Chapter 32: Flickering

Optimus Prime's assurance, a little comforted Sam who was messed up in his heart. Li Qi knows very well that this young man, who has just turned 19 years old, is at this moment in the period when his outlook on life, values, and worldview are fixed, and he has experienced too many things. made this young male protagonist confused.

I'm afraid that this kind of thing will happen to anyone.

"It's not too early, I'm going back, Sam, Li Qi, good luck to you."

Optimus Prime looked at the situation in the distance, and then Sam waved goodbye. It was the same black GM SUV again, with a hologram of a simulated driver on the seat, and then flashed its lights a few times before leaving the area and heading for the airport.

Watching Optimus Prime's figure disappear into the vast traffic, Sam came back to his senses, and then said a little embarrassed to Li Qi.

"Sorry, I got distracted."

"It's fine."

Li Qi waved his hand, and Sam also figured it out at the moment. Since you can't get rid of these troubles, you can simply go with the flow and treat it as tourism.

Seeing that things were gone, Sam's heart was much smoother, and he had other thoughts, he looked around, but he didn't see any luggage or anything like that.

I couldn't help but wonder, "Li Qi, where is your luggage?" ”

"I don't need luggage."

Li Qi grinned, and when he left, Li Qi got a Swiss bank card from where the iron sheet was.

There are hundreds of thousands of dollars on it, this is the loot that Iron Hide used to loot from a certain Decepticon, and I don't know how the Decepticon got it, and no one has taken the money in it, because there is no way to go to the bank to withdraw money, this bank card has been thrown on Iron Skin's body.

Occasionally, of course, Ironhide would ask Lennos to help him get some money from the card to buy himself some good paint and dress himself up.

"Without luggage, where do you stay? Uh, or rather, you're a student at this school too? ”

Sam asked tentatively, Li Qi's body gave him an impenetrable aura.

"No, I'll rent a house near the school, it's not too far away, you can just go to me if you encounter something."

Li Qi thought about it for a while and said, he doesn't have the status of a college student, and there are too many restrictions after sneaking into the university, where is the freedom to rent a house outside.

"I see, do you need my help, I can ask my classmates about the cheaper houses there, this is a university town, and if there are students who introduce you, the rent can be much cheaper."

Sam is eager to try, like the American teenagers left and right, they have been cultivated to live independently since they were young, and their parents borrowed money to spend, AA system, which also made Sam live a little tight life, except for this Bumblebee that cost $4,000 to buy, Sam has nothing of value on him.

"Then I'll say thank you in advance."

"Ha, haha, it's okay, it's just a gesture."

Li Qi did not object, which immediately won Sam's favor, and he took the initiative to show his worth,

Click, click!

Bumblebee saw that Sam and Li Qi had established a good relationship, and he was relieved, and turned back into the Chevrolet Camaro, after he reported the fragments to Optimus Prime last time, he learned that Optimus Prime was going to send a new member of the lair force to protect Sam, and he was still a little worried, but now it seems that there is nothing to do.

Humans are of course more likely to understand the human mind than Autobots.

"Let's get in the car first, I'll take you to the school, if you hurry, we should be able to get the house done today."

Sam happily took Li Qi into the car, and it was not the first time that Li Qi had ridden in a Transformers car, so there was nothing to be afraid of, after getting in the car, Bumblebee drove automatically and headed towards the University of Pennsylvania.

Along the way, Sam kept telling Li Qi about the changes in the earth and the changes around him in the past few years. Decepticon variations.

"I understand. Optimus Prime: They also told me. Li Qi replied with a smile. Sam's words were like the rushing Yellow River, and Li Qi couldn't stand it anymore.

“…… Here is FM99.8 Philadelphia Music Channel...... Hey Judy~”

Bumblebee sang coldly, it seemed to be a music channel reprinted from the Internet, as if he felt that the atmosphere in the car was not quite right, this little guy who likes to sell cuteness has learned to observe words and looks.

Sam's sudden voice startled, and Li Qi was also quite surprised. Then he hummed along with the song: "The song of the earth is just pleasant to the ear!" ”

"Uh-huh. I think too. Sam also began to immerse himself in the beat of the music, and finally ended the topic that he had just listened to a little boring. It made Li Qi a little happy.

But apparently Sam could only hold back for a while, and after a while, Sam opened up the conversation again.

"That's right. Why did you come back to Earth? How's your home going? Li Qi stroked his forehead silently.

"My planet is already at peace. I want to protect the planet and protect our common home. You are my friends. ”

"I'm glad you're back." Sam sighed. With Li Qi's next troubles, he may have a smoother life. At least it won't be borrowed by the Decepticons, after all, Li Qi is a very strong existence.

"How happy I am, I don't want to leave ......"

Bumblebee cut another song, and they sang all the way to the University of Pennsylvania.

The University of Pennsylvania, one of the eight Ivy League schools, the fourth-oldest institution of higher education in the United States, and the first university in the truly modern sense of the United States, was founded in 1740. Franklin, the scientist who did the lightning experiment with a kite tied to a key, was the founder of the school.

Most of the students who can be admitted to such a university are the best in their studies, so after Sam got the admission letter, his father can be said to be pleasantly surprised, which gave him the capital to brag about with his neighbors.

Of course, behind the honor is the expensive tuition, $40,000 a year, which makes Sam's father a little distressed, but he knows very well that his son has a bright future, although he got involved with aliens in high school, but he is also a serious college student.

Being admitted to the University of Pennsylvania is also something that Sam is proud of, so he is very enthusiastic and wants to show it in front of Li Qi.

"Li Qi, you see, this is Benjamin. A bronze statue of Benjamin Franklin, the founder of the school, who was a great scientist and statesman. ”

After arriving at the school, Sam and Li Qi get out of the car, and Bumblebee drives back to Michaela on her own, with shards in her hands that could attract the attention of the Decepticons at any moment.
