American Gunslinger and Detective

Roland continued: "Since returning here from California, you have been living here with me. Here, my name is Indris Elba, and only some people will call me Roland Deshan. And your name is

Jimmy Yang, your father’s name is Sheng Yang.

Jack and I have lived here since the 1980s, and Jack left here when he became an adult. Then you lived here too until you left two years ago."

(The plot here is based on the plot of the movie. The movie does not explain the time when Jack Chambers arrived in the world of the Dark Tower. Although it seems that it should be after 2010, the time marked in the novel "The Gunslinger" shows that Jack came from 1977

New York, then the time for the gunslinger who stayed in the current world after fighting the man in black is set in 1977. Please don’t get hung up on the modern content in the movie, it’s a different universe after all.)

"After I stayed in this world, Jack and I used his Shining ability to find the cracks created by the connection points between this world and other worlds, destroy the monsters near the cracks, let the cracks heal themselves, or destroy the controller.

Close the rift."

"When I met you and your father, it was when I was closing the rift over there in Death Valley. The rift there was connected to a world similar to your legendary hell. Your father was attacked by monsters that came out of the rift.

And die."

"After I brought you back, I started to teach you how to use a gun. You have been learning for 8 years. The so-called revolver talent you just mentioned should be the muscle memory left over from those years."

"Since Jack left, without the prophecies of The Shining, I have rarely found other cracks. Two years ago, I heard from the news that a monster appeared on a barren mountain in Big Bend National Park. I took it with me

You went to deal with it, and after you came back, you left here with your gun, until today."

Jimmy didn't make a sound, just quietly digesting what Roland just said. After Roland said this, he stopped and said nothing more.

Jimmy: "I have a few questions. The first one is, what kind of monster was my father killed by?"

Roland: "A kind of little devil with two legs and four arms, and green flames emitting from parts of its body."

Jimmy: "So, you brought me back after my father died. Where is my father's body?"

Roland: "Swallowed by green flames. I couldn't extinguish that kind of flame. After he told me to take care of you, he was swallowed up by the flames."

Jimmy: "You just said that after you stay in this world, did I hear you correctly? Where are you from?"

Roland: "Another world, a world similar to the Middle Ages. After we eliminated the enemy, there was no going back. Jack should have told you about this. He is also a participant."

Jimmy: "Why did I leave? What happened in Big Bend National Park? What could have caused an 18-year-old to leave the place where he had lived for 8 years and become homeless."

Roland was silent for a while, then shook his head, "It's in the past. Now that you have become the sheriff, don't think about the past anymore."

Jimmy: "You just said I'm not Jimmy, why? Don't lie, I can feel that you were really sure and wanted to shoot."

Roland: "You have lived here for 8 years. Although I haven't seen you for 2 years, you have changed so much, the way you speak."

Jimmy: "No, no, it's definitely not just that. You were really about to shoot just now."

Roland was silent again, and then said: "I don't know what's going on, but your soul is different."

Jimmy and Roland were silent at the same time. The two sat on the sofa in a daze for a few minutes. Roland spoke first.

Roland: "We were called gunslingers in the previous world. We resisted evil and protected the Dark Tower, relying on the guns in our hands and our will. In some cases, we can sense evil."

Roland looked at Jimmy: "Your soul exuded some violent aura before. I can understand that you saw your father die in the hands of the devil with your own eyes, but now that aura has disappeared. But I can still feel your soul.

In my opinion, you are very similar to Jack, except that his talent is the Shining and he can predict some scenes, but for you, I don't know."

Jimmy knew what was happening to him. He traveled from his past life and directly took over this body. It was obvious that his soul did not match his body.

From his own experience, he can infer that this world is not safe. The rift in the world that Roland just mentioned is probably real, so it will be explained clearly that he can travel through it. There must be a rift on the other side of Little Rock City, and then

He came here by himself, and his soul occupied Jimmy's original body.

So what about Jimmy's original soul? Did it disappear or was it suppressed by his own soul after being taken away from him?

Jimmy: "Then can you still see my soul now?"

Roland: "No, I can't see the soul. I can only perceive evil and danger."

Jimmy continued to think about his own affairs and did not continue to ask Roland questions.

Roland: "Jimmy, are you hungry? Let's stay and have lunch together."

Jimmy looked at Roland's face and nodded. This was the first time he called himself Jimmy besides meeting him.

The corners of Roland's mouth twitched visibly. No matter what, Jimmy had lived with him for eight years. Seeing this child again made Roland feel very happy.

Jimmy is not really Jimmy, but he doesn't want to refuse Roland's kindness. And Jimmy is basically sure that Roland has discovered something, but Roland has no idea of ​​killing him now.

Roland may have been a gunman before, but now he just looks like an old man with almost white hair.

The two of them had a not rich but very substantial lunch, which consisted of bread, fried fish steaks, barbecue and salad. The meat was obtained by Roland from hunting in the woods, and the fish was obviously caught or caught from the lake.

Roland's life is basically self-sufficient. Jimmy has a big appetite now, and he still had enough to eat from this meal.

While eating, the two of them chatted about some things in Jimmy's past life, which could be regarded as filling up Jimmy's past experiences.

After lunch, Jimmy came outside and stood by the lake looking at the lake. He was not the Jimmy before, and he had no special feelings for Roland. He came here mainly to make up for some things about his body that he now understands.

It's almost done.

The harvest this time was bigger than expected. I originally thought that I just knew who my predecessor was, what experiences I had in the past, and now I also know about the cracks in the world, and the actual danger. I gained a lot, but it seems to be of no use.

As an ordinary person, there is no way to deal with these demons or strange creatures from other worlds.

It seems that we still need to learn from Roland how they handled it in the past, so that we can have the ability to protect ourselves.
