Chapter 32: The Heroic Epic (1)
On the wide screen, the Lego logo and the words of Lego appeared, then the names of the producers, directors, and screenwriters, and then the huge four words - heroic epic.
The movie officially begins.
In the luxurious and extravagant living room, a middle-aged man in comfortable homely clothes sat on the sofa, holding a goblet in his hand, shaking his right hand gently, taking a sip of red wine, and listening to the report of his subordinates.
"Master, there is still one family left in the plot of land where we are preparing to build a large plaza and a shopping mall and department store. The family lived in an old woman, and there was no one in the house, saying that it was a house left by her ancestors, and that unless she died, she would not want to touch her house for a moment. A shrewd man in a suit stood respectfully beside him, reporting on his work.
Master Henry took another sip of red wine, felt a little hungry, and ordered the butler who stood beside him to be ready to serve him at any time: "Tell the kitchen, make lobster for me, and ask for spicy and salt-and-pepper." ”
The butler answered in a low voice, turned around and took a few steps back, beckoned a maid to come over, gave some instructions, and returned to his original position, and continued to listen to the master's dispatch.
As soon as Master Henry handed the cup over, the butler took it, and Master Henry put his hand down, put it on his thigh, and said casually: "Since the old woman has said so, then you should do what they ask." ”
The shrewd man in the suit replied respectfully, understood what Master Henry meant, waited for a while, and saw that there were no other instructions, so he retired first.
As if remembering something, Master Henry asked the butler, "What about Mr. and Mrs. Antonio and Matthew?" ”
The housekeeper replied: "The eldest young man and the eldest young grandmother took the young master to the playground to play, saying that they would not go home for lunch at noon today, and they would come back to dine with you in the evening." ”
Master Henry smiled helplessly: "Oh, it must be Matthew's kid who is playful." Okay, remember to tell the kitchen to cook more of the little master's favorite meals tonight, he must be tired and hungry after a day of playing, and he may be able to eat two bowls of rice at night. ”
The housekeeper accompanied him to have fun. Behind the butler, there is an electronic date display, which clearly reads: May 12, 2222, 9:45 a.m
Walking out of Lord Henry's mansion, the man in the suit got into his car, drove to a casino, and when he got out of the car, he saw a burly man waiting at the door.
When the burly man saw the man in the suit, he smiled and said, "Sam, why do you have time to come to me?" Let's go play two. ”
Sam smiled and politely declined his invitation, saying what he was here for: "That old house on Second Street on Third Avenue is too old, it's time to disappear." ”
When the burly man heard this, he first drank back from an old man with a small bucket and a rag, "Old William, don't wipe the car, this gentleman will leave later." Seeing the old man obediently retreat, he glanced at Sam again, revealing a tacit look at each other. He had done so much for Lord Henry, and sent a few of his men out at night, and the house would be rightfully torn down the next morning. As long as he does these little things for Lord Henry, his casino is not afraid of being seized by the police station.
The burly man smiled heroically: "Okay, I know what to do, don't worry, wait for my good news tomorrow." ”
Sam didn't take the old man to heart, and when he saw that the burly man agreed, he drove away. The burly man also turned back to his casino.
Old William, who turned to leave, couldn't help but clench the rag in his hand, thinking of the words he had just overheard, his brows frowned, and a deep tic-tac-toe was revealed in the center of his eyebrows. His weather-covered face showed a look of embarrassment, his eyes flickered, and the rag in his hand was crumpled.
William Sr. had been absent-minded all morning, but luckily he was only helping to clean the car outside the casino, and not many people noticed his abnormality. Old William thought about it again and again, and was afraid for a moment that once his behavior of ventilating and reporting was known by the burly man, he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around; For a while, I thought that when Old Mary was hungry in the past, he gave him a hundred dollars to buy food to survive, and he should go to save Old Mary's life; turned to convince himself that he had already repaid the kindness of 100 yuan, so why should he get involved in this kind of turmoil and let himself be deeply embarrassed.
Old William's face changed several times, and finally he sighed deeply helplessly, and decided to turn to Old Mary on the second street of Third Avenue on the way home from work in the afternoon, and throw a stone into her window while no one was paying attention, attaching a note, if Old Mary could listen to the persuasion, naturally there would be no danger to her life.
After deciding, old William seemed to have let go of his heart, said to the parking boy at the door, and went to buy a cheap takeaway from the small food cart sold by the cart in the alley next to him, and just squatted on the side of the road with the takeaway, eating rice mixed with minced meat, when he suddenly heard a deafening explosion.
After one sound, as if it were a signal, explosions kept coming, louder than the last.
Old William was frightened, the half-chewed green vegetables in his mouth fell, looked at the place where the explosion came from in a daze, and muttered: "God, what happened?" ”
The vendor pushing the small food cart was also frightened, and when the explosion stopped, he didn't even do business, and hurriedly pushed his cart back. Some of the migrant workers around the small food truck had already eaten half of their meals, and they didn't dare to eat at this time, and some had just bought takeout, holding their lunch boxes tightly, looking worriedly at the distance where the wolf smoke was rising.
At this time, in the No. 3 fan theater, there was a gasping sound, and when they saw the picture on the wide screen, they gasped.
Some of the Trojans at the merry-go-round have been blown to pieces, some are still half of their bodies left, and some of the entire Trojans have flown out. As the Trojan horse flew out, a child's arm and half an adult's body could be seen, and the waiting area on the periphery of the merry-go-round was full of stump segments. By the time the smoke cleared, half of the center of the merry-go-round's shaft was gone, leaving a large semi-circular pit, and the remaining half was clinging to some flesh, and the colorful wooden horse was only full of bright red.
More than 20 meters away, the stunned crowd looked at the scene in a daze, as if someone had choked their necks, unable to make a sound, and even more like someone nailed their feet, unable to move at all.
A terrible child's cry sounded, so that the crowd reacted, and no longer cared about anything else, only holding his own child, dragging his family, as if there was a flood and beast chasing behind, and ran for his life to the door of the playground.
