Chapter 1809 Chapter 1809

Hugo sat on a low stool in front of the makeup mirror in the RV, looking at his reflection in the mirror. This feeling is very strange, but also very familiar, as if at a certain moment, he will start to think, who is the person in the mirror, not himself at all. But, if it's not me, then why am I sitting here, and who is the person in the mirror?

This mysterious and mysterious state made Hugo's thoughts completely enter a quiet and closed space.

Why did he choose the role of Ed in the first place? Because he thinks this role is very interesting and it is a brand new challenge, so where is the challenge? How did the role of Ed attract him? Compared with the other two main characters, what is so special about Ed?

Hugo's thoughts drifted into the mirror little by little, and it seemed that slowly, the person in the mirror was gradually evolving into Ed's appearance.

Ed Eisley, whose full name should be Edmund Eisley, became a police officer of the homicide squad at a young age. He has a bright future in the police system, but not because he is "Ed", but Because he is "Aisley", his father, Preston Aisley, is a well-known legendary hero in Los Angeles. A legend in the Los Angeles police circle, even the media and ordinary people are familiar with this name.

It is a pity that the gangster who managed to escape after killing Preston was never caught. This has also become an unsolved case in the history of Los Angeles, which has added a legendary color to Preston's deeds.

The young Ed experienced his father's glory, but also experienced the pain of losing his father. For him, his father is the hero of the world, his role model and idol, and his strength to keep moving forward. After losing his father, his life completely collapsed, even shattered, but he had no time to grieve, because his mother needed him to grow up and become the man of the family; because his father's grievances required him to grow up and do justice.

So Ed followed in his father's footsteps and became a police officer. He was a police officer, and relied on his unremitting efforts to enter the homicide squad representing the elite, just hoping to really catch the gangster. In order to remind his father's murder all the time, he himself named the gangster who has no identity, no name, and no clues who is still at large: Rollo Tomasi.

Rollo Tomasi, this became the motivation for Ed to enter the police force, and also became the motivation for him to continue to persist and work hard.

However, after entering the police force, Ed discovered that the world is not that simple. There are many people in the police station who are idle all day long, just eating public rations, but unwilling to contribute; They even colluded with the underground industry for personal gain; in addition, some people were indiscriminate, causing unjust and wrongly decided cases, good people are no longer good people, and bad people are no longer bad people; Opinion, against the entire police station, the entire society...

The so-called justice, the so-called justice, seems to have become blurred, and even the gray area between black and white has increased.

Even more frightening, Ed realized that even though he was trying, the surname "Aisley" was like a curse, tightly clasped on his head. If he tries his best and succeeds in solving the case, people will say that because he is Eisley, the tiger father has no sons; if he can't find any clues after racking his brains, then people will think that he is far inferior to his father and has dragged Eisley down. the honor of the name of Eisley; if he chooses to give up, people will lament that the surname of Eisley has not been able to continue to be passed on; Eisley's brilliance.

No matter what choices he makes, no matter what achievements he achieves, no matter what difficulties he goes through, the surname "Eisley" can become all his annotations. Once upon a time, his father was his pride and his vision; but now, his father's great achievements have become his burden and burden.

At a certain moment that even he himself can’t remember, he gave up—not leaving the police, but giving up his excuses. Luo Luo Tomasi is no longer the driving force for him to move forward. The name "Eisley" became the true representative of the Eisley family and became his biggest motivation.

Finding Roro Tomasi seems to be no longer important, and he has even forgotten the name for a long, long time.

He wants to get rid of his father's shadow, he wants to prove his ability, he wants to copy or even surpass his father's achievements. So, he began to become unscrupulous, he learned to use the aura of the name Aisley to promote himself; he learned to use the contacts left by his father in the police world to benefit himself; He has learned to play tricks, cater to his boss, suppress his subordinates, cooperate with each other, and rise up step by step; he has learned to be cold-blooded and ruthless, and to use the so-called "legal weapon" to protect himself and arm himself...

Ambition began to swell slowly, and gradually became Ed Eisley's sole purpose in serving in the police force. In order to be promoted, he did not hesitate to betray his colleagues and even his boss, just to be able to stand out and write the glory that belongs to Ed Eisley.

Even so, the panic, inferiority and conscience deep in Ed's heart are still condemning his behavior. He envied Jack for being able to work both ways, and even became a representative of the police; he envied Bud's uprightness and justice, and his inner kindness became a ray of light in a dark society; He is omnipotent; he envies the sincere emotion between Bud and Lynn, that true trust seems to be able to dispel the loneliness and loneliness in his heart...

He has never been able to find his true position in the police station. No one is willing to trust him, and no one is willing to really talk to him. To be more precise, everyone hates him, and his last name is Ashley. I hate his self-righteousness, his useless efforts, and his unscrupulous methods...

Ed wants to be like Jack, and wants to be like Bud. But he knew that he had no choice, so he chose to arm himself with excessive self-confidence, and even belittled the other party, telling himself in this way that this persistence is correct, and the end of this road is the truly beautiful future .

That kind of inner conflict, only he himself knows, but he can't let others see his fragility, because then he will be defeated. He must learn to hide his fragility and confusion, and bury those emotions such as kindness, innocence, justice, panic, timidity, and hesitation, so...

He combed his hair with pomade, his hair was neatly backed up, and he was meticulous, as if even the strong wind could not affect the slightest bit; he carefully buttoned every button of his shirt and smoothed every corner of the fold , carefully tied the traditional Windsor knot, and then straightened the tie bit by bit; he suppressed the smile on the corner of his mouth, and used a poker face to cover up all his emotions, whether it was joy or panic, thin His face outlines his image of impartiality and impartiality, and the real desire. Hope to hide.

Looking at the man in the mirror, the confusion in the amber eyes was slowly settling, he opened his mouth and said softly, "Ed Eisley, you represent justice! Everything you do is justice! You did all of this to make this society better! In the face of real social safety, all private emotions are superfluous and wasted. We should not be sympathetic or kind, only the law and justice is the only measure! So, Ed Eisley, you're right."

Ed's voice changed from small to loud. It was just a low whisper at first, but gradually the volume became normal. The voice that was not loud was powerful and resonant, and the firm light in his eyes made people look sideways. But... I always feel that there is something wrong, where is it?

Are his eyes too gentle? Or did his eyes reveal too much information, those longings, those firmnesses, those persistence... and those lights, good and bad, too much, he shouldn't let people see through his true thoughts, even if they are correct s things.

Ed lowered his head and bit the tip of his tongue lightly with his teeth. On the surface, he still didn't see any changes, but the pain from the tip of his tongue made his brain clear. Then, Ed opened the drawer in front of him one by one, and then the makeup box next to him, and searched around slowly and unhurriedly. After a while, he finally found what he wanted: eyes.

He picked up a pair of black-rimmed glasses and tried them on, but found that they made him look a little sunny, so he took them off; then he tried a pair of rimless glasses, which felt... a bit treacherous, matching The calm eyes looked a little hostile; then, he picked up the pair of gold-rimmed glasses, he hesitated, because they looked like the glasses of a university professor, they were too pedantic, but he still wore them Get up and try it out.

Ed in the mirror has a dull, nerdy image. His impartial and neutral demeanor makes him look like an inconspicuous good boy, but he doesn't look like a police officer at all. However, something was still missing, so the corners of Ed's mouth rose slightly, and he outlined a slight smile, and with a little more hidden pride, the whole feeling rushed over him immediately.

Ed organized all the makeup boxes in an orderly manner again, then took off his gold-rimmed glasses, wiped them carefully with a glasses cloth, put them on again, and looked at himself in the mirror, "I like helping others." Said After that, Ed paused for a moment, as if he was seriously thinking about what he said just now, then nodded his chin slightly, he stood up, picked up his police cap, turned around and walked towards the exit with steady steps, opened the Through the door, the sun shines in.
