Chapter 58: Infinity V

"Is life forever so hard, or is it just childhood?"

When Shen Yan was carrying a bunch of things and climbing the stairs sideways, the girl sitting on the edge of the corridor on the previous floor suddenly asked.

"Oh-" Shen Yan looked left and right, no one, the girl was indeed asking him. Shen Yan rolled his eyes helplessly and leaned a lot of things against the wall. "Listen girl, look at me...... I'm just an ordinary Chinese nurse, I'm not a handsome uncle with a stubble and an innocent heart, nor a ruthless killer with no feelings, why do you ask me this kind of question? ”

"I'm sorry......" the girl raised her head and said, Shen Yan saw a large pool of blood flowing under her nose.

"Alas~" He hurriedly grabbed the things with one hand as much as possible, took out a handkerchief with one free hand, and handed it to the girl. "They're beating you again? If you want me to say that you might as well agree to my request, I can help you clean them up, what do you think? ”

"Thank you." The girl smiled reluctantly and looked at the blood stains on the handkerchief. "I'll give it back to you when I'm clean."

"No thanks." Shen Yan shook his head meaninglessly, carried a lot of things upstairs, pushed the door and turned into the aisle behind the girl.

After a few moments, Leon emerged from the shadows of the next floor and slowly walked upstairs carrying a wooden box. Dressed in a half-cut black coat, ill-fitting trousers and old leather shoes, he looked a bit like a street-side shoe polisher, though he did live here.

When the girl saw him, she suddenly remembered what Shen Yan said, "A handsome uncle with stubble and innocence in his heart", and burst out laughing.

Leon passed her expressionlessly, and walked about four or five steps before suddenly asking. "What does he ask you to do?"

"Ah, no, it's not what you think." The girl was stunned for a moment, then realized what Leon was asking, and hurriedly shook her head. "He, he wants my autograph, that's it, nothing else."

"Hmm," Ryan nodded expressionlessly, but said anyway. "My friend told me that if you don't understand what's written on the paper, you must not sign it."

"Thanks," the girl smiled, "wait, I have a question, is life always so hard, or is it just childhood?" She asked that question again.

Leon said expressionlessly when he saw the undried blood stains under her nose.

"Forever."

Yes, this is the movie, the Chinese name "This Killer Is Not Too Cold".

Natalie Portman's second screen Lori Matilda, and Jean Renault's killer uncle Leon, set in the slums of New York in the seventies and eighties - Shen Yan's contract this time is this movie.

On the first day Shen Yan entered the world, he recognized the two protagonists of the story, Xiao Lori, who sat in the corridor all day and secretly smoked, and Leon, the killer who went out early and returned late and hid a gun in his shoebox. However, it was neither the cute Lori Matilda who suffered from domestic violence and had the same name as his sister, nor Leon, who became a fool after watching "Singin' in the Rain".

It's the one who lives between Leon's house and Matilda's house...... Old lady!

*****

Does anyone remember?

It was the old lady with curly hair who walked out the door when Dirty Cop Stan slaughtered Matilda's family.

She insisted, "Leave that poor family alone," and Stan shot her in the glass window of the aisle door next to her face!

The building is a similar tube building, with two aisles on each floor, each connecting apartments of varying sizes. Of these, Matilda lived in the aisle on the right-hand side after going up the stairs, and there were three; The old lady lived in the aisle opposite, and there were five of them; Leon rented only one small apartment on the left-hand side and straight down; There is no elevator and the overall look is very basic.

Such apartment buildings in slums are often home to drug traffickers, the elderly, and immigrants. Better, though, it's a community of Italians and Irish, and it's not even the bottom of society.

And this old lady, who only appears in one scene in the entire movie, is named Martha - but she's not Batman or Superman's mom.

The finance company in charge of Martha's investment goes bankrupt, and she can't get her money back. Her children also left her, and the old lady had to survive on the handouts. However, as her health deteriorated and she struggled to even go downstairs, she felt that her life had come to an end...... Not wanting to cause trouble to the landlord, she began to sort out the "relics" herself, which were full of memories of her and her husband.

It is said that good things can definitely be found in the rooms of the elderly, and so is Martha. She pulled out a parchment contract...... Old, dizzy, forgetful but stubborn, Martha is adamant that this is a "caregiver contract".

No matter how Shen Yan who came with the summoning explained, he couldn't do it!

The old lady insisted that this was a nurse contract, and even called the lawyer and exposed it to the newspaper...... However, she didn't have a lawyer, and her phone was down for a long time. Just such a chirping old lady, what can Shen Yan do? He's also helpless.

……

"Four packs of tissues, milk, bread, tea." Shen Yan was putting away a lot of things in the same way. Behind him, Old Lady Martha shouted in a fit of rage, "You wicked wizard! "I ran into the toilet, and then I ran back to sit back on the couch, and I was sick and walking......

That's right, Shen Yan is already a legendary warlock, and he can handle these problems very well.

If necessary, even if an old lady turns in space for three and a half weeks to connect to the big loop, it is a matter of moving your fingers. Even if the old lady goes around talking, who would believe an old man who speaks upside down and is very forgetful.

"I'm going to call the police!"

"Okay, call your ......" Shen Yan said, took out a large box of hamburgers and a cup of low-sugar coffee from his pocket, and put them on the top of the plate to the old lady, "This is the burger in Brooklyn you wanted, but the store you said has long been closed, I changed to a better one, a burger costs twenty dollars." "Twenty dollars was not a small amount of money in the seventies and eighties.

The old lady Martha was actually very content with what she said, and after a while she hummed a song to herself, took a knife and fork and enjoyed the hamburger.

"Can I watch TV with you? My TV in my house is broken. The door was open, and Matilda poked her head in and asked, her pretty bob head swaying.

European and American children are self-cooked, and they are not so restrained when they go to the neighbor's house.

"No way!" The old lady shouted, "That's my TV, you can't watch those nasty cartoons in my room!" "It seems that Matilda likes to watch Transformers, and everyone in the neighborhood knows that - apparently her TV is not broken.

"Shut up, your TV has long been stopped, or did I pay to turn it back on." Shen Yan roared and beckoned to Matilda, "Go and see for yourself, don't mess with Matha." ”

"Thank you."

Shen Yan continued to clean up the room, the old lady leaned on the sofa and fell asleep after eating, and Matilda watched cartoons. But one time, when Shen Yan passed by Matilda, he heard her whisper, "I hate drug dealers." ”

Shen Yan hesitated, pretending not to hear it.

He knew that Matilda's father was a drug dealer and that her family would be ruined by drugs in the future - her father was an informant for the dirty cop Stan, who secretly hid the drugs seized by the police with his father, who killed him by dropping some of the drugs......

But this kind of thing, shouldn't you talk to Leon next door? That's the male lead, I'm just an ordinary Chinese nurse.

Shen Yan turned his head to look in the mirror, alas, he complained that this damn handsome face was really an innate curse.

Shen Yan's hesitation is that he did not sign a contract with the hero and heroine, it was the old lady who signed the contract with him - and the old lady lived for three months at most, and after three months, he could settle the bill and leave, completely ignoring the love-hate entanglement in the movie.

If you intervene, even if the matter is still easy to come, it is still tantamount to making extraneous branches...... Shen Yan, who has obtained the law of the Libra goddess, now has a new understanding of "equivalent exchange".

That is to desperately take advantage, and would rather die than suffer!

However, in front of him, there is obviously no place for him to take advantage of.
