Chapter 003: The Cider House Rule - Don't Get Drunk

"I was wrong before, Charlotte Booth, you're not a fool—"

Looking at the eloquent man in front of her, Sally decided to revise her judgment half an hour ago,

"You're a liar, a botched liar!"

“...... Actually, I feel this way myself. ”

Denounced as a liar, Charlotte couldn't help but smile bitterly - from China in 2017 back to the United States in 1993, the name changed from "Charlotte" in Chinese to "Charlotte" in English, this experience would definitely be considered a liar.

However, Charlotte, or Charlotte now, was not naïve enough to tell a girl she had just met about such an incredible adventure. The reason why he was identified as a liar by the girl is actually another.

"I didn't mean to lie to you, but as soon as I opened my eyes from a coma, I saw such a stunning beauty standing in front of me, that anyone would suspect that he was dreaming, so that his brain was confused and he couldn't speak—"

"So, you're not a botched liar, you're a botched pick-up, are you?"

was so robbed of white by a beautiful woman, Charlotte could only nod and smile bitterly. Who makes life far more bizarre than fiction, and telling the truth by himself is even more unbelievable!

At the first sight of Sally, Charlotte discovered through her own spirit detection trick that she had rarely had the opportunity to use before, that this beautiful blonde and blue-eyed child had an aura that she had been looking for for years - a unique aura of ghosts.

After all, although Reiki is hard to find in this era of the end of the Dharma, it does not mean that it is always colorful when it appears. In fact, according to what Charlotte learned from the old ghost, the only thing that would make the aura that should be indistinguishable from the mist emit colorful light is the aura of various ghosts.

- In other words, this girl named Sally must have been in contact with some ghosts recently, so she left a strong ghost aura on her body, causing the nearby aura to glow.

- Of course, this light can only be seen by Charlotte when she uses the Soul Detection Technique, and in the eyes of ordinary people, Sally is just a beautiful blonde girl;

This discovery made Charlotte, who was quite calm and calm even in the face of such a bizarre event as she crossed over, and there was a kind of melancholy that Wu Hook would eventually use, so much so that she burst into tears. However, as the old saying goes, misfortune does not go alone, but blessing never comes twice, life will always habitually attach a stick to you after giving you a sweet date, as a sign of fairness.

Needless to say, the cry-filled and contemptible stupidity was not to mention, and what was worse was that Charlotte was so excited that she forgot to travel through the lessons of the past and told her about the ghosts, and the result was naturally the same as before.

Having said that, this is also very normal, even Charlotte herself, if someone suddenly says something to him, "Your Excellency's seal hall is black, and there will be a catastrophe in the near future", he will not believe it.

Well, maybe I will amusefully reply to the previous sentence:

"Is it? Your Excellency has such a vision? I see Your Excellency's strange face and bones, and this important task of guarding world peace is entrusted to you!"

In a sense, Sally's answer is also what it means.

"Since you have seen through it, then I, the clumsy accoster, will not beat around the bush. ”

If you can't make a plan, then it's good to have another plan. Charlotte decided to regroup and save the country,

"Beautiful young lady, can I please have a drink?"

- Since you are already considered a liar, it is better to use the methods of a liar, and it is not like I haven't done this before.

"This ...... Alright!"

After a moment's hesitation, Sally finally agreed, as Charlotte had expected.

In fact, for Charlotte, who was knocked unconscious by herself in order to save herself, Sally did not suspect that the other party had any bad intentions, but the latter's first impression on her was not very good, so she hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

This is more out of the consideration of returning favors, which is the so-called Pity date.

"Still, you've just woken up from a coma, so you're going to drink, okay?"

"Of course!"

Charlotte shook her head, maybe it was the incidental enhancement of the crossing, he really didn't feel any dizziness,

"Even if I had a party with a whole bunch of beautiful women tonight, I would be absolutely fine. ”

"I think your problem is more serious, and you don't even have a clear consciousness. ”

Sally glared at him with a slight disgust, apparently understanding what he meant,

"Even if you don't cherish your body, please cherish the dollar, call girl asks for money!"

"Really, I haven't experienced it, hehehe......"

Charlotte smirked a few times with a little embarrassment, ending the conversation, but there was a feeling of depression in her heart-

Shit! I've been in the magic house for too long, and I don't know how to talk to a woman! What I just said is simply self-defeating!

"Forget it, since you don't care about yourself, what do I have to worry about?"

Sally waved her hand,

"There's a bar nearby that I'm familiar with, do you want to go?"

After speaking, as if remembering something, the girl shook her lips and added,

"But this time I'll have to pay the bill!"

"That's fine!"

Charlotte readily agreed—how could he care about a little money for a drink, when the goal he had been searching for for years was finally dawning?

“...... So, Mr. Director, because of your arrangement, I have a unique encounter, should I call you Cupid, 'kind' miss?"

Charlotte, who was holding a wine glass, winked at Sally, and then couldn't help laughing,

"Oh, God, bless poor Mr. Director's miserable!

Sally laughed too. Although Charlotte's words are very rude, Sally herself is not a daughter from the Upper East Side of New York, not to mention, it is the director who is being made fun of.

"It doesn't matter, if it's really bent, it's better to go to the fashion world! There, Gay is at the top of the food chain. ”

This can be said to be the personal experience of former model Sally, and the reason why she changed her career to become an actress is that in addition to the reality of the income gap between the two, she has never been able to adapt to the style of the fashion industry.

"So, Sally, if you were given another choice, would you still choose to refuse that director's request?"

Hearing this sudden formal question, Sally suddenly felt the wine in her mouth bitter. She crooked the corners of her mouth boringly:

"Who knows, but I don't think I would have turned down if my career was the same in another year. I don't know if that hateful director will be bent, but if it goes on like this, I'm about to be bent by reality!"

- Hey, who can not bend their waist for five buckets of rice!

Charlotte sighed in her heart, she wanted to say something, but finally thought about it and gave up.

This is Hollywood!

"But I can't imagine that a girl as energetic as you would want to kill herself. ”

"It's not just you, I didn't think of it myself. ”

Sally took another sip of wine,

"Last night I just wanted to drink and vent, but I got drunk all of a sudden, and when I woke up, I was told that I had experienced a suicide attempt - originally, I thought that waking up in a strange little hotel with an equally strange man lying next to me was the worst outcome!"

"I don't think the latter scenario is the worst-"

Charlotte blinked,

"-It all depends on whether the man is handsome enough!"

"At least not at your level. ”

Sally hit Charlotte mercilessly,

"If you want to take me out of this bar, if you don't have a handsome baby face, then you have to have the ability of Spider-Man!"

- The bar they were in, not far from the hospital they came out of, was the same "cider house" where Sally had drunk last time. After sneaking here from the hospital, several times the tequila belly, the atmosphere between the two immediately warmed up.

"Spider-Man, I didn't expect Sally to be a girl who likes to read comics!"

"No, I'm not. ”

Sally did not hesitate to veto it,

"It's just that I heard that a big director seems to want to adapt this manga into a movie, so I did some homework. ”

"Do you want to play Mary Jane?"

Charlotte really didn't expect Sally to have such an idea.

"What's so strange?"

Sally was spitting wine in her mouth, her eyes were clouded, and she was obviously a little drunk.

"If I can play the heroine, even if I want to appear naked, it's no problem to have sex over the Brooklyn Bridge!"

This one......

Charlotte shrugged her shoulders and finally decided not to be like a drunkard.

He beckoned to the bartender for two eggnogs — a drink that fits the Christmas Eve mood perfectly, and this bar just so happens to be able to offer them — and handed one of them to Sally.

"It's Christmas Eve, Mary Jane, and I wish you a speedy dream come true, Brooklyn Bridge!"

He raised the cup in his hand and blinked,

“Merry Christmas!”

“Merry Christmas!”

Sally took a sip of eggnog and sent holiday greetings to her mother. Mom had a happy smile on her face that she hadn't seen for a long time, and she gently grabbed Dad's hand.

Father!?

The sweet eggnog in her mouth instantly turned into the taste of soapy water, and Sally woke up suddenly.

"It turned out to be a dream!"

Sally sighed softly, a bitterness slipping through her heart.

"Wait, where is this?"

The drowsiness faded, reason returned, and Sally suddenly realized what the most important question was right now-

"It was good that it was my own bed. ”

The girl who still had some headaches reached out and groped around on the bed,

"There was no one else lying around. ”

Sally breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment-

"Where's my clothes?"

At this time, although she was not lying on the bed in the same way as when she was born, except for the thin blanket covering the seductive carcass, the number of clothes left is enough to compare with the working state when she was a lingerie model before.

"Sleeping Beauty woke up?"

Just as she was nervous and suspicious, a man's voice rang out at the door. Sally turned her head to look, and sure enough—

Charlotte didn't wear long pants, only a sleeveless vest on her upper body, and her gauze head was originally a little funny, but in Sally's eyes at this time, it was so ugly and disgusting.

"Your wine is really bad, when you get drunk, you not only cry and make trouble, but you also like to vomit on people's bodies......"

The man was rambling on something, but Sally didn't listen to it at all, her head was buzzing, and her right hand unconsciously touched under the mattress—

“...... It took me a long time to get you back, and it's a shame that you're so drunk that you can remember where your door opened. My clothes have been spit out of shape by you, you see-"

In the middle of speaking, Charlotte's voice suddenly stopped, and in front of him, Sally, who was wearing only underwear, held a gun in her right hand, and the muzzle of the black hole hole was facing him.
