Swish!
Leon walked to the window and pulled open the curtains.
Warm sunlight instantly shone onto his body.
Holding Botamon in his arms, he stretched lazily.
This was his second day in the Marvel Universe.
Right, the DigiGoggles!
Leon’s gaze drifted toward the goggles on the table nearby.
He quickly put Botamon aside, then put on the goggles and looked toward it.
“Digital Eye!”
In an instant, the DigiGoggles released a red glow, and all information regarding Botamon appeared before him.
However, this information was basically identical to what was shown on the Digivice.
What exactly was the use of these goggles?
Were they just for looking cool?
Leon put away the goggles again.
The Farrell Café where he worked did not open on weekends, so he did not need to work today and could sleep until now.
However, he did not plan to waste his weekend either, because he had already thought of a way to make money!
“Let’s go!” Leon looked toward Botamon, who had already transferred from the sofa to the carpet and was bouncing around nonstop.
“I’ll take you out to play!”
()??
Botamon’s two ears twitched, revealing an expression full of anticipation.
…
Beep beep!
Several minutes later, on the streets of Queens, a battered black Crown Victoria barely brushed past a red cargo truck, almost causing a huge accident.
The truck driver rolled down the window and could not help cursing loudly, “Are you trying to die?!
Do you even know how to drive?!”
“Phew, that was close…”
In the driver’s seat of the Crown Victoria, Leon wiped the cold sweat off his face.
Today, the car had finally started successfully, so it had at least given him some face, but… this thing was seriously difficult to drive.
Although he also had a driver’s license before transmigrating, because he had not driven for a long time, coupled with how unreliable this broken car was, Leon had encountered danger after danger on the road.
Several times, he almost became a public road killer.
When Leon finally parked the car, he discovered that the backpack in the passenger seat had already shaken so hard that even the zipper had come open.
(,,#?Д?)
Botamon’s golden eyes were already filled with tears.
Its entire body trembled nonstop as it pitifully peeked at Leon through the tiny opening in the backpack.
“Alright alright, it’s okay now.”
Seeing this scene, Leon instantly felt endless motherly love being awakened inside him.
He quickly picked Botamon up, gently stroked the fluff on its body, and said in a doting tone, “Good boy, don’t be scared.”
Botamon pitifully rubbed against Leon’s hand.
Smelling his familiar scent, it gradually calmed down.
As it settled down, Leon discovered that Botamon’s Growth Value had increased again. Visit g.com for the full chapter.
It was already at 20 now.
It seemed that interacting with Digimon and increasing affection could also help them grow.
?(ˊ〇ˋ*)?
The frightened Botamon now seemed sleepy.
After yawning once, it rolled around inside Leon’s arms and quickly fell asleep.
Leon lovingly smoothed its fur before carefully putting it back into the backpack, opening the car door, and stepping out.
This place was the largest used car trading market in Queens!
Actually, when Leon saw Eva checking the stock market in the café yesterday, he had vaguely developed this idea.
He wanted to buy Stark Industries stock!
As a transmigrator, he naturally possessed an advantage that could not be ignored—that was his familiarity with the Marvel Universe.
He knew Tony Stark would return very soon after disappearing, and he also knew how explosively Stark Industries stock would soar once Iron Man appeared.
Once Tony was successfully rescued by the military, then Stark Industries would shut down its weapons department, and immediately afterward Tony would publicly admit that he was Iron Man…
At this timing, whatever Leon bought would definitely profit!
Unfortunately, stock trading still required capital.
Right now, the most valuable thing Leon possessed was this second-hand Crown Victoria.
Although it had plenty of issues, since the original owner had successfully used it to pick up girls again and again, it naturally had its own unique advantages.
But Leon had no use for it for the time being.
He might as well sell it first and use the money as capital to buy Stark Industries stock.
Once Tony Stark returned, he would make a huge profit!
Hehehe…
Leon could not help falling into fantasy.
But very quickly, the used car dealer’s words dealt Leon a heavy blow.
“What the hell?
This car of mine is only worth 5,000 dollars?”
Leon could not believe his ears.
“You’ve got to be mistaken, right?
This is the most classic Crown Victoria…”
“This broken car is everywhere in New York.
How is it classic?”
The dealer arrogantly blew a huge puff of smoke toward Leon.
“Not to mention your car’s condition is complete garbage.
I’m already surprised you managed to start it and drive it here.
Giving you 5,000 means 1,000 of that is pure respect.”
“Big brother, can’t you be a little flexible?” Leon bargained.
“How about… adding a little more respect?
6,000?”
“One final price.
5,500.
“…”
In the end, Leon helplessly only received 5,500 dollars.
Actually, more than five thousand dollars was not a small amount for an ordinary person, but who told him he had such a scam-like system?
Only spending money could make him stronger, so naturally the more money he had, the better.
Including the two dollars he found in his wallet this morning, he now only had a total of 5,502 dollars.
It was still far too little for stock trading.
After thinking for a long time, Leon decided to make another trip to the bank.
After all, the original owner had worked for so many years.
No matter what, he should at least have a few hundred or a few thousand dollars in savings, right?
However, when he arrived at the bank, he became dumbfounded again.
“Your current account balance is 30 dollars.”
Seeing the information on the ATM screen, Leon felt his entire body go numb.
Holy crap!
That was way too little!
What exactly had the original owner been doing all these years?
He actually did not save a single cent?
Did this guy spend every day chasing women and nothing else?
What could 30 dollars even do?
It probably could not even buy decent cat litter!
Leon grabbed his hair in collapse, while the whisper of a certain purple-haired witch echoed faintly beside his ears—
“This side recommends that you rob a bank.”
No way…
Did he really have to do that?
Leon slowly raised his head.
At this moment, there were only two or three people handling business inside the bank lobby.
The clerks all lazily leaned against the counters, looking bored out of their minds.
If he really wanted to make a move, it actually was not impossible.
Perhaps he should first—
Just as Leon’s brain was rapidly spinning, the bank’s front doors were suddenly kicked open.
A group of masked people swaggered into the lobby.
A man wearing a SpongeBob mask walked at the very front.
While walking, he pushed a shopping cart commonly seen in supermarkets and laughed arrogantly:
“Ladies and gentlemen, good morning.
We’re here for a big shopping spree!”
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
In the next moment, another man wearing a Patrick Star mask raised a pistol and fired several shots into the ceiling before roaring sternly:
“Nobody move!
Everyone get down on the floor!”
