Chapter 855 The "New" Home Built in 1964
After watching the live TV broadcast of Iron Man's real body exposure in the backcountry of Shackford, Luke and Selena both said goodbye to their families.
Together, the two and their dog hitched a ride with Ferreira, the ranch vet, to Dallas and then a flight to New York.
From LaGuardia Airport in Queens, the two picked up random gold nuggets, took a taxi, and arrived at their new home in Clinton, New York, within half an hour.
Standing in front of this new home, Selena was a little confused and murmured, "Is this the surprise you said?"
Luke laughed and gave her a hug to appease: "See? Five floors. Except for the first floor, you can choose the other four floors. Of course, if you like it, you can choose two floors and sleep once a month. Row."
Selena rolled her eyes: "I only change rooms every two weeks when I'm sick."
The two of them were not in a hurry to go in, but looked around the five-story building.
This small building was Luke's carefully selected residence, and he even analyzed it from the information provided by Big Daddy Damon.
To say it is small is relative to tall buildings.
In fact, it was used as a place for a processing room a long time ago, not an apartment building with many rooms, so each floor is spacious and unobstructed.
The five floors add up to a usable area of more than 1,500 square meters, not including the basement and rooftop.
Luke also took a fancy to this, and spent a lot of money to win this small building with debt disputes.
Although the small bungalow in Los Angeles is very good, the place is really too small, and he finally had to secretly build an illegal basement by himself.
Now that I am in New York, my new home is naturally spacious.
However, he still had to get some illegal construction in the new home.
Buildings in places like Manhattan, New York, are not legally allowed to be remodeled at will. The owner must go to the relevant department for recordation and registration, and can only start construction after obtaining a permit.
However, no one in the Clinton District should come to investigate illegal construction.
The main body of the small building is an old-fashioned brick wall with a hint of red in the mottled, and a large but rusted yellow and black iron window frame.
Selena couldn't help but tut her tongue on the side: "Our new home,
It's really "new", it was built a hundred years ago, right? "
The corner of Luke's mouth twitched: "I'm sorry, according to records, its history is not that long, and it has only been built for sixty-four years, so it is not an ancient building."
Selena's face twitched a little: "It's older than my grandma."
Luke:……
Selena's mother, Sandra, gave birth to her when she was sixteen, and her grandmother gave birth to Sandra when she was seventeen. She is indeed not as old as this building.
"However, I like it quite a bit." Selena changed her words: "This kind of appearance has the LOFT style you said, is it the same inside?"
Luke chuckled: "You'll find out later."
Selena didn't care, and continued to express her opinion: "It's the surrounding environment, doesn't it seem to be good?"
Luke: "I dare to say that the law and order in the Clinton district is good. There are not many places in New York with bad law and order."
Selena's eyes lit up: "Then we can't...hehe."
Luke and her looked at each other and laughed lightly, tacitly understanding each other.
At this moment, the two and one dog have also walked around, returned to the front door, and opened the door.
Looking at the situation in the small building, Selena was shocked again: "WTH!"
The gold nugget also opened his mouth wide, his chin almost smashed to the ground, and his heart was full of despair: No! Don't live in this haunted house!
In the small building, most of the place is empty, but all kinds of fine debris are scattered, covered with thick dust, and the corners are densely covered with cobwebs. With the cloudy days that are common in New York, it feels gloomy and shabby.
It's no exaggeration for the gold nugget to say that this is a haunted house.
This is a bit similar to the factory haunted house in the horror movie, at least it is completely qualified in the two points of shabby and eerie.
Luke patted Selena's shoulder, and then patted the dog's head beside him: "There is no cleaning company and home improvement company to provide door-to-door service here, and the place we live will definitely not be able to be settled, so we can only do it ourselves."
Selena and Gold Nugget understood in seconds.
As far as the small bungalow in Los Angeles, Luke has made a lot of new equipment and defense methods, which are completely different concepts from the earliest ones.
If it is installed according to that specification, even if it is brand new, it will become a garbage dump.
Thinking of this, one person and one dog put away their surprised expressions, and continued to follow Luke to check the condition of the building.
After more than 20 minutes, when the fifth floor was finished, Luke nodded with satisfaction: "There is nothing wrong with the main body, and there is not much garbage in it, so we can save a lot of trouble. Go to lunch first, then get the tools and materials, and then come back start."
The two and one dog didn't need to find a car. They quickly walked across a few paths and arrived in more than ten minutes... Shake Shack is in the store in Times Square.
Since the peak lunch queuing time had passed, the two of them lined up for about 20 minutes before they each walked out of the fast-food restaurant with a large bag of loot, surrounded by clerks and customers.
No matter how delicious Shake shack is, few people buy hundreds of hamburgers and a lot of desserts and fries at one time.
The two ordered separately, and they pretended not to know each other when they took the food, otherwise they would be surrounded by more people.
More than 200 hamburgers are enough for the clerks of an ordinary large company to have dinner together.
When they went out, the gold nuggets were scurrying around the legs of the two of them, and their noses did not forget the madness.
Its dog nose smelled the fragrance, and it was easy to tell that this was definitely not the kind of pig fast food, and the taste was worthy of a battle with I N OUT.
And these things are full of flavor, the meat patties will definitely be full of juice, and the desserts can be so sweet that it turns its tail.
As a carnivore with a severe sweet tooth, it is extremely satisfied with these flavors.
Luke ignored the dog head.
Because as soon as he took care of it, the guy knew he didn't object.
And he didn't object, a certain dog's head was about to open his mouth and eat.
This is on the street, and he doesn't want people to watch how a dog eats dozens of pounds of food in one go.
Others don't know, they think he is abusing the dog.
Don't think it's a joke.
It is not uncommon in the United States to allow pets to overeat, make them obese, and then be fined by judges.
Still Selena's favorite dog head, watching Luke in front of him without looking back, he knew what he meant.
After secretly feeding Gold Nuggets two hamburgers and a milkshake, she stopped and whispered, "That's it for now, you have eaten your share now, and you can only watch us eat it later."
Gold nugget decisively restrained his appetite.
It doesn't want to watch them eat, it's easy to make it feel like a drop.
Picking up a taxi, they went to Central Park not far away, found a slightly secluded corner in the lungs of New York, and finished their lunch quietly.
