"What kind of tie is it?"
"Ginger yellow with stripes, the texture is very good." She said as if she had touched it before.
"You like collecting ties?"
"Maybe?"
Hall had already opened his wardrobe when he spoke, and the middle drawer was opened, revealing brand new ties. His eyes scanned it critically, and the yellow color stood out among the deep colors. His eyes paused, and he found a striped tie that was also ginger yellow, with a satin finish, similar to what she described. But this is not unusual.
"How strange, Huo." She sent another message.
This time, Hall exchanged names with her from the beginning, but she called him "good Samaritan" and "bastard", but she didn't call him by his name, as if she was pretending that she had a bad memory. This was the first time she called him that, it was so natural and natural.
Once again, Hall discovered the imperfection of the picture in his mind. He asked, "What does your voice sound like?"
"Like an oriole coming out of the valley?"
“…”
"Ah, I forgot you couldn't hear me. My voice is very sweet. Imagine yourself eating a pear and biting it down. It's soft, juicy and crisp!" She spoke vividly, and finally said immediately, " Why are you asking this suddenly? Let’s talk about my boyfriend first.”
Hall spoke slowly, "Your... boyfriend?"
"Yes, a man's tie appeared on my bed. Isn't it a symbol that I have a boyfriend? Your genius brain is not enough for you to guess?"
This sentence was too harsh, and the eyebrows he raised unconsciously revealed his displeasure. He laughed sarcastically: "My brain tells me you have a tie collecting habit."
"Your brain could use some repair."
"If you have a boyfriend, there won't be just one tie on the bed. There will be traces of his life everywhere in the room. You have to be careful. You may have been desperate and kidnapped a man and were about to kill him." \\corpse."
“…”
"how?"
":o You guessed it right." She made an exclamation expression.
"Killing people and hiding corpses?"
"There are men's clothes and watches in the closet, and there is a razor in the bathroom, but there is only one toothbrush cup. Wait, why do I suddenly feel that this may not be my room, but a man's room?"
Hall thought of the note. There was only one address on it, but it wasn't necessarily her address. He slowly sat up straight.
"Do you have any information about the homeowner?"
This time, after a long time, she didn't speak.
Hall acted extremely calm. At this time, should he be grateful that she was just a character in a small game? In any case, the game will not design levels that the player cannot pass, and nothing will happen to her.
but-
Whether it was the lines of thought in his mind that were as chaotic as a Picasso painting, or his noisy heart, he was asking questions over and over again.
Why is she just a character in the game
Outside of the game, he could do nothing for her except waiting for news with his cell phone.
Just when he was immersed in his own world, the ringtone from the outside world suddenly interrupted his thoughts. Its rhythm was rapid and sharp, far more than three times. Hall lowered his head and looked at his phone again. There was no message. He patted the flour dust on his body and calmly opened the door.
The assistant had already tidied up the kitchen, but because she had found the "tie clue", he was so focused that he didn't even have time to change his clothes. The water in the bathtub must have been cold.
Outside the door was an anxious agent. He didn't even have time to be surprised by Hall's "magical" look in an apron.
"Charger?" Hall raised his eyebrows, not knowing how he was still in the mood to joke with the other party.
"Have you read the news on the Internet?" The agent didn't even show a smile, his face was extremely serious, "Your relationship with Alyssa was exposed on the Internet."
"Um?"
"The time you went to the hospital to see her, there were actually paparazzi standing outside and taking a lot of photos. Now it is being spread on the Internet that you made a female high school student pregnant and took her to the hospital for an abortion."
Alyssa is 18 years old and an adult, but she is still very sensitive in terms of her identity.
If it weren't for such a "scandal", as a writer, few people would pay attention to Hall's daily life, no matter how high his status was. However, even if he did not have any special exposure or marketing, his appearance still made him stand out in the writers circle and firmly attracted a group of female fans. In comparison, his well-known works that have won numerous awards and are best-selling at home and abroad, as well as his status in the literary circle that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, are not so important in the entertainment-oriented network.
It's not unimportant. At least because of this, when the bad news appeared, it immediately spread like wildfire on the Internet.
—The seemingly mysterious writers’ circle is indeed as chaotic as they imagined.
"Where's Alyssa?"
"She's in school. That's not important. The most important thing now is to deal with the public relations in a timely manner. At least we must issue a statement first to explain that she is just the daughter adopted by your parents, your sister..." The agent said patiently. I couldn't help but curse "shit!" and said, "It's too easy for people to make a fuss about this relationship."
Brothers and sisters who are not related by blood are very easy to imagine, especially now that "pregnancy abortion" has been exposed. Alyssa was under 18 when she was adopted. Thinking more seriously, it is not impossible for Hall to be slandered as a pedophile.
"She's not important?" Hall glanced at him lightly, "As the chief director of this play, how can she not be important?"
But in a moment, the agent understood, "She did this?" It makes sense if you think about it this way. There are really not many reporters who will follow Hall to take pictures. They usually do it when he wins awards and new books are released. Appearing during this period, he still wondered why it was such a coincidence this time. But after figuring this out, more confusion followed, "What's wrong with her brain?" By portraying herself as a girl who hangs out with men, what else can she gain besides tarnishing her own image
"I think you should ask her psychiatrist about this."
He pretended not to understand Hall's sarcasm, after all, he was the one who found the psychiatrist. Instead, he thought of another point, "Did you... drag her number out of the blacklist last time?" The only reason that could make that little devil go so crazy was because her guardian hadn't contacted her for a long time.
"No."
Hall said: "It won't be possible in the future."
Soon, the agent arranged an emergency clarification conference, stating that the two were brother and sister, and Alyssa was the adopted sister of Hall's parents. In order to prevent netizens from getting to the bottom of it, the relationship between Hall and Alyssa's brother was also explained.
Near the end, Hall himself arrives belatedly. He walked onto the stage in a formal suit and leaned down to the height of the microphone. "The adoption relationship as stated by my agent ends here. From today on, I have no relationship with her."
The spotlights in the audience flashed rapidly, and the sound immediately became noisy, and everyone actively wanted to ask questions.
A reporter asked: "There is no relationship. Does that mean the adoption relationship has been terminated?"
"yes."
"Your agent just mentioned your relationship with her brother. This is his last wish. Aren't you ready to continue fulfilling your best friend's wish?"
"She is already 18 years old." Hall's ruthless and cold appearance is clearly visible under his handsome appearance that makes countless women scream. "Of course, I will still be responsible for her tuition and living expenses until she is able to afford her own expenses. Life."
"Her brother will always be my esteemed friend."
The implication is that everything has nothing to do with her.
Alyssa mingled among the crowd. She was not wearing a school uniform. She persuaded a reporter with her appearance and pretended to be the other party's photographer to enter the venue. She looked at Hall with heartbroken eyes, and the scratches on the back of the chair showed her hidden madness.
On the car ride home from the venue, the colorful street lights kept changing on the car windows, as if someone had poured paint on them layer by layer.
There was wine in the car. Hall drank a small glass and looked at the scenery passing by outside the window with no expression. He rarely drinks. Some authors need alcohol to inspire inspiration, but for him, a clear mind can write good words.
"Don't put too much pressure on me." The manager rubbed his temples and comforted him, "Fortunately, you are not a real star. This matter has been clarified, and the fun will be over after a while."
Despite his mean and unsympathetic appearance in front of the media, in fact, when the situation reaches this level, the sensitive heart of the novelist will start to trouble him again. The two had worked together for such a long time, and he knew Hall somewhat. It is true that he has no feelings for Alyssa, but things have gradually evolved to this extent, which is a big blow to a person with an arrogant personality.
Hall shook his glass and said nothing.
After a while, the phone dinged, indicating that a text message had been received.
The agent looked sideways and was surprised to find that the man who was looking down at the information actually showed a real smile.
"Okay, this time I searched the whole house. Phew, I'm exhausted." She said tiredly and cheerfully, "There is also a bedroom in the house for a girl. I was attracted by that man's bedroom at first. It seemed more familiar to me, so I thought it was my room, but it turned out it wasn't."
"Your boyfriend?" Hall asked.
She corrected: "It's my brother."
Before Hall could relax, someone from the other side said, "But he seems to be someone I like as well. We are not related by blood."
"Oh?" He handed the wine glass to the agent and focused on talking to her, "How did you find out?"
"I found the adoption certificate."
Seeing this, Hall didn't know if it was his illusion. He found that her sense of autonomy seemed to have increased. The interesting thing about a puzzle game is that the NPC guides the player to solve the puzzle. After the secret room, the house was originally supposed to be the second place to solve the puzzle, but her search process seemed to go very smoothly, and the two of them had been talking to each other for a long time. No "level" appeared, did she crack it automatically
Or is the key point of this plot the letter
Just as he thought of this, he heard her take the initiative to mention, "Do you remember that letter? It was found in my brother's bedroom. I said I seemed to like him because of the content in that letter. I looked through the sunlight When I looked at the envelope, I seemed to see words on the stamp, so I carefully tore the stamp open. There was a word 'AI' on it, and my signature was hidden so deeply."
"'I really like you', 'I like you crazy', I really like him, right?"
Hall thought of the content in that letter. Such a passionate and crazy love originally made him outline a crazy image, which he should avoid as much as possible. But when these feelings appeared in her, especially when she had such feelings for another person.
He suddenly felt unhappy.
"Maybe he is a world-famous star." He said slowly, "You are just chasing stars."
"Really? Then I'm not the most successful fan!"
His sarcastic signal apparently didn't register with her at all. A sneer escaped Hall's thin lips, and the agent next to him was frightened when he heard it, and couldn't help but look at his screen.
Hall felt the need to remind her one thing, "So where is your brother now?"
The author has something to say: I am terribly sleepy today. It is obvious that the one who had insomnia all night yesterday was a thief. Why am I so sleepy?
I think everyone is very interested in the bug I mentioned. I don’t know when it will be fixed yet, so I’ll talk about it first. It was mainly a bug on the part of the program team. This program invited five people and five unknown numbers to send messages to Hall. How could they think it would work? The program team is stupid!
At the beginning, I set three people, and then I decided to join the celebrity confrontation. If there were two anchors and one star, it would be very strange that both anchors are from the Long Day Star (because the Long Day Star is a small planet, and this one is Galaxy’s popular variety show) So I expanded the team to five people. I tried my best to arrange the scenes for everyone, but Miranda's arrangement was not good enough. (Originally she had another role, but due to the rhythm of the plot, I deleted it completely. This role seemed redundant)
Until yesterday, I suddenly thought, why am I so stupid to stick to an unknown number
I can definitely create a mini-game in the early stage and give some benefits to the guests. Those who win the mini-game can get the number of the special character. Like Hall's mother
Miranda: I refuse.
