Dream Guide - #339 - Chapter 339 You are my assistant
The cold winter in the Northern Hemisphere coincides with the hottest season in the South Pacific.
When he first came out of the airport, Aoki felt a little uncomfortable facing the dazzling sunlight.
Compared with China, Auckland is like an airless world. The sky is so blue that it feels unreal. A few clouds float lazily in the distance, like wallpaper on a sapphire screen.
The sun hangs high above the head, without any dust to block it, and it shines freely, tilting the buildings to reflect a strange light. Ultraviolet rays are also unscrupulous, leaving brown marks on human skin.
Su Huilan put on sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat. A white shawl was draped over her shoulders, wrapping her arms. Seeing Aoki’s unchanged appearance for thousands of years, she asked curiously:
“In the middle of winter when the temperature is below zero, if you wear a windbreaker, you are in good health! But it is summer in New Zealand right now and the sun is blazing. Are you still wearing a windbreaker because you are afraid that no one on the street in Auckland will recognize you? “
Aoki’s outfit really attracted people’s attention, and many people pointed at him. It seems that everyone has a tendency to gossip, and it’s the same everywhere he goes.
The security guards at the airport watched him warily and even brought in a big wolf dog. However, no matter whether it was a person or a dog, they all walked away obediently when they came in front of him, as if ignoring his existence.
Su Huilan came over and said softly: “You are obstructing official business.”
Aoki said: “I didn’t do anything.”
Su Huilan said: “It is against the convention to hypnotize people at will in public places. If the alliance is still there, you may be charged.”
“What convention? What alliance?” Aoki asked in shock.
He knew that Su Huilan had strong mental power and had extremely unique and subtle control over it. He had also vaguely felt that she had something to do with the Awakened Alliance, but it was not convenient to ask more. But this time, Su Huilan took the initiative to mention it in her words. Aoki didn’t know if she let it slip, was hinting at something, or was it a test for herself?
However, Su Huilan stopped talking and dragged her suitcase forward while shaking her head with a smile, “Forget it, I’d better stay away from you so as not to get involved by you.”
Aoki quickly caught up.
This was Auckland, a place he was unfamiliar with. If he lost Su Huilan, he wouldn’t know how to get to the camp on Lapa Island, and no one there would know him.
He only carried a black backpack, because it was summer in New Zealand and he didn’t need to change clothes, so he brought very few things. Life Shenghua had to prepare this for him.
Apart from a credit card, he didn’t have any money with him. It was useless to bring RMB anyway. Of course, he didn’t know that Yisheng spent two thousand dollars stuffed in his bag, probably for his emergency needs, so he didn’t tell him. He never opened the bag to look at it because he felt that the contents in the bag would rarely be used.
He found that following an unfamiliar woman to a strange place was not a wise decision. It would have been much easier to follow Shi Dazhuang to southern Yunnan. But there is really no other way. He is going to the Cook Islands in the Pacific. If he hadn’t taken this opportunity, there would be nothing he could do. He couldn’t just run around among the islands in the South Pacific like a headless fly.
Su Huilan quickly walked up to a young man holding a sign.
The young man immediately asked politely: “Are you Professor Su from Columbia University?”
“Yes.”
“Oh great, I was sent by Professor Field to pick you up.”
The young man enthusiastically took the luggage from Su Huilan, and then saw Aoki standing next to Su Huilan, “Are you the professor’s assistant? Hello, my name is Pierce.”
Without waiting for Aoki’s answer, Pierce thrust the suitcase into Aoki’s hands and said, “Professor Su, wait a moment, I’ll bring the car over.”
Aoki pulled the suitcase’s lever and was dumbfounded. At this time, Pierce was already jogging towards a Toyota car.
Su Huilan spread her hands towards Qingmu and couldn’t help but smile: “You are my assistant!”
Aoki was helpless and waited for Pierce to drive over, then put Su Huilan’s luggage into the trunk before getting into the car. He sat in the passenger seat and Su Huilan sat in the back seat.
Speaking of which, this Toyota was old and worn out, and looked a bit old, but Pierce drove it happily, chatting with Aoki in the passenger seat:
“My car is pretty good, right? Driving is much faster than taking the subway. Auckland’s subway is as slow as an oxcart. There are too few buses. You can walk from Auckland to Hamilton while waiting for the bus!”
“Your name is Qin mu? Oh, what a good name. I know Qin Shi Huang, the greatest emperor of China. Do you have the same surname? Are you his descendant?”
“Is this your first time in New Zealand? Then you are right to come to Auckland. This is the best city in New Zealand. Don’t go to Wellington or Christchurch. They have it, Auckland has it, and Auckland has it. They don’t.”
…
Pierce’s chatter reminded Aoki of the coal boss, and just two hours later, he saw the crow that was about to go crazy.
“I’m going to die!” The coal boss jumped on Aoki’s head and shouted as soon as he saw him.
“What’s wrong?” Aoki asked.
“They feed me bugs every day! Do you know bugs?” Crow pointed at Shen Ran next to him and said, “She also has cat food and sausages to eat, but I can only eat those disgusting bugs!”
“Why didn’t you tell them you wanted steak?”
“I haven’t spoken since I got off the plane. That’s one of the reasons I said I was going to die.”
“Why?” Aoki couldn’t imagine what a coal boss who silently ate bugs looked like.
Crow said: “You don’t know how scary these scientific paranoids are! If they hear me speak, they will lock me up like a guinea pig and then dissect my brain and throat. Gua, it’s so scary!” “
Qingmu looked at Su Huilan worriedly.
Su Huilan said: “Don’t worry, your bird belongs to someone. To put it bluntly, your bird now belongs to me in name. They will not do any harm to him without my consent.”
Um…why does it sound so awkward? Aoki scratched his head.
The crow ignored it and said, “Okay, professor, since I belong to you for the time being, can you take me to have a good meal first? If you don’t have the sauced pork elbow, the sauced beef will do.”
“no problem!”
Su Huilan agreed and took them to a very unique restaurant.
The coal boss had a delicious meal, caressing his belly with his wings, lying on the dining chair, burping, and said: “Ruhua’s sauced elbow is still delicious, foreign meat is too rough. ,belch–“
Beside her, Shen Ran had already snored into sleep.
While eating, Qingmu asked Su Huilan about her next trip and specific arrangements.
Su Huilan said: “Tomorrow morning’s flight will go to Tubuai Island, and then take a boat to the camp in Lapa. As for when we get there…what do you think?”
Aoki said: “I am your assistant, of course I will listen to you.”
Su Huilan smiled and said: “I don’t dare to really treat you as an assistant!”
