"Detached" is finished, and Lan Li feels a little empty.
Every time before, it was always painful for lanli. It was like returning from a dream to reality. At the beginning, when the shooting of "crazy love" was over, he was seriously ill. It was like a cold. The illness itself was not too serious. His nose was runny, his head was hot, he coughed and had a fever. After all the minor problems were cured, his body was still very heavy. His head was dizzy, and he pulled out the fatigue and soreness hidden in his muscles and blood bit by bit, To really heal.
But this time, it's different. The whole person has a sense of emptiness, but that's all. My heart is empty. It's like I've been studying hard for the whole semester and I've been looking forward to the summer vacation. But when the summer vacation really comes, I leave my friends, school and heavy schoolwork, and suddenly relax. On the contrary, I don't adapt to it. It's not sad, it's not painful, and it's not reluctant to give up. It's just that when I say goodbye, I inevitably feel a little lost.
Looking back on the past two months, I have been reading the script, preparing for the performance and getting into the state with a fixed schedule every day. Over time, it has become a part of my life. Every day is hard, but also full; There was also the experience of experiencing life in the Bronx before. It was a very hard time. It was like walking on a wire rope, but it was a very precious time. It became not only a part of Henry Barthes, but also a part of him.
All of a sudden, Lan Li was lost when he stood in the same place.
The children, led by Sammy and Betty, have flocked to take pictures, sign autographs and hug with lanli. Except Sammy, other children may never appear on the movie screen. This is the only screen experience in their life and the only special summer vacation. They all hope to leave memories.
However, it is not known whether this hot summer can change their life trajectory.
After that, even many staff members came up and took pictures with Lan Li, trying to record this hard, painful and happy shooting experience. No one knows what kind of achievements "detached" will achieve after its release, or even whether "detached" will be released smoothly, but they know that this shooting experience has become a part of their life.
After the dissolution of the cast, Langley did not leave immediately, but walked slowly along the streets of the Bronx, feeling the chaos and depression of this dilapidated area; Think back to the group of children in Mount Sinai Hospital, even if they were sentenced to death, they still lived tirelessly, like indomitable weeds.
Life is fair, everyone is facing their own difficulties and suffering, and everyone is choosing their own way to deal with it, so they go to their own end, step by step. Every step on the road is their own, and the end is also their own choice, not for the bright, but for the worthy.
This is true of the residents of the Bronx, the children of Mount Sinai Hospital, and so is Langley. Lan Li closed his palm and felt the courage of pressing the palm with his fingertips. He was firm as never before.
I left the Bronx, took the subway back to Manhattan, walked through the unfamiliar and familiar steel forest, trying to find my apartment. As a result, he once again forgot the name of the street where he lived. To be honest, he has moved to a new apartment for nearly a year, but he has lived in it for less than three months. It seems that he is not as familiar as the hotel.
Lan Li had some regrets. He had already told Nathan to send him back. After thinking about it, I took out my cell phone and dialed a phone number.
"You should know that we can't believe all the words of the client. If he tells a lie, it will make us very passive in the court, which is also the purpose of our own investigation. The so-called investigation is not to let you simply repeat the words of the client! "
Charlotte Kelly lowered her head and did not dare to look up at all. Her hands were nervously crossed and held tightly, even her toes, which were hidden in high heels and wrapped in silk stockings, were curled up. There was no obvious anger or responsibility, but the indifference between the lines was filled with a sharp thunder, which made her even have no courage to look up at each other.
The usual Matthew Dunlop is always polite and alienated, iceberg temperament, some strangers do not enter the routine, but there is no offensive. Although the staff in the law firm are awed by him, they are not afraid. On the contrary, many female staff like him and discuss his every move secretly.
Charlotte is no exception.
However, Charlotte did not expect that Matthew was meticulous in his work. He was not only rigorous, but also serious, and even severe. In his calm words, there was a violent storm, which made people feel very small. He could only shiver, and even the courage to resist disappeared.
Charlotte felt that she was about to suffocate. She could not even feel that there were other people in the office. The whole space was silent. She couldn't feel the end at all.
The door of the office was pushed open, and a figure came in cautiously. Matthew's words suddenly stopped, but the cold low pressure didn't ease. Instead, it poured down like a dark cloud. The person at the door became frightened, but he still said, "Matthew, inside line."
Matthew still didn't speak. The other party gritted his teeth and finished his whole speech. "It's Mr. hall."
Silence, or silence, when the assistant at the door was almost ready to give up, he heard Matthew's voice coming from the cold, "come in."
"All right." The assistant backed out. Charlotte only felt the pain of her neck, even her shoulders were stiff, almost unconscious, but she did not dare to move, for fear that a little bit of movement would make Matthew's calm volcano erupt completely.
Matthew picked up the phone from the conference table, pulled the line, went to the glass wall and said, "this is Matthew Dunlop."
"Hey, Charles." The familiar voice from the other end of the phone made Matthew's mouth slightly twitch, "Er, do you remember which street my house is on? I'm a little bit unsure now. "
Matthew closed his eyes and breathed quietly. "I'll send the address to your phone. Is your work over today? "
"Yes, it's just over. After staying in the Bronx for a long time, I suddenly came back to Manhattan. It's really strange. I don't know this city. I've been to the slums of Rio, but it's another country, another piece of land. Now I'm in New York, but I seem to have come to two different worlds. It's really strange. So, I think I'm a little lost. "
Matthew was dumbfounded, and the corner of his mouth rose slightly. "Are you sure it's not because there's no sense of direction?" After I make complaints about it, Matthew realizes the meeting behind him. "Do you need me to call a taxi for you?" I can tell him the address in advance and take you back directly. "
"No, No. I'm going to walk back. I came out of the subway station. If I remember correctly, it's only three blocks, right? "
Ma XiuXiu is ready to say: the premise is to choose the right direction. Otherwise, if it goes against the right direction, it may go directly to the statue of liberty. But Lan Li said "goodbye" with indifference, and then hung up. This made Matthew smile again. At the same time, he put the receiver back, stood in the same place, thought about it seriously, turned around, and then found that everyone in the meeting room, including Charlotte, was looking away uneasily.
Charlotte lowered her head heavily, and quickly hid her eyes. Her amazement, surprise and shock could not be concealed. The sudden ups and downs made her more and more flustered. Praying in his heart, Matthew didn't notice his abnormality.
In contrast, Matthew, as the focus of attention, calmly scanned the conference room. Then he returned to the front of the conference table and sat down again as if nothing had happened. He bowed his head, took out his cell phone that had been turned to mute, sent the Quick Edit of the address to him, and said, "we have to start the investigation again, And then communicate with the customer.... "
The meeting ended faster than expected. After watching Matthew leave the meeting room, Charlotte finally relaxed. Her tight shoulders relaxed. Her colleagues came up and patted Charlotte on the shoulder to show their comfort. Charlotte cheered up and shook her head. She knew that it was all her own fault. Matthew's blame was reasonable. This kind of fault was the tuition that rookies had to pay. Fortunately, Matthew was willing to teach her at least.
"That phone call just now was too timely, otherwise I would feel suffocated." Next to someone whispered, Charlotte can not help but Leng Leng, and then fell into their own thoughts.
Matthew brought his lunch time forward 30 minutes, and he was still worried about lenley after all.
That guy is very smart, no doubt, but his ability to live is terrible. The refrigerator never knows how to fill, the clothes never clean on time, and the sundries never tidy up on time. Matthew believes that it's very likely that lanli can't find his way home, and then he will stay in a roadside coffee shop, or find a supermarket, sit on the ground, read a book, and unconsciously forget the time.
It's not Matthew's wild guess. It's happened before, and more than once.
He still remembers that Edith hall called him for the first time. The polite and cold voice asked about lanli's whereabouts, but the hall family was calm. No one was worried about lanli's whereabouts. If it wasn't for Edith, no one would even notice the loss of lanli. Finally, Matthew found lanli in the cereal section of a Tesco supermarket, while reading "Metamorphosis" with relish.
Back to lanli's apartment, he found the key from the lintel, opened the sliding door and saw the canvas shoes scattered on the ground. Matthew knew that the guy had finally found his way back. Is it because Manhattan is smaller?
