Write whatever you want, you don't have to pay

At first I didn't understand what was going on. Later, I learned that there are two lines between reality and fiction. In reality, the heroine and her husband cheated, and the two faced bankruptcy and insomnia every night. In the novel, the male protagonist walks from the beginning of the road to the hut by the roadside. I can't wait to stab him with a gun. When I suddenly turned to reality, I felt that the uneasy feeling in my chest was gone. Slowly I understood that the character and economic conditions of the male protagonist were not up to standard. It just so happened that there was a tall rich and handsome around the female protagonist. . And then there's the novel.

In the novel, the male protagonist's wife and daughter are both dead, and the male protagonist slowly changes after a period of suffering. I think his change is a bit abrupt and a bit fast. Later, one highway criminal was caught, one died, and one escaped. The hero bravely testified against Lu. The one who then went free was eventually dropped the charges due to insufficient evidence. The cop in the novel was suffering from cancer. He wanted to finish his last case. He arrested the prisoner and the one who was on the loose. He gave the male protagonist a chance to take revenge and kill two people. The male protagonist was at a loss. One was killed by a cop. Then the male protagonist met the last living one in the hut. After the plot developed to complete his revenge, the male protagonist fired a shot to rescue and fell to the ground. The novel ends.

In reality, the female protagonist made an appointment with the male protagonist after reading the novel. The male protagonist finally sent you a message. You haven't told me the time and place. The female protagonist did not act to indicate that she told the male protagonist the time and place. I just removed my wedding ring at the back, dressed myself very carefully to go on a date, and didn't wait for the male protagonist until the restaurant closed. I think there may be two reasons why the heroine didn't wait. First, she didn't tell the male lead the time and place. Subconsciously, she thought she had told the male lead in reality, so she went on a date. The second is that the male protagonist has completed his new life and completed his revenge. Just like the love he said at the beginning may never come again, seeing him or not has no meaning to him. But I think the second possibility is unlikely, because the male protagonist explicitly asked the female protagonist to tell him the time and place.

Artists are just different, breaking up can be so interesting. I always feel that the names of those people in the novel should represent some meaning. But nothing specific.

The overall feeling of the movie is a little dragged, and a few times I feel that the motivation to continue watching is not particularly strong. But overall good. Anyway, no money, just write.

    Bobby Andes: See if you can recognize the one we caught. You can look at the dead one too, although I don't really think it's necessary, we know who he is.

    Bobby Andes: Steve Adams.

  • Bobby Andes: It's gonna be rough on them out there, not knowing how it's gonna come. Maybe Ray get killed, for resisting arrest, or coming at home late at night, might get shot by a burglar.
