Chapter 7: Dreaming...
On Sunday afternoon, the Parker family returned to their home in Queens, New York, and except for Grady, who had the power of shadow, who didn't seem very tired, the other three were in a state of 'let me lie down and get some sleep'.
In the United States, the legal working hours are 40 hours a week, that is, 8 hours a day for a five-day shift. The rest of the time is a personal break, which can be freely controlled and put into any day.
Because Grady and Peter are in school, Ben and May both put their rest time on Saturday and Sunday, so that they can take the two children out to play together on the rest day, and make up for the mistake of neglecting the children because they are busy with work.
So, on Friday, after the Grady brothers were out of school and Ben and May got off work, the family went out for a big meal as usual and discussed the arrangements for the weekend.
After Grady's suggestion, the family decided to move around the rest of New York.
New York is the most populous city in the world, and the area is naturally not small, even Ben and Mei, who were born and raised, have not visited the whole of New York properly.
Neither Ben nor May, of course, did the two children.
That's why they decided to take advantage of the weekend to visit New York.
In the past two days, the Parker family went to New York's Chinatown, New York's playgrounds, aquariums, zoos, and other places that children like to visit.
Although they wanted to take a good look around New York, the two parents still unconsciously took into account the feelings of their children and chose these places.
Peter Parker said he was very happy to be able to go with his family to the places he had wanted to go for a long time.
Grady was also quite happy because he was able to go to Chinatown.
He didn't go to Chinatown to see the people living in the United States, but because he could buy what he needed - knives and swords.
Guns are not banned in the United States, but they are strict about portable controlled knives, and many states do not allow individuals to carry controlled knives. If discovered, they may be detained on charges of 'carrying dangerous weapons' or 'obstructing public safety'.
There are no traffic police in the United States, but the police in the United States have a lot of power, and it is not a fun thing to be considered suspicious by the police.
Therefore, there are no stores in Queens that sell the knives or swords that Grady needs, at most there are fruit knives sold in convenience stores.
But what is the use of a fruit knife? Can you hack people to death? It's hard to kill chickens~
Grady learned from his memories that there was a knife shop in New York's Chinatown, and if he was willing to pay for it, he could also pick up some knives made of special steel.
That's why Grady would advise his family to go to Chinatown.
So, on Saturday, the Parkers went to Chinatown, and Grady was allowed half an hour to leave the group for free time because of his age.
So, in this half hour, Grady spent more than a hundred dollars to get a bright silver short sword with a handle that was only eighty centimeters long.
Grady didn't know much about the steel, but he had tried the quality of the dagger, the standard safety helmet, and Grady could completely split it with the dagger.
Then Grady bought another bottle of black spray paint, which is the kind of spray paint that is hard to wipe off.
The spray paint and dagger were handed to the Shadow Golem, who sank into Grady's shadow with the object in his arms.
This is a new feature that Grady has discovered for the Shadow Golem, which can be used as a storage chest.
As long as you are completely wrapped in the shadow puppet, you can enter Grady's shadow, and no one else would have imagined that there will be a short sword in Grady's shadow.
That's why Grady buys these dangerous items while he's playing with his family.
In fact, Grady didn't think about buying a gun, but he didn't have enough money, plus he was under age, he could have a driver's license at the age of sixteen, but he couldn't legally hold a gun, so he naturally couldn't buy a gun. 、
After buying a short sword, Grady bought another children's mask, and the mask was the face of the Monkey King, after all, he bought it in Chinatown.
In addition to the mask, Grady also bought a voice changer.
It's a gadget that can be bought everywhere in New York, it's cheap, and it's almost standard for slightly smarter vigilantes.
Finally, before leaving Chinatown, Grady bought another box of razors, the kind of blades that are very thin and sharp for shaving.
It cost Grady a total of one hundred and fifty dollars for these things, so that he was left with only about eight hundred and fifty dollars.
So, after returning home on Sunday and having a brief dinner with his family, Grady went back to his room, locked the door, and began to organize his gear.
He took out the spray paint and sprayed all the short swords black, and after thinking about it, Grady sprayed a faint black mist on Goku's mask again, making the mask look like Shadow Goku.
After disposing of the dagger and mask, Grady put on the voice changer and tried it, and the slightly magnetic voice of his original adolescent boy immediately turned into a deep middle-aged male voice.
"Hey, it's so easy to use!" Grady whistled, then took off the voice changer and placed it on the table.
It was past eight o'clock, and although the adoptive parents had already slept, Grady was not prepared to leave now, he had to wait until eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening to go out.
Before that, he plans to get some sleep.
This will not only provide some sleep supplements for staying up late at night, but also not let the family worry about themselves.
Because when Mei wakes up at night, she may come to her room to cover the quilt for herself.
With the dagger, mask, blade, and voice changer in the drawer, Grady used his phone to set the alarm for 11 p.m., and then went to bed.
Before going to bed, Grady controls the Shadow Golem to unlock the door.
In the past two days, despite playing, Grady has been able to use the skills he has gained from the Legacy proficiently. And, not only can he use it himself, but Grady can also drive the Shadow Golem to use it.
Therefore, he felt that in the future, he might be able to fight without having to do it himself!
Jingle bell~~~
The alarm sounded, and Grady woke up rubbing his eyes, and then saw the hazy morning glow outside the window in horror.
It's red, it's glaring.
“WTF? I overslept?! "When I looked at the clock on the wall, the time was six o'clock in the morning.
Dangdang~
There was a knock on the door, and then the door was opened.
"Honey, it's time to get up!" May's voice came, "Peter has already started to wash, if you are willing to lose to your brother who is nine years younger than you, stay in bed!" ”
"Alright! Mom, I'll get up. Grady replied helplessly, he really didn't expect that he would oversleep and sleep until dawn.
Thinking like this, Grady wanted to sit up, get dressed, get out of bed, wash, eat, and go to school, and as for the money, he had to wait until tonight.
But at this moment, Grady found that he was lying in bed, unable to get up.
Ghost Press?!!
I also want (ˉεˉ乀) kind of (๑ ́ڡ'๑) tickets~
