Tokyo: My Super Powers are updated every week
Chapter 417: Having a gun in your hand makes you heartbroken
Chapter 417: Having a gun in your hand makes you heartbroken
The time in New York is thirteen hours behind Tokyo. When Tokyo goes into the night, New York welcomes Monday morning.
David woke up from inside the tent.
He had mostly forgotten about his conversation with the president on Air Force One last night.
And let’s make it clear again: the president is too old and often forgets what he is talking about during conversations.
He will get better again after a while and can communicate with people intermittently.
If it were an ordinary old man, David believed that the other person would be a grandfather with a slightly kind attitude and needed respect.
president……
With all due respect, that job is really not suitable for Nate, and he hopes to retire as soon as possible next year.
David stood up and opened the tent.
In an instant, various flash lights came on, and he found a large group of reporters surrounding the tent.
“Hello, I’m a reporter for Fox,” “I’m a reporter for The New York Times,” “I’m a reporter for the Associated Press.”
They all spoke together, their voices seemed very noisy, and the microphone was handed to them, all trying to get the right to name him first.
Such a scene made David instantly confused. He had no idea what was going on. He could only find a familiar-looking blonde female reporter among the crowd, raised his hand and said, "Tell me first, what happened?"
"Yes, Mr. David, I want to ask, what are your thoughts on running for mayor of New York?"
Shelia pushed through the crowd and handed over the microphone with an excited expression on her face.
"what?"
Dai Wei was confused.
An unemployed person who sleeps in a tent runs for mayor of New York City. What kind of international joke is this?
Besides, if he remembered correctly, the mayor of New York had just been elected not long ago.
"I don't think I ever said I would run for election."
"Among the three candidates currently nominated by the Democratic Party, you have the highest support rate."
"Hey, wait, what happened to the former mayor of New York?"
“He held a press conference last night to announce his resignation, believing that only you who are chosen by the Lord are qualified to serve as the mayor of New York City.
Voting begins today. "
Shelia's tone was very exciting. Previously, she didn't quite believe that David was given divine power by the Lord.
It wasn't until the White House admitted the existence of other worlds and monsters that Shelia began to re-examine David's deeds. After careful investigation, she found that this person was really a resident employee who abused drugs and made zero-dollar purchases. He belonged to that group. A man who fits the popular image of African-American men.
Overnight, he suddenly became better and stronger.
It seems impossible to say that there is no blessing from the Lord.
David's face was still confused. He remembered that the president seemed to have told him last night that he wanted to promote him and let him work hard.
But he never expected that the other party would actually let him run for mayor of New York City.
The original mayor of New York actually resigned on his own initiative.
“What is your campaign platform?”
David was stunned. How could he understand that? He could only recall in his mind his previous experience of living in the slums and God's teachings to him.
He said: "If I become the mayor of New York, I must rectify the local public security, crack down on those arrogant gangs, crack down on all kinds of drug sales, and strictly prohibit anyone from touching that kind of thing.
Clean up the filth in the city.
The most important thing is to ban guns. "
He said this with an affirmative tone. Having stayed in the slums, he understood how dangerous the abuse of guns is to people and children.
Adults sometimes get carried away with anger, let alone those teenagers.
In a moment of anger, they may not care about anything else, just draw a gun and fire at the friend who has angered them.
Then, by the time they calmed down, they had made an irreversible mistake.
The lost life cannot be brought back, and the future life can only gradually slide into the abyss.
In the slums, David had seen too much of that kind of tragedy, and he hoped to prevent it if possible.
……
After getting rid of the questioning of those reporters, David continued to want to find a place to work.
He still didn't have high expectations about being selected.
Although the power of the president is great, this is the United States, and it is far from the president's turn to dominate the world here.
What's more, the words he put forward, apart from the civilians, seriously affected the interests of the upper class in New York, and it was impossible to come to power.
David thought to himself and started to calculate his current money. If he wanted to use it for a few more days, he might as well save some money.
Choose the cheapest burger for breakfast.
Vegetables and meat are so expensive that he can't afford them.
David stopped in front of a burger restaurant and said, "Please bring me two spicy chicken drumsticks and a medium Coke."
"it is good."
The African-American female clerk who works in the store responded. Her bloated figure does not affect her movements of loading burgers, like a ruthless burger loading machine.
She quickly packed two burgers and a cup of Coke, and when she handed them over, she realized that the man in front of her was somewhat familiar.
The female clerk took a closer look and shouted, “David Upchurch, my God, have you really seen the Lord?
"Well, I have seen the presence of the Lord with my own eyes."
"Please be sure to take a photo with me."
The woman's face was full of surprise.
David shook his head and said, "Sorry, I'm not a big star, so I can't take a photo with you." "The first person in the United States to see God is more noble than those stars!"
"I'm not noble."
David still shook his head and refused. Worldly fame and fortune were just a thing of the past.
He must not sink into it like he did before.
After paying, he left with his burger and Coke, walked on the street, took out his old mobile phone, and started searching job search websites to see where labor was needed.
He took a bite of his burger, occasionally snorted a Coke, and looked through the jobs with his index finger. The prices were so low that they didn't meet New York's minimum wage.
David sighed slightly in his heart.
This bustling metropolis is too hard for a low-level person like him.
How many people who cherished the American dream had their dreams shattered here.
The pursuit of freedom and democracy has ultimately become a tent that affects the appearance of the city.
David came to a square, heard his own voice here, and subconsciously looked up. He saw his campaign platform being played on the advertising screen outside the department store.
"How is this going?"
David looked surprised. He didn't remember having the money to pay for that kind of advertising.
"Hey, this is not my good brother, David. Do you still remember me?"
Suddenly, a slap hit David on the shoulder from behind. A tall man with the same skin color squeezed over and said with a smile on his face: "I am Sandy."
David looked confused and said, "Do we know each other?"
"Of course we know each other, don't you remember? Last month we met each other on this street, and I even shared a piece of ham sausage with you."
The man introduced himself in a very exaggerated tone, and hurriedly waved: "Hey, everyone, come and see, this is David Upchurch who saw God!"
As soon as he finished speaking, David grabbed his hand on his shoulder and shook it, which immediately caused Sandy to break out in cold sweat on his forehead and his body bent unconsciously.
David's eyes were cold and he said: "It doesn't matter what you want to say about me, but if you call the Lord in such a frivolous tone, do you think you can say whatever you want about the Lord?
God loves the world, and the world should respect God.
Next time you dare to call the Lord casually in that tone of voice seeking a young lady, I will break your hand off! "
"Okay, okay, I understand."
Sandy begged for mercy. He felt as if his hand was being pressed by an elephant and his bones were about to shatter.
David let go of his hand and continued walking forward. He didn't care about the eyes of others, or what slander or dirty water Sandy would throw at him next.
He just needs to stick to his own path.
Be a good person.
And what kind of person can be called a good person?
David couldn't describe it in too profound words. He could only say that judging things from the simplest values, if he finds something disgusting, it must be a bad thing.
……
Tuesday, July 25th.
There was a hint of coolness on my face in the early morning in Tokyo.
Qingze woke up, but had no intention of getting up, enjoying the feeling of staying in bed.
He took out his mobile phone and started watching videos online.
Taking turns browsing YouTube and Douyin, he found that major bloggers were still very interested in exploring other worlds and monsters, and even made up many weird and bizarre incidents.
The back hill that cannot be walked out smoothly, the cursed CD, the sound in the school corridor at midnight.
Anyone who breaks into the abandoned mansion will be stripped naked and thrown out of the mansion by the ghost.
Oh, this is not fake.
This is the real incident that Qingze wrote in the Book of Destiny last night.
In his setting, there is an abandoned Japanese-style mansion in Arakawa District. There is a female ghost in white hidden inside. She likes to strip off all the clothes of people who enter the mansion and then throw them outside.
The duration of existence is three days.
Because his setting is to throw three people into it on different days and times.
Out of curiosity, the three people entered the mansion where no one dared to enter, and then were stripped naked and thrown out.
Today is the second day, and the man being recorded will appear in the afternoon.
In the morning, he asked Akizuki Iroha to explore the mansion.
Qingze opened the chat history with Qiuyue Caiyu, and there was a big OK emoticon there.
Although Aozawa will not directly use the Book of Destiny on Akizuki Iroha, things like this will increase their interest in each other.
He was still willing to try.
Qingze stood up like a carp, jumped to the closet, opened it, and found a piece of loose blue printed fabric inside.
The plan was to use this piece of cloth to cover his and Caiyu's bodies to ensure that no trace of Caiyu's love would leak out.
The two of them were naked, clinging to each other on the street looking for clothes. Just thinking about it made Qingze excited.
He grabbed the floral cloth, folded it neatly on the bed, and then walked outside the house. He flicked his finger through the YouTube video and jumped to news related to New York.
The mayor of New York resigned, and David was nominated to run for the mayor's position. He chanted the slogan of banning guns, and his support rate was far ahead.
Netizens in the comment area include supporters and opponents who do not support.
In the eyes of opponents, the United States is free, so why should it ban people from holding guns?
Qingze thought, this campaign platform is the book of destiny, otherwise he would not be able to come to power.
He slid his index finger to the next video and walked out the door.
