Chapter 285 The Life of a Marginal Man
It turns out that this person is called Arthur
However, Arthur looked like he was restless and looked different from a normal person.
And his laughter was very weird.
As the film progressed, the audience finally figured it out.
It turns out that this is a disease
Suddenly, a plain and unpretentious ordinary life seeker who lives at the bottom of Gotham suddenly appeared on the screen.
Outside, Arthur tried hard to face life, although life was not good for him, and the market hit him.
But he will still work hard for his dreams, admire and long for those awesome talk show actors, and will also try hard to record every word they have said seriously.
In psychological counseling, I faced questions from social workers.
Arthur obviously hesitated for a moment, and finally handed her his worn-out notebook.
This is his diary. For Arthur, this book is actually as important as his own life.
Because there are two sentences in the book that are very important, one is: "To question and joy to the world", and turn a few pages back and say "I just wish my death makes more sense than my life."
The first sentence was told by Arthur's mother since she was a child, and he also regarded this sentence as his life creed. The second sentence actually implies his own pain and his mental abnormality.
It is worth mentioning that his words are written in a crooked manner, which shows that he is not well educated, and there are various pictures on the notebook, which are messy. The social worker stopped when he saw the second sentence, and then he could see a series of expressions on Arthur's face, confused, helpless, and fake smiles. After that, the social worker gave him three more prescribed based on the original 7 medicines, "I just tried to make myself less sad."
Afterwards, Arthur made a little girl laugh on the bus home, just like some other people who live normally, like children and new hopes.
But it was soon stopped by the little girl's mother. At this time, Arthur fell ill and couldn't stop laughing. He could only hand the piece of paper prepared in advance to the mother: "I'm sorry, I have a brain problem and I often smile uncontrollably."
At this moment, Robert and his old friend who were watching the movie in the cinema were also fascinated by the viewing.
My old friend no longer sticks to whether this movie describes a perverted crime movie.
He even started to think about the movies, and began to think about the purpose of these details.
"The director here seems to want to say that Arthur longs for new hopes and yearns for new hopes, but the watcher of the new hope does not welcome him and rejects him. He is destined to be able to stay in the old world and life?"
An old friend analyzed.
As an old generation of dead home, he has strong association and imagination, otherwise he would not have conceived such an unrealistic game in his mind.
Robert nodded in agreement: "I felt this way when I saw it."
"This person is so miserable." An old friend sighed: "If this is placed on any normal person, he will be driven crazy sooner or later. Arthur can still have new hopes until now, but I can read something from his eyes. Now the new hope rejects my metaphor, as if some of the longings in his eyes have completely disappeared."
The movie continues, obviously, not only old friends and Robert are analyzing and watching the movie carefully.
In the cinema, everyone was watching attentively.
In the plot, Arthur walked into the building, opened a mailbox, closed it, and went upstairs. It seemed as usual that no one cared about him and tried to contact him.
On the elevator upstairs, Arthur met a black lady who was not concerned about Arthur's actions, and even pointed his finger at his temples in a joke and made a headshot gesture.
You know, this has never been done in Arthur's previous life!
No one will repay himself with kindness!
Arthur clearly showed his favorable impression of this lady, and this hard-won recognition made Arthur very useful.
When she got home, her mother kept asking him if there was a letter, why there was no reply from Thomas Wayne. She had worked for him for 24 years and he would not leave them alone.
A lot of important information is brought out from here.
For example, Thomas Wayne, and his mother worked for this man for 24 years.
At the same time, Arthur poured out the medicines he took, mostly anti-depressant and insomnia drugs. It was reported on TV that Wayne was running for mayor.
"He will definitely make Gotham City better," said the mother.
This look is so admiring, so gentle, and so firm.
But Arthur said it impatiently over and over again.
Thomas Wayne is a giant in Gotham City and a big shot. He faces a lot of money inflows every day. He is a busy man and will not have the time to remember these small characters.
Maybe I have long forgotten that I had such an employee at home before.
After all, no elephant will remember one of the ants that have been with you for a long time.
What's more, Arthur's mother was just one of the hundreds of people who worked for the Wayne family.
So, how could Thomas Wayne remember them?
Despite this, Arthur wanted to be a stand-up comedian, bringing joy to people, and trying to create new jokes. He also dreamed of performing on the same stage with his idol comedian Franklin, and subconsciously treating him as his father.
Arthur was able to finally take off all his disguise at home, and was very casual, taking off his clothes and revealing his thin body.
Even so thin that the audience could see every rib on Arthur's body through the screen.
Arthur hugged his hands, showing off his skinny body to the fullest, smoking and dancing.
At this moment, Arthur, who had a scar on the corner of his eyes, looked so elegant.
When he was putting on makeup at work the next day, a fat colleague of Arthur gave him a pistol and told him to use it for self-defense.
Arthur was very unnatural at the beginning and he was frightened.
But colleagues said: "You should protect yourself."
At this time, the movie gave the gun a big close-up, as if telling the audience that this plot is a very important node.
Then the manager talked to him and asked him why you didn’t change the billboard yesterday, and you’ll get out if you have such a problem next time.
"If you still do this next time, don't do it. The funny clown will never lack people to do it! Especially a weird person like you!"
The manager roared.
Arthur kept laughing, the kind of smile that was motionless.
