Global Movie Emperor

Chapter 454 “Exile” End (Part 1)

“Mr. Leo, considering that you have not engaged in teaching work for a long time, our company feels that you are not suitable for this job. I am sorry and wish you a happy life.”

Turning off the voice recording, he lay on the sofa in a daze. As an unknown oceanographer, and he is unwilling to return to work at sea again, he really has few options for work.

Coupled with his fixed thinking, he eventually chose to engage in oceanographic education, but unfortunately, he had not been engaged in teaching for many years and was declined by many universities, including his alma mater where he stayed and worked after graduation.

He rented an old apartment in the city. Apart from the fact that there will always be young people who are harassing the people, there are no shortcomings, but the savings on his body are not enough for him to spend the rest of his life, so he found a suitable job. It is a top priority.

“Ding Ding Ding…”

The phone rang, rekindling hope in my heart, quickly got up and connected to the phone, and introduced himself to the other party first.

“Hello, this is Rio.”

“Good old Mr. Zhang, I am Raul, the staff member of “Weekend Jerry Show”. I am sorry to call you suddenly. That’s it. Our show admires your courage and tenacity. At the same time, many viewers also hope you To be able to attend and listen to your story at sea, may I ask, are you interested in it?”

Interested? To be honest, it is difficult for him to recall the joy brought by other things besides the happiness brought by the abilities that are not well known.

Sadness and other emotions? There are also, but only in those days when he is not used to island life. After getting used to it, it seems that he has no thoughts, degraded his thinking ability, and all his emotions are far away.

He didn’t want to show his face, standing on the stage for people to watch and discuss, like a so-called miracle of life, or a clown created by others. In fact, only he knew how he came back alive.

He sat on the sofa, in the ashtray on the small table in front of him, there was still a cigarette that had not been extinguished, and he did not immediately give a reply. He reached out and lifted the cigarette **** back into the ashtray.

“I’m sorry, I don’t want to remember those days. For me, those days are really a bit torment. Even if I remember, I feel uncomfortable.”

He can only refuse this way. Only revealing his own trauma is his best way to refuse, but whether the other party gives up depends on his determination, whether he sympathizes with Leo, and whether he will be kind to cover his inner trauma for him. Irrelevant.

“Sir, I know that telling the past is a difficult thing for you, but this experience can be called a legend, it can be revered and worshipped by the world, and most importantly, you can use this legend Experience to create economic benefits, at least this is an opportunity.”

“I do not quite understand you.”

“Then let’s make it simple. The program team is willing to pay you 50,000 yuan as your reward.”

Fifty thousand yuan is not a small amount. Now it is difficult for him to refuse. Even if he is not a greedy person from beginning to end, he has never thought about being rich and wealthy. He only hopes to return to the old standard of living, but six years ago The compensation given by Global Geography is simply not enough to support him to pay all kinds of messy taxes and daily expenses during the period of no income after inflation.

The most important thing is that he hopes to buy his own house, even if the location is remote, he also hopes that it belongs to him. The years of life on the island have made his temper somewhat lonely. He hopes to stay away from the lively places, at least Listening to the carnival upstairs, I will not seem too lonely.

After all, loneliness needs a reference object for comparison.

But the deposit in the bank account allows him to see the future life situation at a glance. It is not bad in the short term, but if he has no source of income, he will soon be driven into desperation. Therefore, when he is unable to do anything about the current situation of life, give There seemed to be only one choice left to him.

At this moment, he began to consider whether he should participate in some programs, while he still has some topics, earn some money, or seek help from the media, so that the society will recognize him again, instead of the present, everyone It looked like he was looking at a savage, or it was like looking at some rare animal.

Today, his personality has disappeared on the social level. What everyone remembers is the dirty and embarrassed shipwreck survivor, not an oceanographic scholar who has obtained a doctorate degree. This is very important for job hunting. In other words, it is the most disadvantaged situation.

He suddenly began to feel sad. For his own sake, at the moment when he was invited by the show crew, he realized that he hates being a clown in the eyes of others. But now, only being a clown can change his life.

When you realize that you need to live, your self-esteem begins to collapse.

This has been the case since many years ago. This time, it is nothing more than repeating the same mistakes.

He was suddenly embarrassed, and licked his lips for the heartbeat after he refused, pressing his index finger on the edge of the table until the whole finger became white and folded into a big angle. Then he slipped off the edge of the table and made a bang. There was a small sound, and at the same time, the legs trembled uncontrollably, his eyes turned to the window, and he muttered a long mum.

A smile appeared on the corner of the man’s mouth on the phone, satisfied for the tried and tested money offensive, even if the price was not his decision.

Leo is not a person who likes to be exposed to the media. He did not take advantage of his high heat like other famous characters to immediately stand up and make money, but to conquer such a person, or to spend money. It is the most satisfying and satisfying to give in to such a person.

There was no talking on the phone. In another segment, the staff of the program group looked at the watch. It was already the lunch break. As the winner, he didn’t want to wait any longer. He spoke with a mocking smile that Rio could not see.

“Sir? Are you listening?”

“Um…hmm, yes, I’m listening…”

Leo was cramped, his language was vague, but his speech speed increased, which was the result he wanted.

“If you are interested, please call me back. This number is still the same, or you can go directly to the D21 floor of the Drup Building, there will be a staff member to receive you, Mr. Leo, I only represent a person, and I look forward to you very much. s arrival.”

“Okay, I mean…thank you.”

“No thanks, I wish you a happy life.”

The staff hung up the phone, and the camera only showed him a bright and clean formal suit and a young man’s chin without stubble. He exhaled, holding the ballpoint pen back and tapping the desk, the tip of the pen popped out, and the pen was thrown away. Write the text on the notepad and throw the ballpoint pen at the end.

“Finish.”

“Amy! Pay attention, the shipwreck survivor named Leo may contact you, or come here directly, and you will be responsible for receiving it at that time!”

“OK.”

The office chair slid backwards, but the camera remained only on his chest until the chair retreated farther and farther, revealing his work number plate and an inch of blue on the work number plate.

He is also Asian, and he is pretty good. Looking at the photos, he is very sunny and handsome.

…

Three days later.

“Block D…Block D…”

He took his cell phone and drove his navigation to find this radio and television office building that he had never heard of. He knew the location of the BNC television office six years ago, but it has now been replaced by another magazine.

This is the new city center. In the former suburbs, it has become prosperous and has become the city’s new economic carrier. White-collar workers, gold-collar workers, and self-confidence can be clearly distinguished, but Leo is different. Some discomfort, to make way for the professionals who walked by in stride.

This posture is quite weird in the crowd, but it is not eye-catching. People who have guessed may think that he is autistic or suffers from social phobia, and this guess…may be correct.

This is far more uncomfortable for him than the magnificent high-rise buildings in the old city. It is like walking into a huge maze, unable to distinguish the north, south, east and west. The sun, which he identifies in the ocean, is also hidden in the huge steel forest. outer.

The development of civilization is too fast, among the tall buildings, generation after generation have been forgotten.

It was already twenty minutes later to find Block D. He followed the crowd on the elevator, standing in the front row, with other passengers standing behind him. He could feel the breath of these people and the exudes of them. A sense of exhaustion, and he just looked up at the floor and said that he was kneading his trousers a little uneasy.

The twenty-first floor is here. The front desk is Amy, who has been contacted afterwards, and leads him into the office of the program group. Everyone’s eyes are on him, like a lethal laser, which pierced the skin and made the body irritate. Red hair is hot.

They were whispering, maybe not talking about themselves at all, but Leo felt that they were talking about themselves, so they just bowed their heads and followed Amy into the meeting room. She helped Leo serve a cup of coffee and said something. , Turned and left.

Soon, the man on the work card showed his face, stood in front of him, introduced himself, and surprised Leo. Unexpectedly, the person who invited him to the show was actually a Chinese.

“Good class, Zhang Sheng.”

He is also from Guangdong. This local accent narrowed the distance between the two. At least Leo thinks so. This is also his cleverness. He can see Leo’s cramps, which is understandable. For so long, it’s a blessing to have not lost the ability to communicate.

So he chose a smart approach, which is why the leader sent him to invite Leo, fellow, better communicate.

“Good class…”

“I didn’t grow up in Chinatown, so Cantonese is not very standard. From now on, I will still communicate with you in English. I hope you don’t mind.”

“It’s okay, please.”

The man opened the stool and sat down sideways, with one hand on the back of the chair, and the other on the table, staring at Leo for a few seconds, then opened his mouth and sighed.

“Wow If it weren’t for a real person to show up in front of me, I would definitely believe that you are a superman, you… how did you survive such a difficult environment?”

For this question, Leo could only smile reluctantly, and then replied: “I am an oceanographer.”

Raul saw that Leo’s face was suddenly dimmed, and his heart suddenly tightened, only to realize that he seemed to have said the wrong thing. The flattery seemed to be on the horse’s lap. He could chat with Leo and imagine the world with Leo. The hometown on the other end, but he shouldn’t forget his identity or proof of existence.

No one wants to live just as a shipwreck survivor, and the same is true for Leo, as if all his identity and all experiences are left alone.

People whose lives have been erased are destined to be miserable.

He looked at Leo, embarrassed inwardly, but did not show it externally. He just retracted his hand on the back of the chair, rubbed the shiny trousers under the table, still smiling, and nodded. .

“In my opinion, even the best oceanographer will not return as miraculously as you.”

“Thank you.”

Leo nodded to express his gratitude. Even though Raul cleverly slapped the flattering back on his ass, this still did not make Leo happy.

Therefore, the atmosphere became cold and the two chatted awkwardly until Amy brought the contract, and the two parties discussed the cooperation content of this episode. As the disadvantaged party, he did not have too many demands, but only hoped that the host would not talk about it during the show. My own daughter, otherwise, she will lose face… After all, she has a father who was once a beast.

This is not cool at all. It cannot be Lucy’s capital to show off, but it is easy to make her an alternative among partners. After getting the compensation, he also considered this issue. If the father and daughter recognize each other too early, he may No feedback from her daughter’s love at all.

After signing the contract, he left and returned to people’s sight again. This time, he moved faster.

…

“Jerry Show” is not a serious talk show, it has been found on the Internet, and this issue is no exception. The host appeared on stage, shaking a slightly vulgar baggage that made people laugh.

“Leo, are you ready? It’s about to be on stage, listen buddy, you can.”

Next to him, Raul was cheering up, patted Leo on the back, because he had discovered from the time he met that Leo had a slight communication barrier.

If you invite someone, you can’t hit the stage. Although it’s a recorded program, not a live broadcast, Raul knows that if the shooting is not going well, it will cause unnecessary trouble for himself, so he is more nervous than Leo. .

…

“Ladies and gentlemen, recently, there has been a modern Robinson story circulating on the Internet. A man lived alone on a desert island due to a shipwreck for six years. Hearing it clearly, he was alone! This is really weird. If it were me, I would never endure this loneliness and difficult living environment, unless… there is a playboy.”

“Well, let’s stop talking nonsense. Today, we are fortunate to invite the protagonist of this legendary story, the miracle of living in unmanned waters for six years! Leo!”

…

“Remember, smile, keep kind and warm, GO! Come on stage, you can Rio.”

Raul continued to encourage and encourage this man who was dressed up to the point where his life had never been so exquisite, with a suit and leather shoes and neat hair, even though he was still timid.

Fulfill his obligations, complete his duties, then take the money, go home, sleep well, when nothing happens, this is what he needs to do, but when he steps on the steps, his feet are still soft and slightly Staggering, like the moment he had just landed on the island, he left in this way, and also returned.

The light was warm, but it was not as good as the eyes of the audience. He dodged his eyes and then reluctantly raised his breath. According to the plan, he stretched out his hand, raised his right hand, greeted the audience and greeted the applause.

“You are more handsome than I thought, Mr. Miracle, please sit down.”

“Thank you, Jerry.”

He sat down on the comfortable sofa, with his hands hanging down on the armrests of the sofa, and then placed on his legs again. After changing his posture several times, he finally determined what kind of posture he should take to welcome this interview.

Sitting opposite was a middle-aged white man with gray hair and a little fat, pretending to be interested, and constantly looking at Leo because they had already met backstage.

“Could you please introduce yourself?”

“My name is Leo. I am thirty-five years old this year. I graduated from XX Polytechnic University and I am engaged in marine biology research before…”

At first, he followed the rules and asked about Leo’s past, involving the family, but kept his specific circumstances secret, but when he heard that Leo’s girlfriend had married, the audience sighed.

This couldn’t let Leo relax. He was still cautious, talking about the details of life on the island, and he tried his best to restore the real thing, until the two talked about something that was slightly human.

“We all know that when you live alone and you don’t have the same kind to communicate, the pressure is very high. When I’m under pressure, I always come to relax. Don’t laugh! Don’t laugh, everyone! I’m serious. Everyone, didn’t you do this? Actually, I’m very curious, how did you solve your physical problems on the island and you have no other kind?

This is the source of the ratings, and it is also a question that the interviewee cannot refuse to answer. This aspect is not difficult to tell in Europe and the United States. It is just that Leo tells how he screamed when he was rushing, and the question naturally began to be embarrassing.

He needs to keep smiling, as Raul said, but at this time it is difficult for him to laugh, he can only smile reluctantly, like a fool, with his right hand supporting his chin, his little finger at the corner of his mouth, and a grunt. .

“I…I…can paint on the wall.”

“Huh, my heart is relieved. Seriously, I thought you would find a fish, a fish big enough!”

This is very connotative? Forget it, it’s actually very explicit. Jerry raised his index fingers and gestured the length of the fish. His expression was exaggerated and relieved. The audience burst into laughter, except for Leo, who bit his finger and still hummed slightly.

“Ha ha……”

Backstage, Raul embraced his arms and looked down at his watch. He suddenly felt a little embarrassed for Leo. Even the private lives of past guests would be used to joke, but the characters’ experiences are different. For his compatriots, he can feel the same way, but the overwhelming majority of the laughing whites and blacks cannot compare their hearts.

After all, human beings are not one and the same, so they lack empathy.

Amy was also covering her mouth and chuckles, happy for Jerry’s improvised vulgar joke, Raul glanced at it and the two looked at each other.

“What a comedy…”

In this regard, Amy did not answer, nor did his smile fade.

Everyone knows that when someone laughs in a comedy, someone will cry, but it’s not their compatriots who are crying this time.

In the first period of the interview, Jerry’s wonderful gag made the audience laugh continuously, but for Leo, it was suffering. He had to grit his teeth every second until the interview was over. He left the stage like running away without watching. Raul, walk back to the locker room to change clothes and leave.

Walking to the gate, he found that Raul was already waiting outside the door.

“Leo, I remember you just said on stage, are you looking for a job?”

“Yes, what’s wrong?”

“I have a job as an aquarium keeper here. Would you like to try it first? My sister works there. Based on your education and professionalism, there should be no problem in hiring. It just depends on whether you want to go. you.”

He handed a note with his name and phone number written on it. Josephine, it is probably his sister. This is the nectar. For his purse that is about to dry out, he did not refuse, just the action when he took the note. , And not so smooth and natural.

“Thank you……”

“No thanks. Finding an oceanographer to work in the aquarium is really overkill. You don’t mind. If you have a suitable job, don’t hesitate to leave.”

Leo clamped the note in his wallet, nodded to him, his steps suddenly became a little heavy, Raul looked sideways, and suddenly thought of something, stretched out his hand to stop Leo again.

“Zhang Sheng… forget who you were, and start living from the beginning.”

“I… have no courage, and I am destined to be reminded.”

“Then, I wish you a happy life.”

…

A week later, he received an offer from the aquarium.

Putting on work clothes, rain boots made him sweaty feet, and he quickly developed athlete’s foot. After applying plaster, put on clean socks, he came out of the locker room and started to change water for the dolphin pool.

His job is heavier than other staff. Of course, he is also paid more generously than other staff. The reason is that he is the most educated among the aquarium’s professional counterparts.

Not only is responsible for the feeding and cleaning of dolphins, but also the control of water temperature, the treatment of simple wounds of some animals, and even the breeding work of animals after estrus and estrus caused by the regulation of water temperature.

He is considered to be a great **** here. Scholars who have been hired by National Geographic should be respected by others. The owner of the aquarium also gives him this respect, but he still does not like to communicate with others, is reticent and very withdrawn.

This comes from the mental trauma after the shipwreck. Employees and leaders understand it, but this cannot be a reason for them to have a hot face and a cool butt. Therefore, when he completed his work perfectly, he lacked some praise and admiration, allowing him to interact with the outside world. Continue to isolate myself.

If it weren’t for the colleague with a better relationship, Josephine should be the only one. As a compatriot, there is more reason to be close. She is not the leader, but a very important actor in the aquarium. After all, the divers who dare to swim with sharks are very Rarely, it can be said that she is part of the guarantee of the aquarium’s income.

“Goodboy!”

A sardine was thrown out and swallowed by a dolphin jumping out of the water. It screamed, exposing its huge forehead, and then dived into the water to spin, showing off its graceful lines to Leo.

This is also a strange point for all employees. In just a few days of work, he can mingle with all the animals in the aquarium and show him good. This puzzling ability is understood by the employees as an oceanographer. Special abilities.

No one thinks about super powers. Although what he did is really like super powers, this is not Marvel or DC after all. The inherent cognition should not be broken, just like the law of life.

It was closed time. He didn’t leave in order to give these guys extra meals. The lights were mostly turned off for lighting purposes. He squatted by the pool, his toes were itchy, and the uppers were constantly squirming. You can see his toes. Actions.

In his hand, he is holding a notebook and writing letters. This habit cultivated in the isolated island has not been given up. He is used to writing letters to his wife and daughter that can never be sent again, so his thoughts become real, in the paper With the pen, flowers bloomed.

Behind him, there was the sound of footsteps not far away, and the dolphins crowded in front of him spread out and put the notebook in their pockets. He turned his head and looked at Josephine.

“Leo? Why haven’t you left?”

She is very beautiful, especially when she is wearing a diving suit and a mermaid tail, she is like a living mermaid, and when she takes off her work clothes, she can’t hide her perfect figure in casual clothes.

She should be going on a date with her boyfriend, with exquisite makeup, the big round earrings are slightly swinging, and he can feel the mood swings she exudes when the animal is in heat.

“Leave in a while.”

“Do you need me to take you for a ride? I happen to be going near Falos Street.”

“No, I’m going to the pier in a while.”

There is not much interaction between the two. After all, Josephine’s working hours are much shorter than that of Leo. Even in the aquarium, the chance of encountering them is relatively small. If it is not for the gift that was given to her boyfriend, she will return to pick it up. The two did not have a chance to live in a quiet room.

Therefore, the relationship between the two is not as close as other employees imagined. It is nothing but the slightest fetters caused by the already weak compatriots. As for this job? There is no leader who doesn’t like employees with comprehensive capabilities and not many words. What she did was to follow the flow and bring Leo to a job he had never considered before.

Hearing Leo’s refusal, she shrugged and did not invite anymore. After all, the invitation was not from the sincerity. After saying goodbye, she turned and left. The pace was brisk but also fast. It seems that she has been looking forward to today’s dinner for a long time.

Soon after she left, he also got up, compared to Josephine’s hypocritical enthusiasm, swimming in the pool, the dolphin who jumped out of the water from time to time just to make Leo happy, more like his compatriot, his true spiritual friend .

“I gotta go.”

The response was the sound of dolphins echoing in the hall, with reluctance, and the expectation of seeing you tomorrow. This kind of high IQ animal understands his heart better than the dead bass, Paul.

…

Putting on casual clothes, he bid farewell to the security guard on duty. He strolled on the beach with a hot dog in his hand and looked around, but he did not see the wandering black back.

This made Leo start to worry about whether he has been taken away by the animal management, or to think about it in a good place, whether he has found his way home and met the person he has long wanted to see.

At this moment, it was fine weather. Even at night, there were still many people fishing at the pier. He ate hot dogs and watched a fisherman catch a grouper. The weight was not small, which aroused the crowd and praise of others.

It may be the fisherman’s main dish tomorrow night, or it may appear in the freezer in the mall, but it is impossible to return to the sea. Leo does not want to watch it again, even if it is eaten because of human needs for food. , Or as a link in the food chain, he should treat it plainly, but unfortunately, he could hear the grouper wailing in pain.

The dock is destined to be unsuitable for a monster who can hear the voices of animals to stop. Where laughter and despair coexist, closing the hearing is the best way.

He left and didn’t go far. The Mexican seafood restaurant on the side of the road was surrounded by many people. A man in a chef’s costume came out. Leo could feel the anger and malice in his heart. He pointed his finger at a white woman and the two confronted each other. .

Feelings do not exist alone, just like this, when quarrels occur, anger must be accompanied by the desire and hope to kill.

The crowd was noisy, and he couldn’t hear what the two were arguing, but the sign in the hands of the others read: “Humans please don’t murder lives”, making him realize that these guys are not easy to mess with. The animal protection organization is too much. Difficulties, especially extreme animal protection organizations.

But the accident came too fast, he wanted to leave to avoid getting into the storm, but when he was bad luck, he was often not as expected, he was pulled into the crowd, the pressure suddenly rose, and he became nervous.

“May I have something?”

“Life is given by nature! You don’t have the right to deprive other species of their lives for nothing! They are so magical, so colorful! Are their beautiful colors just to arouse the appetite of diners when they are served on the table? ”

“Yes! Yes! It looks good! So I have an appetite when I eat it! No? I have hunted elephants just for ivory decoration to make me noble? I killed a tiger and made a specimen to attract customers? Nothing! No mistakes! Get away! Stay away from my shop! You crazy people! I’m going to call the police now!”

The boss is Mexican and he is murmuring, but Leo understands roughly, but surprisingly, the confronting woman appears to be confident and not afraid because the boss calls the police.

In Leo’s impression, although the Animal Protection Association has always been strong, it will not interfere with the normal business of the store and assume a confident attitude. The world is becoming more and more difficult for Leo to understand.

“Then we will let others judge! What do you think about these beasts eating such cute lobsters? Do you think they are doing the right thing?”

The woman asked Leo, saying that she was looking for someone to judge, but this posture was more like a threat, with a sense that those who followed me would prosper against me and perish. He didn’t want to cause trouble, but after asking himself, he was also annoying after all. This group of people, so he can only circle around in the language.

“It is wrong to hunt and protect animals as decoration. It is wrong to measure the price of the accessory resources of rare species. They have the right to survive unless they are abandoned by nature…”

“Hey friend! We are talking about eating lobsters. The protection of rare animals is something everyone should recognize!”

These people are like extreme thugs, trying to involve the innocent and force them to stand in line. Perhaps what Leo said is not satisfactory to them, and today they will punch Leo on his body.

Some people are so strange that they can give praise and praise to everything, but they will always commit atrocities to the same species.

“Any killing outside the food chain should be stopped, but the food chain should not be destroyed, otherwise it will cause ecological imbalance…”

“Then you and him support the killing? Are you still a human? Why is the compassion and kindness that humans should have in you not at all?”

The man who appeared suddenly pushed Leo with great strength, and almost pushed him a somersault. Standing on a moral high, he seemed to want to push Leo into an immoral cliff.

“If I were a lobster, I would definitely object, but because I am a human…”

“Don’t beat people!”

The restaurant owner stood up, protected Leo, and confronted everyone again. The dispute did not end until the police evacuated the crowd. Hearing the threat of the lunatics leaving, he didn’t take it seriously. He just didn’t. Being willing to communicate with people does not mean that he is cowardly, otherwise, he would not stand in a human position and fight against a group of lobsters.

“Man, thank you for your righteous words. Come in and sit down. I ask you to eat one of the best lobsters to relieve your breath. Don’t get to know these lunatics.”

The boss was enthusiastic, because they were in the same group just now. Leo stood on the right side and bravely fought against the wrong side. There were so many people who feared the other side. At this point, the boss admired him.

The clothes on his body are not messy, because although the quarrel is fierce, the two sides are basically rational, and they are not going to fight. He is calm on the warm hospitality the boss wants to do, but he does not intend to accept it.

“No, thank you.”

“You’re welcome boy, it’s free, try authentic Mexican food! I will put less spicy.”

“Really no need. Although I am a human being,… the lobster is also my friend.”

He said what he wanted to say. Under the street lamp, his clothes were thin and the sea breeze was strong. The corners of his clothes were raised, and the boss’ chef hat was blown off. The boss was stunned, holding the chef hat as if looking To the freak.

People become friends with food materials. In his opinion, or in the eyes of normal people, they are all aliens. Is he human? At this moment in Leo, the boundary between human and animal began to blur, not as clear as before.

“Leave! You leave for me! Now!”

The friendliness towards the same kind gradually disappeared, replaced by the hostility towards the alien. Leo didn’t look at his face and turned to leave. His impression of the boss was only the shiny black beard at the corner of his mouth.

…

“Go, replace me, and see her.”

On the side of the community street, he was sitting on a bench not far away, holding a beautiful butterfly in his hand, and gently ordered that it flew up, and the flight route was not loose, as if the destination had already been reached. On the lawn, she When playing, parents are not around, after all, the middle-class community is still safe.

The butterfly fluttered until it stayed on top of her head. She screamed in excitement and tried to gently touch it. It still did not dodge, so she became even more excited and shouted to Mommy.

Not far away, Leo smiled, took out the notepad from her chest pocket, and continued to complete the castle she might see one day in the future, built with thoughts.

Soon, Tina came out, wow, squatted beside Lucy in admiration, tried to touch it with her hands, and really touched the butterfly’s wings, but her eyes suddenly became complicated and her eyes seemed to have moisture. Start brewing.

He sat on the bench, his body straight, his hands on his legs naturally, expressionless, like A-Gump after a soldier, but not so dull, and Tina is not Jenny.

She attached what she said in Lucy’s ear, causing her to suddenly turn her head and glance at Leo. Although her attention was refocused on the butterfly, just a glance can make Leo happy for a long time. This is him. The first meeting with Lucy is worthy of his memory.

Tina walked straight up, but didn’t kiss Chuck like Kelly. (Note: the hero and heroine of “Legend of the Wild”)

Time allows everyone to be an executioner, cut accidents and episodes, and maintain the smooth operation of life.

The same is true for her. It is no longer important whether the relationship exists or not. You can do your best to love a person, but… After his death, you cannot dig his body out of the grave and continue to love him. This is normal for a person. For people, it is pathological.

“You don’t want me to disturb Lucy’s life anymore, do you?”

This is the answer in Tina’s mind, but can you say it? No, is she sad? Yes.

“If you can…before she knows the truth.”

“When will it be?”

“I am not sure.”

“I love her.”

“I know, because you love her.”

“Why can’t love be selfish?”

“Why can’t love be selfless?”

“Shit.”

Love is perfect. It is the most ugly word in the world. It is the curse wrapped by the beneficiaries. If the ugly things cannot be beautified to the climax, how can others eat it willingly?

All love is selfish. Parents love their children because they are their children. Children love their parents because they are their parents. They love their spouses because they are their spouses. Even if they love a third party, they also love their children. For a certain period of time, you can completely have a person who is considerate of you and brings you inner joy.

Even if you love and love the world, it must come from that everyone loves you.

“For her sake.”

“Then please think about me.”

This time the meeting broke up unhappily, and you can’t even find a pleasant reason. At this moment, even if you don’t want to hurt each other, the two pierced each other.

And after he left, the butterfly also fluttered its wings, and fluttered away after circling a few times in Lucy’s reluctant cry.

…

What is the greatest joy of living in an aquarium? In addition to being able to accompany your favorite marine life all day long, you should be able to watch the beauty show in the aquarium for free.

Beautiful women with bumpy figures wear only swimsuits on the upper body, and fishtails on the lower body that are sufficient to satisfy the fantasy desires and hopes of alternative fairy tales. They swim gracefully in the water. After the consciousness gradually wakes up in that aspect, it is difficult for you to rest your mind regardless of men and women For the purpose of going to the aquarium to watch the show.

If you don’t believe me, try replacing the performer with a handsome guy with eight pack abs?

Of course, there are some exceptions, such as a middle-aged man who is worrying about the experiment.

“Dear?”

“Hmm…hmm? What’s the matter?”

“I think when you accompany your son out to play, you should calm down and stay with your child, what do you think?”

The wife’s tone was very calm, she stroked her son’s hair and smiled at James, but the warning was self-evident, and the famous professor’s forehead began to sweat. After looking at the glass, she quietly danced with sharks. , Stared at the obsessed son who was looking at him, and had to smile apologetically to his wife.

“It’s my fault, sorry dear.”

This is not a big mistake, she only needs an apologetic look, and she can forgive her husband for being inattentive while playing, but… if she is always staring at the beautiful woman swimming in the pool, then… one look should not be solved. .

She got a satisfactory answer and let her husband go. At this time, a little drool fell from the corners of the child’s mouth. For a child who seemed to be five or six years old, this was not normal, and the child’s head was somewhat longer. Inconsistent, Shangwei is too lenient, and others can tell at a glance that there may be something wrong with the child’s intelligence.

She picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her son’s mouth. She has long been accustomed to the gaze of others on the child and herself. Over the years, she has developed a very strong heart.

The family watched this wonderful underwater performance quietly. It was not surprising to the cheers of other parents and children. James took his son and put it on his lap, close to the child’s ear, telling him that he was Even if he knew the type of shark performing, his son couldn’t understand it.

A family of three watched a whitetip shark slowly swimming towards the beauty she was dancing with. The beauty stroked the shark’s back and gently pressed it on its back. Then… the shark suddenly turned her head and bit her.

Whitetip sharks are docile and usually feed on small fishes or squids. They are basically harmless to humans, but occasionally incidents that attack humans occur, such as the **** tragedy witnessed by hundreds of witnesses.

The blood was diluted in the water and attracted the attention of other sharks. She was surrounded by more than a dozen whitetip sharks alone. The other “mermaids” had already been scared and fled the performance pool.

She is struggling, and everyone can understand the severe pain under her hideous face, the bubbles from the corners of her mouth, and the wailing that the witnesses can’t hear. It’s very quiet but close at hand. The dismemberment operation began.

“OMG!”

“Call an ambulance!”

“Who can come to save her! Hurry up! It’s going to kill her!”

James covered his son’s eyes for the first time, even though he didn’t know what happened, he was still struggling to push away his father’s hand to continue watching.

His wife was also buried in his arms, and kept praying for the girl who didn’t know each other but was suffering from misfortune. Everyone present was panicking. Only James was calm. This was related to his career. Dialed the number of the hospital.

“How is she?”

“Not good. Although the other sharks didn’t attack her, the first shark was still biting, and the arm was broken. It was very difficult to stitch…”

“Don’t say it.”

The wife didn’t dare to look, but she still cared about the girl and asked James about the specific situation, but she didn’t expect that James’ answer would be so specific. She blamed herself for talking, she might have a nightmare tonight.

“Are there no rescuers in the aquarium?”

No one dares to save this situation. Even if the rescuer is holding a weapon, it is difficult to deploy underwater. Even if the shark is really injured, it will only make it more manic. In this case, the water is basically for nothing. , They can only wait for the sharks to let go. After all, the whitetip sharks do not eat humans. Perhaps their attacking intention is just out of curiosity. If you take a few bites, you will lose interest.

It’s just that James didn’t know this aspect and he could only look forward to it, and the savior he was looking forward to really appeared. A man rushed to the edge of the pool, unarmed, plunged into the water, swimming at a speed that ordinary people can’t match. Swim to the sharks quickly, and the whitetip sharks onlookers, as if they had been ordered, gave him space, but this scene was only noticed by James.

The shark named Jack went mad, and Leo didn’t know the reason. He could only feel the rage after it saw blood. Even if he kept inputting the instructions to let go of the shark, it still didn’t stop.

“What is he doing? Don’t kill me?”

“what happened?”

“No…nothing…”

This is a scene that is difficult for humans to understand. In the water area full of blood, the man boldly stretched his hands to the shark’s mouth, and actually broke the mouth of the fish and rescued the girl without being attacked or even threatened. Before going up, he didn’t forget to punch the shark in the eye.

Pushing the girl to the edge of the pool, the paramedics quickly stopped the girl’s bleeding and gave artificial respiration. Leo sat aside, his feet still in the water, like an old man who was tired from swimming and soaking his feet in the pool.

And the shark Jack, also floated up, gently pressed the tip of his nose against Leo’s feet, as if he knew he had made a big mistake, Leo could even feel Jack’s heart, begging for mercy, hoping Leo could save it.

“I can’t save you.”

It is destined to die and pay for the girl’s arm. Before long, employees will poke it through with a spear gun to make feed and feed it to other aggressive sharks, such as tiger sharks or great white sharks.

This was foreseeable. Leo couldn’t stop it, and he shouldn’t stop it. He could only whisper and confess his fate to Jack, then got up, wiped the water stains on his face, and looked at the scared flower. The ecstatic “Mermaid” girls, in the gratitude of all the employees, silently left, he knew that he was going to be famous again.

…

The sensation of this incident was not small, and it was even popular in other countries. He appeared in the public eye again. This time, he became more than just his hero.

However, this time he refused many media invitations, and he has never even appeared in public to express his ideas. After all, now he has a job and received a huge prize from the aquarium. He has the ability to talk about becoming an exhibit. Do not.

The media turned helpless and began to criticize the immorality of the aquarium. What they were referring to was that the aquarium’s mermaid performances were inhumane, placing people and dangerous sharks in the same pool, squandering human lives and under pressure. This performance can only be stopped indefinitely.

There are also animal protection organizations that say that it is inhumane to imprison marine life in aquarium tanks with extremely narrow living environments. I hope that the aquarium can release the animals. If you don’t say one last word about this statement , Leo is supportive.

A series of things that happened afterwards gradually broke away from Leo and became a headache that only the leader could have. The waves in his life gradually subsided, and there were changes. It was nothing but the friendliness of colleagues, and gradually, There are also some cheap gifts.

It’s just that he noticed that a middle-aged Asian man named James came to the aquarium more frequently.

…

“Sir?”

“Huh? Any help?”

By the pool, he was feeding, and a male voice greeted him behind him. When he turned his head, James in a suit and leather shoes was looking at him. Leo had some impression of James.

“No… I just want to talk to someone, and I want to learn… ocean knowledge.”

“Sorry, I am a breeder, not a tour guide. This is the staff area. Tourists are not allowed to enter. If you want to listen to some marine knowledge, twenty yuan, follow the tour guide and he will introduce you all the knowledge you want to know.”

He refused, and his attitude was a bit tough, because he could feel that the purpose of this man was not as simple as he said. His thoughts were only for himself, without malicious intent, more like curiosity, and this curiosity , Is exactly what Leo resisted.

“Emmm… well, my name is James.”

James stood straight and looked at Leo, who was squatting by the pool and turning his head to look at him. He was a little embarrassed when he was rejected. After all, he is a tourist. It stands to reason that even if the staff refuses, the attitude of the staff will not be like this Be tough, if you have a kinder attitude, you should be able to talk a few words, but Leo’s attitude really surprised him.

Pursing his lips, he began to introduce himself, still following the original plan, at least hoping that he could leave some impressions in Leo’s memory for the next contact.

“Good sir.”

It was just an understatement, and there was no feedback of his name, which made the scene more embarrassing. There was silence for a while. Seeing that Leo still had no desire to talk, he waved his hand and turned around to leave, suddenly thinking of something, turning around, and again Open up.

“Did you know, our two alumni, I graduated from the Department of Medicine of XX Polytechnic University.”

“Have you checked my information?”

“Actually I was there the day the shark attacked people.”

“So?”

“So I met you through the media, you know, I admire you very much.”

Worship yourself? Leo didn’t speak. The emotion he felt from James didn’t have any meaning of worship, and it was more like knowing something, and it was easy to make mistakes, so he chose to be silent.

“Can you exchange contact information?”

“I don’t think it is necessary.”

Leo picked up the feed bucket and was about to leave. Since he didn’t leave, he would just go by himself, so as not to entangle him again, but when he just pushed the door into the staff passage, James said a word and made Leo stop. .

“Can people remember that you are an oceanographer?”

“The people around me can.”

“But neither of your daughters can.”

“The media won’t announce this matter You investigate what I want to do?”

“Confidentiality, unless… share a secret with me.”

“Everyone has countless secrets.”

“Then tell me one that interests me.”

“I’m considering whether to beat you up.”

James’ smile was very gentle, and he was not hostile to Leo. Leo can be sure of this. And what he wanted to know, Leo gradually knew what he wanted, but the ability that would cause great trouble to him was still swallowing. Good in the stomach.

James didn’t say anything, he just watched Leo leave. He didn’t give up the idea of ​​getting acquainted with Leo, but he knew that it is impossible to make friends with a lonely person in one fell swoop, otherwise Leo would have a feeling of resentment towards him. On the contrary, the gain was not worth the loss. Most importantly, he believed that Leo could detect that he had discovered something.
