Chapter subtitle: IT-IS-SHOW-TIME!
Bang dang! Someone slammed open the bedroom door. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Neo, we won...... No, you won! ”
"Uh-huh, I see. Can't you just let me sleep a little longer? Didn't I tell you not to wake me? ”
"Half a million dollars, my God, a whole half million dollars!"
"Helen, I don't see that you're still a money junkie."
"Neo. With this money, what are you going to do? ”
"Louie, of course I'm going back home."
"Aren't you still going to study for a Ph.D., aren't you going to do it?"
"What's the use of a doctor? When I return home, there are more important things to do than 10,000 PhDs combined......"
July 1921, Magic City.
"Is this No. 3 Bel Nali Road?"
"Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong. I'm not a patrol house, but a comrade who has just returned from the United States. ”
"Fortunately, you don't have to be polite, just call me Hongji."
"No, no, I'll just sit next to this comrade clerk."
"You ask me, how do I know you're here? It's a bit of a long story......"
"Pickup pickup!"
Hey, this is a broken system! Lao Tzu is not at ease when he dreams.
"Wake up, Neo. Wake up! ”
"Well, I know we won, didn't I tell you not to wake me up?"
Yuan Yanqian closed her eyes and muttered a few words, pulled up the quilt and put it on her head.
"How do you know you've won? Hey, it's not about that, it's a matter of human life! ”
Hearing "human life is at stake", Yuan Yanqian really woke up. He rubbed his eyes, stretched, picked up his bedside watch and saw that it was barely seven o'clock.
"Brush!"
Someone opened the curtains, and our Master Yuan took advantage of the daylight to see the situation in the house. He could not help but be startled, and both Mr. Baker and Miss Brown looked at themselves lying on the bed with serious expressions, as if they were ...... It's like a farewell to a body.
He blurted out, "You guys are ......"
Mr. Louis-Baker said in a deep voice, "Neo, we don't want to wake you up, but...... Someone out there is killing himself. ”
Fortunately, English has a continuous tense.
"Committing suicide?! So, that guy isn't dead yet...... By the way, who can't think so much? ”
Miss Helen Brown said with a look of disapproval, "It's Mr. Mike Baldwin." Just now the Republicans won California, and he climbed the bell tower. ”
Look, if you die, you will die. Tell this guy not to gamble so much, he just won't listen. However, Yuan Yanqian is "seeking wealth" and not trying to kill people, and now it is a matter of human life, so he also asked a little nervously: "Then what is the situation now?" ”
Mr. Baker said, "He hasn't jumped yet, so we've woken you up." ”
Oh, and since you haven't jumped yet, you won't be jumping for a while.
Yuan Yanqian came from a hundred years after the explosion of knowledge, and he can be regarded as knowing some psychological skin. In fact, in addition to major depression, how can it be so easy for ordinary people to seek death by themselves, which requires great courage to work.
And jumping off a building may be a hot brain, but if the brain calms down, this thing will not be able to be done.
"Oh." Master Yuan, who was relieved, asked casually while getting dressed without hurry, "Where has Mr. McCall gone?" He's not going to die, is he......"
"I'm not that vulnerable!" Before he could finish speaking, Mr. John McCall appeared at the door, still holding a check in his hand.
Yuan Yanqian also knew that she was at a loss, so she had to smile awkwardly: "Hahaha, haven't I woken up yet." Don't mind. ”
"Humph!" The young gentleman who lost money and didn't want to lose came over and said, "Mr. Yuan, I admit to losing the bet." Here's your check, a check for $5,000. ”
"Neo ......"
"John ......"
Mr. Baker and Miss Brown spoke almost simultaneously, but neither knew what to say.
It seems unreasonable not to let Neo accept the $5,000, this is a dignified bet.
It's a bit unreasonable not to let John fulfill his promise, but it's an agreement between gentlemen.
"Well, you are a true gentleman." Master Yuan didn't look embarrassed at all, he took the check very calmly, and he deliberately raised it in front of his eyes to check the watermark on the check through the sunlight.
"Smack!" Then he flexed his index finger and flicked the check hard, and the crisp sound of the crisp note sounded.
Master Yuan turned to Miss Brown and said, "Helen, you find out Mr. McCall's contract and give it to him. ”
"Okay, okay." The little black-haired beauty, who had nothing to say now, nodded, walked to the table and easily found the shooting contract in alphabetical order.
Miss Brown handed over the contract with a complicated expression: "This is your contract. John, you ......"
And Mr. McCall turned pale, and his lips trembled, and said, "Helen, I ......."
The two looked at each other and fell silent at the same time.
"Boom!"
Yuan Yanqian picked up the matches and cigarettes on the bedside table, he picked up the cigarette and lit the match......
"Neo, what are you doing here?!"
Mr. Baker's exclamation made the little couple turn their heads as well......
The three of them saw our Master Yuan put Mr. McCall's cheque on top of the flames and ignited the valuable bill!
He lit the cigarette in his mouth with the burning check and threw the almost burned check into the ashtray.
Miss Brown and Mr. McCall let out an involuntary exclamation.
"Tired!"
"Mr. Yuan!"
However, Yuan Yanqian didn't seem to hear it at all, and raised his head and spewed out a long smoke from his lungs. He extinguished the cigarette butt, put on his pants in the bed, jumped out of bed, put on his shirt, and finally picked up the suit hanging on the back of the sofa.
He shook the suit as hard as the red cloth in the bullfighter's hand, flipped it in a chic way, and put it on himself.
He expertly tied his tie and said to the three of them as if nothing had happened just now, "LET'S-GO!" ”
With that, he picked up the hat and trench coat from the coat rack and walked towards the door first. But the other three stood there dumbfounded, not moving.
So our Master Yuan stuck his head into the bedroom again and shouted to the friends who were in a state of bewilderment, "Aren't you coming?" Don't blame me for not reminding you, keep your eyes open......"
"It's show time!"
This big drama has been staged here, and it is a pity that there are three audience members missing.
"This ......"
The three of them woke up from a dream, looked at each other a few times, and hurriedly followed.
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”
When Yuan Yanqian walked out of the dormitory, he saw a bunch of reporters gathered at the door, this time the four major newspapers and four tabloids, as well as all kinds of messy newspapers, all came.
Fortunately, this time our Master Yuan was mentally prepared, endured the strong discomfort, and opened a pair of eyes to the boss. He's also justifying the eyes of the people of Seris. But unfortunately, these photos were not used later.
"Mr. Yuan, do you have anything to say now?"
"Mr. Yuan, how are you going to use this huge amount of money?"
"Mr. Yuan, you have won so much money, have you considered the feelings of hundreds of classmates?"
Yuan Yanqian suddenly stopped, turned his head to the reporter and snorted coldly: "If I lose, will these hundreds of classmates consider my feelings?" ”
