When they came out of the room, Koizumi Hongzi and Hondo Eyou had already finished washing.
The three of them went downstairs to finish the buffet breakfast, and Patrick drove his Cadillac over to pick up Yingyou.
In one day, Green Delta has formulated most of the conditions for Hondo Yingyou to settle here for a long time.
In the next two years, Hondo Yingyou will stay in the home of an N-cell member, attend the best private high school in New York, and then take the college entrance examination.
In addition to all school expenses being borne by the organization, Yinsen Bentang’s death benefit will also be allocated in the near future, amounting to at least hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Regarding green cards, Green Delta is also helping to apply for them. It is theoretically possible to apply for a green card during the 90-day visa-free period.
…
At the entrance of the Hilton Hotel, Qin Zhibo gave Bentang Yingyou a big hug.
"When you arrive in the United States, you must study hard and don't live up to your father and sister's expectations of you."
"Yes, I will."
Hondo Yingyou nodded firmly, replacing the previous bow that had been too vigorous.
"Mr. Qin, I want to know how to become a strong person like you?"
"It's simple. Do 100 push-ups, 100 squats, 100 sit-ups, and run 10 kilometers every day, and you will become stronger."
"Um...I'm talking about being as smart as you. For example, which university did you go to? I also want to work hard towards this goal!"
"My university?"
Qin Zhibo thought for a moment. Although Miskatonic University's world ranking is very good, after going to Arkham in person, he always felt that the place had a strange feeling, even the University of Miskatonic.
To persuade people to go to MMU, there was thunder and lightning.
Let's lower the difficulty for him.
"Harvard, I studied at Harvard." When he said this, Qin Zhibo's old face did not blush at all.
"Harvard?!"
Hondo Yingyou's eyes widened in surprise, not seeing through the lie, and his face was full of admiration and envy.
"That's the highest university in the world!"
"Okay! I will definitely set Harvard University as my goal!"
Hondou Yingyou clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes erupted with small cosmic flames full of fighting spirit.
Qin Zhibo patted his shoulder happily and encouraged him.
"Come on, I believe you will succeed one day."
…
After seeing off the main hall Yingyou, Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi are also ready to set off.
The next stop is Oklahoma, located in the south-central United States, about 2,200 kilometers away from New York.
Yesterday, Qin Zhibo booked a flight for 4pm, and when he arrived in Oklahoma City, it was already past 6pm.
The last time I came to the United States, I was in this city where I and Kudo Yusaku were dealing with the Yellow Brotherhood case.
After that incident, the Yellow Brotherhood was severely weakened and many "brothers" were arrested for smuggling and drug trafficking.
However, due to the death of Pastor Tuttle, the head of the church, at the U.S. press conference of the Cocoon game, the police lost a key witness and ultimately failed to uncover the real mastermind.
The meeting location Mr. Clock mentioned is Binger Town, which is 370 kilometers away from Oklahoma City.
The railway there was abandoned many years ago and can only be reached by car.
The two first stayed at the largest city hotel in Oklahoma City, and it was Koizumi Hongzi who still paid for the hotel.
After dinner, the two of them went to bed early because they still had to purchase supplies tomorrow.
Because Kunyang is an underground world, it can be expected that professional climbing tools, outdoor lighting equipment, etc. will be used.
Of course, the most important thing is that Qin Zhibo needs a gun.
This is not a weak gun like the [Emanuel Gun], but a real gun, used for self-defense.
Purchasing a gun generally requires a gun license. Qin Zhibo guessed that he probably had a gun license, but he just didn't bring it with him.
But it doesn’t matter. Oklahoma has a concealed carry license that can be applied for in as little as one day. Once it is processed, you can go to a weapons store to buy a gun immediately.
The best weapon against Mi-Go is actually the sprayer.
However, the principle of the sprayer is complicated and its shape is similar to that of a weapon, making it difficult to pass through customs. Qin Zhibo had no choice but to leave this killer weapon in Japan.
…
Sitting on the bedside, Qin Zhibo made up his mind to enter the dreamland again tonight.
Now the biggest danger when entering the dreamland is the rodents in the enchanted forest. Those active little beasts are everywhere in the forest. It is impossible for you to get out of the enchanted forest safely without being prepared.
After thinking about it during the day, he came up with a possible solution.
Real-life items cannot be brought into the dreamland, but a few props in the system may be able to.
For example [Magic Flute].
Although the Magic Flute is a real-life bone flute, when you sleep with the bone flute in your arms, you will dream of a red pigherder holding the bone flute, playing weird tunes, and controlling man-eating rats to eat you.
Does this mean that the power of the bone flute can actually act on dreams?
Moreover, the function of the magic flute itself is to summon and control mice. Those rodents in the enchanted forest can barely be regarded as mice if you ignore the small pile of tentacles under the mule's nose.
Therefore, Qin Zhibo planned to try it with the magic flute.
This time, just to be on the safe side and prevent the magic flute from working, Qin Zhibo summoned Minase Harumu and let him enter the bait doll.
"As soon as you see me making any strange movements or expressions in bed, wake me up immediately."
"No matter what method you use, you must wake me up!"
Based on yesterday's experience, Qin Zhibo realized that when he reacted very violently in the dreamland, it would affect his body in the waking world to a certain extent.
In this way, as long as someone wakes you up at the critical moment, you can get out of danger.
This is a retreat if the Magic Flute doesn't work either.
Minase Yomeng here responded to Qin Zhibo's request and suddenly said: "So you want me to provide 'bed service'?"
Qin Zhibo looked startled, what kind of talk of tiger and wolf is this!
"Wake up, wake up..."
"Isn't it the same as calling for bed?" Minase Yomu asked with an innocent expression.
Qin Zhibo was a little speechless and didn't bother to explain so clearly. He could only say: "It doesn't matter what you call it, just remember to wake me up."
After explaining to Minase Yomeng, Qin Zhibo put on the magic extractor, hugged the bone flute, and lay down on the bed to go to sleep early.
…
When he "awakened" again, Qin Zhibo had appeared in the enchanted forest.
This time I didn’t have to go through the long process of going down the stairs. When I woke up, I was already in a dreamland.
But before entering here, Qin Zhibo felt as if he had met the demonic red pigherder again.
It's just that this time Qin Zhibo closed his eyes decisively and didn't look at him, so he naturally missed the dream.
After landing, Qin Zhibo immediately checked himself and found that the bone flute was indeed held in his right hand.
After blowing a breath from mouth to mouth, the sound of the flute can be produced as usual, although the sound is somewhat distorted and sounds like noise.
It is still dark in the Enchanted Forest, and it seems that the alternation of day and night here corresponds to the waking world.
Qin Zhibo turned on the navigator and confirmed his position. He was still near the "Skye River" yesterday and had not strayed too far from his position.
Soon, he returned to the gurgling river and continued downstream along the same river bank as yesterday.
However, not long after walking, the intruder was discovered by rodent detectors everywhere in the forest.
They live in the enchanted forest, so Qin Zhibo decided to call them "enchanted rats".
The charming rats kept popping their heads out from the darkness of the forest, and their rustling noises disturbed the silence around them from time to time.
Although the phosphorescence of mushroom plants has illuminated their sneaky figures, they still hide and follow them happily, causing great psychological pressure to the intruders.
With yesterday's experience, Qin Zhibo knew the tricks of these little beasts.
The charmed rats will continue to track the intruders, slowly gathering in numbers, and will launch an attack until the number is large enough to definitely eliminate the intruders.
But this time, before they launched their attack, Qin Zhibo planned to try using the bone flute.
…
Seeing that the charmed rats were almost gathered, Qin Zhibo took out his bone flute and started playing.
A low tone is produced from the sound hole of the bone flute and spreads around.
This is the tune Qin Zhibo learned from the Red Pigherd. The low and monotonous tone is the characteristic of this tune.
Qin Zhibo's music skill is now level 3. Although it is not comparable to the despairingly low tone of the Red Pigherd, it is still more restored than when he played it for the first time.
Following the irregular rhythm of a few fingers, ghostly flute sounds spread through the forest.
The charming rats that had been hiding in secret corners stopped one after another, and the trees became quiet again. Only the monotonous sound of the flute with a few variations continued to spread through the air.
This sinister and sinister song spreads like dysentery, causing enchanted rats to sprout from the darkness like mushrooms after rain.
Qin Zhibo kept playing while carefully observing these little melons.
Although they stuck out their heads, they had no intention of attacking themselves. Instead, they all stood there blankly, like towering prairie dogs.
As the playing progressed, they even closed their eyes!
The small tentacles under the mule's nose move with the rhythm of the flute, as naturally and harmoniously as the sea anemones in the sea.
It can be seen that they appreciate the music played by the bone flute and are even intoxicated by it.
However, this kind of intoxication is limited to appreciation, and Qin Zhibo has not yet seen any signs that they are being controlled by him.
This means that as long as you stop playing, these charming rats may still attack you at any time.
Now there are two ways. One is to keep looping the single so that they are always intoxicated and have no time to attack themselves.
Another is to stop playing and see how they react.
Qin Zhibo couldn't determine their attitude, so he could only be more conservative and choose to keep playing while moving.
And these little beasts are like followers, running behind Qin Zhibo, and when they get close, they stand there and listen to a paragraph.
When the sound becomes unreal, they will catch up and stand up to listen.
Under such circumstances, Qin Zhibo found that not only did he not send them away, but he attracted more and more of them. In the open space behind him, there were almost hundreds of enchanted rats.
They stood in an orderly manner on the grass, holding their claws that could hurt someone, and listened intently to the music.
There was even a charmed rat at the back who came late and wanted to jump in line and ran to the front of the queue, and got into a fight with the charmed rat in front.
Look at the moon for balance!
Lunge and push palm!
Wheel arm punch!
The two charming rats used exactly the same moves to test each other, and their wildly trembling tentacles revealed each other's anger, but they still couldn't tell the winner for a long time.
This situation continued until a waterfall was reached, and finally it could no longer be maintained.
Qin Zhibo kept playing and glanced at the waterfall next to him from the corner of his eye. It was about 5 meters high. Below it was a pool ten meters away from the shore.
Now if he jumps forward, he may be able to get rid of these charming rats completely.
But it is possible that these animals can also swim, and can even swim faster than themselves in the water.
But now, he can only give it a try.
Qin Zhibo took the flute away from his dry lips, turned around and jumped into the pool.
The charming rat following behind saw this and jumped down too, the classic "you jump and I jump too".
In the water, although the speed of the charmed rat is not fast, it is not much slower than humans.
Qin Zhibo took advantage of the first mover advantage and quickly climbed ashore and resumed playing, so these little beasts did not catch up quickly.
Maintaining this state for an unknown period of time, Qin Zhibo finally reached the lower reaches of the Skye River.
Downstream, Qin Zhibo saw a town standing on the other side of the river.
From a distance, the town seems to be in a medieval style, dominated by wooden spire houses and stone towers.
At the outer edge of the town, you can see neat farmhouses and light green fields surrounded by fences.
From the navigator, this place that looks like a paradise is Usa Town.
Qin Zhibo found a stone arch bridge by the river, which allowed him to cross the Skye River and reach that place.
But even here, those charming rats still refused to let Qin Zhibo go and followed him relentlessly.
Qin Zhibo had no choice but to keep playing and walked onto the stone arch bridge.
But at this moment, an orange-colored tabby cat walked elegantly from the other side of the bridge to the highest position of the arch bridge, blocking Qin Zhibo's path.
"Card--"
The colorful civet cat roared harshly at Qin Zhibo and the charming mice, interrupting the low-pitched and dull flute sound.
All the charmed rats looked blankly at the tabby cat high up, as if they had just woken up from a dream.
"Card--"
"Card--"
At this time, there were two more cats, a black and white tabby cat and a fat Garfield cat jumping on the railing of the stone bridge and hissing at the charmed mouse.
At this time, the charming mouse was completely awakened from the wonderful performance, and immediately fled towards the direction of the forest.
Qin Zhibo watched this scene happen, and then he realized that the blood suppression of "cat and mouse" was also established in the dreamland.
Just three cats drove away hundreds of enchanted rats. No wonder there is a human town so close to the enchanted forest.
Seeing that the three cats had driven away the bloodline enemies, they returned to the other end of the bridge and lay lazily on the grass.
Qin Zhibo passed by them without being stopped by the cats.
Instead, a wooden sign standing on the other side of the stone bridge blocked his way.
There is a very important rule written in English on the wooden sign.
