[Zhongyingmei] She is such a sand sculpture netizen

Russia's investigative efforts have almost been ineffective.Steve couldn't help but feel a little depressed on the plane back home.But when he thought of Joanna in Los Angeles, he felt another burst of joy.

Steve doesn't feel this way often.Leaving aside those years when he was frozen, probably only during World War II, every time he thought of Peggy before an operation, it would bring him such a shallow sense of joy.It is a kind of joy mixed with a huge sense of responsibility and worry, like the sweetness after bitter melon enters the throat.Steve has never touched drugs in his life, and cigarettes are the same. Even hard alcohol, he has been exposed to only a handful of times.But in his opinion, the attraction of this kind of sweetened joy is no less than those things.

Steve didn't go back to New York, he didn't even contact anyone else.The plane went straight to Los Angeles, and he went straight to Lucifer's residence as soon as he got off the plane.He still remembered that Joanna had said that she was being sent pitifully under the fence of the fallen angel who had a second-degree illness.

When Steve arrived at Lucifer's residence, the ten o'clock sun was shining on the chic building.If Lucifer has any dissatisfaction with his choice of base camp, this beautiful scene is probably one of them.The sunlight makes it all look like the work of his false heavenly father, although we all know that the truth is often far from the truth.But this does not prevent Lucifer from disgusting this scene, and it is precisely because of this disgust that Lucifer usually chooses to sleep soundly at home at this time.

But unfortunately, Steve's arrival completely bankrupted his sleep-in plan.

In fact, when Steve saw Lucifer answering the door with a displeased face in his nightgown, he knew he was doing something good today.Not to mention the bright red lipstick marks on Lucifer's cheeks.

Steve stood awkwardly at the door, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Lucifer said with a sullen face, "What are you doing?"

"Uh, I was looking for Joanna... sorry to bother you. Could you..."

"She's not here! I went to see a doctor!" Lucifer replied angrily.

"See a doctor?" Joanna's pale face sitting pitifully in the waiting room popped into Steve's mind, "What's wrong with her?"

"Today is Thursday, right? Thursday morning is her time to see a psychiatrist. Go find her at the doctor's!" Lucifer finished speaking and slammed the door shut.

Steve, who had no idea that Joanna was seeing a psychiatrist, suddenly didn't know what to do.He could only take out his mobile phone and send a text message to Joanna on an unfamiliar street.

However, it was an hour before Joanna saw the text message.Because Dr. Lecter has very high requirements for the cooperation of patients, every time Joanna goes to receive treatment, she has to turn her mobile phone into airplane mode, and then use the converter to chat with Dr. Lecter.

Dr. Lecter was introduced to her by Lucifer's friend.Because Joanna can't talk to people normally, she will inevitably feel depressed after a long time.Lucifer's best friend happens to be a psychiatrist.Out of a doctor's kind concern, she thought that Joanna should talk to a professional psychiatrist, but because of her poor schedule, she could only introduce Hannibal Lecter to Joanna.

In Hannibal's view, Joanna's refusal to speak is a typical mental illness, but Joanna's chat status does not conform to the typical manifestations of social impairment.At first Hannibal thought that Joanna was pretending to be sick, and he agreed to treat Joanna for psychotherapy just out of social etiquette.But as the chat with this speechless girl deepened, Hannibal gradually denied his initial judgment.

Joanna has severe OCD.She showed a superhuman fear of speaking.Even when Hannibal offered to try hypnotherapy on her, she immediately refused on the grounds of "No! You can't talk in your sleep!"

If it was just that, Hannibal might not be too curious about Joanna.But the information that Joanna revealed during the chat made Hannibal curious.Although Joanna has been careful not to reveal too much information between the lines, Hannibal is aware that Joanna is involved in something extraordinary.

Hannibal had no particular thoughts about Joanna, in any sense.

Until, by a coincidence, Joanna and Will met by chance outside the clinic.

Will has always been a person who pays great attention to personal space. This meeting that shouldn't have happened would not have had much impact. Unexpectedly, Joanna, who has been silent all the time, has become an acceptable communication partner in Will's eyes. .This was beyond Hannibal's expectations.But when he realized the problem, he had already missed the best time.

Hannibal, who had always held a semi-coping attitude, had to take care of Joanna from then on.

However, all of this was nothing to Joanna who just learned that Steve had arrived in Los Angeles.

She stood in the sun answering Steve's text.

Joanna: Sorry sorry, Dr. Lecter is not allowed to use cell phones during consultation hours.I just finished my consultation right now, where are you?I will look for you.

Steve: Cafe near Lucifer's bar.

Joanna: Give me two ten minutes.

In fact, it only took Joanna 10 minutes to get from Hannibal's consulting room to the coffee shop.In the extra 10 minutes, Joanna hid in the bathroom of the cafe to touch up her makeup.No, to be precise, it was makeup. After all, Joanna only put on her eyebrows and lipstick when she went out in the morning.

Who the hell sees a psychiatrist and puts on makeup!Makeup is for people to see, and psychiatrists have to charge money, so they are not considered human beings!

If Joanna hadn't lost her left eyebrow when she trimmed her eyebrows the day before, she might not even bother to paint her eyebrows.Lipstick was already her greatest respect to Hannibal.

But... seeing Steve was different.After all, it was a boyfriend whom he hadn't seen for a long time, who knew if there were any pretty girls winking at him when he was running around.Judging from Steve's appearance and figure, Joanna thinks that possibility is extremely high!Now that the two are going to meet, she would be considered careless if she didn't go home and change her clothes. If she didn't touch up her makeup and repair her appearance, she would be too embarrassed to meet Steve with that baby fat face.

Joanna thought her plan was flawless.Deliberately set aside 10 minutes for myself, hid in the bathroom of the cafe to quickly touch up makeup, and then appeared behind Steve without anyone noticing, pretending to surprise him.

Thinking about that scene, Joanna felt that she was really a planner.

If she had to say it herself, this surprise wasn't really a surprise, but...what the hell!Isn't Steve a veteran of the last century!She was also afraid that she would be too surprised, and the old man would not be able to adapt for a while!

When Joanna painted her eyeliner, she happily thought about the scene of meeting Steve later.Little did they know... Steve had already spotted her when she groped into the cafe.And she, because she was busy hiding in the bathroom, didn't dare to stay longer at all. As for her almost zero detection ability, she couldn't find Steve's raised right hand and the unspoken "I'm here" here".

Steve could almost be said to be dazed to see Joanna sneaking into the bathroom like a thief.At first, he thought Joanna was rushing to the bathroom, but after waiting two or three minutes, he realized that the time Joanna appeared did not match the time she started saying.He quickly used his mobile phone to confirm the location with Joanna, and he got a reply from Joanna, "There are still about 3 minutes".

Steve was full of doubts. He sat in his seat and pondered for 2 minutes, then got up decisively and walked towards the bathroom.

Breaking into the women's restroom, not to mention the current Steve, even a five or six-year-old Steve would not be able to do it.

Steve hesitated at the doorway painted with high heels.

Just to be cautious, he stood at the door and texted Joanna again.The second after the text message was sent, Joanna's cell phone alert sounded from the door with the picture of high-heeled shoes.That voice was so familiar to Steve. When he was with Joanna before, every time Joanna's cell phone received a text message, it would make the exact same voice.

Steve is almost [-] percent sure that Joanna is in the door.

What he doesn't understand is why Joanna would lie to him.

Steve didn't realize that the relationship between himself and Joanna was so tense that he needed to use lies to maintain it, and his old-fashioned and righteous little mind couldn't think of any drama about the woman cheating.In just one or two minutes, Steve's brain went through everything he knew about Joanna. When he connected Joanna's abnormal behavior with the psychiatrist, Steve felt as if he had touched To the brink of truth.

Joanna couldn't bear the burden brought by the "tongue of lies" and was on the verge of collapse.And the optimism and calmness she showed in text messages on weekdays are just her last acting skills.

At that moment, Steve felt overwhelmed.He suddenly realized that the reason why Joanna experienced all this was thanks to him.With an almost sad mood, he raised his hand to caress the exquisite wooden door.

He knew that with a slight nudge he could see the overwhelmed girl inside trying to pull herself together.

It's just that he doesn't know if he should do this now.

Just as Steve hesitated to leave, Joanna inside the door finally finished her makeup.She has to give herself a compliment, this is definitely the fastest she's ever moved.The fly in the ointment is that she forgot to bring her perfume when she went out today, and the perfume she sprayed in the morning has already entered the tail tone, which can't show her charm at all.

Originally, she thought she was the prettiest girl in Los Angeles when she went out in the morning, but since she was about to see Steve in a minute, Joanna began to feel that she was full of flaws.

Things have come to this point, Joanna can only accept these imperfections.

She took a deep breath, walked to the door and opened the toilet door.

As soon as the door opened, Steve's handsome face stood in front of her eyes.

Joanna, who hadn't spoken for a long time, lost control and screamed.

The owner of the cafe came quickly.When he saw Joanna with a shocked face and Steve with half a foot in the women's bathroom, he quickly came to a conclusion.

The strong boss immediately called the strongest employees in his store to control Steve one by one with one arm.Then he didn't notice Joanna who was holding a mobile phone to send them a message at all, and decisively called the Los Angeles Police Department.

"Hey, hello, LAPD? That's right, I caught a peeping tom in my store. Please take care of it."
