Chapter 49 - Chapter 49: New Year, Departure to New York

Putting Xiao Huang on the sofa beside him, Xi Nian leaned back on the comfortable soft back and opened his mobile phone to check the information that he had not had time to check.

Most of the bombardment messages come from Twitter, a personal social network, and some come from text messages.

Xi Nian's popularity in school is actually not very good. The only person who would specifically look for him on Twitter and send him a large amount of information like a virus is his childhood friend.

Good 'brother', Qingmei Gwen.

Xi Nian quickly flipped through the messages on his phone and read them. The first ones Gwen sent were all Christmas greetings and some photos of family and personal holidays.

Run your finger over the photo.

Hey, Gwen looks good in this personal photo of her in pink bunny pajamas, quite pleasing to the eye.

Xi Nian clicked on the collection without hesitation.

During this time, Gwen noticed that it was unusual that he did not reply to the message, so she sent a message to confirm his safety and called him.

On the third day, Gwen still thought that Xinian was missing. Officer George couldn't help but check for his daughter, and only then did he know that Xinian and his family had gone abroad.

I guess Officer George has completely set his sights on him now.

Xi Nian gave a wry smile and quickly replied: "Sorry, Gwen. I made you worry."

"My aunt and I went on vacation. We left in such a hurry that we forgot to tell you."

Less than half a second after he clicked send on the message, Gwen replied: "Humph! If apologies were useful, what would the police be for? I need sincere compensation!"

"Okay, when the time comes, you can propose your compensation conditions, and I will definitely satisfy them if I can." Xi Nian knew he was in the wrong, so he agreed immediately.

Gwen: "That's right. I need to think carefully about the conditions! Don't try to cheat when the time comes!"

"OK." Xi Nian replied and continued to browse other Twitter messages.

He discovered that his schoolmate Kara Danvers had also sent him a blessing message on Christmas Eve.

However, there has been no further information since then. The last update on Kara's personal Twitter was on Christmas Eve five days ago. It seems that she has not been online since then.

"Isn't he going on vacation abroad too..." Xi Nian pondered for a moment, tapping the screen with his fingers to reply to the message.

First, apologize and explain why you didn't reply, then add a belated Christmas greeting, and finally ask about the other person's health and travel situation...

As a senior student's concern.

After three consecutive times.

Xi Nian looked through the class discussion group information again and found that the class instructor had updated the class information. The group trip originally scheduled for mid-January next year had been moved forward to January 1st of the following year, New Year's Day.

And today is the second to last day of 2009.

Isn't this just a week-long Christmas vacation, a day of classes at school, and then a three-day trip to New York?

Xi Nian was speechless, and now he still had some concerns about traveling.

He thought that as long as it was truly pure "travel," it would be fine. It shouldn't be like the two previous so-called trips where he was forced to save the world or undergo arduous training, which was far from the purpose of travel, such as entertainment and relaxation.

After reading and responding to the messages on Twitter, Xi Nian was bored and started to check the news online.

This look.

Xi Nian opened his eyes wide in surprise, subconsciously straightened his back, and sat up straight on the sofa.

His face was solemn as he quickly scrolled down the news on his phone.

During the few days that Xinian stayed in Paradise Island, two things happened in the outside world that became very popular on the entire Internet!

First thing, about the superhero Captain America, Steve Rogers!

As former US Secret Service agent Peggy Carter died of illness, Captain America, who had resurrected from the iceberg and disappeared for more than 70 years, appeared in front of the public for the first time as one of the pallbearers!

Lovers of the same generation have aged in appearance and passed away in body, but Captain America, the first superhero to break through the boundaries of humanity, still looks as young as a young man in his early twenties!

Without peers and comrades fighting together, it is impossible to fulfill that promise. This is extremely cruel for a superhero!

It is also a question of where Captain America should go after crossing the ages and arriving in the 21st century.

The second thing is about the god of the metropolis city—

Superman.

Ever since Superman became famous for his battle against Kryptonian warships and forces more than half a year ago, he has been using his superhuman power to help mankind and is worshipped by many people as a god on earth.

But the direction of fallacy has completely changed in recent days.

Due to excessive damage to buildings and accidental injuries to humans, some citizens of Metropolis began to protest publicly, and the Metropolitan Court announced that it would publicly summon Superman for trial!

The trial date is set for January 2nd next year!

Superhero Superman is likely to be convicted and imprisoned!

After reading the two pieces of important news, Xi Nian couldn't help but frown.

More and more extraordinary people are emerging and reviving in the world. We can only use extraordinary people to fight against extraordinary people, while ordinary people will fear and question the extraordinary people.

The internal and external troubles of the world are like the invisible trend of the times.

"Should we prepare some precautions?" Xi said to himself in a young voice, looking at the little emperor who was sleeping soundly on the sofa next to him.

The young Yuan-devouring Beast, the dormant Venom...

If we don't count my aunt, it's obviously not stable enough.

Xi Nian fell into thought.

No matter what, he must protect the people around him.

Under this premise, he is fearless even if his opponent is an old god, an alien, a superhuman, or a monster.

Two days later, January 1st, New Year's Day.

This is the first day of the new year 2010!

The weather is clear and sunny.

January is usually the coldest month, but this year, the global climate seems out of whack, with temperatures rising steadily since the start of the new year. The outdoor temperature feels more like autumn, and many students have shed their heavy windbreakers and cotton-padded jackets.

At noon, a school bus painted in a conspicuous yellow color stopped at the gate of the middle school.

The male instructor, holding a megaphone, stood at the school gate and shouted, "Students in our class, hurry up, take your belongings, and find seats on the bus."

Students filed out of the teaching building and boarded the school bus.

"Xi Nian, what are you still doing? Get in the car!" the male instructor suddenly shouted towards a place.

"Coming!" Xinian ran out of the teaching building hurriedly with his schoolbag on his back.

He had just dropped by Kara's classroom and discovered she wasn't in class today. Kara hadn't responded to his messages since Christmas Eve, and she'd been on sick leave from school.

This is undoubtedly a cause for some concern.

When Xinian got on the bus, he glanced at the thermos cup in the male instructor's hand, and his eyes twitched slightly.

Why put something else on the rim of the thermos cup? Why put a picture of him fighting Abomination while dressed in women's clothing from behind...

Who can withstand this?

Xi Nian sighed. As soon as he entered the school bus, he saw Gwen waving at him from a seat slightly to the back. The seat next to her, which was coveted by the boys and girls in the class, was occupied by her own small schoolbag.

Xi Nian immediately waved his hand and walked over to the seat next to Gwen.

"Everyone sit tight, ready to go!"

With the deep and powerful guidance of the male instructor, Xi Nian's trip to New York will begin.
