Daniel didn't know why he came to Nairobi, but when he had doubts, he didn't think of going back to Brooklyn, nor did he want to go back to the capital of China. His first thought was this city he had visited before. And the mutilated animals in animal shelters.

It was kind of weird, but then Daniel found a reason for himself.

His problem is that he finds that his soul and body are separate and thus strange to each other.

Whether it is the soul of the Chinese or the body of the American, it seems that there is a rejection reaction.

This is a bit mysterious, but the rebirth of possession is even more mysterious.

So, he hopes to eliminate this sense of exclusion.

Going to China can only enhance the sense of belonging of the soul, while going to Brooklyn is to support the body.

So he couldn't go, but Nairobi and the National Wildlife Park left Daniel with the impression that they were natural and inclusive—on the edge of the busiest capital, there was the vast Wildlife Park, the animal relief house, Filled with the breath of different lives, he subconsciously thought that he could find some solutions to his inconsistency here.

A friend in Nairobi found him a job as an assistant in a relief center. Everyone wore masks and hats to work, but he never took them off, but no one insisted that he take them off.

...

"Do they look like Daniel's eyes? An animal worker I met in Nairobi was also in good shape."

An American tourist posted a photo on his f2f. In the photo, a staff member in a blue protective suit was concentrating on treating the wound of a young cheetah.

Her friends all agreed that it was indeed a bit similar.

The head shape is a bit similar, the eyes are a bit alike, the hands are a bit alike, and the body is a bit alike.

"I think he might be Daniel!"

One of her friends is a fan of Daniel. He is very familiar with Daniel - of course, he also knows that Daniel has encountered some problems during the filming of "Avatar" and has left the United States to relax - this is the official statement of Daniel's team.

So why is it impossible for him to show up in Nairobi?

The fan of Daniel quietly saved the photo. But he didn't say anything.

...

On the fourth day of joining Al Georgie Animal Relief, Daniel participated in the rescue of the little cheetah.

It appeared to have been attacked by hyenas, but survived the struggle, was spotted by patrols and taken to a shelter. There were not enough people, so Daniel stepped in to help.

The little cheetah's fur is still soft, and there is a shocking scar on its hind leg.

"If it is not treated, it will die due to infection and inflammation." Julia told Daniel from the treatment center.

Daniel nodded and asked suddenly, "What do you think it's thinking?"

"kindness?"

What is an injured, anesthetized, and being treated cub thinking?

Julia paused.

Daniel laughed himself first, "It may have lost consciousness a long time ago.

Is it? He can't think of anything. "

"No," Julia looked into Daniel's eyes, "it didn't lose consciousness, you can test its pupils, it just lost control of its body. So I think, it should be panicking, but maybe there is still a little expectation, it Knowing that I am being treated, I look forward to being able to return to the familiar living environment after recovery.”

Julia thought. As an animal medical scientist, it is not surprising to speculate on what the little cheetah is thinking.

Daniel was touched by her words.

His own state is also fear and panic. Also because of a loss of control over the body—or rather, a loss of identity.

So, does he have expectations?

what to expect

...

On the tenth day in Nairobi, he knew that Los Angeles might have reached its limit, and maybe it was time for him to go back.

Although he hasn't found the answer yet, at least he has calmed down the sudden surge of panic.

He bids farewell to Julia.

"I'm going back to my country."

"So you're saying goodbye to me wearing a mask?"

"There's nothing wrong with that. Isn't it? You don't have to know what he looks like to know someone."

Julia shrugged her shoulders, and took out a small figure from her pocket—it turned out to belong to an elf prince. Daniel almost thought he had been recognized.

"Give it to you as a present. I found it in my pocket this morning. It may have been put by my son."

Daniel held the figure and suddenly fell silent.

Daniel has often been like this these days, so it's not surprising that Julia turned around and went to do her own thing.

"Is my body different from Legolas? Is it different from Jack Sparrow and Jason Bourne?" Daniel muttered to himself, "The difference is that I need to play a role in the real world for a lifetime." This character, and others, are just in a certain world, for a certain period of time, that's all."

Daniel felt that he had understood something.

He has always hoped to fuse body and soul together to become a real individual - but the soul's memory of the original body makes this impossible. The soul has always lived in the body, and the two are more like a cooperative relationship with each other-but neither realizes it.

It wasn't until he starred in "Avatar" that this point was clearly pointed out.

Panic hit like a tide.

But why must it be integrated?

Maintaining a sober, disembodied cooperative model, which has worked well for the past seven years, just recognizes that there is no reason why things should go wrong.

Daniel suddenly laughed.

"Now, I'm a popular big star."

He walked behind Julia and patted her on the shoulder, "Your son likes him very much? Or is it Daniel who plays him?"

He pointed to Legolas.

"It should be Daniel, because he seems to like the pirate captain very much."

Daniel took off his mask, showing his big white teeth, "Tell him, when I return to Los Angeles, I will send him some signed gifts. Goodbye, Julia."

Julia was severely shocked, and only recovered after Daniel had left for a while.

"God, Daniel Sandler!"

...

Daniel, who had returned to Los Angeles, could no longer see any confusion and anxiety on his body.

"Problem solved?" Kusa looked him up and down.

"Maybe."

"If you don't come back, James may not be able to bear it anymore." Kusa spread his hands, "His inquiries became more and more direct, and he almost asked me to bring you back."

"I'll start working tomorrow, don't worry, Kusa." (To be continued.)
