Chapter 40: The Newbie Village
At night, Li Huan was woken up by the alarm clock and hurried downstairs to work. Thankfully, he still has a modern artifact like an alarm clock in his house.
Mrs. Chen handed a bunch of keys to Li Huan and instructed, "Lee, if there are many people on the street at night, you should lock the door, turn off the lights, and wait until I come in the morning." ”
Li Huan took the key and nodded understandingly, he knew that there were many gangs in big cities in the United States, and the city at night was a paradise for them to party.
"Also, if someone points a gun at you, you raise your hand, and you give him whatever he wants, without any hesitation, nothing is more precious than life."
Mrs. Chen's face was not very good, and she should have seen the darkness behind the prosperity of the city often.
Li Huan still nodded, he didn't have any skills now, how could he dare to fight against gunmen.
Mrs. Chen left after giving instructions, and heard her say that she was going home to prepare dinner for her nephew who came to study abroad, which is why things that could be done by one person in the past now have to hire a buddy.
Li Huan sat down on a stool behind the cash register and turned on the computer comfortably.
More money and less things close to home! I didn't expect the ultimate wish of the new urban youth to come true so simply.
He opened the webpage at random, first registered a few members of the social networking site, no matter which world this is, since there is the Internet, then pay attention, you can always find familiar clues.
An hour or two passed quickly, and there were a lot fewer overtime dogs who came to the supermarket to buy fast food.
Li Huan also made a major discovery on the Internet, and many New York Facebook users shared their photos of Spider-Man, swinging around the building, lying on the roof of the criminal's car, and picking up the trapped little girl from the burning building...... With all sorts of Spider-Man appearing in people's shots, it's no wonder that New Yorkers call him a good neighbor.
Isn't this the spider man of the novice village head of a certain comic?
Li Huan's first thought was to find the genetically modified spider that had bitten Peter Parker, and give himself a bite, and his combat power immediately soared.
But then he denied the idea, not to mention whether the spider toxins could be perfectly combined with his genes, he couldn't go to New York at all.
The mission limits the scope of activity to the San Francisco area.
And the spider that bit Peter didn't know which trash can it had been swept into.
This is very embarrassing, guarding Baoshan empty, and you can't get it if you can't get it.
Just as Li Huan was thinking hard about how to do something, a rugged-looking sturdy man walked in.
He didn't go directly to the shelves to pick up the goods, but stopped at the cashier, looked at Li Huan, and said, "Come and pack cigarettes, don't forget the change." ”
Li Huan followed the direction of his finger, took a pack of cigarettes he didn't know and put it on the counter, waiting for the other party to pay for it, so he could make change.
"And change." The man pointed to Li Huan's cash register and motioned for him to give him the change.
"Huh?"
What is this, robbery?
Li Huan was a little confused, "I don't quite understand what you mean." ”
"Let's go."
The stout man took out an M92 pistol from his back waist, and looked at the protruding part of the magazine to know that it was a modified gun, holding the pistol horizontally and holding it above his head, looking very arrogant.
"I said, give me the change." He said word by word, his eyes were indifferent, as if he was looking at a roast chicken.
Li Huan immediately understood that the words this man said did not mean change, but cash, and he was robbed on the street at all, no wonder Mrs. Chen told him that when he met someone with a gun, he would give what he wanted.
Maybe someone in other shops in San Francisco has resisted, and the end must have been miserable.
"Yes, yes, sir." Li Huan hurriedly clicked on the cash register, took out all the dollars and coins he received tonight, and put them on the table one by one.
Seeing Li Huan so cooperative, the strong man knew that today's money was stable, so he directly put away the pistol and picked up the money on the table one by one.
Li Huan subconsciously looked at the camera in the corner, he had to make sure that this scene was filmed in its entirety, otherwise he would be robbed on the first day of work, and he didn't know if he would be suspected.
The sturdy man just finished picking up the money, and when he saw Li Huan's sneaky eyes, he sneered and said, "Don't look at it, I'm not afraid of that kind of thing at all, it's useless for the police to come, they don't care about this kind of thing at all." ”
Li Huan said in his heart, I didn't show it to the police, I showed it to Mrs. Chen.
This man is so arrogant, I'm afraid that many stores don't want to call the police at all, it's just a night's income, and if they call the police, the money may be more than that.
The stout man walked out of the supermarket slowly, and by the way, he took two boxes of fast food, which of course were counted among the robberies.
Li Huan's eyes turned to the computer screen, which was the scene of the little spider catching the robbery thugs on the street and being surrounded by the crowd and applauding.
Perhaps it is this social environment that allows superheroes to come into being.
In the morning, Mrs. Chen came to the store, and Li Huan showed her the footage captured by the surveillance camera.
Mrs. Chen sighed: "Alas, you encountered this kind of thing on your first day at work, I hope you don't get scared." ”
Li Huan shook his head and said regretfully: "I'm fine, I just think that no one cares about them, it's too annoying." ”
Mrs. Chen looked at Li Huan with satisfaction: "If you don't have impulsiveness, I'm very happy, in the past few years, I don't remember how many times I heard about my colleagues being shot." That's not realistic, without these people, how can people use credit cards when they go out to buy things? ”
Because you want people to get used to going out without cash and only using credit cards, so let the street thugs rob cash everywhere?
This reassuring logic actually exists.
Whether this is the case or not, exaggerated or distorted, Li Huan can only judge by his own experience - it is indeed terrible.
After staying up all night, Li Huan brought some food upstairs to sleep.
After a few days, he realized that he couldn't go out to find a martial arts gym or a security company to train himself with such a lifestyle.
It's no wonder that night dogs rarely have a presence, they don't show up at all during the day.
In the past few nights, Li Huan has searched all the news reports and social comments related to Spider-Man, and found that this world is not a certain movie universe, there is no Iron Man, there is no Captain America, but there is a comic book with Superman that is more popular.
That said, it's likely that there's nothing good like Infinity Stones at all.
He also summarized Spider-Man's enemies in New York, the Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus have not yet appeared, and I don't know if they will appear again.
Could it be that this is a single-hero competitive world?
Think about it, if there is only one Spider-Man in this world with superpowers, can he stop crime until he grows old?
Can the crime rate really be reduced and everyone can live and work in peace and contentment?
