Who made you the face of the public [Zhongyingmei]

In a blink of an eye, Norma came to this world for several months, and she also stayed in Charles' school for several months. It was okay for a short time, but once the time went on, Norma would feel a little embarrassed.

Maybe it's because they come from different countries, and everyone has different ideas. For Norma, she can't accept it with peace of mind and just live here like this.

If she can, she still wants to be self-reliant.

So one day, Norma found Charles, who happened to be fine, and put forward her own idea.

"Charles, I want to...go out and see for yourself."

However, Charles may not understand such a euphemistic statement. Hearing Norma's words, Charles was a little puzzled: "You can go out at any time. I don't seem to restrict your freedom in life, right?"

Obviously, he thought that Norma just wanted to go shopping or something to tell him.

Norma was helpless: "I'm not saying that I want to go shopping." There is no need to explain this kind of thing to him. As he said, he did not restrict the freedom of life of people who came here.

Although he does love to worry about it.

"Then what do you mean?" Charles asked.

Norma sighed secretly: "I thought... At least I have to settle my living expenses, right? So I decided to go out and find a job."

Charles frowned: "Looking for a job in the world of ordinary people?"

Norma nodded.

"Although I support your idea, there are many things to pay attention to when working in the world of ordinary people. At least... you know, you can't reveal your identity."

Charles is still very worried about this point. Although ordinary people are much more accepting of mutants, it is still impossible for them to use their abilities at will. After all, it will bring them a lot of trouble.

Norma nodded: "I know this, I guarantee that I will not use my ability unless it is absolutely necessary."

Charles hesitated to speak, imagination is not something that can be banned, right?Although Norma has done a good job with his help in the past few months, and her ability has gradually stabilized. If she had more time, she might be able to use this ability better, but...

Sometimes when encountering certain things, people's thinking cannot be completely controlled.

But it seems that Norma can't listen to these words now!

He'd better change the direction: "But why did you have such an idea all of a sudden!"

Norma smiled: "Actually, Charles, I've always had this idea, but before...you know I'm not so familiar with everything here, and...Charles, I don't want to stay here and eat your food your."

Although they can be regarded as friends now, she and Charles have always been not relatives, and she can't stay here with peace of mind forever. "

Charles frowned: "Why not? You know I can afford it, and there are a lot of people in the school who are not as good as you... I mean one person's students, they all live here."

Realizing that he almost touched Norma's sadness, Charles changed his words. He still remembered what happened during their first training.

Norma smiled: "Well, although you think it's nothing, I don't want to increase your burden anymore, although you think you can afford it, but Charles... there will only be more and more students in this school in the future, right? "

It seems that she has already made up her mind. In this case, Charles is not reluctant: "So, have you found a suitable job?"

Norma shrugged, looking troubled: "Not yet! Let's go to the city and have a look!"

After all, there are more opportunities in the city no matter how you look at it.

Charles smiled: "You are looking far away! Didn't I tell you to be the teacher of the students?"

Norma refused: "Let's forget it, I feel schizophrenic when I am a student in the morning and a teacher in the afternoon, I still want to go out and have a look."

Norma has already made up his mind, and Charles will naturally not say anything more. He promised Norma: "Okay, let me know if you find a suitable job."

Now that Charles had agreed, Norma had no worries, so after lunch that day, Norma entered New York City alone.

Although what she said in front of Charles was very simple, in fact, Norma understands that it is not easy to find a suitable job. Let alone whether her major before crossing is right or not, even if she is right...

She didn't bring a college diploma or something with her through time travel!

So she had no choice but to lower her requirements, don't say anything about the company, look for restaurants and other places that recruit people to work!

Although the salary in this kind of place is not high, at least it is money!

Not to mention whether it is enough for living expenses, it is a good thing to make money.

Norma bought a newspaper and read it as she walked, trying to find out if there was any place that was recruiting people. However, it is obvious that companies that can advertise in newspapers are not small companies, so Norma read a few I didn't even look at it.

It is more appropriate to focus on the street.

Walking down a fairly busy street, Norma saw a job offer posted on the glass in front of a convenience store.

There is a door!Anyway, working part-time in a restaurant or a convenience store is similar, so it's better not to pick and choose in her current situation.

As for a better job, let's wait until she stabilizes for the time being!

Opening the door and entering the convenience store, Norma walked directly to the front desk. At this time, the cashier at the front desk was a woman in her 40s. She directly asked the other party: "Hello, I heard that you are recruiting here?"

The woman looked her up and down: "Yes, you want to work?"

Norma nodded: "I think this job is quite suitable for me." Anyway, in convenience stores and supermarkets in the United States, there are people at the cash register, and when there is no one, you can watch TV or something!

"...Aren't you still in school? We don't recruit students here."

Norma didn't know what expression to show for a moment. She knew that in the eyes of Americans, Asians were younger than their actual age, but how old was she in the eyes of the other party?

Although her current status is indeed a "student", her status as a student is not a real student!

Saying that she couldn't understand, Norma took out the ID that Hank had given her before: "I have an identity card."

The woman took a look and exchanged the ID to her: "It turns out that you are not a student, so it's easy to handle. One of our former migrant workers left, and it happened to send someone. You can come and try it, but this is a trial period." due."

"So you agreed? This is really great!" Norma was excited, the trial period is the trial period!She believes that she can survive the probationary period. Of course, although she doesn't plan to work in a convenience store for the rest of her life, good jobs have to be found slowly!

"If there is no problem, you can come to work tomorrow! We open before 10:[-] in the morning. Of course, because of the lack of people, your job is not only cash register, but sometimes you have to count the goods. By the way, where do you live?"

"Uh... just, I live near here." The boss asked, and Norma responded quickly.

How could she have forgotten this question?If you want to work in the New York City area, you must live near the city!But Xavier College is quite far from the city!In other words, if the door opens at 10 o'clock, it will take her more than an hour to drive, right?

After all, it is more convenient to live in the urban area, but...how can she live in the urban area?Is it possible to rent a house?

Renting a house or something... that's a big problem!It seems that she has to invest before she has any income in the early stage, but...as a poor and white person, she really doesn't want to find someone to borrow money to rent a house.

Especially looking for Charles.

She already owed him a lot, and if she asked him to borrow money, how would she pay it back?

How about...just ask Hank.

After walking out of the convenience store, Norma called Hank's cell phone.

"Hey, Hank!"

"Norma, what's the matter?" Hank was obviously puzzled when he received Norma's call, because most of the time they would meet in Charles' school, and there were very few things that needed to be communicated by phone.

"I just want to ask you, do you know any place in New York City where renting is cheaper?" If you have to pay first, then at least you can save money!

Hank was stunned: "A house? Do you want to rent a house?"

"Well, here's the thing..." Norma told Hank that she was going out to work, and told him that she needed to find a house in the urban area, which would be more convenient!

Let alone whether she can drive or not, even if she can drive, she doesn't want to drive for more than an hour every day to and from get off work!

Is the salary at the convenience store enough to pay for gas?

After knowing what Norma needs, Hank told Norma an unexpected news: "I remember Charles once had a house in the city, why don't you ask him? Let him put that house I will lend it to you."

huh huh?

That's a nice note!

Although she didn't want to rely on Charles for everything, it shouldn't be a problem to borrow his house!At worst, she will help him clean up every day.

If Charles agrees, then at least her daily commute time can be shortened a lot, and... she can find a new job at any time without any worries.

Upon receiving this good news, Norma turned back to the school without hesitation, and was going to discuss with Charles about borrowing his house.

But thinking about it is usually beautiful, but reality is usually cruel.

After Norma returned to school, she found Charles immediately. At this time, the afternoon classes had already ended, and dinner time had just begun.

"Charles, I heard from Hank that you have a house in the city? How about lending it to me temporarily?"

Charles looked at Norma and smiled, but said something that made Norma want to beat him up: "I do have a house in New York City, but I'm sorry I can't lend it to you."

"What? Why???" When will a good person reject others?
