Chapter Six

Marco looked at Tao Xi walking in front, and Marco suddenly felt a huge sense of security in his heart, because Tao Xi was like this before and always protected him and Hill~

"Tao Xi, thank you~"

"Crazy! Go back and coax Hill, and do some ideological work for him at the same time, so that he will not go to the school on the street and be bullied by others and cry. We must bring out the spirit of our sewers!"

"Okay! Don't worry!"

Tao Xi got up early the next day.

In fact, it's not that Tao Xi doesn't want to sleep in, but that Hill was so excited last night that he didn't fall asleep~

The older brother is the younger brother. If Tao Xi hadn't threatened Hill last night to take back all the money if he didn't sleep, Tao Xi might not have been able to sleep for these four hours.

"Marco, remember to ask, if you go to take the preparatory class with that naughty professor, can they take care of food and accommodation? If they can take care of it, let's see how much money we still need to pay, and ask clearly."

Marco nodded obediently when he heard Taosi's words, but Hill pouted and muttered: "Professor Niu Ma, this is Oxford University, which is a well-known university in the United States."

"Ouch, taxi!" Hill shouted angrily when he lowered his head and saw that Tao Xi had used the cookie tin that was used to hold money last night to hit him.

"Hill, if you don't want to be looked down upon by others, you'd better change your Mexican accent for me!" Tao Xi glanced at Hill before turning over and continuing to sleep.

When Marco was getting dressed, Taosi said again: "Marco, do you know what you should do today?"

"I know, I know." When Marco was gently dragging Hill away from here, Tao Xi's words suddenly shocked Marco~

"I need to borrow $100 from Mr. Williams today to buy some decent clothes for Hill, and leave $50 of pocket money for Hill! And I promise to Mr. Williams that he will get the money within a week.

The debt must be paid off.”

"The next step is for Mr. Williams to act as Hill's guardian and let him enter the Oxford professor's preparatory class for residential study!"

Tao Xi closed his eyes and heard Marco's answer without saying a word. Just when Hill urged Marco to leave, Tao Xi asked again: "Sil, do you know what you need to say?"

After hearing Tao Xi's question, Hill blushed and remained silent for a long time. Then Hill began to sob: "I...I am the child who walked out of the sewer. I am Latin."

Why should I deny this? Why should I say that I immigrated to the United States from England with Uncle Williams!"

Tao Xi, who had closed his eyes and remained silent, glared at Hill fiercely with his red bloodshot eyes that he had just woken up from, and cursed: "Listen to Hill!"

"Since you have decided to go out to study, I will let you go to college safely no matter what happens!"

"From today on, you will never mention me or Marco again outside!"

"Because we are us and you are you! You need to be independent! You have grown up! When I was 14 years old, I was hunted down by a group of people who broke into our territory from Mexico because of you!"

"If you dare to mention that you came out of the sewer, I will break your legs!"

Seeing Tao Xi's fierce look, Hill's face that was flushed instantly turned pale.

After Marco saw Tao Xi starting to sleep again, Marco grabbed Hill's head and dragged him outside.

Just when Tao Xi thought everyone was gone and it was finally quiet~

Hill roared his voice outside and yelled: "Taxi, I'm Hispanic! I'm a sewer kid!"

Tao Xi was not angry anymore when he heard what Hill said, because he knew that Hill was a sensible child since he was a child. No matter what Hill said now, he would definitely do what he said when he got to that Oxford professor!

As for why Hill was asked to change his accent and lie that he immigrated from the UK, it was not because of the environment in the United States!

The reason why he, a yellow-skinned child, escaped from the orphanage with Marco overnight was not only because of his skin and Marco's strong South American rural accent, but also because of the fact that the orphanage had to eat three meals a day.

Tao Xi ran away with Marco~

When Marco was a child, he was trafficked from Mexico to a gang in Tijuana, California, and was forced to learn the art of drumming.

The two of them drifted outside for a year relying on this. Finally, one winter, they were rescued by Old Nar, and the two of them lived their current life.

However, when Tao Xi thought about the days when he would become a father and a mother again, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Just when Tao Xi was about to sleep again, Tao Xi suddenly saw the words on the tattered cabinet out of the corner of his eye.

Radio~

The sentence he heard yesterday began to play on a loop in Tao Xi's head again~

"Lottery fourth prize" "Lottery fourth prize" "Lottery fourth prize"

Thinking of this, Tao Xi couldn't help but feel moved. When Tao Xi reached under the pillow and touched the handful of 40 dollars made up of 1 cent and 1 dollar, Tao Xi suddenly stood up and wiped it out by mistake.

Run towards the [US-Australia Community]~

But when Tao Xi wanted to take a shortcut and pass by yesterday's old place, before Tao Xi could get closer, he heard the sound of construction not far ahead~

The sound of the "rumbling" operation of the water pump kept echoing in the sewer. Just when Tao Xi mistakenly thought that it was the Los Angeles County Water Department doing construction, Tao Xi suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the sound of the water pump!

If it were the work of pumps in Los Angeles County, there would definitely not be such a big noise, because when the Los Angeles County Water Bureau started to use high-power pumps, people from nearby communities often complained about the impact on sleep and work. In the end, the newly appointed director of the Water Bureau

He promised to all residents of [American and Australian communities] not to use high-power water pumps to affect the sleep of these night shift workers, so that he could work normally and be re-elected for two terms!

These are the news that Tao Xi read from Longer's newsstand~

After figuring out these joints, Tao Xi quietly climbed up towards the water pipe not far away. Tao Xi, who was as nimble as a monkey, did not let the other party notice his existence~

There was a huge roar of machinery and a group of people wearing rain boots were working in the pipe that was filled with garbage by Tao Xi yesterday. These people wearing masks working in the sewer were constantly being watched by a man in a straight suit standing on the manhole cover.

Giving various orders~

"Damn Cubby David! This villain is so successful, I suggest that we set up a guild next year to remove this damn general manager!"

"Oh, don't think about it, brother, the performance of US-Australia Paper is getting better year by year. How can Cubby David, a garbage man who secretly discharges sewage, be fired!"

"Yeah, brother, let's clean up the garbage here honestly. Maybe Cubby David, the vampire, will be so kind as to give us a salary increase!"

"I really don't know which idiot dumped the garbage into the sewer. If I catch him, I will definitely put his head into the toilet and let him smell the stench of Kubi!"

When Tao Xi heard the discussion of these people, he slowly backed away little by little. When Tao Xi felt that he had retreated to a safe place, Tao Xi jumped down from the water pipe like a carp~

Tao Xi patted his unclean body nonchalantly and walked toward another sewer manhole cover that led directly to the [American and Australian Community] with a worried expression~

When Tao Xi once again stood in the world above the manhole cover, the colors of the entire Los Angeles County became rich again in Tao Xi's eyes.

Even the air and everyone are alive, unlike in the sewer, where the colors Tao Xi sees every day are either black or black.

"If the lotto thing is true, I might be able to take our family and find a place where we can settle down in the American-Australian community or the black community!"

Tao Xi sniffed the air outside fiercely and walked towards the newsstand he was familiar with. Even the pedestrians who disliked him for taking a detour at first, Tao Xi rarely gave each of them some.

Smiley face.

But as Tao Xi got closer and closer to the Wal-Mart shopping mall, Tao Xi became more and more nervous.

“What if that radio was an April Fool’s joke on me?”

"What if it wasn't Grandpa Longer's newsstand? There are nearly 40 newsstands in the entire American and Australian community!"

Maybe this is what buying lottery tickets is like, especially when you know which lottery tickets may allow you to win, when you go to buy them, many ideas will burst into your mind for no reason~

When Tao Xi saw Grandpa Long's newsstand not far away, Tao Xi began to hesitate!

Because he was a little afraid. He was afraid that if what was in the tape recorder was false, he might have to worry about the high school that Hill might be admitted to. If what was in the tape recorder was false, he might take Marco and Xi with him.

You have to work hard in the sewers for a class they can never cross!

"Hey, Tao Xi, damn it, I went to the sewer yesterday to look for you for a long time but I didn't find you! Why did you come here today!"

Today, Nikita looked very high-spirited, and he was followed by several white guys in blue overalls. When Nikita was talking to Taosi, Nikita did not forget to brag about himself: "Hey, how many of you guys?"

Don’t look at Tao Xi’s young age, he is the leader of the Blood Gang in Prison No. 86!"

Tao Xi reacted immediately when he heard Nikta calling him this name.

The frowning Tao Xi seemed to hate this title very much. Tao Xi pushed Nikta and staggered: "Oh! Shit, Nikta, it seems that Bolton's teachings to you are not very good. Wait for you.

Next time you go to another neighborhood to commit a crime, I must let those black dogs take good care of you!"

When Nikita saw Tao Xi's angry look, she hurriedly lay down in Tao Xi's ear and whispered comfort: "Oh, just a joke, just a joke, these young men are my new recruits from the US-Australia Paper Industry.

To save face, I am doing this for our next plan."

"What a bullshit plan, I'm just going to fight those wealthy capitalists for my own living environment in the sewers!" Tao Xi saw Nikta's appearance and hurriedly waved his hands and said with a righteous look.

When the three white boys across the street first heard Nickta, a black man, boasting that Tao Xi was the leader of the Blood Gang in the Los Angeles prison, they still looked in disbelief. When they heard Tao Xi say the three words "sewer"

, these young men immediately became silent.

One of the young men even whispered in a low voice: "These sewer bugs are all evil! Otherwise, I think we should forget it."

The other person nodded in agreement when he heard this. Nilta obviously felt that she couldn't hold on to her face when she heard this. She raised her foot and kicked the chest of the person who spoke first.

But Tao Xi stopped him nonchalantly: "Okay, okay, you don't need to do these things in front of me. You can solve it yourself. You know Nilta, what I said about this matter at the beginning

You also share in the profits.”

After saying this, Tao Xi could no longer stand and mess around with Nilta here.

Because a very desolate looking man has already gone to Lonre's newsstand to read the newspaper. Who knows when that destitute gas station worker named McCann Reis will go and collect the few remaining "Lottery" tickets?

Lottery tickets are bought.

After all, Tao Xi clearly remembers what was said on the radio last night~

Tao Xi, who trotted to the newsstand, saw a new "Lottery Ticket Purchase Point" sign with a reflective anti-counterfeiting label posted on the newsstand he called Grandpa Longer before he even got close.

Seeing this scene, Tao Xi immediately became happy. Tao Xi, who was just about to pay for the lottery tickets, heard the quarrel in front of the newspapers~

"Ahem! McCann, you already owe me $5 for the newspaper!"

"It's impossible for me to take away the newspaper that can help you find a job. I don't like doing business with people who have no credibility!" Long Er's hoarse voice kept arguing with the man standing in front of the newspaper.

, Tao Xi knew as soon as he heard Long Er's voice that the little old man Long Er must not have taken any medicine when he went out today, because he always felt like there was thick phlegm in his throat when he spoke~

The down-and-out man named McCann tightened the collar around his neck and said viciously: "Oh! Damn it, it's not like I'm going to lose my job. That damn tallyman looks down on me, the gas station supervisor looks down on me, and now even

You damn old man looks down on me!"

After saying this, McCann kept circling the newsstand with an angry look on his face, but Tao Xi did not go forward because the content on the radio last night obviously did not match the scene that happened in front of him.
