In the past few days, the disaster of 11 September and its aftermath have been repeatedly broadcast on the news, and the political and non-political masses have rushed to the top, and the vast majority of the people, who had been arguing endlessly about the so-called national missile defense system, have begun to take the initiative to demand missile defense after this disaster, no matter which station they switch.

Theorod was not a man who cared about national politics, and Norton seemed to be intent on keeping him away from the news about 911, so in his spare time, he and Theorod would always sit on the couch together and watch tapes, and occasionally Theorod would help Norton play against him. As far as he knows, his new film will start shooting in October, when the aftermath of "911" has not yet dissipated, whether it is from the actor to the director, the movie will definitely not be easy to make under this depressed mood.

As for Bennett, he certainly couldn't have stayed at the Norton house like Theorod, and he found a hotel nearby on the night he sent Theorod to the Norton house, and as for the money for staying in the hotel, he said that it was temporarily borrowed from a friend in New York, and he didn't know whether it was true or not.

“hatthehell…… Theo, come and see this!that'sbullshit!"

Theolod was sitting on the couch holding a large bucket of ice cream watching a soap opera, when Norton in the study suddenly slapped the table angrily and burst into several foul mouths one after another. Theolod had just wanted to get up to see what was going on, but when he saw Maggie nestled on his lap and didn't want to leave, he coaxed the clingy cat for a long time before jumping down.

When he entered, Norton was sitting in front of the computer and was rapidly typing on the keyboard, when he saw Theorod coming in, he immediately slid the computer chair to the side to make room: "Come and see! What are these idiots talking about!"

Theolod stepped forward to take a look and found that these people on the Internet were talking about "Fight Club", and they actually thought that it was the plot of "Fight Club" that blew up the telecommunications company in the last scene of "Fight Club" that inspired the terrorists, which led to the "911" incident, and they thought that violent movies like "Fight Club" should be banned.

Norton, on the other hand, was theorizing with them on the trumpet. He thought that Theorod would be in harmony with him, but the other party only sighed after reading it.

"Ed, you have to know that the impact of that incident was not just on the outside, that attack was also a terrorist attack on people's spirits. Countless people died in that disaster, and the people desperately needed a reason, and they would take the initiative to find a reason and find solace in their souls. If that hadn't happened, Fight Club would have been a classic, and yet it happened, and our film became an excuse. ”

"In fact, people are very sensitive nowadays, both they and we are victims, and we can't blame them too much to look at this rationally, because no one can be completely sane in the face of a catastrophe. Cut that out, Ed, and believe me, it's not just Fight Club, at least in the next year, people's tastes about movies will change a lot, at least they don't want to watch movies that are too heavy. ”

Theolod saw it thoroughly, but Norton was a little unwilling: "They're so extreme, just because they never understood Fight Club." ”

"But how many audiences can really understand the movie now? The audience just watches the movie for fun and watching an artistic performance, they are not film critics, they don't have high requirements for the content of the movie, otherwise there would not be so many popcorn movies that hit the box office. "We actors may be acting for the audience, but we are different, we are acting for ourselves, for the film itself, and sometimes you can't define your high standards as an actor in the buyers who watch the show." Okay, don't get angry, take a bite of ice cream. ”

"Hey......" Norton sighed, opened his mouth and accepted Theorod's feeding with peace of mind, probably thinking Theorod was right, he closed the interface, stood up and flipped through the bookshelf, and pulled out a CD, "So for the sake of memorial, how about we watch this movie?"

Theorod couldn't help but smile wryly when he saw the name of "Fight Club" on the box: "Don't you feel embarrassed that the two of us watched the movie starring the two of us again in your living room?"

"Not embarrassed. Norton shook his head, "What flavor of ice cream are you getting, it feels good, I'll go get a box too." ”

"Sorry, I just took what seems to be the last box, banana and almond flavor. ”

“…… I think I bought five boxes, right? You've been eating it in less than two days since you came to my house, and I haven't eaten a single box!"

"Because it's delicious......" Theolod said aggrievedly, looked at the ice cream in his hand and then at Norton, and finally could only reluctantly cut his love, "It's okay, I'll give you this box." ”

“…… Who's going to eat something you've eaten and that's stained on your saliva!" Norton probably forgot that he had just taken a bite of the ice cream that Theorod had handed him.

In the end, Theolod reassured him that he would buy five more boxes for him to make up for when he went to the supermarket, which reassured him. Then the two went back to the living room, replaced the "Friends" disc with "Fight Club" and snuggled up on the couch to enjoy themselves. During this time, Norton also patted his leg and prepared to give up his thigh to his Ragdoll cat, but unfortunately Maggie didn't pay attention to his actions at all, and instead took the initiative to jump on Theolod's lap, making Norton angry and scolding him for forgetting his senses.

Looking at it, seeing the part of Taylor's "lip print" to Jack, Norton suddenly said: "I finally know why some guys on the Internet say that this movie is too sexual/tense, and now that I look at it, I also think that Taylor is plotting against Jack, although, it is true." ”

“…… No, Ed, have you been paying attention to the comments of some fans on the forum blog?" Theorod looked at him incredulously.

"Sometimes I accidentally see it, and sometimes they write articles, I accidentally clicked on it and read one, to be honest, the writing is good, the author expanded on the story of Taylor and Jack, the plot is quite interesting, but the 'kind' description is too violent, even if Taylor's kind of character is indeed a guy who likes to play 'violent tricks'. ”

Theorod hadn't read the articles ......, but he knew more or less what Norton was talking about, so his gaze at Norton suddenly became a little more unclear. He suddenly found that the old guy next to him was a character who knew how to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger better than him.

After a while, the doorbell rang, and Norton motioned for Theorod to continue to use his cat as a knee pillow to stop moving, then walked up to look at the monitor, and saw the person standing outside the door of the apartment downstairs, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, turned around and walked back, and picked up the Maggie on Theorod's lap.

"Look at the guy downstairs...... Is that another assistant of yours?" Mr. 'Nattel' Pope?"

Natel Theorod was also stunned, and quickly stood up and looked at it. In the black-and-white video, standing outside the door, with a beard on his face, and a somewhat haggard and anxious look, it wasn't Natl or who? Why did he suddenly appear here? Wasn't he staying in Los Angeles? Now that the three-day ban on flying over the country has not ended, how did he get here?

“…… Hell, I'll go down and take a look. Theorod said.

Norton also seemed to tell him to remember to bring him ice cream when he came up, but Theorod didn't hear it clearly, because he was running too fast, and he dropped that sentence and rushed to the elevator wearing flip-flops, which made Norton think that Theorod was really in a hurry to run so fast.

Coming down from the elevator, although there was still a layer of frosted glass, Natel knew that the vague shadow was Theolod, and at the moment when the door was pushed open, Natel didn't want to take a step forward and hugged the figure that had made him frightened and worried for two days.

"It's good you're alright, it's good you're okay......" Natel muttered over and over in Theorod's ear.

I don't know if it was because he was holding it too tightly or something, Theolod could feel his body tremble violently. The one-meter-nine Nattel held him like a child at the moment, but Theolod did not feel bored at all, but the dark clouds that had been accumulated in his heart gradually dissipated with Nattel's generous hug.

He smiled involuntarily and patted him gently on the back, his voice incredibly gentle: "Don't be afraid, Nat, I'm reluctant to leave you, I'm fine." ”

Theolod could sense that Nattel's trembling body was gradually calming down under his touch, and he no longer strangled him, perhaps worried about surveillance or someone else passing by, Natel reluctantly let go of Theorod and pressed his hands on his shoulders, carefully observing the injuries on his body.

There were bandages on his head, bandages on the bridge of his nose and around his mouth, and some scars on the back of his hands and fingers, but there were no other obvious injuries. Still a little uneasy, he took a detour behind Theorod to take a look. Theorod knew what he was worried about, so he patted him on the arm and said, "Okay, I probably only have some bruises on my body, and the rest are fine, and there is no concussion." ”

"Gavin's guy has a slight concussion, but it's good to rest. Theolod suddenly changed his words, and then saw a trace of dissatisfaction flash in Nattel's expression, and his eyebrows bent and he smiled even brighter.

"Don't you care about me and ask me how I ...... you, you kid is playing me!" Natel, who just wanted to complain, saw Theorod's expression, and immediately realized that he had been tricked by him, and couldn't help but pout and hug his chest, "Of course I know that he has a slight concussion, so let him rest in the hotel for the next few days...... Why are you staring at me?"

Theolod looked at the dark circles under Nattel's eyelids, looked at his scum, looked at the tiredness on his face that could not be concealed, raised his hand slightly, and touched his eyes: "Nat, Nat, what should I say about you, what do I have that is worthy of you to drive across the continental United States?"

“…… What nonsense are you talking about?" Nattel frowned, "Don't think about that nonsense, do you hear that?"

"Okay, it's nothing, but what you need most now is to go to the hotel and take a shower, you can run here so quickly, you must have not rested on the way, right? Besides, you can't drive alone for more than forty hours, what about your 'friend'?"

Natle wants Theolod to move out of Norton's hotel, and Theolod eats Norton's clothes in the past few days, which makes him particularly unhappy. Theolod agreed, and he bought five boxes of ice cream at the supermarket next door to take home, explaining to Norton that because "The Phantom of the Opera" was about to premiere in the UK, he was afraid that he would have to rush back to Los Angeles tomorrow when the sky was running normally, and it would be inconvenient to borrow it at Norton's house tonight.

Relatives and friends of the victims of the 911 attack rushed to New York as soon as the disaster struck, and with the help workers and volunteers who came from all over the country, the hotels in New York were overcrowded for a while, and Theolod and Natl were only booked in a presidential suite. However, the Presidential Suite has three rooms, which is definitely enough for both of them.

If Theorod hadn't offered a room for one of Natle's men who had been captured as coolies, and the other and Bennett squeezed the twin room, Natle would have been satisfied. It's just that now it seems that Theorod is preparing the rhythm of one person per room.

At night, in the master bedroom, Theolod who had just come out of the bathroom saw that Natel, who had also finished taking a shower, did not go to rest, but sat on the bed seriously and took the initiative to see the injuries on Theorod's body.

Theolod turned around in front of him with some amusement and said that he really only had some bruises, but he didn't expect Natel to reach out and pull him to the bed, press on him and look at the bruises carefully, and when he found one, he printed a kiss, and some would lick it with the tip of his tongue.

Theolod is psychologically old, which does not mean that he is a wooden man, of course he will react when he is treated like this by Nattle, not to mention that he has kissed him in the end where there is no bruise. After Natle had kissed the scar on the bridge of his nose, licked the wound at the corner of his mouth, and finally caught a hot kiss on his lips, Theolod tilted his head and imprinted a kiss under his heavy dark circles.

"You're tired, Nat, you need to rest. ”

"......" Natel leaned over Theorod's neck and gasped, feeling particularly frustrated - this kid was obviously made to react by him, but the next second he told him to go back to his room and sleep, and anyone would be frustrated. But Natel also knew that Theorod was really worried about him, so he didn't say anything and had to obediently go back to the next room.

The next day, Theolod took his first flight back to Los Angeles and was startled by the crowd of enthusiastic fans who were stuck at the airport worried about him. 166 Reading Network
