Chapter Seventy-Six: The Horror of the Driver's License Test (Minor Revision)
"Shuya, let's go, we have an appointment for the morning exam today." Duke looked at Shu Ya and said cautiously. Today is the day when he and Shu Ya go to the road test, and Shu Ya was very happy, but when he contacted him before, he heard whose car he was taking, and his face was a little difficult to look at.
No way, who made the rules of the driver's license test more unique, the first step is easy to say, it is a written test of traffic regulations, and after passing the written test, you can get a driving license or something, and you can do it yourself. However, the second step of the road test is troublesome, and a supervisor with more than one year of driving experience in the United States is required to prepare his own car for the test.
Originally, it would be a matter of spending some money to find a driving school in Boston, but there are very few driving schools in this old United States, you think that a serious American family who doesn't have a car, a sixteen-year-old young man can take the test and get a driver's license, who is not taught by the family in the yard, who has the kung fu to go to the driving school?
There is no soil for driving schools to survive, so it is not easy to find a driving school in Cambridge. Originally, Duke heard that Chinatown exists, but this Chinatown is not close to MIT, and I heard that there are one or two of them, mainly for immigrant customers from the mainland, and this business is indeed not much. After Duke and Shuya passed the written exam, they didn't have time to find it, and somehow Suzanne heard about it, but this girl was enthusiastic and offered to Duke to be his supervisor. Of course, Duke has no reason to refuse this kind of thing, how to say that the two still have a little friendship left by the interview.
Duke also took the opportunity to propose Shuya's supervisor, and Susanna, who was cheerful, agreed.
But as soon as Duke talked to Shu Ya about this, Shu Ya was a little unhappy. Of course, it is not very pleasant for any woman to watch another woman be courteous to her new boyfriend. Especially this woman has a little ambiguous relationship with Duke.
But Duke took her with him, showing that he was open in his heart, and Shu Ya still didn't agree to this matter, which was a little too hypocritical.
Rao is like this, when it was really the day of the exam, when Duke came to call, Shu Ya was still a little uncomfortable.
Of course, Duke also unmistakably received Shu Ya's dissatisfaction, and with his current emotional intelligence, he also knew that this matter was indeed a little wrong with him, which was a lesson. "After the test and get the driver's license, we will go and buy a car, you have the final say." Duke said with a smile. Since I made a mistake in the previous step, I can't go on to make a mistake in this second step.
"Don't take it as an example." Shu Ya saw that Duke's attitude was quite correct, and it seemed that he had realized his mistake, so she packed up her mood and went downstairs hand in hand with Duke.
"Hi Miss Suzanne, I've been so much trouble today." Shu Ya smiled sweetly at Suzanne inside the orange beetle. Duke looked at Shu Ya's innocent appearance, and couldn't help but sigh No wonder some people say that every woman is an Oscar-winning actress, and this is honest and does not deceive me.
"It's okay, it's just a gesture, do you want to get familiar with the car? Anyway, if you have a study license, you can drive directly to the test venue. Suzanne smiled slightly.
"No, in fact, when I was in China, I already had some driving experience for a while, so it shouldn't be a big problem. What's more, you are familiar with the terrain here, so we don't have to be late. Shuya said with a smile, opened the back door, and sat in the back seat with Duke.
When I arrived at the examination room, due to the advance appointment, it was Shuya's turn to take the exam soon after I arrived.
Compared with the domestic driver's license test, the test in the United States is much simpler, and there are not so many tricks at all, because for a nation that can take the test at the age of 16 and go on the road alone, driving is as natural as their breathing, and there is no need to use the test to embarrass everyone. Therefore, it is quite easy for Shu Ya, who has driving experience, and there is no language barrier, so you only need to follow the instructions of the examiner to complete a few prescribed actions. Therefore, Shuya passed the exam very smoothly.
It was Duke's turn to get in the car. To be honest, Duke is not as confident as Shu Ya, after all, he does not have many opportunities to get serious in China. Fortunately, Suzanne's car is an automatic transmission, so there is no need to worry about shifting gears, and Duke remembers a few gears very well. So when the examiner asked him about his familiarity with the various parts of the car, Duke answered flawlessly.
Just as Duke was glad that he had answered the question well, the examiner suddenly asked how to use his arm to signal to the car behind you to turn left, turn right or prepare to stop when the turn signal failed.
Duke was immediately dumbfounded, this extreme situation will definitely not be asked in the domestic exam, at most he will play double flashes and pull aside, with his arms? Please, big brother, brother doesn't pedal manpower three wheels, have you ever seen a driver on the street stretch out a hand to indicate the direction?
Okay, turn left, Duke guesses that it should be fine to reach out from the window on the left and wave it, but what about turning right? Who's arm long enough to reach out to the window on the right?
There was no way, Duke had to honestly say that turning right and parking was really not knowing how to compare gestures. He said it very sincerely, and when he got into the car, he had already introduced himself very cleverly, obviously the title of MIT doctor was still very haloous, and the examiner told him the answer very reasonably: turn right or stretch out your left arm, but you have to bend up, and bend down is to stop.
This episode hit Duke harder, so that in the process of driving in the regular action later, the action was a little jerky, fortunately, there was no big mistake, and when he turned back to the starting point and got off, Duke himself was a little apprehensive when waiting for the examiner's conclusion, according to domestic experience, the examiner had little chance of letting him go today, although it was said that there was no big loss for Duke, and it would be okay to come back after a while, anyway, there would be no charge for one more test. It's just that today in front of the two beauties, he didn't take the test, which really damaged his reputation as a genius.
"Pass." The examiner spat out the word kindly and kindly patted Duke on the shoulder. When Duke heard this result, a stone fell to his heart, "Thank you very much!" Duke was grateful. I knew in my heart that today's examiner might have shown mercy to him for the sake of his MIT Ph.D.
But anyway, it's over.
While waiting to get their temporary driver's licenses, the three of them sat comfortably on the couch and chatted.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and Duke, who was sitting on the right side of the sofa, saw a car crash through the glass curtain wall of the lounge hall and came directly to the sofa where Shuya and Suzanne were sitting! At the moment, the distance between the two is only a few meters.
"Be careful!" Duke shouted, the fierce fish jumped out, pounced on Shuya and Susanna, grabbed one of their hands and then desperately pulled back, at this fateful moment, Duke actually dragged the two beauties from the sofa, and then fell heavily on the sofa where Duke was originally sitting, and at this moment, the out-of-control car crashed in, directly hitting the sofa that Shuya and Suzanne were sitting on just now! The car then made a sharp braking sound, braking hard before crashing into another group of people.
"Ah" Countless screams sounded at the same time, Shuya and Suzanne escaped death, and the two of them didn't have any strength in their bodies, so they pressed Duke.
Duke snorted, feeling the pain in his arm like a crack, thinking that it was just because he used too much force to dislocate his arm, and now he was pressed down by two beauties, although this is definitely a rare fragrant enjoyment in normal times, but at this moment, this taste is too much for Duke to bear.
Enduring the severe pain, Duke broke out in a cold sweat on his head, but he couldn't move, the two beauties haven't regained their strength yet, and Duke, who has lost his strength in both arms, is only so painful and happy.
Fortunately, the other people who did not have an accident rescued quickly, discovered the predicament of the three Dukes, and pulled up the depressed Shu Ya and Susanna, looking at the hands of Duke who were pulled up, Shu Ya was the first to react, "Duke!" Shu Ya let out a heart-rending cry, thinking that Duke's arm was crippled, remembering that the sofa was broken into two pieces just now, if Duke hadn't risked his life to save him, he and Suzanne would not be dead or disabled, Shu Ya's heart was even more heartbroken.
Suzanne hugged her chest tightly with both hands, her originally white face was even more bloodless, and the mixture of fear and gratitude made Suzanne completely at a loss, only to see the bean-sized tears rolling down her face.
"Miss, this gentleman should have dislocated, go to the hospital to pick up the general and be fine for a while." An experienced guard examined Duke's injuries a little and said to Shuya and Susanna. "Rescue vehicles will be coming soon, don't worry too much."
"Shuya, Susanna, I'm fine." Duke saw that the two beauties were as sad as pear blossoms with rain, and walked forward to comfort him with severe pain, he wanted to show a smile, but as soon as his lips were upturned, he was hit by a sharp pain, which made his face even more ugly.
The ambulance arrived quickly, and the rescue doctor preliminarily checked Duke's arm, and the conclusion was basically the same as that of the guard, so he quickly connected Duke's arm, but what happened to Duke's arm, it had to go to the hospital to take an X-ray before it could be diagnosed, but after the arm was connected, Duke was much more relaxed, at least the sharp pain in the heart disappeared.
Strange to say, Duke was the only one injured in this sudden disaster. Including the new driver who used the accelerator as a brake in the driving accident, the others were unscathed.
Is this retribution? After Duke lying in the ambulance, he escaped death and remembered the two beautiful women who had just been heartbroken for themselves, and such an idea actually came to him.
