Chapter 425, Buying a fruit and being followed?
When driving out of O'Brien Anderson's factory, Alice certainly didn't know what was happening in the house. A beautiful life was unfolding towards her as Bugatti's supercar moved forward. Only the ghost had the energy to care about the private life of such a small person.
Not long after driving across most of Los Angeles, the city center came into view. High buildings soared into the sky. Although compared to Manhattan, which is a steel forest, the CBD in Los Angeles is really pitifully small, but the modern feeling that comes from the bones is by no means something that Wall Street, the century-old building, can be found in South Island.
It can be said that these two cities are really full of completely opposite temperaments. Just like in Alice's distant hometown, many people like to compare which is better, Beijing or Shanghai. One of the biggest bad things for Americans is to watch the self-promotion and endless confrontation between New Yorkers and Los Angeles.
Which city is better? It really needs to be in line with its own situation. In the city, Alice naturally slowed down the speed. The sunny California afternoon is so charming. The high-intensity multi-ethnic integration is fully visible in the entire California. It is located here, across the Pacific Ocean is an entire Asian emerging market. It is about to run to the east coast where rain and snow are fluttering in winter, and the rich Gothic style is everywhere.
"Hey, Jack!"
When I drove past the Chinatown archway, I happened to see the fellow villager's food stall open again. Alice immediately parked in front of him: "Come on pancakes and add more chili!"
The diligent young man smiled and said, "Okay, Alice, or the same?"
The girl in the convertible supercar nodded and said, "It's exactly the same~"
Jack is a master's student studying at the University of Southern California. He majored in mechanical engineering. He will set up a part-time job here for a fixed number of days a week. If you want to say which type of Chinese snacks Europeans and Americans know the best, pancakes are definitely one of the best ones, and the popularization actions of the majority of Chinese people over the years are really a great contribution.
“Great sports car, Alice.”
While making fruit skillfully, Jack chatted with his old customer: "It's the age to take the driver's license, I knew you could definitely buy a sports car."
Alice holds a lollipop on her mouth: "Oh, are you so sure? Jack, be careful, I tell my dad, let him deduct your salary, what about a secret love~"
Jack laughed and turned over the pancake: "Fall in love with a sixteen-year-old girl? Oh my god, I don't have this hobby. And Alice, it seems that your UCLa's history father can't deduct my salary?"
Alice was silent. How could she joke with a science and engineering boy? Her own science and engineering cells were quite developed.
"Oh by the way, Alice." When the second side of the pancake was baked, Jack said: "Recently, the Los Angeles Times has been talking about the Alice Building. You are so developed. A skyscraper that is 528 meters high! It seems that there is no such high in the world now, right?"
"Well, that's it~" Alice said with a smile: "It depends on how you calculate it. The architectural design height and the actual height after completion will be different. Let's talk about the Willis Building in Chicago. Its architectural height is 442 meters, but if the messy wire towers are added on it, it will be 545 meters~"
"Oh, I don't know this." The mechanical master said that he was not a building after all: "The Los Angeles Times will definitely promote the new landmarks of its city. There will definitely be some exaggeration, but if you really want to talk about the tall buildings and the World Trade Center building, I remember..."
"Four hundred and forty-one meters, this is undoubtedly not as tall as mine." Alice curled her lips: "But tell you Jack, I want to revise the blueprint now. We want to build a building that is more than 600 meters tall."
The young man stopped applying the sauce, and finally remembered that he still had work: "Six, more than six hundred meters!?"
"Well~ I'm not in a hurry anyway, just build it slowly~"
In the afternoon of sunny California, the convertible supercar in front of the Chinatown archway and the girl in sunglasses said so easily, but as an ordinary person and an engineering man with super rational thinking, Jack suddenly became uneasy.
"Make it slowly? Slowly...uh...I mean..."
"No, no hurry, no hurry, no one has given a ticket anyway, so I'll say it slowly."
Jack finally found the topic: "I mean, although I am not a building, if I really want to build a building that tall, I will definitely solve many mechanics problems, right?"
He said: "I have read some books on the history of ancient architecture, saying that in the Middle Ages, the four-story tower was a very amazing building, because until people use steel structures, if they want to build tall buildings, the floor as the foundation must be highly thickened, and..."
"Yayayayayayayayayayayaya, I know the principles of architectural design. The current blueprint of Alice Building was designed by me personally. Thank you for your guidance~"
A light sentence once again shocked Jack: "You designed it? Oh my god, Alice, so you not only know computers and novels, but also architectural design?"
Just said this, he immediately added: "It's fine to be all-round in liberal arts and science, but you have crossed so many fields!"
The pancakes have been completed for most of them, but the two chattering have not put their energy on eating. In front of the stall of the older small vendor, the rich girl said relaxedly: "I am smart and I just learn anything quickly. So you don't have to worry about changing the size again. People who can make up win10 are still afraid that 30 won't be able to get out of ~"
"Oh... In fact, I'm looking forward to the NT system now." Jack was really happy. He could talk to Alice about the point. Unfortunately, their age gap is still too big, otherwise his chances might be bigger?
I just don't know if the girl has a boyfriend now.
Of course, Alice didn't have time to guess the little one in his heart, but after hearing this sentence, she still took off her sunglasses in surprise: "Are you looking forward to the nt system? That's from the server field."
"Yes." Jack said naturally in the pancake fruit bag: "In terms of mechanical engineering, the core topic at present is CNC machine tools. Think about it, how many assembly lines and how many machine tools will be in a large factory? If they can use a computer to operate them in a unified manner, wouldn't it be very convenient?"
The idea is really good, although it will be a little different to realize it. Alice doesn't plan to talk about these topics with him at this time. She took the snack and waved her hand with a smile: "It will be very convenient. So, thank you Jack, and have a great chat with you~"
"Oh, so do I!"
The roaring motor of the supercar rang out immediately. The Southern California graduate student who was still guarding his stall looked at the girl's departure and said to himself: "I'll wait until I finish talking before stepping on the accelerator."
Alice is really hungry, after all, she spent a night of calories last night to process Microsoft emails. At breakfast today, James planned to taste vegetarian bacon. What's the calorie enough for what?
Although there are not many pancakes and fruits.
The super sports car drove up the viaduct along the road and soon entered the city center of Luocheng. It was not far away. After passing through one skyscraper after another, she easily saw the current construction site of her Alice Building.
It was such a big deep pit, covering an area of 1.20,000 square meters, which was not a casual talk. When I saw it, it was a giant with a side length of 100 meters. It was no exaggeration to say that it occupied a stadium.
Of course, it is just a super big pit now. The seven underground floor is not a simple concept, and digging it is even more of a complex project. As Alice saw across the viaduct, after digging a certain depth, workers must first detect the auxiliary mezzanines built by steel pipes, and then constantly strengthen the surrounding earth walls. Otherwise, let alone how the excavator should be free to go up and down, if there is a super landslide, there is no place to cry - they are buried.
"……Um?"
However, when Bugatti drove through this section, what attracted Alice's attention again was not the Hollywood sign that emerged in the distance.
It's a Mazda sedan behind him.
"That bastard...it seems to be when I was buying pancakes, I stopped at... thirty-five meters away from the west side of the road opposite... in front of that sushi restaurant, right?"
Alice is a person with image memory and also has computer-like selective access to energy supply, so any trivial matters can be seen again whenever necessary. This is the case now. What I noticed more than half an hour ago is not yet the subconscious mind has been refrigerated. At this time, something is wrong, and of course the related memories are quickly called into the commonly used folder.
"Well, it's interesting. I left Chinatown with me at the same time, but before that, I didn't notice you, little guy..."
The preliminary conclusion is coming out soon. This car has a high possibility to follow her. After all, she is now two or three miles away from Chinatown, and it is still the city center. What is the probability that this car that is stepping on the accelerator at the same time as her and walking all the way to this end?
No, Alice turned a big bend on the bridge, and it followed!
If this weren't tracking, what would be the probability?
Not to mention, Alice can really calculate it.
So, in theory, this sedan is "probably" following her, and in practice...
"What a leg, let me see where you released the little bird!"
How dare you follow her!?
Being brave!
Chapter completed!
