Killing Mary Sue [Comprehensive Anglo-American]

When Annie finally woke up, she felt that she had a splitting headache and almost died of pain.

She subconsciously called her own system, but after a long time, there was still no response. Annie whispered, clutching her forehead and tossing and opening her eyes, seeing the snow-white ceiling.She stared there for a long time, her eyes were sore and unbearable, her whole body was in pain, and she almost completely lost the memory of yesterday.

I don't know how long it has passed, but Annie finally recovered from the almost sluggish situation. She sat up with the soreness and looked around, only to find that she was lying on a small bed, everything around her It looks very strange: white window screens fluttering gently in the afternoon sun, neatly arranged walnut wood desks with a sense of age, wooden floors with a halo of light, and woolen coats and plaid scarves hanging behind the door , and a small round table in the center of the room, on which there is a pot of steaming hot tea, and the unfinished teacup is next to it.

The room is full of tea fragrance, clean and tidy, secluded and comfortable.It is obvious that the owner manages his life well.It seems that she hasn't had this feeling of being lazy and drowsy in the afternoon for a long time, and she doesn't want to move.

Annie stared blankly at the corner of the window screen gently caressing the desk, sweeping across the golden spots from the sun.Not only why she suddenly recalled a part of her previous life when she was studying abroad. It was just a very ordinary day. She went to the park with her friends and passed by the B&B hotel opened by two old people, because there are few people in the off-season. , and warmly entertained them as guests in their own homes.The host is friendly and talkative, the sun is shining brightly, the breeze is soft and slightly drunk, and the garden is colorful. Anne and her friends are sitting at the round table in the small backyard, enjoying muffins and black tea, and it is rare to do nothing, just be so quiet , you spent the whole afternoon in a word.Before leaving, the old man held her hand and told himself: Thank them for their company, which gave this ordinary day an extraordinary meaning.

Although that afternoon was just a memory of Annie's two lifetimes without waves, it was still a waste of time for the current "Annie Oakley".But for some reason, when she woke up from her lethargy and opened her eyes to see the scene of the afternoon sun and the peaceful years, the memory that had already started to fade slowly emerged from her mind, and she also remembered clearly that she Sharing is very enjoyable and loved that afternoon full of kindness and warmth.But I don't know why, since her fame has grown, she seems to have gradually forgotten the comfort and relaxation of being lazy with her eyes closed and not wanting to move at all.She was tense like a hostile hedgehog all day long, and it was difficult to fall asleep even in the dead of night.

What changed her?

What is the end of all that she is desperately pursuing?

Annie sat on the bed, staring blankly at an ordinary orchid plant placed on the window sill.She remembers that before entering this circle, she also loved growing flowers very much. It can even be said that she has a high talent and patience in this area, so she once yearned for a leisurely and quiet life.It's just that she gave up due to various reasons. After witnessing most of the flowers and plants in the house withered, she never planted a pot of flowers by herself.

I don't know why, it seems that all the things she wants and yearns for will be inexplicably given up halfway in the end.She blamed her bad luck. She could have been a bright star, but she met an agent with ulterior motives and went abroad to study, thus missing the best opportunity to become famous.I wanted to study hard in a foreign country quietly, but unfortunately, the rest of my life was ruined by a scumbag, and I was involved in a scandal of taking medicine and abortion.And finally, she had a chance to be reborn. With various resource advantages, she could stand up and climb to the top of the throne, but the system was disconnected at a critical moment, and she lost her skill bonus. She performed abnormally and was questioned by everyone on the crew about her acting skills.It just so happened that the house was leaking and it was raining all night. Her rival Elizabeth Margot achieved a double harvest of word-of-mouth and ratings with a piece of "Morgan". It is reported that she has appeared in many candidates for this year's Emmy Awards name……

Such a strong contrast made Annie even doubt the meaning of her rebirth: Wasn't she given a second chance to reverse her life, sweep Hollywood, become a winner in life, and reach the top?

Which link went wrong?Is there anything she doesn't do enough?

Annie lowered her head in frustration, only to realize that what she was wearing was not the sexy and unrestrained deep V short dress last night, but a set of comfortable women's home pajamas, light gray, without any pattern, and you can feel it when you smell it carefully There was a faint soapy smell.She was pinching the hem of her clothes and thinking about whose home she was in, when the door was pushed open and a familiar figure walked in.

"Oh, you're awake."

Jane Doe held a glass of warm water and pills, and put them on the round table calmly. Seeing that Annie stared at herself with wide eyes and seemed to have not recovered, she explained very proactively, "This is my home, yesterday At night, I saw you drunk on the street, so I brought you back. The clothes on your body are brand new and no one has worn them. I also changed the quilt cover for you. Your old clothes are full of vomit, and I took them outside to clean them. Yes, I will send you the bill in a moment."

All the details of Anne's worries were explained in detail, so that she didn't know how to answer for a while.Seeing Annie stunned on the bed, Jane handed over the glass and the pills, and added, "Your hangover medicine, if you don't want to continue to have a headache, just take it."

Probably because the other party's movements were too smooth and natural, Annie actually didn't think of refusing at all at the first time. Before she recovered, she swallowed the medicine with warm water. After the water moistened her throat, which was dry enough to smoke, After the whole person seemed to be revived and relaxed... She suddenly remembered something, and her eyes instantly became vigilant.

"You, how do you know where I am?—You follow me?!"

She originally thought that Jane would definitely deny it, after all, she had no evidence in her hand, even if she doubted it, she couldn't confirm it.And once the news of her crazy drunkenness got out last night... it would be a blow to her already shaky career.At this moment, Anne began to think about the possibility of buying the other party, as long as Jane Doe can keep her mouth shut, she is willing to pay any price——

"Yes." Unexpectedly, the other party admitted it straight away, with a very natural look on his face, "My target is you, of course I have to pay more attention to you."

Annie was taken aback, grabbed the corner of the bed vigilantly, and asked in a low voice, "...What do you mean?"

Lace?Private detective?Gossip reporter?Or a stalker sent by the original body's ex-boyfriend Celicio?What is her purpose?

Unexpectedly, Annie was so stunned by the other party's next sentence that she could hardly utter a single word——

"You've overplayed it this time, Anne Carter." Jane said the name that made her frightened, but still sat down on the chair very calmly, refilling a cup of her half-warm black tea, lowering her eyes and smiling Said, "After all, this body does not belong to you - even if it is a temporary boarding house, you still need to have some basic respect for the host, don't you?"

"..."

When Annie heard it, the blood all over her body turned cold. She didn't know how to deal with the scene in front of her. She called out to her system frantically in her heart, but as always, the system didn't answer.

"Don't try it," Jane blew the froth from the tea noodles, "Your 'superstar manufacturing system' won't be able to help you in the future. We have already locked it for recycling—including the rewards and endowments it once promised you over your skill."

"What doesn't belong to you doesn't belong to you after all. Haven't you understood this truth yet?"

Annie gritted her teeth, her heart was completely cold.She finally knew that this so-called Jane Doe was not a screenwriter or assistant at all—she knew everything about Anne's origin and everything!She came here for herself!She knew from the beginning that she was a reborn, and there was help from the system!

But... why?

"Why didn't you expose me from the beginning?" Annie asked sharply. The other party was extremely calm and unfathomable. Even her own system could be locked. It was obvious that she couldn't resist at all, so she simply asked why. Otherwise, even failure appears weak and unwilling.

"Why, there are so many cheaters in this world, and you just want to catch me?!"

In addition to these two sentences, there is another sentence that she most wants to get an answer.

"Why..." Annie murmured, "I sold everything, but in the end, I still lost everything?"

Is she not pretty enough?Or is it just bad luck?

Is the life of the loser really doomed?

Annie's questioning only got the other party a faint smile.

"People in our business need evidence just like the police." Jane put down her teacup. She was obviously just sitting on a simple wicker chair, but that posture and expression... made Annie faintly see The "Brenda" illusion.

"It's not aimed at, Miss Carter. We have never had any grievances. It's just that you are a reborn and I am a scavenger. You try to change other people's lives and steal others' achievements for personal use... I naturally have to follow the rules, restore the original order."

"—As for why you think you sold everything and lost everything in the end." Jane raised her eyes and looked over, her voice was as soft as the afternoon wind blowing through the window screen.

"Because what you want and what you have is not really yours."

"And what you rely on, what you complain about, and what you are proud of are just short-lived false phantoms."

In this lifetime, a person can love, trust, and rely on others.But never give your whole life to someone other than yourself.

"Made of Superstars"?Real superstars cannot be mass-produced, just like real actors, they will never be fully realized and comprehended because of a so-called system skill.The copied score may be able to steal an admission letter, but it will never steal a wonderful life for you.

"Some people are born with dignity, but they are never proud of it and stand still." Jane said lightly, "Because these people understand a truth: vision determines altitude."

Annie didn't agree with her statement. She snorted lightly and retorted sharply, "Heh, who made me come from an ordinary background, so I can't compare to the 'noble born' Miss Elizabeth you said is rich, powerful and powerful?"

There is always such a kind of person who seems to be able to catch up with the other person no matter how hard or how hard you try, because she was born to stand on the top and overlook everyone, and she can easily have things that others cannot get in a lifetime.

So she was jealous of Elizabeth, she was so jealous: how could the other party be so lucky?It's just because of a good birth, good resources, and even never experiencing ups and downs and injustices, he has won countless awards since entering the entertainment industry.What an American dream!What Hollywood!But they are all walking corpses covered with beautiful human skin and covered with pus, blood and rotting flesh!effort? !What's the use of trying?Will it allow her to overcome Elizabeth's background and become the next uncrowned queen? !

If ordinary people have shortcuts, why don't they take them? !Who would let go of a chance to get big for nothing? !Simply follow the trend, copy and learn from it, you can get much more than your own efforts, why not do this?

Isn't that what human nature is?She was just unlucky to be targeted.Similar examples abound in this circle. Even if she is caught, can she still clean up the whole world?

Annie just wanted to laugh out loud!

She knew that she had lost this time, and she had lost badly from the very beginning.But she is not reconciled to such an ending like this, and she still wants to win the game at the end, as long as the opponent changes color a little, even if she loses, she can leave with a smile.

And still, Annie failed.

Jane raised her eyebrows, and cast a subtle look of "forget it".

"Don't embarrass ordinary people." Jane clicked her tongue, "Birthplace is not a reason for you to feel resentment and envy in your heart, to take plunder without regret, and it is not an excuse for you to default to the system to hurt others and steal the hard work of your predecessors. "

"On that alone, you will never be equal to Elizabeth Margot."

"Even if you become famous for something that doesn't belong to you, you'll always be a star, not an actor."

One sentence made Annie grit her teeth, her complexion ashen.

"As for me?—then you don't have to worry about it." Jane shrugged, "I have always understood that many things may not be available to me in my life, but if I don't have it, I don't have any regrets about it. The only My regret is that there are some things that I had, but lost in the end.”

And she will still choose to accept the final outcome calmly.

This is why Jane has no desire for the seductive word of rebirth.It is different from time-traveling, usually reborn people are those who have committed unforgivable mistakes in the previous life, but have a second chance unconditionally.Most of them were Losers before, impoverished, and even credulous people who believed in the tragic death of others and harbored resentment. After rebirth, the original idea of ​​"making up for regrets" will eventually develop into the rhythm of abusing others and grabbing the protagonist due to the expansion of various desires.If it was absurd and stupid to be mediocre in the previous life, will it really become shrewd and capable and lucky after a new life?Then who should bear the faults and harm she caused in the previous life?Where should those outstanding characters who have been robbed of their scripts, roles and auras be placed?

You played "Ivy Hammond", are you really the "Ivy Hammond" who impressed the public?Can the script you reproduced word by word really become the never-fading classic "V for Vendetta"?

Copycats will never be as good as the original, just as classics cannot be reproduced, and it is difficult to follow suit.Without the sincerity and the support of the soul characters, no matter how gorgeous the rhetoric is, no matter how amazing the special effects are, it is just a hollow skeleton.

Not to mention, when she "reproduced" the original version, she still didn't forget to step on the other person's foot; while staying in the original body, she unscrupulously flirted with men who were not boyfriends, and was even almost raped——completely forgot " The wool comes from the sheep".

It couldn't go on like this, otherwise she would not only hurt the original owner's body.

"I know that your heart is full of doubts and unwillingness." After taking the last sip of tea, Jane put down her cup and looked at Annie. "I waited for you to wake up, just to tell you the answer you want to know."

"It's time to get everything back on track." She said, just as she was about to raise her finger, Annie suddenly shouted out a sentence——

"What if it was you?!" She widened her eyes, "If it was you—you have such good resources, such a young and beautiful body, a lot of money and rights at your fingertips... wouldn't you Won't you be tempted? Don't you want to step on top of others to ascend to the throne?!"

"I don't believe it! I don't believe that anyone will really give up these things... Who would be so stupid? The gold on the bottom of your feet can be picked up by bending down, but you choose to walk over?"

"What age is it, and you still believe in these Guang Weizheng?" Annie sneered, "——Everyone has long been tired of watching it."

Regarding Annie's unexpectedly sharp and sharp question, Jane was silent for a long time.

"If I'm still 'alive', I think maybe I can't answer." Because at that time she was full of resentment, confusion, anger and madness, no one could persuade her, no one could make her surrender.Even after she witnessed with her own eyes that the scavenger colleagues who violated the regulations of "selfishness" and "self-importance" conquered a world with twice the result with half the effort, she also had many times against the "scavenger norms" established by the will of the world. Doubt: Why do they spend so much effort to abide by the treaty but they may not be able to complete the task in the end, while those who violate the norms can exit the scene without paying any price?So what's the point of them being so trembling like walking on thin ice?

Later, after she witnessed countless once glamorous scavengers quietly "disappearing", or being assimilated into a more powerful Mary Sue...she finally understood.

What is evil?Everything born of weakness.

There is always a line that cannot be crossed.Once you step past, there is no turning back.Once the wall of principle is broken, there are only ruins left.The difference between the scavenger and Marysu is nothing more than the gap of that line.

Just like the truth that classics can last forever but fast food can only be popular for a while, no matter what era it is, the core of classics will not change, and it will always be remembered and inherited by people.Times will change, fashion trends will change, and people's tastes will also change, but there are also some things that will not be corroded and peeled off after the baptism of years and winds and frosts. This is the truly powerful and eternal existence that can move people's hearts.

"True gold will never fall to the point where no one picks it up. It has its own golden light that cannot be dusted." Jane told her, "It is not a queen who steps on top of others to get on the throne, but a tyrant."

"Since you are a tyrant, you should be prepared to be overthrown." Jane snapped her fingers lightly, and said that sentence with a smile at the last moment before Anne disappeared.

"If you can't bear the weight of the crown, it's better to exit quietly."

At least we can choose to be the queen of our own lives.

……

……

Elizabeth stared at the latest email from "J" received in her mailbox, unable to speak a word with anger.

"What do you mean by 'World Lama University, I want to visit'?" followed by a series of emoji (▽｀) that tried to be cute but failed.The most important thing is that after seeing the back, Elizabeth found that this was not a joke but the truth! ! !Because this guy has her latest script attached at the end!A bribe used as a resignation letter!

Elizabeth couldn't believe her eyes!

Her most desirable assistant quit her job? !Forget it, and only sent an electronic resignation letter in a lack of sincerity?Even licking the dog is full of meaning and wants to use her script to fool the past like this? !How is she easy to deceive? !What a joke! !

Elizabeth angrily shook off the mouse, turned her back and didn't want to see the resignation letter at all.

5 minute later.

He touched the email uncontrollably, and quietly opened the attachment "J's Script"...

three hours.

Elizabeth resolutely called her agent Jason.

"Hello? Are you honeymooning with your boyfriend again? - Stop playing and come back to work - I don't care if I'm single, but I have the right to talk, if you don't come back, I will tell the company to deduct your salary, believe it or not?!... Humph, What else is there to work? My assistant left me a new script, of course. I'll give you an hour to fly back to my house from California, no overtime! — and! My assistant is gone! You give me Get her back! I don't care where she is! I want her! I don't want anyone else! Now! Immediately! Get on to it!—"

After venting to her manager every day, Elizabeth felt comfortable, carefully closed the new script called "Beyond the Wall", lay back on the sofa leisurely, and was about to swipe her phone before the manager arrived. When she saw After the headlines on many platforms, he was caught off guard.

Simple, yet incredible entertainment news.

Anne Oakley, once a rising star in Hollywood, suddenly announced her withdrawal from the entertainment circle, and expressed her sincere apology to all the directors, actors and producers who had worked with her, especially her former boss Elizabeth Margot .She didn't explain why everyone was speculating, but I believe everyone in the know understands what she means.Like all ordinary people, she will live the life she really wants.

Elizabeth did not make any news after seeing the news. Even if she appeared in public and faced interviews, she would never mention this matter, maintaining her usual high-cold attitude.After following up Anne Oakley for a long time, the good news reporter discovered that the other party actually quit the entertainment circle, did not pursue fame and status, and opened a coffee shop as she said, and became a beautiful and enthusiastic proprietress , and talked about a sweet love with a handsome Italian guy outside the circle, and held a low-key wedding soon after.Judging from her smile in the photo, Anne Oakley should be married to love, living an ordinary and happy life.

This really surprised many people who wanted to watch a good show. After feeling a lot of emotion, they left the show enviously and went about their business.In the end, Elizabeth Margot, the biggest winner of the Emmy Awards, also made the most amazing declaration ever at the award ceremony - in addition to thanking the parents, judges and audience as usual, Elizabeth's smile disappeared suddenly, and she stared blankly. Looking at the screen, he said eeriely——

"One last question."

"Does anyone know where my assistant went? I need her. Anyone who knows please contact my agent as soon as possible. The deadline is forever, thank you."

The author has something to say: PS:

"There are many things in life, maybe I can't have them in my life, but I don't have any, and I don't have any regrets about them. The only regret is that some things have been owned and lost." - from "Golden Age"

The next world of Pride and Prejudice.I don't see much of this genre, so please forgive me if I'm biased.
