Jessica began to try to take a deep breath, trying to stabilize her emotions, looking at her emaciated and embarrassed self in the mirror, so fragile that it seemed to be broken at the touch of a touch, it was so ridiculous. She had expected all this a long time ago, she had known who she was about to face, and she had known the truth of the matter long ago, why was she still vulnerable? He doesn't even need any words, just a look can defeat him.

This is not her.

Jessica let out a long breath, poured out the heat and dullness in her chest, turned on the faucet, and slapped her cheek with water. Even so, the overheated brain still couldn't cool down, so she simply filled the washbasin with water. water, and then buried his entire face in the water. The quietness underwater isolated all the noise of the world, and she could even hear the beating of her own heart. This moment of peace made the chaos in her mind gradually disappear...until she was almost hypoxic.

Hoo hoo... Jessica raised her head suddenly, breathing heavily, and looked up at herself in the mirror again. All her makeup was gone, her face was slightly pale, and the redness and swelling in her eyes seemed to have dissipated a little. , but the turbulent eyes settled down, and then she saw the projection of the little girl in the mirror.

The girl's face was full of worry and shock, and she cast a caring gaze anxiously. This warmed Jessica's heart. She showed a bright smile and nodded to the little girl, expressing that she was safe and sound.

Emma breathed a sigh of relief and showed a friendly smile in response. Although there was no conversation between them, she naturally had no way of knowing what happened to the woman in front of her, but she could feel the emotion of this woman. Struggling and pain, the despair and collapse of falling into the abyss were suppressed under the slightly trembling body, and he wanted to cry out but couldn't make a sound.

Now the woman is in a mess, with wet hair sticking to her cheeks in a mess, and her makeup is even more chaotic; but the most ridiculous thing is that the woman looks much better now than when she stumbled into the bathroom just now. Perhaps, it is such an absurd and weird difference that clearly shows how deep the pain in a woman's heart is.

Through the mirror, Emma saw that the woman slowly wiped off all the makeup on her cheeks with a tissue, eye makeup, lip gloss, blush... the lead was disappearing bit by bit, and the delicate face after the makeup faded was not only gone. Inferior, the back-to-basics innocence and perseverance are more and more charming.

Catching the steadfast brilliance in the woman's eyes, Emma withdrew her gaze, took out a tissue to wipe her hands clean, and then quickly left the bathroom, leaving this space to the woman. It was precisely because they were of the same sex that she felt more and more the difficulties and struggles of her fragile heart gradually becoming stronger, and she felt more and more the powerful soul hidden under that beautiful appearance.

Standing outside the bathroom, Emma was a little dazed, and she suddenly thought of her panic.

She doesn't know how to face that man, she doesn't know how to deal with those conspiracies, and she doesn't know how to respond to the intricacies of this world...Maybe after a few years, she can be as mature and calm as that woman She has to deal with the bumps and bumps in her life, but at least not for now. However, she knew that she had already made a choice, and she appeared here. When she heard the news of the Sin City audition, her first reaction was joy, not worry or fear, so she shouldn't Hesitation, let alone haste.

Since you don't know how to deal with it, why don't you follow your heart, maybe when you appear in front of him, everything will gradually become clear, isn't it? Because only when you face it, you will know what will happen, and avoiding it will only bury the truth forever.

Thinking of this, Emma's shoulders loosened slightly. She crumpled up the tissue in her hand and threw it into the trash can. Then she raised her head and walked forward.

Looking towards her original position, Emma found that Sebastian was no longer there. She looked around and soon saw Sebastian waving at her, and sitting opposite him Yes, it was Cole and Lance. The footsteps paused for a moment, and then Emma took a deep breath, straightened her chest, and walked straight forward.

Lance was looking down at the script at this time, his thick eyelashes drooped, and the sparse sunlight cast a thin shadow, hiding his eyes tightly. The sky blue shirt made him look calm And wise, it seems that a layer of melancholy has been slightly stained between the slightly frowning brows.

Hey, Mr. Strelo. Without waiting for Sebastian to speak, Emma took the initiative to speak, and then she saw him raise his eyes, the deep and charming azure blue in the golden sunshine It raised up, the azure blue flashed lightly, retracted its chin politely and distantly to express its greetings, and then lowered it again.

Inexplicably, Emma caught a hint of vigilance. It seems that the relaxation and casualness of Oscar night, the tit-for-tat confrontation on the beach in Santa Monica, and the cunning and ruthlessness of the crew at night seem to be lost. Strangers who know each other's names are average. This caught Emma a little off guard.

She had imagined many times what it would be like when the two met again, but she just missed this one.

Emma, ​​sit down. Sebastian greeted, The previous audition ended earlier than expected, so we can start first. Sebastian gave up his seat , then turned to look at Cole, casting a questioning gaze.

Cole put down the coffee in his hand, What Lance means is to audition for the role of Nancy together. The role Emma came to audition for was Nancy's childhood role. is the same character.

Sebastian nodded, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Lance, So, do you know that Nancy's childhood character is eleven years old? One sentence attracted everyone's attention In the past, Lance put the script down, and the small smile on the corner of his mouth was restored, polite and humble.

Nancy's childhood role, age setting is a very important part, which is why she was kidnapped by Roger. In fact, in the original comics, it is not emphasized that it must be eleven years old, and it is acceptable to be under the age of fourteen. This is enough to show Roger's perversion and evil, and it is also enough to show the relationship between Nancy and Hardigan. The source of the bond between. However, in Lance's opinion, the reason why he chose eleven years old instead of fourteen is because most western girls start to develop around the age of twelve or thirteen, and the state of twitching will be very obvious. Still like a child, but fourteen is more like a teenager—even fourteen is still a while from adulthood.

Although she looks like she's twelve or thirteen years old, she's no longer a baby. Lance's eyes fell on Emma, ​​he looked at her lightly, and said with a chuckle.

Emma couldn't help but began to grind her teeth. She didn't like Lance's eyes and his expression, I'm already fifteen! Emma said through gritted teeth.

Lance didn't care, raised his eyebrows, turned to look at Sebastian, Look, that's what I said.

Only now did Emma realize that the reason Lance was picking on her was because she disliked her for being older than the role required, and she foolishly jumped into the trap, which made Emma angry and annoyed. looked at Lance, but didn't know what to say.

Sebastian didn't panic at all, instead he showed a big smile, Lance, we all know that characters and actors should complement each other, adjust each other, and find the best fit. I can't see it The absolute shackles of age, on the contrary, I saw the characteristics of Nancy in Emma, ​​which are pure, sweet, fragile, and strong.

Sebastian usually looks like a simple and honest person, but an agent who can take root in Hollywood must have two brushes, and today Lance finally saw it.

It must be admitted that Lance nodded to today's audition to see if Emma and Jessica have the same temperament. Objectively speaking, in the original comics, the young Nancy is eleven years old, and the adult Nancy is 11 years old. They are nineteen years old, with a difference of eight years; and the actual age difference between Emma and Jessica is seven years old, which is in line with the comics.

Sorry for interrupting your conversation, I hope I'm not too rude. A voice came from a short distance, making everyone turn their heads, and then they saw James and Jessica standing beside him .

Emma's eyes were drawn to Jessica almost immediately, it was the woman in the bathroom just now! At this time, she has almost no makeup on, just added a little lip gloss, so that her face looks a little pale, but it is precisely this simplicity that brings out the fragility, innocence and sweetness in her temperament, making people fundamentally pale. Can't look away.

At this moment, Emma found that Jessica's eyes were trembling slightly, and she was uneasy but firmly cast in one direction. She turned her head slowly, followed Jessica's line of sight to find the target, and then she saw Lance as calm as water. At this time, Lance was not only calm, but also a little cold. The cold aura all over his body easily kept people away from thousands of miles away. He was strange and restrained, polite and alienated, clearly dividing the boundaries between each other. .

Looking back again, Emma saw a trace of disintegrating fragility in Jessica's eyes, and in an instant, she understood. Even though she didn't know anything, the woman's intuition suddenly realized at this moment - he was the bastard who hurt her.

So, he is indeed a bastard, a complete bastard, a bastard who does all kinds of evil.

Emma could even clearly feel the ruthlessness in his icy eyes, not at all shaken by her fragility and collapse, as if even the blood had lost its temperature.
