Chapter Forty-Five: The Ship of Holoca
"But it doesn't work out as you hope." Roger sighed softly.
"In New New York, my cousins take me to parties every day to drink and hang out with girls." He muttered.
"Bubble ...... Roger: How old were you then? Jonny asked, surprised.
"You're in your early fourteens." Roger replied looking at the roof of the car.
"Oh, that explains a lot." Jonny nodded.
"What is explained?" Roger asked him with a strange tilt.
"Nothing, you continue." Jonny said hurriedly.
“…… Anyway, I was drunk and dreaming of my cousins who were just having fun, and I never thought about anything at home, which seems very selfish now, right? ”
Seeing that Jonny was silent, Roger added: "It wasn't until the news of Grandpa's death came that I suddenly woke up, at that time I never thought about the feelings of my family, and I didn't expect such consequences at all, and the servant later told me that Grandpa was sick and died soon after." ”
"The old man has always been strong and energetic, and for as long as he can remember, he has never allowed anyone to disobey him, but when it comes to disobedience, I don't think I'm the first." Roger smiled wryly.
"Your father...... Where was he then? It's the first time Jonny has found out that Roger is showing his true feelings to anyone, he's never heard him talk about his family since he met him, and why was he raised by his grandfather?
Roger closed his eyes and shook his head, "You don't know, Johnny, my father, he's a man who only cares about himself......" He frowned at this point, unwilling to say any more.
"So your grandfather has put the family's hopes on you." Jonny seemed to get some of it.
Roger was noncommittal and continued: "After my grandfather died, I came to Chilian, and I just wanted to play rugby well, and I wanted to prove to my grandfather that I was different from my father, even if I didn't become a soldier, I could still win glory for the family. ”
Hearing this, Jonny finally understood why Roger went to practice as soon as he got out of school, and always left late, the last time he watched him play, he always had a faint sense of ruthlessness.
Focused on his ideals, hard-working and talented, he has become the best of the running positions at a young age, and as a freshman in his first year, he has been entrusted with the task of becoming a natural starter by the team, and has the support and trust of his senior team-mates.
The flying car followed the guiding beam, speeding all the way along the main hub of the city, and soon turned around, heading towards the northwest corner of Wenzhi City, the two people in the car fell into silence for a while, Roger's eyes were always on the roof of the car, not knowing what he was thinking, after a while, he suddenly said: "Jonny, I think, maybe you can't be a quarterback." ”
"Huh? Why. "Jonny didn't expect him to suddenly turn to this thing.
"Because we already have a good quarterback, his father is a yellow-skinned feather man, and he immigrated from Falkus to Chilian because he was transferred to the second fleet of the Silver Alliance, his name is Chen Tianfang, and sometimes he is quite a kind person." There was a kind of 'I'll see you another day' in Roger's words.
"Then you say I can be a quarterback, and if I already have one, what position will I play in the team?" Jonny asked curiously.
"You're too thin, and your defense is definitely not good, or you can play as a striker like me? No, no, the runner must also be able to resist, you see that the wind blows and it falls apart. Roger shook his head with his arms on his back, while Jonny let Roger continue to play with a bitter face.
"Are you fast?" Roger asked solemnly.
"Me? Generally. Jonny said, he really didn't know how fast he could run.
"Then you won't be able to do an outshoot." Roger flattened his mouth.
"So what's left?" Jonny asked with a smile.
"How's your ball?" Roger blinked.
"Does rugby need to be played too? I think I can try this. Jonny remembered the football he used to play as a child.
"Forget it, that's a technical job, and I guess you're no better than our team. Jordan played even better, and he was the ace forward of the Byerley junior soccer team in junior high school. Roger dismissed the idea again.
"Either you should be a full-time ball lifter, originally a quarterback and a quarterback, I'll talk to Coach Watt and decompress the day, you will be full-time." He said with a sudden raised eyebrow.
"What is a ball holder?" Jonny really didn't know anything about rugby.
"Rugby isn't oval, you have to have someone hold the ball steady for the kicker to kick." Roger explained.
"Oh, what a supporter." Hearing this explanation, Jonny was a little distracted.
"Not really." Roger looks very serious.
"Roger, I think it's happier to be a bookworm, and I think I'll leave it at that." Jonny suddenly felt that this was becoming more and more unreliable.
"You're so beautiful, follow me to Coach Walter to report on vacation!" Roger said angrily.
……
"This is Haolejia?" Jonny couldn't believe his eyes as he pointed to the behemoth in front of him, in front of him, this huge shopping mall made of gray ethylpeptide metal shell, hundreds of meters high, and the area of the building was even more astonishing, and what surprised him the most was the thick propulsion base on both sides of the building, the tower bridge that reached into the sky, and the two metal wings that had been folded, making people reverie the majesty once they were fully unfolded.
"Holojia Mall...... It's actually a ...... Spaceship? Jonny was so surprised that he could barely keep his mouth shut.
"It's a spaceship? Don't be kidding, Johnny, even the kindergarten children know that Holojia is a spaceship. Roger stared at Jonny in bewilderment, and secretly accused the serious shortcomings of family education, the family was so sloppy, you see that his son was taught to ignore even these basic common sense.
"It'...... Can it fly? Jonny looked up at the sky, wondering what it would be like to enter it and launch into the sky.
"Don't be fooled by its appearance, Jonny, this is a true Titan-class starship, not only can he lift off in most of the planetary atmospheres of the Silver Alliance, but he also has a mothership-class Migration Engine, with this engine, they can travel long distances, through star gates, and they can reach the end of the Silver Alliance in a short time."
Roger's family background seems to be somewhat dabbled in space navigation, and he also followed Jonny at this time, looking up at the tower-like bridge above the bilge of the Hollywood shopping mall, and the warning lights on it were faintly like fireflies, but they flashed in the night sky.
