Manhattan Reborn 1978

Chapter 32 David’s Storytelling and Dreams

On the top floor of the Blue Crystal Hotel, in the living room.

Several lamps were around the crowd.

David shook the wine glass gently and told a story "This Man is from the Earth"!

Several people slowly fell into the story and expressed their confusion over the many shocking remarks David made.

For example, did Char really live 14000 years?

Was he crucified and then resurrected?

and many more.

Pine didn't ask questions and quietly enjoyed the happiness brought by the story.

He is past the age of a curious baby.

Giles had the most problems because his mother was a devout Christian.

So he expressed his disapproval of David's story and asked him to explain why Charles became Jesus while he was still drunk!

Several people laughed after hearing this.

Stories are just stories.

Stopped him and continued listening.

David continued:

"People were arguing with each other over Char's shocking remarks, and some were treating it as a funny story."

"Some regard it as a terrorist statement and firmly resist it."

"Several old friends ended up parting on bad terms, and the last old friend to leave, Gao Lin, suffered a heart attack when he said goodbye to Charles."

"Char stood up and called the emergency phone, then gently held Gao Lin's head to make him feel better."

"Char looked at Gao Lin in front of him, feeling sad in his heart, and impulsively said Gao Lin's nickname."

"Gaolin's nickname is only known to his parents. He doesn't understand how Charles knew it."

"Charl told him the name of Gowling's puppy, his father's name, and that his parents were students at Utah State University. Charl also helped organize their wedding."

"Gao Lin had a complicated expression, remembering what his parents told him about their university professor when he was a child."

Later in the story, David's memory is a little fuzzy.

I can only finish it as I feel.

After listening, everyone fell into their own thoughts.

Giles asked: "Will there be a Charles in this world?"

"I don't know. But it's unlikely we'd find him if he did."

"Then if we trace his existence out of curiosity, will there be any clues?"

"Do you want to find the guy in the story of David who claimed to be the man who was called Jesus by the world after being resurrected three days ago?"

"Maybe there will be a surprise if you look for it?"

"Maybe it's a shock?"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Are you going to dwell on David's story again?" Polly interjected.

"No, we just want to analyze the authenticity and logic of David's story."

David rolled his eyes: "There's no truth in it, but it's logical. I'll tell you a logical story later."

David felt that these people were going to cross paths and trap his thoughts there.

The story is enjoyable to listen to, and it is enough that it is interesting.

If you really want to delve into all the inner details, then your brain has redundant circuits!

His interruption attracted the attention of several people.

There are many things in his story that are unacceptable, but it is undeniable that it is wonderful!

David felt a little tired sitting like this.

So he announced: "Take a 10-minute break to resolve some physical issues. We will come back later to continue the story session."

Several people laughed and went to the bathroom or to do some exercise.

Stand up and stretch your numb legs.

He went to the door and asked the waiter for some pillows and cushions. The waiter said he only had pillows.

David said let's just use pillows, find softer ones, and get some thin blankets for the ladies.

Throw pillow! ! !

what! ! !

Can have this!

When the waiter saw David finish speaking, he started to be stunned, so he didn't bother him and went to find a pillow.

Later generations will remember that pillows and cushions are standard equipment in hotels.

Many families have several for daily use.

You can do some research on this, if it really hasn't happened yet.

Then it will be a big gold mine!

Giles hurried out of the bathroom and saw David standing at the door, stunned, and stepped forward to greet him.

David came to his senses and responded.

You can ask a few people later if they know about pillows.

Several people returned to their seats, and the waiter brought a thin blanket to the lady. Polly took it and wrapped it around her shoulders.

The room was very air-conditioned, and she felt a little cold after sitting for a long time. David next to her felt considerately.

David took a few pillows, built himself a comfortable seat, and began to tell another story.

"In a university, a professor organized a research team to conduct an experiment in a factory."

“They are trying to find ways to increase labor productivity by improving external factors such as working conditions and environment.”

"The team selected six female workers in the electrical appliance workshop as subjects of observation."

"However, what they regret is that no matter how external factors change, the productivity of female workers has been rising."

"Why did this happen? Giles!"

How could Giles know, he thought with a frown.

David did not wait for him and continued: "Later, they realized after several similar experiments that the reason why such a result occurred was because when the female workers were extracted, they realized that they were a special group. That's what these research groups are focusing on."

"This feeling of being noticed and cared about makes them work twice as hard."

"This is a way to prove that you are excellent and worthy of attention."

"Then this experiment tells us that from the perspective of others, white lies and praise can really build a person."

"From a self-perspective, who you think you are is who you can become."

Pine listened to David's story, but his eyes were on Giles.

This story was obviously meant for Giles.

Giles and his brother, they were all in the spotlight.

Bloomer was also caught up in thinking, from the perspective of others and from his own perspective.

Treat them with white lies and compliments that make him?

Treat yourself, what kind of person do you think you can be?what kind of person?

What kind of person are you?

David took a big gulp of the wine in the glass, poured it for himself, and said:

"I don't know what you will think after hearing this story."

"I just want to be a happy person, do things that make me happy, say things that make me happy, and live a happy life every day!"

After hearing this, several people burst into laughter.

Who wouldn't want to?

Giles laughed too, being who he thought he was.

Several people also told some short stories of their own, and the atmosphere gradually became joyful.

David smiled drunkenly and looked at the people joking in front of him.

What they don't know is the world they all live in now.

It is a world constructed from the movies and TV series David watched before he traveled through time.

Although I have never seen the stories of Giles, Blumer, Pine, Polly, Ludy, Old Malkin and others in my previous life.

But here’s Andy, Red, The Shawshank Redemption.

And Forrest Gump, all prove this fact.

There may be many characters he doesn't know and has never seen living in this world.

Maybe I drank more wine while telling the story just now.

Maybe after coming to this world, these days have passed, and there are ridiculous waves in my heart.

David couldn't control himself and continued to drink until his head was dizzy and his steps were light.

Among them, Polly was the only one who quietly paid attention to David.

It looked like he was already drunk, and if he drank any more, he would start acting like Giles.

She confessed to several people and wanted to leave with David.

Everyone had a great time tonight. They all expressed their admiration for David's wild imagination and asked for more gatherings in the future.

Giles and Bloomer were both a little drunk, and Pine carefully helped Polly get David into the car.

After David got in the car, he hugged Polly like a soft clay and murmured some drunken words.

Polly held him like a mother caring for her child, without any hesitation.

Mike noticed them both in the front row.

Mike Bai teased: "David, don't think about Polly. I'll call you Susan later! Haha."

In fact, he was also reminding David not to cause trouble by messing around.

Under the current circumstances, everyone is getting along very well.

If something happened to David and Polly, I wonder how Malkin would handle it. .

After David heard this, he forced himself to wake up a little, sat upright, and continued to be confused.

Polly's eyes became clear, she supported David and cursed: "Damn bastard, what kind of shit is in your mouth... blah blah blah"

Black Mike was driving, looking at David in the rearview mirror, and felt that White Mike had a good idea.

That chick Susan is now thinking about David, and if there is such an opportunity, she will not refuse it!

Several people arrived at Polly's house first, and Black Mike got out of the car and took her back.

Start again and return to the apartment.

The two of them sandwiched David and threw him onto the bed.

They looked at each other and started to laugh mischievously.

Turned around and went out to the Wildfire Bar.

David felt an urgent need to urinate. After getting up dizzy, he found a cup and took a gulp of water.

Take off your clothes, climb into bed and fall asleep.

In the dream, he dreamed of Ruby, who played sports games with David very gently.

His scalp felt numb for a while, and after he felt comfortable, David turned over and fell into a deep sleep.
