009 The Killer

Ryan was a little panicked because he knew Lancelot's ability more clearly than anyone else. However, this panic was only a while, and Ryan quickly calmed down. He was not sure how much Lance knew about "Lost Tokyo" and how much unknown Lance's words would bring, but what he could be sure of was that he would never give Lance the opportunity to rise again!

They have completely broken up and are incompatible. Either you die or I die. In the shopping mall, there is no friendship, only interests, so he will never leave any trouble for himself. He wants to strangle Lance to death and witness the decay and corruption of Lance - "Lost Tokyo", he has made it!

After saying goodbye to Barry, although the two of them were calm on the surface, Ryan knew that the subsequent cooperation negotiations would be full of thorns and the difficulty would definitely increase exponentially. Ryan only felt that his chest was blocked, but he could not vent it. This feeling was really bad.

Ryan tried to find Lance in the crowd - this was not a very difficult thing. He quickly found Lance and Sophia who were talking, which made his teeth clench again. Ryan knew clearly that few people could resist Lance's charm, and at this moment, the faint smile on Sophia's face seemed to have verified this statement again, which made Ryan feel that his chest was so stuffy that he ached.

Gripping his teeth and breathing a long breath to calm his overheated brain down. Ryan quickly reorganized his thoughts, his expression regained his usual calmness, gracefulness, and took steps.

"Hey, you're here." Ryan's brisk voice attracted the attention of Sophia and Lance. Both of them looked over. Ryan first hugged Sophia, and the familiarity between the two was obvious. Then Ryan's gaze fell on Lance, showing a surprised expression, "Hey, you're here too." It seemed as if this was their first meeting today.

Sophia raised her eyebrows in surprise and looked at Lance, "You know each other?"

Lance nodded calmly and showed a helpless smile, "Sorry, I haven't had time to introduce myself yet. Lancelot-Straello, I have known Ryan for more than ten years."

Lance was still a little caught off guard. The conversation between Ryan and Barry ended so soon. Ryan's sudden appearance also disrupted Lance's plan just now. Everything is uncertain now. However, Lance did not lose his composure and showed his weakness. Instead, he took the initiative to tell the truth and made it clear; and he changed the focus of the topic in silence - he answered not "why did he know Ryan", but he was interrupted by Ryan and did not have time to introduce himself.

Ryan immediately heard the sharpness hidden in Lance's words. He also smiled and shrugged, adding, "Depthoscope Pictures was founded by the two of us, but unfortunately, Lance left the company not long ago." Ryan vaguely raised Lance's real purpose, which was also the most important part that Lance just lost in his words.

Sure enough, Sophia widened her eyes in surprise. Obviously, she did not expect that things would be such a coincidence. Countless thoughts burst out in her mind. Her first thought was: Then, all the chance encounters between Lance and herself were deliberately arranged? But this idea just broke out, Sophia was not sure or sure, so she could not respond in time. She could only sigh, "Wow..." A meaningful sigh, "Wow..." Once again, Sophia narrowed her eyes slightly, "So, do you know me?"

Sofia is a sentimental woman who lives in her own world most of her time, but it does not mean that she knows nothing about these conspiracies, nor does it mean that she is a fool.

Lance chuckled with a hint, and the elegant curve of the corner of his mouth burst out in the golden sunlight, reflecting in his blue eyes, outlining an intoxicating halo. Sophia only felt that a beat had been missing in her heart, and she couldn't help but hold her breath.

"Of course, of course I know you." Lance closed his chin slightly, and the clear sunlight penetrated his thick eyelashes, casting sparse shadows, and echoed gently in his deep facial features. "The Godfather' series is one of the movies I have watched repeatedly." Lance's smile was mixed with a hint of teasing and apologetic. He raised his head and looked at Sophia, frowned and begged for mercy, "Sorry, please forgive my rudeness. I definitely didn't mean it."

One sentence made Sophia burst out laughing. This was the first time she had laughed so happily today.

As we all know, Sophia hates the most about others to mention "Godfather 3". She made a guest appearance in this work of her father, but she won the two trophysicians, the worst supporting actress and the worst female newcomer in the Golden Raspberry Award. It can be said that it is the most terrifying dark history in her life. After that, Sophia was rejected by the entertainment industry for a long time, and people familiar with the Coppola family would tactfully avoid the topic of "Godfather 3" in front of her.

Lance had a hint of teasing in the joke just now, but Sophia couldn't hate it. The sincerity in her blue eyes easily convinced her, and the laughter overflowed, even Sophia herself could not have expected it.

"A true gentleman should know how to start with self-introduction." Sophia curled her smile and said seriously, but the complaints in her words revealed her true emotions at this moment - she not only didn't mind, but also obviously had an excellent impression of Lance.

Lance raised his eyebrows in surprise, "I thought a true friend should start with spiritual communication." - just like his conversation with Sophia just now, this is a subtext that was not spoken in Lance's words.

Sophia was stunned for a moment, staring at Lance in front of her, and her smile could not be covered, and her cheeks began to get slightly hot, which made Sophia lower her head shyly and embarrassedly, and pursed her dry lips.

Just two conversations, Lance once again pulled back his disadvantages.

Ryan couldn't help but curse secretly, but his brain was calmer than ever before, and he didn't interrupt in a hurry, but quietly waited for his own opportunity, "So, did you mention it with Sophia just now?" Ryan took advantage of the situation and said to Lance.

Not only Lance, but even Sophia cast a puzzled look at Ryan. Ryan followed Sophia's gaze and said seriously, "Lance mentioned it to me not long ago that he showed incredible fanaticism about the script "Lost Tokyo". He thought it was a very excellent script and couldn't wait to cooperate with you." After that, Ryan looked at Lance again and asked innocently, "Aren't you discussing these just now?"

Correct answer! All of Lance's guesses are correct. Ryan's cooperation project is "Lost Tokyo", which also means that Lance's actions just now are at the heart! But what's bad is that the window paper was pierced, and Lance's painstaking conversation was completely ruined - all of his conversations with Sophia revolve around the core idea of ​​"Lost Tokyo", and added his personal understanding and speculation of Sophia's mood.

If Sophia doesn't know the story behind it, she will only treat Lance as a close friend; but once the matter is exposed, Lance becomes a villain who is determined to seek cooperation - even taking advantage of Sophia's fragility. In fact, if Ryan comes later, five minutes, only five minutes, Lance will skillfully propose the script of "Lost Tokyo" and then talk to Sophia in the name of "communication". Then today's work has been completed, and the specific cooperation matters will be left for the next meeting, thereby avoiding the terrible situation now.

However, Ryan did not leave much space for Lance, not for five minutes.

Ryan nailed Lance to death with a few simple words. His decisive and ruthless methods left almost no room for Lance to turn the tables. But this is not the end.

Ryan didn't give Lance the time to pretend to be stupid, so he spoke again, "So, have you decided? Start your own business? Or work in a big company?"

Ryan's sentence contains two information. The first is that Lance doesn't even have a production company now, so he hopes to cooperate with Sophia to shoot "Lost Tokyo" and make a waste of money. Lance's use of Sophia becomes even more disgusting; the second is the possibility of Lance's cooperation with a large company, which means that Lance has no advantage over Ryan - Ryan did not give Lance any chance to explain Lance's production plan and production ideas for "Lost Tokyo".

Another blow, a fierce blow, a fatal blow! It can be said that Ryan did not leave Lance any chance to survive.

Sophia is an emotional person. She may be fascinated by Lance's words, but she may also completely cut off all possibilities because of Lance's dishonestness. This is a double-edged sword. Lance just used the front of the blade, but now she is stabbed by the back of the blade again.

She looked at Lance in disbelief, the whole world in her eyes fell apart, and the emotional storm surged in an instant, then she turned and left without warning, leaving with great strides, decisive and decisive. Lance took advantage of Sophia's fragility and established a connection in a short conversation; and now Ryan also took advantage of Sophia's fragility and destroyed all trust in a few words.

A hint of annoyance flashed in Lance's eyes, and his right hand clenched directly into a fist. He wanted to shout Sophia and explain further, but the action was interrupted by Ryan. Ryan walked to Lance with a quick step, quickly narrowing the distance between the two people, and stopped his movements by just one punch outside Lance's face. Lance could even feel Ryan's hot breath, and then he heard Ryan's low voice showing unprecedented tenderness - and disgusting smugness.
