Chapter 379
Valley area.
A group of big boys were playing basketball on it, and a little blonde boy was holding two puppets, doing all kinds of actions. And his audience was a pet dog.
Bang!
A thunderclap on flat ground scared the boys who were playing basketball. They all looked dumbfounded at the car falling from the sky, looking at the already somewhat broken car.
"Thank you, you threw it very accurately, but if you could be lighter, I would thank you even more." The man in the suit and leather shoes said.
"Hancock is such a casual person. He always acts according to his own heart and won't care about other people's eyes." Ye Nan got off the car, looked at the children around, and immediately put a smile on his face. "Hi, kids, you continue."
Whoosh!
A cold wind blew, and Ye Nan's words were not ignored by anyone. The group of children's gazes were still on Hancock, who was flying down from the sky.
"Daddy, what's wrong?" A little blonde boy wearing a white short sleeve walked over suspiciously.
"Little baby." The man in the suit and leather shoes got off the car and hugged the little blonde boy. "Today Daddy had a really tough time. Daddy almost didn't get to see you."
"What's wrong?" The little blonde boy looked at his daddy. "Come, meet this person, he is your daddy's savior. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't get to see your daddy."
"Who is this?" The little blonde boy pointed at Ye Nan and asked.
"This gentleman is..." The man in the suit and leather shoes' voice got stuck.
"My name is Ye Nan, very cute little boy." Ye Nan smiled and stretched out his hand, touching the little blonde boy's hair a few times.
"His name is Alan."
"Ray, what's wrong with the car?" A woman wearing a red low-cut dress walked out. She was holding a towel in her hand. One can imagine how anxious she was when she walked out.
"Is it him?" The red low-cut dress woman's gaze shifted to Hancock and could no longer shift away.
"You might not be able to imagine. I almost died just now." Ray hugged Alan and greeted him. "The train almost hit me. It was him who saved me."
"This is my wife Mary." Ray introduced.
"Is it him?" Mary looked at Hancock in disbelief. She felt as if she were still in a dream.
"It's him, thank you." Ray said a thank you lightly.
"Sure enough, it's the two of them, the image consultant and Hancock's wife." Ye Nan looked at this scene calmly, and started calculating in his heart. "Ray is a good person. He has always wanted to benefit the public, so he lived so miserably. And his wife Mary, even more because she married Ray and had children, is full of vigilance toward Hancock."
"Are you okay?" Hancock asked Ray, but his gaze wandered on Mary.
"Hancock actually spoke actively. It looks like he felt something." Ye Nan's gaze only fell on Mary for a moment, then shifted away.
He knew. Like Mary, this kind of Superman, her feeling for gazes was quite sensitive.
"I'm fine." Ray said.
"It's fine if you're fine. Be careful next time, it's not every time I'm here to help you." Hancock pulled his dirty clothes, frowned, and turned to leave.
"Let's go, Ye Nan."
"Hmm." Ye Nan responded and followed.
"Wait a minute." Ray called out to Hancock. "Hancock, do you eat? Do you eat human food?"
"Hmm." Hancock nodded.
"Do you like eating meatballs?" Alan said on Ray's body.
"No. Son." Ray kissed Alan's little face.
Seeing that her husband seemed to want to keep Hancock, Mary hurriedly walked up and said: "He still has many things to do."
"Who would be so busy they don't even eat?" Ray said, and invited: "Why don't you and Ye Nan eat a meal at our house before leaving."
"Okay." Ye Nan grabbed the opportunity and agreed, then grabbed Hancock's arm and said: "Let's go, eat a meal before leaving. I happen to be hungry."
Ye Nan said, touching his stomach, as if he were really hungry.
"Let's go, don't be modest. Come, let's eat a meal together, eat meatballs." Ray also pulled Hancock and persuaded Hancock into the house.
"How could this be?" Mary looked at Hancock walking in, her heart all in a mess.
The old lover and the new husband meeting made her heart a mess. She didn't know what to do.
Ray's house was very spacious and bright. The door made of glass could easily see the scenery outside.
"Nice layout." Ye Nan commented on the house.
"This is thanks to Mary." Ray laughed. "This is all Mary helping out. Otherwise, a big man like me would definitely make this place a mess."
"Mary." Hancock's thoughts turned. Seeing Mary for the first time, he had a trace of indescribable feeling in his heart, as if Mary were his close person. Especially seeing Mary leaning on someone else's side, there was a trace of evil fire in his heart. Although the evil fire was weak, it could swallow his mind.
However, what kind of person was Hancock? He was Superman. Although irritable and acerbic, his heart was not bad. This trace of evil fire simply couldn't shake his mind. Full text..
"Hi, Hancock, it's like this. Actually, you can make people accept you more." Ray said. "Before eating, let's talk. Let me introduce myself first. I am a PR, an image consultant."
"Today you saved me, I owe you a favor. I want to repay you, so I plan to help you improve your image."
"Improve my image?" Hancock turned his head to look at Ye Nan. He remembered that Ye Nan also said this to him, and then became his agent. While the latter was holding a cup of coffee and drinking, seeming not to care about the situation in front of him.
"Yes, improve your image. Make people recognize you more." Ray, although strange why Hancock had to look at Ye Nan, still said his thoughts.
"I've seen you on TV. I know people loathe you, but I can help you. I am a PR, an image consultant. I can change people's views on you."
"Oh. I have to admit what you said is very right." Hancock looked at Ray, then nodded. "But, it's a pity. I don't need you."
"Why?" Ray looked at Hancock in disbelief and asked his doubt.
"Because of him." Hancock pointed at Ye Nan, then lay on the sofa, indicating he didn't want to speak.
Ye Nan blew a breath slowly, blowing away the heat in the coffee, then drank a light sip. "Thanks for your coffee, it's not bad."
"It's like this. I think Hancock can change his image, but he refused me. He said it's because of you. I want to ask why this is." Ray asked.
"Very simple, because I am his agent." Ye Nan stood up lightly. "As an agent, everything you said, I have already noticed. And I have made countermeasures for it."
"Agent, huh." Ray was stunned, then dejected. "I wanted to change him, to change the world through him. It looks like I am a loser."
"Loser? Not necessarily." Ye Nan sat down again, picked up the coffee, and drank another sip. "Although your actions are a bit slow, I have to say, your attention is not bad. If it weren't for me being in front, I'm afraid you would have succeeded."
"Perhaps." Ray sat on the sofa. "But I want to know your plan even more."
"Plan?" Ye Nan asked.
"Hmm, it's the plan. What plan do you want to use to change Hancock? The Hancock I see today is still the same old way." Ray said.
"It's the same old way, that's right, because that is his personality." Ye Nan spread his hands. "I don't think changing other people's views requires changing one's own personality, even though that kind of personality might not be welcomed."
"You yourself said it wouldn't be welcomed, why not let him change his personality." Ray asked again. He was more and more confused as he listened. He originally thought Ye Nan, who saw the places where Hancock was loathed, would let Hancock change, but he didn't expect he didn't intend to let Hancock change his personality.
"Of course not." Ye Nan nodded affirmatively. "Why should Hancock accommodate others? Why isn't it others accommodating him? So I don't intend to let Hancock change his personality, but let others adapt to Hancock, especially the people of Los Angeles."
"But doing this will hurt others." Ray understood Ye Nan less and less.
"Since that's the case, let others become more flexible. That way the stone won't hurt others." Ye Nan answered.
"But you doing this is very difficult." Ray said. Changing a person's personality is more difficult than changing the people of the whole world. He never thought that Ye Nan would have such thoughts. As an agent, he didn't let Hancock adapt to this world, but instead let this world adapt to Hancock.
"No, doing this will only hurt others and himself." With Ray's intelligence, he soon guessed that the collective appearance of criminals in Los Angeles some time ago was related to Ye Nan. Perhaps this was his first step in the plan.
"Can you tell me, when Los Angeles was full of crime, was Hancock paying attention to all of this? Was it you who let Hancock not come out to punish the criminals?"
Ye Nan heard this and was stunned. He didn't expect Ray to infer what he had done through a few words. He immediately narrowed his eyes. "This is a very smart person."
"However, smart is smart. If he dares to hinder me, then don't blame me for being ruthless." Ye Nan made up his mind in his heart.
Although in the movie, Ye Nan appreciated Ray's actions very much, thinking he was someone who truly served the public. This point, from his persuading those tycoons to distribute medicine for free and using this to advertise, can be known. This person knows how to find profit points between two different classes, although his behavior is stupid in the eyes of those tycoons.
"You say, was it you who did it?" Ray became excited again.
"Ray, what's wrong with you." Mary, who heard the voice in the kitchen, walked out of the kitchen.
"Daddy, what's wrong with you." Alan also looked at Ray with wide eyes, not understanding why his daddy would suddenly become angry. In Alan's eyes, excitement and anger are equal.
"Nothing, I was just excited for a moment." Ray also knew his words were a bit excessive. He immediately apologized: "Sorry, I just couldn't accept that kind of behavior."
"It's okay." Ye Nan walked to the coffee machine, poured himself a cup of coffee, and then drank a light sip. "It was indeed my persuasion, but it wasn't me who did it. Please get this point clear. I don't have that ability to instigate the gangsters of a city to come out and do bad things. Even if I had, I wouldn't do it."
He indeed didn't instigate the gangsters. He just used his mental power to spread the emotion of rage, letting those gangsters be dominated by the rage in their hearts, and then do the things he wanted. It was also because of this that those gangsters were so rampant. Otherwise, with the pressure Hancock once brought them, they might not have come out to do bad things so quickly.
"Why did you want to do that?" Ray became excited again. "Do you know, because of your persuasion, how many people were hurt?"
"Please note, sir, it wasn't me who hurt them, but the gangsters who hurt them." Ye Nan corrected the mistake in Ray's words.
"But if it weren't for your persuasion, with Hancock's strength, Los Angeles simply couldn't have appeared in that kind of chaos." Ray defended.
"Please note again, whether Hancock is willing to make a move has nothing to do with the chaos in Los Angeles. America is a country that pays attention to the law. Like your kind of implication simply cannot obtain legal support." Ye Nan said lightly. He sipped his coffee lightly, no matter how excited Ray was, he remained unmoved.
The excited Ray immediately calmed down. No matter whether he was willing to admit it or not, legally, neither Ye Nan nor Hancock committed a crime, because American law has no provisions regarding this aspect. This is mainly because Hancock was not directly involved in the chaos in Los Angeles.
If Hancock were a police officer, he would have the suspicion of nonfeasance. But he is not a police officer, he is a superhero. Like the title of superhero, which doesn't belong to a profession, it simply cannot judge Hancock.
"But what about your conscience?" Ray saw that he couldn't obtain support legally, so he simply used conscience to accuse. "So many people were hurt because of your nonfeasance. Do you feel good in your heart?"
"Please note, this matter has nothing to do with Hancock..."
"Shut up."
Ray scolded Ye Nan loudly.
Ye Nan lowered his head, covering the cold light appearing in his eyes. Then he raised his head again. "Mr. Ray, it was because of your good intentions that we stayed to eat. But if you think that because of this, you can point fingers at us, or even scold us, then you are wrong. This meal, it's better not to eat it."
Ye Nan got up and left, while Hancock stood up and chased after him.
"Wait."
"No."
Mary pulled Ray's hand and interrupted his words. "Since people are unwilling to accept it, then forget it."
"No, I must change him. Only by changing him can I change the whole world."
