Xiao Yao took a direct flight from Boston's Logan Airport to Las Vegas McCarran Airport, and there was no need to transfer in between. About six hours later, the plane landed at McCarran Airport in Las Vegas.

The passage on the plane was narrow, Xiao Yao's seat was by the window, and he was not in a hurry. After the passengers began to get off the plane, Xiao Yao didn't want to squeeze with others, so he sat in the seat for a while, deliberately waiting until there were fewer people before getting up.

"Hi~" When Xiao Yao passed by the first class cabin with his carry-on luggage, Nicky Thompson greeted Xiao Yao and stood up with his carry-on luggage.

"You haven't left yet?" Xiao Yao said with some surprise as he looked at Nicky Thompson.

First-class passengers have priority in boarding time, not in disembarkation time, but because the first-class cabin is basically at the front of the plane, closer to the aircraft door, and the first-class seats are relaxed, there is no crowding problem, so under normal circumstances, first-class passengers are also the first to get off the plane.

"I'm waiting for you!" Nicky Thompson laughed, "together?"

"Okay, you first!" Xiao Yao bent down slightly and made a gesture of please.

Although Nicky Thompson was waiting for him in front of him, Xiao Yao was a little surprised, but looking back, Nicky Thompson said that she came to Las Vegas for a vacation alone, and the two had a relatively pleasant contact at the airport in Boston, and now it is normal to wait for him to get off the plane and leave.

Both of them had checked luggage, and after getting off the plane, they turned to the baggage pick-up area to get their checked luggage, and then walked out of the exit of the passenger passage together.

At the exit, neither of them came to pick them up, which seems to confirm the statement that both of them came to Las Vegas alone for a vacation.

"Taxi?" Xiao Yao asked Nicky Thompson.

No one came to pick up the airport, and most of them didn't call a taxi to pick them up, so there was a high probability that they would take a taxi.

"Well," Nicky Thompson nodded and asked, "what about you?"

"Me too!" Xiao Yao said.

The two of them walked together to the taxi pick-up point.

"Where do you stay?" Nicky Thompson asked Xiao Yao as he walked, "Which hotel does it have reservations?"

"What do you want to do?" Xiao Yao said with a smile as he looked at Nicky Thompson. Pingshui just met, why did you still inquire about the residence?

"I wanted to know where you lived, and maybe I could hang out with you when I had a chance," said Nicky Thompson, "but I suddenly remembered that I didn't book a hotel, so I decided to stay in the same hotel with you, so that I could find you, and we could both take the same taxi, and one of us could save money!"

"Staying in the same hotel as Nicky Thompson?" Xiao Yao quickly weighed in his mind, and felt that this did not seem to be a very good idea.

Leaving aside the question of politeness, if Nicky Thompson makes up his mind to stay in a hotel with him, he can call a taxi to follow him. Now the two are standing together in line, and there are many taxis outside the airport, and the departure times are very close to each other, so they are basically not likely to lose them. The hotel is not owned by the family, and it is impossible to ask someone to refuse to accept Nicky Thompson.

Xiao Yao did not respond to Nicky Thompson, took out a pair of sunglasses from his bag and put them on.

"Hmm, what are you doing?" said Nicky Thompson, looking at Xiao Yao strangely.

On this big night, I didn't wear sunglasses in the brightly lit airport, why did I wear sunglasses when I got to the taxi queue that was a little dimmed?

"Oh~Oh my God!" Xiao Yao exclaimed exaggeratedly.

"Huh?" Nicky Thompson was startled and looked at Xiao Yao in bewilderment.

The two are now queuing at the taxi pick-up area. Xiao Yao suddenly screamed like this, which also attracted the attention of others in front of and behind the team, and looked at Xiao Yao with a little dissatisfaction and curiosity.

"Are you Nicky Thompson? that superstar?" Xiao Yao said to Nicky Thompson excitedly, "I didn't expect to meet a superstar here! I'm so lucky! I'm your fan, can you sign me? No, can you take a picture with you?"

"Huh?" Nicky Thompson was dumbfounded.

"What?Nicky Thompson?" the people in the queue were stunned for a moment, and they all stared at Nicky Thompson.

Although the light in the taxi queue is not as bright as in the airport lobby, the light outside the airport is not particularly dim. Although Nicky Thompson wears sunglasses, when Xiao Yao calls out the two suggestive words of name and superstar, people can still tell that this blonde woman is indeed very similar to Nicky Thompson.

"Oh my God, Nicky Thompson is here!" shouted many in the group as they gathered around the two of them.

"Miss Thompson, can I take a picture with you?" Several young men pushed Xiao Yao aside, picked up his phone and leaned over to Nicky Thompson.

They heard Xiao Yao say that he wanted to take a photo with Nicky Thompson, thinking that this young man with East Asian looks was an ordinary traveler like them, and he was a fan of Nicky Thompson, even if they noticed that the two came together, they thought that the two were just on the same road, and could not be members of Nicky Thompson's team, so they did not hesitate to squeeze Xiao Yao aside.

Xiao Yao was squeezed by others, and retreated to the periphery.

The flight time from Boston to Las Vegas is about six hours, but the United States does not use the same time like Huaxia, but uses different times according to the region, of which the difference between the eastern time and the western time of the mainland is three hours, so when the plane lands in Las Vegas, it is only less than ten o'clock in the evening local time. Although Xiao Yao deliberately delayed for a while when he got off the plane, the passengers were in a hurry to get off the plane, it was not long, and now the two of them walked to the taxi queue at about half past ten in the evening local time.

Las Vegas is a famous city that never sleeps, half past ten in the evening is not late, the airport is still very busy, and there are many people waiting in line for taxis here. As soon as Xiao Yao and Nicky Thompson shouted, the entire queue waiting for a taxi was alarmed, and more and more people surrounded the two.

"I'm going, it's so popular!" Xiao Yao looked at the crowd surrounding Nicky Thompson, and was also startled.

Xiao Yao originally wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, but when he saw so many people surrounding Nicky Thompson, he couldn't help but worry about Nicky Thompson's safety, and he regretted it a little.

Of course, it is not Xiao Yao's consideration to squeeze in to Nicky Thompson at this time. Let's not say that I can't squeeze in alone, even if I get in, the role of one person is also very limited.

Xiao Yao looked up and found that there was no airport security guard in the taxi queue, only a few uniformed security guards standing at the door of the airport hall not far away, so he picked up his suitcase and ran to the door of the airport hall.

"Over there, in the taxi line, superstar Nicky Thompson was spotted and fenced up!" Xiao Yao said as he rushed to a man in a security uniform.

"Huh, superstar, Nicky Thompson?" the security guard froze.

"Yes, superstar Nicky Thompson," Xiao Yao said, "she's alone, no assistants, no bodyguards, there are a lot of people there, everyone is excited, I think there may be an accident!"

"**~" The security guard understood, cursed in his mouth, and immediately beckoned the two security guards not far away to run over there together, and said something while pressing the walkie-talkie on his shoulder.

Seeing several security guards squeezing into the crowd with great difficulty, Xiao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and then dragged his suitcase to the taxi queue again.

Nicky Thompson's location is where the taxi queue is located, and a crowd of people has seriously affected the order of the queue there. In this case, Xiao Yao feels that security is nothing more than two choices. The first was to get Nicky Thompson in line and arrange a taxi for Nicky Thompson to go first. The second is to protect Nicky Thompson as he moves somewhere else.

As Xiao Yao walked to the taxi line, he noticed that the crowd around Nicky Thompson had begun to move slowly, and it seemed that the security guard had chosen the latter.

Although Nicky Thompson was surrounded by the crowd and was unlikely to see Xiao Yao outside, Xiao Yao still kept his head down very low-key, and even took a slight detour to bypass the crowd surrounding Nicky Thompson.

Since many people were attracted to Nicky Thompson and went along, there were far fewer people in line for a taxi. Although Xiao Yao had to queue up again after he came back, there were not as many people in front of him as as just now. It didn't take long for Xiao Yao to get a taxi and go to the hotel where he was going to stay.

The hotel where Xiao Yao is going to stay is called Caesars Palace, which is a very famous hotel with a casino in Las Vegas. This hotel was recommended by Yan Ke's card counting team. They had been to Las Vegas before and were very familiar with the hotels and casinos here. The 21 o'clock table in the casino of Caesars Palace Hotel did not use a snail card machine, which was the first casino that Yan Ke recommended Xiao Yao to go to. Xiao Yao went to the casino, but since it is a casino in the hotel, you can stay, for convenience, Xiao Yao naturally chose this hotel.

Caesars Palace Hotel is located right in the heart of Las Vegas, and the McCarran Airport in Las Vegas is located in Parades, about 8 kilometers from the city center, which is not very far. Ten minutes later, Xiao Yao arrived at the Caesars Palace Hotel.

After checking in and entering his room, Xiao Yao gave a tip to the bellman who helped him carry his luggage to the room, and was about to sort out his luggage when the phone on his body rang.

Xiao Yao took out his mobile phone and glanced at it, smiled proudly, and pressed the answer button.

"Shaw, where are you?" As soon as the phone was connected, Nicky Thompson's slightly anxious voice came from inside, "Are you alright?"

Hearing that Nicky Thompson cared about his safety, Xiao Yao felt a trace of guilt in his heart, put away his smile, and said, "I'm fine, are you okay?"

"It's okay, the security escorted me to the VIP lounge at the airport. Nicky Thompson said, "Where are you now?"

"Me?" Xiao Yao laughed again when he heard that Nicky Thompson was okay, "I'm already in the hotel now." ”

"What? You've arrived at the hotel?" surprised Nicky Thompson.

"That's right!" Xiao Yao said, "You are surrounded by so many people, obviously you can't leave for a short time, do I have to wait for you outside the airport all the time?"

"Which hotel are you staying in?" asked Nicky Thompson, "and I contacted the hotel to send a car to pick me up at the airport." ”

Many hotels have airport transfers. Nicky Thompson used to be low-key, and he didn't book a hotel in advance, so he naturally didn't call the hotel pick-up service, but now that he is recognized, the taxi is not easy to take, so he simply booked the hotel first and asked the hotel to send a car to pick her up at the airport.

"What? you still want to stay in a hotel with me?" Xiao Yao said helplessly, "Nicky, you are a superstar, I am just an ordinary person, we are not one world." Do you think I'll have a good time with you?"

"Why not? The hotel can keep it a secret for me!" Nicky Thompson said, suddenly raising a pitch, "Wait, why aren't you surprised when you know I'm a star? No, you're surprised, in the queue, no, your surprise was performed! Oh my God! You did it on purpose! You knew I was a star, didn't you? When did you think of it on a plane?"

"I'll go! I'll just react now!" Xiao Yao complained in his heart.

"Hey, I live in a motel on the outskirts of the city, and the signal here is not very good," Xiao Yao raised his phone away from himself and said, hey, hey..."

After a few "hey", Xiao Yao hung up the phone decisively.

Xiao Yao was just about to put down the phone, and the phone in his hand rang again. When I looked at the caller ID on the phone screen, I realized that it was Nicky Thompson calling again.

"I'll go, it's not over!" Xiao Yao decisively pressed the button to hang up, and then the other party's number was included in the rejection list.

"Bastard!" On the other side, Nicky Thompson, who was still stranded in the airport VIP room, heard the voice coming from the phone, and was so angry that he raised the phone in his hand and wanted to smash it on the ground. However, Nicky Thompson just wanted to smash it, and after a two-second pause, he put down his hand holding the phone.

Even if Nicky Thompson is rich, he doesn't feel distressed when he smashes his mobile phone, and he doesn't bother to change his mobile phone, but now that people are still at the airport, mobile phones are indispensable for external contact.

"Liar! bastard!" Nicky Thompson said, clutching his phone, gritting his teeth.

At this time, a young woman in a suit and uniform walked in and said to Nicky Thompson, "Hello, Miss Thompson! My name is Diana Baker, and I'm the customer service manager at the airport. ”

"Hello," Nicky Thompson said apologetically, shaking the woman's hand, "I'm sorry! I'm traveling privately, not on business, so I didn't bring an assistant or bodyguard, and I didn't notify the airport in advance." I've tried to keep a low profile, but I didn't expect to be recognized, and I didn't mean to cause trouble for you. ”

"It doesn't matter. The customer service manager smiled and continued, "There are still some people waiting for you outside." I don't know what Miss Thompson is going to do, do you need us to arrange a vehicle to get you away?"

"I don't need a car!" said Nicky Thompson, "I'll contact the hotel now and ask them to send a car to pick me up." It's just that when you go out later, I have to trouble you to send some security personnel to help maintain order!"

"No problem!" the customer service manager nodded.

At this time, Nicky Thompson's mobile phone rang.

"Excuse me, take the phone!" Nicky Thompson said to the customer service manager.

"Please!" the customer service manager gestured, "Shall I go out for a while?"

"No!" Nicky Thompson waved his hand, took two steps to the side, and picked up the phone.

It's polite to avoid other people's calls, but the VIP room is not small, and unless it's a particularly secret call, you don't need to avoid the door. The customer service manager's task was to come over and accompany Nicky Thompson, and he couldn't go back to his office, and he didn't want to go outside to stand stupidly, so he just took two steps back and stood near the door.

"Matt, did you find anything?" said Nicky Thompson.

The caller was a man named Matt. Before the Boston plane took off, Nicky Thompson called him to help investigate Xiao Yao.

"I asked someone to help me check, and there is no photographer in Huaxia whose work is signed by yaoxiao!" said Matt on the other side of the phone.

"What? no," Nicky Thompson wondered, "are you sure?"

"I'm sure!" said the man on the other end of the line, Matt, "maybe, but it's certainly not very famous!"

"He told me that I could travel all over the world with my income as a photographer, and I couldn't be famous!" said Nicky Thompson, "So he was lying to me?"

"Wait!" Matt said, "I'm just saying that Huaxia doesn't have a well-known photographer named yaoxiao!"

"What do you mean?" asked Nicky Thompson.

"You said you're looking for a Huaxia man?" Matt asked.

"Yes," said Nicky Thompson, "he said he was from China and a photographer by profession!"

"According to the custom of the Chinese people, the surname is in front and the first name is in the back. Matt said, "If the name that person tells you is according to the English name convention, then the Chinese name of that Huaxia person should be xiaoyao!"

"xiaoyao?" repeated Nicky Thompson, then continued, "So what?"

"So," Matt said, "a friend of Huaxia told me that Xiaoyao is a superstar in Huaxia!"

"Superstar?" said Nicky Thompson curiously, "a photographer?"

Photographers are behind-the-scenes workers, and no matter how famous they are in the industry, their visibility among the public is limited. The so-called superstars are generally acting stars or sports stars, and photographers are not called superstars, and there are none in the United States, let alone China.

"He's not just a photographer," says Matt, "he's an actor, director, screenwriter, filmmaker, music producer, singer, musician, music creator, so to speak!"

"So many?" said Nicky Thompson, "it seems that the United States can't find such a star, right?

"Absolutely, and he's a world-class star, and he's very well-known in the U.S. and Europe. "A lot of Americans know him, because he's done a lot of incredible things in the United States, and he's been on the news in the U.S. many times, including entertainment news and social news." ”

"A world-class star, also very famous in the United States?, actor, singer, producer..."Nicky Thompson muttered, suddenly remembering a person, and said in surprise, "Is it?"

"Yes!" Matt laughed, "Jan Shaw, a member of the band Immortals, a guest performer of The Eva Show, a member and guest performer of the All-Star Celebrity Game, a robot Wale, a parkour boy, a New York airport hijacking, a kidnapping at New York Fashion Week, that's that Jan Xiao! His Chinese name is xiaoyao, and according to English custom, yaoxiao." ”

"It's him!" said Nicky Thompson, feeling dizzy.

After the shock, Nicky Thompson's next emotion was extreme unhappiness.

Finding out that Xiao Yao has been lying to himself has made Nicky Thompson very unhappy, and now that he knows that Xiao Yao is also a star, the unhappiness that Nicky Thompson has just suppressed in his heart has not only resurfaced, but also more than doubled.

Not only did he know that I was a star but he kept pretending not to know, but he also kept hiding his star identity and lied to me that he was an ordinary person. He lied to me on both things, and I'm a double idiot!"

"Liar! bastard!" Nicky Thompson couldn't help but curse again.
