New York in the middle of the night is a different scene, the old subway cars clang, messy graffiti, dirty stains, worn seats, occasionally exposed circuits and lights that suddenly turn off at a moment, shuttling through a hundred years of time and space, walking in this dark and narrow tunnel, precipitating the power of time, recording the history that people do not know.

Leaving the hustle and bustle of Manhattan, the subway carries most of the people in the carriage towards another world, from heaven to hell, from prosperity to decadence, the bizarre scene is reflected on the numb and sluggish faces, as if the "detachment" of this movie, on the surface it looks calm, but deep down it has been vicissitudes. Looking at the hazy light that occasionally leaked in through the window, Lan Li had the illusion of shooting an epic blockbuster.

During this time, Lan Li did not live in his apartment in the lower city, but lived in a rental house in the Bronx, which is just a street away from Henry's rental house in the movie, and he can walk to work every day, surrounded by prostitutes/women, addicts/gentlemen, drunkards and vagrants, like a chaotic bottomless abyss, but extremely real.

Lan Li wanted to keep herself in the state of performance, but also wanted to get a better feel for the daily life of the Bronx and really immerse herself in the whole story.

Sitting in the subway is quite interesting, and occasionally you can hear someone talking about "Fast and Thrill/Emotion 5", of course, not all good words, some people scold, and some people relish. But they never knew that the person they were talking about was sitting in the subway, just a step away from them.

For Lan Li, leaving the camera lens and leaving the screen, then he is an ordinary person, an ordinary young man, and he doesn't think he has anything special. Occasionally go to the bar with friends for a drink, then discuss your favorite nasty movie with a stranger, think about what you should do on your next vacation, or take a lazy nap until you wake up naturally. At least the last time he confirmed, he didn't have superpowers, and it was useless to wear his underwear outside.

When she arrived at the station, Lan Li walked down briskly and left the subway station with the crowd. The cold wind outside blew, and I couldn't help but shiver, and the alcohol was a little on my brain. Originally, he said that he had one bottle of beer, but in the end it was three bottles of beer and a glass of whiskey, and Lan Li knew that this was not the original plan, but he did not regret it.

The brain is actually very clear, but when the steps are a little light, I walked deep and shallow towards my temporary apartment. There are indeed a lot of homeless people on this street, but Lan Li is already familiar with the road, and his simple and down-to-earth appearance makes people have no interest in robbing, and he returned to the apartment all the way without incident.

It's said to be an apartment, but it's actually a single room, and there is nothing except a mattress and a desk. Even if someone breaks down the door, they can't find anything to steal. Therefore, seeing the light revealed under the crack in the door, Lan Li didn't care, didn't take out the key, just tried to twist the doorknob, and sure enough, the thin wooden door was pushed open directly.

Pushing open the door, the narrow room was clear at a glance, and then I saw three people curled up on the mattress, the crowded posture looked like the victims trapped in the ice cave in winter, had to hug each other to keep warm, but the fact is that the three of them were sweating profusely at this time, and they looked embarrassed and embarrassed.

Lan Li was immediately happy, and chuckled, "What's the matter with the three of you? I remember there was a chair?" One person sat on a chair, two people sat on a mattress, and I didn't know it was so crowded. "And the electric fan, why don't you turn it on?"

There is no air conditioning in this rental house, and although it is already August, the heat is still not in style, and the temperature outside at night has plummeted, but it is inevitable that there is some stuffiness inside. The three of them were huddled together, naturally sweating profusely, as if they had just been fished out of the water.

Raising his head and looking at the refreshing Lan Li, Roy Lockley rolled his eyes angrily, but Andy Rogers was good-tempered, took out a handkerchief and kept wiping the sweat from his forehead, and finally Nathan Preece explained, "The electric fan is broken, and the chair can't be found." ”

The two dry sentences were explained clearly, but looking at the plight of the three people, Lan Li smiled even more happily.

Staggered to the window, opened the curtains, opened the window, "You can sit at the table, you can sit on the floor, you can open the window to breathe, if not, there is beer in the refrigerator, and there are ice cubes, you look like you are in a sauna." ”

"Lan Li, you better go back to live in the city. It was Andy who spoke, and he persuaded seriously, "Anyway, now that the filming of the movie is nearing completion, I asked Tony, and it will be completed in two weeks at most." It doesn't make much sense to stay here, it's not convenient or safe to live here. ”

Roy tugged at the button of his shirt and said straight to the point, "I've tried to persuade him several times, but he won't listen." I thought you knew him better than I did. ”

Open the refrigerator, the beer has been drunk, even the ice has been exhausted, obviously, without the help of a certain brother, Lan Li completely forgot about going to the supermarket to restock, and then walked into the bathroom, found the round stool that had been forgotten here, moved out, looked at Nathan's stunned expression, Lan Li "shh Finally, he found a few newspapers and magazines from the cupboard and threw them on the floor next to the mattress, signaling that they could spread them out and sit on the floor.

"I heard gunshots and curses outside, and there seemed to be something going on in the next room, and the sound of a fight could be faintly heard. Nathan opened his mouth to answer Lan Li's puzzle - why the three of them would rather curl up in a ball, sweating profusely from the heat, than open the window, "I haven't heard the siren for a long time, you say, should we call the police?"

"Gunshots?" Lan Li thought for a moment, "Is it a burst, with a short interval in between, but not necessarily the time, and then the cursing is the level of black foul language?" Nathan nodded in affirmation, Lan Li suddenly realized, and waved his hand, "The thugs on the street next to him are beating beer cans." Sometimes, sometimes every night for several days in a row, sometimes there is no movement at all. Looks like there's going on again tonight. ”

Lan Li's understated words made the three people in front of him stunned, but he was undecided, "As for the next door, it is a femdom queen of the character 'S', who has a job every night, and has specially greeted me before." After a pause, Lan Li seriously recalled, "I remember mentioning it to you before, this is an interesting story." ”

Nathan's mouth was wide open, laughing worse than crying, and he shook his head, showing his innocence.

"Oh. That's forgetting to say it. Lan Li shook his head nonchalantly, and then looked at the three people in front of him who were sweating profusely, "Do you need to make a pot of coffee for you?"

Andy and Roy looked at each other, but saw similar emotions in each other's eyes: stunned, helpless, ridiculous, and smiling.

Before this, the two of them had passed through many phone calls, and it was not a relationship that they didn't know each other at all, but today was the first official meeting between Lanli's agent and manager, and it was still a little strange after all. However, at this moment, the two seem to be sympathetic to each other and have found a common language.

In fact, they all persuaded Lan Li that it was too dangerous to live here, and it could almost be said that it was frightening, but Lan Li insisted on going his own way, and they expected Nathan to live with Lan Li, at least next door, so that they could take care of each other, but Lan Li firmly refused, saying that he had to maintain the same life as Henry.

Andy and Roy can be said to be veteran social figures who have experienced a lot of battles, and they also have a clear understanding of the dark side of society. But even Roy's living conditions are not good, and the environment in the neighborhood where he lives is not so bad, let alone Andy. Suddenly entering such a dangerous and panicked neighborhood, the instinct to survive inevitably prevailed.

Lan Li remembered the first night he had become a homeless man, like a frightened bird. The reaction of the three is not unusual.

Seeing that Lan Li was busy with all the things, and finally sat directly on the floor on the newspaper spread out next to the mattress, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Lan Li's steps were a little unsteady, but his expression was very calm.

Roy, who was sitting on a round stool, could finally stretch Andy, who was chubby on the mattress, exchanged glances again, and a trace of puzzlement flashed in his eyes:

The usual Lan Li has always been elegant and calm, and he acts magnificently, even fans affectionately call him "Young Master", not to mention their close partners. They all speculated that even if Lan Li was not from a wealthy family, at least he received a good higher education, and might even be a scholarly family.

So, why is the elegant Lan Li so calm when she adapts to grassroots life? She doesn't even have the slightest discomfort? Is it really too deep into the play? But during the filming of the "detachment" play, Lan Li did not show any signs of such madness, how can this be explained?

One is an agent, the other is a manager, and to some extent, these are the two people Lan Li trusts the most in Hollywood. But both of them felt that there seemed to be more and more mysteries hidden in Lan Li's body, and they couldn't be sure whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. Should be...... Good thing, right?

Looking at his watch, Lan Li took the initiative to break the silence in the room, "What's the matter, what's the matter, you guys rushed over? There are still thirty minutes, and I will rest." ”

"You've had a drink tonight, do you need to sober up?" Roy could tell that Lan Li's state was slightly different tonight.

Lan Li showed a big smile and waved his hand nonchalantly, "That's good, it's not even slightly drunk." "It's actually good to enjoy this moment of drunkenness once in a while, like a fish jumping out of the water. Although Lan Li still misses the sea and sky outdoors even more, he begins to miss surfing.
