Anti-Hero Lola [Comprehensive Anglo-American]

New York City.late at night.

Laura was woken up by a strange noise.

It sounded very—indescribable, like a whistling, and also like a kind of friction sound caused by stepping on the brakes and forcing the car to continue driving.

Laura grabbed the pillow and covered her head irritably, but the weird magic sound just got louder, louder, and closer, closer.

just like……

It was ringing in her living room!

what? !

Laura jumped up from the bed.

When she rushed to the living room, she didn't forget to take a look at where Artemis was. Artemis was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, as if she didn't hear the strange, louder voice at all.

Laura stopped after rushing into the living room, staring at her in front of her.

In the middle of her living room, a blue phone booth gradually changed from a phantom to a solid figure—Lola's eyes changed, because she suddenly remembered the graffiti she saw outside the bar in Gotham.

Spinning planets, tiny rockets.

And blue phone booths.

Lola took two steps back to prevent the blue phone box from falling on her feet.She eyed it curiously, not avoiding using her clairvoyance, of course.

Then she couldn't help but let out an exclamation: "Wow!"

It's too hard to describe what she saw, the whole planet was stuffed into this little blue phone box, it has huge libraries, museums, collection rooms and strange laboratories inside, and Building complexes of various styles.

Numerous rooms are interspersed and circling inside it—it is impossible to explain the specific distribution of all rooms by interspersing and circling, because as far as Lola’s observation is concerned, the time flow speed in these rooms is different, and the moment in some rooms is Decades in another room—Lola stared at it, and its innermost, innermost location.

A strange sun-coloured cylinder surrounded by a ring-shaped console filled with strange push-rods, buttons, keypads and grooves.

A strange man is manipulating the blue telephone booth through this circular console.

dong dong.

Laura sensitively distinguished the sound from the sound of the brakes.What is this sound?

dong dong.

This rhythm is a bit familiar.

dong dong.

Laura figured it out.

It's the heartbeat, and this strange man in the strange blue phone booth has two hearts.

Before Luo La had time to be surprised, she saw him swinging his long legs towards the door of the phone booth, and then slammed the door open.

"Rebecca!" he yelled. "Where were you?! Watch out, I—"

Laura exclaimed, "The inside of this thing is bigger than the outside!"

"—of course it is." The man stood still, staring at Laura in surprise, and asked, "You are not Rebecca—but how could you not be Rebecca? I use Rebecca as Positioned—but you’re not Rebecca—who are you?”

He walked out of the door, took out something and aimed it at Laura.

It looked like a pen with a dark green gemstone inlaid on the end of the pen.This strange man used it to scan up and down at Lola, the gemstone on the tip of the pen flashed green light, and there was a sound like an electromagnetic wave——

He snapped the strange instrument away, then held it in front of his eyes for a closer look.

"It's so weird," he muttered, "It's so weird, the scan of the sonic screwdriver proves that you are Rebecca, yes, you are Rebecca, but..." He raised his head and looked at Laura quickly, then lowered his head Looking at that sonic screwdriver, he looked up at Laura again, and then looked down at the sonic screwdriver, "...but you are not Rebecca! You are not the same person at all!"

"I'm Laura," said Laura. "Who are you?"

This strange man raised his head and gave Laura a perfunctory look: "I'm a doctor."

He wore a dark ginger-brown tweed blazer over a teal shirt and a dark burgundy bow tie.

Loose and loose trousers, overalls, or nine-point overalls that are a bit shorter.

Wearing dark brown ankle boots.Very retro style.

——Short pants and short boots?seriously?It was a hellish outfit, showing off a pair of short legs every minute.

But his legs were so long that he totally resisted.

But then again, he was wearing a very classic British style.As an alien, his outfits are classic, but a little crazy.

"Is this your spaceship?" Laura asked, "You look exactly like a human."

The strange man suddenly raised his head: "...what did you say?"

"Is this your spaceship?"

"No, no, no, another sentence."

"You look exactly like a human."

"How do you know?" he said, "Not everyone knows I'm not human the first time they see me, and you just said 'the inside of this thing is bigger than the outside'."

"The inside of this thing is bigger than it looks on the outside." Laura said, "And your spaceship is actually made of wood! What kind of magical black technology is this!" She became excited again, "I can't see it at all. Come out its charging mode, my God, I can't imagine..."

"she."

"Ok?"

"Her name is Tardis."

"That doesn't sound like a name," Lola said. "Is it a transliteration from your language?"

"No, that's her name." The strange man said, "I'm not speaking English either, you can understand that I'm using a translation system to talk to you, and everything I say will be translated by TARDIS into expressions you are familiar with."

Laura crossed her arms and said in a nasal voice, "Yes."

She then asked, "What does TARDIS mean?"

"The Relative Dimensions of Time and Space."

"Wow!" Laura was excited again, "It's a spaceship and a time machine!"

"...Wow, did you understand?" said the strange man, "You're so smart."

"So," Laura asked, "Who is Rebecca? Why did you use Rebecca as a target, but ended up targeting me?"

"Don't you want to know who I am?"

"You just told me you were a doctor."

"Oh." The self-proclaimed doctor looked a little unhappy, "People usually ask 'what doctor'."

"You only answer 'doctor', isn't it just to let people not know what doctor you are?" Laura showed a sly smile, and she walked a few steps towards the other side happily, "how? Did you find out from me? What?"

The doctor tilted his head to look at Laura: "You are not Rebecca."

"You figured that out from the start."

"But you're Rebecca again."

Laura was taken aback: "Huh?"

Her first instinct was that the other party knew what her "identity" was, but the man who called himself a doctor quickly caught her attention with another sentence.

"You are Rebecca, and she is also Rebecca," he said, "I have always been able to scan the energy of the space crack in Rebecca, but I have never been able to understand how it came about, and now I understand ...So that's how it is!"

He laughed, waving and dancing excitedly on the spot, like a crazy adult or an ecstatic child: "Rebecca is from a parallel world! She doesn't belong to this world! Do you understand? Laura, you are Rebecca of this world!"

"...Hey," Laura said, "what is a parallel world?"

Parallel worlds, Lola thought, sounded like a sci-fi thing.

but--

If it was a sci-fi thing, she should know it.

The doctor's movements froze, and he looked at Laura in surprise: "If I remember correctly, your brain will store these basic scientific false theories."

"I do know a lot of things since I was born." Laura slightly raised her eyebrows, "Except——the 'parallel world' you mentioned."

The doctor and Laura looked at each other for a while, then rushed towards the TARDIS.

He rushed into the interior of the TARDIS, ran all the way to the console, and then held on to the armrest on the console, panting heavily, pressing some buttons while balancing his breathing.

"Where are we going next?" Laura asked. "To Rebecca?"

"Oh!" The doctor was startled by her and leaned back, then stood still in shock, and asked in astonishment, "How did you get in?"

"Aha! You bad girl, you brought me here on purpose!" he muttered without waiting for Lola's answer. "You never liked Rebecca and kept her locked out on purpose... "

"Is she really alive?" Laura leaned over curiously, "Is your time machine and spaceship really alive?"

"Yes, of course, she is self-aware," said the Doctor, rubbing his head in distress. "What are you doing with me?"

"I also want to experience time travel." Laura was eager to try, "Is it okay?"

The doctor glanced at Laura, smiled and pulled down the push rod: "Why not?"

"Yeah!" Laura cheered, "Did I follow you to play somewhere else for a few hours, and then only 1 minute passed here when I came back?"

"Exactly." The doctor pressed around the console, "Which time do you want to go?"

"Is it okay to go forward and backward? I can choose whatever I want?" Laura was very excited, "Is it also possible to go to the parallel world?"

The ship began to make the whistling sound that Lola had first heard.

"That requires too much energy!" The doctor replied loudly, "If we want to go to a parallel world, we need a supernova!"

"Then find one," Laura said naively.

"It's not that simple! You have to absorb all the energy the moment the supernova blows up and then release it. Even the TARDIS can only bear this kind of pressure once or twice—"

The doctor quickly ran around the circular console, fortunately he was able to walk on the ground in such a violent shaking.

Lola said, "You've done this once, haven't you?"

The doctor fell silent, and the pleasant smile disappeared from his face.

His face is so young, but his eyes are so old.

Another violent shaking woke up the doctor, and he suddenly raised his head: "No, no, no—don't be at this moment! Don't let another accident—"

The shaking stopped for a moment.

"And then?" Laura floated leisurely at a knuckle-high position from the ground of this strangely shaped spaceship, "Have we arrived yet? What era is it now? Past or future?"

The doctor stepped out of the spaceship without a word.

Laura quickly followed.
