John Fitzgerald Kennedy International Airport, located in Jamaica Bay, southeast of Queens, New York City, is the largest of the three airports in New York and the farthest from their destination, Manhattan, but it is the airport with the largest international flight traffic (76.6%), and they only need to transfer once by plane from Qiantang, so they still chose to buy a ticket here.

After an 18-hour flight, Liu Zheng and Luo Zhijian finally arrived in New York at 4 o'clock in the morning of the next day.

The two of them found the booked hotel with a sore back, and they didn't bother to see any night view, so they rolled into bed and fell asleep, and didn't wake up until noon.

Before leaving, Fu Shenzhou had already arranged ground pick-up personnel for them, a Chinese who lived in New York, and was also a superpower, who had filed cases in the special group, and heard that he would occasionally do some things for the special group office, so he also asked him for help this time.

It was not far off when I agreed to meet him, and the two of them ate something indiscriminately, then packed up their things and went downstairs. At this time, a Chevrolet car with New York license plate was already parked in the parking lot outside the hotel.

This was the first time that the three Chinese people met in a foreign land.

"Hello, hello! I am Liu Zheng from the Qiantang Special Group Office, and this is my colleague Luo Zhijian. Liu Zheng shook hands with the visitor.

The one who came to pick them up was a Chinese man, who should be younger than Liu Zheng in appearance, and it is estimated that he has only graduated from college a few years ago, he is not tall, and he always squints, as if he is smiling every moment.

"Hello two, my name is Luoyang, I flew here from Huaxia, the journey is tiring, you have worked hard." He smiled and said hello to Liu Zheng, and shook hands with Luo Zhijian. This person's Mandarin is very standard, not like ABC, he should have come directly from China.

Liu Zheng waved his hand and said: "It should be, it should be, but you have to make a special trip to pick us up, it's really hard." ”

The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while, put their luggage away, and started the car in the direction of Manhattan.

The car turned out of the airport and got on the elevated road, Luoyang turned back and said to the two: "Our destination is the RAND Group, the address is on Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, from here it is 15 miles, converted into the domestic name of about 25 kilometers, if there is no traffic jam, it can be reached in about 3 hours." However, Manhattan is the center of New York, and today is a weekday, so hopefully the traffic won't be too congested! ”

Qiantang because the underground traffic is not developed enough, so the ground traffic situation is not ideal, a few years ago was rated as one of the top ten "city jams" in China, so for traffic jams, Liu Zheng and Luo Zhijian are psychologically prepared, and they have no opinions.

In order to deepen the impression, the three of them made a brief self-introduction, as Liu Zheng and they guessed, Luoyang is an international student who came to Columbia University in New York to study in Huaxia, because of his excellent character and learning, so he stayed in New York to work after graduation, and now lives in Brooklyn and works in an insurance company.

Anyway, driving is boring, a few of them chatted in the car, Liu Zheng and Luo Zhijian came to New York for the first time, and Luoyang gave a brief introduction to the city.

New York is the largest city and port in the United States, as well as the financial center of the United States, where most of the richest and richest people live. New York is composed of five districts: the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan and Staten Island, with a total area of about 1,200 square kilometers and a permanent population of about 9 million, plus a floating population of only 20 million. At first glance, New York seems to be quite small, not to mention the area of Shanghai, the magic capital, if Qiantang is counted in the surrounding districts and counties, it can't be compared. But where is the difference, New York is a highly developed city, full of high-rise buildings as far as the eye can see, and the urbanization level is as high as 85%, which is incomparable to all cities in China.

And New York is known as the "crossroads of the world", its every move is likely to affect the development of the whole world, the United Nations Headquarters Building, New York Times Square, the Empire State Building, the Avengers Building, the Statue of Liberty, Broadway, Wall Street, New York's Central Park... 75 of the world's top 500 companies are located here, and more than 40% of the world's capital is controlled by New York, which has twice as much GDP as Shanghai, according to last year's financial report.

This is the largest metropolitan area in the world, a paradise for the rich and a hell for the poor...

Liu Zheng and Luo Zhijian looked at each other speechlessly, and their hearts were shocked. They only know that New York is rich, but if they don't see it with their own eyes, they don't know how far this megacity has reached in the United States on the other side of the ocean. Although Luo Zhijian has been to San Francisco on the west coast, it must be a very powerful city in China, but compared with New York in front of him, well... It can only be regarded as a beautiful countryside!

As the car drove on the Van Wyck Highway, the skyscrapers outside the window faded away, and the scenery soon changed to lush woods and patches of meadows, which seemed to be a very large park, with some large stadiums hidden behind maple trees in the middle of the park, and a large globe.

Seeing that the two of them were very interested here, Luoyang opened his mouth and introduced: "We have entered Queens, New York, and this is 'Flushing Prairie Colona Park'. It's where Tony Stark holds the 'Stark Expo', no tickets, you can come and visit in the future, the scenery inside is still very good. ”

Luo Zhijian has no impression of this, but Liu Zheng has specialized in the history of several people in the Avengers, and knows how long the history of the 'Stark Expo' is, it has been held since the 60s of the last century, when Tony Stark's father, Howard Stark, was in power, and every time it was an unprecedented grand occasion. People surnamed Stark are all good at marketing, and many high-tech good things are hidden and specially put on the expo to announce, so on the day of the expo, the live broadcast in the United States is definitely indispensable, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it affects the attention of the world.

Liu Zheng was a little excited in his heart, when he was in China, he felt that the superpowers of "Iron Man" and "Thor" were very far away from him, and until he really set foot on the land of the United States, he would find out how far-reaching the superheroes had on the city and the country. It was only now that he personally felt that these superheroes who could set off a wave of fanaticism in China half a world away were by his side, so close that maybe the next moment, someone would fly through the sky overhead, maybe it was 'Falcon', maybe it was 'Iron Man', or someone else.

All three of them were thinking about their own thoughts, and the car drove out of the park and into the bustling city. Looking at the towering high-rise buildings in front of him, Luo Zhijian adjusted his sitting posture a little uncomfortably, and muttered: "I still like nature, this kind of steel jungle, it's really boring to watch." ”

Liu Zheng knew that Luo Zhijian was a native of Yunnan, and he had lived close to nature since he was a child, and he definitely didn't like big cities, so he didn't know how to explain him for a while, so Luoyang smiled in front of him: "Ah Jian and I feel the same!" My hometown is a rural village in the north, with mountains and rivers, and there are fields outside the village, and every family has cattle and sheep. I wasn't used to it when I first came to New York, but fortunately there are beautiful parks in every neighborhood here, so you can relax. Don't worry, there is a very large garden in the center of Manhattan, which is 'Central Park', with lakes, simulated rainforests and the Arctic Circle, which is arguably the favorite place for all Manhattan citizens, and you will love it when you go. ”

This is an eight-sided character, no wonder you can stay in a place like New York where every inch of land is expensive just after graduation, it's not easy! Liu Zheng looked at Luoyang's performance and secretly praised in his heart, if such a character can be absorbed by the Special Group Office in the future, and then trained into a staff member who specializes in dealing with overseas situations, it will definitely be a big help.

He suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Luoyang, I heard Director Fu say, you are also a superpower, and the two of us have been guessing what your ability is on the way here, is it convenient to reveal it?" ”

Luoyang smiled, did not speak, and raised a hand slightly. I saw that the tissue box placed next to the car stall slowly moved, and in the absence of external force, the tissue came out of the box and fluttered gently under the movement of his fingers, which was very magical. In the end, Luoyang clenched his fists, and the paper towel shrank into a ball in the air, and he fell into the garbage bag.

"Hey, hey, have you seen it, it's a special function!" Luo Zhijian was happy, and kept touching Liu Zheng with his elbow, "There used to be this in Hong Kong movies, do you remember Stephen Chow's "The Saint of Gambling"?" As soon as the special function is fired, the fly of the card 'chua chua' is envious of me when I see it! ”

He excitedly grabbed the co-pilot's chair, stretched his head in front and kept gossiping: "Hey, brother, what is your ability called, is it a mind to move things?" It's cool to use, how do you feel? Oops, this is a superpower I've dreamed of since I was a child, and today I finally saw it! ”

Luo Yang smiled: "Haha, in fact, it's not a particularly powerful superpower, it's just a mind to move things." And I can only manipulate those small objects that can be moved under my true power, and if I can't hold large rocks or something with my hands, I can't hold them with my mind. ”

Unlike Luo Zhijian, who has no heart and lungs, Liu Zheng is older and thinks more far-reaching.

The ability to move things with thoughts should belong to [Order Destruction]. He always thought that this was just the ability that existed in the movie, but he didn't expect that anyone would really do, saying that every child has the fantasy that if he can carry objects with his mind, so that he doesn't have to struggle to walk over to get snacks and cups or close the door, Liu Zheng has also had it. If it is really like what Luoyang said, he can't carry heavy objects that he can't bear by himself, then his ability is not too maneuverable in actual combat, and it is more of an auxiliary role, but it still can't be taken lightly.
