Extraordinary North America: Where are the magical partners?

Chapter 174: The Weird Family of Louise

"Yeah~~~"

When the chubby pimp heard this, he immediately came over with an ambiguous look in his eyes and said, "It's Quigmar, the only pilot in our town. For only twenty dollars, you can enjoy the service of a five-star pilot, hehe."

This creepy laugh scared Rango so much that he took a few steps back. It turned out that before joining the [Wooden House], Quigmar was a captain of an airline company and also had a part-time job as a streetwalker?

"Pete!"

Quigmar yanked the pimp's arm and whispered anxiously, "Didn't we agree on this? Don't take jobs from people you know. This guy obviously knows me!"

Snapped--!
Before he could finish his words, Pete slapped Quagma so hard that he spun several times in place before stopping.

Then he grabbed Quigmar's broad chin and said coldly: "You are just my tool to make money now. Tools don't need to have their own ideas. You have to do whatever I tell you to do!"

"OOK" Quigma touched the slap mark on his face and nodded tremblingly.

Pete chuckled and stroked his cheek affectionately again, "You know I beat you and betrayed you because I love you, right?"

"Yes."

Quigma wiped the tears from his eyes, then knelt down in front of Rango and raised his hand to untie his belt.

Rango was still in shock.

What did Quigmar call this fat pimp just now?
Pete?!
Rango widened his eyes and stared at the man in front of him who weighed at least 300 pounds and had a butt chin.

Sometimes he looked stern and cold, just like the cold-blooded pimp in "The Devil Walks"; sometimes he swung the crutch in his hand with a silly smile on his face, like a stunted idiot.

Damn it, could this guy be his father, Pete Winchester?
No, although they looked somewhat similar, the man in his memory, although a little overweight due to middle age, was definitely not this fat.

At this moment, Rango suddenly felt a strange movement in his lower body.

He looked down and was so frightened that he jumped more than ten meters away.

Quagma had already taken off his pants while crying.
"Alas," Peter sighed and said disappointedly, "Let's go, Quigmar. It seems that they don't like you. Let's try our luck at the nursing home."

Quagma nodded and got into the car like a zombie. Then the car started and first hit a street lamp crookedly, then slowly disappeared from Rango's sight.

At this moment, Rango's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out. Although he had just arrived in this time and space for only a few minutes, he had already secretly felt regretful.

He shouldn't have come.
"Fuck! The Peter I remember is definitely not like this!"

Teddy and Yumi, who had been hiding and observing the situation, came out of the alley one after another. Teddy exclaimed to Rango in shock: "Can you believe it, man? The fat guy just now turned out to be Pete?!"

"Of course. I dare not."

Rango smiled bitterly, pressed his temples with his fingers, and said helplessly: "To be honest, although I have lowered my expectations of my parents, I really didn't expect that reality would be even more outrageous than I thought."

"Go back, Rango." Teddy stood beside his left leg and advised, "With a guy like this, do you think he can do anything to deal with the ancient gods?"

Yumi stood on the magic book, floating lightly beside Rango's shoulder, and expressed a different opinion, "I think we should at least meet them and have a good talk. After all, he is your father, isn't he?"

"Chat? Damn, that bastard might even drag us out to stand on the street together." Teddy retorted immediately.

"Maybe it's a misunderstanding. Didn't you see Pete touching QuiggleMa's face and saying he loved him?" Yumi argued unyieldingly.

"That guy is a psychopath. We will only get into trouble if we get close to him!"

"But this is a rare opportunity. If you miss it, you may never see them again."

"So what if the parents are gone? Go back, Rango. Let's go to Lincoln's funeral and knock his coffin over!"

"Please stay for a few days, Master. At least observe them. You must be curious about your parents' lives when they were young, right?"

"."

Teddy and Yuumi were like a devil and an angel, each trying to persuade Rango with his own opinions. Although they had different opinions, what they said made sense at first glance.

Rango pondered for a moment and finally made a decision: "Okay, we will stay for three days. After three days, I will go to them to ask what we need, and then leave."

"yeah--!"

Seeing that his suggestion was adopted, Yumi jumped up and down excitedly, while Teddy pouted unhappily. He hated this noisy kitten more and more.

The next day.

After spending the money they brought with them, Rango and his friends successfully rented a two-story villa in the neighborhood.
There were many families living around here, and their target, the Pete family, and the other members of the Four Horsemen all lived on this street.

Before long, other residents in the block also knew that they had a new neighbor: an old man with white afro hair and a young handsome man, and of course, their pets, a teddy bear and a cat.

At this moment, behind a window on the second floor of the villa, Rango, Teddy and Yumi were quietly spying on the Pete family not far away.

It is worth mentioning that Pete, who was wearing a gaudy suit and wandering around in the night last night, has changed into a neat white shirt today and went to work in a brewery.

Quigma was no longer the streetwalker from last night, but a pilot dressed in a neat suit, driving a red car towards the airport.

"Strange, why did their jobs change again after a sleep?" Rango was puzzled.

"Didn't you read the newspaper?" Teddy raised the "Clam Daily" in his hand and said proudly, "Quigma went to stand on the street because there was a strike at the airport not long ago. He lost his job. Now that the strike is over, he will naturally return to his original job."

"As for Pete."

At this point, Teddy's expression became complicated. "This guy has been in the newspapers at least ten times, but not once was a positive report. He dug up people's ancestral graves, strangled a tortoise that had lived for hundreds of years with a belt in the zoo, broke into Liam Neeson's RV and fought with him, and even... He was even kicked by a wild bull in a bullfight."

"Etc., etc."

Rango and Yumi looked at each other, their eyes full of disbelief.

"What does this 'jue' mean? Could it be what I understand?"

"That's what I mean, Rango. Your dad was bitten by a bison." Teddy pretended to be serious, but he couldn't hold back the smile on his face.

"."

Rango was silent.

He wanted to light a cigarette to calm down, but when he thought of what Teddy had just said, the cigarette in his hand was instantly crushed into pieces!

"But... it's so strange." Yumi rested her chin on one hand, lying on the magic book, her tail gently shaking, her eyes full of confusion, "He has done so many bad things, I even saw a news report about him driving under the influence and hitting someone in the newspaper, but he has never been to jail, and his job is so stable."

"It should be because of the [wooden house]."

Rango took a deep breath and tried to get his thoughts back on track: "Quigma said that although they were already working for the [Wooden House] during this period, they all had legitimate jobs as a cover."

"So far, Pete is a brewery worker, Quagma is a pilot, Old Joe is a sheriff, and Cleveland runs a delicatessen."

"Such an arrangement can conceal their tracks while ensuring their freedom of movement."

After hearing this, Yumi became even more confused: "Doesn't that mean that even if the captain's job is gone, Quigmar will still have an income, so why would he stand on the street and provide that kind of service?"

"Maybe he has some special hobby."

Memories of his time with Quigmar emerged in Rango's mind. Judging from his personality, he most likely really liked being a street prostitute and might even enjoy it.

Shit, if that's the case, doesn't it mean that I was also a part of their play last night!
At this moment, a device that looked like an antique phonograph on the table suddenly started up by itself. This was a bug that he asked the doctor to help make to monitor Pete's phone calls.

Soon, a female voice came through the machine, clear and direct, the content was very simple, the pipe under the kitchen sink was blocked, she was contacting the staff to come and repair it. Rango was immediately excited after hearing this, this was a good opportunity to get into Pete's house.

He quickly took out a T-shirt that looked like a maintenance worker's uniform from the closet and put it on. Then he found the doctor who was studying data in the garage, took a toolbox from him, and couldn't wait to set off for Pete's house.

Looking at his hurried back, Yumi said speechlessly: "You can just pretend to be a new neighbor and bring a box of cookies to go in, but you have to make it so troublesome."

"."

Not long after, Rango stood in front of Pete's house, wearing maintenance worker's clothes and carrying a toolbox. After coughing twice, he knocked on the door decisively.

As the footsteps approached, his mood became tense.

The door slowly opened, and a woman in a green shirt, brown trousers, and short orange-red hair came into view—it was his mother, Louise!
Rango felt an indescribable excitement in his heart. This was almost exactly the same as the mother in his memory. His eyes were fixed on his mother's face, as if he wanted to engrave this moment in his heart forever.

Similarly, Louise also froze in place after seeing Rango, but the difference was that her eyes were fixed on the muscular chest and arms of the man opposite her.

"Ms. Louise, I heard that your sewer is blocked." Rango quickly adjusted his mood and spoke in a gentle and professional tone.

Hearing his deep, magnetic voice, Louise couldn't help but feel her body soften. Her face flushed, her eyes wandered over his muscular body, and she said with a silly smile, "Yeah. It's really, really tight."

Although he was a little surprised by Louis's condition, Rango still took out a retractable pestle from the toolbox and said, "Don't worry, ma'am. See this stick? I will poke it with all my strength until it is pierced and all the water flows out!"

"Oh"

Louise's chest couldn't stop rising and falling after hearing this. She looked around to make sure no one was around, then pulled Rango's arm and said anxiously, "Let's get started!"

A few minutes later, the Rangos were lying under the sink, concentrating on repairing Pete's sewer.

He cursed almost every time he poked her. He really didn't understand why the kitchen drain would be clogged with things like underwear.

Finally, after some hard work, he was able to completely clear the clog in the pipe.

When he climbed out from under the sink, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

Louise, who was originally wearing an ordinary women's shirt, suddenly changed into a backless, low-cut, high-slit long skirt, and black stockings on her legs. She wore high heels and heavy makeup, and was looking at his wet T-shirt with a silly smile.

Rango looked down and saw that the wet T-shirt was tightly attached to his body, highlighting his perfect muscle lines.

When he saw Louis with a dazed look on his face, he suddenly understood what was going on. He cursed inwardly in shock, then put the toolbox in front of him.

"Um, Ms. Louise, the clogged pipe has been fixed." He said, trying to remain calm.

"So fast?"

Louise approached him in surprise, and as she passed by him, she patted him on the chest to express her gratitude. The unintentional touch made Rango shiver a few times and got goose bumps all over his body.

He took a deep breath with a complicated expression on his face. He no longer had the desire to stay, so he picked up the toolbox and prepared to leave.

He never imagined that after seeing him, his biological mother would treat him like a resentful woman in the boudoir and think of him as the plumber in the story.

But before he took a few steps, Louise exclaimed, "oops!"

Rango turned his head and saw that the woman had forcibly pulled down the sewer pipe he had fixed. She covered her mouth and asked him for help with an innocent look: "It looks like there's something wrong with it again."

"."

Half an hour later.

The living room was filled with the aroma of coffee. Rango took the warm coffee handed to him by Louise, but involuntarily turned his body slightly to the side, deliberately keeping a certain distance from her.

This woman took advantage of him whenever she had the chance, completely subverting the image of his mother in his mind.

"So, Rango, you're not a professional plumber, right?"

"Yeah, I just moved to this community. I just passed by and heard you were looking for workers to repair the sewer. I think as a newcomer, I need to make good friends with you new neighbors, so..."

Rango smiled, unwilling to talk about this topic. His eyes inadvertently fell on the family portrait hanging next to the TV, and he asked casually, "Family of four, ah, can you introduce your family to me?"

"Of course." Louise agreed happily, picked up the photos enthusiastically, and introduced them one by one: "This is my husband Pete, and my daughter Megan"

She pointed at a person with his back to the camera, with only his back showing in a red hat.

The back figure made Rango feel familiar, as if it overlapped with a fragment of his memory, but what he was most concerned about was another child in the photo who was about Megan's age.

"This is Chris, he's my little boy."

When Louise introduced Megan and Chris, her expression was a little complicated, but she soon returned to her smile: "We are planning to have another child, and we have prepared several names, including Rango. Coincidentally, after meeting you, I think this name is more suitable."

Rango felt mixed emotions when he heard this. Although he had been prepared, after finding out that this unreliable family was really his parents, he still felt confused and unable to accept it.

It was all so strange, and he had no way of connecting the dots between Pete and Louise, whom he had met in Clam Town, and his parents in Queens.

And where did this Chris come from?

He had no recollection of having a brother, and had never heard Quagma or Old Joe mention him.

Louise on the side was stroking the photo album, and the emotion revealed in her eyes was very strange. At least that's what Rango thought after seeing it.

He frowned and asked tentatively: "Don't you like them both?"

"Ok?"

Louise was stunned when she heard this, then she shook her head and laughed, "How could that be? They were all born from my belly, how could I not love them?"

Rango looked at her for a few times and it was obvious from the look on her face that there was something strange going on.

After thinking for a while, he smiled and extended an invitation, "Today is my first day in Clam Town. I would like to invite your family to have dinner at my house tonight."

"I will also invite other neighbors such as Quigmar and Joe. I hope we can take this opportunity to get to know each other better. If you have time, please."

Louise perked up immediately after hearing this. She patted Rango's shoulder in an ambiguous way and said enthusiastically, "Don't worry, we will be there on time."

night.

After the restaurant staff delivered the ordered meal, Rango paid the bill, gave a generous tip and signaled them to leave quickly.

As soon as Old Man Brown came to this world, he stayed in the garage and concentrated on studying the experimental data of time travel, which made McQueen so exhausted that he had no time to cook. None of Rango and Teddy knew how to cook, so they could only order food over the phone.

Soon, there was a knock on the door. Rango opened the door and saw Old Joe and his wife Bonnie.

Old Joe at this time looked much younger than he did more than 20 years later, but the disabled leg still remained in the wheelchair. As for Bonnie, he had heard of this woman's name in the cabin. It seemed that she had some emotional crisis with Joe later and deliberately avoided seeing him.

Later, the Cleveland family also arrived early.

Rango observed carefully for a while. This black man named Cleveland looked very honest and simple, but after entering the house, he touched left and right, as if he wanted to take some of his things home to collect.

Quagma also came, and he was hugging two women dressed as prostitutes, not at all restrained by the occasion. When he saw Rango, he was not embarrassed at all, but generously gave him a bottle of red wine as a gift.

Well, Rango now discovered that among the four knights, only Quigmar behaved like a human being.

Not long after, the protagonists of this time, the Pitt family, finally arrived slowly and on time.

Rango greeted the couple with a warm hug, but when he saw Megan wearing a red hat, his open arms froze in mid-air.

Holy shit! This thing is his sister?!
