Chapter 624 624 The Wheel of History
After the lunch meeting, Samora drove Hugo home in the car. Samora was obviously very interested in the cooking of today's lunch meeting, "You know? For many dishes, chefs come to the office with materials and use the simple kitchen. When the equipment came out, I talked with those chefs for a long time. Although they all said that many cooking methods are secrets, I still learned a lot, which is really wonderful..."
Hugo couldn't help laughing, "No wonder I almost didn't see you. You went to the kitchen, and I wondered why I didn't see you at the buffet table."
"That's because I always find the best source of food. You didn't have caviar, right? I ate it in the kitchen, haha!" Samora said triumphantly. If he hadn't been driving, he probably could have danced. .
Just as Samora was talking about his excitement, Hugo's cell phone rang. Hugo smiled and asked "what does caviar taste like?" while looking for the cell phone according to the direction of the ringtone, and then picked it up. "Hello, Hugo Lancaster."
"Hey, Hugo, it's me, Michael." Michael's usual thin and weak voice came from the other end of the phone, but he didn't know if it was Hugo's illusion. He always felt that Michael seemed to be weaker today, and the voice seemed to be at any moment. All will be cut off.
Hugo patted the cushion of the driver's seat and said to Samora, "Pull the car to the side." Then he picked up the phone again, "Michael, are you going to call me to congratulate you on the New Year? Ten hours left in 1994."
Samora also noticed the tension in Hugo's voice, and quickly pulled the car to the side and stopped. Fortunately, he hadn't driven on Santa Monica Avenue, otherwise parking would be troublesome. After stopping the car, Samora sat quietly where she was, even trying to keep her breathing in a low voice, lest it disturb Hugo.
At this time, Hugo was indeed completely tense, because he heard Michael say, "Hugo, I can't keep going, I'm sorry." This made Hugo feel like a bolt from the blue in an instant, he worked so hard , He persisted for so long, but in the end there is no way to change history? Is the wheel of history still rolling forward relentlessly? So does this mean that Michael Jackson could not avoid the fate of falling in grief and pain after all; then does it also mean that the future of "Hugo Lancaster" has never been heard of at all Actors will also be buried in the long river of history?
"Why!" Hugo couldn't imagine, he couldn't believe it, and the questioning voice blurted out, but after he said it, he realized that he was still too excited, took a deep breath, adjusted his tone and tried to calmly say, "Michael, you Knowing that you're innocent, and everyone knows that the Chandlers are disgusting liars, why don't you keep going? Maybe just keep going and the truth will be revealed, won't it?"
"Hugo, I'm sorry, you believe in me so much that you are even willing to bet your career for me, but, but I don't think I can continue." Michael's voice was full of countless tiredness, the reason why he gave rain Guo called because Hugo's previous actions moved him. A rising star with a thriving career was willing to stand by his side at such a critical moment. This is not a task that ordinary people can accomplish. Now, Michael wants to give up, he feels that he seems to have failed Hugo's efforts, so he decides that he should tell Hugo, at least not let Hugo know the news from the media.
Hugo heard the almost hopeless gray in Michael's voice, all the words stuck in his throat, Hugo knew, he would never know what terrible things Michael had gone through, and he would never know how to face the whole world. Whether he can persist like Michael for so long when he pours dirty water on himself, he doesn't even know that if he is stabbed in the back like Michael by the only person he trusts in his life, he can still insist on "holding hope"... He can understand All this, but he's not Michael, he's not a party, all "I understand" is crap, crap without any power.
Therefore, Hugo was speechless, his clever words were stuck in his throat, and Michael's desperate voice blocked him from saying a word.
Michael seemed to be aware of Hugo's mixed emotions through the microphone. He believed that Hugo was not less affected than himself at the moment. As long as he had watched Hugo's astonishing speech in front of reporters, few people would be unwilling to believe this young man. 's remarks, which is also an important reason why Michael has gained breathing time in the past two weeks. Both the media and the Chandler father and son were shocked by Hugo's momentum.
"Hugo, I had a physical examination yesterday." Michael's voice came from the microphone, and then Hugo just felt like he was stuck in his throat. After all, it happened. After all, he still couldn't stop the wheel of history. The physical examination was a devastating blow to Michael, destroying almost all of Michael's self-esteem and confidence, as well as his poor health.
Historically, after Jordan Chandler depicted Michael's genitals, the police accepted the request of Chandler and his son to try to conduct a physical examination on Michael. After much hesitation, Michael decided to cooperate with the police to prove his innocence. Immediately, the police and doctors entered Neverland and conducted a 25-minute physical examination on Michael. Lawyers for both Michael and Chandler, a doctor, a prosecutor, a Jackson bodyguard and a A photographer in the room participated in the inspection.
The doctor's examination concluded that Michael Jackson's genital morphology was very similar to Jordan Chandler's description, including the details of Michael's **********, but the doctor said that this case The investigation is not conclusive because it is not conclusive evidence and cannot be used in court as evidence of a conviction.
But this physical examination still had a great impact on Michael's body and mind, because doctors and police conducted detailed examinations on all parts of his body, and took photos and videos of all parts of his genitals, ****, buttocks, etc. This simply completely destroyed Michael's self-esteem and personality, and has since become a psychological shadow of Michael.
In fact, the investigation and evidence in the past few months have put Michael's body in a very bad state. He began to lose his appetite, have frequent nightmares, and take higher doses of painkillers, including many prescription painkillers. During these few months, Michael lost nearly ten kilograms of weight, and his spirit was gradually lethargic, and he even went to London for a few months of rehabilitation.
Due to his poor health, Michael had to end his "dangerous" world tour early, cancelling his final performances in Australia and the United States. Michael's dependence on drugs, which caused irreparable damage to his body, is believed to be one of the causes of death when he eventually died.
"Hugo, remember what we talked about when we first met?" Michael said weakly.
Hugo twitched the corners of his mouth and tried to make some noises, but he found that his voice was a little hoarse, unusually hoarse, "Yes, we discussed those hateful crows." Hugo only felt very sighed, He has worked hard for so long, but he still can't stop the wheel of history, and now he is on the phone with Michael, does he want to witness the fall of the Uranus superstar this time? He doesn't want that.
"Hehe, I can now imagine your awe-inspiring appearance when you face the crows, look at those crows, all of them are speechless by your words, I think, very few people can put these damn crows to death. , this really makes people applaud." Michael rarely said a long sentence, and there were some faint smiles in his weak voice, but this couldn't make Hugo laugh.
Hugo tried to pull the corner of his mouth, but unfortunately failed, only to hear Michael continue, "I know very well that those allegations are false, but the crows don't want to believe it, they are always hyping, hyping, hyping, even if There is no new evidence, they are always looking for opportunities to attack me, and even they are eager to discuss when my music career will end, it is really ridiculous, when I create brilliant, they chase after me Me; and now, they want to bury me with their own hands. Maybe, this is the vicious circle of the entertainment industry."
"But, Michael, you can't just surrender like this. If you surrender to these crows, that's a real failure." Hugo couldn't help but want to fight again. During the Golden Globes event, Hugo also once Thought maybe that was the case, but now Hugo knew it wasn't, "You can never admit defeat or be weak in the face of crows, because they will never go away, on the contrary, they will always be waiting for them again. The chance to hit you, so, absolutely cannot give up, absolutely cannot surrender, otherwise these crows will soon eat you alive, just like trying those witches."
Michael listened to Hugo's words full of surging vitality, but suddenly burst out with a strong resentment, "I know, I know, I also want to persevere, I also want to prove my innocence, so I accept the shameful I want to prove my innocence, because I am completely innocent, I am completely innocent!" At this point, Michael began to cough sharply, as if he was choking because he spoke too quickly, but he Forcibly endured, and said helplessly for a while, "But they always don't want to let me go, there is no end, everything in front of them has no end..."
Hugo didn't want to force Michael, because he couldn't imagine how much pressure was on Michael's shoulders at this time. He was not the client, and he would never know the feeling. He was not qualified to ask Michael to continue to be strong; but Hugo didn't want to give up, Not only because of his personality, but also because he knew Michael wouldn't give up easily, "So, Michael, what did you decide to do? Give up? Michael, you're a fighter, a fighter who never gives up! Don't let those crows beat you, don't !"
