Five Hundred and Ninety Seventh Style of Acting

"Not waiting for Maxim?"

Ollie had just finished speaking, and the follow-up sound settled down, and the sound was automatically muted, and he cast his eyes towards Ronan and Cliff uncertainly for help:

What should they do?

If it was Alice, things would be much simpler; but now facing Johnny, it feels really weird. They still have a lot of things to get used to slowly, and the familiar attitude and way of getting along seem to need to be adjusted, especially just now. The episode happened, what should I do?

But Johnny still maintained a professional and calm attitude, "No, just wait until he arrives and catch up with the progress."

Ollie and Cliff both looked at Ronan, their slightly flickering eyes revealed uncertainty, and Ronan still needs to make up his mind.

Johnny also seemed to have expected it, and looked at Ronan as well, waiting for Ronan's answer.

"..." Ronan thought about it carefully, and there were many thoughts in his mind, "Johnny, you have your own style of acting, I trust your professional judgment, but it involves our personal situation, I hope you can discuss with us. If there is time to complete the communication, then let us know in advance; if there is no time, we need to communicate afterwards.”

"It's like installing a surveillance app on your phone, we need to have the right to know, at least you should tell us."

Ronan's words made Ollie and Cliff both nod in agreement.

Johnny was not surprised, and there was no special ups and downs in his emotions. "If you refuse, will you bear the consequences yourself?"

"Everyone needs to be responsible for their own choices, even if we don't want to, things are the same, what do you think?" Ronan didn't simply answer, but asked a question instead.

Johnny nodded slightly, "That's fair."

Ronan let out a sigh of relief, brand new partners, they all need to adjust.

Although it is said that the king is the employer and they can fire Johnny at any time, Ronan also believes that an excellent professional manager can help the band to a higher level and clearly plan their career, so they also need Johnny. Ni's help.

Help each other to achieve a win-win situation.

After just two months of cooperation, the two parties are still in the running-in stage. The habits of daily life and the style of dealing with people are adapting to each other. Obviously, there are still many things that need to be communicated.

Like today, unexpectedly suddenly learned that Johnny was "watching" them,

Really creepy and chilling.

Now, Johnny nodded in agreement, and both Ollie and Cliff breathed a sigh of relief, their tense heartstrings relaxing.

Ronan is no exception.

Smooth communication is the most basic element of cooperation.

However, before the exhaled breath could be squeezed out of his chest, Ronan paused slightly, carefully studying Johnny's expression——

Is the communication too smooth?

Johnny didn't even elaborate on his concerns and why he was doing it, and it was just that Ronan and the others expressed some discomfort and Johnny backed down and gave up?

Things seem to be amiss.

From the perspective of "personality", it shouldn't be so simple.

Since Johnny dared to deceive the band members into implanting the surveillance application software, and displayed it generously, without any intention of avoiding the band members, this also means that Johnny expected the current result, then... the situation at this time is also Johnny Did you figure it out?

Ronan frowned slightly, stared at Johnny carefully, and then said hesitantly, "Even if we object, you will still install the surveillance application, right? Even if you close and cancel it in person, you will secretly reinstall it again, Right?"

At first, he was a little hesitant, but as he spoke, Ronan became sure——

Yang obeys and Yin violates.

He believed Johnny would dare to do that, and treated them like fools.

Ollie slowly opened his mouth wide, and looked at Johnny in disbelief, with surprise in his eyes, eagerly hoping that Johnny could deny it aloud.

Cliff gradually came back to his senses, stared at Johnny meaningfully, and carefully reorganized the context of the whole thing because of Ronan's words, and then Cliff found that Ronan's guess was very, very reasonable, although They didn't know Johnny well, but it always felt like Johnny's style.

Johnny raised his eyes, met Ronan's gaze, did not speak immediately, but looked at Ronan carefully, paused for a moment, and then the smile on the corner of his mouth rose slightly, although it was not obvious, but the smile conveyed But it couldn't be more obvious, he nodded his head slightly to express his affirmation.

"Johnny! How can you!" Oli's eyeballs were about to fall out, but after the voice shouted out, he immediately realized the club's environment, turned his head around in a panic, and sat down again while suppressing his voice , looking anxiously at Ronan and Cliff, trying to ask for help.

Johnny ignored Ollie, just met Ronan's gaze, "You don't seem surprised." This is an affirmative sentence.

Ronan shook his head, and replied half-jokingly, "It's just that I concealed it better."

Neither Ronan nor Cliff exploded directly like before. Seeing this, Ollie forced himself to calm down a little, but his heartburn still made him fidget. He wanted to confirm his phone on the spot, but Not sure if uninstalling the app now does the trick.

Johnny knew that now was his time to explain.

In fact, similar situations have happened before—and more than once, but most people are furious, and they are not willing to give Johnny the time and space to explain. Over time, Johnny gave up, and there seems to be no explanation .

But Johnny was very surprised by Ronan's calmness and patience. He thought about it, maybe...he could explain it?

"...I once led a jazz band, and the trumpet in it was a pretty bad guy, but he was a genius, maybe the best trumpet in thirty years, and every time I saw him, I could Thinking of countless big men in their prime, I believe he can make a new history, and maybe he can write a new chapter for the Jazz."

Johnny, with his tone still calm, slowly and unhurriedly told the story of the past.

"But his private life is a mess. He often drinks to pieces, or indulges in the psychedelic world of those powders. Being late is commonplace, and it is not uncommon to miss performances."

"Smartphones just came out at that time, and they didn't have as many functions as they do now, so every time he disappeared, the only thing I could do was to keep calling until the phone ran out of power and turned off."

Having said that, Johnny raised his head and showed a shallow smile, which was obviously a laugh, but with a strong sense of irony.

"You won't believe where I found him. I found him once by a pier on the Hudson River, half his body tilted out, rickety, sleeping in a pile of garbage, and he had no idea how close he was to death. close."

The memory drifted away slowly, and Johnny fell silent.
