Tom cat breaking through the dimensional wall

Chapter 150 Dad: "Jackie Chan, a cat is more sensible than you"

"Nice job, Maomao, but I still can't adopt you, sorry."

Jackie Chan patted Tom on the head, walked past it, and went in to check the room.After all, it is for my niece to live in, so I still have to serve snacks.

In addition to the room on the ship, Papa's Antique Shop also had to arrange a room for Xiaoyu.

After all, children can't stay in a humid place like this on a boat all the time, and they still have to live on land every once in a while.

"pat"

The broom in Tom Mu's hand fell to the ground. Looking at Jackie Chan, a ruthless man, Tom narrowed his eyes angrily.

I didn't expect that even though I helped clean up, I still couldn't impress this man's heart.

It seems that it is more difficult for Jackie Chan to take the initiative to adopt him. Sure enough, he still has to find a way from Xiaoyu and his father.

Fortunately, according to Jackie Chan's phone call just now, it can be heard that Dad and Xiaoyu are coming back soon.

Then Tom will stop doing useless work, and wait for the father and the others to come back later, just go directly to attack the father and Xiaoyu.

Tom ignored Jackie Chan, turned around and ran out of the room, and ran directly to the living room on the first floor.

Anyway, no matter what happened to Jackie Chan, he decided to stay here and not leave.

Jackie Chan is also very helpless to Tom, a strange cat who relies on him, but with his character, it is impossible for him to drag Tom out and throw him away.

Knowing Jackie Chan's character, Tom lay down on the sofa in the living room with peace of mind.

When Jackie Chan came down, he happened to see Tom building a pillow castle on the sofa with pillows.

Tom, the cat, nestled comfortably in the pillow castle, watching the big TV in the living room through the "door gap".

Unexpectedly, Tang Mu actually stayed here, and Jackie Chan also sighed helplessly.

At this moment, Jackie Chan's cell phone on his belt rang again.

Jackie Chan thought that Dad had something to explain, so he connected the phone again.

"Hello? Dad?"

While talking on the phone, he came down the stairs.

"Jack, this is William."

To Jackie Chan's surprise, it was not Dad who was speaking on the phone, but another young man's voice.

As for Jack, that is Jackie Chan's English name, and some friends will call him Jackie Chan by that.

In this era of Xiangjiang, it is quite normal to have an English name.

"William? Have you returned to Xiangjiang?"

Jackie Chan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect William to call him.

This William is a good friend of Jackie Chan, who studies physics and has been developing in the United States before, but he did not expect to come back suddenly at this time.

Judging by the time, William probably returned on the same flight as Xiaoyu.

It's just that Xiaoyu is still at the airport because she waited for her at the airport for two hours.

And William came directly after getting off the plane, and now he was almost at Jackie Chan's tower crane.

Listening to William's words on the phone, it seems that he has something to ask himself, and he is quite urgent.

"Okay, you are here, then come directly."

Jackie Chan hung up the phone, turned around and went to a small bar in the living room to make coffee.

It didn't take long for William, wearing a peaked cap, to arrive here.

Tom also poked his head out of the pillow castle to look at the uninvited guest.

William, who looks exactly the same as Liang Jiahui, just entered the living room when he was startled by the naughty Tom.

"Jack! Do you have a cat?!"

While talking, William stared at Tom, moving sideways like a crab, always keeping a certain distance from Tom.

Tom Mu could see that this guy might be a little afraid of cats.

Thinking of this, Tom got out of the pillow castle, fell to the ground, and stretched a lot.

Seeing Tom jumping off the sofa, William took another step back, keeping a distance from Tom, his eyes fixed on Tom's movements, and his body language showed a defensive state.

Jackie Chan at the small bar over there had already made coffee, came over with two cups of coffee, put the coffee on the glass tea table, then looked at William and raised his chin: "Sit down."

"No, I'll just stand here."

William walked around to Jackie Chan, keeping a distance of three meters from Tom all the time.

Taking the cup handed over by Jackie Chan, William raised his hand and took a sip of coffee, his eyes still fixed on Tom and did not look away.

"You're still so afraid of cats."

Jackie Chan casually sat down on the single sofa.

"You know me, I was scratched by a cat when I was a child, and I've been afraid of cats since then. Also, didn't you say that you are usually busy with research and don't have time to keep pets?"

Seeing Jackie Chan sitting down on the sofa, William followed him to the edge of the sofa.

"I don't have a pet. I don't know if this cat is a stray cat or someone's cat got lost. I met it on the street, and it has been following me back."

Speaking of this, Jackie Chan turned sideways, looked at William, and said with a smile: "It's just that I also have a headache. What should I do with this cat? You can take it away. Maybe you have been with the cat for a long time, and you don't know what to do with it." So afraid of cats."

"No, no, no! Let's forget it."

William shook his head quickly, and said again: "Jack, I came to you this time for something important."

"What's the matter? I can't say it on the phone, so I made a special trip here."

Jackie Chan drank his coffee and looked at his friends who had played since childhood.

"Didn't you say that there is a problem with your funding, and the research funding has been cut in half. I came here from the United States to help you solve the funding problem."

Speaking of business, William's eyes were filled with anticipation, he gestured to the laptop on the coffee table, and asked, "Do you mind if I use it?"

"up to you."

Jackie Chan relaxed and leaned back on the sofa, wondering what William wanted to do.

"I want you to do something for me."

While talking, William has already started to operate the computer.

Tom Mu also watched curiously from the side.

It found that although this world is in the early 90s, the technological products are a bit higher than those of the main world in the 90s.

It has fully reached the post-millennium level.

Although Jackie Chan is still using a mobile phone, Tom seriously suspects that it's just that Jackie Chan can't afford a better mobile phone.

Along the way on the street, Tom Ke saw many people using smaller and lighter mobile phones.

There are candy bars, sliding screens, and folding phones.

It is similar to the mobile phone ecology in the main world in [-].

At that time, there were all kinds of mobile phone models, which was called a hundred flowers blooming.

After some fiddling, the TV that was still playing Teresa Teng's singing was suddenly switched.

On the TV screen, four people appeared in it.

The red dot of the camera clipped to the TV screen lit up, apparently starting to work.

This is a video call.

"Hi, William. Is this Dr. Jackie next to you?"

On the other side of the video, there are four people.

Two men and two women, three of them are foreigners, and only one woman is obviously Chinese.

It was the Hua country woman who spoke at this moment.

"Call me Jackie Chan, or Jack."

Seeing that the video call had started, Jackie Chan straightened his body and did not lie on the sofa again.

"I'm Meng Qi, welcome to join our anti-gravity research program."

The only woman of Chinese descent looked dignified, looked at the camera with a smile, and introduced herself to Jackie Chan with a smile.

"anti-gravity?"

Jackie Chan was a little confused, and turned to look at William beside him.

He didn't quite understand that he was just an archaeological researcher, how could a project like anti-gravity, which sounds very sci-fi, come to him.

"This is my laboratory, keep reading."

William gestures to the TV.

When Jackie Chan heard the words, he temporarily suppressed his doubts and looked at the screen.

Meng Qi raised her hand to gesture to a bearded foreigner beside her, and said with a smile, "Why don't you ask Dr. Smith to introduce this project to us."

While talking, Meng Qi picked up the remote control on the conference table and pressed it, and the camera on their side immediately moved to the left, capturing a larger space in their laboratory: "Doctor, please."

Dr. Smith and Meng Qi left from the conference table and walked to a huge glass curtain wall next to them.

Behind the transparent material of unknown material is a seemingly huge but precise instrument.

"The scientific community has long had such a theory that accelerating rotation can reduce the weight of matter. But this is a very expensive experiment, not only cannot be put into practical use, but also can not be used in regeneration experiments, because organisms simply cannot bear this kind of experiment. speed."

While talking, Dr. Smith zoomed in on the camera, showing Jackie Chan the details of the instrument.

It shows that they are indeed conducting related experiments and have made some progress, but due to various problems, they finally got stuck in the bottleneck.

Saying so, Dr. Smith looked at the camera again: "William, do you want to continue the introduction?"

"Thank you, Doctor, just a brief introduction. Mainly to show Jack our laboratory."

As he spoke, the video call was hung up, and the TV went black.

Jackie Chan moved his butt on the sofa, looked sideways at William, and said puzzledly: "I don't understand, you studied physics, I studied archaeology, and I don't understand the anti-gravity you mentioned, how can I help you?"

William smiled confidently, pulled his shoulder bag in front of him, took out an authoritative archeology magazine from it, looked at Jackie Chan and said with a smile: "Now I hope to find a way out of all the mysterious phenomena. Do you remember this article you wrote?"

Without even opening the magazine, the title of the article William said was printed on the cover of the magazine.

"More than 2000 years ago, there was a small country on the southern border of Desha. Once an emperor became a fairy after his death, and his coffin was floating in the air."

While speaking, William opened the magazine and showed Jackie Chan the article written by Jackie Chan.

There are also illustrations in this magazine.

Among them are photos of Jackie Chan with a younger face and a very bright smile, and Jackie Chan's hand-drawn drawings of the building of the holy place.

"This article of yours inspired me."

William pointed to the illustration on this page, looking directly at Jackie Chan with a solemn expression.

Listening to William's words, Jackie Chan showed a helpless smile on his face.

He shook his head and said with a helpless smile: "This is just a myth in the legend."

After finishing speaking, he stood up straight away, and said, "I have comic books, and I'll lend them to you."

While speaking, Jackie Chan really strode to the other side of the cabin to get the comic books.

Just like my father was talking to Jackie Chan about his past life and present life on the phone just now, Jackie Chan at this time is still a staunch materialist and does not believe in the existence of various myths and legends at all.

Any myth, for Jackie Chan, is just a medium for studying history.

What's more funny is that Jackie Chan, who is an archaeologist, doesn't believe in myths and legends.

On the contrary, William, as a scientist, turned to seek help from supernatural forces when scientific research encountered a bottleneck.

Pinned their hopes on supernatural powers.

"Before there is scientific verification, many things can be called myths."

William believed in his ideas.

Seeing Jackie strode away without looking back, William became a little anxious and quickly followed.

When Tom was by the side of the road, he suddenly remembered that there was a cat here, so he quickly walked a little farther, and quickly chased after Jackie Chan: "Hey! Jack! Jack!"

"150 years ago, wireless telephones were a myth! Airplanes were a myth! Landing on the moon was a huge myth! Even 50 years ago! Aren't computers and digital technology also a myth?!"

William chased Jackie Chan all the way to his studio in the cabin, looked at the back of Jackie Chan looking for it on the shelf, and continued to persuade persistently: "Do you know how many people are rushing to research this technology?"

"If my research is successful, I will change the history of mankind! In the future, our life, transportation on the ground, flight in the air, and even future interstellar immigration will all be closely related to this technology!"

Hearing William's words, Jackie Chan understood that his friend was serious.

With a sigh, Jackie Chan stopped looking for comic books for William.

Turning around and sitting on his usual work seat, looking at William, he agreed and said seriously: "I know you have always wanted to do something big. No one has ever entered this ancient tomb."

Jackie Chan said, paused for a moment, then tapped his chest with his hand, and said solemnly: "Archaeology is my job, and I have my working principles. I just do research and never rob tombs!"

"And even if there is really something in that ancient tomb, it belongs to Desha, not yours, not mine, and not from the United States."

"You can't learn from the Angsa people. If you like something from someone else, just steal it and grab it. You can call it for research, for the development of science, and for human beings."

"If you really want to, you can formally submit a cooperation application to them."

"I've applied and they're totally against it."

William put his hands on Jackie Chan's work table and shook his head helplessly.

"Since people don't agree, there's nothing I can do about it. William, there are some things we can't do." Jackie Chan said firmly, apparently not planning to mess around with William.

He is a principled person in doing things, and this original work is still very firm.

It is also because of this that it is so difficult for Tom to let Jackie Chan adopt him.

As long as he relaxes his principles a little bit, Tom has already achieved his goal.

At this point in the conversation, the atmosphere on both sides is obviously not right.

After all, William is still Jackie Chan's good friend, and it is rare to come back from the United States. Jackie Chan does not want the atmosphere to continue to be so cold.

So he forced a laugh and changed the subject: "Are you still playing golf? Go up and play two shots."

"Okay."

William smiled too.

Jackie got up, and the two walked towards the stairs together.

While going upstairs, Jackie Chan was still looking for a topic: "That Meng Qi, are you the girlfriend?"

William: "No, she is the sponsor representative of my laboratory. Ah, by the way, haven't you found a girlfriend yet?"

Picking up a golf club at random from the ball barrel on the second floor, Jackie Chan shook his head and said, "Don't even think about girlfriends. I'm usually so busy that I don't even have time to raise a cat, let alone a girlfriend." gone."

"And I've been having a strange dream recently. I dreamed that I became an ancient general, and a princess who didn't know where she came from often appeared in the dream, named Yushu, which made me feel a little nervous. , how can I find a girlfriend in the mood."

Watching Jackie Chan and William chatting on the roof, it seems that they are going to continue chatting while playing.

Tom could not help shaking his head.

Miserable, Jackie Chan is miserable now.

He had promised his father to pick up Xiaoyu at the airport, but was delayed by something, and completely forgot that Xiaoyu was still waiting for him at the airport.

Now I promised my father to tidy up the room and buy tea and mung bean sandwiches for my father, but now it seems that I was interrupted by William and forgot.

Tom could even imagine the scene where Jackie Chan was taught by his father after his father came back.

Maybe, I can do something now, Tom thought so.

On the other side, Jackie Chan came to the roof deck of the ship, although he wanted to change the subject as much as possible.

But William was obviously still a little bit reconciled.

Finally brought the subject back: "Jack, come on. You're not a stickler. You've always trusted your instincts."

"You once discovered by intuition that the Dead Sea Scrolls were forged! Jack, your intuition didn't tell you. I just wanted to prove that it was a fact, not a myth."

"You're my best friend, and I'm sure you wouldn't let me go on an adventure alone, would you?"

William and Jackie Chan walked to the golf table together, stopped in front of Jackie Chan, looked at Jackie Chan with sincere eyes, and began to play the emotional card.

William knew that only in this way could Jackie Chan's original work be loosened.

In essence, Jackie Chan is an extremely emotional person.

In fact, this trick is really effective.

Looking at the friend in front of him, Jackie Chan's mood is very complicated.

Opening his mouth, Jackie Chan wanted to say something, but suddenly heard his father's voice from the other side of the stairs.

"Oh! Jackie Chan! I asked you to buy tea and mung bean sandwiches for Dad! Dad hasn't even had lunch yet, do you want to starve Dad to death!"

Hearing this voice, Jackie Chan, who still wanted to talk to William, was shocked!
With a "slap" slap on the forehead, Jackie Chan said angrily: "Unlucky! I forgot about it!"

Turning his head to look, he saw that his father had already come up to the roof deck.

"Father, listen to my explanation."

Jackie Chan still wants to explain.

But the old man stepped forward quickly, raised two fingers and knocked hard on Jackie Chan's forehead!
"Ow!"

It hurt so much, Jackie quickly covered his forehead.

"Oh, you didn't take Dad seriously. You have screwed up so many things recently."

Seeing that Dad was so angry, Jackie Chan rubbed his forehead and said with some shame: "I'm sorry, Dad, it's all my fault. I really forgot to buy something for you."

While the two were talking, the old man felt his trouser legs being pulled by something.

He looked down and saw that it was a big cat.

Its paws are holding a paper bag, which contains the tea and mung bean sandwiches it just bought.

Seeing this situation, the old man happily picked up the paper bag, patted Tom on the head affectionately, and looked at Jackie Chan reproachfully: "Look, a cat is more sensible than you."

Looking at Tom at his father's feet, Jackie Chan was speechless...
