The Greatest Showman - Chapter 2114

[2078 Sound the horn]

“Knock-knock.”

“Knock-knock.”

Matthew raised his hand and knocked on the door panel. Although he knew that Renly didn’t have any response was a high probability event, he still stood at the door and waited for a while before pushing the room away. The door, the shading curtains tightly blocked all the halo of the outside world, but only revealed a hazy blue light, just like being in the abyss of the sea. The mystery in the room, the warm air surging in the room, makes people feel comfortable and comfortable soaking in the hot spring, and the muscles relax.

Turning on the night light at the door, Matthew went straight to the window, pulled the three-layer thick curtain directly, “tear”, and the gray light sprinkled all over the floor,

although it was still a cloudy day outside, Layers of clouds and mist block the sun, and the colors of early winter have been filled before autumn has officially entered. Large areas of gray linger between the streets and buildings. The shimmering light was dyed with a layer of light milky white, and it seemed that even the solemn and solemn air was quietly permeating, and I couldn’t help shivering.

“…” There were vague mutterings from the bed, and when he turned around, he could see Lan Li, who had covered his head with the quilt, squirming like a spring silkworm. He lost his usual arrogance and coldness, and expressed his dissatisfaction in his own way.

“Renly, you have to get up.” Matthew stood at the end of the bed and answered him with a throw pillow that flew over. He dodged it familiarly, and then repeated, “Renly, it’s time to get up. ”

Give me another five minutes.” Renly’s hoarse voice came from under the covers, lazy and sleepy, his thick nasal voice revealing the sleepiness of not getting enough sleep.

Matthew didn’t urge Renly any more, and when he turned around, he could see Renly’s clothes and slippers piled on the ground. He couldn’t help but bend over to pack them up one by one, and then sorted out all the messy documents on the desk, although he knew Renly for nearly two years. Ten years, he’d grown accustomed to Renly’s informality, but every so often, he was still full of confusion: How on earth could that guy mess up the house in one night?

That could be considered an ability, right?

Using small appliances such as folders and isolation boards, Matthew tidyed up the entire desk clearly, and all items were classified into categories, arranged neatly one by one according to type, content, year, author, etc., which revealed the original desktop. The appearance of the whole visual effect is much refreshed.

Turning around, only to find scattered documents on the indoor sofa and reclining chair. Matthew stood there for a moment and paused for a while, then stepped forward again, picked up the few letters, glanced quickly, and then You can see that Renly is familiar with himself,

You Long walked snake and wrote:

“When others return home, I still walk on the road until I reach the other side (the-other-side), or nothing is accomplished.”

Matthew’s movements paused slightly, feeling carefully As those words collided between lips and teeth, and finally repeated, “E-undone”, the bland words have been simplified, telling the stubbornness and sadness hidden in the depths of the soul. .

When everyone else has returned home, he is still walking alone on the road of chasing his dreams, looking forward to reaching the other side of the world, not hitting the southern wall or looking back, maybe because he refuses to compromise and surrender, maybe because he chooses Giving up also means rejecting himself, perhaps because… he has no harbor to return to, so all he can do is continue to run wildly until he reaches the other side.

“The-other-side?” Matthew raised his voice.

After waiting for a while, Renly’s voice came out from the quilt, “On my side.”

This made Matthew’s mouth couldn’t help showing a smile, “I thought it was the opposite side of George and Elizabeth. .”

Renly lifted the quilt, but still lay on the spot, staring at the ceiling above his head, “The first thought was this, to achieve success, realize dreams, and create the other side of brilliance, because only the disappointed, It is the losers who stay on this side and refuse to admit defeat to themselves.”

“But then I realized that I think differently from them, and have very different definitions of success and dreams, so I don’t want to go to the other side of their opposition, My world should not be based on them. So, I will go to my side at my own pace.”

Renly’s voice was still a little hoarse and lazy, and those words were not as powerful as usual. , but the tenacity and certainty that hides it is consistent.

Then, Renly hugged the quilt, turned his head to look in Matthew’s direction, and a smile appeared in the corner of his mouth, “That’s just an essay from last night, and the melody hasn’t been matched yet. Poetry is not like poetry or prose. It’s like prose, and it’s not like an essay, and it should be full of question marks to read.”

“New album?” Matthew asked, hearing Renly’s hoarse “um”, he continued, “I remember, you were in There’s also a folder in New York, it’s all your creations, and many of them are unfinished, half or a few lines, are you sure you don’t need to fill them in?”

“Ha. Don’t remind me of that.” Renly buried his head in the pillow and complained sullenly, “I don’t have time, I think the new album may have to open the skylight, ah, sure enough, I’m not suitable for being a singer, creating an album or something, it’s really tortured, I don’t even have a concept.”

“…” Matthew’s head was covered with black lines, “The drafts left in New York should have exceeded the weight of an album?”

“The number of songs is indeed the same, but they It’s not necessarily suitable for the same album, I need a theme, and the creation so far is still relatively scattered.” Renly said honestly, “Either I will complete the creation with sincerity, or simply give up, otherwise it is just a consumer fan. .”

Matthew nodded lightly and did not continue arguing. Regarding artistic creation, Renly is the party who has the right to speak, and he is the party of the general public. Thinking of this, Matthew suddenly became curious, ” Can I join your side?”

“You’ve always been my side.” Renly answered without any hesitation, with a faint smile in his voice.

Matthew cast his gaze away, and then saw Renly’s gleaming eyes, which seemed to be reflecting the stars in the sky, he paused, “…Can’t you regret it?”

“Sorry, there is no way out.” Lan Li’s eyes widened, his face innocent but very firm.

Matthew just nodded slightly, “Okay.” This made Renly laugh happily, and Matthew continued, “It’s time to get up. How are you, are you ready?”

“Of course.” Renly said lightly, “I don’t think there’s anything special about today, it’s a brand new day just like the past week.”

Matthew put the letterhead in his desk folder and said casually. , “Then we’ll have to speed up. Another busy day ahead.”

“…Okay.” This time it was Renly’s turn to pause, helplessly saying.

It has been a week since I arrived in London.

In the past period of time, Renly did not stop to adjust, and started to move without stopping, sounding the horn of return.

However, Renly’s tactics and approach are very special.

He did not appear in high-profile parties or public occasions, but appeared one after another in private clubs or art galleries. It’s purely a vacation; moreover, it’s not a secret vacation, and the relevant itinerary can always be found if you want to.

Gradually, the news spread by word of mouth.

Some people saw Renly in the British Empire Museum, some people saw Renly and Arthur, Andre and others in a private club, and some people saw Renly and Matthew playing tennis in Wimbledon. , Renly was seen at Liverpool’s racecourse…and
