Daisy's face suddenly changed.

She clenched the jewelry box tightly and stood up straight away.

"You, you said," she stumbled, "what did you say?"

"I said moving back to my hometown is also a good choice." Rosalin said blankly.

"You said the last sentence..."

"Mr. Buchanan cheated? You should know better than me." Rosalin replied, "Theoretically speaking, you are not—"

"enough!"

Daisy raised her voice, interrupting Rosalind's words.

Her voice was almost shrill, slightly shaking Rosalind.The latter raised his eyes and saw that Daisy's face was already full of anger and annoyance.

ah, well.

It wasn't until this time that Rosalin realized that the other party didn't really come to ask her for advice.

What she wanted was not a solution to the problem, but a solution that would preserve the status quo.

"I understand."

After anger, comes hatred.Daisy sneered and said, "You deliberately made things difficult for me just to see my jokes."

Rosalind was very inexplicable.

But she knew that the current Daisy couldn't listen to any words.

"You just want to see me in a mess, to see me throw away my armor, to see me lose everything!" Daisy scolded, "I just want to live a good life, why—why should I suffer your insults? "

"It's not me who insulted you."

Rosalind couldn't help but retort: ​​"Mrs. Buchanan, I didn't force your husband to invest wrongly, I didn't seduce your husband into bed, and I didn't have to force you to get rid of the man who was full of enthusiasm for you back then." A young man married. Can you feel better if you shirk all the responsibilities to me?"

"Stop reprimanding me with what happened back then."

As Daisy spoke, her light-colored pupils were filled with tears: "At least, at least I didn't willingly () be lowly, to sell my beauty and appearance, to go with the workers' district and two dubious hooligans Live together!"

"What did I do? I just wanted family peace and a peaceful life."

She sobbed: "Why is God not even willing to satisfy this little wish? It's all you, all you! If you didn't insist on rushing over to investigate some cases, how could Tom lose so much?!"

"And Gatsby! Does he think he's any better? He was the one who had to go to some war. He abandoned me but never answered a letter. I thought he was dead. I don't want to wait for a dead man. , Is it still wrong?

"Now that he comes back, okay, he keeps saying he loves me, but he loves me but wants to get entangled with a showgirl like you? Haha, say you are just friends, and you all live in this house, acting like a hostess, He still has the face to say that you are friends?

"Fortunately, I don't love him at all! I just hope that his unscrupulous approach will make Tom jealous again and let him come back to me! A nouveau riche, does he really think that as long as he has money, he can buy my heart? Guy Tsby doesn't deserve it at all!

"And you, you claim to uphold justice, break the case and catch the bad guys, so you haven't thought about my family? What about my future, what about my life?"

hypocritical.

Listening to Daisy's hoarse accusations, there was no fluctuation in Rosalin's heart.

She stared at Daisy's expensive and luxurious dress. The white silk was embroidered with fine patterns with golden thread, which was quite oriental and made Daisy's complexion extraordinarily bright.

The beautiful pictures filled the field of vision, but Rosalin smelled a familiar smell.

The stench of sweat and coal is mixed together, and the sour smell and dust are almost unbearable.This is Hank's breath.

Daisy blames Rosalind for ruining her life.

But she still has a way out, she is not poor and white, even if Tom Buchanan lost most of his assets, his remaining money is enough to support the workers of an entire cruise ship.

She can still live.

But what about Hank's family?

And who will listen to the duty of a poor man when he suffers from injustice?

No one listened, so Hank chose to raise the butcher's knife.

Life for life, Miss Mildred indirectly killed his brother, it is not a matter of course to pay with life.

As for Hank's murder, he was not prepared to survive the moment he made the decision.

Suddenly, Rosalin was even a little confused: Did she do the right thing to stop Hank?

"say something!"

Daisy was still accusing her: "Don't you have a sharp mouth! What are you talking about!"

"—540."

Rosalin spoke suddenly.

A whole string of numbers landed on the ground, which seemed to have no beginning and no end, which made Daisy froze for a moment.

Taking advantage of this interval, Rosalin quickly explained: "This is the number of people killed by the Allied Powers in Europe during the Four Years War."

Daisy: "..."

Rosalin came back to her senses and looked at Daisy's beautiful face.

"Behind the Bill Brothers Investment Company is the Mussolini government. Now fascism is raging in Germany and Italy. Their purpose is to obtain for the fascists mysterious manuscripts that are rumored to record weapons of mass destruction." Roseline He said it in one breath, almost without a pause: "If no one stops the fascists, they will inevitably start a second war with weapons of mass destruction."

In World War II, the number of casualties was far more than 500 million.

"You feel."

Rosalin tilted her head in surprise: "Should I be responsible for your family alone, or for the family of 500 million people?"

Daisy was speechless.

"And, the dubious 'rogue' in your mouth."

Rosalin's face darkened in a rare way: "I saved my life, and I saved other people's lives. Thiago is a qualified detective. If it weren't for him, even the husband you regard as God would be far more than a loss of money. Simple as that. You should thank him."

It doesn't matter to her if she reprimands Rosalin, but Rosalin cannot accept friends who look down on her.

Thiago has a heart of gold, and even Moran has saved himself.

and……

Obviously she won, but Rosalin couldn't be happy.

Rosalind admits she did it on purpose.

Because of a bet with Jay Gatsby, she agreed to meet Daisy, in order to let Gatsby hear Daisy's truth with her own ears.

It is very difficult for Rosalin to please someone. She is always confused about when to say something, and cannot smoothly understand other people's emotions.But it was too easy for Rosalin to anger someone, she just said what she wanted according to her own ideas.

Then Rosalin did succeed.

She angered Daisy, made her say all the nasty things she wanted to say, and peeled off the beautiful face, revealing the hypocritical side of the hollow paper man.

But Rosalind was not at all pleased.

She felt neither pleasure nor triumph.

Even Rosalind was a little unhappy.

Games that bring no joy are worthless, Rosalin thought to herself.She stopped playing.

So she stood up: "The Gatsby you look down on is not only a good helper to help me stop fascism, he also has a greater identity, that is, a veteran of World War I who defeated the enemy."

As she spoke, Rosalin directly opened the thin secret door.

When Gatsby and Nick appeared unexpectedly, the room fell into a deathly silence.

The expressions of the two behind the secret door were extremely complicated and awkward, while Daisy's face quickly lost all blood.

"While you were honeymooning with Buchanan, he was on the front lines."

Rosalind said coldly.

"When you were living a prosperous life, he fought for you from the bottom up."

Speaking of this, Rosalin got a little angry.

"You trampled on his sincerity and looked down on the poor people." Rosalin retorted directly: "When you lie on a soft bed at night and sleep beautifully, when you go to high-end places and drink expensive wine, don't you feel half guilty conscience?"

What Roselin hasn't said yet is that at the end of the original "The Great Gatsby", Daisy and Tom Buchanan directly blamed Gatsby for the murder, which led to his death.

Miss Marple said that ordinary people would be afraid when they came into contact with death.

After that, every night when Daisy lay beside her husband and closed her eyes, would she have nightmares every night because of the fear of her life?

"Now." She asked, "Do you want to repeat in front of Gatsby what you just reprimanded Gatsby?"

Daisy opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

She took a few steps back, and her high heels made a crisp sound on the floor.This made Daisy suddenly come back to her senses, she retreated one after another as if seeing a ghost, retreated to the door, turned and left.

Gatsby took a deep breath and chased after him.

Rosalin's eyes widened: "Can't this make you give up?"

Gatsby turned to look at her, his voice almost hoarse: "Without my permission, the butler will not open the door to let her go."

Humph.

Rosalin's face collapsed.

When Gatsby left, she turned to Nick.

The latter looked even more depressed than the repressed Gatsby.

"how so."

The handsome young man was dejected: "I thought... I haven't seen Daisy for a long time, and I thought she really didn't marry Tom from the bottom of her heart. A few days ago, I was secretly happy that I could match a real lover. "

Rosalind: "I'm sorry."

Nick looked up at her and couldn't help laughing.

"You're really not good at comforting people, Miss Rosalind." Nick said sadly, "But you don't have to apologize to me. I should apologize to Mr. Gatsby."

Ok.

Nick's sincere answer made Rosalinn feel better.

At least Gatsby has a friend who is good to him from the bottom of his heart.

Thinking about it this way, Rosalin naturally became kind to Nick.

"Don't think so much."

Rosalin was full of confidence: "I think Gatsby will definitely cheer up, it's you—"

"What's wrong with me?" Nick was at a loss.

The great economic crisis is about to begin. If Nick continues to work in the financial industry, he will lose his job sooner or later!
