The Hundred Thousand Club was tempting to the two of them, but they could not return immediately. It was not easy to come to Tucson, so they had to stay.
However, Hans was very proud of himself. He called the Phoenix branch of the American Association of Warehouse Hunters in Tucson and said that they would go to the club in a day or two to complete the membership procedures.
Li Du warned him, "Keep a low profile, buddy. Keep a low profile and do things with a high profile. This is the absolute truth."
Hans said proudly, "I'm keeping a low profile, my brother. No need to say more. Let's have fun. I'll pay for all your expenses in Tucson!"
Tucson was located in the Sonoran Desert, surrounded by undulating sand dunes and clusters of cacti.
When Li Du came here, he was worried that the photos would not sell for a good price, so he did not observe the city carefully. Now that he was relaxed, he was curious about Tucson.
After coming to the United States, the two big cities he had seen were Phoenix and Tucson. The former was large and vast, and the latter had a kind of undisciplined coolness.
This was not what he had said, but what Hans had told him. He said that Tucson was a cool city. As for what was cool? Li Du could not tell.
Whether Tucson was cool or not, the land was arid, but it was prosperous and rich, completely different from the lack of resources.
As they drove around the streets, Li Du found that there were all kinds of shops, fashionable restaurants, bars, and a lot of Mexican people.
Of course, this was easy to understand. Arizona and Mexico bordered, and Tucson was located in the southern part of the state. It was one of the few big cities closest to Mexico, so naturally there were many Mexican people.
They first had to find accommodation. Hans led the way to a theme hotel, which was located in Cactus National Park, surrounded by the sky and the beautiful environment.
After entering the hotel, Li Du was surprised. The roof and walls of their room were transparent, so they could see all kinds of cacti even from inside the room.
"It's beautiful at night. It's very suitable for watching the stars," Hans said with a smile. "I know Li likes the night sky, so I deliberately chose to stay here.
In addition, Godzilla, you will also like it. There is free coffee, waffles, and sausages for breakfast. You can eat as much as you want. "
Godzilla laughed and touched his belly. Li Du observed a moment of silence for the hotel owner.
The reason for choosing this hotel was not only to enjoy the night sky, cacti, and free breakfast, but also because it accepted customers to bring their pets in, but they had to pay an extra 20 yuan.
After seeing Ah Meow, the waiter smiled and said, "This kid will like our hotel, because Elvis Presley used to stay here."
"Elvis? Elvis Presley? "Li Du asked curiously.
The waiter smiled reservedly. "Yes, who else can be called Elvis besides him?"
Ah Meow frowned, then flashed his sharp claws.
Elvis Presley was an American superstar of the last century. He pushed rock and roll to the world by himself. He and John Lennon were both people who changed the landscape of American music. Unfortunately, both of them died a violent death.
By the time they finished packing, it was already sunset. The three of them went out to look for food.
Hans was still driving and leading the way. He said, "If you want to eat good food in Tucson, you have to go to 4th-Ave. I'll take you to eat the presidential dishes."
The restaurant they went to was called 'My Little Nest.' Bill Clinton had once eaten here, and the presidential dishes were famous because of him.
In fact, the dish was a mess. It was a lot of tacos, tortillas, burritos, and chili sauce tacos mixed together with a layer of cheese.
Li Du lost interest after seeing it and changed it to a Sonoran hot dog.
This was Tucson's signature delicacy, also known as the 'Absolute Hot Dog.' It was a hot dog wrapped in bacon, layered with tomato salsa, beans, cheese, mayonnaise, mustard, chopped tomatoes, and onions.
In addition, they ordered spicy cactus, hand-shredded spicy beef, creole with spicy smoked sausage, cast iron pot roast eggs, rustic fried chicken, dried beef tenderloin, and so on.
Because of Godzilla, Li Du could taste these delicacies one by one. He could order whatever he wanted. Godzilla would eat it anyway, so it would not be wasted.
He ate quickly and then ordered a Scotch whiskey ice cream. He slowly tasted the delicious dessert and enjoyed the leisurely night.
However, after dinner, time was no longer as leisurely as before.
Hans paid the bill and Li Du went out first. However, as soon as he stood on the street, two Mexican teenagers suddenly pushed him into the shadows.
One of the teenagers took out a dagger and put it against his chest. The other said fiercely, "Yellow man, pay up, or else …"
Godzilla followed closely behind. When he saw this scene, he kicked one of the young men and sent him flying.
The teenager with the dagger was frightened. He waved his hand subconsciously and the dagger went straight for Li Du's neck.
In a flash, Li Du slowed down the passage of time, grabbed the teenager's dagger, and lifted his foot to kick the teenager's crotch.
The teenager screamed and fell to the ground, holding his crotch. Seeing this, more Mexicans surrounded them.
Godzilla grimaced and reached for the roadside railing. He swung his hand hard and pulled down the iron railing. At the same time, he said coldly in Spanish, "If you come up, I'll break your bones!"
He was also Mexican, and the people who were about to surround them gradually dispersed.
After Hans came out and asked what was going on, he quickly left with Li Du.
Li Du said, "Why is the security here so bad?"
Hans said, "Tucson used to be the base camp of the Rat Gang. Although you have an ocelot with you, it is still difficult to deal with them."
In fact, not only Tucson, but all major cities in the United States had poor security at night, but Tucson was especially bad because there were too many Mexicans here, accounting for 35% of the permanent population.
The next day, they toured the nearby Cactus National Park and went to the mini time machine museum.
There was a sign at the entrance of the museum that said, "Don't meddle with dinosaurs, because you are very crispy and delicious after being seasoned."
Entering the museum, they saw dinosaurs, but as the name suggested, they were all miniature dinosaurs. Some were fierce and domineering, some were cute, and they had a variety of styles.
Some of them were robotic dinosaurs, which attacked and chased each other, simulating dinosaur predation.
Ah Meow saw this and became interested. It opened the backpack with its claws, jumped out, and rushed toward a Tyrannosaurus Rex, and threw it to the ground!
"Sh * t!" Hans cursed and quickly came up to catch the cat.
Before the management came, they took Ah Meow and left. Ah Meow was not willing to give up. He meowed and waved his claws at the dinosaurs on the ground, which was very domineering!
Since they could not visit the museum, they simply returned. After another night's sleep, they drove to Phoenix to prepare to join the Hundred Thousand Club.
