Chapter 1255 Liar! Bastard!
Xiaoyao took a direct flight from Boston Logan Airport to Las Vegas McCarran Airport without connecting flights. About six hours later, the plane landed at McCarran Airport in Las Vegas.
The passage on the plane is narrow, and Xiao Yao’s seat is by the window, so he is not in a hurry. After the passengers started to disembark, Xiao Yao didn’t want to squeeze with others, so he sat in his seat for a while, deliberately waiting to get up when there were few people.
“Hi ” When Xiao Yao passed the first-class cabin with his luggage, Nicky Thompson greeted Xiao Yao and stood up with his luggage.
“You haven’t left yet?” Xiao Yao looked at Nicky Thompson with some surprise.
First-class passengers have priority in the boarding time, but not in the disembarkation time. However, because the first-class cabin is basically at the front of the aircraft, closer to the door of the aircraft, and the seats in the first-class cabin are loose, there is no crowded crowd. Therefore, under normal circumstances, first-class passengers are also the first to disembark.
“I’m waiting for you!” Nicky Thompson smiled, “Together?”
“Okay, you first!” Xiao Yao slightly bent over and made a please gesture.
Although Nicky Thompson was waiting for him to make Xiao Yao a little surprised, but when I think about it, Nicky Thompson said that she came to Las Vegas alone for vacation, and the two had a pleasant encounter at the Boston airport. , Now it’s normal to wait for myself to get off the plane and leave.
Both of them had checked baggage. After getting off the plane, they went to the checked baggage office to take the checked baggage, and then they walked out of the passenger passage together.
At the exit, neither of them came to pick up the airport, which seemed to confirm the statement that both of them came to Las Vegas alone for vacation.
“Taxi?” Xiao Yao asked Nicky Thompson.
No one came to pick up the plane, and most of them didn’t call a taxi to pick up the plane. Most likely, it was a taxi.
“Well,” Nicky Thompson nodded and asked, “How about you?”
“Me too!” Xiao Yao said.
The two of them walked to the pick-up point of the taxi together.
“Where do you live?” Nicky Thompson asked Xiao Yao as he walked, “Hotel? Which one? Is there a reservation?”
“What do you want to do?” Xiao Yao smiled and looked at Nicky Thompson. It’s just meeting Pingshui, why are you still inquiring about where to live?
“I originally wanted to know where you live, maybe I can come out and play with you if I have a chance,” said Nicky Thompson, “but I suddenly remembered that I didn’t book a hotel. I decided to stay in the same hotel as you, so it’s easy to find You, and we can both take the same taxi, and one of them can save money on the car!”
“Living in the same hotel as Nicky Thompson?” Xiao Yao quickly weighed it in his heart, feeling that this didn’t seem to be a very good idea.
Reject directly? Leaving aside the question of politeness, if Nicky Thompson makes up his mind to stay in a hotel with him, he can call a taxi and follow him. Now the two are standing together in line, there are many taxis outside the airport, and the departure time is very close, basically they are not likely to be lost. The hotel is not opened by itself, and it is impossible to ask others to refuse Nicky Thompson’s stay at the hotel.
Xiao Yao did not respond to Nicky Thompson, took out a pair of sunglasses from his carrying bag and put it on.
“Huh? What are you doing?” Nicky Thompson looked at Xiao Yao strangely.
This night, I didn’t wear sunglasses in the brightly lit airport. Why did I wear sunglasses when I arrived at the slightly darker taxi line?
“Oh, my God!” Xiao Yao exaggerated exaggeratedly.
“Huh?” Nicky Thompson was taken aback and looked at Xiao Yao puzzled.
The two are now lining up at the taxi pick-up area. Xiao Yao yelled like that suddenly, which also attracted the attention of other people before and after the team, and looked at Xiao Yao with a little dissatisfaction and curiosity.
“Are you Nicky Thompson? That superstar?” Xiao Yao said to Nicky Thompson excitedly, “I didn’t expect to meet a superstar here! I’m so lucky! I am your fan, can you Would you like to sign me? No, can you take a photo with you?” Xiao Yao was very excited and took his phone.
“Huh?” Nicky Thompson was dumbfounded.
“What? Nicky Thompson?” The people in the line were surprised at first, and they all stared at Nicky Thompson.
Although the light in the taxi line is not as bright as in the airport lobby, the light outside the airport is not particularly dim. Although Nicky Thompson is wearing sunglasses, but after Xiao Yao called out the two suggestive words of name and superstar, people were purposefully distinguished, it can still be seen that this blonde woman is indeed very similar to Nicky Thompson. of.
“God! Nicky Thompson is here!” Many people in the team yelled, and at the same time they surrounded them.
“Miss Thompson, can I take a picture with you?” Several young people squeezed Xiao Yao aside, picked up the phone and went to Nick Thompson.
They heard Xiao Yao say to take a photo with Nicky Thompson, thinking that this young man with an East Asian appearance was just like them, an ordinary traveler, a fan of Nicky Thompson, even if they noticed that the two came together, they thought that The two were simply on the same road, and couldn’t be a member of Nicky Thompson’s team, so he didn’t hesitate to squeeze Xiao Yao aside.
Xiao Yao was squeezed by someone and retreated to the periphery.
The flight time from Boston to Las Vegas is about six hours. However, the United States does not use the same time as China does. Instead, it uses different times according to the region. The difference between the Eastern Time and Western Time on the mainland is three hours. , So when the plane landed in Las Vegas, it was only less than ten in the evening local time. Although Xiao Yao was deliberately delayed for a while when he got off the plane, the passengers were all anxious to get off the plane. It was not a long time, and now the two of them walked to the taxi queue at around 10:30 p.m. local time.
Las Vegas is a famous city that never sleeps. It is not too late at half past ten in the evening. The airport is still very busy, and there are many people waiting in line for taxis. Xiao Yao and the people in front and back of Nick Thompson shouted so that the entire line waiting for the taxi was alarmed, and more and more people gathered around them.
“I’m going, it’s so popular!” Xiao Yao looked at the crowd surrounding Nicky Thompson and was also startled.
Xiao Yao originally wanted to take the opportunity to drive away, but seeing so many people surrounding Nicky Thompson, he couldn’t help worrying about the safety of Nicky Thompson, and felt a little regretful in his heart.
Of course, squeezing in to Nicky Thompson at this time is not within Xiao Yao’s consideration. Let’s not say that I can’t squeeze in by myself, even if I’m in, the role of a person is very limited.
Xiao Yao looked up and found that there was no airport security in the taxi line. Only a few uniformed security guards stood not far away from the entrance of the airport lobby. He picked up his suitcase and ran to the airport lobby. Doorway.
“Over there, where the taxi lined up, superstar Nicky Thompson was found and surrounded by others!” Xiao Yao rushed to a person wearing a security uniform.
“Huh? Superstar? Nicky Thompson?” The security guard was taken aback.
“Yes, superstar Nicky Thompson,” Xiao Yao said, “She is alone, there is no assistant, no bodyguard, there are many people there, everyone is very excited, I think there may be accidents!”
“Shit ” The security guard understood, he cursed, and immediately greeted the two security guards not far away and ran over there together, while running while pressing the walkie-talkie on his shoulder to say something.
Looking at several security guards squeezing into the crowd, Xiao Yao was slightly relieved, and then he dragged his suitcase and walked to the place where the taxi passengers lined up again.
Nicky Thompson’s location was where the taxis lined up to get on the bus. A group of people gathered around there seriously affected the order of queuing up there. In this case, Xiao Yao feels that security is nothing more than two choices. The first is to ask Nicky Thompson to jump in and arrange a taxi to let Nicky Thompson go first. The second is to protect Nicky Thompson from transferring to other places.
When Xiaoyao walked towards the taxi line, he found that the crowd surrounding Nicky Thompson began to move slowly. It seemed that the security had chosen the latter.
Although Nicky Thompson is surrounded by the crowd, it is unlikely to see Xiao Yao outside, Xiao Yao still lowered his head very low-key, and even made a slight detour, bypassing the crowd surrounding Nicky Thompson. .
Since many people were attracted by Nicky Thompson, they followed along, and there were fewer people lining up to take a taxi. Although Xiao Yao had to re-queue when he came back, there were not as many people in front of him. It didn’t take long for Xiao Yao to get a taxi and went to the hotel where he wanted to stay.
The hotel Xiao Yao will stay in is called Caesars Palace, which is a very famous hotel with a casino in Las Vegas. This hotel was recommended by Yan Ke’s card counting team. They have been to Las Vegas before and are very familiar with the hotels and casinos here. The blackjack table in the casino of Caesars Palace Hotel did not use the snail card machine. It was the first casino that Yan Ke recommended Xiao Yao to go to. Xiao Yao went to the casino, but since it was a casino in a hotel, he could stay at it. For convenience, Xiao Yao naturally chose this hotel.
Caesars Palace Hotel is located in the center of Las Vegas, Las Vegas’ McCarran Airport is located in Paradise, about 8 kilometers from the city center, not very far. Ten minutes later, Xiao Yao arrived at the Caesars Palace Hotel.
After completing the check-in procedures and entering his room, Xiao Yao gave a tip to the bellman who helped him carry the luggage to the room. He was about to sort the luggage, and the phone rang on his body.
Xiao Yao took out his mobile phone and took a look, smiled triumphantly, and pressed the answer button.
“Shaw? Where are you?” As soon as the call was connected, Nicky Thompson’s slightly anxious voice came, “Are you okay?”
Hearing Nicky Thompson caring about his safety, Xiao Yao felt a trace of guilt in his heart, put a smile away, and said: “I’m okay, are you okay?”
“It’s okay. The security sent me to the VIP room at the airport.” Nicky Thompson said, “Where are you now?”
“Me?” Xiao Yao laughed again when he heard Nicky Thompson was okay, “I am already in the hotel.”
“What? You have arrived at the hotel?” Nicky Thompson was surprised.
“Yeah!” Xiao Yao said, “You are surrounded by so many people. Obviously you can’t walk in a short time. Am I going to wait for you outside the airport?”
“Which hotel do you stay?” Nicky Thompson asked, “I contact the hotel and send a car to the airport to pick me up.”
Many hotels have airport shuttle services. Nicky Thompson used to be low-key and didn’t book a hotel in advance. Naturally, there was no hotel pick-up service. But now it is recognized that the taxi is not easy to take. Just book the hotel first and let the hotel send a car to the airport. Pick her up.
“What? Do you still want to stay with me in a hotel?” Xiao Yao said helplessly, “Nicky, you are a superstar, I am an ordinary person, we are not in the same world. Do you think I am with you and can still play Have a good time?”
“Why not? The hotel can help me keep it secret!” Nicky Thompson said, suddenly raising a tone, “Wait, why are you not surprised at all when you know that I am a star? No, you are surprised. When queuing, no, your surprise was performed at that time! My God! You did it on purpose! You knew I was a star, right? When? Boston? Or did you think of it on the plane?”
“I’m going! I’m only reacting now!” Xiao Yao complained in his heart.
“Hey, I live in a motel on the outskirts of the city. The signal here is not very good,” Xiao Yao raised his mobile phone and said away from him, hello, hello…”
After a few beeps, Xiao Yao hung up the phone decisively.
Just as Xiao Yao was about to put down the phone, the phone in his hand rang again. I looked at the caller ID on the phone screen and found that it was Nicky Thompson who called again.
“I’m going, it’s not over!” Xiao Yao decisively pressed the hang-up button, and then the other party’s number was included in the rejection list.
“Asshole!” On the other side, Nicky Thompson, who was still stranded in the airport VIP room, heard the voice on the phone and was so angry that he raised the phone in his hand and wanted to smash it on the ground. But Nicky Thompson just wanted to smash it. After a two-second pause, he dropped his hand holding the phone.
Even if Nicky Thompson is rich, it doesn’t hurt to smash a cell phone, and it’s not too troublesome to change the cell phone, but now people are still at the airport, and it is necessary for them to communicate with the outside world.
“Liar! Bastard!” Nicky Thompson gritted his teeth while holding his phone.
At this time, a young woman in a suit and uniform walked in and said to Nicky Thompson, “Miss Thompson, hello! My name is Diana Baker and I am the customer service manager at the airport.”
“Hello,” Nicky Thompson shook hands with the woman, and said apologetically, “I’m sorry! I’m traveling on a private trip, not a business trip, so I didn’t bring an assistant and bodyguard, and I didn’t notify the airport in advance. I have already Try to keep a low profile, but I didn’t expect it to be recognized. I didn’t mean to cause you trouble.”
“It’s okay.” The customer service manager smiled, and then said, “Now there are some people waiting for you outside. I don’t know what Miss Thompson’s plans are? Do you need us to arrange a vehicle to take you away?”
“The vehicle is no longer needed!” Nicky Thompson said, “I will contact the hotel now and let the hotel send a car to pick me up. It’s just that when I go out for a while, I have to trouble you to send some security personnel to help maintain order!”
“No problem!” The customer service manager nodded.
At this time, the phone in Nicky Thompson’s hand rang.
“Sorry, answer the call!” Nicky Thompson said to the customer service manager.
“Please!” The customer service manager made a gesture, “Should I go out?”
“No need!” Nicky Thompson waved his hand, walked aside two steps, and answered the phone.
It is polite to avoid other people’s calls, but the area of the VIP room is not small, unless it is a particularly secret call, otherwise there is no need to avoid the door. The task of the customer service manager was to come over to accompany Nicky Thompson. He couldn’t go back to his office and didn’t want to stand stupidly outside. Hearing this, he just stepped back two steps and stood near the door.
“Matt, did you find anything?” Nicky Thompson said.
The caller is a man whose name is Matt. Before the plane took off in Boston, Nicky Thompson called him to help investigate Xiao Yao.
“I have asked someone to help check it. There is no photographer in China whose work is signed by YaoXiao!” said Matt on the phone.
“What? No?” Nicky Thompson was surprised, “Are you sure?”
“I’m sure!” said the man named Matt on the other end of the phone. “Maybe there are, but it’s definitely not very famous!”
“He told me that I could travel around the world with the income of being a photographer, and it is impossible to be famous at all!” Nicky Thompson said, “So, is he lying to me?”
“Wait!” Matt said, “I just said that China does not have a well-known photographer signed by YaoXiao!”
“What do you mean?” Nicky Thompson asked.
“You said you were looking for a Chinese?” Matt asked.
“Yes,” Nicky Thompson said, “He said he is from China and his profession is a photographer!”
“According to the Chinese people’s habit, the last name is in the front and the first name is in the back.” Matt said, “If the person tells you the name is according to the English name convention, then the Chinese name of the Chinese person should be XiaoYao!”
“XiaoYao?” Nicky Thompson repeated it, and then said, “So what?”
“So,” Matt said, “A friend of Huaxia told me that XiaoYao is China’s superstar!”
“Superstar?” Nicky Thompson asked strangely, “A photographer?”
The photographer is a behind-the-scenes worker. No matter how famous the industry is, his popularity among the public is also limited. Those who are called superstars are generally acting stars or sports stars. Photographers are not called superstars, not even in the United States, let alone China.
“Not just a photographer,” Matt said. “He is also an actor, director, screenwriter, filmmaker, music producer, singer, musician, music creator, and it can be said to be an almighty superstar!”
“So many?” Nicky Thompson said, “It seems that the United States can’t find such a star, right? China has such a great person?
“Of course he is, and he is a world-class star, and he is also very famous in the United States and Europe.” Matt said, “Many Americans also know him, because he has done a lot of incredible things in the United States, and he has been on American news. , Many times, including entertainment news and social news.”
“A world-class star, also very famous in the United States? Actor, singer, producer…” Nicky Thompson muttered silently, and suddenly thought of someone, and said in surprise, “Is it?”
“Yes!” Matt laughed, “Young Shaw, a member of the Immortals band, a guest performer on the Eva show, a member and guest performer of the All-Star Celebrity Game, the robot Walli, the parkour boy, the New York airport hijacking case, The kidnapping case in New York Fashion Week is that of Yang Xiao! His Chinese name is XiaoYao, and according to English habits it is YaoXiao.”
“It’s him!” Nicky Thompson felt dizzy.
After the shock, Nicky Thompson’s next emotion was extremely unhappy.
Nicky Thompson was very upset by discovering that Xiao Yao had been lying to himself. Now that he knew that Xiao Yao was also a star, the unhappy mood that had just been suppressed in Nicky Thompson’s heart not only turned up again, but also increased. More than doubled.
“He not only knew that I was a celebrity but kept pretending not to know, but also kept concealing his celebrity identity and lied to me that he was an ordinary person. I was deceived by him for two things, and I was a double idiot! ”
“Liar! Bastard!” Thinking of this, Nicky Thompson couldn’t help but cursed again.
