1347 Collateral Damage

Remember in one second [End of the God Station] Mobile phone user input address: m.xinwanben.com

Tonight's concert went well without any mistakes or accidents, and in the second half of the performance, there was a wonderful on-the-spot performance segment. When the performance ended, the audience stood up and applauded, sending the conductor and the trumpet to the show. Fanatical applause, this is really a kind of enjoyment.

Now that there is such a turbulent crowd outside the David Geffen Hall, it is obviously not because of the accident of the performance, so it must be because of the presence of important people in the VIP box. This is also the most reasonable explanation, as it was at the Almeida Theatre or the Richard Rogers Theatre, which is the same reason.

"Looks like there should be someone big in today's concert." Renly lowered his voice and said mockingly, neither Damien nor Rooney could refute, and looked at them with a speechless expression, expressing complaints, Renly said. Gently shrugged, "I know, we must leave as soon as possible, otherwise the scene may become chaotic."

Renly did not forget that he was also a "public figure", and once he was recognized in such a situation, the scene would be out of control.

Damien and Rooney didn't know what was going on outside. They were just complaining about Renly's so-called "big man". Now that Renly still has self-knowledge, they didn't say anything more, just whispered. Discuss: Is it too late to go through the back door now? Will there be a large crowd there too?

"Renly-Hall!"

Suddenly, a shocking call burst out in the hustle and bustle of noise, brushing the ground, and all eyes were projected in the same direction.

Renly laughed dumbly, cast his eyes at Damien, Rooney and the others, and said in a low voice, "I didn't expect it to be exposed so soon, what should I do now? Should I stay alone? Then you guys Escape as a group? Are all the scripts written like this in war movies?"

Even at this moment, Renly had the heart to joke.

Apparently, Renly didn't realize what was going on.

After a concert, the act of righteousness has been completely forgotten, it is just a hands-on effort, and there is nothing to be commended; so Renly just thought that they had accidentally discovered the relationship between himself and Rooney. Whereabouts, driven by gossip emotions, incidental attention and attention, this is just "collateral damage".

Compared to Renly, who is "unsavvy", Rooney vaguely sensed the abnormality, but for a while, she couldn't accurately capture the ins and outs, and couldn't tell why.

And Damien, Simmons and others are even more confused and have no clue at all.

But they also didn't have time to react, let alone escape. Because all the crowds swarmed in the direction of Renly and his group, and quickly surrounded them like a tide, even completely ignoring the other audience members who had just left the David-Geffen Hall, the order at the scene was a little chaotic.

This wasn't the first time Renly had dealt with such a situation.

Renly didn't move, and stood in the same place. Only in this way would the crowds keep moving in the same direction, instead of completely disrupting the rhythm with vertical and horizontal movements, causing more confusion; more The important thing is that after taking his footsteps as the center of the circle, the order at the scene can be stabilized slightly.

This is relatively safe practice.

Sure enough, the surging crowd arrived at Renly's side one after another. After a small bump, the order of the scene was temporarily controlled. Before Renly could ask questions, they swarmed one after another.

"Renly, may I ask what happened to the robbery just now?"

"How exactly did it happen?"

"What were you thinking at the time? Why did you choose to take the initiative?"

"Didn't you think you'd get hurt?"

"Someone at the scene witnessed you and Rooney appearing together. Is this true?"

"Are you and Rooney dating? How long has it been going on? From the time of 'Gravity'?"

"Can you tell me in detail the ins and outs of the robbery?"

...

Renly looked slightly surprised. He didn't expect that the reporters were actually exploring this question.

Turning their heads, Renly and Rooney exchanged glances.

Rooney was slightly surprised for a moment, but it didn't last long, she immediately nodded lightly, all her doubts seemed to be able to be explained, she couldn't help showing a shallow smile, "They are all for you Here." It seemed that a hint of schadenfreude could be captured.

Renly raised his eyebrows slightly and replied calmly, "They're here for you too."

Rooney rolled her eyes helplessly, expressing a silent rant.

A smile appeared in Renly's eyes, and it was only for a moment that the eyes met, and then he looked at the reporters in front of him again, "So, did you come here specially for this matter?"

After getting the affirmative answer of nodding, Renly laughed dumbly, "It's not a big deal. There were four gangsters hurting a delivery man on the side of the road. We got out of the car and drank them back, and helped complete the police action. , that's all."

"..."

The reporters were collectively aphasia. Under Renly's description, all the thrilling and all the ups and downs became dull, and it seemed that there was no need to discuss at all.

, even they themselves felt a sense of stupidity; but the reporters still did not give up easily, according to the situation learned at the scene and the details described by Kianush, they began to ask questions bit by bit.

Not only Renly, but Rooney also became the object of questioning.

Before you know it, Renly and Rooney are standing side by side in front of the reporter, looking like a couple being interviewed.

What's even more exaggerated is that Simmons, Justin and others are all standing beside them, their hands crossed on their chests, showing the expression of watching a good show from the sidelines, especially Damien is still "pointing the country", constantly pointing his head. , as if the director was directing the actors to perform.

The scene is kind of funny.

The only exception is Melissa.

Melissa was quietly moving her footsteps, going upstream in the surging crowd, and finally squeezed behind Renly and Rooney, quietly standing behind Rooney's shoulders, her eyes quickly searching, yes. Looking at the reporter's camera, he showed a sweet smile, then quietly raised his right hand and gestured with a scissors hand.

No reporter noticed Melissa, and all eyes were focused on the two protagonists, but the fast flashing lights still recorded the whole picture.

Justin Hurwitz caught Melissa's movements faintly from the corner of his eyes, but Melissa's male partner was also standing next to him tonight, and the other party didn't say much. Close your mouth and pretend you don't see it.

Melissa thought her movements were so secretive that no one noticed; in fact, Renly had already noticed.

Because the aristocrats always keep their distance from the habit, and because of the chaotic incident of fans at Lincoln Center, Renly pays special attention to the flow of people in the crowd, especially the surging near the body, consciously or unconsciously, Out of the corner of your eye, you can always catch a figure dangling nearby.

Vaguely, Renly could see the meaning of Melissa's actions. While he doesn't think it's necessary, it's everyone's choice, and there's nothing special about it. He won't support it, but he won't oppose it either.

Renly still focused his attention and looked at the reporters in front of him, "I don't think this is a very important matter. Since you already know the news, who knows whether the current situation of the deliveryman has been confirmed. Are you safe and sound?"

Faced with Renly's question, all the reporters looked at each other, but no one could answer.

Renly shrugged helplessly, even though he didn't say a word, the meaning couldn't be more obvious. They're just a bunch of opportunists who don't care about the real protagonist of the event, but can't wait to come to Lincoln Center to wait for two people who are not in any potential danger, just because of their public figures.

"If anyone gets the latest news, hopefully they'll let me know in time," Renly said with a smile. He didn't mean to condemn, but the irony was revealed.

In the face of reporters and fans, Renly can show different states, and he can always make reporters feel embarrassed between silent. Today is no exception.

The brief silence caused a quiet change in the momentum between the interviewer and the interviewee.

Finally, a reporter broke the silence and asked aloud, "Criminal incidents are not uncommon in New York, even in Manhattan. When passing by in a taxi, the first reaction in my mind was not hesitation, or Call the police? Did you really think of yourself as a superhero when you chose to rush forward?"

A simple rhetorical question, but the needle is hidden in the cotton, and the attack is launched in an ironic way. Especially the last sentence, full of aggression, even subtly mocking Renly for making news on purpose and pretending to be a superhero.

Renly didn't get angry, but chuckled. "What did I do wrong, why do people always think I'm a superhero? Or is every Hollywood actor a superhero?"

Renly is still Renly, a way of sarcasm, vaguely complaining: he has nothing to do with superheroes; further, Renly is still complaining about the solitary hero model of Hollywood movies, gradually forming a fixed illusion , as if every Hollywood actor should be a superhero in life.

After the little joke was over, Renly's smile faded and his expression became serious, "Besides, I don't think this is such a special decision. I just made a choice that a normal person should make, this is What I have to do. I'm not the type to pull out my phone and take pictures in a crisis situation."

Who would pull out their phone to take a photo in a crisis situation?

Many will, and journalists are the first to bear the brunt.
