Transforming American comics starts with a leap of faith

Chapter 24

"My name is Su Ge, and you haven't told me your name yet."

"Victoria."

"A triumph of Latin? A beautiful name."

Looking at Su Ge who was leading the way, Victoria was a little distracted.

This Chinese boy is simply the perfect template for a good boy in his heart.

Humble, courteous, helpful, sunny and handsome, and coming so early, the grades must be good too.

Wish Jinna could be like that too.

When I first met him, when I patted him on the shoulder, I actually felt a trace of murderous aura...

It should be an illusion. The boy took the initiative to lead the way when he heard that he didn't know where the principal's office was.

How could such a warm-hearted person have murderous intent!
Must be an illusion.

"The time is not so good now. It's already autumn. You can only see roses and gardenias. If you come in spring, you can see a garden full of tulips."

The young man smiled warmly and talked eloquently: "Some of them were personally invited by the principal from the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. They are very beautiful to open. It costs a lot of money to maintain them every year. You must like them when you see them."

Victoria: Wow, he knows a lot!
She grew up in Hell's Kitchen, so she didn't bother to know about flowers and plants.

Opened her mouth, Victoria didn't know how to answer it.

Fortunately, the boy didn't delay on this topic, and instead asked, "Is there anything special about your visit to the principal?"

Victoria felt that there was finally something she knew, and she replied with some embarrassment.

"I came here for my younger sister. She was very naughty when she first entered school. The principal invited me to have a talk."

This answer made Su Ge a little speechless.

He thought to himself: The guardian was interviewed by the school...I'm afraid it's not as simple as being naughty!

In any case, it doesn't look like this silly big sister is lying.In other words, she came here for a private matter, so...

I have nothing to do with rain.

Su Ge pointed and introduced the school buildings, and soon arrived at the main building.

With a friendly smile, he said, "After entering, go up to the fourth floor. There is a sign in the principal's office, which is very eye-catching."

Victoria: "Thank you, otherwise I would have had a hard time finding these crooked people."

Su Ge looked at his phone: "The principal doesn't go to work until nine o'clock. You can sit in the lounge on the first floor while you wait. By the way, what time did you make an appointment for...?"

Victoria looked confused: "Ah? Do you want to make an appointment?"

"..."

Su Ge took a deep breath.

I feel that this eldest sister is simply poisonous.

When I met him today, I almost exposed my hidden identity. When Su Ge finished his routine and was about to run away, he did it again.

Can this go away?

The character set from just now to the present has collapsed!

With the same smile, Su Ge said: "Suddenly I remembered that I also have something to ask Mr. Principal, so let's wait with you."

Victoria scratched her head, she just didn't have experience in this field, not really stupid, knowing that she seemed to be causing Su Ge a little trouble.

"I'll just wait by myself!" she said.

Su Ge pretended to be a warm man, so he naturally had to play it to the end.

"It's okay, let's go together."

Time passed quickly during the chat, and Su Ge didn't want to delay too much, so he knocked on the door of the principal's office as soon as nine o'clock arrived.

"Please come in." The principal is a very kind old man, who is trimming a few pots of succulents in front of the window.As the rumors say, this is an old man who loves plants.

Turning around and seeing Su Ge, the old gentleman was a little surprised, put down the scissors, wiped his hands, and said, "Mr. White, I don't remember asking you here."

The call panel jumps.

Su Ge's eyes moved slightly, and he said reservedly, "You really didn't invite me, Mr. Principal, I actually came here this time to ask for a leave in advance, and the time is one or two weeks later, spanning 5 to 10 days."

The kind old man nodded and said, "Just notify the school office when the time comes, and they will sign it."

See, that's the benefit of donating money to schools.

The headmaster turned his gaze to Victoria, and asked suspiciously, "Who is this?"

"I'm Victoria, Jinna's older sister."

The principal understood, just about to say that he usually handles this kind of thing in the afternoon, but he glanced at Su Ge beside her and pursed his lips.

I don't think there's anything wrong with dealing with it now.

Su Ge didn't listen to their conversation any more, and left with a smile.

After going out, he opened the panel calmly, and found that it was not Catherine... Su Gegang also lamented that Xiaojiali's work efficiency was ridiculously fast.

Graves [Outlaw Fanatic]: The municipal office is going to send someone to negotiate.

……

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Victoria finished her work for the day and returned to her small house in Queens exhausted.

A simple one-bedroom.

With private bathroom and kitchen, but no balcony.

Of course, the lighting and air are not very ideal.

But this is already the best house they can afford to rent.

Victoria knocked on the bedroom door and asked, "Gina?"

There was some movement in the house, but there was no answer, and Victoria smiled.

The little girl was kept at home for self-reflection because she violated the school rules and refused to mend her ways. In a fit of anger, I grounded her, so I guess she was still in trouble.

But fortunately, I didn't go out and run around.

Victoria went to get some food, told her sister to save some for her, and then lay down on the sofa to rest.

The life of a field agent is not good, the rest time is not fixed, and urgent tasks may appear at any time, so she usually seizes all the time to sleep.

Fortunately, she is full of energy and can recover after a very short sleep.

But today she was rarely sleepless.

That boy today reminded her of her life in Hell's Kitchen.

Such a bright boy, he certainly didn't need to use violence to show his viciousness when he was young...

And in Hell's Kitchen, a 12-year-old girl with a five-year-old sister, if not vicious enough, would be sold to France or the Netherlands that night.

Maybe even worse, sell it to Africa.

Victoria raised her right hand and saw the souvenirs that life had left her.

Fist cocoon and gun cocoon.

In Hell's Kitchen where the jungle preys on the jungle, only fists can protect you.

Fortunately, God treated her kindly. Although she took away her parents by accident, she was given her excellent body and fighting talent.

This talent finally impressed a small leader, and she joined the gang as she wished.

Victoria smiled to herself.

If he stayed in Hell's Kitchen, he should have become a high-level person.

After all, she was famous for being able to fight four years ago, and everyone said that she had a high possibility of "getting out".

The turning point came late at night, when she came home from "work" and saw some bastards giving her sister a cigarette.

Of course Victoria knew what was in that cigarette.

After beating those bastards with unprecedented rage, she stayed up all night.

Just thinking about what would happen to Jin Na if she came back a little late, she was covered in cold sweat.

Sisters can't grow up in Hell's Kitchen.

They moved out of this "promising" place early the next morning.

Naturally, they were discriminated against and misunderstood, and they worked many jobs, but they were all dismissed for various reasons.

It's funny that she ended up working as an auxiliary police officer.

Victoria later learned that these police officers were actually more vicious. The neighborhood they patrolled was haunted by vampires.

She almost died.

The blood slave's fangs were only five centimeters from her neck.

It was Coulson who saved her.

Although this bald man doesn't look very good, he is a very kind person.

He is even willing to give himself a job, although the job is tiring, dangerous and stressful.But it can bring good income.

This income allowed her to rent this small house and survive in New York. It also paid for Jinna to go to elementary school and middle school, and even saved 20 yuan. As long as she works harder, it will be enough for Jinna to finish her studies for a year. One of the best private high schools in the world, and can still go to college.

Putting down her clenched fist, Victoria let out a long breath.

She thought of that boy again.

That was the life she wanted her sister to have, leisurely, safe, away from violence and drugs, knowing flowers and plants, not knives and guns.

As long as Jin Na can have a bright future, whether it's a doctor or a lawyer, any job that doesn't involve life and death is fine, and then she can live her life happily.

It's all worth it.

"Are tulips really beautiful?" she thought, "I must see them next spring..."

Although times are tough right now.

But life will get better if you try hard enough, right?
