Extraordinary North America: Where are the magical partners?

Chapter 25 Teddy, danger!

"Hahaha"

After a few beers, Rango and Cindy, who were strangers half an hour ago, now became as familiar as old friends.

"At that time, both I and the police thought that the murderer was my two playmates, but we were wrong. Who do you think the real murderer is?"

"Um"

Rango pretended to think for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You should just solve the mystery directly. I really can't figure it out."

Cindy leaned back in her chair, sighing, "It was Ah Dai, the guy who usually looked silly and harmless. He deceived all of us! When the truth came out, everyone was shocked, but Ah Dai seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth, and the police have not been able to catch him yet."

Rango nodded slightly when he heard this. "People's hearts are hidden in their stomachs. Often, the weakness on the outside often hides another side that is unknown to others."

"Yeah, I totally agree with that."

"Ahem, Cindy." After noticing that their relationship had improved significantly, Rango asked, "Speaking of which, I'm very interested in the castle experiment you mentioned earlier. Can you tell me more about it?"

"Why are you asking that?" Cindy recalled, "I only know that this was an off-campus experiment organized by the professor. In addition to me, there were five other students participating."

"Oh, by the way, three of them are my middle school classmates. Although they are all black, they are very interesting. I can introduce them to you when I have time."

"Really? That would be great."

At this time, Rango has confirmed that the castle that Cindy and others are going to next week is the one in his memory.

He then calmly suggested: "Cindy, can you take me with you to see it? You may not know that I dropped out of school in my freshman year. I am very interested in these practical activities in college."

"this."

Cindy hesitated for a moment, but finally took out a note from her bag, wrote down the address and handed it to him:
"I'm not sure if the professor would agree to outsiders joining, but you can give it a try. Remember not to tell them that it was me who gave you the address."

After she finished speaking, she lowered her voice and added, "And I think that professor doesn't look like a good person. I feel more at ease with you here."

"Haha, don't worry, no one can hurt my Rango's friends."

Holding the note in his hand, Rango thought of all the monsters in the castle. He couldn't help but look down at the blue progress bar on his wrist that was invisible to ordinary people.

At this time, the energy above has been stored for nearly 60%. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to summon it again after the trip to the castle is over next week!
but
Judging from the plot in the movie, those guys in the castle are no pushovers.

(From the movie Scary Movies 2, Cindy is the first one on the left in the first row.)
evening.

Rango did not go to work at the museum as usual. He took three days off and took a flight to Los Angeles in an hour.

He was the only one in the bedroom at this time. After putting a set of clothes and daily necessities into his backpack, he zipped it up and looked around.

"Everyone come out."

As soon as he finished speaking, more than twenty earthbound spirits immediately appeared in the originally empty bedroom.

Most of them looked haggard and skinny, as if they had been hungry for days. They stood in front of Rango with their hands hanging listlessly, like zombies.

Of course, there are exceptions. The two female earthbound spirits who volunteered to offer their bodies as capital looked very happy, and they were even sticking to Rango.

"Go down, go down."

Rango pushed them away and said seriously to the many earthbound spirits, "I'm going to be away for a few days. All of you should behave yourself. Most importantly, don't show up in front of Emma. Do you understand?"

The ghosts looked at each other and nodded.

Looking at their pale and thin appearance, Rango apologized a little embarrassedly: "I have indeed collected rent a little too frequently during this period, but don't worry, if nothing unexpected happens, you don't need to continue paying rent in the next few weeks. Take care of your health. Okay, let's go."

Although he said so, there was still no expression on the faces of those earthbound spirits.

They knew it clearly in their minds that they should just listen to what the man said and not take it seriously.

It was clearly agreed that the rent should be paid once a week, but this black-hearted landlord came up with a crazy way of collecting rent by paying a deposit of six months and a payment of one month. They were squeezed so hard that their spirits could hardly sustain themselves, and they were not told whether the "deposit" would be returned.

After they left, Rango picked up his bag and went out to the living room.

At this moment, Megan was cooking dinner in the kitchen. Emma was quietly reading a fairy tale book on the sofa. Opposite her was Teddy, who was holding a handheld game console and shouting non-stop.

"Emma."

Rango walked up to her and touched her head. "The school bus will stop at your doorstep at a fixed time every day. Don't forget to go to school."

"Don't worry, uncle." Emma put down her textbook and smiled.

"Besides that, tell Megan what you want to eat these days. If you encounter any difficulties in your studies, you can also ask her for help. I have entered your voice message into her system, and she will take good care of you."

"By the way, if there's anything you can do with the money, tell Uncle Teddy."

After that, Rango kissed Emma on the forehead and said, "Be good at home, I will be back in a few days."

Then after saying hello to Teddy Megan, he went straight out to catch his flight.

Wait until the door is closed and make sure Rango has left.

Emma, ​​who was originally reading a fairy tale book, raised her head slightly and stared with cold eyes at Teddy, who was rolling around and making a lot of noise on the sofa opposite her.

“So noisy.”

Five hours later.

Rango took a flight and successfully traveled from the East Coast to the hot and passionate West Coast.

Although it was almost dawn, the air was still filled with an indescribable warmth and humidity, as if even the night was a little restless.

Walking out of the airport lobby, Rango loosened his collar with his hand, then slowly walked towards the wall where there were several ashtrays.

Just as he put the cigarette in his mouth, he suddenly remembered that he had left his lighter at the security checkpoint.

"Click——"

Just then, a hand with a lighter reached out.

An Indian man with a child of four or five years old was standing next to him, looking at him with a smile.

"3Q."

Rango covered the cigarette butt with his hand, lit it, and nodded, "Indian?"

“No, I have already immigrated to Hong Kong.”

"Oh? Congratulations then." Rango couldn't help but look at him a few more times. Come to think of it, there seemed to be quite a few Indians in Hong Kong Island.

The guy lit up a cigarette and spoke in his awkward English, eager to talk: "I sell curry in Chungking Mansions, killed someone in Mong Kok, was imprisoned in Stanley, and this time I brought him back to see his mother."

He patted the head of the child next to him, and then said expectantly, "As long as she ties a yellow ribbon on the tree, it means she forgives me. Here is her address."

It can be seen that this enthusiastic Ah San loves his wife very much, and he even took out a photo while talking.

"This is the photo she sent me. I'm so nervous."

Rango took it and took a look. When he saw the woman in the photo, his eyes widened in shock and he blurted out a curse: "Fuck you!"

How come she looks exactly like the woman he is going to meet!
The ending is from "Himalayan Star", I wonder if anyone has seen it
