Shadow of the Beautiful World

Early the next morning, when the three members of the astronomy team got into the car and were about to leave the town for the airport, Daisy saw Thor coming out of the garage after changing his clothes and carrying a package on his back. .

Huh? Thor, why don't you... Where are you going?

Daisy asked curiously:

Aren't you going to come with us?

Well, things have changed a bit, and it's hard for me to explain to you, Daisy.

Thor scratched his head, he took out an acceptance letter from his pocket, handed it to Daisy, and said:

But I got this last night.

let me see.

Daisy opened the letter, looked at it for a few seconds, and then let out a scream:

Jane! Jane! Come and see! Thor has been admitted to Columbia University, and he's going to study in New York!

What?

Sitting in the car, Jane who was starting the car was stunned for a moment. She turned her head and greeted Thor with an embarrassed expression.

The two had sex after drinking last night. The things that happened were indeed unforgettable, but that was a secret that belonged to the two of them.

Yes, Merlin was right.

The relationship between these two people is more of an affair. When it comes to true love, it really hasn't reached that point yet.

She took the acceptance letter from Daisy. After reading it, she was full of doubts. She looked at Thor and asked:

Donald Blake?

I have no idea.

Thor knew what Jane's question was, but he couldn't answer it. He got into the car depressed and whispered to Jane:

It may have been arranged by my mother. That's what the strange deliveryman said last night. He said that a kind lady named Frigga picked up my lost things, including passports, driver's licenses, etc.

Frigg is my mother's name.

Yeah?

Jane looked at Thor, and she also saw undisguised bewilderment and helplessness in Thor's eyes.

Obviously, this guy is ready to wander the world, but now he suddenly has a normal life in front of him, which makes him not know how to choose.

This sudden event also makes the atmosphere between Thor and Jane strange and awkward.

Obviously we agreed to break up because we were going to say goodbye, but...

In the blink of an eye, the two of them will take another plane to New York, and they don't know that fate has tricked people. Jane will finish her doctoral career at Columbia University in the future, which means that these two are likely to be just Friends who want to have a one-night stand will become long-term alumni in the future.

This development is really...

Jane is a little confused, but Daisy beside her is full of energy as usual. This crazy girl is already discussing the issue of renting with Thor. She is also a student of Columbia University, but her major is philosophy and politics. study.

The reason why she appeared in Jane's research group was because she wanted to take advantage of the summer vacation to get enough credits, that's all.

You can live with me first, Thor.

The energetic Daisy patted her overly plump chest, and said to the preoccupied Thor:

Flying back to New York today, the new semester will start in 3 days, and it's too late for you to find a house. I just need someone to help me share the rent. You can cook, right?

It's just right, we can partner together, and we can save a lot of living expenses.

This carefree girl stretched out her hand and patted Thor's shoulder, and then wiped the oil on Thor's toned waist. She said:

It's such a happy decision! My new roommate, uh, the first thing we do when we go back may be to clean up and tidy up your house. My place...is a bit messy.

A few hours later, a clean, trendy-looking taxi stopped on the street outside Hell's Kitchen to the sound of festive music.

Du Pengde, a former taxi driver who took advantage of the weekend vacation to run business and missed his life, glanced at the meter, and then said to a man and a woman behind him:

$61.7, I charge you 61.

Hey, Dubender, isn't it too expensive?

Daisy patted Dupont's actions with dissatisfaction, and she screamed:

It used to be $50! We've known each other for so long, and you're killing me?

My car used to burn oil, but now it's expensive.

Dupont shrugged helplessly at Daisy, an exaggerated smile appeared on his always smiling face, he put his hands on the steering wheel, and said to Daisy:

Just kidding, it's rare that you still remember me, this time I will pick up friends home for free...

Speaking of which, is this handsome blond guy your boyfriend? He's much better than the bad guy before.

His name is Thor. He's my friend. Don't talk nonsense, Dubender.

When Daisy heard that no money was needed, she immediately smiled.

She opened the car door, got out of the car with Thor, and Thor took it out of the trunk to salute, while Daisy stood on the side of the road and chatted with Dupont.

Speaking of which, it seems that I haven't seen you in Manhattan recently, Dupont, do you stop driving a taxi?

The energetic Daisy asked:

And Geeta is gone, did you go back to India to get married?

Not married yet, but soon.

Dupont leaned against the window and said to Daisy:

Me, I changed jobs, but I still occasionally run taxis on weekends. I always miss this feeling of running around, and I like to chat with people and discuss music...

Drip

There was a sudden hissing sound on the dashboard of Dupont's taxi, which changed the expression of the Indian brother. He quickly stretched out his hand and said to Daisy:

Give me a high five! Wish me luck today.

Snapped

Daisy waved and gave Dupont a high-five, and then watched Dupont's taxi start as a sports car, and quickly disappeared into the street corner in front of her.

Is that your friend?

Thor was leaning on a cane and carrying a box, he said to Daisy suspiciously:

Also, are all the taxis in New York so expensive?

I don't know either...Maybe Dupont got rich, don't think about it, let's clean up the house first.

Daisy turned and walked to her apartment, and Thor followed her. Just after taking a few steps, Thor suddenly felt a chill coming from behind him.

He turned his head vigilantly, and saw a dog in a black shirt squatting there sticking out his tongue in the alley next to the apartment, and on the chair next to the dog, a big orange cat was staring at him, licking paws.

Thor and the big orange cat looked at each other, and there was an indescribable sense of threat in his heart, which made him stop where he was, as if he was being stared at by a monster, and dared not move.

Thor?

Daisy, who had already walked into the apartment, called out, but when Thor didn't respond, she came out again, and saw Thor standing still, playing a game of staring with a cat.

Hey, Gugu, and Frank, long time no see.

When Daisy saw the cat and the dog, she immediately ran over, knelt down, helped Frank smooth his hair, and helped Gu Gu straighten the bell hanging around his neck.

She seems to be very familiar with this cat and dog.

A few minutes later, Thor followed Daisy into the elevator, and he asked:

The dog and the cat...

Oh, that's the back street family's pet, and they often come to play on this street.

Daisy said to Thor:

Googoo is quite fierce. I fed it for several weeks before it allowed me to touch it. Frank is very obedient, but he has a big appetite and eats a lot every time.

Speaking of which, I really miss it and haven't seen the little girls in that family's house for a long time. They are all cute and polite, and the neighbors around like them.

But their elder brother is quite mysterious. I heard that they have lived here for more than ten years. I grew up here too, but I haven't seen him a few times.

Ding

The elevator door opened the next moment, and Daisy brought Thor to her apartment. She pushed the door open, then stretched out her hand, made a gesture of please, and exaggeratedly said to Thor:

Your Highness, this will be your bedroom from now on.

Well...

Thor stood at the door, looking at the chaotic room with almost nowhere to go, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he said to Daisy:

It's not 'a little' messy, is it? Even the toilets in the Golden Palace are cleaner than this house!

That's why two people are needed to clean up.

Daisy shrugged, and she said to Thor:

I waived your first month's rent! Don't talk nonsense, come and help! Come on, show the energy and spirit you had when you were bragging in the desert.

Thor was forced to pick up the broom and began to help Daisy tidy up the messy room.

Seriously, if it was the former Thor, he wouldn't have stayed here for a second, but for more than 2 months, the weakness of losing power is forcing Thor to live in a new way , to make him patient.

He didn't have too many complaints. In fact, after leaving the endless war career, he didn't need to prepare for battle every day, which made his heart calm.

The life of a mortal is very boring. For a prince who once traveled among the stars, this kind of life is like a waste of time.

But it is not. Thor is observing the lives of mortals and the civilization of the people on earth. He is earnestly learning how to be a mortal.

It's not because he has despaired of his exile, on the contrary, he is still as determined as before, and he still believes that the things he did before are all right.

But now, Thor has a new understanding. He once vowed to protect the order of the Nine Kingdoms and his own people, but to protect, he must first understand.

To be a true protector, one must first blend in.

This arduous cleaning lasted until night, Torrey was out of breath, and he was more tired than killing a hundred frost giants on the battlefield.

And in order to reward Thor, Daisy paid for it out of her own pocket and invited him to drink at Josie's bar, the best in Hell's Kitchen.

As a result, as soon as the two arrived at the bar, they saw a thin man in a windbreaker walking out of Josie's bar, accompanied by a slightly drunk lady.

Ah, Mr. Merlin! Good evening.

Daisy stopped immediately and greeted Merlin. Merlin nodded to Daisy with a gentle expression while supporting Agent Hill who was walking a bit shaky.

He knew the girl.

Her name is Daisy, and she lives on the street in front of his house. She grew up in Hell's Kitchen, but soon, Merlin's eyes fell on the handsome blond guy with a cane and a little limp beside Daisy. body.

Who is this?

Merlin asked softly, and Daisy hurriedly introduced:

This is To... er, Donald, my roommate and Columbia medical student.

Well, you are really young and promising.

While Merlin was talking, he extended his hand to Thor in a friendly manner. Thor hesitated for a moment, and reached out to hold Merlin's hand.

Young people should drink less alcohol and go home earlier so their parents don't worry.

Merlin held Hill's slender waist, and the two of them would drink at Josie's bar almost every half a month, chat and relax, and Hill seldom got drunk.

But she drank a little too much tonight, and Merlin had to send her back.

While exhorting Daisy and Thor in the tone of an old man, he waved goodbye to them, and then stretched out his hand on the side of the street. Soon, Dupont's taxi stopped on the side of the road.

Merlin helped Hill to sit in the car, and he sat on the other side of the car. He looked at Thor who walked into the bar through the car window. He narrowed his eyes and said softly:

Hello, Neighbor Thor, we meet again.

The moment Dupont's taxi started, Merlin's eyes fell on the ceiling of Josie's bar again.

There, a black raven with beautiful blue feathers was parked on the signboard of the bar, shaking its head and jumping wildly following the music from the bar.

Merlin waved at it, and amidst the raven's shrill cry, the taxi quickly left the block.

Raven Munin greeted the departing Merlin with a very rude slang, and after watching Merlin disappear, the raven reported to Odin who was commanding the war in Jotunheim:

Everything is fine, boss. Thor has begun to adapt to this world. He has also made a bunch of 'friends.'

We will help you watch him, and we will report any situation as soon as possible.

Everything is up to us, boss, you don't need to worry.

And in the night sky behind Mu Ning, the dark red spirit raven Victor is also quietly flying in the night...

Merlin doesn't want to interfere with Thor's life on Earth, but Thor's identity determines that if something happens to him, it will definitely trigger a super big event.

Although Odin let go, if Thor died on the earth, he could only say that Thor's fate was like this, but if it is similar to this, just listen to it.

If Merlin really took it seriously, he is the biggest fool, and King Odin may treat it fairly, but the problem is that Odin is not just a king, he is also a father.

Therefore, Merlin had to pay more attention to Thor's side, so that he could stay in New York peacefully.

It's best to be right under Merlin's nose, so that no matter what happens, Merlin can be more sure.

Dupender, do you know the girl just now?

Merlin was sitting in the taxi of the noise of SHIELD's advanced combat unit, and said to Dupont, the human liaison officer of noise:

You're friends with her, aren't you?

Did you mean Daisy Louise? Sir.

Dupont, driving the car in manual mode, replied:

We do know each other. When I was a taxi driver, she was a frequent customer. I still remember when she was a child, I often drove her to find delicious food in the streets and alleys of New York. She was a very good-tempered girl.

What's the matter, sir, is there a problem with Daisy?

No, she didn't, but her friend is a person with a complicated background.

Merlin leaned on the back seat and let the sleeping Hill rest his head on his shoulders. He put the windbreaker on Hill and said to Dupont:

Starting today, you have one more task, Dupont, watch Daisy and her friends more for me, protect their safety, and if they encounter an emergency, intervene in time, but don't reveal your identity.

Does that mean I can drive a rental car again, sir.

Dubender asked in surprise.

Yes, you can.

Merlin shook his head helplessly, and said:

But you'd better change to an ordinary car. If you insist on driving 'Noisy' as a taxi, then you should be responsible for your own profits and losses.

Don't expect me to subsidize you again.
