Chapter 313, Cat and Mouse Game
After two days in Wudu, Zhou Jimin left and took Pan Am to Bald Eagle.
He didn't fly his own plane because the destination was a bald eagle.
The Bald Eagle is a very evil place, and he was denied a visa for the first time in his last life, wasting a visa fee of 2,000 yuan.
Who would want to stay in the bald eagle?
Just use this reason to refuse a visa, it's simple!
In this era, the technology of the bald eagle is very strong, especially the Gulf War more than 20 years later, which directly woke up the whole world.
Therefore, it is very important to hold a steady hand.
He didn't want his plane to be taken down by the Bald Eagle.
At the boarding gate of Wudu Airport, Zhou Jimin was the last passenger to board the first class.
He looked at a white man who had just passed by him and was heading to the cockpit, and his expression became strange.
Immediately, he sat down, took out a few photos from the space, and looked at them carefully.
"I wasn't mistaken, the young man was indeed Frank Abanel, and now things are getting interesting."
This Mr. Frank, although he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, is definitely a financial habitual offender, a big liar.
There was a movie called the Cat and Mouse Game in later generations, and the prototype was this Mr. Frank.
Born in 1948, he has been forging checks and impersonating his identity since he was 16 years old.
This year is 1966, Frank is already eighteen years old, and it is also the first time he has gone abroad to come to Wudu to cheat.
Not to mention, it is much better abroad than at home, and if he didn't need to go back to Bald Eagle to visit his parents, he wouldn't have gone back.
But in any case, it is too convenient to disguise as a captain.
Zhou Jimin put the photo away, he was not interested in Frank, but he just happened to come across it, and it happened that he was very impressed by this movie, so he remembered it.
The plane took off smoothly, crossed the Atlantic, and landed smoothly at the New York airport.
Nothing unexpected happened, there was just calm.
Coming out of the airport, Zhou Jimin reached out and flagged down a taxi, ready to go to the university in the suburbs.
Unexpectedly, he was just about to get into the car, but Frank behind him took the lead and got into the car directly.
"Hey, sorry, I'm in a hurry!"
Frank showed a handsome smile, said hello to Zhou Jimin, and urged the driver to hurry up and drive.
The taxi driver was a black man who saw two white men fighting, didn't dare to drive, and wanted to eat melons.
The black-white controversy in this era is still quite serious.
Since last year, blacks have only been recognized and supported by the law, but the reality is that there is a constant fight.
Zhou Jimin and Frank don't have any opinions about black people, they are all about their own high-mindedness.
That's why black drivers have a chance to see the fight.
However, Zhou Jimin came directly to the back seat, grabbed Frank, like an eagle catching a chicken, and threw the latter out of the car.
"Want to cut the line? There are no doors! ”
Dropping this sentence, Zhou Jimin did not urge the black driver, but just looked at Frank indifferently.
If the latter is not interested, he doesn't mind making the other person sober up for a moment or two.
glared at Zhou Jimin hatefully, and Frank could only leave in a huffed manner and go to the front to take a taxi.
Unexpectedly, his captain's costume did not bring him good luck, and it seemed that he used the wrong object.
"Hey, have you seen enough? Still not driving? ”
The black driver was still eating melons, eating with relish, until a voice came from behind, and then he woke up like a dream.
"Sir, where are you going?"
"Go to Columbia University in Upper Manhattan."
Hearing Zhou Jimin's words, the black driver suddenly showed respect and resentment.
This school is the oldest institution of higher education in the city of New York, one of the Ivy League schools, and many great people have come out of here.
But at the same time, this school basically sees very few black students, and almost only admits white students.
Zhou Jimin doesn't know this, and even if he knows, he will treat it as if he doesn't know.
Coming to Columbia University in a car, on the side of the road, he got out of the car.
Didn't let the black driver drive the car in, so as not to get into trouble again.
On the journey from the airport to the city just now, Zhou Jimin had already seen a lot of chaotic scenes.
Hardly asking, he also knows how miserable the black people of this era really are.
Therefore, he only realized how bold he was to take a black taxi.
You know, he's wearing Peter's white vest right now, and he's on the opposite side of the blacks.
Entering the campus, Zhou Jimin was shocked.
The school is beautiful, shaded by trees and high in youth.
After all, this is the Manhattan area, and it is the center of the city.
However, Columbia University occupies 1,800 acres of land here, which is simply inhumane.
As a private research institution, Columbia's departments are very impressive, and they are ranked among the top in the United States all year round.
Physics, Linchuan Medicine, and Business are the most awesome majors in this school.
Zhou Jimin went straight to the graduate school of arts and sciences, and what he was looking for was Vince Bloomberg.
The most awesome thing about Columbia University is its physics and other majors, and from the perspective of later generations, physics is the most dicked.
Since he's here, he doesn't have to know more people, right?
Vince Bloomberg is a lecturer in mathematics at the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and has previously been invited to the International Congress of Mathematicians.
This gentleman is not one of the sixty people invited by Zhou Jimin, but is in the inspection list.
"Hello, how do I get to the math lecturer's office?"
After walking around, he didn't see the office, so Zhou Jimin had to stop a classmate and ask for directions.
"Go straight ahead for fifty meters and turn right."
"Thank you."
As a result, before he left, the classmate who spoke just now and the female classmate next to him hurriedly said:
"It's the second intersection where you go straight for 20 meters and turn left, I'm sorry, my classmate likes to joke."
Glancing at the other party, Zhou Jimin said thank you expressionlessly, turned around and left.
What the heck?
Behind him, the two students were arguing.
"Why are you talking nonsense?"
"Who told you to keep an eye on him? Just because I'm more handsome than him? ”
"Poof, are you saying the opposite? Obviously, people are much more handsome than you, and they are taller than you. ”
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Zhou Jimin, who had already stepped into the teaching building, naturally did not hear the conversation between the two.
The inexplicable episode was quickly thrown out of the clouds by him.
In the office, Zhou Jimin had already met Vince.
"Hello, is this Professor Vince Bloomberg? I'm Peter, I'm from the fog, and I've heard Alban mention you......"
The latter was a little stunned, and after Zhou Jimin finished explaining, he suddenly realized, and immediately invited Zhou Jimin to sit down and chat.
Because Vince knew very well that when he was in Moscow, Alban had told him that he would recommend him, and as for whether it could be successful, it would depend on whether the review was passed.
Obviously, Peter, who came to him now, was the one who came to audit.
So he had to be enthusiastic.
However, as soon as the two sat down, someone came from outside the office.
The other party held a bunch of materials, put them directly on Vince's desk, and said commandingly:
"Vince, this is the information distributed above, the professor has ordered, let you complete it within a week, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"
After that, the man glanced at Zhou Jimin with condescending contempt:
"Who is he? Forget it, I don't want to know, I'm just informing you, don't deal with any cats and dogs, delay the things explained above, you should know the consequences very well, you don't need me to repeat it, right? ”
"Bob, this is my friend, please be respectful!"
Vince's face was as red as a boiled prawn, so embarrassed and aggrieved that he wanted to dig a hole and flee the scene.
He didn't expect himself to be so weak, and he finally looked forward to the censors, but was seen a scene that he didn't want to be known.
If the eyes can kill, the Bob in front of him has already been cut by him with a thousand knives.
"Heh, your friend? Do I have to be respectful? ”
Bob sneered, but before he could say a second sentence, Zhou Jimin spoke:
"Where did the flies come from? It's so noisy, Vince, I've got mosquito spray here, I'll help you get rid of the flies. ”
He then pulled out a spray from his backpack behind him and sprayed it towards Bob's face.
The latter was so angry that he yelled and hurriedly retreated, not even daring to say cruel words.
Walking out of the office, it didn't take long for a bee to chase after him.
It's summer, and the campus of Columbia University has a high level of greenery, and it's normal to have bees.
Frightened, Bob ran faster, however, more bees were already catching up behind him.
In the confusion, he tasted the water running down his cheeks in his mouth.
The sweet taste is not a poison.
Damn, it's not a mosquito repellent spray at all!
Bob is angry, but doesn't go back to get revenge, because he has to flee the scene and not be targeted by more bees.
Otherwise, he will become a pig's head.
The students on the school road all laughed gloating when they saw someone being chased by bees.
In the office, Vince said gratefully:
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome, I don't like this kind of person either."
Next, Zhou Jimin began to follow the process and began to conduct the so-called audit.
From the current point of view, Vince is really not good at Columbia.
There are endless calculation tasks and many teaching tasks, which makes him tired to cope.
In order to successfully pass the title review, he can only work hard!
However, someone wanted to stop him, so his road to selection became longer.
The slightest mistake could have led to him being fired.
Columbia University Don't Waste!
But he could only grit his teeth and insist, this was not only a matter of his face, but also a competition for survival.
"Okay, I know the situation, then you wait for the notice."
After understanding the situation, Zhou Jimin nodded, and then got up to leave.
From the conversation just now, as well as the brief contact in Moscow before, Zhou Jimin already has a more comprehensive understanding of Vince as a person.
This person is an untapped piece of jade, a malleable talent.
Majoring in physics and minoring in theoretical mathematics, he has a solid foundation in both fields.
is a lack of innovation ability, uprightness, in order to achieve the goal, willing to choose to compromise, will not give up easily.
Judging from the fact that the other party has been bullied by someone like Bob for more than two years, he is completely angry.
"It's not a bad thing to lack the ability to innovate."
Zhou Jimin is already inclined to pull the other party to the small city of June Fourth.
The town needs such an executor so much.
In terms of innovation ability, Zhou Jimin himself is not bad, and Philip and Xu Lei in the small city are also outstanding.
But there are not many qualified and obedient tool people.
After all, when it comes to scientific research, the leader is important, but the executor is just as important.
And the more people with such tools, the better.
Leaving the campus of Ge University, Zhou Jimin came to a nearby hotel, and when the front desk had just finished paying the room fee and checking in, at the staircase, Frank was holding a bewitching woman in his arms, passing by the front desk with a spring breeze.
Frank was both flirting and not paying any attention to the front desk.
"It's so unlucky!"
With a scolding scolding, Zhou Jimin turned his head and said to the front desk:
"I'm sorry, I don't want to stay, please help me back up."
The front desk's face instantly fell, and he said in a stiff tone:
"I'm sorry sir, once the payment is made, it is not refundable."
"What did you say?"
Zhou Jimin, who was already in a bad mood because of Frank, heard the other party's words and became angry directly:
"You say it again? Is your hotel a money grabber? Just gave you the money, and you said you can't get a refund? What's up? Overlord clause, right? Call out your boss to me, I don't believe it today, is there really no way to get a refund? ”
He's not Vince Bloomberg, and he needs to be compromised.
I just don't want to stay in the same hotel as Frank.
Can't get a refund?
Oh, he's going to make trouble!
Although he was afraid of Bald Eagle's missiles and didn't dare to fly a plane, on land, didn't he dare to fight back after being bullied?
The front desk was directly dumbfounded, she didn't expect Zhou Jimin to react so violently.
The customers in the vicinity all cast strange glances, and Frank, who had just walked to the door, also looked back.
At this glance, Frank, who didn't want to join in the fun, walked back and wanted to eat this melon.
"Sorry sir, this is the rule of our hotel, once paid ......"
The front desk was still reciting the terms, but was coldly interrupted by Zhou Jimin: "I don't want to listen to your nonsense, call your boss out, I want to talk to your boss, I asked him to tell me in person, once the room fee is paid, it cannot be refunded, what is the basis?" ”
was forced to the front desk in the corner, looked at the more and more onlookers, and wanted to admit it.
At this time, there was a fat man behind her, and his face was greasy.
"I'm the boss, what do you want to do?"
"Return the money! I just paid for the room, she hasn't checked me in yet, I suddenly don't want to live, but you don't want to refund, what is this overlord clause? ”
When Zhou Jimin was resigned, many customers behind him nodded again and again.
I just changed my mind at the last minute, and I haven't checked in yet, why can't I get a refund?
Without waiting for the fat boss to speak, Frank suddenly stood up, "I thought you were some kind of rich man, it turns out that you are just a poor boy arguing for dozens of dollars........"
Zhou Jimin glanced at Frank, didn't squeak, just looked at the fat boss, and asked for an explanation first.
After all, everything comes first, comes first.
The fat boss hugged the waist of the front desk and looked Zhou Jimin up and down, "I can't retreat, get out of here, don't disturb my business, or I will invite you to sit at the police station, understand?" ”
The latter was immediately laughed at angrily, Zhen Temeow is a greedy person.
You can't really take Frank's word and think he's a poor boy, right?
"Are you sure you won't get a refund?" He squinted his eyes and asked coldly.
"Don't retreat, get out!"
"Okay, just don't regret it."
With that, Zhou Jimin turned around and left the front desk, and glanced at Frank before leaving.
Frank was still smiling and watching, unaware that he was in the thick of it.
The most effective way to deal with a liar is to send him to jail and make him lose his freedom.
However, before that, it is necessary to confirm that Frank is fully adult, and then confirm the legal sentencing clause for fraud.
As we all know, Bald Eagle's laws are very strange and extremely complicated, and it is quite difficult for people not to understand clearly.
The first is to confirm that Frank is from there, the second is what crimes he committed and where he committed them, and the third is whether it is based on local law or federal law, and so on.
An hour and a half later, on the sidewalk in front of the hotel, Zhou Jimin paid for 50 extras, holding plaques, banners, etc., pushing loudspeakers, and working at the door of the hotel.
The shopkeeper bullied customers, refused to refund, did not pay attention to hygiene, etc., all of which are the crimes of the hotel.
So many people gathered together, or gathered to make trouble, which directly attracted a lot of onlookers who ate melons.
Even the tourists who were wandering around the neighborhood gathered, not to mention the customers who lived in the hotel.
The fat boss, who had just played a friendly match with a beautiful woman, was in the sage time, reminiscing about the aftertaste just now, when the door of the room was knocked open, and it was a panicked small front desk that broke in.
"Boss, no, that customer brought someone to make trouble just now......"
"Who dares to come to me to make trouble? Wait a minute, help me get dressed. ”
By the time the fat boss got dressed and came to the door of the hotel, it was already surrounded by water.
So many people gathered together, and all kinds of signs were held, all about the negativity of his hotel, which made the fat boss so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.
"What? Do? What are you doing in front of my hotel? , I've already called the police to come over, and if you don't get out, you'll all go to the police station......."
The fat boss, who was so angry that he was about to explode, was still a threat to the police station.
Zhou Jimin, who was at the front of the crowd, was happy when he heard the words, and said:
"The police can't detain us when they come, but we gather people to seek justice in accordance with the law, who made your hotel so domineering? ……..”
When the enemies see each other, they are very red!
For Zhou Jimin, a poor boy, the fat boss still remembers it clearly, after all, it was only an hour and a half ago.
"It's you!
! From which corner do you dare to provoke me? I think you're impatient, aren't you? For God's sake, I will let you experience the beauty of the world again, and I hope you can withstand it. ”
"Hehe, can I withstand it, I don't care about you."
Zhou Jimin smiled and said:
"But, I think you can't stand it anymore, they will stay here until no one comes to your hotel again, come on, I look good at you."
Ga!
The fat boss looked back, and sure enough, at the front desk, many customers were checking out.
That's it, he really can't bear it.
Not to mention, just today's gathering of people, in the future, the hotel will not think of having customers.
