Chapter 155: Citibank and Chinatown
Shirakawa tried his skills, and after cleaning up those ruffians in a few moments, he didn't care whether they lived or died, let them fall to the ground and wail, and went back to his parents' house.
When he got home, he went to the bathroom to wash off the dust of the day, and then sat on the couch and watched TV.
Hey, don't really say it, there are really a lot of tricks in this foreign show. Survival in the wild, tricky and funny, it's really exciting.
Shirakawa changed the channel, and it was the National Supermodel Audition that was playing, and it was the big-breasted beauties in triangle swimsuits that everyone often saw on TV.
After Shirakawa smirked for a while, he continued to change the channel, and it was not interesting to look at it. At this moment, the scene turned, and suddenly a large mosaic appeared, and then there was a burst of heart-pounding screams.
"I'm a big! Is there still this channel in this foreign country? It's still free! In Japan, this is an evening paid program, limited to adults! ”
Shirakawa hurriedly jumped over, not that he didn't want to watch it, but he felt that after he finished reading it, he might be even more uncomfortable.
So he continued to change the channel, and at this time the new TV channel was introducing the situation in Chinatown.
Shirakawa saw those things in his memories of his previous life through the TV screen. Many people say that Chinatown has long been unrelated to the Dragon Kingdom, but in fact, Shirakawa doesn't think so.
He thinks that there are more traditional customs of the Dragon people in Chinatown, such as festival celebrations, dragon and lion dances, etc., which they have preserved very well.
After watching it for a while, Shirakawa turned off the TV and went back to the upstairs bedroom to start catching up on sleep, after all, after taking such a long flight, he should also fall into jet lag, and he will have to go to Citibank tomorrow to run errands.
Early the next morning, Shirakawa woke up and made himself a few fried eggs, baked two slices of bread, and hastily ate breakfast.
He then opened a drawer and took out the key and rushed to the Citibank on Wall Street to take out what his parents had left him.
The taxi driver he met today was a white woman, and unlike the uncle before, she spoke less, but she was very skilled, and the speed was extremely fast along the way.
After Shirakawa got out of the car, he complained in his heart, this fucking woman drives more fiercely than a man! After entering Citibank, you first have to go through layers of security checks. Since a number of robberies in America a few years ago, bank security has increased dramatically.
The sound of dripping sounded, and the key on Shirakawa's body was detected by the detector. Under the vigilant gaze of the security personnel, Shirakawa pointed to his trouser pocket and motioned to take something out.
The security guard nodded, signaling that he was ready to act, so Shirakawa reached into his trouser pocket and took out the key and showed them it.
The security guard smiled at him and let him pass. In America, if the police or security personnel are eyeing you, then you should not act rashly, otherwise it may cause a great misunderstanding.
After all, guns are not banned here, and there are indeed many criminal accidents, and the police will definitely preempt them in order to protect themselves. In this respect, it is very different from Japan.
After entering the hall, Shirakawa found that this Citibank was really luxurious, with a smooth stone floor, a brilliant decoration, and a high-quality uniform girl.
Shirakawa did not go to the counter to handle the business, he found the general manager of the bank, said that he had come to the safe to pick up something, and showed the deposit slip and key.
As soon as the manager saw the appearance of the deposit slip and the key, he knew that it belonged to his bank
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, and he was also a VIP customer, so he had a smile on his face and said to Bai Chuan:
"Sir, please come with me."
The manager took Shirakawa all the way, and after coming to a corner in the corridor, under the watchful eyes of the security guards on both sides, he skillfully entered the password and led Shirakawa into the vault.
They found the number bank on the deposit slip in the middle of the third row of the vault, and asked Shirakawa to insert the key and enter the password.
After a click, the door to the safe opened. Shirakawa saw that there was nothing inside, and unlike what he had expected to be valuables such as money or jewelry, it was a very ordinary sandalwood box.
From the outside, he really couldn't see anything precious, but since his parents told him, he still picked it up and put it in the bag he carried with him.
Bai Chuan didn't open it immediately, he still knew about it, who knew what was in this box!
After seeing him take out the box, the manager in charge smiled and closed the safe door again, and escorted him all the way out.
When he went out, the lobby manager did not forget to tell him that he must pay attention to safety, and if he has any business requirements next time, he is welcome to contact him again.
Shirakawa thought to himself that this service attitude is okay, and it is almost the same as Japan, and it is not as bad as imagined!
It seems that outsiders are right, they all say that America is divided into two extremes, one is the polite upper class, and the other is the extremely chaotic poor class, and from yesterday's experience, this is not unreasonable.
After leaving the house, Baishan went straight back to Brooklyn, where he lived. He sensed that there were no suspicious people around him following him, so he opened the sandalwood box.
After opening it, Shirakawa found that it only contained a very ordinary jade bead, and there was nothing unusual about it.
Shirakawa couldn't figure out why his parents kept this thing for himself, so he picked up the jade beads and looked left and right, but still didn't find anything strange.
He then searched the box again, and when he opened a tray, he found a note inside.
This should be left by the parents for themselves, hey! You can't just say something if you have something to say. When he unfolded it, he found that it was indeed his mother's handwriting, which read:
[Shinichi-kun, if you have already obtained this jade, then when you return to Japan, please go to your grandfather's house, the address is below. Give him this jade and he will understand! 】
Bai Chuan had some doubts in his heart, why did he suddenly want to go to his grandfather's house? For as long as I can remember, my parents don't seem to have taken me back, and I've never seen my grandfather.
Although he had doubts, he decided to follow his parents' request and visit his grandparents' house when he returned to Japan.
Although Bai Chuan has no feelings to talk about with them, after all, there is a blood relationship there, so it is reasonable that he should go or go.
After putting these things in order, Shirakawa put the bead in his backpack to prevent it from being lost.
Then, he picked up his backpack and decided to go to the place recommended by the driver's uncle today, go shopping, and have fun.
Shirakawa's first stop was the Statue of Liberty, the coordinate building of York City, and after taking two photos here, Shirakawa felt that it was just like that, nothing unusual, nothing more than a large statue.
After walking away from the statue of Liberty, he came to yesterday
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The Chinatown that I saw on TV.
At the entrance to this street, Shirakawa saw a large and conspicuous red plaque with three large characters engraved on it with the words "Chinatown" on the iron and silver hooks
He was very excited, and this was the first time he had come into contact with Chinese people in his life. After entering this place, Shirakawa realized that there were not only many Chinese here, but also many foreigners.
They are very interested in this exotic culture and exquisite small objects, and there are even many foreigners wearing white practice clothes and following the Chinese elders to practice Tai Chi or traditional martial arts there.
Of course, in the eyes of real martial artists, these are just some aerobics dances.
The more Shirakawa walked here, the more interested he became, so he decided to eat here at noon and try the food of his previous life to see if it was very authentic.
After watching another lion dance, he decided to dine at the newly opened restaurant.
After entering, he found that there was no foreign Western-style fast food here, and it was all pure Chinese food names. Of course, as for the taste, it still needs to be tried.
With the attitude of trying it out, Bai Chuan ordered a kung pao chicken, a Sichuan shredded pork, and two large bowls of rice.
The owner is an old Chinese man who saw Shirakawa finish ordering. smiled at him: "Hello, are you from the Dragon Kingdom?" Or ......"
Shirakawa understood what he meant, and the old man was asking him if he was from the country of Japan or the country of sticks. After all, the skin color and appearance of these people look similar.
Bai Chuan smiled slightly, and spoke with a thick accent of the Qilu land of the Dragon Kingdom: "I am a pure master of the Dragon Kingdom!" ”
When the old man heard this, yo! It's still a fellow. He also responded with a pure Qilu accent.
When Shirakawa heard it, heh, what a coincidence! So the two sides chatted like this:
"Young man, you're here for the first time, aren't you?"
Bai Chuan asked curiously, "Yes, uncle, how do you know?" ”
The old man smiled and said, "I have opened a restaurant here for decades, and this is my thirteenth store."
I know most of the people here, and only a few people are not familiar with them, but they can be recognized when they meet.
If you don't have an impression of meeting like you, you can basically conclude that you must have come from outside to travel! ”
Shirakawa smiled: "Yes, I'm not here to travel. I heard that Chinatown here is a must-see, so I came here. ”
The old man smiled, and then he instructed the cook to prepare a meal for Shirakawa as soon as possible, and gave Shirakawa a bottle of drink.
Bai Chuan thought to himself that this is not bad, he takes care of his fellow villagers, and it used to be said on the Internet that Chinese people in Chinatown always bully their own domestic people, and it seems that this is not the case, and the comments on the Internet cannot be trusted!
Soon, the dishes came over, and the palace fried chicken and Sichuan-flavored shredded pork were more authentic. After eating at this shop, Shirakawa said goodbye to the owner and continued to wander around Chinatown.
At this moment, he unexpectedly saw Ryoko Takahashi, who had been traveling with him on the plane before.
Shirakawa saw that she was wandering around the stall and thought to himself, this is the nature of women! Even if you are away from home, no matter where you are, you will have a soft spot for these decorations or cosmetics!
Bai Chuan didn't want to say hello to her, after all, the two had only met once, and they didn't know each other very well, so there was no need to get close, so he turned around and left there, wandering in the other direction, there were still a lot of stalls and shops in Chinatown.
