Conan: I'm really not the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 180 People in a Foreign Country

A few days later, New York's LaGuardia Airport.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the plane landed safely. Glenn went down the escalator alone with his travel bag and found the Q48 bus stop according to the strategy he had prepared long ago.

The bright green license plate hanging there was quite eye-catching. The rabbit fiddled with Glenn's coat pocket, changing from the scorpion that was more convenient for hiding back to his most accustomed rabbit state, and poked his head out to look around.

Glenn raised his hand and pushed him back gently, then boarded the bus that happened to be arriving at the stop. He swiped his card, found a seat near the door, pulled his bag to his chest and held it, and the car quickly drove away.

The car made a U-turn and drove towards Citi Field. The rabbit finally poked its head out again under the cover of the bag.

This time he was much more careful. He saw a black woman with dreadlocks and a fit body walking past them. She glanced at them casually and sat in the seat behind them.

Glenn didn't speak to him or the black man, and the bus quickly reached the food court stop. She picked up her bag and suddenly something fell down with a thud.

The black woman bent down and picked it up. It was a small handbag. She kindly reached out and handed it to him: "Is this your thing?"

There were not many people in the car. The few passengers glanced at the two ethnic minorities and looked away without interest.

"Yes, Thanks."

Glenn spoke relatively standard English with a slight Texas accent, took what Rum asked her men to give her, and got out of the car with Rabbit.

This is Flushing, the Chinese ghetto in New York City.

……

Rabbit came to New York for two reasons.

The first reason is that Glenn doesn't know how long he will be gone this time. If she is not here, it means Miyano Shiho will take care of him.

Rabbit likes Miyano Shiho very much, but he knows very well that this childhood goddess does not know that he is a human being, and treats him completely as a pet - giving him grass for three meals a day, and seeing that he refuses to urinate in the potty, he even thinks about it. Take him to the vet...

Moreover, he is an adult male after all, and it is okay if he is fondled at work. He should not be too close to an unsuspecting girl in his daily life.

This is said to be a Chinese area, but in fact there are many Koreans and Japanese here. When Rabbit looked up, he saw a Korean billboard. A police siren sounded in the distance.

He stared blankly at the scene in front of him.

There is a milk tea shop, KFC, spicy hotpot, pot sticker shop, and an electronic product repair shop down from the station. At first glance, it looks like a domestic urban village. Most of the passers-by have black hair and yellow skin...

That means it's English.

Previously in Japan, he had a Japanese translator provided by the system. When others spoke around him, they would automatically translate into his native language. As a result, in his ears, the original characters around him spoke fluent Mandarin (their voices remained unchanged).

At the same time, all the text has been changed to standard Song font square characters, so it is no problem to read magazines and watch TV.

But it was different now. People of different skin colors occasionally passed by in the crowd, and the language he could barely understand a few words in his ears gave Rabbit a more real feeling that he was in a foreign country.

——And it’s a foreign country in another world.

Rabbit couldn't express what he was feeling.

Glenn just got off the car and walked forward without staying too long.

They passed a department store, Glenn bought a newspaper from the newsstand at the corner of the street, and then came to a residential area.

There are many six- and seven-story apartments in the residential area. The streets here are much cleaner than before. The playground equipment in the park at the entrance is full of children, and there are many old people sitting on the green edges. The whole area looks particularly crowded.

Glenn passed by a square, and Rabbit's ears suddenly twitched when he heard the music. He turned around and saw rows of old aunts lined up neatly, dancing to familiar music. He was inexplicably excited by the scenes that he thought were noisy before, but now only friendly ones. Seeing Glenn pick up his phone, he hurriedly sent her a message.

[Lust: Do we live here? 】

He had been to Chinatown several times in Japan, but he had never seen anything like this!

Glenn also turned his head and glanced at the square dancers. He was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face as well.

But her reply was: [I'm afraid not. I'm just here to pick up the car. The safe house Rum arranged for me is near the target group. 】

[The United States is the territory of his mortal enemy. He really doesn’t have many houses and manpower at his disposal. I can’t just change places. ] She apologized to him.

The rabbit was a little wilted, but he didn't say anything more. After all, he was completely brought here by Glenn, and she should be given priority in everything and should not cause any trouble to her.

He reluctantly retracted his head and no longer looked at the familiar scene.

……

The car Rum arranged for Glenn was a dark gray Ford, which sold well in the United States and had a relatively low-key appearance.

The car stopped in the parking lot in front of an apartment building. She went up the stairs and took the key to the fourth floor.

As soon as Glenn opened the door, a cold, musty smell that had not been occupied for a long time hit his face. She put down her things and checked for bugs and cameras before taking out the rabbit and putting it on the ground to open all the windows in the room.

The circulation of air gradually dissipated the smell, and the rabbit turned back into a human form. Black mist floated around the broken part of his neck. He looked at the furniture in the living room in front of him and raised his hand to wipe the nearest tabletop.

This touch left a lot of dust on his hands.

On the other side, Glenn came out of one of the bedrooms. From the door, he could see that the windows inside were open, the curtains were blown up by the wind, and the quilt inside looked dirty.

She said helplessly: "He only asked them to bring weapons, but didn't let them clean it. I have to go to the supermarket to buy cleaning tools and clean sheets and bedding... I hope this money can be reimbursed."

Rabbit knew that Glenn was a sniper, his effective range was about 700 yards, and he most commonly used an SVD sniper rifle. He twirled the dust on his fingertips and said nothing.

Glenn noticed his silence: "What's wrong?"

[I remember when I first started the game, Aoyagi... I mean 'furious', he said that he had just started the game not long ago, and he took me to the residence arranged for him by the organization. 】

He recalled the situation at that time, with complicated emotions surging in his heart.

[That should be considered his safe house, right? But when he entered, there was no sign of anyone living in the room, but it was very clean. We bought some things and checked in. 】

Rabbit lowered his head. He didn't see Glenn's expression at this time.

He looked at the backpack placed on the sofa and the newspaper she had just bought.

His English was average, but he recognized the sinister-looking man on the front page and the egg-like device.

This is the holographic game "Cocoon" that he once told Aoyagi Binguang. It will be able to be used by so many second-generation users at once in two years. It has obviously been tested several times before, and now may be the time for the internal testing to begin.

If it was in the past, he would definitely be interested in this, but now, he can't get excited at all.

——Wanting to find the true identity and organizational experience of [Rage] was the second reason why he came to the United States.

　The company has been quite busy recently, and my home has been renovated and I have to move back, so updates will be a bit slow_(:з」∠)_
