2156. Chapter 2156 2156 The Transition of the Century
Hugo once experienced a turn of the century, when he was just a child, and his musical dreams were just budding, and he didn't think about wandering at all, nor did he think about what his future would be, but simply enjoyed the joy of childhood. As for the memories of the turn of the century, Hugo can no longer remember the details, but he remembers that the whole town came to the square, watched the big screen count down together, and then cheered, and the friends lit the fireworks in their hands and ran wildly under the night.
At that time, he was full of countless imaginations about the future, as if he was really a generation of the new century, who could create a sky of his own and then fly freely under the blue sky. Imagining himself standing in the middle of Times Square, standing on London Bridge, joining the national carnival and cheering for the new century with everyone, he actively looks forward to the future and does his best to embrace it with open arms.
Now, Hugo has actually fulfilled his dream - he just didn't expect that he could stand in the middle of New York's Times Square and count down with hundreds of thousands of people; He can also stand on the stage of the concert and welcome the turn of the century with music with the fans.
Originally, Hugo thought that after experiencing it once, he would not be so excited, because he clearly knew that after the turn of the century, life would still be the same life, and he would still have to move on, and the world would not change in any way. But with the countdown to the millennium just two weeks away, Hugo and his friends couldn't wait to start planning how to celebrate the New Year.
Because Hugo clearly knows that life is moving forward every day, and the important thing is not the difficulties and hardships of life, but the expectation of life, but also moving forward side by side with his friends. It is precisely because he has experienced it once, and it is precisely because he has crossed the mountains and returned here again, that he cherishes it even more.
On December 31, 1999, all the streets between Times Square and Rockefeller Square were occupied by crowds, and more than a million people surrounded the streets of the entire Manhattan Island. Downtown and on. The city is constantly continuous, and when you look down from above, you can only see dense human heads, and even the countless high-rise buildings in New York seem to have become extremely small, and there is a smile that is completely submerged by the sea of people at any time.
"God, are we sure this was a wise decision? Why do I already have a sense of foreboding now? Samora frowned and shook her head.
This expression made Pedro, who was standing next to him, laugh, "Relax, relax!" I'm here tonight, and I don't need any burden. Pedro shouted into Samora's ear, the shrill sound causing Samora's eardrums to ache.
Samora turned his head to look at him for help, only to see Alfonso and Joseph gloating smiles, which made Samora roll his eyes, someone behind him patted him on the shoulder, Samora turned his head and saw Alexander's relaxed smile, "There is only this one carnival in my life, there is no need to be so nervous." Look at Hugo, he's so calm. ”
Samora followed Alexander's line of sight, and then saw Hugo and Leonardo, Neil, and Alan Strello getting together, and Charlize, Sandra, Jennifer Aniston and others not far away. At this time, Hugo seemed to say something, and Leonardo jumped up excitedly, causing Neil and Allen, who were standing next to him, to show a hellish expression, which really made people laugh.
Samora let out a long breath, he was actually worried that things would get out of hand - given Hugo's influence now, once a tsunami of people was triggered, it would definitely be a disaster, and a disaster that no one could control. But before Samora could almost think, a huge force came from behind him, making Samora rush forward with an unstable center, and then crashed into a woman's arms, Samora suddenly blushed, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!" ”
The woman smiled at Samora and without saying a word, grabbed Samora by the collar and placed a kiss on his cheek, which made Samora completely overwhelmed, and when she turned around, she saw the cheerful facial expressions of Pedro and Alfonso.
"Do we need to move on?" Alan shouted at Hugo, with a hint of uncertainty in his expression.
At this time, they were still five blocks away from Rockefeller Plaza, and the crowd was still relatively loose, not really to the point of rubbing shoulders, and the crowd was moving slowly forward. However, looking ahead, it was almost a crowded scene, and it seemed that not even a piece of paper could be stuffed into it, which made people feel staggered.
"Let's go! Walk! Walk! Leonardo didn't give Alan a chance to refute at all, he raised his voice and said excitedly, and even began to jump, causing Hugo who was standing next to him to laugh, "Alan, since you are here, enjoy yourself, the last thing you need today is reason." ”
Such an occasion is indeed completely inconsistent with Alan's personality, in fact, he is regretting it at the moment, why did he nod because of Hugo's bright smile? It's all a ghost! "Oh God!" Don't need to be sane? So what kind of situation will this become, isn't it a disaster?
Looking at the curve of Alan's taut jaw, Hugo laughed and patted him on the shoulder, "Maybe you can start by untying your tie." "Everyone is traveling lightly today, only Alan is still wearing a suit and tie, and he is too restrained.
Alan looked at Hugo's starry eyes, adjusted his tie, and finally did not untie it, which made Leonardo, who was standing next to him, almost unbearable, and walked up with an arrow step, and ripped Allen's bow tie open, "Hey, man, relax, all you need is relax." ”
Alan was caught off guard, and the tie was untied, and then he looked at Hugo and Leonardo with a stunned face, and he didn't know if he should punch Leonardo? Or should Leonardo be punched!
It's a pity that Leonardo didn't give him a chance, and immediately hid behind Hugo, laughing happily, so that Allen's clenched fist could only relax and grit his teeth, but in the end, the tight corners of his mouth still followed the smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth and raised a helpless arc.
The crowd gradually moved forward, becoming more and more crowded, and it became more and more difficult to move.
Hugo didn't dress up today, didn't have a hat or sunglasses, just became an ordinary person and really joined the carnival. Many people in the crowd recognized Hugo, but it didn't cause a commotion, and everyone's brains were hot, just laughing, hugging, and high-fiveing Hugo, as if this was a moment when everyone was in a carnival. Reason, indeed, is the only thing that is not needed at this moment.
"You should ......" Sandra shouted at Hugo, but halfway through the words, it was drowned out by the noise in front of her, even Sandra couldn't hear her words clearly, everyone looked forward, only to see Madonna's figure appear on the big screen above Times Square, she appeared domineeringly, making everyone boil, Sandra pointed at Madonna, and shouted to Hugo again, "You should stand there and perform." ”
Hugo shook his head and smiled brightly, "No, tonight belongs to us, belongs to us, belongs to us, and should not belong to the stage." Hugo, however, didn't mind getting into Madonna's performance and cheering with everyone.
In the blink of an eye, the countdown was coming, less than five minutes before the year 2000, and in the crowd, Hugo saw Charlize's eyebrows full of happiness and excitement, and he pushed through the crowd as if he had crossed a thousand mountains and rivers, and then came to Charlize's side, and then he gently patted her on the shoulder.
Charlize turned his head suddenly, and then he saw Hugo's full smile, and his eyes suddenly burst into surprise, "Hey, look at who this is, I thought you were with Alan and Leo." Charlize's voice jumped briskly, as if it were tap-dancing dew in the early morning sun.
"I just wanted to come over and say 'hi' to you." Hugo grabbed Charlize's waist from behind, leaned down slightly, pressed his cheek against Charlize's cheek, and whispered in her ear, "Also, come and collect my exclusive zero countdown." ”
Charlize could feel Hugo's hot chest on her back, the hard heartbeat seemed to penetrate her back, hitting her heart, and the breath exclusive to Hugo surrounded her tightly, although in the midst of the surging crowd, she felt like never before that she belonged to the man behind her.
"Ten, nine, eight......" The countdown began, Charlize raised his head, and crashed into Hugo's starry eyes, the smile on the corner of his mouth was shallowly outlined, and then the two of them followed everyone and roared, "Seven, six, five......" The entire Manhattan Island boiled, as if the energy of the whole world was concentrated at this moment, and the faces that were filled with brilliant light because of their excitement reflected the dark night sky as if it were day, "Four, three, two......"
The heart exploded at this moment, bursting into colorful fireworks, the shout of "one" echoed in his ears, Hugo lowered his head, and kissed Charlize on the lips; Charlize raised his right hand and hooked Hugo's neck, and responded warmly and affectionately, as if in the crater of a volcano made time stand still in this moment. Sweet kisses, happy kisses, romantic kisses, stuck at this moment when the twentieth century entered the twenty-first century.
It's been 2000 years.
