The streets were wet in the evening, and the light from the street lamps was no more than the oil and water in a beggar's bowl, but there were always some people who went out at night, perhaps because of the hard work of the day that they had the leisure to have a drink to relieve their fatigue, or perhaps it was simpler, that the old drunkard had just woken up from his dream again.But there was no business in the bar today, only the man who was the owner and bartender leaned against the bar, looked up at the hanging TV, absentmindedly wiped the glass in his hand, and the beautiful carved cup made a screeching sound, as if he was screaming.Normally, this time is supposed to be the peak of passenger flow, but now it is different.Two years have passed, and the official investigation into Skull Island has been reopened again, and it is still the damn 'Overlord' group that is executed with the shit-eating politicians in Washington.A few days ago, at a press conference, when the black doctor, dressed like a painter, said that there might be a gateway to an alternate world under Skull Island, people went crazy almost instantly, and then all kinds of rumors and speculations spread uncontrollably.Not much was known about the island in the past, except that there were monsters on that island, gorillas taller than mountains, and giant lizards that were much bigger than any dinosaur.The last time the government's investigation was a failure, but this time it is a larger-scale operation, and people have no confidence in their hearts.Is that kind of monster really something that humans can fight against?
There is much more to the monster on the earth than just that orangutan, maybe at this moment, there is some ancient creature sleeping under everyone's feet, and the next second the entire city will die.Just like the incident that happened at the Guam Naval Base seven years ago, a revived monster rose from the ground, destroyed the fleet and headquarters in a matter of seconds, and then disappeared into the vast sea.The majority of the population now believes that what is beneath Skull Island is not a good thing, at least not something that humans should touch, and that is Pandora's box.Skull Island is still too close to the west coast of the United States, and if human behavior attracts other monsters to the island, hundreds of kilometers by sea will even be the length of a swimming pool for those behemoths, and they will likely come to destroy the United States.Unfortunately, the U.S. policy is not decided by the people, so now people can only watch the TV with their eyes on the so-called "Overlord" group members at the San Diego base, carrying all kinds of high-tech equipment to board the improved Osprey transport plane.The host was very beautiful, and she was still smiling and introducing the 'international' meaning of the Overlord Organization, which is a special force owned by the United States and its allies, a defense contractor enterprise integrating scientific research, investigation, combat, and production.Although the main personnel of the combat unit are basically 'retired' personnel of the US military, there are also blacks from France, American-Japanese mixed-race people from Japan, Canadians who come to the United States to work, and so on, everyone can be regarded as a good hand, at least a little famous in the corresponding small circle.With the introduction of the host, the camera swept over the faces of those people, and the Japanese among them also bowed politely to the camera, in exchange for how many laughter and scolding in front of the screen.In the eyes of the American people, today, when Japan has been landed by monsters year after year, it is right to hug our thighs like a slave, what a cunning dwarf.The helicopter lifts off, and the camera quickly switches to the outpost on Skull Island, which is the wreckage of the outpost left over from two years ago, and now the early engineering troops are rushing to repair it to complete the landing site for the arrival of follow-up troops.Not far from the base is the lush rainforest and mountains, the island seems to be one size bigger, plants, animals, and even insects, people feel like they have entered the land of giants, and this mysterious country is still shrouded in thick fog all year round.As if knowing that the audience wanted to enjoy the scenery, the outpost flew a reconnaissance drone and let it take the people behind the camera to see the mountains and mountains behind the fog, as if this would prove the right decision of the politicians - there was a lot to be gained from capturing Skull Island.At the same time, maybe the flight is too monotonous, and the director also played the golden song "OldTownRoad" in 2019 this year, which for a while feels like returning to the era of the great western wilderness, and the fearless and dashing men will use knives, guns and fire to create the road to the future.The owner of the bar was not impressed, he just listened to the song and sighed, feeling a little helpless that his bar existed in San Diego, the closest city in the continental United States to Skull Island.But at this moment, there was a sound of pushing and pulling from the door of the store, and the boss threw the cup cloth in his hand on his shoulder and turned around, and threw out a greeting lukewarmly: "Welcome to the city closest to hell." ”The first to enter was a stout white man, who looked to be in his thirties and forties, with long black hair disheveled over his shoulders, dressed in jeans and high boots, and a black shirt on his upper body, the contours of which were clearly visible.This man was in the dust, I don't know how long the car had just stopped, his face had a more old vicissitudes, the cuffs were rolled up to reveal the front half of his forearm, and he had an anchor tattoo, he might be a sailor.Behind the man, there was a little girl who was only about thirteen or fourteen years old, but unfortunately she was not a good child at first glance, the powder on her face made her look like a ghost, and the thick colored eyeshadow and exaggerated lip gloss proved that she seemed to be in a less stable mental state.Dressed like a college hottie in a black sailor suit, she blatantly put her arms around men, grinned, chewed gum and sat down at the bar, her messy little hands pulling out a few balls of dollars and slapping them in front of her: "Get us some local booze, by the way, this is California, and a plate of tacos for a snack." ”"I can't sell you alcohol, girl, you're under the legal age to drink."
The bar owner just poured a glass of wine for the man who didn't look easy to mess with, then turned around and went to pound it on a large plate of fried charcuterie: "I should have asked you to leave my shop, but today......
Make an exception for a glass of milk in the store. ”The girl didn't drink wine, but she was even happier, squinted and jumped off the bar stool, pulled the corner of her miniskirt with her hand and turned around, and then used her waist and crotch to push the man who was silently tasting wine on the side: "Did you hear that?"
Honey, he said I'm not old enough, I'm so young, hahahahahaha!
”The man just smiled and picked her up, put her on a chair next to him, and smoothed her hair with his fingers: "If you call me dear again, the boss of the family should call the police, and you don't want your father to go to jail during the short vacation, right?"
”"Hee-hee-hee-......."
The girl bit her lower lip and raised her eyebrows, she likes the father-daughter play, which is exciting.
