American homeless people, surviving in the city

After reviewing the contents of the three reward options, Lin Qi made a quick judgment with almost no thought.

The +20 hunger level is obviously not very important to him right now. Apart from the meal the Chen siblings treated him to last night, he usually relies on relief meals and can't even reach the maximum hunger level of 100.

You can only eat your way to a hunger level of around 60-70.

The increased 20-point cap is unlikely to be useful for the time being.

Option B isn't particularly valuable either; even if you buy these military rations on an e-commerce platform, it would only cost a little over a hundred dollars.

Wasting a mission reward just to get food worth a little over a hundred dollars, enough to last five days, is really not worth it.

The skill offered by option C, Rat Detection, is exactly what Lynch needs right now!

If Lynch were to get a job as a crime scene cleaner, he could foresee facing all sorts of threats.

Although the skill "Rat Detection" doesn't bring Lynch stronger combat power, it can be used to avoid risks, which is quite suitable for the upcoming plan.

Lynch made his choice without hesitation.

With a thought, the reward options interface shattered into fragments, and then the line of characters 【Rat's Sense】 transformed into a stream of light and flew into Lin Qi's brow.

A refreshing breeze swept over his body, and Lin Qi opened his eyes, feeling his mind clearer.

Before I could even feel what changes had occurred in my body,

Lynch's instincts suddenly went off like alarm bells!

Before his mind could process it, Lin Qi's body had already moved on its own, suddenly turning around to look at the street corner a dozen meters behind him!

From Lin Qi's perspective, a figure emitting a conspicuous red light flashed past at the street corner a dozen meters away and disappeared behind the corner!

It wasn't until his head was completely turned around that Lin Qi realized he had turned around.

Then, he belatedly realized that this might be the effect of the [Rat's Sense] skill!

His keen intuition, amplified by his skill, immediately alerted him to the danger behind him, prompting him to turn around and warn others!

However, the speed at which his intuition returned to his brain was so fast that even Lin Qi himself didn't realize it. Like an FPS game player who had cheated, he suddenly felt that the "spirit" was trying to steal the mouse, making it very difficult to control.

What's going on?

Lin Qi was somewhat confused.

Even though he reacted quickly based on his intuition, the figure emitting red light disappeared behind the street corner in the blink of an eye.

The distance of more than ten meters made it impossible for Lin Qi to catch up.

So, was the person behind me a threat? Or was they a "dangerous person" in a broader sense?

Lynch is unable to draw a conclusion at this time.

He could only put the matter out of his mind for the time being, since the person had already disappeared around the corner and should no longer pose a threat to him.

But regardless, based solely on his reaction just now, he could already sense that the [Rat Sense] was truly remarkable!

With diligent practice, and by ensuring his consciousness can keep up with the speed of his intuitive warnings, this skill will give him a tremendous informational advantage!

With his new skills at his disposal, Lin Qi felt more at ease about the upcoming interview.

I took out my phone and saw that it was already 11 a.m.

Lin Qi was wearing a new set of clothes, but he was still holding a set of old clothes that he had changed out of.

Although it's called old clothes, he only bought it from a second-hand store a few days ago and hasn't worn it much.

Bringing your old clothes to an interview isn't a good idea. In America, you can't just ask someone to "transfer" your old clothes and take them away.

Lynch didn't want to throw away the clothes, so he decided to go back to the camp first, put the clothes away, then find a place to get a relief meal for lunch, eat and drink his fill, and then go for the interview in the afternoon.

After making the arrangements, Lynch strode towards the location of the greenbelt campsite.

However, what he didn't know was that,

He hadn't gone far when two people peeked out furtively from the street corner behind him.

Clearly, they were the figures Lin Qi had just seen, glowing red and disappearing around the street corner.

One of the two men was a tall, overweight Black man, and the other was a short Latino.

If Lin Qi were here, he would definitely recognize these two people as the two thugs who robbed him of his woven bag when he first arrived!

At this moment, the tall, fat black man was watching Lin Qi's retreating figure with a look of surprise and uncertainty in his eyes:

"This guy...why is he wearing a new set of clothes again? Didn't I just rob him of everything except his underwear a few days ago? How come he's dressed like a homeless person all of a sudden?"

The short, Latino man standing nearby chimed in, echoing:

"Yes, Brother DeSean. Not only that, look, he was just using the latest iPhone when he was making a call on the street!"

"That lucky guy must have found another way to make money and turn his life around!"

"If you ask me, we should rob him again! Last time we robbed him and nothing happened to us, that coward probably didn't even call the police! If we rob him again, we'll definitely make a good profit!"

The tall, fat Black man stroked his beard: "Martin, you have a point, but I have a feeling this guy has become a bit strange since I last saw him a few days ago."

"I just saw him and was about to walk towards him when this guy suddenly turned around, as fast as one of those monsters in a horror movie that can turn 180 degrees!"

"This guy's reactions are so quick, it feels like... he's trained in something?"

"Hmph!" Martin, the short, Latino man, scoffed. "Don't we know what kind of person he is?"

"When we were taking his stuff, he didn't dare utter a sound! That timid, cowardly look of him, did he look like he'd ever trained?"

"He probably just happened to think of something and turned around at that moment, startling you, brother!"

Seeing that Martin's words seemed to make some sense, the chubby black man, DeSean, finally nodded:

"Yes, that's true."

"This guy's passport was in the woven bag we snatched earlier. Although I can't read, the passport looks like that of an ordinary person, nothing special."

"Since that's the case, let's do him another job next time we see him!"

......

Meanwhile, Lin Qi was unaware that two street thugs had secretly reached an agreement and were preparing to attack him again.

Clutching a bundle of old clothes, Lynch crossed several blocks and soon returned to Third Avenue, just a step away from the Greenbelt Camp.

Unexpectedly, even though it was still working hours, he saw Raul squatting by Third Avenue, chatting animatedly with old James, who was sitting on the ground begging with a sign!

Before Lynch even got close, Raul spotted him with sharp eyes and greeted him excitedly:

"Hey! Isn't this our Lin Qi? Where did you strike it rich last night? You're even wearing new clothes!"

Lin Qi waved his hand with a smile: "Nothing serious happened. I just saved someone earlier, and they gave me some things in return and treated me to a hotel for a day."

Since this place was still the territory of the Razor Gang, he didn't go into too much detail about the rescue.

"On the contrary, what are you doing here, loitering around during work hours?"

"Hey," Raul waved his hand dismissively, "The boss heard rumors that ICE might be doing a surprise inspection today, so he gave us a day off..."

Hearing the two chatting happily, old James also smiled:

"Great, good deeds are rewarded; you don't see this kind of thing often on the streets of America..."

Raul eagerly joined in, rubbing Lynch's new clothes in his hands: "The material of these clothes is quite nice! They must have spent a lot of money to thank you!"

"Really..." Lin Qi scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

He wasn't good at being the center of attention, so he quickly changed the subject:

"It's almost noon, and I'm a little hungry. Where should we go to find something to eat?"

"Let's go to that food truck we visited yesterday!" Raul suggested excitedly before Lynch could finish speaking.

"That food truck is open until noon. If we hurry over now, we're sure we can still get some food!"
