Chapter 11 [The Poorest Traveler] Change
The next morning, Washington, SHIELD headquarters.
Colson knocked on the director's door and walked straight in.
Colson glanced at the director Nick Fury, who was holding the head of the squid egg, and said, "Director, I think you should have heard of my conversation with Chris, who claims to be from another world."
"Do you believe what this person said?" Nick Fury asked.
Colson shook his head: "I don't believe it very much, but after checking all the archives around the world, I found no information about this boy named Chris. He seemed to appear out of thin air. And the story he told was quite like that."
Nick Fury said: "Before you came, I also used my permissions to check the information of all the secret organizations in the world. Just like you, I got nothing."
Nick Fury couldn't believe that this young man named Chris actually came to his world from another universe, the same planet called Earth.
Nick Fury knew about the existence of aliens, and had faced them directly, and had also repelled the invasion from alien forces with an extraordinary person on Earth. Although aliens are very strong, they also live in a universe like themselves. If the person named Chris is telling the truth, then it seems that there is a need for a reform in the game to target the threats from another world that may or will occur.
Colson asked, "So that's what it means, is this person indeed from another universe?"
"Maybe."
Nick Fury still doesn't believe that this boy is from another universe. Facing Chris who can't find any information, Nick Fury is more inclined to be an alien. After all, there is no information for aliens to come to Earth.
Colson asked, "Then how should we deal with this guy?"
"Don't worry about it for the time being. You did it right before. Just send someone to monitor him. As long as he does not have any abnormal movements, just like most extraordinary people. After registering, you don't worry about him for the time being."
"yes."
Nick Fury thought for a moment and said, "You may not be easy to monitor by yourself. I will arrange for May to support you later."
"Yes, Director."
...
Streets of Philadelphia.
"So that person is an agent? Are you really from another world? And are you the savior of your world?"
Skye said excitedly while driving.
"I said... Didn't you ask Skye several times last night?" Chris sat in the passenger seat, looked at Skye excited, and said speechlessly: "Yes, I do come from another world, and the savior you mentioned!"
"This is incredible, so crazy..."
Since Colson came to find Chris last night, Skye has believed in what Chris said, but the materialism deep in her heart still made her feel that this was too crazy.
"OK, I know it's hard to accept for a while, but I hope you don't tell me about this matter, the agent told me."
"Of course, my mouth is very tight." Skye suddenly glanced at Chris and smiled charmingly.
Chris looked out the window and asked, "We're in Philadelphia now?"
"Well, the most urgent thing is to go and refuel, and go to the supermarket to buy food for a week..."
Skye glanced at Chris and said again: "No, you need to prepare two weeks of food!"
Chris: "..."
Half an hour passed, Chris and Skye filled the gasoline in the RV, and asked the people from the gas station to help fill the water tank of their RV with tap water, and then excitedly headed straight to the largest Walmart supermarket nearby.
In the food area on the third floor of Walmart Supermarket, Skye was excited to choose the snacks or drinks he liked to eat, while Chris was silently pushing the cart behind him and following him.
"One, two, three..."
Chris seemed to follow Skye intently, but in fact his eyes were always staring at the crowd around him. He had silently found several people who looked like Agents of S.H.E.L.D.
This is not to say that Chris has anti-reconnaissance capabilities, but that these agents are either wearing black suits, wearing sunglasses, or pretending to use snacks to actually peek at themselves and others in the dark.
With such obvious surveillance, Chris is naturally not blind.
Skye, who was choosing snacks in front, looked at the cucumber-flavored potato chips and tomato-flavored potato chips in her hand, hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to take the two packs together, throw them into the cart, and turned to Chris and said, "Okay, that's all. By the way, Chris do you have anything to eat?"
"Sausage?!" Chris said casually.
"I know." Skye rolled her eyes, as if she was very clear about Chris' preference. "I have already brought you three bags of extra-large bags of sausages. When you go back, you can eat them either by roasting or frying them."
Chris smiled: "Well, thank you, Skye."
"This is what I am treating you, a guest from another world on behalf of our world."
Skye no longer thinks that Chris can pay back the money to herself. She doesn't mention the money for meals in recent days, just that the money for that set of clothes is not enough, she doesn't think Chris can afford it.
Suddenly, Skye thought of the clothes and glanced at Chris's body. It was still the one she bought a few days ago. She couldn't help but frown and said, "Let's go, I'll buy you two sets of clothes for changing. My God, I haven't noticed that you are still wearing this set of clothes. It won't be stinky."
When he mentioned the word "stinky", Skye deliberately stepped forward and sniffed it. Then he pretended to have a disgusting expression. He took a few steps and slapped the air in front of him and said, "It smells so smelly. You must take a good bath tonight, but don't stink my hut."
Chris grabbed the collar and sniffed it himself, but he didn't notice any strange smell. He took a bath every day and shouldn't smell bad.
"Haha...you really believe it." Seeing that his prank was successful, Skye burst into laughter, covered his stomach that was sore, and stuttered: "Okay... it's okay, it's not very smelly, but you still have to buy two sets of clothes for you."
After going around, Skye bought three sets of changing clothes for Chris on the second floor of Walmart, and then took Chris back to the cashier on the first floor.
The cashier is typing on the keyboard while holding the infrared scanner.
Seeing the numbers on the monitor getting higher and higher, and had already exceeded one thousand dollars, Skye's face instantly turned dark. As the saying goes, shopping is fun for a while, and shopping is always fun!
After scanning the last pack of potato chips, the cashier said to Skye: "Ms., a total of $1,538."
Hearing the amount of $1,538, Skye's face was so shattered that it could not be broken. She reluctantly took out a wallet from the shoulder bag she brought with her, and slowly pulled out a stack of $20 bills from it.
When the middle-aged cashier American aunt saw this scene, she couldn't help swallowing. She had been engaged in banking for almost ten years. It was the first time she saw someone come out with so much cash. The American aunt silently looked at the faces of Chris and Skye, and found that they were Asians and instantly understood something.
After putting it in the cash detector and swiping it twice, the American aunt said, "Ms., there is only $1,000 here. Do you want to swipe the card or do you want to swipe the rest?"
"cash."
Skye put his hand into the inner pocket of the coat, magically took out a stack of US dollars from it, counted 540 US dollars, and handed it to the American aunt.
Regardless of the strange eyes of the American aunt, Skye had a dark face, carrying a big bag and a small bag, and walked to the parking lot outside Walmart with Chris, who was also carrying a big bag and a small bag behind her.
Five or six minutes later, the two returned to the RV.
After throwing the things I bought on the ground casually, Skye sat on the sofa and said angrily: "It's all your fault for Chris, you made me spend almost all my money!"
Skye relies on its own computer technology to help people make game plug-ins or steal some unsecret files. It took a whole year to save it, and only earned a total of 25,000 US dollars. After buying a RV, it spent 19,000 US dollars. In recent days, Skye spent more than a thousand US dollars. Now, there are only less than two thousand US dollars left.
It is probably impossible to persevere in Las Vegas. It seems that you have to find a way to make some money on the road, Skye thought of this.
Chris was so angry that he had nothing to say, and he couldn't say anything. He seemed to have only bought three sets of clothes, less than 200 US dollars, and most of the rest were snacks you bought yourself.
Of course, Chris would definitely not say these words. Who made Skye hold the money now?
After staying in Philadelphia for less than two days, after visiting some famous attractions in Philadelphia, Chris and Skye set out again to Las Vegas.
The two set off early in the morning, headed west for about two hours, and arrived at a small city called Chester 22 kilometers southwest of Philadelphia.
Skye drove the RV to an unmanned road, stepped on the brakes, pulled out the keys, and looked at Chris in the passenger seat and said, "Okay, let's go here first, let's have lunch. I'll cook, you can stay honestly for me!"
Chris nodded. He didn't stay in the car and had no place to go.
As soon as Skye left the cab and walked towards the kitchen behind, she caught a glance at a man waving to him directly across the road.
When I looked closely, it was Colson.
Although he knew that there were people from SHIELD around him who had been monitoring him, Chris only regarded him as invisible and did not want to have too much contact with them.
But this time Colson appeared directly in front of him and waved to him. Didn’t he understand that he would let him go over and meet him?
I couldn't help but sigh, and Chris said to Skye, who was busy cooking behind me, "Skye, I'll go to the convenience store opposite to buy a cup of Coke."
Skye immediately shouted: "Isn't there a Coke in the car? What money can I waste to buy it?"
"I want to drink ice." Chris said weakly.
"It's really troublesome."
Skye stopped the work, walked over with an unhappy look on his face, lowered his head, looked through the front windshield at the convenience store across the street: "Do you have money?"
"Yes, I'm not using the ten dollars you gave me yet. It should be enough to buy a cup of Coke." Chris felt extremely pitiful now. He was young and no one wanted to work, and he didn't want to be involved with S.H.E.L.D., so he could only follow Skye wronged.
Everyone else has a relationship with Tony Stark as soon as they come to Marvel, and they always ask Tony to give him millions of dollars to spend money. But I’ve been in this world for so long, and I’ve been in the cash on my body for no more than ten dollars. I’m afraid I’m the poorest time traveler ever.
"Go." Skye turned around and went back to the kitchen to cook when she heard that Chris had money.
