Chapter 320 I don’t often mention her, but I often think of her
It was already seven o'clock in the evening when Tommy arrived in Flagstaff, Arizona, but he was still warmly received by Eric and his wife. They took him to taste Flagstaff's unique secret meat burger and red stone volcano ice cream.
Eric's wife is a Texan and now works as a professor at Northern Arizona University. Their children also live in Texas, because Eric's wife's family has a large farm in Texas. The children can ride horses, fly airplanes and spray pesticides, and You can also entrust grandparents to take care of them, saving a lot of nanny fees.
As for Eric, just like when he was young, he spent more than half of every year flying around the world, dealing with various geological landforms. He found this job very interesting, because earthquakes are more unpredictable than human beings.
The two talked about a lot of interesting things that happened in college. Tommy told Eric that Stanford SSD's new recruitment methods are too BT. They would put coins in the rookie's anus, and then another rookie would hit the head with an air hammer. Let the coins fall.
Eric smiled and said that he would write to the SSD to discuss what kind of coins should be inserted. The largest coin he has ever seen has a diameter larger than an egg. It would be spectacular if it were inserted into the SSD.
The conversation between the two shocked Mrs. Bell, who had always thought her husband was a gentle scholar after marriage.
After spending one night in Flagstaff, Tommy traveled all the way through New Mexico the next day and arrived in Amarillo, Texas, in the evening, also nicknamed the "Land of the Living Dead". The largest producer of helium, and at the same time, America's only nuclear weapons assembly factory, Pantex, is also located here. The more than 200,000 people living here may not know when an explosion will occur due to improper disassembly of nuclear weapons, and they will be wiped out from their lives. People instantly become dead.
Originally, Holly Keener was planning to come from Austin, Texas to meet Tommy, but Tommy refused. Amarillo is not a good place to catch up on old times, and coming here from Austin, she might as well go to her own place. One stop in Oklahoma City, not to mention, he and Holly didn't have much old friendship to talk about, after all, they saw each other often.
Among the original five people in the Actor company, Jason chose to return to his hometown in Mississippi, the small town of Greenville, to enjoy the rest of his life due to Susie's unexpected death three years ago. Mark Warren succeeded Susan as her manager after she entered politics. The president of a brokerage company, Susan followed her mentor Condoleezza Rice into politics. She served as mayor of San Francisco for two terms and as Secretary of State of California. Now she is a Republican senator from California in the U.S. Congress. She is a reluctant successor. She gained her mentor’s political connections.
Only Holly has been active in the Internet and computer industry and often meets Tommy. The only difference is that she moved from Silicon Valley in California to Austin, Texas, and is now the founder of the Austin Bioinformatics Technology and Life Sciences Center. To put it simply, It is to study various high-tech medical devices to help patients improve their living environment, such as intelligent spinal implants, intelligent knee joints, hip joints, artificial hearts, and some ear, nose and throat soft tissue repair technologies.
This may be the most traditional United States so far. Here, residents are allowed to carry automatic pistols without gun licenses and background checks. Minors who commit serious crimes such as murder are allowed to be sentenced to life in prison without parole, and the death penalty is retained. , and gambling is legalized.
Those wealthy people who are not very rich are unlikely to spend money on exclusive medical centers like Rockefeller. The best option is for a group of people to pool money and ask people like Holly to help them study how to live longer.
Arriving in Oklahoma also means bidding farewell to the Western United States and driving into the lush Midwest. After doing some maintenance on my car, I rushed to Little Rock, Arkansas to rest for one night, and then headed south along the Mississippi River. , arrived at Jason’s hometown, Greenville.
They were an old man and a young man, both from California. The old man had lived in San Diego, California, all his life, relying on a fast food restaurant to support his family. He had no holidays. From the time he was born to this trip, he had never left San Diego and had never seen a real person. Xue, now that his children have married and started a business, no longer need to take care of him, and his wife has passed away, he chose to close the restaurant and walk to the north with his savings to see the snow. The young man is an active local short video blogger in San Diego. He wants to Record the images of the old man's journey, and be willing to take care of each other during this journey.
In Oklahoma City, Tommy dropped them off and watched them walking north with their backpacks on their backs. If he hadn't heard the old man talk about it himself, Tommy would never have thought that there were many people in the world who didn't. Saw real snowflakes.
Nearly all the beautiful girls in Greenville, whether black or white, work as waitresses in his private club. Most of the time, there are no guests in the club, which means that they only need to serve Jason alone.
She now no longer needs Tommy's guidance and knows how to trick rich people into investing their money in her, such as selling the concept of high-tech life sciences to rich people who are not so rich.
If you have no impression of Greenville, just watch Quentin's movie "Django". In it, Leonardo's black slave climbed a tree and was persuaded by Leonardo to come down and let his dog bite him to death. The filming location was Greenville, Mississippi. Vail.
Stayed in Amarillo for one night, and before setting off again, Tommy picked up two backpackers on the road who were hitchhiking. It didn’t matter where they were going, as long as they were closer to the north.
Half of the entire state is covered with trees, and the remaining half is plain farmland. It is simply the paradise of American slave owners. When slavery was popular, the male black slaves in the state were responsible for logging, and the female black slaves were responsible for growing cotton. He and the dog were in charge of supervising the work, which was a perfect work plan.
When Tommy saw Jason, Jason looked very happy. Tommy could understand why this guy was so happy, because this guy had almost bought this small town with a population of more than 30,000 people and now lived in a building larger than " Leonardo's home in "Django" is even more luxurious in the manor. Thousands of black people work for him every day, harvesting crops or catching catfish for him. Looking at all the land and ponds on the outskirts of the city, Almost all of it is his property. In order to ensure enough social interaction, this guy also built a floating luxury private club on Lake Ferguson, just to receive friends who came to visit him from afar.
“AIDS or cancer?” Jason asked seriously after seeing Tommy.
Tommy looked puzzled: "What?"
"Is it testicular cancer? It needs to be removed? Otherwise, why would you come here to see me? I thought it was a final farewell trip." Jason said to Tommy. Tommy sighed: "My **** are very good, Jason. I'm just going back to Rhode Island for the wedding and inviting you to my pre-wedding party along the way."
"Are you getting married again? To whom? The young female companion you brought when we last met?" Jason poured Tommy a glass of wine and said in a shocked tone: "That girl is only twenty years old, I It feels like the hemorrhoids you had when you were thirty are now older than her.”
“Ottilia.” Tommy took the wine glass: “I want to marry Ottilia.”
Jason's face was full of disbelief: "You slept with her three best friends and their mothers, and she can forgive you? Have you brainwashed her enough to give up all her dignity for you?"
"It's not for me, maybe it's for the Hawke family. Maybe it's just like how you abused yourself for Suzy." Tommy looked at the decorations in the room: "There doesn't seem to be any trace of Suzy's existence here. Those traces It’s all hidden in your head.”
Jason leaned on the sofa and said with emotion: "I don't often mention her, but I often think of her."
"You should call those illegitimate children back to the country to enjoy family happiness with you. Don't miss her too much. Susie probably doesn't want you to see her too soon. Maybe she is busy wearing leather clothes in heaven and training God. Let him kneel in front of her and lick her toes.”
"I don't even know where they are. They have nothing to do with me. Their mothers took a sum of money and disappeared with them. In fact, I did think that such a big house should have a big family around it. Hold me so that I don’t have to miss Susie all the time. We once said that if someone dies first, the living person should continue to enjoy life happily, so I am here and enjoying every day.”
“You should still be able to have children, there is no shortage of women here.”
“I don’t want to give birth. I don’t even have a life now. I haven’t had a life in three years. To be honest, I wasn’t so loyal when Susie was alive.”
“Maybe Susie spoiled you before she passed away, and it has nothing to do with the word loyalty.”
Jason's cell phone rang at this time. After he answered the call, he said a few nonchalant words at first, then his face became a little angry, and finally turned into shock. After giving his address, he was stunned. Hang up the phone.
“Your face looks like you heard that Susie is still alive.” Tommy said while taking a sip of wine.
Jason looked at Susie: "This phone call tells me that I now have a big family."
"Your illegitimate children are ready to come and divide your money?"
"I...uh...just now there was a man on the phone. He said he was my son. He is forty-two years old."
"You and I are the same age, does that mean you gave birth to this son when you were eighteen? This is impossible. We were just freshmen at that time and were busy studying and starting a business. That's a lie. You didn't have the money to go there at that time. Adopted woman, do you remember that your three girlfriends were the country women you went back to Greenville to find after OSS was put on the market? You were already nineteen years old at that time."
"No, the other person is right, and you are right. I did not have money to support a woman at that time, but there was a woman who paid for me... and took care of my business. A forty-year-old single man who drove a Firebird Rich woman, I’ve had **** with her a few times, and I even used the overnight fee that woman paid me to treat you to pizza.”
Tommy's eyes widened: "No! This is impossible! The man on the phone..."
"That's what he said. His mother was the single rich woman who patronized my Cowherd business. She got pregnant unexpectedly. She originally thought she had no chance to get pregnant, but it just happened. Then she felt that this was the best thing God had given her. It was a gift because she had had a child before, but it died, so she wanted to give birth to it, and believed that the child did not need a father and she could take care of it by herself. In this way, the woman quietly left California and settled in Canada. Children are raised there.”
"This year, his mother passed away. Before she died, she told him that his father's name was Jason White, a college student at Stanford University. Now, he wants to meet me. It's just a simple visit, and there will be no property issues involved. Just because I'm his biological father."
