Chapter 246 The Wind Rises
On Puente Hill, in an open space outside the small town of Antika, two RVs, one large and one small, were parked side by side.Tonight's starry sky is extraordinarily bright, and it seems impossible to see that this place was hit by a very strong sandstorm at the same time yesterday. The modern term "light pollution" seems to be insulated from this place.
Daisy sat in the driver's seat in the front of the car, chewing gum, and looked at the huge RV beside her with some curiosity.Compared with the one she was in at the moment, the size of the one next to her was almost the same as Yao Ming standing in front of a three-year-old child.Behind Daisy's seat, a young woman sat side by side with Eric, intently looking at the data displayed on the laptop.
Well, I wasn't very focused, at least the woman didn't—"Doctor, why did you bring so many people here? They are too noisy. I can't concentrate on reading the data at all." The woman's ears were full The sound of music coming from the RV next to him seemed to be unbearable to the sound of the song.
But her two companions were not disturbed. Daisy in the driver's seat writhed with the joyful music, and even Dr. Eric tapped his fingers on his knees every time.Seeing the woman staring at him all the time, Eric touched his nose a little embarrassedly, and explained: "Well, I thought there were only three or four people at first, but I didn't expect there to be so many."
"But have you forgotten, we need storm data, and the less interference from the surrounding magnetic field, the better. That's why we came so far away from the town." The woman looked at Eric seriously, and Eric Ke stretched out his hands to signal her to calm down, "Jane, listen to my sophistry, no, explain, they promised me that they would obediently turn off all devices when needed."
"Eric, tell me the truth, what kind of benefits did they give you?" The woman called "Jane" stared into Eric's eyes.Under pressure, Eric told the truth: "They took out [-] U.S. dollars, but I didn't agree to bring them, and then they added another pile on top."
"That's all you agreed to? I bought you for $[-]?"
"Taking the money back is an insult to the academics, the research team, and my personality." Eric turned his head shyly, "I wanted to reject them like this, but the money is too much."
"Don't blame the doctor so much, Jane, the doctor is also for the sake of the team. And I think, their songs are quite nice." Daisy, who likes music, turned her head from the driver's seat, looking behind and scolding Eric. simple.
At this time, something seemed to knock on the car window twice. Jane, who was sitting by the window, quickly opened the curtain that covered the interior, opened the window, and looked out of the car.Chris was standing outside the car, holding some sausages pierced by bamboo sticks: "Dr. Eric, we have prepared a lot of sausages, do you need some?"
As he spoke, he handed over the sausage.Because of the basic structure of Eric's RV, the height of the window is basically higher than the position of the head. Fortunately, Chris is quite tall, otherwise Natasha would have to lift it above his head, saying You may have to tiptoe to deliver it.
The grilled sausage seems to be baked at low temperature and slowly. While the outer casing is guaranteed to be basically unbroken, the inner gravy is completely dissolved and soaked in the gap between the meat and the meat, which is really mouth-watering.Eric was about to say thank you and take the sausage, but Jane held him back.
Glancing at Eric, she reached out her hand to stop him from approaching the window. Jane returned Chris with a gentle smile: "Sir, thank you very much for your kindness. But Dr. Eric has a stomachache. It's great, I can't eat meat." She didn't dislike travelers like Chris too much, after all, they also spent money to see the aurora.
In the end, the blame was on Eric, who was moved by the money, rather than a group of passing tourists, not to mention that they kindly came to share the food they made.So Jane's attitude towards Chris is pretty good, but she doesn't accept the food he brought. The first reason is that Eric needs to understand what she did wrong. The second reason is that the sausage is too fragrant, which will hinder her from concentrating on research. data.
It's just that, Jane stopped Eric, but failed to stop Daisy who was sitting in the front driver's seat: "Hey handsome guy, here, here. Wow, it's so fragrant, your craftsmanship is very good, my mouth is watering It's gone." She completely ignored Jane's vicious glance at her, and just like Minmei who couldn't read the atmosphere, she took the three sausages prepared for the three of them from Chris at once.
"Haha, this beautiful lady, as long as you like it. It's just that I didn't make it. I'm ashamed to say that my cooking skills are not very good. The one who made these sausages was another big in our car. Handsome guy, his name is Steve." Chris was not stingy, after all, it was just some sausages.Furthermore, these sausages were originally prepared for them, and it doesn't matter if there are three sausages per person.
"Steve? This name always makes me feel that he must be a good man with a short stature but a strong character." Daisy said carelessly, and then realized that she was speaking ill of other people's friends in front of others. He quickly apologized, "I'm really sorry, sir, I'm so used to being outspoken, I didn't mean to speak ill of your friend."
"It's okay, it's okay, actually you're right, that guy Steve is indeed a nice guy with a good personality, if he wasn't married, I would definitely introduce the two of you to each other." What Chris said in his mouth was actually Thinking that if Carter wasn't there this time, he would definitely arrange for you two to have a blind date and then send the secretly taken photos to Carter, so that he could watch Steve being beaten by Carter again.
Regardless of Carter's age now, his personality is actually the same as when he was young.If Chris did it, maybe he could actually see Carter chasing Steve with a crutch that he didn't need much.But what he didn't know was that before he had the idea of digging a hole for Steve, Steve, who had been punished so many times, was going to punish Chris once.
"Then, two ladies, Professor Eric, I'll go back to the car first, and just say hello if we need to turn off the device." With that, Chris was about to go back to the car.At this moment, the alarm clock set by Jane rang, which made her immediately stop Chris who had just opened the car door: "Please wait a moment, sir."
"Chris, my name is Chris. What's the matter, ma'am?" Chris turned his head and looked at Jane who stopped him. The other people in the car heard Jane's shout, and their mouths were full of barbecue. Barton with lettuce poked his head out.
"Well, I'm really sorry, Mr. Chris. If possible, we are going to turn off all the devices that interfere with the magnetic field." Jane's face showed a trace of apology, "My name is Jane, Jane Foss special."
"It's okay, Miss Jane, this is part of what was agreed in advance." Chris smiled back, and then said to the car, "Sailors, put down the anchor, we are going to dock."
"Okay Captain," Bucky said jokingly, turning off the jukebox.Natasha, who was sitting in the driver's seat, also turned off the car.Steve used the volcanic rocks he bought from the scenic spot a few days ago when he made sausages today, instead of using an oven, so the unfinished sausages were still making a "sizzling" sound.
Daisy also turned off the engine of the RV, and Jane opened the door on the roof of the RV, and leaned out with Eric to the roof position.She was still holding a self-made magnetic field monitor in her arms, turned it on, and transmitted the data to her mobile phone, and a program written by Jane started to run.
With Chris muttering "Jane Foster? This name sounds familiar" and Daisy muttering "Chris? This name is familiar", the time for the storm that Jane predicted has arrived.
