2046 southern style
“Sorry, please understand our work, can I ask who is the passenger in the back seat?？”
Philip can understand the work of the patrol officer, but he also has his own responsibilities, "Can I ask what the specific situation is, so I am being questioned?？”
Tough but polite, Philip expressed his rights rather than just compromise..
Faced with such a response, even if it was not a direct conflict, it was still uncomfortable. The patrol officer's tone and demeanor became stiff, "We are investigating related cases and hope you can cooperate. As for the case itself, it is not convenient for us to disclose the specific circumstances..”
“I don't need to know the circumstances of the case, I just need to know, why am I being cross-examined? "Philip still maintained a leisurely attitude and expressed his thoughts clearly. It was not to argue, but to maintain his dignity - otherwise when he was away from home, he would have to trouble his employer for every little thing, and the butler's role would be just that. Can't be reflected.
The patrol officer standing outside the driver's door also became a little impatient. "If you always refuse to cooperate with the investigation, does that mean something really went wrong?"？”
“Philip, it's okay." Before Philip continued to express his position, Renly's voice came from the back seat, with a slight smile, he seemed to have calmed down again, and his tone became lighter again, "After all, this is America." Is this complaining about the abuse of power by the American police in law enforcement?？
“What? "The patrolman also tasted the deep meaning of Renly's words, and his entire words became stern and stiff..
Philip rolled down the window of the back seat, and then Renly's face was revealed. Two patrolmen walked over one after another, and then they were both stunned - it was a completely unexpected situation. I don’t know how to deal with it for a while..
The patrolman who was negotiating with Philip also tried to straighten his back and express his dissatisfaction righteously: So what if you are Renly Hall, you still need to abide by the law, and you also need to cooperate with the investigation, no You need to show off in front of the police officers! Haven't you heard that when a prince breaks the law, he is equally guilty as the common people?！
Not everyone buys Renly's account.
Renly sensed the other party's intention in advance and said with a smile, "Sorry, it's a long flight. I still can't tell the difference between day and night, and I'm suffering from jet lag. In order to avoid disturbing my rest, some differences of opinion obviously occurred, but I think , this is just a communication issue.”
He didn't blame the other party, but he didn't admit his mistakes either. He kept enough politeness in his eloquent words, which eased the atmosphere for both parties. More importantly, Renly's face did not look good, and his slightly pale cheeks were a little red and swollen. He is still a little embarrassed. Although his eyes and expression still have that powerful aura, the fact that his physical condition is not in the best condition is also true. This seems to be supporting Renly's words in the most important way..
Such well-advised words also made the two patrol officers look at each other. Even if they wanted to be tough, they couldn't be tough. Seeing that the patrol officer who was leading the conversation was at a loss for words, the other patrol officer who had never spoken took the initiative to speak and defuse the situation. , giving both parties a step forward calmly, "Renly Hall! God, so, the rumor is that you are about to film in New Orleans, is it true?？”
“It's my honor." Renly nodded his head gently in affirmation..
“Aha! I knew it! The latter snapped his fingers cheerfully, "Jenny mentioned this to me last week and said that it would be very interesting to see you up close. By the way, we watched 'Interstellar', To be honest, I didn’t understand it, but I was still moved. Scott, what do you think?？”
The named "Scott" glanced at his partner speechlessly, seeming to express strong dissatisfaction, but in the end he could not continue to be serious and cleared his throat, "We also have work, and there have been some special circumstances recently. We need to investigate, so we have to interrogate them one by one." This is to explain their behavior - judging from the tone and demeanor, it should be regarded as an apology..
Renly nodded slightly, "Of course, this is your job..”
“Scott" added, "Sorry we can't tell you the specifics.……”
In fact, Renly isn't curious either. Maybe it's true, or maybe it's just a smokescreen to cover their abuse of power. That's not the point..
Unexpectedly, the partner next to him broke the situation again and bumped Scott with his elbow, "Renly has seen countless big scenes, how could he care about these." Then he said with a smile to Renly, "Actually, there is no such thing. No special circumstances, we were just conducting a routine spot check. Then we suddenly saw a Bentley. I couldn't help but be curious, so I stopped your car. Sorry to bother you, we just don't often see Bentleys here in Happywoods..”
Renly's eyebrows rose slightly, and he seemed to be able to detect Phillip's helpless sigh - look, nothing happened at all, but it still disturbed Renly's rest, but Renly himself didn't mind too much, "Oh? So, I'd better change my car to avoid attracting too much attention every time I travel. This is obviously not a good thing..”
“Don't worry, no, no, if you are a black man driving, you do need to pay attention here, but obviously you are not." The other party was a little... arrogant. Although it was not a big deal, his tone of voice still leaked out. A little discrimination reminds Renly: New Orleans was once the base of support for black slaves in the American South..
Instead, it was Scott who coughed twice, "Daniel！”
The Daniel waved his hand nonchalantly, looking like he didn't care too much, "It's already 2014, and there are more and more things that I can't say. Tell me, isn't it weird?？”
He thought Renly would be able to relate, but he probably wouldn't have said that if he knew Renly's soul was once an Asian..
“Hey Renly, can you sign something for us? After I go back, I can show it off! "Daniel couldn't hold back his excitement..
“Daniel! Pay attention to your words and deeds! "Scott reminded sternly..
Renly smiled but firmly refused, "I don't think this is a good idea. You are on duty, and I am not on duty right now." Signing, it was just a small thing, but Renly didn't want to.
Daniel was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting his request to be rejected, but because Renly also mentioned "on duty", he also knew that he was at work, and asking for an autograph was indeed a very unprofessional move, but , he still couldn't give up his obsession after all, his eyes wandered back and forth between Renly and Scott, and he showed a smile to hide his absurdity and speechlessness, "It's just a signature, it's just a small thing..”
Renly didn't answer, he just smiled and met Daniel's gaze. He didn't deny it, but he didn't affirm it either. He made his position clear in this way..
Daniel became a little angry, "I……”
But Scott stopped his partner in time, "Sorry, Renly, I'm sorry for wasting your time. You can leave now. I hope you have a good time in New Orleans.".”
Daniel wanted to continue to pester, but Scott blocked Daniel with his body and moved his position so that Phillip could drive away..
Vaguely, you can hear arguments coming from behind, "Who does he think he is? He must feel that he is superior to me, he must feel that he is superior, but in fact he is not mediocre, if I summon him When he gets to the police station, I can guarantee that he will immediately turn into a pussy.）！”
The subsequent curses dissipated in the strong wind, the moisture of the Mississippi River hit my face, and then the air became quiet again.
Philip tried to remain calm, but his words still expressed his position, "Master Renly, you should leave such a small matter to me..”
Renly did not refute, and nodded slightly, "I know. I just... forget it, I thought too simply..”
Renly just thought that it was not a big deal in itself. He only needed to show up to explain the situation and clear up the misunderstanding. Then there would be no problem. Things would become simpler and they could be on the road again soon; but he did not expect that things would be like this. It’s so complicated that I can’t find an accurate way to describe it: this is true for both patrolmen - the way they handle things makes Renly feel uncomfortable.
“I briefly forgot that this was the South." Renly complained again, "Apparently, this is why we are taught from childhood not to let our emotions break down. I think they must be guessing now that I am an asshole. And he's still the kind who just hides in the back seat and cries because he doesn't have the guts..”
This... even if it's self-destruction, it's still full of firepower.
Philip glanced helplessly at the rearview mirror, and could see Renly closing his eyes again and entering a state of rest. The brief emotional breakdown just now consumed all his energy and physical strength, and now Renly looks more and more tired. , he really needs a good rest.
Phillip did not speak any more, remained quiet, and moved steadily towards his destination..
According to the plan, the "Jurassic World" crew may need to stay in New Orleans for more than six weeks. Bryce, Nick, and Tepkins all chose to stay in hotels, but Renly didn't like the hotel environment, so he arranged Dee Rogers rented an independent villa in New Orleans in advance so that Renly could have a good rest during filming..
Phillip inquired about the address in advance and headed straight towards the villa..
After arriving at the destination, Renly didn't have time to look at the decoration and environment of the villa. He went all the way to the bedroom, threw himself directly into the bed, and fell into sleep..
By the time Phillip woke Renly up, night had fallen, and Renly went to the bathroom to take care of himself in a daze - Phillip had put in the hot water early, so that Renly could spend thirty minutes soaking in the bath, and his muscles and muscles... My nerves were relaxed and my whole body felt relaxed..
Immediately afterwards, Nathan drove and Philip accompanied him, escorting Renly to the hotel where the crew was staying. There was a small welcome ceremony there tonight: because after arriving in New Orleans, the local filming team also reunited. We still need to introduce each other..
