Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
At noon, Hodge had lunch at Connors' house at his invitation, but after eating, Hodge got up and said goodbye to Connors with a reluctant expression.
There's no way, it's okay for you to let Hodge talk about it, it's really a shame to really come into contact with these creatures, and when the time comes, if he sees any flaws, his plan will be in vain.
So, after eating, Hodge told Connors that he had something to leave, and ran out of his house in one go.
After running out of Connors's house, Hodge patted his head and remembered that he seemed to have skipped class......
Looking up at the sun hanging high in the sky, emitting heat, Hodge thought about it and decided to go outside, after all, he hadn't been out for a long time, and Hodge suddenly felt that he should also find a job.
After all, it is not Hodge's own character to use the family's money all the time, although Hodge was a house in his previous life, he spent all the money with his own hands.
However, Hodge suddenly realized that since he came to this world, he had not gone out to spend, and Lisa had bought clothes for him, and he ate either at school or at home.
Even if he lived independently outside for a while, Lisa took him to eat most of the meals.
And in the past, he lived in a simple house, and basically didn't go out except to buy some 'necessary' things, even if he ate food, he ordered takeout.
But after arriving in this world, Hodge did not have such a life.
Why? Because this world is indeed very technological, much more advanced than in the previous life, but the online games here are simply unplayable, and it should be said that Hodge can't play.
The games of this world are more than a notch better than the games of the previous life in terms of graphics and quality, but Hodge can't play them, why?
Because it's too complicated......
Games are meant to be entertaining, so are they so complex and effortless to play? Do people here like to show off their superiority in terms of intelligence?
Anyway, no matter what others think, Hodge is loveless for those complicated games.
That's why Hodge didn't stay at home as single-mindedly as before, and was at ease in his own dead house.
Shaking his head, he put aside the messy thoughts in his head, since he had made up his mind to find a job, he should buy a newspaper first, because he couldn't do full-time yet, he could only work part-time, after all, he still had a student status, and most of the jobs published in the newspaper were part-time jobs.
With his goal in mind, Hodge hurriedly ran to the newsstand at the intersection and bought a newspaper.
Clarion Daily, looking at this newspaper, Hodge frowned, and involuntarily thought of a person in his mind, certainly not our Spider-Man Parker.
It's the boss of the newspaper, the stingy, hot-tempered, very venomous guy.
The headline in the newspapers was 'Spider-Man: The Source of Evil!' ’
The content is roughly to say that wherever Spider-Man appears, there will be criminals, anyway, it is to reverse right and wrong and criticize Spider-Man for nothing, and he is a pest in New York.
Well, Hodge admires this guy very much, isn't he afraid that those Spider-Man loyalists will smash his newspaper?
Then look down, in the corner of the headline, there is also a small acquisition advertisement, "Three hundred dollars to buy Spider-Man photos", seeing this small advertisement, Hodge was surprised.
Didn't he remember that the Bugle Daily Reporter's Spider-Man photos had always been provided by Parker? Isn't Parker going to be a photographer anymore? Or is there something born in between?
But that's none of his business, let's see what kind of recruitment is available for now.
"Food delivery...... It's too tiring to run around. ”
Editorial reporter...... It seems to be the paparazzi, not interested. ”
Shaking his head, if he likes to watch other people's **, then there is really no place in this world that can not let him appear, of course, it is to give a rough place in advance.
"Translation...... Although I can do it myself, what people want is a portable translator and pass. ”
Over and over again, every part-time job is what Hodge wants, either too tired or too long, Hodge suddenly feels that he is not lazy and not interested in going out to find a part-time job.
Just as Hodge was boredly flipping through the newspaper, but there was no one in front of him, a beautiful golden woman with a pure and lovely face was looking at him with a smile, it was the female classmate Hodge met at school, Melissa.
Melissa saw Hodge reading the newspaper so intently, her good-looking willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, her emerald green eyes turned playfully, and she showed a quirky smile, and then tiptoed towards Hodge.
Melissa approached Hodge, slowly stretched out her hands to the newspaper in Hodge's hand, seeing that Hodge still did not show himself, the corners of her mouth provoked a wicked smile, with a prank on her face that was about to succeed, she was ready to suddenly snatch the newspaper in Hodge's hand when Hodge didn't notice her, and then screamed to scare him.
However, Melissa underestimated Hodge, and when she was just approaching, Hodge noticed it, but when she saw that it was Melissa who was 'tiptoeing' towards her, she was amused in her heart and did not directly debunk her prank, but pretended to know nothing to cooperate with her, and at the same time thought that she would scream to scare her when she approached.
"Hah!" The moment Melissa's hands touched the newspaper in Hodge's hand, Hodge jerked the newspaper down and shouted.
Melissa was taken aback by Hodge's sudden roar, and the whole person fell backwards involuntarily.
Seeing this, Hodge's eyes lit up, and he secretly said in his heart, "Good opportunity!" Then he quickly stretched out his hands and hugged Melissa, who was leaning back.
Started with a warm and silky, a faint fragrance passed from Melissa's body into Hodge's nose, which made Hodge's heart can't help but be hot, two virgins, the first time to hold a girl!
Hodge was almost excited, and shouted in praise of God's eyes!!
Sure enough, you can't touch your sister paper at home, so you have to go out more in the future! Feeling the warm fragrance of nephrite in his arms, such thoughts flashed through Hodge's mind.
Compared with Hodge's inner excitement, Melissa was also shy, and being hugged like this by a boy for the first time made two red clouds suddenly fly on her fair cheeks, which was very beautiful.
"Yes...... Can it be released? Halfway through, Melissa saw that Hodge was still holding herself, and spoke out of reservedness, her voice thin and soft, very tired.
"Oh! Oh! Looking at Melissa's shy appearance, Hodge nodded hurriedly, withdrew his hands in embarrassment, and looked at the beauty in front of him stupidly.
Seeing Hodge staring at himself stupidly, just like when school had just started, Melissa laughed coquettishly, and her original shyness disappeared, and said with a smile: "Do I have flowers on my face?" ”
"No, no, you're so beautiful today." Looking at Melissa with a smile on her face, Hodge began to stutter again, and at the same time secretly anxious in his heart, what happened to him, wasn't it good last time.
"Yes, thank you." Melissa was not shy about Hodge's compliment, but accepted it generously.
Hodge looked at the smiling Melissa, opened his mouth, his brain went blank, he didn't know what to say, and for a while the two of them reached the point where they had nothing to say.
Faced with such a situation, although Hodge was anxious, he just couldn't think of what to say, tell jokes? The mind is full of meat jokes, and the consequences of saying it are unimaginable.
Say hello? It's an idiot......
Just when Hodge was secretly anxious, Melissa spoke first and asked curiously, "I haven't seen you at school lately, what are you busy with?" ”
Hearing Melissa's doubts, Hodge sighed at how he had failed so much, but replied anyway, "I'm working on something with Dr. Connors." ”
Hodge opened his mouth and said nonsense, he can't say that he has been idle and bored watching TV in the past few days, and then went to fight the little monster again?
Even Hodge himself didn't know why he was lying, probably because men would unconsciously prove their excellence in front of the girls they liked.
"Oh! No wonder they can't see you. Regarding Hodge's words, Melissa did not doubt him, and nodded her little head to show that she understood.
Looking at Melissa, who had already understood, Hodge secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and wiped a cold sweat without a trace, it turned out that he was also a master who could lie and brag.
"What are you going to do?" In order to prevent Melissa from breaking the casserole and asking the end later, Hodge hurriedly changed the subject.
"Buy some books and clothes." Melissa stretched out a hand and pinched her delicate chin, thinking for a moment.
"Then I'll go with you!" As soon as he heard Melissa say this, Hodge hurriedly offered his courtesy, but he was only halfway through his words, when he heard a loud explosion not far in front of the two of them, interrupting Hodge's words.
"Bang!"
Shattered glass swept out of a jewelry store and washed out of the street with dust.
Hodge and Melissa turned their heads to look forward together, and in the dust, a man wearing a black baseball cap and a gray trench coat with a pale face like a dead corpse walked out of the jewelry store calmly with a cloth bag in his hand.
Then, in the surprised eyes of the two, it suddenly turned into a cloud of green smoke and disappeared......
Looking at the man who disappeared abruptly, Hodge and Melissa glanced at each other, and both saw the shock in each other's eyes.
Melissa was really shocked by the man's weirdness, and Hodge was shocked at the man's audacity......
