The host Carson walked onto the stage with a smile on his face, and said his lines enthusiastically, "Today, we will usher in the third round of the "Voice of America" ​​competition, a duel between groups. In this competition, the live And the audience in front of the TV, you will have the right to vote. The choice of the mentors and your votes will jointly determine whether the contestants will stay or not!"

Backstage, when they heard this new rule, almost all the contestants gasped, except for Eliza.

In the dream, this season of "The Voice of America" ​​also had such a change in the competition system, and it was in this competition that Eliza's audience support rate reached a staggering ratio.

Looking back now, it was also after that that the "scandal" about her exploded in a blowout style.Although there was no venue that could prevent her from entering the finals, it dragged her ranking from the oppressive first place to the edge of danger.

Before the news broke out outside the arena, Eliza had a good relationship with the other contestants. She was joking around and chatted with everyone, but Elisa was not always so cold because of her cold face. Joking with them, but was faintly excluded from the circle of players.

But when those scandals broke out, the people around Elisa who used to play with her seemed to keep a distance from her in an instant.

That night, Eliza had already calmed down, but when she was approaching the dessert shop on the corner, she heard a very characteristic baby voice from inside——

"You say, are those news..."

Hearing that voice, Elisa subconsciously slowed down, and the next moment she heard an all-too-familiar voice.

"I think it's true. You have to stay with this kind of person when you come to participate in the competition."

"It's disgusting."

The words that came out of the man's mouth made Elisa feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave. She still remembered how the man held her arm affectionately yesterday, and comforted Elisa with the "fake news" that was just caught by the media.And just one night later, Eliza heard exactly how she "trusted" her.

Eliza couldn't remember how she walked back to the hotel. Downstairs, she accidentally bumped into Alisa who was about to leave the hotel through the gate.She said "Sorry" in a low voice, and wanted to leave quickly, but she heard a unique smoke coming from behind, "Don't pay attention to what those people said."

Eliza turned her head in surprise, but the brown-haired woman's face was still indifferent as always, "You sing your own songs well, and what others say has nothing to do with you."

Leaving those words behind, Alisa left without looking at Elisa.

It's just that these words were the only kindness Eliza received from her opponent, except for Vera's sympathy call from outside the court.

"Eliza...Eliza..."

"Huh?" Elisa suddenly came back from her thoughts, and saw a helpless expression on the face of Eliza who had called her several times. Although the emotion was very light, in the dream, Elisa has never seen such a wide range of expressions on Alisa.

"What are you thinking?" Seeing Alisa's puzzled expression, Elisa shook her head slightly, showing a small smile.

===

While Elisa was in a daze, Carson had already announced the rules of the competition to all the contestants and audience on the stage.

In each contestant duel, each mentor will have a vote, and each vote will account for 10% of the score; the remaining 60% of the score is converted by the program group for all audience votes during the live broadcast and follow-up programs. The final score of the player will be the only evidence to decide whether the player will stay or not.

"Viewers and friends in front of the TV, you can vote for your favorite contestants through Facebook, Twitter, the official website of the Voice of America program and the official APP. The voting time ends at [-]:[-] pm New York time on the Friday of the week when the program airs, Please don't forget to give your strength to the players you support!"

After announcing the rules of this round, Carson quickly entered the normal game process.

"Then..." Carson glanced at the mentors in front of him, but couldn't see any special emotions on their faces, "Let's start with Mentor Gwen's team!"

"Oh..." A look of astonishment quickly flashed across the face of the blond instructor. Although she quickly adjusted her expression, this moment was accurately captured by the camera. Judging from the smile on the director's mouth , he will definitely cut this part of "The Mentor Changing Face" into the finished film.

But for a moment, Gwen quickly put on her usual contagious smile, "Of course, the players on my team are the best."

Regardless of whether she thinks so in her heart or not, under the watchful eyes of all the audience on the spot and in front of the TV, Gwen must say such words to cheer up the players in her team.

"Who is the player you want to send?"

"Alyssa." Gwen replied without hesitation. Although this girl is young, her calm personality and generous behavior have left a good impression on Gwen, and it is also because of the last issue The broadcast of the program made Alyssa appear extraordinarily generous among the contestants who lost the game, and it also won her a lot of praise from the audience.

All of these will undoubtedly become an important indicator in the instructor's mind to measure how far a player can go.

"Then, the first one to play is Alyssa from Mentor Gwen's team!"

Eliza applauded in the background, watching the girl in a little white dress step by step onto the stage.

"Alyssa, which song are you going to bring us today?" Carson asked with a smile.

""FiveHundredMiles"." Alyssa replied.

Carson also roughly figured out the tempers of the contestants during these few program recordings. Facing Alyssa's expressionless face, he just smiled slightly at this time, "Okay, then let us welcome Alyssa This song "FiveHundredMiles"!" After speaking, Carson led the audience to give Alisa applause, and left from the side of the stage.

The moment the lights dimmed on the stage, Eliza clenched her hands nervously.

Acoustic acoustic guitar sounded slowly, and wooden bass, banjo, and mantel were gradually added to the accompaniment, and the hot atmosphere at the scene seemed to calm down suddenly.

"If you miss the train I'mon, You will know that I amgone..."

Alyssa closed her eyes and sang the first line of the lyrics softly. The light but sincere melody fluttered on the stage, and her voice seemed to be full of emotions. She narrated the journey and the experience in life in a light way. Sing out.

"Ahundred miles, ahundred miles..."

In the accompaniment that seemed to come from the field, Alyssa sang this line of lyrics repeatedly.

During this period, she kept her eyes closed and did not make eye contact with any instructor or audience, as if she had completely immersed herself in her music world.

"Away from home, Away from home..."

"Lord I'm five hundred miles away from home..."

When these lyrics were sung by the smokey voice with a touch of sadness, there were tears in the eyes of several sentimental audience members in the audience.

I left home, I left home, five hundred miles away.

Sitting on the train and looking at the scenery outside the window, I kept estimating the distance from home in my heart.

[-] miles away...

three hundred miles...

five hundred miles...

The feeling of loneliness slowly invaded the whole heart, but the departure of the train will not stop because of the feeling of homesickness, it will only keep moving forward.

Backstage, Eliza clenched her teeth, closed her eyes, and let the welling up tears slowly sink into her heart.

"You can hear the whistle blow..."

Alyssa sang the last line, slowly opened her eyes, faced the camera, a tear ran down her cheek, and sang the second half of the line, "...ahundredmiles."

After the last sound, Alyssa couldn't help covering her face, and raised her head, unwilling to show her vulnerable side in front of the camera.

After the audience was silent, applause suddenly came from nowhere, and the weak applause from a corner of the auditorium quickly spread to the entire crowd.

"It's great." With tears in her eyes, Gwen praised without hesitation, "Alyssa, your singing is so, so touching."

Alyssa took down the palm covering her face, and the light hit her face, revealing the tears that hadn't completely dried up, "Thank you."

At this time, Carson walked onto the stage under the angry eyes of everyone in the audience. He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, but he still had to perform his duties, "Thank you Alisa for the wonderful performance, so now, which group Your mentor wants to send his own players to challenge?"

After a period of silence and the mentors looking at each other, finally, the three mentors Farrell, Blake and Adam put their hands on the buttons in front of them.

"Bam—"

But there was only one sound.

Adam raised his head in disbelief and looked at the two male mentors who were smiling happily, and Gwen couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"What are you doing!"

Didn't you agree to cheat Farrell!

Adam was still replaying Blake's pointing gesture at him just now in his mind, when he saw Farrell and Blake clap hands happily, Adam felt his scalp was about to explode in an instant.

"Then..." Carson managed to hold back his laughter, and looked at Adam, "Who is the player you want to send?"

Even if he knew that he was put together by the other two mentors, Adam had nothing to do in the face of the fact that it was done.

"The player I want to send is..."

The author has something to say: Today's playlist: "FiveHundredMiles" The Journeymen (Traveler), created by American folk singer Hedy West.

When I heard this song for the first time, I felt very flat, but I couldn't help playing it on a loop, and then I didn't know how many times I heard it, tears suddenly came down.

For the little angels~ Thank you for your company~
