   Santaiscomingtotown...

   Accompanied by sweet singing, a festival marked by an old man with a white beard is coming. Although those who have studied religion may know that the true birth date of the trinity of the Holy Son with the Father and the Holy Spirit is around the vernal equinox, this does not prevent them from enjoying the annual festival. On the eve of Christmas, the streets of Los Angeles are permeated with a peaceful atmosphere, as if the impetuous, seductive, and bizarre city of angels in the usual days, angels have really come tonight.

The same is true in St. Andrew’s Hospital. As a hospital, the diffuse smell of Lyso water can never become the scent of turkey dinner, but the Christmas tree studded with various ornaments still gives this hospital a festive feeling— Although it is not easy to kiss a beautiful nurse under the mistletoe, the company of a dozen Santa Clauses still makes the patients feel a touch of warmth. They hugged and posed for photos with the smiling "hohoho" Santa Clauses, and accepted the worthless gifts from the fake old people with fake beards. They didn't care at all that under the fake white beard, what was hidden under the fake white beard was a drunkard. , A thief, or a fool who often goes to heaven.

   This is the miracle of Christmas, a miracle that only belongs to this day.

   However, no matter what kind of miracle moment, happiness is always accompanied by misfortune, just like the entangled light and shadow. Happiness always needs misfortune to set off, and unlucky people will be more aware of their misfortune when they see the happiness of others—

   "Would you like to buy a lucky rabbit leg for transfer?"

   There is no doubt that Sally's luck in the last few days is not so good. And looking at the guy with gauze on his forehead, his eyes closed, and his hands still making strange gestures, she couldn't help feeling that today's luck seemed to be worse.

   "It's already Christmas Eve! Lord, please bless me!"

   Although he is not a devout believer, everyone has the mentality of holding Buddha's feet temporarily.

   When it comes to Los Angeles, many people will naturally connect with Hollywood, and Sally is no exception. She has been working hard in Hollywood for a while, and although it can’t be said to be smooth sailing, she finally got her first role last month—of course, it’s just a small supporting role that can’t be smaller, even if there is a line. It all depends on how the final editing is done. But compared to a girl who drifts in Hollywood and can only make a living in a restaurant on weekdays, and occasionally gets harassed by some freaks, Sally, who has been a model, can already be said to be Driving on the fast lane of fame.

  —As I said before, happiness always needs misfortune to set off. If it's someone else's misfortune... it would be even better.

   However, in the fast lane, there is always the probability of an accident. After all, not everyone is a veteran driver, and you don’t know if you are on a hearse. What's more, when God opens a window for you, who knows if his old man who likes pranks will put up another door behind the window, and then put seven or eight locks on the door —

   Yesterday, the director called her and told her "unfortunately" that her role had been cancelled due to the adjustment of the script.

Although the director's tone was indeed "regret", the dissatisfaction that could not be concealed in the words convinced Sally that the reason she had lost the role she had already obtained was only because the director hinted at her when she was drinking at a bar the other day. Went to wait for him in the alley behind the bar, "Dedicated to art", but she directly relayed these words to a gentleman next to her with a white earring stud in his left ear and wearing an exquisite Italian handmade suit, and hinted at this Sir, the director admires him very much...

   "I can only help you here, I wish you happiness! Don't thank me!"

   Sally wanted to reply to Mr. Director in this way, but to her regret, she forgot to ask the name of Mr. "Earring"...

   However, even though her body is covered with spikes, Sally is still a young girl after all. This frustration made her very depressed, and she got drunk in the cider house near the rented apartment. Although at the last moment before she fell drunk while vomiting, she realized that as a beautiful young girl, her drunk herself would definitely become the favorite of the "corpse pickers" cruising nearby, but her liver did not have an instant. Ability to metabolize large amounts of alcohol—

   "If when I wake up, I find myself sleeping in a cheap hotel room with someone's'pipe' in my mouth, I must bite it down!"

  —This is the determination that the girl made before she fell drunk.

   Fortunately, God did not arrange her fate as a criminal;

   Unfortunately, when she woke up with a hangover headache, she was in the hospital with the expensive ambulance bill in front of her—

   "What!? After drinking, I was about to jump from the overpass to commit suicide. Although I was rescued, the person who saved me passed out!?"

   Sally couldn’t believe it when she learned the cause of the incident from the rude doctor named House.

"Let’s not say that the height of the street bridge is enough to commit suicide. I used to be a model! A model! A model! Do you know what a model is!? Just to make yourself skinny and torture your own fool like a slave owner tortures a poor slave every day In order to save myself a pound of meat, I would rather go to Sherlock! How could such a fool who left all his weight in Venice seriously wound a big man! Doctor, do you think I am a fool!? "

  —Well, although the young girl is already incoherent, the things she doesn't want to believe are obviously special.

   However, Dr. House was indifferent to the girl’s excitement:

   "Even if you can deny Newton's law of inertia, you still have to pay the hospital bills. Cash is still a credit card, the former model, I don't want to be a fool who is a fool?"

  —People who can see through the essence of things at a glance are really annoying!

   She would commit suicide after drinking, which really shocked Sally. But for this young girl who is floating in Hollywood without social security and just lost her job, what is even more terrible is the ambulance bill.

   "Which Bitch called the ambulance!? Save the people and save the people, what kind of ambulance is called! It's better to leave me alone! Don't know how expensive this American ambulance is?"

  —At this moment, for Sally who has an empty purse, tobeornottobe, this is a problem...

  Of course, Sally also knew that this ambulance was actually called more for the unlucky person who was smashed by her. After all, the reason why she jumped from the skybridge didn't even hurt a single piece, thanks to the guy below. She doesn't need to come to the hospital, it's hard to tell the other party.

   After weighing her conscience and wallet for a long time, Sally decided to pay for her savior. Of course, this is because the ambulance obviously cannot be called by a comatose person, and secondly, it is impossible for a comatose person to pay.

   Just in this way, her wallet was completely turned into a vacuum. If it weren’t for two credit cards to overdraft, she might only be able to buy three matches for Christmas this year and light them in the corner to keep warm.

   "If I can't find any acting opportunities these days, I guess I can only go to the CheesecakeFactory (cheesecake factory) to work with Penny!"

   The girl who had prepared for the worst, decided to take another look at the culprit who caused her current condition before leaving the hospital—though in the final analysis, it should be her own drunkenness that caused the following series of things. But as everyone knows, it is a woman's privilege to be unreasonable, and Sally obviously does not intend to give up this privilege.

   "WTF!? This guy is awake!?"

  —Wake up early, not wake up late, but you woke up as soon as the old lady paid the bill, deliberately! ?

   Obviously, poverty does not limit Sally's imagination, but also indirectly magnifies her brain.

   "But what does this mean? Although Dr. House said that a concussion may cause short-term memory loss, in this picture, what is lost is not the memory at all, but the whole brain!"

   Looking at the other person lying on the hospital bed, closing her eyes, muttering words in her mouth, and constantly making weird gestures with her hands, Sally's first reaction was that this guy had lost her mind.

  -But, how come the movements in this guy's hands are a bit like the movements of the "daoshi" people in Hong Kong movies I have watched before?

   At this moment, the "unintelligible" person opened his eyes.
