The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)
Chapter 732: Sneaking in
The carnival in the Pioneer Village lasted the whole night. When leaving the bar, you could see the orange-red morning sun spilling over the entire Hudson River, soft and blazing, and the indigo blue sky was so beautiful that you could hold your breath and couldn’t help thinking. Open your arms, start soaring in the raging wind, and enjoy the freedom of freedom to your heart's content.
For three consecutive nights, the average sleep time was only two hours; on the fourth night, he had an all-night carnival. According to common sense, Lan Li should feel that his body seems to have reached its limit. There seems to be a small flame burning deep in the pubic area, with heavy steps, light torso, and mental exhaustion. But in fact, Lan Li is getting more and more tired. Shaking up, it seems that a good rest has been guaranteed during the past period of time, without any problems at all.
This is an illusion, a false signal from the body. Long-term lack of sleep will inevitably lead to the result. Of course, the solution is also very simple: a good and hard sleep, the entire biological clock and metabolism are adjusted, and the problem is solved.
However, Lan Li did not rush back to the apartment and immediately fell asleep. At 11 o'clock this morning, a long-distance flight across the Atlantic is waiting; after arriving in London, there is a whole day of rest and adjustment time. This is a great time to immerse yourself in dreams. However, before that, the road to the airport, passing through customs, and boarding the plane was all bumpy. Obviously, it is not the time to fall asleep. Even if you fall asleep, it will not be stable.
As for now... If possible, Lanly wants to skateboard and glide freely on the empty streets. The streets of Manhattan Island are so quiet in the early morning, and the avenues staggered between the reinforced forests are dream-like empty and magnificent, as if they are really walking through the dream levels in the "Inception".
However, when Lan Li went out today, he did not carry a skateboard, so he had to give up in the end. After enjoying the grandeur and splendor of the sunrise, I stopped a taxi and proceeded all the way in the direction of Uptown/City, and arrived at Mount Sinai Hospital unimpeded. New York, which was gradually recovering, began to become noisy; however, Mount Sinai Hospital had already welcomed the rising of the sun, and started a new day of breakfast, rehabilitation and room rounds early.
Instead of going to the ward, I went directly to the hospital restaurant, and started to help distribute meals in a familiar manner, and then escorted to different wards of the inpatient department with a cart. Here, he temporarily put down his identity as an "actor" and was just a volunteer carer, doing his part for the hospital.
Perhaps, supermarkets and hospitals are the only two places where Lan Li's heart can really calm down. Unlike a supermarket, a hospital is even more a place with complex emotions. The panic and rejection in the heart cannot resist ten years of familiarity and peace of mind. What's more, the lovely children of Mount Sinai Hospital are always able to order Bright his day.
When I came to Mount Sinai Hospital this time, Lan Li received this year's Christmas gift in advance: Alex Ricky was formally discharged from the hospital.
After the heart transplantation, he was hospitalized for observation for two months, and his physical recovery was very good. The doctor formally signed the discharge consent form, although Alex was in the next six months. Here, he still has to come back for review once a week, but at least, he can return to the world outside the hospital.
Recalling Annie Silliman, who was babbling and complaining about herself, she was very happy because of Alex’s health, but worried that Alex would forget all these little friends after Alex left; while talking about the hospital’s appearance again Alex will definitely like the new game, but on the one hand he is envious that Alex can go back to school and make more friends.
That chubby little face is sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes regretful, sometimes happy. The little guy who is not yet ten years old has already begun to mourn the spring and autumn. The appearance of a man and a big devil is really uncontrollable.
The light footsteps were inaudible in the corridor. Turning the corner, the sun-filled activity room appeared in front of him. After passing through the glass wall, Lan Li saw the figure of Heather Cross.
Heather in front of him looked a little strange. At first glance, Lan Li almost didn't recognize it.
Lan Li is not sure if it is her own illusion. Just like parents, when she sees the child again after a period of time, she always assumes that the child is thinner, but it is actually just a misunderstanding of memory and care. Maybe the child Not only did he lose weight but he became fat. But at this time, Lan Li could feel exactly that Heather seemed to have lost weight again.
The plump cheeks are slightly sunken, the luster remaining on the cheekbones seems to be brighter, the contour of the chin is slightly tightened, and the entire face is thinner in visual effect; but at this time, Heather's face But he was filled with a brilliant smile, his bright eyes were full of sunshine, the dots of brilliance were beautiful, and the whole body exuded a cheerful and happy atmosphere.
So... this is not a question of thinness, but a question of makeup techniques?
Lan Li was also a little unsure. He pushed open the door of the activity room. There were not only Heather but also a large group of children, but there was no hustle and bustle. The children sat cross-legged on the ground quietly, supporting them with both hands. With his small head, he looked at Heather who was playing the guitar intently.
Heather focused on the guitar in his hand. The fingers on the pillow with his left hand were still slightly stiff, but he was very skilled when switching chords. The slightly thin fingers were flying above the dark brown strings, golden The music of "Beast" flows out slowly, with the vision and ignorance of a girl, and with the jerky and immature of youth, a song of "wild beast" has evolved a different taste.
Lan Li knew for the first time that the song "The Beast" can be cautious, hopeful, eager, full of desire, ignorant, and tender. Yes, it can be reckless...
The heart with dreams was so full that it was swollen and a little painful, and it rammed in anxiously, excitedly and excitedly. The heavy force hit the chest with a faint pain, as if you could see the thin and slender figure, barefoot. Running wild across the wilderness, full of thorns and blood dripping, but the pace never slowed down, a black hair drifted in the wind, the firmness between the eyebrows never wavered in the storm, the stubborn smile was like a winter plum coming out of the ground , Facing the storm, bloom proudly.
"So we arrived, a lonely place that I can't go back to. You are the face that made me go through fire and water. This is the name that children will inherit, forging charm and crowning."
The poetic lyrics collided and bumped between the lips and teeth, full of the bitterness of tears and the smell of blood, but the smile at the corner of the mouth rose unyieldingly, like a ray of sunlight in the ruins of the apocalypse. Dirty, but beautiful; destruction, but hope. This is not Lanly's "beast", this is Heather's "beast", a melody that truly belongs to Heather.
"Ah...Ah..." Heather's tender and full voice followed the melody and hummed softly, dissipating in the air like a curl of green smoke, and the end of the song, with a lingering aftertaste.
"Papa." The applause broke the tranquility in the room. Heather looked up like a frightened bird, and then saw the Lan Li in front of him. The smile at the corner of his mouth could not help but became shy, cautious and nervous, but still pretending to be calm. He lifted her chin, "How's it going? Am I doing well?" Although the words were rhetorical with confidence, the blinking eyes revealed her true feelings at the moment.
"Excellent!" Lan Li didn't stingy with his compliments at all, the warm eyes are the best proof. The same song, under the interpretation of different singers, has different colors and interprets different emotions.
Just now, Lan Li deeply felt that "The Beast" might be a more suitable song for Heather. The story she told had nothing to do with Lan Li’s original creative intentions, but it was the reality of Heather staggering and chasing dreams. Portrayal. He liked the breezy bitterness of Heather's singing.
"Uh, the only thing. Should we cancel the word'F'?" Lan Li automatically silenced the word "Grass (F**K, which is a very important lyrics in "Beast" "So grass/your dream, how dare you forget our scars, I will be a beast for you", but this is vulgar language, it is really not appropriate for a group of underage children, let alone, the sea Se was also going to use this song to participate in "American Idol", and Lan Li couldn't help holding his forehead.
Heather understood it at once, grinned, and then put away his smile deliberately, with a stern face, "I think it's pretty good. The lyrics are so subtle and eye-catching, I think it's the whole song. The most important part of the song."
Lan Li was about to open his mouth, but a child next to him asked milkily, "Lan Li, what is the word'F'? Is it...is it'four'?" With that, he stretched out three times. With fingers gesturing like "four", his eyes widened, and he looked at Lan Li innocently and curiously.
Then another child said childishly~lightnovelpub.net~ fool, that's three, not four. "Then...there was no more. After the crooked building, everyone began to discuss the number of "three" and "four."
Heather looked at Lan Li with a gleeful look, as if saying, "Fortunately, you escaped." This made Lan Li spread his hands silently, walked over, and sat down next to Heather, "Look. You are ready to come. If I am a judge, I will let you pass. Hollywood is beckoning to you.” This is the audition of "American Idol".
"Really?" Heather's eyes widened, and he burst into excitement, "I am now considering whether to prepare an extra song to avoid the judges on the spot to let me play, but I was not prepared at all. That's terrible."
"Are there any alternates? I can refer to it." Lan Li immediately offered to help.
"Well, I thought about other options, "Believe it," "Go ahead," "Charlie Boy." In addition, do you think "a piece of nothingness" is suitable for a talent show?" Heather asked Lanly seriously. I started to point the wrench, but Lan Li was astonished: all the tracks are from "Don Quixote", this...
