However, on this day, Li Du, Hans, and Godzilla were on their way to check out the area of old houses that would be their next auction
Their truck cruised along the road, which was partly sealed off for the Independence Day parade
Hans took a sip of the beer and commented, ”Don’t the papers always say there’s an economic crisis in America? Why does everyone still have the mood to celebrate all this sht?”
Li Du, startled by Hans’s comment, looked at him in disbelief ”Woah, buddy, you are an Aton and Father Lincoln are going to be very upset with you”
Hans shrugged ”The one I like is Franklin”
He pulled out a green hundred-dollar bill, and kissed it two times
Godzilla made a sstaff city They went toward the north-east direction, cruising along the highway to Carpenter Town If they continued driving along the highway, they would reach Las Vegas
The sst the desert There was natural greenery all over the place It was full of trees, along with beautiful, flowing streams of water
All they could see for their journey was the yellow desert sand; the sudden sight of greenery was definitely refreshi+ng They saw a patch of grassland where a ss played on the field
”So, we are entering Carpenter Town, right?” Li Du asked, looking at the scenic view outside
”Yup,” Hans replied ”On this highway, the reenery, you know you’ve reached Carpenter Town”
”‘Carpenter’ sounds familiar to me—not sure where I’ve heard it This ht?” Li Du casually remarked
This time, it was Hans’s turn to look at Li Du with disbelief ”You don’t know the Carpenters? The Carpenter siblings are really falanced at him with an aard ss”
”‘Yesterday Once More,’ ‘Top of the World,’ ‘Please Mr Posts?” Hans’s face was still filled with shock
Li Du surrendered with his hands up ”Okay, I’ve heard about them It’s just that my memory sucks”

”Cut it out!”

However, Hans strongly recommended Li to chill out at the spa resort
”Buddy, you have been looking lethargic these past few days This means that you are stressed out, o to the spa—it’s a MUST”
Li Du, however, was skeptical ”Don’t tell me there’s some unusual activity in there?”
