American TV Series: Starting with Sheldon’s Wool Collection

In the middle of the night, there was a series of hurried knocks on the door at Grandma Connie’s house.

When Mike walked out of the room, he saw Grandma Connie in the living room wearing a coat, holding a baseball bat in her hand and preparing to open the door.

The look on her face relaxed a lot when she found Mike coming out.

"Who is outside?" Grandma Connie went behind the door but did not open the door immediately.

In an area like Texas with strong folk customs, it is not a good idea to open the door rashly at night.

"It's me, Connie. We need help." Mary's urgent voice came from outside the door.

Hearing that it was her daughter outside the door, Grandma Connie hid the baseball bat behind her and opened the door.

"What happened? Mary~" Grandma Connie asked with concern, seeing the anxious look on her daughter's face clearly through the light.

"It's Shelly. He hit his head. I heard he bled a lot..." Mary, who received a call from Professor John in the middle of the night, briefly explained the reason, and then couldn't help complaining: "I shouldn't believe John. , he is simply not capable of taking care of Shelly. This is only the first night, and such a bad thing happened..."

Grandma Connie, who gradually understood what happened, also asked worriedly: "Is Shelly's injury serious? Didn't John send him to the hospital?"

"That's why I came to you. I heard that John also broke his leg. So George and I are going to go there overnight..." Mary asked, "Missy and little George are here at home, please help take care of them. .”

"What a terrible news~"

Hearing that Professor John was also injured, Grandma Connie shook her head and said, "Leave it to me here. After you go over, see if John needs help."

Professor John, who had been single for seventy years and had no children, would definitely need someone to take care of him if something like this happened.

At this time, George also started the car and was waiting for his wife at the intersection.

Mary couldn't wait to elaborate, and after promising to take care of Professor John, she turned around and hurriedly got into George's car.

Under the moonlight, the car disappeared into the night.

"God bless! I hope they are all safe~"

Watching the car drive away, Grandma Connie still had a worried look on her face.

"Do you need me to go to Cooper's house with you?" At the door, Mike, who also understood the whole incident, asked.

"No, you go and rest. If you need help, I will come back and call you..." Considering that Mike had a schedule tomorrow, Grandma Connie calmed down and took on the task of taking care of Missy and Missy alone.

"Okay, let me know if you need to." Mike, who was preparing to leave tomorrow, did not force it.

…

The next day, when Mike got up, Grandma Connie was already preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

Although she looked a little tired, she looked relaxed.

"How's it going with Sheldon?" Mike asked.

"It's not a big problem, just a bruise on my forehead." Grandma Connie smiled and continued: "There's nothing wrong with John. I heard that he sprained his ankle when he went to take care of Shelly. Rest for a few days. He should be able to recover by the day.”

Apparently, Mary made a fuss last night because she was too worried about her youngest son.

When she didn't hear Professor John's report clearly, she hurriedly organized a "rescue" operation.

But from a mother's perspective, her behavior is understandable.

"It's fine~" Hearing that the Cooper family and Professor John were fine, Mike felt much more relaxed.

Later, at Grandma Connie’s urging, Mike finished his breakfast and then drove the Dodge pickup truck to get ready to hit the road.

The Cooper family who heard the noise from across the door immediately walked out of the room to see him off.

During the farewell session, Mike saw little Sheldon.

At this moment, his head was wrapped like a rice dumpling, and his face looked a little depressed, but he seemed to be in good spirits.

…

At noon, a Dodge pickup truck stopped at a deserted T-intersection.

There are almost weathered road signs stuck on the roadside...

The arrow above indicates that both branches lead to Minnesota.

One is the road that Mike once walked, and all the way is the desolate Gobi Desert. On the other side is a small road with dense jungle ahead.

After replenishing some water, Mike looked at the scorching sun above his head and immediately chose to take a path.

There’s no other reason than that this trail is cooler.

In Texas at the end of June, the direct outdoor temperature reached over 40 degrees, and the iron car was roasted like a steamer.

"I hope there is a place for people to rest for a while~"

Mike looked toward the side of the road as he drove the vehicle onto the side road.

It's best to have a small hotel where you can rest. If you can't, it's better to go to the jungle and find a shade tree to enjoy the shade.

As long as we get through the hottest part of the day at noon, Mike thinks it's worth even a little detour.

"boom~"

Just as Mike was looking for a suitable place to rest, there was an abnormal sound from the tires.

A flat tire~

Mike controlled the steering wheel and stopped the car without any danger. When he got out of the car to check, the tire on the left side of the car was flat.

"What bad luck!"

Although there was a spare tire, Mike still felt a little uncomfortable when the car was so damaged.

Then when he checked the cause of the car's flat tire, his brows furrowed even more.

A rusty nail…

In addition to the nail, other small metal parts were scattered on the roadside.

There are indications that this place is not simple.

At this moment, two men covered in oil and stains, who looked like beggars, ran out of the jungle on the roadside.

As soon as the two men appeared, they danced towards the pickup truck and roared with unknown meaning.

Under the high temperature, the stench of the two people could be smelled from a distance.

Mike sensed that the opponent was not a friendly person. As the two approached, he kicked the opponent cleanly and knocked the opponent down.

"who are you?"

Mike, who had reason to suspect that the nail on the road was his opponent's masterpiece, used a little more force when he kicked.

However, what is surprising is that after receiving such a heavy blow, the two people rolled around on the ground twice, and then got up one after another as if nothing happened.

Only then did Mike notice that the two men were unusually tall, and the lengths of their hands and feet were also very strange. They were obviously deformed children.

At this time, the roars of the two people who were attacked became sharper, and their bloodshot eyes were like wild beasts, full of desire to attack.

It seemed like the next step was to pounce.

"It's really unlucky, it turned out to be two lunatics~"

The mental state of these two deformed children is obviously unable to communicate with normal people.

Just as Mike was about to drive the two away, a skinny, skeleton-like man carrying a huge tool box appeared on the road and blocked the deformed child.

"Sir, do you want to repair your car?"

The thin man looked at Mike with a flattering expression.

Because he was too thin, this man's cheeks were completely disfigured, and he looked like a walking skeleton.

Of course, the most impressive thing is this person's eyes, which are too big and have no upper eyelids.

His skinny cheeks and bulging eyes made him look like a dehydrated flounder.

Similarly, Mike also noticed that the two deformed children behind the man were also extremely ugly under their sloppy long hair.

The combination of these three people can definitely be called "demon". The kind that can scare people into tears when they come out at night.

"Who are you?" Mike, who observed the three of them carefully, asked the previous question again.

"My name is Big Eye, and these two are my brothers." After Big Eye introduced himself, he continued: "Because car accidents often happen at this corner, so we opened a repair shop there..."

Following the direction of the other person's finger, Mike saw that there was indeed a shed supported by a torn canvas on the other side of the corner.

Further ahead, there is a small wooden building that looks like a hotel.

"How much does it cost to repair a car?" Faced with the thin man's almost humble attitude, Mike asked.

"A tire costs 100 meters. How about it? Do you want to repair it?" His big eyes were raised at the waist, and his posture was still very humble.

"How long will it take to fix it?" Mike continued to ask.

In this damn hot weather, someone offered to help repair the car, and he didn't mind paying a few bucks.

"This car only has one broken tire. I can help you repair it in half an hour..." Big Eyes continued to say earnestly, as if he was afraid that the customer would run away: "It's so hot, and while we are repairing the car, you can just do it..." Let’s go to the little shop over there to rest for a while. The cold beer there is great~”

"Okay, come and call me when the car is repaired." This place is not far from the small shop on the corner, and Mike doesn't have to worry about the other party being careful.

After getting the customer's consent, Big Eyes immediately directed the two deformed children to start repairing the car.

Although these three people look strange, they are very agile in repairing cars.

After watching the situation for a few minutes and making sure that the other party had no chance to make any small moves, Mike walked towards the small shop on the corner.
