"80,000 dollars, I finally got it!”
Looking at the stack of US dollar bills with Benjamin Franklin's face on the old table in his room, the Chinese youth's lips curled into an expectant smile.
The person who spoke was called Qi Yu, a transmigrator.
It had been twenty years since he had transmigrated to this Marvel World.
The current Marvel World timeline was only in 2008. Iron Man had not yet appeared, Captain America was still frozen in the Arctic Ocean, Thor had not been demoted to the mortal world, and the Avengers plan of the black-headed marinated egg director was still in the brewing state.
All in all, the era of superheroes had yet to officially begin.
Therefore, the current Marvel World was not that dangerous.
Thanks to this peaceful era, Qi Yu could be considered to have lived peacefully until now.
Unfortunately, as a transmigrator, his system had not awakened until now, causing his life to be miserable all these years.
Who said that a transmigrator could write a world-shocking masterpiece and earn a lot of money by plagiarizing from another world just based on his impression of the popular novels in his previous life?
Qi Yu said that when he tried his best to recall the plot of " Battle Through the Heavens ", the things he wrote did not have the taste of the original.
He suspected that it was because the Eastern culture was not suitable for Western countries, so he tried to write popular American dramas such as Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, and Broke Sisters. However, he realized that he could not write it!
Alright, his writing skills are too lousy. I'll just carry bricks and earn money!
Without a system cheat, it would be very difficult for a yellow-skinned Chinese to do well in America.
It was not easy to struggle to survive.
The 80,000 dollars on the table was all the money he had accumulated over the years as a low-level Chinese worker.
"With this money, we can make an appointment with Dr. Smith to operate on Hannah!”
Qi Yu was full of anticipation as she put the stack of US dollar bills into her old leather bag and carefully stuffed it into her arms. She decided that she would hug it even when she slept tonight. She could not let any burglar steal it, causing her hard-earned money over the past few years to end up as a cold number in the Manhattan police department's statement.
The Hannah that Qi Yu mentioned was his sister.
Although they were not related by blood, he had always regarded her as his biological sister.
Hannah suffered from congenital heart disease. Her heart vessels developed abnormally during her embryonic period, causing her to suffer from this congenital disease.
It was also because of this disease that Hannah, who was still an infant, was heartlessly abandoned by her parents. She was thrown on a street in New York and coincidentally picked up by a passing teenager, Qi Yu.
Considering that he had no relatives or friends in this world, he was too lonely. Moreover, this little girl was quite beautiful and pleasant, so he brought her home as a member of the family, even though there were only two poor people in this family including him.
The two siblings had relied on each other for seven years.
Seeing Hannah grow up happily day by day, Qi Yu, who was usually depressed, was infected by her and gradually became positive.
Even though the doctor who did the test said that it was very difficult for the little girl to live past the age of five, under Qi Yu's careful care, Hannah had miraculously grown to seven years old.
However, in the future, it would be even more difficult to continue growing up like a healthy and normal person.
Therefore, Qi Yu worked part-time to earn money while living frugally. Now, she finally managed to scrape together 80,000 USD for the surgery.
With this money, his sister Hannah's condition would take a turn for the better. Although there was no money for treatment in the early years, and the longer the time dragged on, the lower the cure rate. Fortunately, congenital heart disease was not a difficult disease to treat. Even if it was delayed for as long as seven years, there was still a 30% cure rate.
30% chance was already quite impressive!
Even if the surgery failed in the end, and the money that she had painstakingly saved over the years went down the drain, Qi Yu would not regret it.
Because this was his responsibility as an elder brother.
After collecting the surgery fees, Qi Yu went to the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous dinner.
There were Mexican chicken rolls, Turkish barbecue, and a twelve-inch pizza that was emitting a warm aroma.
It had been a long time since the siblings had enjoyed such a delicious meal.
When she thought about how Hannah would throw away her pink school bag as soon as she got home and run over to the table with her short legs excitedly, Qi Yu couldn't help but smile.
However…
Qi Yu waited quietly at the dining table for a long time, but her sister did not open the door.
During this period, he called the Little Genius Phone Watch developed by Stark Industries three times, but the phone was not connected.
"Strange, it's already so late. Why isn't Hannah back yet?”
Raising his head to look at the American clock hanging on the wall, Qi Yu frowned. An inexplicable ominous premonition quietly rose in his heart.
Normally, Hannah should have taken the bus home an hour ago.
But tonight, even until now, the dishes had already turned cold, and he still hadn't returned.
Qi Yu's intuition told her that something had happened to Hannah!
For a moment, Qi Yu felt a little regretful, as well as a self-reproach that was difficult to conceal.
Logically speaking, a second-year girl should be accompanied by his guardian to and from school.
However, Qi Yu had been busy working these days to earn money for the surgery as soon as possible, so she really did not have time to pick Hannah up. Hannah was also quite obedient and sensible. After her brother taught her once, she learned to go to school alone.
With strong worry, Qi Yu took the flashlight, locked the door, and walked out quickly.
He was going to look for his lost sister…
