American Comic Survival Guide

Chapter 80: Christmas



Christine carefully helped Gao Fei to treat the wound. After the medicine, the wound really didn't hurt as much as before.

Calling Christine who was resting to work overtime, and giving her such a big problem, Goofy felt a little embarrassed and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, Christine, for causing you trouble."

Christine smiled and shook her head: "Don't be so polite, you once saved my life. Compared to your help to me, what I did was just a small effort."

"Well... you must be hungry after a long day of work? I invite you to dinner?" Gao Fei suggested. After the strengthening of his body, he needs to take in five times the calories before, so Goofy's appetite and digestion ability have greatly increased. In fact, he has been hungry since Christine gave him the medicine, and now he is even more hungry. The chest is attached to the back.

And when Christine heard this, the deer couldn't help but bump into each other - is this a date?

"How is it? Christine, are you hungry?" Seeing that Christine didn't answer for a long time, Goofy couldn't help but ask again.

"Of course no problem, then I'll change clothes now." Christine blushed and whispered, then turned around and got into the bedroom to change clothes.

For dinner, the two ate steak at a small restaurant near Christine's apartment. Beef can provide Goofy with more energy.

After dinner, Gao Fei took Christine to the hospital to work the night shift. Along the way, he saw that the businesses and houses on the street had begun to decorate for Christmas. The most lively carnival of the American people—Christmas is coming soon.

When parting at the hospital entrance, Christine suddenly asked Goofy timidly: "Officer Goofy, who will you spend Christmas with?"

"Well..." Gao Fei fell into deep thought, recalling previous Christmases in his mind.

In Gao Fei's original world, Christmas is an imported product from the West. Although young people have accepted this traditional festival under the influence of Western culture, Gao Fei's parents are not interested in this festival.

When he mentioned Christmas, Gao Fei recalled his mother's complaints about Christmas in his mind: "What does this foreigner's festival have to do with us? The country doesn't give us holidays! All festivals that don't have holidays can't be called festivals. It's an anniversary at best!"

Gao Fei couldn't help laughing, the mother-in-law's complaints were really steady and ruthless.

But halfway through the laugh, the smile on Gao Fei's face froze again...

It's been three months since I came to the Marvel World, and I don't know what the original world was like. Is Goofy in that world dead? Disappeared? Or just can't sleep? What about Mom and Dad now?

The concern for his family is like a thorn in Gao Fei's heart. Every time his heart beats, the wound will be painful. Although he now has five times the abilities of ordinary people, he has nothing to do with this issue. …

At this time, Christine's voice came from his ear: "Goofy? Goofy? What's wrong with you?"

It was only then that Goofy realized that he had left Christine dry for a long time.

"Oh, nothing, just reminds me of Christmas in previous years." Gao Fei said with a smile.

"Then... Who are you going to spend Christmas with this year?" Kristin summoned the courage to ask again.

Gao Fei shook his head: "I haven't thought about it yet, maybe I'll be alone."

Christine asked tentatively, "Or..."

Gao Fei understood what Christine meant, but he didn't want to have too much involvement with people in this world. After all, no matter how colorful the world was, it wouldn't be his home after all.

"I still have something to do in the bureau, so I'll go first. Thank you for your help today, Christine." Goofy patted the little nurse on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Okay, okay..." Christine's heart flashed a trace of loss, but she forced a smile to send to Goofy, "Goodbye, Officer Goofy."

"Goodbye, Christine." Goofy whispered, turning and blending into the bright night of Brooklyn.

—————

Christmas has finally come.

The whole of Brooklyn, the whole of New York, and even the whole of America are immersed in a grand holiday atmosphere.

Gao Fei in the apartment is not happy. He can always feel that he is out of tune with this world from time to time.

At the same time, a verse recited in his school days kept circling in his mind - "I miss my relatives every festive season".

In the morning, Auntie Wang and Cheng Jieqian called successively and invited Gao Fei to celebrate Christmas with them. It seemed that Auntie Wang, who was deeply oriental, had also become a prisoner of Christmas. Auntie Wang on the phone was obviously beaming. look.

Not to mention Jessie, she herself is a girl who grew up under the influence of Western culture. Like everyone else, Jessie is very excited about the arrival of Christmas.

But Gao Fei politely declined the invitation of the mother and daughter. He was not ready to integrate into Christmas. He just wanted to nest in the small sofa in his apartment and silently worry about his father and mother in another world.

Besides, he couldn't wait to plan his own sacrifice, because it was the only way for him to return to his homeland.

As long as I can see the vicissitudes and kindness of my father and mother again, I have nothing to fear.

As night fell, thousands of lights were lit outside the window, and various styles of "Christmas Divine Comedy" came from the streets, most of which Gao Fei was familiar with.

Turn on the TV~www.NovelMTL.com~ The content on the screen is also closely related to Christmas. Everyone is telling about their origins with this festival and sharing their holiday experience.

And around 7:30 in the evening, Frank, who had never been home at night, actually came back. The old guy was carrying two bottles of champagne and a pizza from a corner fast food restaurant. Fei grinned.

"Merry Christmas, my nephew, my uncle invited you to a Christmas dinner today!"

Frank staggered to the restaurant and took out two champagne glasses, and then opened the champagne.

"Today is a grand festival, we have to have a drink..." Frank reluctantly filled two glasses of wine with trembling hands, and then handed one of them to Goofy.

Gao Fei shook his head helplessly: "Frank, I don't drink."

It's not that he doesn't want to drink, it's that the superhero system doesn't let him.

Frank was slightly taken aback: "Huh? Goofy, I remember you've already passed the legal drinking age, right? Or is my memory wrong? Damn...Am I confused? Goofy, what year is this year? 2008? Or 2007?"

Goofy patted Frank on the shoulder: "Frank, this has nothing to do with the law, I don't want to drink today."

"Why?" Frank looked puzzled. "Goofy, today is Christmas, the most important day of the year. It's a bit unwise for you to stay awake on such a good day!"

Gao Fei had to find an excuse to prevaricate: "Maybe the police station will have a mission later? I have to plan ahead."

"Come on, who would choose to commit crimes on Christmas, when even the criminals go home for the holidays, okay? Come on Goofy and have a drink with me, you wouldn't want your poor disabled uncle on such a day. Pour your own drink?" Frank grimaced, and began to sell miserably again.
