A Wizard's Survival Guide to the 20th Century

Chapter 22 22. Kangaroo Thief
  At this time, the crowded road ahead was gradually clearing up. The cause of the traffic jam seemed to be a collision between a carriage and a car. The accident car had been pulled to the side of the road, and several policemen were surrounding it to deal with it.

The tram starts again.

"Poor." Levi thought to himself, but he suddenly realized that he didn't seem to be any better.

A native of Cangzhou, Han Chuang studied hard for more than ten years and finally got admitted to Hua University of Science and Technology. He has been studying for three years and has performed well during this period and has never even failed a class.

Then he was suddenly thrown into the different world Mi Lijian. If he hadn't just completed CET-6, even communication would have been a problem.

"But at least you found a job." Levi said sarcastically. He felt that finding a job would become his obsession in the next period of time.

"Well, I'm quite satisfied." Martha said, "Don't you have a job?"

"I haven't found it yet..." Levi sighed, "I feel like I've gone to 114514 companies today, but those bullshit capitalists all rejected me. The most annoying thing is that I just met a white supremacist guy... "

Martha nodded: "Indeed, I don't know why, they all hate people of color."

"You just said you came here illegally. Where are you from?"

"The Toltecs."

"Oh." Levi thought about it. This is a country in the south of the United States. They have chili peppers, cactus and Toltec burritos.

"So, public positions are better as expected. At least on the surface, these large companies dare not openly discriminate." Li Wei said, "What do you think of the life of driving a train every day?"

"Well, what did you say?"

Martha asked. At this time, the tram was approaching the Morgan Bank near the city center. You could see the tall marble Roman columns at the entrance of the bank, as well as the plaster sculptures of buttercup tendrils and laminated leaves on the outer wall of the bank.

Levi was stunned. He suddenly thought of the empty tram, how absent-minded Martha looked just now, and how the tram company could hire a stowaway...

"Wait a minute, aren't you an employee of the tram company?"

"Oh, you misunderstood, brother."

Martha let go of the trolley lever, put on a riveted leather jacket under Levi's shocked eyes, put on a black backpack, put on a hood, pulled out the pistol hidden in her ankle, and immediately transformed into a Middle Eastern gangster.

"I rob a bank."

……

"What kind of fate do I have?"

Levi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was his first day in St. Francis, so why did he encounter a bank robbery?

And Levi even boarded her thief ship... thief car.

Martha chuckled: "Brother, at first I thought you were a policeman who arranged to block me in the accident just now, and I was about to stop. Until I saw that you didn't react after listening to my story about my illegal immigration. I was convinced that you were an innocent passerby who mistook me for a tram driver."

"Then let's go to Kegro Supermarket?" Levi asked politely.

"Well..." Mardara, who was wearing a hood, loaded the gun and said with some distress, "I probably won't be able to come back for a while. Can you see if you can drive this car?"

The city tram's lever does not need to be pressed all the time. As long as it is adjusted to the corresponding gear, it can keep moving forward, so this tram is still moving forward slowly.

Levi poked his head into the cab, looked at those familiar long tie rods and recalled his days at the construction site.

But it's always a little strange...Isn't this equivalent to me driving a bus to go shopping?
  "Forget it." Levi shook his head, "I'll get off the bus with you, and I hope they won't think of me as your accomplice."

"Okay~"

The tram stop was only one street away from the bank entrance. Miss Martha turned the lever and the tram slowly slowed down. She jumped off, holding a rope in her hand.

The rope was connected to the accelerator lever, and whenever she pulled it, the tram would continue running, causing chaos in the distance. Levi followed and got out of the car, and Martha raised her palm to him. Li Wei didn't know why, so he also raised his hand, and the two high-fived.

"Don't you wish me success?" Martha, dressed in a very metal punk style, said with a smile.

"But what you did was illegal and disciplined after all." Li Wei said.

"It's really disappointing. I originally planned to stop after this time." Martha said.

"You should check out the casinos in Las Vegas. The gamblers who lose so hard they can't even put their pants on like to say the same thing as you."

Levi sighed: "Okay, I wish you success."

Martha's face under the black gangster mask smiled and walked towards the bank with a swagger.

At this time, only Levi was left standing by the street. Levi scratched his head. He wanted to watch the fun, but he was afraid of being regarded as an accomplice.

Speaking of which, can such an unreliable girl really rob a bank?

Levi hesitated for a moment, watching Martha walk into the bank door, and then there was no movement for a long time.

Success? So simple?
  Li Wei just made up his mind and wanted to take a look, but from the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed several lines of sight shooting towards him.

He looked back and found an old man and an old lady sitting on the bench behind him. A couple passed by with a stroller, their eyes clearly glanced at him, and several children looked at him, muttering, and An obvious number of passers-by pointed at him.

Levi instantly regretted calling himself a fool.

It's six o'clock in the afternoon, when there are the most people. A masked gangster jumped out of the car and walked to the bank in high spirits. Not only did he have a pleasant conversation with her, but he also gave her a high-five to encourage her. What did this mean?
  Li Wei smiled shyly:
  "God, this guy is really a legal worm, a moral scum, and the black sheep of the United States! If he hadn't given me, Dante Sparta from Red Devil City, a piece of pizza on the tram when I was hungry, what would I have done? Will I be deceived by him?"

"Now I finally see his true face clearly! I declare that I, Dante Sparta, will sever all ties with this shameless criminal from now on until death."

Immediately, Levi fled in embarrassment.

……

next morning.

Levi, who was still unemployed, was brushing his teeth when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

He quickly rinsed his mouth, put on the towel, and asked, "Who is it?"

"Your pizza delivery, please open the door!" came the magnetic and cheerful voice that was harmless to humans and animals.

Li Wei was speechless. He was silent for a moment and then said:

"Brother, Pizza Customers was established in 1958, and this year is only 1920..."

The people outside the door were also silent. The awkward atmosphere lasted for a few seconds, and then there was a loud shout:
  "St. Francis Police Department, OPEN THE DOOR!!!"

Immediately afterwards, the dull roar of the door breaker suddenly sounded. Levi watched helplessly as the brand new door lock worth 2 Philippine dollars was smashed from the outside, but before he could wail in pain, four big men in police uniforms came like wildfire. Like a dog pouncing on food, it fell on Levi's body.

With a "bang", Li Wei fell heavily to the ground. Several big men couldn't help but said:
  "The Kangaroo Bandit's accomplice has been caught!"

"Okay, okay, tie him up quickly!"

"quick!"

Several big men scrambled to handcuff Li Wei, put a hood on his head, and rushed downstairs, causing neighbors to look over.

　The prototype of the kangaroo robber comes from a certain Tongliao mouse.
