Chapter 36

~2 min read 361 words

The next day.

Hawk got up early, put on his clothes and shoulder bag, and then left with the documents Mrs. Snow had given him to catch the subway.

He had originally thought about taking the bus.

As everyone knows.

The Niuyuecheng subway is hard to describe.

Unfortunately, Hawk discovered that there was no direct bus from his new apartment to the Oscorp building; if he took the bus, he would need to transfer three times.

Calculating it this way, it was better to take the subway.

At the very least, if you have no morals, you can ride the subway for free.

In a word.

You can jump the subway turnstiles, and even if you don't jump the fare, the transportation cost is cheaper than taking the bus.

So Hawk simply decided to take the subway.

Only...

He regretted it as soon as he got on the subway.

Stinky!

Too stinky.

The various colorful smells swarming in from all directions made Hawk seal his sense of smell at lightning speed.

But if it were just the foul smell, that would be one thing.

There were also many people acting up in the carriage.

A hippie holding a guitar, howling like a ghost, fantasizing about becoming a great musician one day.

And not far away, a black woman who looked like a tank from every angle, with a golden python wrapped around her neck.

God knows how she brought that thing in.

But that wasn't the main point.

As everyone knows, if you were to list the places in Niuyuecheng where you encounter the most pickpockets, the subway carriage would definitely be on the list.

And sure enough, a black guy in a hoodie and dark skin set his sights on Hawk.

His intuition told him that Hawk was a subway rookie.

A so-called subway rookie refers to those passengers who don't take the subway often and don't understand the dangers of the subway carriage and the unpredictability of human hearts.

This type of passenger might not be very wealthy, but they are definitely the easiest prey, so they are defined by their peers in the theft world as subway rookies.
