Chapter 11: Books to Cleanse the Soul
"BOSS, do you really want to sleep on the couch at night?" Ulysses confirmed for the Nth time, looking at Roy with confused and innocent eyes, the two had a good relationship, and they really didn't understand why they had to sleep in separate beds.
"I'm very, very, very sure!"
Roy laid out a sheet on the couch and put a throw pillow on it, the quilt was already on a chair next to him, and he took off his shoes and tried to lie on it.
He kept shaking his body, feeling the comfort, adjusting the best sleeping position, and nodded with satisfaction.
"It's a little shorter, but it's still adaptable. ”
Ulysses spread his hands helplessly, "Okay boss, if you change your mind, you are welcome to go to bed at any time." ”
Roy pulled the quilt, put it on his body, pressed his head on the pillow, closed his eyes and sighed: "Compared to this, we have more important things to solve in front of us, Ulysses, we are about to run out of food." ”
"Oh, that's not good news. Ulysses replied.
Roy listened quietly, waiting for the other party's next thoughts, but Ulysses didn't take it seriously at all, and seeing that Roy didn't seem to react, he hummed a song and went to take a shower.
Damn Farke, this heartless idiot.
Roy shrugged his head in despair, unable to complain.
……
The next morning, Roy stretched his stiff body, looking at the broken sofa, at first he didn't remember the discomfort, who knew that after a night, he felt that he had been raped a hundred times, and there was no pain in his body.
Whether to choose to be raped by the couch or raped by Ulysses is a question!
He simply did a recovery workout and went to the bathroom to wash up.
After washing, it was already half past six, and it was conservatively estimated that it would take one and a half hours to get to the company, so they would have to leave at least 7 o'clock so that they would not be late.
Roy knocked on the bedroom door, but there was no response, he pushed the door in, looking at Ulysses, who was asleep and had no sense of going to work, he reluctantly played the role of a nanny and asked the other party to get up.
"Hey, Ulysses, I'm going down to buy breakfast, before seven, I'll be washed up and ready to go out, OK?"
"Boss, early. ”
Earlier your uncle, the alarm clock on the mobile phone is not fixed, I am very dissatisfied with your little brother, do you make it.
"Hurry up and get up, I'll be right back. Roy reminded him before leaving the door.
Roy's place is quite prosperous, there are a lot of office workers here, and the distance to the east is a slum, but fortunately it is a little far away from here, so you don't have to worry too much about security, and there is no noisy noise here at night.
Two streets to the west is a park, so morning exercises, dog walks, walks, from time to time pass by Roy, he walked around the street, TMD except for fast food restaurants and newsstands, there is no breakfast for me, said good diligence, brave American spirit?
As a last resort, he went to buy a few more burgers and brought them back unhappily.
He is fed up with this kind of high-calorie, nutritious fast food, not because it is not delicious, but because it is not good for health, it is better to go to Costco or Walmart supermarket to buy some low-cost food.
Of course, it's best to be able to cook at home, but you don't have that condition. Even if he did, he didn't have time to buy groceries, and even if he did, he didn't want to cook......
Poverty and life are declining, and you have to hurry up and make money desperately.
When I got home, it was already 6:50, Ulysses was still washing up in the bathroom, and Roy urged again, so he sat on the couch and flipped through the magazine.
Scientific American is not a vulgar magazine for ordinary people, and there are some technical terms in it, and it will be more laborious to read if you don't know enough.
His English level in his previous life was good, and with the accumulation of this life, he can read quite fluently.
He looked through it for a while, he had something in his heart, he couldn't concentrate, he flipped through other books casually, and suddenly saw the book that Ulysses bought yesterday, and he wondered in his heart, what kind of books would Ulysses read?
Roy picked it up and took a look - "The Perfect Car Shock Guide"?
Roy looked at the cover of the book with a confused expression, and the picture showed two young people driving in the clouds, white clouds drifting past their ears, the breeze blowing the ends of their hair, and their faces were happy and content.
This is really an old driver!
He swallowed and opened the book.
The beginning is the explanation of the noun of car shock, followed by the history of car shock, car shock culture, car shock car advertising, car shock posture, and car shock tips.
He turned the page directly to the climax in the middle, and the stick figure illustrations, striped men and women, vigorously demonstrated one posture after another on the book, educating the world and universalizing all sentient beings.
Stealing Space - Spider Style, Wild Call - Dog Climbing Style, Spring Light on the Chair - Blossom Style, Hero Saving Beauty - Missionary Style, Harmony of Voices - Octopus Style, Carriage Age - Indian Chandelier ......
Roy was dizzying, felt wonderful, didn't know the passage of time, and secretly praised the deep spirit of the old driver.
If you really do something, I'm afraid that you are serious, and serious car shock is no less than academic research.
“BOSS?”
Roy was startled, his arm shook, the book fell off, and he looked at Ulysses in embarrassment and politeness. As the soul of an Oriental, this aspect is still not very embarrassing.
"What's wrong?"
Ulysses said, "I'm OK, I'm ready to go to work." ”
"Oooh. Roy picked up the books, put them on the table, and flipped through the other books as if he were disguised as if he were something—"The Perfect Disappearance Handbook," "How to Make a Nuclear Bomb," "Superhero Physics," and "Class."
It seems that except for the last "Style", which is relatively normal, the other books are extremely strange.
Roy really admires Ulysses in his heart, and he is definitely a talent to be able to find out these non-mainstream books in such a short time.
"Do you want to go at once?" asked Ulysses.
"Oh, what time is it. Roy still had some lingering car tremors in his head, and his head was a little foggy and sluggish.
"It was 7:10. ”
"Damn, let's go. Roy stuffed the books into his bag, put on his coat, and headed out of the house.
"BOSS, don't you bring the "Perfect Car Shock Manual"? Look at the comments above, follow the operation inside, get a lot of fun, this is an easy-to-read and easy-to-understand practical tutorial that will never brag. Ulysses said with great admiration.
"Ahem...... No need. Time is too late, speed. ”
Roy took the lead and walked out the door.
While waiting for the bus, he took out the book "How to Make a Nuclear Bomb" and found that it was a very serious book, which broke up all the knowledge points related to nuclear weapons and explained it clearly - including how to form a team, what equipment is needed, and even how to load a bomb.
In the preface, the author said that the purpose of writing the book is to help everyone be vigilant against terrorism.
Roy closed his mouth in surprise, completely unexpected, you TM is funny, can this be wary of terrorism?
Tsk, it's worthy of the country of the American imperialists, and I still have to work hard to adapt.
He couldn't wait to open the book "The Perfect Disappearance Manual", which is said to be a life-saving classic of social phobia, the author is an RB person, and the book is very detailed and intimate to list you the strategy of missing for a month, months, years, and a lifetime. From finding friends that parents don't know, to plastic surgery to fake identities, everything is available.
I'm running away from debt, and I seem to need it.
The author of "Superhero Physics" is Professor Kakarios of Minnesota State University in the United States, and this physics professor is a brain-dead fan of hero comics.
Research topics in the book include:
How many burgers does the Flash have to eat to run faster than sound?
Can the tall buildings in Superman's hands move between the two places and still be intact?
Can Atom get to the other end of the phone with the electrons in the phone line?
……
Roy opened the last book, "Style", and read the Chinese words carefully, and before he knew it, his eyes were like pebbles, his adrenaline began to rise, and his spirit was completely attracted...... Not even Ulysses was heard reminding him to get on the bus.
