Marvel’s Princess Chapter 9: Charlie’s old friend
Bella's journey to Forks Town was very smooth. The train did not derail, there were no bombs on board, and she was not smashed into pieces by billboards, telephone poles and the like while eating. There were no short circuits in the wires, no Deflagration, safe journey.
On the train, the conversation between father and daughter was a bit awkward.
Charlie thought she was too frightened, expressed his understanding, and took good care of her.
The initial conversation between the two was basically awkward.
"Your hair has grown longer?"
"Ah, yes, I haven't cut it since I last saw you."
"...Grows up so fast."
And so on.
Bella didn't know what topics her predecessor and her father had talked about, and she was worried about being exposed, so she was very silent about the past. Fortunately, she had experienced the toy car incident and Flight 180 incident personally, so she could talk about these.
In order to resolve the embarrassment, she consciously turned the topic to Natasha’s mother. Men are all stupid, so it’s definitely right to talk to them about women!
It turns out that even Charlie, who has a very reserved personality, will not refuse this topic. Listen to Bella talk about how she used anti-wolf spray to knock down the robbers, and listen to her talk about how Natasha defeated the enemy with an over-the-shoulder throw. , the relationship between father and daughter has obviously become warmer.
In addition to having to deal with Charlie's various concerns on the road, Bella has also been thinking about self-rescue.
She does not believe in God, and God will not come to bless her. The only person she can rely on is herself.
......
"We're here, do you still have any impressions? That cafe at the intersection, where we used to eat together?" Charlie drove Bella home in a police car.
There are only more than 3,000 people in Fox Town, which is a typical sparsely populated area.
To be honest, the outside of the town is still very beautiful. Looking over it, everything in sight is green. The moss on the tree trunks is green, the leaves are also green, and even many ferns are green. The air is extremely fresh, and it lives up to its name. virgin forest...
Charlie himself has a small white house in the town. This is the house he bought when he and Bella's mother first got married. The marriage only lasted a little more than a year. The style of the house is a bit old-fashioned, with two floors. , there is a lawn in front of the door, cars can be parked casually, and there is no concept of garage at all in the town.
Bella looked around and saw that unlike the apartments in Arizona, there were many houses in Forks Town. But at a glance, she could see that the styles and colors of their houses were different, and they might be different from other people's houses. A different house is a symbol of freedom and individuality, right? She doesn’t understand very well...
Bella lives in the bedroom on the second floor facing the front yard. It has modern floors and dark red walls. It can be seen that Charlie has made some arrangements in advance. Many graffiti, photos and celebrity posters that are suspected to be Bella's childhood. Hanging on the wall, the pillows, quilts, and lamps are all new. The room is a bit small. There is a second-hand computer, and the basic necessities of life are provided.
"This is for you. I don't know if you like it or not." Seeing that Charlie was about to leave, Bella quickly took out the small gift she bought at the airport. She was so busy talking about a lot of things that she almost forgot.
"Oh, thank you! Very beautiful!" Small gifts can increase feelings. Bella then went to town for dinner, and Charlie happily agreed.
"Didi-di-di" the horn sounded outside the house, and Charlie couldn't help but smile: "It's my old friend, come on, let's go down together."
The father and daughter came outside the house. This pleasant journey made Charlie feel that his daughter had made some good changes. He solemnly introduced his friends to his daughter.
"This is Billy Black, my old friend, and this is my daughter Bella, do you still remember it?" The person he introduced was a middle-aged man in a wheelchair.
If you ignore the wheelchair, the middle-aged man can be said to be extremely tall. He has brown skin, a square face, and long shawl hair. He is an Indian with very obvious characteristics.
However, Indian is now a discriminatory term. According to official requirements, this term cannot be used. They are now collectively referred to as 'Native Americans'.
Bella respects each other very much, even a little too much.
The first rule of Marvel’s survival rules is that you must not underestimate anyone in a wheelchair in the Marvel world. The chance of such a person becoming a boss is very high!
People like Bella with able-bodied hands and feet have to live on thin ice. A disabled person can live a comfortable life in a wheelchair without relying on heaven, earth, or the government. This is ability!
She showed a generous and decent smile: "Hello, Uncle Blake."
The middle-aged Indian shook hands with her gently, but the moment his fingers touched, there was something strange about his face hidden under the cowboy hat that was difficult to detect.
"Are you getting more and more beautiful? Charlie hasn't stopped talking since he knew you were coming over." The middle-aged Indian laughed and teased his old friend.
Charlie tilted his head and looked to the side, seeming a little embarrassed. He whispered: "If you keep talking nonsense, I will push you into the mud."
"Then I'll break your legs first!" The middle-aged Indian in a wheelchair started fighting with Charlie like children.
The two middle-aged people consciously gave up the space, and the young man who had been holding the wheelchair had the opportunity to take two steps forward.
Seeing that the other party was unusually shy, Bella said preemptively: "Hi, are you Jacob? I remember you. You are much stronger than when you were a child. I can hardly recognize you."
This is a typical all-purpose opening line in chatting. It is basically not wrong to use it on young men. After all, there are very few people who are willing to be told, "You are more **** than when you were a child."
The young man has the unique appearance of an Indian. At this time, Bella's opening remarks made him extremely embarrassed, and his dog-licking attitude was clearly revealed.
"You are also...you are also...more beautiful" He wanted to say some compliments such as being more beautiful, but when the words came to his lips, he was a little embarrassed to speak.
In the original time and space, because the two young people were very embarrassed about each other, the conversation ended after a few sentences. However, Bella had some ideas of her own at this time, and she still firmly took the initiative in the topic.
"I remember that you loved studying mechanical equipment when you were a child. Do you still do it now? Can you modify motorcycles?" She asked curiously.
Hearing the goddess talking to him in such a gentle voice, the young dog-licking Jacob was so excited that he almost jumped into the tree. He was really not confident when it came to other things, but about modifying a motorcycle? This is what he does best!
"Do you like it too? Want to see my workshop?" he asked excitedly.
Bella showed obvious hesitation: "If I go...is it appropriate?"
There is an issue with the Indian Reserve. The former Aboriginal people and the former owners have now been 'protected' by the American people. If Bella enters the reserve without permission, it will be illegal if she is caught. .
