The white shirt and black suit, obedient and meticulously ironed out of the shoulder line and waistline, every position of the cuffs, neckline, and trouser tube are not deviated in the slightest, perfectly showing the order and rules; even in the hot summer and August, the Windsor bow tie is still not loose at all, and the details leak out of the square scarf, pocket watch, handkerchief to form a faint echo, the noble and elegant of the nobility is invisibly revealed.

A complete and strict style of dressing may seem out of place in everyday life, but in New Orleans, there is an innate fit and harmony, because this is a city that respects tradition and heritage, and because it is a city that celebrates gentlemen and manners, when the night party is unveiled, a suit and shirt is a respectful ritual, not to mention when it comes to jazz music.

Being here, there is a faint sense of naturalness, but there is a faint taste of a sense of alienation, perhaps from the introverted and low-key inherited by the hereditary aristocracy of Europe, which can no longer be found in New Orleans after three centuries of evolution and integration.

Appearing at the door of the arrivals hall at New Orleans Airport was none other than the Hall housekeeper, Philip Demba.

Seeming to perceive the bustling gaze, the scorching and urgent projection, Philip Demba waited for Lan Li to surpass his position, and then politely bowed slightly to the crew members to express his greetings, and then turned around, bypassing Lan Li's walking route by speeding up his cadence and stride length, and took the lead to the car, opened the door for Lan Li, waited for Lan Li to get into the car, and then made a detour from the rear of the car to the driver's seat, seemingly unhurried movements were clean and neat, Get the job done quickly and quickly, and get away with it.

The members of the crew of "Jurassic World" reluctantly took their eyes back, and whispered that their bearing and aura were really different.

Usually, Lan Li is also a high-ranking figure, and he is also an absolute top existence in the world, which is a sense of oppression for the crew members, and the sense of estrangement when he returns to the crew after the end of the "Interstellar" publicity is the best proof, but no matter what, Lan Li is still an actor, in short, he is still a part of Hollywood, and they are in the same field.

Today, Lan Li has evolved into a character from another world, and the insurmountable sense of distance has instantly switched to another mode, unattainable, amazed and curious, and even unable to produce any sense of identity, looking at each other and can't help but have a kind of self-sigh: I can't believe that I have worked with such a character for so long.

"Oh...... I now finally understand why everyone was so shocked and surprised when the magazine broke the news that Lan Li was a hereditary nobleman. ”

Nick Robinson's exclamation that seemed to understand or not made the crew members all wonder and exchanged glances with each other, and then Nick asked a question again, "You said, other people saw Lan Li...... Uh, at times like this, are you just as shocked as we are, speechless?"

“…… How could we be so shocked that we couldn't speak?" Colin tried to retort, then turned his head for backup, hoping that the others would make a sound.

But...... There was silence, and then Colin could only scratch his head and say nothing more.

"Wait, was that Bentley just now?"

At this time, Lan Li, who was sitting in the black Bentley, twisted his shoulders slightly, so that the tense muscles could relax, and the whole movement was a little big, even if he didn't look up and didn't look at each other, Lan Li could also feel the condemning gaze projected by Philip from the rearview mirror.

"I've just had a long flight and it's okay to relax a little now. What's more, it's just you, isn't it?"

In fact, Philip didn't look in the rearview mirror, it was just Lan Li's habit, he could faintly feel the tiredness in Lan Li's voice, and there was a shallow smile in his slightly hoarse voice, as if he was complaining about the difficulties caused by a long-distance flight, which reminded Philip of Lan Li's habit: when he just woke up, he always had some little temper.

Philip didn't say much, he just slowed down the car a little to smooth the car and make sure Lan Li could take a short break.

Sure enough, after a while, Lan Li leaned back in the chair, his body completely relaxed, closed his eyes, and seemed to fall asleep.

It was undoubtedly very, very unexpected to meet Philip in New Orleans. For the first time in his memory, he saw Philip on the North American continent, as he was always at the back of his base camp in London, and he rarely followed him even when he was on vacation to Europe.

But Lan Li didn't ask. He knew that there was always a reason for Philip to appear here, and when the time came, Philip would speak, and he didn't need to be anxious, and there was no need to be anxious, on the contrary, seeing Philip appear, Lan Li was always able to relax and find peace.

The sedan drove smoothly on the slightly uneven roads of New Orleans, but Lan Li did not feel the slightest bump, all the thoughts of his brain were emptied, completely relaxed, and vaguely produced the illusion of being in Venice, as if lying on a gondola, feeling the lazy comfort of the afternoon sun in the swaying and swinging of the waves of the sea, and he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.

"Philip, when was the last time you left home?" asked Lan Li curiously, half-asleep.

"Tuscany, summer 2000. Philip replied succinctly without looking back.

Lan Li immediately had a picture in his mind, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a light smile, "Ha, the time we sneaked around in the villa and disappeared on our bicycles, right?" It was already a very, very distant memory, but the memory picture was still vivid, that time it was only him and Matthew, and Andre and Eton went on vacation elsewhere, "Do you know what we found in the end? A waterfall, hidden in a dense forest, seems to have never been a secret wonderland that no one has ever reached. ”

Philip glanced in the rearview mirror and asked, "Do you like it?"

There was some surprise.

Because Philip rarely takes the initiative to ask questions, most of the time he only answers passively, which is also one of the professional rules of housekeepers: try to avoid actively opening the topic, they don't need to complete the conversation, just passively accept the information wastebasket, and then rot all the information in their stomachs.

The corners of Lan Li's mouth lifted slightly, revealing a hint of playfulness, but he didn't say anything, "Yes." At first, because we had sneaked away from the villa, I knew George and Elizabeth wouldn't care, but it was always fun to break their rules, but then all our attention was focused on the natural landscape. In the midst of that forest and that waterfall, all the troubles of life are no longer important, like a sweet dream that you will never wake up to. ”

It was the first time Lan Li really appreciated the grandeur and magnificence of natural scenery, and since then, he has opened the door to a whole new world.

“…… Is that why you refuse to return to the main house?" asked Philip again.

Lan Li opened his eyes, this was really abnormal.

Philip immediately realized that he had crossed the line, "I'm sorry, Master Lanli. ”

Lan Li closed his eyes again, and just when Philip thought Lan Li had fallen asleep again, he heard a low, deep reply, "Hmm. ”

To truly feel the vastness and smoothness of nature, to be able to truly breathe the breath of freedom, that taste is unforgettable, from the body to the spirit of all-round release, returning to the main house, the whole body can feel the pervasive sense of imprisonment, the invisible to the tangible restraint is almost breathless.

Although he is a reborn traveler, Lan Li has never really understood the so-called "freedom", because in the previous life, his life was imprisoned in countless rules and regulations, and the life of the Hall family is not strange to him, and he can even adapt well, his only idea is: to become an actor.

He's just running all his way toward one goal. He has his own persistence, but he has never really broken the framework, the small fights in the school are always just fun and fun within the framework, which is not a special challenge, but in the process of growing up, he has learned about himself little by little, and opened himself up little by little, facing a second life, and really began to reshape himself.

That was the first time he felt truly free.

"Lan Li-Hall" was not Lan Li-Hall from the beginning.

Tuscany, that's a very distant memory.

I didn't expect it to be so long since Philip last left London.

Just as Lan Li was about to ask, how did Philip feel after such a long absence, and it had crossed the entire Atlantic, and this was the first time Philip had left the continent? Has the jet lag adjusted now? Is there anything special about it? New Orleans is obviously a city that fits Philip very well, and he has a special preference for jazz, so how does he feel?

Inexplicably, Lan Li remembered the Titanic. Philip was not from that era, but Philip's father was in the era of the Titanic, and he needed to take a cruise ship to reach the other side of the ocean, but even in the era when airplanes were very convenient, Philip never arrived in the United States.

That's interesting, isn't it? Is it that important why Philip came to New Orleans? There's more to talk about now.

Unexpectedly, Lan Li hadn't figured out which question to ask first, but Philip was the first to speak, "Young Master Lan Li, I'm ready to retire." ”
