Chapter 51: In the Dark
Why didn't Shuai Ge accompany Lou Shang down by himself, or let someone send a bowl of oatmeal porridge to him?
He could have done that, but he didn't.
Shuai Ge knew very well that at this time, if the porridge was brought to the room by himself or by someone else, Lou Shang would not necessarily eat it.
But if it was the owner of the Lochindaal Hotel who personally brought it to him.
With the character that Lou Shang has cultivated since childhood, it is absolutely impossible to refuse.
Shuai Ge didn't ask Lou Shang what happened, because as soon as he entered the door, he found the old newspaper in Lou Shang's hand.
Shuai Ge knew that there must be news of Lou Shang's mother's death, and Lou Shang had already said it just now.
More than ten years ago, if Lou Shang could find any conclusive evidence, it would definitely be on the old newspaper he was holding onto.
Then the reason why I can't recognize my sister must be in these newspapers.
Shuai Ge has been a talk show anchor for so many years, and he is afraid that he will say something that he shouldn't say when he is excited.
In the final analysis, in Shuai Ge's heart, it has obviously been confirmed, and it is a very hypocritical thing to say that you can't recognize each other.
It's just that Shuai Ge didn't say this sentence directly from the bottom of his heart.
After getting along for so many years, Lou Shang has never said that he can't handle it by himself.
Combined with Lou Shang's state at this time, Shuai Ge knew that there must be something that could not be crossed.
Shuai Ge very rarely put away the usual aggression in his language.
This is also the reason why he was worried from the beginning and wanted to come with Lou Shang.
For a long time, a heavyweight agent like Fat Geton naturally took care of everything in an orderly manner without waiting for the artist to speak.
Shuai Ge quickly turned to the news pictures of the murder 19 years ago.
It didn't take much effort to figure out the ins and outs of the matter.
Lou Shangxing rushed to Islay Island to find "corroboration", he wanted to convince Lou Xia that the connection between him and her, he wanted to help Lou Xia retrieve his childhood memories, but he found such a cruel truth at once.
Don't talk about Lou Shang, even Shuai Ge wanted to collapse a little after reading the news.
Things aren't complicated, but the plot is a bit surreal.
Such a plot seems to be a bit unsuitable for real life.
But Shuai Ge has said so many jokes, and he also knows that life itself is often more "exciting" than TV series.
How can he help Lou Shang deal with this matter?
Of course, Shuai Ge can put all the facts in front of the fifth summer.
Then said: See, this is you when you were a child, this dead person is your mother, don't deny it, Lou Shang is your brother, he has been looking for you for many years, you should recognize him.
This is the fastest and most straightforward way to solve the problem.
But Shuai Ge knew that if he really did this, Lou Shang would definitely never forgive him for the rest of his life.
Even himself, he will feel that this is detrimental to his glorious image of the handsome earth.
So, what else can be done?
A second ago, Shuai Ge was still full of confidence, saying that he would definitely be able to help Lou Shang settle down, but at this second, there was no way out.
If it weren't for being too fat to sit cross-legged, Shuai Ge would want to meditate and think slowly in the room, anyway, there would still be time.
Shuai Ge also took it for granted as Jerónimis.
Time, it's not that he thinks there is, there will be.
Lou Shang had just sat down on the first floor, and Lou Xia had come to Lochindaal.
This place, not only provides accommodation, but is also a restaurant and bar frequented by Port Charlotte locals.
The reason why Fifth Summer is in such a hurry to return to Islay is not only to say goodbye to the past, but also to discuss a new label design with the independent whisky bottler she often works with today.
After drinking all day yesterday, the fifth summer finally got a little drunk and slept directly in the cellar.
Fifth, as long as he drank until he fell asleep, he could forget some things that were unpleasant to him.
It's not as good as the car accident scene when he and Lou Shang met for the first time.
Under the watering of 96 degrees of water of life, as soon as he woke up, the fifth summer was not so resistant to Lou Shang.
As soon as they met, they said that Fifth Summer looked like his mother.
This sentence, if it is used for pick-up, it is definitely a phenomenon of serial car accidents.
Lou Shang is talking about his own mother, which in the eyes of Fifth Xia, is a thing that has nothing to do with her.
After that, the series that made Fifth Xia even more difficult to accept, recalling the past behavior, was also talking about himself.
Fifth, Xia doesn't have the habit of caring about other people's affairs.
So when she woke up, she was relieved.
This time, it's the same.
When I woke up in the abandoned whisky warehouse of the Brunschweig Distillery, Fifth Summer was as normal as if I had never read a letter from Hieronis.
The same coldness as before, the same expressionless face.
Just read the beginning of a letter and throw it aside, how big of a deal can that be?
No one could tell from Fifth Summer's face what she had been through the day before.
Lochindaal has a super rich human pyrotechnic atmosphere.
Locals often have small gatherings at the hotel's restaurants and bars.
If you prefer a quiet and modern environment, this hotel is very unsuitable.
Drag a big box in and go to the guest room on the second floor, and there won't even be an elevator and someone to help.
Which is suitable for those who want the most authentic feeling of a whisky town hotel in the 19th century, or just like Lou Shang, who simply wants the fireworks of the world.
There is a window facing the bar in the restaurant where the restaurant is still sitting, so you can clearly see the people sitting at the bar drinking, but the people sitting at the bar usually don't forget to look inside the restaurant.
It's still early, it's not time to eat and drink in the evening, and there are no people in the restaurants and bars.
The independent bottler ordered two glasses of the Collector's Edition 1979 Macallan Single Malt from Speyside in the Scottish Highlands for the fifth summer.
Lou Shang sat at the dining table eating oatmeal, and at a glance saw Lou Xia, who had come in and walked straight to the bar, sitting in the vacant seat next to a blonde muscular man with blue eyes and tattoos, and not saying anything Lou Shang couldn't hear.
The fifth summer of health punk seems to be a bit versatile, whether it is with literature and art, or with muscular men, there is no sense of disobedience.
Lou Shang's oatmeal porridge only drank two sips, and sat in the dining room like a sculpture, without even putting down the spoon, just hanging his hands, not up or down.
Because Shuai Ge rushed over, his mood that had stabilized a little bit was completely shattered the moment he saw the fifth summer.
Everyone in the world says that the dumped brother has no desires and no desire and does not eat fireworks in the world, only Lou Shang himself knows how much he longs for and covets fireworks in the world.
Lou Shang couldn't control it at all, and wanted to go up directly and embrace Lou Xia's impulse.
But how could he explain it?
How can he not have a new car accident ready-made?
Through a glass window, Lou Shang's eyes, like the fixed camera position of a video camera, stared motionless at Fifth Xia.
Lou Shang chose the spoon in mid-air, and watched the whole process of communication between Fifth Xia and the independent bottler, and he didn't notice anything wrong with his hand hanging so much.
Perhaps, Lou Shang hopes that time can freeze at this moment, and he can always look at his sister.
But he was afraid that time would really freeze.
In his heart, he loves to laugh so much, so warm, and every word is the light of positive energy, why does he seem to have forgotten even what laughter is.
No matter whether the man with muscle tattoos is smiling forward and backwards, or raising his thumbs to praise, Lou Xia is the same expressionless.
The "richness" of expressions is comparable to that of robots.
The energy in this world is conserved, and when you keep staring at a person, there may be an energy transmitted from the eyes for the person being watched.
Fifth Summer, as she left Lochindaal, turned her head and glanced in the direction of the window.
She was about to walk to the door, turned back, held up her phone, took a picture of the place where she had just sit, and then turned to leave.
…………………………
"What are you doing here? When you're so big, you can't even drink porridge? Do you have to wait for Ben Shuai to feed you?"
Shuai Ge has always been not very worried about Lou Shang, whether he has thought of a solution or not, he has to come down and take a look first: "A good person, and you haven't met Medusa staring at you, how can it be so easy to become a stone statue?"
Fat Ge Ton used his round and full right hand to the extreme, and pressed Lou Shang's hand hanging in mid-air into the bowl of oatmeal.
"Shuai Ge, I saw Lou Xia. ”
"You don't have a fever, what nonsense are you talking about, hurry up, drink the porridge. ”
"I'm serious, Lou Xia seems to have seen me too. Lou Shang put down the dishes.
Lou Shang was very sure that he saw Lou Xia, but his feet were like lead, and he couldn't move at all.
What kind of identity does he want to use, what kind of opening statement does he want to find Lou Xia?
"You sit down for me, what are you crazy about in broad daylight? If you can meet it so casually, you still have to look for so many years?"
"Shuai Ge, I really saw Lou Xia. She was with a tattooed man. Lou Shang's eyes, from trance to clarity, he quickly found a reason to go to see Fifth Xia: "The tattooed muscular man doesn't look like a good person, Lou Xia will be in danger, she will definitely need help, right?"
Not from the help of the elder brother, just from the sense of responsibility of being in a foreign country, from the same Chinese.
That should make easy sense, right?
Lou Shang jumped up from his seat.
"Okay, okay, you saw it. You've all come to Islay, and if your sister is really in Port Charlotte, you're still afraid that you'll lose it? You don't look at yourself now, who are you going out to scare who?"
Shuai Ge pressed Lou Shang back to his seat: "Ben Shuai went out to help you take a look, if you can really see a back or something, Ben Shuai will call and ask Mr. Wen if his sister's best friend has returned to Scotland." ”
Shuai Ge didn't quite believe that Lou Shang really saw Lou Xia.
Not long after he came in, he also went downstairs to learn about Lou Shang's situation with the hotel owner.
At that time, there was indeed a muscular man sitting at the bar, but there was absolutely no Lou Xia in Lou Shang's mouth, and there was not even a woman at all.
Seeing Lou Shang's appearance at the moment, Shuai Ge finally had no way to do nothing.
On the way from the restaurant to the door, Shuai Ge heard the huge engine flourishing.
Shuai Ge saw the dangerous tattooed man described in Lou Shang's mouth at the door, drove a super cool Dodge Tomahawk V10 motorcycle, and disappeared like the wind at the end of the road.
There was a man sitting on the motorcycle.
Once again, it was determined that Lou Shang must have wanted to recognize his sister so much that he hallucinated.
But in the next second, Shuai Ge saw a girl in a tight motorcycle suit, with her back against the corner of the hotel, stepping on the wall with one foot, and typing a message into her mobile phone.
In the next second, Fifth Summer disappeared around the corner.
Shuai Ge has only seen the fifth summer once, but that kind of ice-like aura is definitely unforgettable.
According to Fat Ge Ton's violent temper, he must have gone straight over, stopped Fifth Xia, and then said that someone in the restaurant wanted to see her.
However, he is not the first anchor now, but the most handsome and responsible agent on the planet.
His current duty is to help the dumped brother solve the problem, not to create trouble for him.
Shuai Ge can hold down Lou Shang for a while, but he can't hold down Lou Shang's worries.
In less than five seconds, Lou Shang followed to the door.
Lou Shang looked around at the empty road, and with the disappointment of finding nothing, he looked at his partner: "Shuai Ge, did you see her?"
Ben Shuai saw a muscular man, alone, driving a noisy motorcycle and leaving. There's not even a shadow of a woman, you're your sister. Fat Ge Ton casually told a lie without a trace.
The muscular man and the fifth summer walked separately, and there was no safety problem that Lou Shang was worried about.
Fat Ge Ton was very angry, he was angry with himself, angry with his super-large capacity brain, why did he not think of a perfect solution yet.
Fortunately, he still has enough time to seriously think of a good way to get the best of both worlds.
"Impossible, Lou Xia must have been here. In the dark, I should meet my sister at this time. Shuaige, I missed so many years of her growth, and I can't miss every day of her future. ”
"When I went back, I called the police and arrested the cultural ambassador. Since you are going to come out, go to the hospital with me and ask the doctor to give you a disability evaluation. Seeing that Lou still had no intention of going back, Shuai Ge simply pulled him out.
Hearing that Shuai Ge was angry with literature and art, Lou Shang calmed down a little.
Was it really his hallucination?
Is it because he misses Lou Xia too much, so he has the sequelae of fever?
"Let's go back. "After so many years of being away from the world, Lou Shang learned the best thing about suppressing the desires in his heart.
It is precisely because of so many years of desirelessness and lack of desire that fans will equate the dumped brother with the fireworks that do not eat the world.
Fifth Xia appeared in the corner of the hotel again at the moment when Lou Shang turned around.
