Alright ~ I need to calm down, Li Jie said to himself. After all, he was only the lowest-level hero. There was still a long way to go before he could become a real superhero. It was not an easy path to go from E-level to A-level and then to S-level superheroes.
S-level superheroes were not Li Jie's goal. Even A-level heroes were not Li Jie's goal. This was because Li Jie knew that he would have to pay a lot to become such a superhero. As a person who had lived two lives, Li Jie's goal was to live a peaceful life and be able to protect himself. Therefore, he set a very low goal for himself. As long as he could reach the level of a B-level hero, he would be able to protect himself and his family. Not to mention that Li Jie had no ambition, in Li Jie's heart, family was always the most important.
When Li Jie checked his new ability, he found an inconspicuous star-shaped mark on his left forearm. Li Jie remembered that he seemed to have a growth-type hero suit. According to the memory transmitted by the system, it should be stored in this small star-shaped mark.
According to the method taught by the system, Li Jie injected some energy into the mark. Li Jie had originally expected this so-called growth-type hero suit to appear directly in his hands, but Li Jie had obviously underestimated the level of black technology of the hero system. In less than a tenth of a second, Li Jie felt his vision blur, and his appearance had changed drastically!
Li Jie looked at himself in the mirror. He was wearing a gray long shirt. The hem of the shirt reached his buttocks and a pair of gray pants. There was a wide black belt around his waist. The belt protected his entire waist, but it did not make Li Jie feel that his movements were stiff. Instead, he felt that his waist had better support and protection. The most satisfactory thing was that there was a hood on this suit. After putting the hood on, Li Jie's face under the hood could not be seen clearly.
[Heroes have their own lives. The basic hero suit has some defensive abilities and psychedelic abilities. It can help the hero hide himself when he does not want to reveal his identity.] This was the system's introduction to the Hero Equipment Set.
This hallucinogenic ability was very important to Li Jie. He didn't want his peaceful life to be easily disturbed by others.
Because Li Jie's rating had already reached the standard of an E-class hero, the system had also issued a few quests.
New Hero Daily Mission: 1. Obtain 100 Reputation Points (0) [Reputation is the cornerstone of a Hero's growth. The higher the Reputation, the faster the growth.]
2. Prevent ten crimes from happening. [Heroes are supposed to help the weak. It's time for you to wear your red underwear on the outside! Preventing a crime will earn you Reputation.]
3. Prevented three serious crimes. (Completed 0) [A crime! A vicious crime! Murder, sexual assault, child abduction! Please stop these crimes from happening! You can obtain a lot of reputation points!]
Reward for completing the Novice Hero Daily Mission: One E-class Hero Training Card, one random E-class item.
It seemed that if he wanted to become stronger, he would have to complete the quest given by the system, Li Jie thought to himself.
"Jie (Jason's nickname), you're finally awake! Come down and eat, or your mother will be angry. "Li Jie's father, Engel Li, pushed open the door of Jason's room and prepared to call Li Jie for lunch. Engel Li was a middle-aged man with a scholarly appearance. He was also Li Jie's father. According to family tradition, Mr. Engel Li also had a Chinese name, Li En.
Li En and his wife, Carrie Li, were Li Jie's parents in this life. Both husband and wife worked in a bank in Queens, New York. Li Jie also had a grandfather named Li Rong. His grandfather was 65 years old and didn't have an English name. His grandfather, Li Rong, opened a restaurant called Mr. Li in Chinatown, Manhattan.
It could be said that Li Jie's family was a standard American middle-class family, and they could be considered relatively wealthy. After various expenses, they could save at least tens of thousands of dollars a year. This could be said to be very difficult in the United States. Most Americans spent how much they earned all year round.
"Jie, I'm glad you're finally awake. Otherwise, I'm afraid we would have to wait until dinner to wake you up." Li Jie's mother, Carrie Li, was a little unhappy that Li Jie slept in, although she didn't know that Li Jie actually didn't sleep in. Carrie Li's original name was Carrie Gardot. She was a descendant of British immigrants. She had beautiful long blonde hair and beautiful green eyes.
"Honey, he just had his seventeenth birthday yesterday. Maybe he was a little excited and couldn't sleep. " Li En exonerated his son and took the opportunity to walk behind Jasley, hug her, and kiss his wife from the side.
"Oh, please! Can you not do this in front of me! " Although it had happened many times, Li Jie was still not used to his parents being affectionate in front of him. Mrs. Carrie saw Li Jie's embarrassment, so she gently patted her husband Li En's cheek with her palm, telling him to be careful in front of the child.
Being interrupted with his wife made Li En feel very unhappy. He, who had just helped Li Jie, instantly began to mock Li Jie, "Hey, boy, you're just jealous that I have such a beautiful wife! If you're jealous, hurry up and find a girlfriend! That way, you won't be so jealous! "
"Okay, okay, I'll go to the restaurant. You guys do whatever you want." Every time this topic came up, Li Jie could only retreat in defeat. However, his father, Li En, was obviously not ready to let him go. "From today onwards, you're seventeen years old, boy! Hurry up and get a girlfriend. Don't graduate from high school without even having a relationship. That's too shameful! "Mrs. Carrie patted Li En's back, signaling him to shut up.
During lunch, Li En finally stopped talking to Li Jie about getting a girlfriend, which made Li Jie breathe a sigh of relief. In his previous life on Earth, what he was most afraid of was being forced to marry by his elders. Every time, he would be under a lot of pressure. In this life, when he came to this world of superheroes, his heart was even more heavy. He had no intention of getting a girlfriend at all. So he was still afraid to talk about this embarrassing problem.
Only the family of three ate lunch. Li Jie's grandfather, Li Rong, went to the restaurant in Chinatown early in the morning to prepare for business. Usually, he would not return home for dinner until eight o 'clock in the evening.
The afternoon was more leisurely. The homework in high school in the United States was not very heavy. Yesterday, Li Jie had finished all his homework. It was a Sunday afternoon, and the whole family was playing in their backyard. He played a few games of chess with his mother, Carrie, and went to the garage with his father, Li En, to do some carpentry work. He reinforced and painted the fence in the backyard. The afternoon passed quickly.
"Mom, I'm going out for a while tonight. I don't have to prepare my dinner." Li Jie thought that he had to find time to complete his mission, and the crime rate in New York was the highest at night. "Well, if you're going to find Peter Parker to play, you have to be back before eleven o 'clock. If you're going to stay at Peter's house for the night, you have to ask Aunt May to call me in advance. "Mrs. Carrie liked the two good friends that Li Jie had made. Harry and Peter were both outstanding and smart young men. They both had a bright future. Mrs. Carrie was also very happy for Li Jie to have more contact with them.
"Well, actually, I'm not going to Peter's house." Li Jie felt that it was better not to tell such a lie because it would be too easy to be seen through. "Then where are we going?" Mrs. Carrie asked. "It's actually a date. Just a date." Li Jie said this lie a little unnaturally. Mrs. Carrie raised her eyebrows and stared at her son with a puzzled look for a while. Then, she exchanged a look with her husband.
"Well, okay, Jay, then you have to be back before twelve o 'clock. And you have to promise me that you're not going to spend the night outside again! "Mrs. Carrie said to Li Jie. "Don't worry, Mom. I'll be home before twelve." Li Jie immediately promised his mother.
"Hey, son! Do you want a car? "His father, Li En, stopped Li Jie and waved a bunch of keys in his hand. It was the key to the Dodge SUV that Li En had bought this year. "Oh, no, thank you, Dad. My old Ford is actually pretty good." Li Jie rejected his father's good intentions because his father really thought he was going on a date.
"Okay, son. Be careful." His father's words were spoken with a double meaning. As someone who understood his father's personality very well, Li Jie naturally understood what his father meant by be safe. He almost slipped. "And remember, don't go to the Fifth Street or the Sixth Street. It's not safe there." Li En finally reminded Li Jie.
"Got it, Dad!" Li Jie responded and then went to the garage to drive his second-hand Ford. In the United States, one could get a driver's license at the age of sixteen. This second-hand Ford was a birthday gift from his family to Li Jie when he was sixteen last year.
Cars in the United States weren't expensive, especially second-hand ones. This Ford only cost 4500 USD. Although it was second-hand, it was well maintained. And because it fit well, it was easier to drive than many new cars.
Li Jie's home was on the Fifteenth Street in Queens, New York. The Fifteenth Street was a middle-class residential area. This was the so-called wealthy district, where the public security and environment were good. And the Fifth Street and Sixth Street that his father warned him not to go were the more chaotic areas in Queens. There were more low-income and unemployed people, and the security was not good.
