Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 393 Meeting Rick for the First Time
"My God, you guys are so fast!"

"Of course, who am I? Barkley's fastest man!"

When Carter came to the dormitory on the old campus with his luggage, the door of the B-5 dormitory was already open.In addition to Hadwin and Rocky, there was also a guy who looked a little chunky and thick at first glance, with a big back hair.

Unlike Carter who deliberately wanted to look younger, the guy was well-dressed.It looked a little serious.
"Carter Black! Hello, hello!"

Facing this kind of guy who didn't seem easy to deal with at first glance, Carter immediately put his luggage at the door and stretched out his right hand towards him.

"Hello, just call me Rick! I'll help you!"

After nodding indifferently, he saw the luggage behind Carter.Chunky. Pooh.
In fact, it can’t be considered short at all, and it’s only slightly shorter than me, but at least Rick who is over 176 will pass me, pick up my luggage and move it to the dormitory
"thanks."

With the help of everyone, Carter quickly packed the dormitory.At this time, Hadwin and the others also bid farewell and left. Before leaving, they did not forget to tell Carter that if there is anything they don't know about the campus, they can go to the intersection of Church Street to find them.If you can't find it, just wait a while, they should be helping other freshmen.
After the enthusiastic Yale brothers and sisters left, only Carter and Rick were left in the dormitory.Looking at the roommate who was sitting by the window and who will be with him for at least a year in the future, Carter stepped forward and started to melt the ice:
"It's almost eleven o'clock, are you hungry?"

"No"

He raised his head and glanced at Carter like a fool.Rick shook his head, then added:

"The restaurant is downstairs, next to the first floor of Building C. Or, I have some biscuits here, do you want some?"

"Forget it, let's eat later"

Looking at the bright sun outside the window, it was obvious that I didn't find this topic well.

"it is good!"

Rick is still terse
Carter could feel it from the other person who just offered to help him with his luggage, then cleaned up the room, and tried to share cookies with him.This buddy is not as difficult to get along with as it looks on the surface, it's just the first time they meet, and they can't let go of each other.

Thinking of this, Carter was not in a hurry to start a conversation.He got up and walked under the bed, opened the drawer under the bed, opened the suitcase, and began to stuff the things he brought into it by category.
The perfume from Melis, and a small greeting card wishing my brother to get out of singles in college as soon as possible; Jenny's laundry; and all kinds of messy bits and pieces
The bed configuration in the Yale University dormitory is very interesting.The bed is very high, and you basically have to climb to get on it. The base height is about the same as the desk, not to mention that Carter added an extra thick mattress.If you accidentally fall down in the middle of the night, you may have a concussion
The bed may be designed in this way to prevent students from running to the bed after studying in the dormitory, or it may be something else.Carter didn't know what the root idea of ​​this design was, but what this kind of bed brought was the huge storage space under it.

After working hard for nearly half an hour, he finally poked the small black Yale flag attached to the admission notice on the edge of the bed, at the gap between the mattress and the bed, and Carter suddenly felt as if there was a divine will in the dark!

The small black flag of Yale with white letters on a black background corresponds to the black flag bank that I have just changed its name, so it is not a good match!
After finishing everything, Carter turned around and turned his attention to Rick.I saw Rick, who was sitting by the window at this time, had made himself a cup of coffee at some point, and there was a small dish of sugar cubes beside the small coffee cup, which meant he would enjoy life!
Holding a book in his hand, he was reading it absent-mindedly.Following the hard spine of the book, Carter saw the title of the book: "On War".
"Hey Rick! Are you hungry now? Let's go get some food. Also, I want to ask, do you know where ROTC students register?"

"You also applied for the ROTC program?!"

Hearing Carter's call, Rick raised his head from the book with a startled expression.

In this era when anti-war thinking is the mainstream, there are not many students who apply for ROTC voluntarily
"Listen to what you mean, you too?!"

For the same reason, Carter was also surprised.My roommate actually has the same identity as me, uh, to be precise, work and rest time!

"Which branch of the military did you apply for?"

"Army, what about you?"

"It's a coincidence, so am I!"

Carter almost laughed out loud, the common topic of breaking the ice, isn't this here? !
"Really? Why don't you think about applying for the Army?"

Sure enough, upon hearing that both of them were students of the Army ROTC program.Rick's words became much closer. He put down the book in his hand, walked up to Carter, looked up and down, left and right, and looked at Carter like an alien:

"If you want to go to the Army, why don't you go to Massachusetts?"

"MIT? Damn, that kind of science school is not suitable for me. I'm just an academic bastard. Let alone me. Since you said that I can't think about choosing the Army program, what about you? Why did you choose the Army?"

"I am a tradition in my family. My father was in the army, my grandfather was in the army, and my great-grandfather was also in the army. In this case, if I choose the air force or navy, I will not be interrupted when I go back. !"

Thinking about the rumored military dispute in the US military, it seems that this is not impossible.After all, I don’t seem to have heard of the saying that the U.S. military is a family no matter what military branch it is. On the contrary, the saying of one, two, three, four, etc. is more widely circulated.
After giving the unfortunate child a sympathetic look, the distance between the two quickly narrowed.

"Understood, I'm different from you, I should just hang out. My mother said that I was too lonely in high school, and hoped that I could make more friends in college, so she enrolled me in the ROTC program, hoping to force me to go out and make friends .”

Pulling out the ROTC application documents from the document bag, Carter raised his eyebrows at Rick:
"Bring yours, too. We'll go straight to finish this after dinner. See if there are any daily necessities that are missing in the afternoon, and replenish them. In the evening. Just now Hadwin and the others invited me to have dinner together, and you too How about a piece? In the evening, let’s take a good look around this place where we will live for four years in the future!”

"What do you call withdrawn?! Do I have a wrong understanding of the word withdrawn? I don't see the feeling of introversion and withdrawn in you at all, and I even feel that you are much more outgoing than me! You see, you just now Now, someone has already invited you! No one invited me except you."

Rick has a little resentment, and he also has a little mmp in his heart
Am I just slowing down a bit? !Why don't these people bring themselves to play? !Look at the volunteers who sent Carter to the dormitory, and think about your morning wave.
The gap! !

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter! You'll get used to it after just playing around, let's go for a walk! Eat first, eat first."
