Chapter 72 Cold War
Jenny was sitting by the window, she looked out of the window, but she said to Silton:
"Silton,

In our chorus,

There doesn't seem to be a girl named Barbara. "

When Silton heard this, his scalp felt a little numb. It must be that Barney, who was overzealous, told Jenny about it.

Jenny's words sounded a little cold to Silton, but what did he want to explain to Jenny?

Or is it that Jenny has already placed her identity in the position of a "prospective girlfriend" by default, so she can be naturally jealous and question Silton's relationship with other girls as a matter of course?

Silton was thinking about Jenny's role in this incident, when Jenny's face suddenly turned from the direction of the car window, and she squeezed out a smile:
"As your good friend, of course I will check on your future girlfriend."

Jenny's voice was warm and her smile was bright, but Silton's heart was even colder, terribly cold.

The school bus went east all the way to the Metropolitan Opera in New York.

The chorus team and the leading teacher waited in the background, and then lined up to play in order.

The competition score consists of three parts.

The first part is machine scoring, that is, using the microphone on the stage to receive the voice of the chorus, and then using a computer to score from the accuracy of pitch and the order of the team;

The second part is the expert scoring. The jury is composed of the dean, deputy dean and outstanding musicians of the theater. They are also in the background, but they can use the monitor screen to observe the situation on the stage in real time;
The third part is the on-site audience rating. Audiences who are not relatives of students have a one-fiftieth probability of getting a QR code when entering the venue. After scanning the code with their mobile phones, they can vote on the spot.

Fifteen choirs from [-] schools in New York and New Jersey participated.

Silton and other team members followed Wood to the backstage. There was a room half the size of a classroom, which was specially prepared for the players from the high schools in the city.

City High School happened to be the last team, so the players were not in a hurry. It was nine o'clock in the morning, and it was estimated that it would be seven or eight o'clock in the evening before it was their turn to play.

Jenny moved to Silton's side and said, "Young genius, Silton, are you going out with me?"

"Where?"

"Go and see Aunt May and Eddie." Jenny said with a smile:
"I didn't notice, you are not only a little genius in physics, but also in chasing girls.

How did you come up with the idea for Eddie?
Don't tell me it was Barbara who came up with the idea for you. "

Hearing Jenny's words, Silton nodded quickly and said, "Okay, okay, why don't I go out for a stroll with you?"

Many students who did not have their turn to compete were wandering around in the background.

Everyone wore different colors of game uniforms, and Silton and Jenny were also part of the colorful.

The two of them approached the entrance of the stage and secretly looked down the stage——

The stage was very bright, but the audience was very dark, but Silton still found Eddie and Aunt May who were sitting in the middle of the third row by virtue of the seat numbers on the tickets.

Aunt May is very natural, generous and decent; Eddie is very reserved, not daring to approach Aunt May at all, but he will peek out of the corner of his eyes from time to time.

"If Eddie had your abilities, he wouldn't be like this, hehe." Jenny snickered.

Silton was displeased, "Jenny, this joke is not funny at all."

"Then what jokes do you usually tell Barbara?" Jenny showed no sign of weakness.

Silton put on a straight face and stopped talking to Jenny.

What followed was half an hour of cold war with Jenny.

Two people were standing next to the gate, one on the left and one on the right, ignoring each other.

There are countless words in Silton's mind, and there are many things he wants to say, some are the truth, and some are nonsense made up to explain, but after thinking about it——

Why, who is she to me, why should I explain to her? ?
Jenny also felt a little regretful after saying those words; although she was very comfortable after mocking Silton with those sneering words, this way of comparing a straight girl of steel is likely to push Silton to softness. Barbara who loves green tea...

But things have developed into a cold war, will he keep ignoring me?Will you contact Barbara immediately to make me angry?Should I show weakness and reconcile with him?

The battle of wits and courage between the two in silence was interrupted by a few reprimands——

"Get out of the way! Students in front, get out of the way!"

The two blocked the entrance of the stage, and there were four security-looking people behind to open the way——

"Get out of the way, New York Mayor Mr. Corey is going to speak!"

Four security personnel showed fierce faces, pushing and shoving people who blocked the mayor's road; the mayor's kind voice came from the security center:
"Don't push, be nice to everyone, be nice."

The security guards didn't pay any attention to the mayor's words, or they had long been familiar with the meaning behind the mayor's words—

"I will play the red-faced kind mayor, and you will play the black-faced vicious slaves. Whoever refuses to obey will be beaten!"

Silton had already learned how the mayor's daughter, Julia, dealt with Green. On the surface, he was friendly and weak, but in fact, he sent someone to break his legs, and asked him to kneel on the ground to apologize.

Sure enough, like a father, like a daughter.

The bodyguards surrounded the mayor to the entrance gate, and Silton and Jenny were also rudely pushed away. Only then did Silton clearly see the mayor who was "hidden" among the security guards.

The mayor is about 1.5 meters tall, his arms and legs are as thin as bamboo poles, his face is fleshless, his cheeks are sunken, and he has a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek. His visual weight is less than 40 kilograms.

Silton thinks of his daughter's nearly 300-jin figure, and feels very funny——

Looking at Jenny who was driven to the opposite side, the two looked at each other and burst out laughing at the same time.

At this point, the Cold War ended, and the reason for the end was the weight difference of more than 200 catties between the mayor and his daughter.

The mayor and bodyguards took to the stage, and Silton and Jenny got together again.

The two stopped talking about the unhappiness about Barbara before, but talked about the mayor's wife.

The father is so thin and the daughter is so fat, what about the mother...

The mayor of New York City, Huntington Curry, took center stage to speak.

The content of the speech was very official, with a few not-so-funny jokes interspersed in the middle, and the audience laughed in unison in view of his status as mayor.

Aunt Mei listened carefully to the mayor's speech, smiled occasionally, turned to Eddie beside her and said, "This is the first time I have seen Mr. Mayor with my own eyes. I didn't expect our Mr. Mayor to be quite kind and friendly. interesting."

Eddie was silent.

As a reporter who interviewed everywhere, Eddie interviewed Mayor Huntington on the spot.

His performance in front of the camera and the public is completely different from his performance in life.

I have been to the luxurious villa where Huntington lived——

I saw him deliberately come to a simple study for an interview;

When he saw him facing the camera with his own eyes, a maid spilled coffee on his clothes, and he smiled kindly to indicate that it was all right;
I saw with my own eyes that he slapped the maid seven or eight times after the camera was turned off.

Of course, those who "saw it with their own eyes" cannot be reported. After all, the bounden duty of a reporter is to report the content in the camera, not the content seen with his own eyes.
