[US Entertainment] Actor

Chapter 10 Follow-up

Ebert thought nothing would happen without him, he picked up the undamaged piece of beef and potatoes stained with red wine juice and wanted to leave, but the person in charge of the commercial street stopped him, expressing that he wanted to deal with He gives thanks.

Ebert shook his head and said, "You're welcome, this is just what I should do as an American citizen."

The lady who lost her bag picked up her bag from the thief. The money, cards and some daily necessities in it were not lost or damaged at all. She looked terrified and her face turned pale, as if she had never encountered such a thing.But out of the elegance shown in her usual living habits, she still expressed her sincere gratitude to Ebert and hoped to give him some financial compensation.

Ebert was a little helpless. These people seemed to have seen the reality of his cash-strapped... Should he accept the material reward or accept it?

The police who received the report also came to the scene after a while.The thief was tightly detained by the security personnel. After asking about the situation and checking the authenticity of the matter, the police handcuffed the thief without hesitation.

There were more and more people watching, and Ebert vaguely heard a murmur of "That's not Albert Dawson" from the crowd. The voice became louder and louder, causing Ebert Burt noticed more and more stares, and even the lady whose bag was robbed couldn't help but glanced at Ebert several times.

Fortunately, Mr. Police rescued him in time.The thief as the criminal, to be precise, the robber was naturally invited into the car without any politeness, the lady as the victim, and Ebert as the outstanding young man who subdued the criminal were all taken to the police station to explain the situation .

The case was clear at a glance, and the police probably let Ebert go after asking about the situation.In fact, American law does not encourage excessive acts of righteousness, but after some inspections, the thief's body did not receive substantial harm, and the lady's property was indeed recovered. The first time you encounter such a situation, you must protect yourself and then you will be let go.

The police gentlemen also said that the running direction of the robber seen in the surveillance was indeed in the same direction as Ebert’s walking, and the possibility that he was also injured by the perpetrator was not ruled out. While protecting the lady’s property, he also Protected myself.

"I should thank you and at least compensate you for today's loss, Mr. Dawson." The lady begged repeatedly.

Ebert has never been in the habit of receiving financial rewards for doing good deeds, so he shook his head: "Ms. Laura, I can understand your feelings, but I don't have any financial losses. Thank you for your kindness."

In the end, it was the person in charge of the commercial street who made the final decision.In fact, such a robbery case was originally caused by the lack of security work in the commercial street. If Laura insisted on prosecuting them, the person in charge of the commercial street would pay a huge economic price for it, and there would be more to come. It has an impact on the owners of the commercial street. If this matter is not handled properly, the business of that commercial street will inevitably suffer a great loss, and the store owners may withdraw their leases one after another.

Especially now that the influence of the "911 Incident" is still widespread, the person in charge will only think about it worse.

The person in charge gave Ebert a blue card, and he said that no matter when Ebert came to that street for consumption, all his purchases would have a [-]% discount.

Ebert was very satisfied with this kind of compensation, and the lady who lost the bag didn't say anything more.Although the street close to Ebert's apartment is not as famous as Pasadena Old Town, Montana Avenue, and Rodeo Street, the international big names on the street still attract all kinds of wealthy people in Los Angeles. .Ebert seldom goes shopping, but he is very aware of the prices of the shops on that street. Dior, Chanel, Louis Vuitton and other big brands have always rarely had discounts. If Ebert can have the right to buy items with a [-]% discount , that would save money for him.

"You can also bring some friends to spend with this card. You know, the frequency of men buying clothing is not very high."

"of course."

Ebert had just recently heard that the landlord, Mr. Johnson, wanted to buy Mrs. Johnson a Burberry scarf. This card would save them some dollars.

Ebert was eventually picked up by Bradley and Mark.Bradley found a new job during this time, and with his father's sponsorship, he finally bought a car of his own.The car is only a general-purpose basic model, and the price is not expensive, but it brings great convenience to the travel of the three of them. Of course, Bradley drives there most of the time when he is working, and Mark and Ebert seldom When you need a car.

Ebert, who had just gotten into the car, was ridiculed by Mark and Bradley loudly: "I have never been in a police station in my life, does it feel good?"

"Not bad." Ebert shrugged, "You can try it some other day."

"Come on, we are good citizens who abide by the law. According to you, that guy is going to be unlucky. In the past, the sentence for grabbing a bag would not be too serious, but now it might be." Bradley Mourning for the unlucky robber, "Eb, your luck seems to be not so...you understand."

Ebert smiled slightly: "It's not too bad, see what this is?"

Mark took the card with a yell: "Wow, it looks great, where did this come from, Bly just recently handed in a girl who buys bags as her lifelong ambition, your card should be It can play a big role. I dare say that those big-name VIP customers are probably not treated so well, and your luck is too good!"

"Mark, if you also try to enter the police station, you might have the same luck as me." Ebert smiled at him maliciously, causing Mark to roll his eyes sincerely.

"Anyway, I finished my audition for "White Night" today, because I was very happy to have the rare opportunity to audition with Al Pacino, so I went to the supermarket to buy some vegetables, but now I can't see the color of potatoes and a piece of beef, and nothing else."

"What, the chance to audition with Al? Ebert, you didn't say anything just now!" Mark yelled in the car in shock, "When I was a kid, Al was my only idol, my biggest My wish is to write a script and give it to Al to shoot, Ebert is really your lucky day today, you should cook some delicious food to celebrate."

"Come on Mark, you said that about Jenna Jameson last month, and your words have no credibility." Bradley mocked without hesitation. (Jenna Jameson, a famous American porn actress, is known as the Queen of Porn.”)

"Indeed, I also feel very lucky. I don't think about the result of "White Night Chaser" now. Maybe this crew is also scared off by my reputation as the leading role of Golden Raspberry. The chance of playing a supporting role in a movie is far away. Nothing like the opportunity to play with Al Pacino."

"But the truth is, if you audition, you're going to have a lot of opportunities to play with Al Pacino."

"Dear Mark, I understand this deeply, so I just hope that at some point God is on my side, stretching out his gentle hand to help me, a lost orphan..."

Both Mark and Bradley felt a chill at the same time.

But for Ebert now, no news is the best news.He didn't expect the crew of "White Night Chasing the Murder" to give him an immediate response. In any case, he believed that he had given a performance in line with his own strength, and whether he could realize his wish was still up to God's will.

Mark made a dinner of beef brisket in red wine, and Ebert and Bradley licked the plate clean with satisfaction.Early the next morning, Bradley took the card to the Prada boutique to buy a new bag for his new girlfriend. He expressed his thanks to Ebert loudly on the phone.

"She's such a sweetie, oh, I did have an unforgettable night."

The money left behind to buy this bag is enough for two other bachelors to eat simple meals for a week.Mark criticized Bradley unceremoniously: "He, this guy, spends money to please his girlfriend even if he has no food. He can send a rose of $100 without hesitation. That week he Eats hamburgers almost every meal, what a poor ass and brain."

Early the next morning, while Ebert was still brushing his teeth, Mark on the other end knocked open his door and forced Ebert to watch the latest news: "Ebert, you're in the headlines again, look at the group of media How does the trash talk about you, I can't stand their ability to make up things, you must have been hurt deeply by them."

Ebert nodded, quickly ran back to the room to spit out the toothpaste in his mouth, and then returned to Mark to stare at the news on his computer. Four or five media reported news related to him. After all, in the past few months Well, Ebert can be regarded as a transparent person in the entertainment industry. There are not many media interested in him, and most of them are local tabloids in Los Angeles.

These newspapers all wrote the news sensationally, such as "Ebert, a former member of the 'Eastern Eagle', entered the police station twice due to a fight", "Ebert was willing to degenerate or was sentenced to 10 years in prison", "The fallen idol Ebert" and the like, which made Ebert very speechless. He couldn't understand how the tabloids described everything that happened at the crime scene vividly, as if they were real witnesses.
