Chapter XVIII. Paul's feast
"You're saying that the movie shot by the actor can still be preserved as video data?" Since it is a movie, of course it is for people to see, and Lu Yu quickly understood what Shangguan Xue meant. "In other words, the previous "Where is the Road" also has a corresponding record, right?"
"Of course, every movie shot in the theater will be recorded in the library, and the actors can review the entire filming process by paying for it," Shangguan Xue said earnestly.
"Salary?" Somehow, Lu Yu thought of his pitiful salary again, and said with some surprise, "So are you willing to spend your salary to train me?" β
"I borrowed the cost of Paul's Banquet, and you need to pay me back on time at the rate of twenty percent, after all, I'm not a philanthropist."
"Isn't it, I haven't made any money yet, so you're starting to deduct it?" When Lu Yu heard this, he was immediately anxious, "Then I choose not to watch it, can you return the deducted salary to me?" β
"Of course not." Shangguan Xue stretched out her hand and took the popcorn bucket on the table in her arms, and said naturally.
"This popcorn... Is it also a value-added service for theaters? Since the movie is not an ordinary movie, then popcorn is definitely not an ordinary popcorn, Lu Yu secretly speculated in his heart about the special role of this bucket of popcorn.
Lu Yu can understand that he can see other people's filming experiences when he watches a movie, but the bucket in front of him that exudes an attractive fragrance and creamy popcorn is just ordinary popcorn no matter how you look at it.
Could it be a hidden mystery, thinking like this, Lu Yu looked up and down the popcorn seriously.
"Of course not." Shangguan Xue, who was sitting on the sofa, grabbed another handful of popcorn and put it in her mouth, and said coldly, "Watching movies and eating popcorn, this is just my personal hobby, you don't need to pay attention to it." β
Hiss β
With a burst of eerie background music, the movie begins.
...
In the dark underground palace, a black round table large enough to hold dozens of people was successively placed twelve faint candle stoves. Correspondingly, twelve black-robed men of different shapes sat around the candlestick.
Strangely, although these people sat opposite each other, they did not have the slightest intention of communicating with each other. Everyone tried their best to keep their faces down, trying to place themselves in the shadows behind them.
[Narrator: The great teacher of yesteryear is in prison, and the great school is suffering from this brutal bloodbath, and there are signs that there must be a traitor among the disciples who accompany him.] Paul saw what was happening, but he couldn't do anything about it. A coincidence brought the disciples together. Annihilation and creation, the fate of truth is about to go unknown in this little banquet. γ
The first to speak was a teenager with a childish face, and he tried to make everyone take turns to accept themselves according to their own script.
.......
......
'Based on the available evidence, I'm sure the murderer isβ' The man with the eyes stroked his eyes and pointed his finger at the young boy under the incredulous gaze of everyone.
I was raised by a teacher, and my teacher is like my own father to me. After the arrest of the teacher, my disciples suffered the most. You say I'm a traitor, I want to ask you why did I betray the teacher, what do I get? The young man, who had been silent, did not wait for the man with the eyes to finish speaking, and immediately retorted, "On the contrary, it is you, according to you, your father was once a duke in the old society, and you fell under the teacher's door because of the persecution of the family, how can you prove that the teachings in your heart are still pure?"
....
'I'm really.. It's really not a traitor' In the face of everyone's backlash, the man with the eyes who had always been calm and calm finally changed his face.
Poof-
The eyeless man argued, and in the darkness, a rusty iron hook instantly penetrated his throat.
Things have come to this point, and everyone here can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Seeing the corpse of the eyed man being slowly dragged by the hook lock from the darkness, everyone finally laughed, and the boy laughed too.
It's just that... No one noticed that the boy's smiling face looked so unnatural under the constantly dancing candlelight.
...
The movie is not long, but the oppressive atmosphere of the whole movie once made me breathless, which made Lu Yu really feel the gap between people.
From the very beginning, take the initiative to speak, and build your own small group. When he was almost exposed, he used a very deceptive sophistry to dispel everyone's suspicions about himself. and then to the fatal blow at the final voting moment, this teenager who seems to be in his early twenties feels like an experienced old hunter, step by step leading his prey into a trap.
Whew-
On the side of the corridor, Lu Yu exhaled deeply, feeling a little better this time.
Gourd baby, gourd baby, seven babies on a vine~
The constant vibration frequency in his pocket coupled with the familiar ringtone of incoming calls, Lu Yu suddenly had a bad premonition.
Immediately unlocked the screen lock and looked, not surprisingly, it was still Sun Banxian calling.
"Half-immortal, why did you call again." This time, Lu Yu preemptively said the words, "Or are you here to ask me about the situation?" I solemnly promise you now, I'm not dead, so don't worry about that idleness when you're old, okay? β
"I'm not so bored, I'll tell you the truth, our internship company will send an internship team to the harbor next Monday. I discussed it with Daring and was going to visit your aunt and uncle at your house. β
"Okay then, I'll go to the boss to ask for a leave of absence, and let's have a meal together." Speaking of which, I haven't seen these two people for half a year, and Lu Yu still agrees with the party.
Bold and half-immortal are different from themselves, and their grades in school can only be described as excellent, and they found a job in a well-known local pharmaceutical company just after graduation.
In the words of both of them, they earn a lot from work, but they need to work overtime at their posts every day, and they have a lot less contact with others. This opportunity for investigation is rare, and of course the two of them will not come to Lu Yu for prostitution.
"What do you mean by that you have found a job?" On the other end of the phone, Sun Banxian, who has always had a keen sense of smell, immediately heard Lu Yu's words, and quipped, "I can join the company so soon, it can't be a leather bag company, right?" β
"Fengxue Real Estate knows, I am now a regular employee of Fengxue Real Estate." Anyway, Fengxue Real Estate belongs to Shangguan Xue's family, and she is her employee, and in disguise, she is a regular employee of Fengxue Real Estate. Although this is a bit suspicious of being a fox and a tiger, Lu Yu still doesn't mind bragging about it in front of his roommate who he hasn't seen for a long time.
"Good boy, you're a good boy. Fengxue Real Estate, a Fortune 500 large enterprise and a leader in the domestic real estate industry, how can it accept you as a college student from an ordinary college? Judging from the tone on the other end of the phone, it was obvious that he didn't believe that Lu Yu's words were true.
"Of course, I like my excellent professionalism." Speaking of this, Lu Yu couldn't help but laugh a little, "Okay, okay, I still have some things here, remember to call me when the time comes"
There are some precautions, and Lu Yu feels that he should go to Shangguan Xue again to discuss them.
...
Can't sleep, can't sleep
At night, Lu Yu lay on the bed, staring blankly at the locked door.
If you follow what Shangguan Xue said, then you will be forced to shoot the second movie next. In the face of this life-and-death test, he was not sure in his heart.
turn over
Turn over again
Until the bright moonlight shone directly on his face, Lu Yu found that he had insomnia.
After all, what should come will come after all.
