Chapter 1315: New York is so small
"Petty, Petty! Have you heard? ”
“。。。”
“。。 Yes? Ha? ”
The girl named Petty raised her face in confusion from the vast sea of books, looking confused, and it didn't look like she hadn't heard the other party's call at all. It's more like not waking up at all.
The person who called her, her good friend Hallie, rolled her eyes helplessly.
"I told you that this is not good, don't study every day, you will become a nerd."
Petty didn't know what to say, so she just smirked at Harley.
Seeing this, Harley rolled her eyes again, and sometimes. She really thinks that her good friend is one of the prototypes of the ugly Betty.
Betty, Petty, the pronunciation of their names is a little worse, and not only that, they also wear stupid heavy black-rimmed glasses, slow and cowardly personalities, and their appearance is not good.
If it weren't for the fact that Petty was smarter than that Betty, and smarter than most people, she didn't wear braces, and she didn't have freckles on her face, although she was also not good-looking, and she was slightly baby fat, but in general it couldn't be considered bad, and Harley even thought that Petty was Betty!
But.. Either way, this was a good friend of hers, and Harley couldn't say anything so hurtful.
With a sigh, Hallie patted her on the shoulder.
"I'm going to dress you up again when I'm out shopping on the weekend."
"Huh?"
Petty was slightly stunned for a moment.
Seeing this, Harley rolled her eyes again and did not speak.
And Petty, who was next to her, showed a smirk when she saw Harley's helplessness.
Petty knew what her friend meant, because according to Hallie. It's easy to deduce that it's not the first time that her good friend Hallie has worried about her dress.
Whenever Hallie despairs of Petty's appearance, she gives her a wordless pat on the shoulder and tells her to go shopping on the weekend.
But every time I go shopping, I buy a lot of clothes that were very beautiful to wear at the time. Petty can wear them in her usual outfits to look like a decrepit girl.
I have to say, this is also a talent.
How many times did Hallie break the jar and say that she would never choose clothes for Petty again, but in the end... She still hasn't given up on treating her good friend.
Petty is not stupid, as the first in her class, she knows her best friend, Hallie, as her real good friend.
Different from yourself.
Hallie is very beautiful, and it can even be said that she is very beautiful, although she is not a beautiful woman, but she is also a rare beauty, and not only that, unlike her own poverty, Hallie is very rich, although she doesn't know what Hallie's family does, but there should be a business of no small size.
This can be seen from her usual expenses, usage, and occasional car pick-ups.
Such a person should not say that among those boys, it should be the existence of the stars, even among the girls, it should be the eldest among the girls, that is, the villain who often appears in colleges and universities, the jealous cheerleader and the like, all the girls are centered on her, and exclude those who sin their classmates.
But.. That's not the case with Hallie.
Hallie is usually very low-key, and no one else in the whole school seems to know that she is rich and beautiful, but only that she is beautiful, after all, her appearance is unstoppable, and it cannot prevent others from finding out.
Only Petty, who is her close friend, knows the hidden wealth behind Harley, but even then, she doesn't know much about Hallie's true background.
Hallie is a low-key girl.,Didn't gang up in the girls' group.,Didn't bully others with her background.,Even if she becomes a friend of an inconspicuous girl like Petty.,She's not here to pull a green leaf or a fundamental idea.,She's just simple.。。 It's just good friends with Petty.
Of course, good friends don't just look at each other, even if they have a natural fate, they also need a process of mutual contact.
At first, Hallie didn't like Petty that much, and even hated her a little, thinking that this silly nerd was very unpopular.
After knowing some trivial things and a certain mutual exchange, she realizes that Petty is not what she seems, and then she realizes that the two are unexpectedly compatible, and this is how they become close friends.
Like everyone else, Hallie usually complains about her studies and the trivial things of life, gossips with Petty, likes those things that ordinary people like, and hates those things that ordinary people hate.
She didn't become like the annoying cheerleader who often appeared in those youth movies because of her good looks and money.
Hallie is Petty's best friend and a good girl.
Looking at Hallie's somewhat helpless and puffed face, Petty showed a smile, "Okay. . . But I don't think there's anything new going on this time. ”
Hallie glared at her, "Don't worry! I specialized in learning clothing matching for a few weeks, and this time. You're going to be a different person! ”
Petty shrugged, Harley had said that more than once.
Seeing that Hallie seemed to be about to be angry with herself, Petty quickly changed the subject, "What did you just want to say?" ”
As soon as she heard this, Harley immediately came to her senses, gossip is an indelible human nature, especially the female high school students who are represented.
"Have you heard? There was a murder in our school! ”
"What?!"
Petty was taken aback.
She was really taken aback, she didn't have any interest in Hallie's so-called big gossip at first, because the big news in Hallie's mouth was often boring little things, but she would also babble about it for a long time.
I didn't expect it this time. Hallie was just waiting for a big news to come out quietly.
"I didn't expect that."
Seeing her friend's surprised look, Hallie was also very proud, she smiled at Petty very complacently, every time those news gossip came to Petty, she was not much surprised, and it also made Hallie very unhappy, and finally pulled back a game.
"It's not worth it if there's a murder. Something to be proud of. Petty couldn't laugh or cry.
"What the hell is going on?"
The pride has also been sold, and Hallie is no longer hiding, "This is what I got from a special source, I heard that the police came to our school in the morning to investigate and collect evidence, because of a student. . . Died in Hell's Kitchen. ”
"Robbery, gun*, I heard that it seems to be a mistakenly wounded by the murderer in a panic."
This time it was Petty's turn to roll her eyes, I heard that she could hear it in such detail, and this kind of incident from the police, I'm afraid that the non-parties would not be able to know about it at all.
But Petty also knows some of Hallie's special channels, not to mention her own background, Hallie is also very popular in school.
Hallie's low profile doesn't mean that those boys will ignore her existence, her excellent appearance makes her a well-deserved school flower in Midtown Middle School, and besides, it's an open beauty*, and Hallie is no slower than picking out clothes for Petty.
All kinds of clubs*,Brothers*But it's a major feature of the United States* High School.,Sometimes it directly takes into account the role of the student council.,Those boys in order to show themselves in front of Hallie.。。 It's no surprise that Hallie knows anything.
"Hell's Kitchen. It wasn't a homicide in our school, I thought there were dead people in our school. Petty was also relieved.
Although Petty is a scholar, there are more than 10 million scholars in the world, to put it bluntly, she is still an ordinary person, and she will naturally feel scared and worried when she suddenly hears about such a thing.
"But it's really our school."
Harley was a little upset, "It's a girl. . . We're probably still hearing her name. ”
"Oh?" Petty pulled herself together again.
"It's the three of Dave, Torily of the trio."
"I heard that they went to a store near Hell's Kitchen last night to buy something, and then... And then on... Hallie didn't finish, but the meaning was clear.
Petty also fell silent.
Unexpectedly, it was Torly, as Harley said, they had heard of this name, and although they were not friends, they were definitely not strangers.
The three of them are also one of the inconspicuous girls in Midtown Middle School, and unlike those girls with good looks and good personalities, they can start all kinds of passionate love with boys, and girls like them who are not good-looking and introverted are obviously not interested.
So they can only immerse themselves in their own world, find some like-minded friends, and then become more and more homely, and gradually indulge in those things that the so-called dead house likes.
In fact, although Perrie, who is a nerd, is not like a poor student like Dav, who is not good at studying, but in the house, there is no difference between the two.
In addition, Zhongcheng Middle School is so big, and they are all familiar with each other when they come and go.
Petty knows that the three of them like to sit in a comic shop or something after school, read comics, and chat with each other, and this time they go to the edge of Hell's Kitchen block. It's very likely that a new comic shop was also discovered.
But I didn't expect that.
Petty sighed.
"Did the murderer catch him?"
Hallie shook her head, "I don't know, I heard. It seems that it has not been caught yet. ”
Petty sighed again, "I hope we can catch him as soon as possible." ”
Hallie couldn't deny it.
Opening her mouth, Harley was about to say something more when she heard an angry roar from the teacher in front of her.
"Hallie! Osborne! ”
"Petty! Parker! ”
"How long do you want to talk?"
。。。
Hell's Kitchen is more noisy than ever, with large numbers of cops, police cars piled up nearby, flashing police lights forming a pale symphony in the sunlight.
This is not the first time that the police have come to Hell's Kitchen, and as a concentration of New York's criminals*, Hell's Kitchen has always been a high-crime area*.
But unlike those unclaimed thugs, they won't be cared for even if they die on the streets, this time. It was a student from Midtown Middle School who died.
She was still in high school and was just a child.
Even TV dramas rarely show scenes of children dying, not to mention. It is the real death, and the order that has been issued from above in this matter must be thoroughly investigated!
You can't fool around like the death of those gangsters, this thing. There must be an account!
。。。
Through the gap in the curtains, Yi Huan quietly watched the noisy crowd a few blocks away, the police, reporters, and unrelated crowds almost tried to drain the water around the place.
This is not surprising, after all, it has only been a few hours since the murder, and it will be a few days later. Not even a few days later, in a few hours, these people will leave indifferently and forget about it.
But in any case, Yi Huan was glad that Alimond did not directly throw the body out of the door, but put it down a few blocks away, and then did a good job of covering it.
This is much better than Lucy, every time Lucy's work ends very uncleanly, although there are no problems in big things, there are always troubles in small things.
Jebdia is a testament to this.
Fortunately, Yi Huan didn't plan to let go of these high-quality materials, even if she put Jebdia back, she would always be caught back after a while, so she looked for it herself in advance. It doesn't matter.
Of course, you have to be much more cautious about the plans of those superheroes, after all, they are about the future.
Draw the curtains, and sit down leisurely again.
"Isn't Jebdia awake yet?" He asked.
With Yi Huan's question, Lucy silently walked out of a portrait next to her.
"Nope."
She replied, "The transformation of her by the high-latitude energy seems to be mainly in the brain, and this transformation ... It seems to be a little slower and more meticulous than the other transformations. ”
Yi Huan nodded slightly.
"Nobuko Yoshioka."
"She's getting acquainted with her new partner."
Yi Huan turned his head away.
"Hyakki?"
"I don't remember releasing a lot of ghosts."
He stared at Lucy with a suspicious gaze, most likely. She's doing ghost again, after all, she's done similar things more than once, such as bullying Ukihime behind her back, bullying Shanzi behind her back, bullying Sadako, Tomie. Something like that.
"They weren't transformed, they were just released."
"Ukihime, Case Shanzi, Shadow Hime."
"These three kinds of hundred ghosts have the largest number, and even if they are not transformed for the time being, they are still very threatening to ordinary people."
"The Marvel world is not a world for ordinary people." Yi Huan frowned slightly.
The hundred ghosts look very powerful, but as Lucy said, the low-level hundred ghosts can only threaten ordinary people, facing this world where superheroes and black technology are frequent. Maybe you can run into some black technology and be targeted.
"But we don't have to face those superheroes, Hell's Kitchen right now. It's just ordinary people. Lucy replied easily.
This time he didn't deny it, and it was true that he only had Hell's Kitchen open on the map, as evidenced by the location of his shop on the edge of Hell's Kitchen, not next to Stark Tower.
Just like the plot needs to progress little by little, Yi Huan also needs to integrate into the world little by little, rather than turning everything upside down at the beginning.
And now. He seems to have blended in.
"So... S.H.I.E.L.D. should be here too? ”
