Chapter Seventy-Two: Terror

I'm tired to death these days, I'm too annoying to work, is there a time when there is enough time for work codewords? I'm tired, ask for a recommendation vote for comfort.

Murphy was silent, as if considering the meaning of Rose's words.

Seeing that Murphy didn't speak, Rose coughed and said, "I have a lot of spare money in my hands. ”

"That's right."

Hearing this, Murphy had already understood Rose's intentions, smiled, and politely refused, "I'm not short of money for the time being, and when I don't have enough funds, I will definitely call you." ”

He sighed in his heart, and even his hands and feet were a little cold the moment he finished speaking, many things in this world are always so helpless, could it be that the environment has changed, and the relationship between people will also change?

He didn't know if Rose's idea was improvised, or if it had been there before he came, but he had to refuse, even if it might lead to the fact that the two of them could never be the same as they had been in prison.

Glancing at Murphy again, Rose nodded, said no more, and turned to the roast on the table.

Murphy didn't speak, and there was no inner turmoil on his calm face, but he concentrated on his dinner.

This kind of thing can't start at all, and once it has a beginning, it will fall into an endless loop.

Rose quickly finished eating, stood up and said, "I have something to do, let's go first." ”

After saying that, he waved to the people at the other table, and Murphy didn't hold back, sending them out of the restaurant.

Watching Rose's car go away, Murphy went back to the restaurant to settle the bill, and when he came out, he walked in the opposite direction, frowning along the way, and from the day he left prison to choose his career, he and Rose took two completely different paths.

Rose has helped him a lot, and it seems that he should also help Rose, if it is something else, Murphy will not hesitate to agree, but the consequences of this kind of thing are quite severe, especially since he may still be watched by the Los Angeles police, and once he is investigated, he is afraid that he will go to prison again.

To be honest, he didn't expect Ross to make such a request, money laundering has gone beyond the boundaries of helping friends.

Turning his head to look in the direction Rose had left, Murphy sighed, picked up his pocket, and walked unwaveringly forward.

In the days that followed, Murphy packed up his rented house and Stanton Studios had an official office location, but after the "Hard Candy" crew disbanded, he was once again the sole employee.

Fortunately, Paul Wilson will graduate in the summer, and the next few months will still be dominated by internships, and after hearing that Murphy is preparing a new project, he has already said that he will continue to work for Stanton Studios.

Recruitment can be put into the future, Murphy is not in a hurry, after the house is cleaned up, he hides in the study at home to prepare for a new film project.

One of them is to watch videos, he rented a large number of horror movies from a nearby video chain store, and planned to watch at least three of them a day, and then write a suitable script based on the main plot in his memory.

The new work is like "Fruit Hard Candy", and it will also be a large-scale Cut film.

The nearly one million dollars in Stanton Studio's account is a huge amount of money even in a city like Los Angeles, which seems like a lot, but it is still a drop in the bucket for making movies.

A small investment film can only be the only option.

In February 2001, schools in North America were opening one after another, and some people were looking for them.

"I'm back!"

Hearing the doorbell, Murphy went downstairs and opened the door, and there was a blonde girl standing outside, "You're not happy to see me!" ”

Murphy rubbed his somewhat stiff face, quickly moved out of the door, beckoned Kerry Mulligan in, and said, "I've been too tired these past few days, and my spirit is not very good. ”

"Still watching horror movies?" Kerry Mulligan asked with concern.

On the phone these days, Murphy mentioned this to her.

Murphy led the way, walked out of the hallway, and came to the living room, "I've seen too much, and I want to vomit." ”

I have watched too many American plasma tablets, and I am not comfortable at all.

"I told you......" Kerry Mulligan looked at the partitioned desk in the living room, his bag still on it, "don't get too tired, beware of another headache." ”

"It's too much chaos here," Murphy said as he walked up the stairs, "let's go upstairs." ”

Carey Mulligan followed Murphy into the study on the second floor, and after entering, he turned off the TV and video player, and then opened the south-facing window, and a gust of wind blew in, and the feeling of depression in the study dissipated a lot.

"You sit as you like." Murphy pointed to the chair in front of the desk, and made it behind the desk himself, "Tea?" ”

"No," Kerry Mulligan looked curiously, "I'm not thirsty. ”

"You ......" Murphy poured himself a cup of tea and looked at Kerry Mulligan across the street, "it doesn't seem to be the same." ”

The baby's face was still innocent and cute, and his short blonde hair was neatly combed, and it looked the same as Kerry Mulligan in the past, but Murphy always felt that something had changed.

Carey Mulligan pouted, "Because I've been in hell for a month!" ”

With resentment in her eyes, she said in a sarcastic tone, "The great Mr. and Mrs. Mulligan have hired an English etiquette teacher for me!" ”

Murphy nodded sympathetically, this kind of thing is terrifying to think about.

"I've been tortured by her for a whole month!" Carey Mulligan held up a finger and said with a bit of madness, "It's a miracle that I survived and didn't die." ”

Looking at Murphy, her frantic expression instantly dissipated, and she shook her head and said, "If I couldn't talk to you on the phone, I wouldn't be able to survive." ”

Murphy took a sip from his teacup, feeling a little better and comforted, "It's all over now." ”

"Hmm......" Kerry Mulligan nodded slightly, took off the hairpin on his head, and threw it on the table, "I don't want to go back to London again." ”

Thinking of the Mulligan couple in London, Murphy secretly shook his head, those two were rigid and stubborn, and they didn't know how to communicate with their daughters at all.

Seeing that Murphy didn't speak, Carey Mulligan raised his voice slightly, "What I said is true, not joking with you." ”

She leaned on the table and propped her chin on her chin, "By May I will be sixteen years old, and I will be able to drop out of school." ”

"Drop out?" Murphy looked at her curiously.

"yes, it's dropping out." Carey Mulligan propped up and said very seriously, "School, parents, homework...... These are tying me up, I'm fed up, I have to drop out of school, I want to be a real actor. ”

She blinked her big smart eyes and said pitifully, "You're going to support me, aren't you, Murphy?" ”

Murphy smiled and replied casually, "I'll always support you." ”

"Great!" Carey Mulligan jumped straight out of his chair and shouted, "I'm going to go out into Hollywood with you!" I will be the best actor and you will be the greatest director! ”

She jumped over and took Murphy's hand, "Let's go, let's get out." ”

Murphy didn't know what she was going to do, and slowly stood up.

Carey Mulligan pulled him downstairs and said, "Let's go to the movies together, I've been waiting for this day for a long time, and I can finally see me on the big screen!" ”

When she said this, Murphy remembered that she was isolated from the world these days, forgetting that "Hard Candy" had been pushed into the theater by Miramax after a simple publicity.
