Birth of a Goddess [Comprehensive English and American]
Chapter 10 Towards the Land of Dreams
New York State, JFK-Kennedy Airport, a girl with blond hair was carrying a simple backpack, and hurried forward against the flow of people.
Elisa walked out of the terminal building and politely waved away a man who came up to talk to him with a small sign, but he was not discouraged and promoted "cheaper taxis".At this time, a yellow taxi came by not far away. Eliza flagged the taxi and quickly got in. The exhaust fumes from the car threw the man and his basketful of nonsense to the side of the road.
The taxi driver was a middle-aged man. Although there were no customers, he still had a bright smile on his face. Before he got close to Elisa, he found the man standing beside him who was selling.When he was leaving, he deliberately accelerated his speed. Seeing the helpless look of the man on the side of the road with the help of the rearview mirror, he whistled happily.
Elisa told the uncle the driver where she was going. The uncle nodded with a smile, stepped on the accelerator, and the steering wheel flew up. After a while, the taxi squeezed into the huge convoy.
"Hey, girl, where are you from?" The taxi driver's uncle had a thick black beard around his mouth, which covered his lips, but it couldn't hide his happy atmosphere. He smiled and asked enthusiastically, as if he didn't think it would be so abrupt to say this to a girl whom he met for the first time.
Eliza didn't care. To become a taxi driver in New York, you must get a taxi license. It is a license issued by the management department to operate taxis in New York City. It means that they can legally and reasonably obtain income by driving taxis.This is an investment with good returns, so many drivers in New York will borrow money to buy a taxi license. At the craziest time of these years, a taxi license once rose to a high price of 22 US dollars.
The high cost of taxi licenses and the registration management of the New York Taxi Workers Association have made the yellow car the first choice for many tourists who come to New York for the first time.
Elisa looked at the uncle's smiling face, "I just came back from Philadelphia."
Unexpectedly, the uncle driver immediately became excited. He glanced at Elisa several times through the rearview mirror, and asked suddenly, "Girl, did you come back from the Voice of America election in Philadelphia?"
Eliza stared wide-eyed in surprise, the uncle driver saw her expression, the lips under the black beard immediately curled up, and he showed his slightly yellowed teeth with a little pride, " These few days happen to be the last few days of the Voice of America audition, and I have always received contestants to participate in the audition at this time in the past few years."
"Then why do you guess that I'm also going to participate in the audition?" Eliza suddenly became interested, and asked casually, "I might also be doing other things?"
Faced with Elisa's question, the bearded driver showed a hearty smile, "Girl, you passed the Voice of America audition, right?" Seeing the surprised expression on Elisa's face, he added , "You all have the same look on your face."
With some recklessness, and ignorant longing for the future.
And this girl has something different between her eyebrows and eyes.
Nervous, flustered.
With some hopeless desperation.

Peter Parker walked through the small garden in front of the house, but when he approached the door, he stopped abruptly. His extraordinary hearing allowed him to clearly hear the laughter coming from the house even through a wall.
It was Aunt May's voice, and...
There was some joy in Peter's blue eyes that he didn't even notice. He took out the key and opened the door, and the smile of the blond girl suddenly broke into his sight.
The black-haired woman sitting next to the blond girl smiled softly, her gaze fell on the girl's cheek.
The moment the blond girl heard the movement and turned her head, Peter felt his heart skip a beat.
He managed to maintain his calm and self-possession, walked into the room, moved slowly to the stool beside the sofa and sat down, but Aunt Mei pushed him to Eliza's side with a smile.
The faint fragrance of the girl next to him kept coming from the nostrils. Peter moved his shoulders slightly uncomfortably, spread his legs apart, and held his hands tightly.
"Peter." He suddenly heard his name, and subconsciously responded, and when he looked up, he saw Eliza's smiling eyes, "I passed the audition for The Voice of America, and you are willing to be my partner in the blind audition?" Are your friends here?"
"Congratulations..." Peter spit out the words of blessing without thinking, and then the second half of Eliza's words suddenly jumped into his mind.
Seeing the astonishment in those blue eyes, Eliza smiled and stretched out her hand, "How is it, Peter?"
"I..." Peter looked at the hand in front of him, and suddenly felt that the corners of his eyes were a little dry.
Although he had a special ability because of that accident, he put on a shell at night and became a good resident of Queens, New York, but once the dawn dawned, he would be beaten back to that obedient nerdy student in an instant, The only one who can be regarded as his friend is probably Ned, who was excluded in school like him.
Only now, maybe there is one more.
Peter met the light in Eliza's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled into an undetectable arc.He put his hand on Eliza's palm and nodded vigorously.

Philadelphia is the last stop of Voice of America's national audition. Soon after the Philadelphia audition, the lucky contestants who passed the audition will go to the final recording location.
On that stage, some people's dreams may come true, but it will also become the place where the dreams of most players are broken.
Only now, they are still rushing towards the recording site from all over the country full of hope.
The master driver opened the trunk for them and dragged out two huge suitcases from inside.Peter and Elisa immediately rushed to pick up the suitcase, Christo was empty-handed, and smiled helplessly to accept the kindness of the two children.
Elisa's room was uniformly arranged by the program team in a hotel not far from the shooting location, and all expenses for accommodation and daily meals during the filming were borne by the program team.However, during the few days of blind selection and recording of the program, the family and friends who came to accompany them did not enjoy this benefit of the program group.
Under the condition that Christopher and Peter reached an agreement, Elisa could only compromise in the end, and decided to check in the hotel arranged by the program group first, and then go to the hotel they booked themselves.
Announcing her name in front of the counter in the hotel lobby, Elisa looked at the front desk clerk with short gray hair and found her information on the computer, "1246." When the female receptionist handed the room card to Elisa, There was a light swipe on Eliza's open palm, but when Elisa raised her head to look at her, she had calmly turned her gaze back to the computer screen.
Is she overthinking it?
When Elisa moved away suspiciously, behind her, Peter's eyes fell on the front desk clerk like a knife. The girl with short smoke gray hair raised her head to meet Peter's sharp eyes, and slowly licked the little pink tongue. There was a faint smile on his upper lip, his lower jaw was raised slightly, and there was a provocative look in his eyes.
Peter followed in the footsteps of Elisa and Christo, until he lost sight of the female receptionist, and then looked away, with drooping eyelids and dim eyes.
The three of them took the elevator up to the fourth floor, followed the obvious LED signs on the wall, and soon came to room 1246.Elisa held the room card and placed it in front of the sensor. With a beep, Eliza held the doorknob, turned it lightly, and opened the door easily with a little force.
This is an extremely simple business-style single room. A single bed more than one meter wide is neatly placed in the room, covered with a pure white duvet.There is a simple square cabinet beside the bed, and linen curtains are hung in front of the window to add warmth to the cold room.
Eliza leaned her suitcase against the head of the bed, and took Peter and Christo out of the room.
While they were waiting for the elevator, several people walked along the corridor.The young woman's long, smooth, golden-brown hair was draped over her shoulders, and she was holding the arm of a middle-aged woman with a face similar to hers, while the middle-aged man walking beside them had a serious face, but it was not difficult to see that he and The faint resemblance between the eyebrows and eyes of the young woman.
Just at this moment, the number on the display screen jumped, and with a "ding dong", the elevator door slowly opened in front of them.
The elevator room wasn't too small, but when six people entered together, the whole space seemed full.In the silence, the time for the elevator to descend seemed to be lengthened. In the end, the girl with golden brown hair was the first to break the silence, "Hi, I'm Veraflower, and you are also here to participate in the seventh season of The Voice of America. Was it recorded?"
"Yes." Facing the girl who took the initiative to release kindness, Elisa nodded with a smile.
Although they both know each other in their hearts, no matter how good their relationship is, if they finally stand in the ring, they will not relax in the slightest.But in the game, turning yourself into an island is the most unwise behavior.If the relationship with some players is only cold, the audience may not care, and sometimes it will become a proof of the player's "personality" and attract a group of fans; The evaluation of players will also be biased.
Of course Elisa was not prepared to take such a risk, she took the initiative to take the bait, "We are from New York State, this is my friend and mother." Following Elisa's gesture, Peter and Christo nodded to the family respectively to express his greetings.
The two walked out of the elevator door talking and laughing in low voices. By the time they reached the hotel door, Vera had already held Eliza's hand.
Behind Eliza, a line of sight watched her closely until her figure disappeared at the door.
A faint murmur sank into the air, "Charles..."

Note: Uber was only established in 2009, and traditional taxis appear here.
PS: Tao Tao really couldn’t find the exact location of Peter’s house, so here is the default from JFK-Kennedy Airport to Elisa’s house, it’s more convenient to take a taxi than to take the subway.
