman laughed.
"Wait a minute. β
Sheldon walked back to the living room, picked up the phone, dialed the school's security, and asked for a long time.
During this period, the information on the identity cards of the two people was turned over and over again, and several traps were set up.
Vigilance is off the charts.
"Believe it now, right?"
Jon, the male security guard, stood outside for more than ten minutes, and when he saw Sheldon finally hang up the phone, he couldn't help but complain.
"Of course...... Nope!"
Sheldon shook his head: "Who knows if you guys are colluding?"
"Who would be so boring?"
The male security guard, Jon, had a headache.
"Oh~"
Sheldon smiled, revealing a smile on Xing's head: "That's not good, terrorists, agents of the Northern Universe, aliens?"
Saying this, he stared at the two of them with fixed eyes, and once again held the lightsaber in his hand, with a posture of attacking at any time.
No way.
He had just dreamed that Guern had attacked him, and now suddenly two strangers came in the middle of the night to take him away.
This is so suspicious.
Maybe it's an alien conspiracy.
You know, he is the king of wisdom on earth who represents the hope of mankind.
Once he is taken captive, the earth will be completely played.
For the sake of the future of the entire planet, he had to be careful.
"How can you trust us?"
The middle-aged woman also smiled helplessly.
"That's what I should say. β
Sheldon raised his lightsaber, his neck hunched, his eyes widened, "How can you convince me?"
"Well, we've got a showdown, we're not from the school security department. β
The middle-aged woman spread her hands.
"Aha! I knew it!"
Sheldon yelled, "You evil aliens, try to kidnap me, don't dream." β
"We are security professionals hired by your good friend Adam Duncan to help you get to the University of Chicago. β
The middle-aged woman explained: "If you don't believe me, you can call him for verification." β
"Adam?"
Sheldon was skeptical.
"Yes. β
The middle-aged woman nodded.
It's not a self-assertion that she doesn't have a work ethic.
But Adam told Lisa to find someone.
If Sheldon can be convinced of their identity, forget it.
If you can't, tell the truth.
No way.
Adam knew Sheldon too well to think that there might be such a play.
It's just that he still fantasizes that he doesn't need to come forward.
I have to say that Adam is still too naΓ―ve.
