[The Great Gatsby] Male God

Chapter 1 Encounter

Coming east was the right decision.Here, Nick met the most important person in his life.

Nick was originally in a midwestern city with a wealthy family.Calling him by his first name may be unremarkable, but if the surname Calloway is mentioned, it can be said that there is no one who does not know it there.Nick is also rumored to be a descendant of the Duke of Bouclouche.Although the founder of the family line was his great-uncle, it was a commendable honor.When Nick graduated from Yale seven years ago, he hadn't thought about coming East.After World War I, the Midwest gradually became desolate in his mind. In the early summer of [-], he finally decided to come to the East to learn how to do bond business.

In those years, bonds, stocks, and gold are always the easiest and most attractive overnight.

His father provided one year's fees, and a bond company in the east also took him.There are even colleagues who are willing to share the rent with him.The rent is only eighty dollars.Although the guy was transferred to Washington at the end of the day, Nick had to pay for it himself.He will be a little lonely, but in any case, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

So, he carried his suitcase with peace of mind and started the journey.

The meaning of this summer in his life is different after all.

The target was West Egg, but about halfway between West Egg and New York, the auto road and the railroad converged to avoid a desolate place where there was a queer farm.There are also many poor workers of all shapes and colors.

Nick was a little tired in the crowded car.

He was sitting by the window with his eyes slightly closed, and when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly woke up.

The young woman opposite was holding a child who was eating ice cream in her arms. She looked about six or seven years old, with brown-red hair standing up like weeds, very willful.

He was playing with Nick's bangs persistently.

It didn't matter, but his hands were covered with sticky jam.

Nick was taken aback, and he let go of him.The outstretched hand was quickly retracted, but the smell of strawberries still wafted over.

The child was a little panicked, but soon after, he showed a provocative expression.The young woman also hugged him dotingly, and looked indifferent to Nick.

A real gentleman cannot be angry with women and children.Nick smiled self-deprecatingly, took out the Pale from his trouser pocket and wiped it, only to be a little annoyed when he found that it wasn't clean.

The car has just arrived at a stop, and there are probably many people getting off.There are also many new customers coming up.

He took advantage of the gap to look around, and it happened to be a garage.

I vaguely remember something to do here.Nick turned out the notebook and flipped through a few pages in a hurry, but the car started.

"Wait!" Nick panicked, his voice drowned out by the spinning wheels.

He couldn't care less, grabbed the suitcase and jumped!

"—Hey!" A young and beautiful voice answered him.Nick had never seen such a fine voice, it was gentle and full of deep magnetism, as if a huge magnet attracted him.

Before Nick could see who the man was, he had already plunged into his arms.Thanks to this person, he didn't fall to the ground without a single bone.Maybe it was such a coincidence that he happened to pass by his side.

When he came to his senses, the car had already driven away, and the man was still standing in front of him.

Nick gave a thankful "God" and then felt embarrassed.

The man in front of him was as handsome as a prince, which made him somewhat ashamed.

The man had blond hair as bright as straw. He was in his early thirties. He had a stalwart figure, like a mighty knight, and also like a statue solidified in the wind and rain, but as long as he smiled, all the coldness melted away.His smile is rarely encountered in a lifetime.It was a smile full of tenderness and trust, with kindness and preference, like the eternity of the world, fixed on the person being watched, with irresistible determination, making people greedy and addicted.

Nick actually suddenly had the feeling of being pampered.He couldn't help being stunned, feeling incredible, but he couldn't bear to move his eyes.It was a kind of enjoyment to see himself from that person's eyes shining like sea water.Although at this time, Nick does not know what this encounter will bring them.But his intuition told him that he really wanted to know this person and make friends with him.

Without thinking about it, he announced his family name, and at the same time stretched out his hand: "Nick Carraway."

"Jay Ga..." The man was halfway through, and suddenly coughed, and hurriedly raised his hands to cover his nose.

In fact, his name is not Jay, nor is his surname Gatsby, but after he was hit to death by a car on the road a month ago, he became Gatsby inexplicably after waking up.Probably this kind of situation is called time travel. After getting used to this body gradually, check Gatsby's memory.Gates found that he was also a very poor person.

He is persistently in love with Daisy, who is greedy for vanity, and fabricates a luxurious background for this. As a result, in the separation of the war, his goddess finally couldn't wait any longer and married another nobleman Tom. Even so, Gatsby He didn't give up on her either.

Until one day when he comes back in a splendid way, the wealthy Gatsby sings every night, just to attract Daisy's attention, and even gets close to Daisy again through Nick.Because they are cousins.

The ending of Gatsby is also very lamentable.

Gates, who traveled through time, vaguely remembered a certain story he had read, and the protagonist of that story was exactly Gatsby.Since Gatsby once had the same surname as Gates, Gates took a few extra glances.At that time, he roughly flipped through and knew that Gatsby's final result was death, because Daisy killed her husband's mistress, but let Gatsby take the responsibility.Gatsby was innocently shot by the Avengers, but Daisy and Tom fled away like nothing happened.

That's what the goddess who claims to love him does.Daisy, the woman who claims to love him as well as Tom, has her feet on two boats, and finally she can happily be an innocent lady.

It's not fair.Of course it shouldn't be like this.

Gates still remembered that when he closed the book, he still laughed and called Gatsby a fool, but now he turned into him, it was a joke of fate.

However, the story seems to have only just begun.There are still plenty of chances for a comeback.

He wasn't close to Daisy yet, and he certainly didn't have to be so stupid as to die for her.Everything is at the starting point, not only can he change his own destiny, but of course he can also make that vicious couple pay the price.If Daisy is still as vain as before, trying to get benefits from him, if she is still so hypocritical and ruthless, then don't blame him for being cruel.

Those who do wrong should pay the price.

Fate arranged that the person he met was Nick.This man was really better than Gatsby from beginning to end. When Gates first saw him, he thought he was a good fit.

Moreover, he had a feeling that the man in front of him might like men just like him.

Since this is the case, let him use his current identity to "deceive" him first.

From now on, he will temporarily block the surname "Gates" and use "Gatsby".Until one day, when everything is worth making public.

Gatsby did not speak for a long time, and Nick called again softly: "Mr. After listening to it, I thought self-righteously.

Gatsby froze for a moment, apparently not expecting this result.After a while, he laughed again: "Call me Jay."

Infected by the warm smile, Nick grinned his lips involuntarily, and nodded, "Thank you just now. Well... I'm going to West Egg, is it convenient to pick up the car now?"

My father once asked someone to buy an old Dougie for Nick here, and he reserved it in the garage, saying that he would come to pick it up on the day he arrived.Nick could then drive the car straight to West Egg.This is also a supporting means of transportation.It is easy to recognize, it is said that the color is not bad, and the color is also very dark.

Nick thought, it just so happened that Gatsby came to pick him up, probably he was a worker in the garage.

Gatsby blinked dumbfoundedly, and looked down at himself.He also came to pick up the car and screwed the screws by the way.But I was afraid of getting dirty, so I borrowed a coat from an acquaintance.The off-white canvas jacket, the long trousers covering the blue sneakers, and the wrench for screwing screws in his hand, really looked like a car repairman.

He took a quick glance just now, and saw Nick jumping out of the car, and rushed over by accident.

This can be regarded as a coincidence, and Nick will suddenly say the last name "Gates".

Gatsby narrowed his eyes.

Nick is really a special, interesting person.Suddenly, he didn't want to explain anything.

Gatsby remembered a dream he had had for a long time.In the dream, a young man with a vague outline vaguely resembles Nick.

Looking at the person in front of him, Gatsby was in a daze, and he did what Nick said.

Nick thought he had acquiesced, and asked again.

Gatsby asked if it was a Dodge, and he remembered that there was such a car in the garage, but Wilson, the owner, was not there now. He looked at Nick, suddenly smiled and raised his hand: "Hey, man, don't you think it's better now?" Do you need to wash your hair first?"

Nick woke up suddenly, saw that Gatsby's chest was also rubbed with strawberry jam, and smiled embarrassedly.

Gatsby pulled him up naturally: "Come on, buddy, there's a barber shop ahead, I'll take you there."

The author has something to say:

About this doujin (combined doujin of the original book and movie) is to change Gatsby's fate, and will abuse Daisy and Tom.On the basis of the original book, the setting is changed (the setting is just like the copywriting), and new characters (supporting roles) are added. The main purpose of the article is to make Gatsby and Nick HE, Daisy and Tom have a hard time, and everything will go to this direction to go.

This Gatsby is time-traveled, and his original surname is Gates, which is the same as Gatsby's real surname.

Regarding the content of the original work, let me briefly talk about it. I sorted it out by myself, so that friends who have not read it can read the text.

Gatsby, who was born as a farmer, left his hometown at the age of 17 to find success. He changed his name and surname to break with the past.In an accident, he saved the captain Cody's life and was appreciated, thinking that he could join the upper class from then on.However, the good times didn't last long. After Cody died, Gatsby, who failed to inherit the inheritance, returned to the ranks of the poor.After that, he met Daisy, a noble lady, and fell in love with her deeply.Yet the war separated them for five years.Gatsby failed to come back, and Daisy fell into the arms of another rich man, nobleman Tom, and married him as his wife.But Tom is a hypocrite who is different from the inside and outside, and he is comfortable with Daisy and his mistress Myrtle.Daisy was in great pain but could not bear to give up.Finally, Gatsby returns gorgeously, sets up a castle opposite Daisy's house, and sings every night, hoping to attract Daisy's attention.Daisy's cousin Nick is Gatsby's neighbor, and Gatsby reunites with Daisy through him.But Daisy just wants to enjoy Guy's favor and money, and doesn't want to give up her status as a noble lady.Finally one day, she bumped and killed her husband's mistress, but put the blame on Gatsby, and Gatsby was killed by the mistress' husband.But the real sinners, Daisy and Tom, left here with impunity.
