The thick leather-clad door of the central control room was hidden, and a figure in a thin white wool slim-fit knitted skirt moved into the shadows of the porch.

Since the heartwarming thing of Kevin and Mia, Bai Xinrui seems to have left the shadow of persecution paranoia in her heart, and her trust in this world has decreased a lot. William left without even saying hello to her just now, and she had to follow her to see what was going on.

The interior was dimly lit, and William leaned down to make out the handwriting on the paper, even though he didn't quite understand the intricate three-dimensional diagrams and the various annotations on them.

Jeff explains: "You see, the plan is relatively simple, with six scenes: a butcher's shop, a train station, a Gestapo interrogation room, a train station, a tavern, and a café, all of which are built from our own two-dimensional moving films, which are quite decent enough to meet the requirements of the school theater. The other solution, which is actually an idealistic attempt of mine, is that I have added some simulated realistic design to each scene, and even every scene. In the case of the butcher's shop, there are two doors separating the living room, the bedroom and the washroom, so that even Hans shaves and Böckler has a solid foothold for the mirror to celebrate his birthday. The main characters can also step out of the gate and onto the street to interact with the extras and even the audience. A part of the stage displays the street scene, which can better set off the atmosphere of the times, and at the same time, it also increases the richness of the stage space and broadens the freedom of the actors' performances, so as to strengthen the effect of the plot. Just ......"

"Just what?" From the central control room, William's impatient questioning sounded.

"The second option will definitely overrun a lot." Jeff rubbed a thick stack of manuscript paper in his hand and told William bluntly: "As far as I know, it has already cost a lot of money to buy costumes and props, and it is impossible for the school to expand the budget for a drama indefinitely. Let's consider a compromise ......"

"No, you don't have to think much about money, just follow the second plan and do it drastically! This is the last drama I left for the drama club before graduation, and I am also a screenwriter, director and star, so I must ensure a high level of presentation! Leave no regrets! William stretched out his arm and patted Jeff on the shoulder as if to cheer him up.

Jeff was worried that William was impulsive and would regret it when he calmed down afterwards, so he persuaded: "Oh, William, you have to understand that my design plan is nothing more than staying up late for two more weeks to catch up with the work, and if we don't have enough funds to implement this plan, it is better to cut it down and simplify it." ”

William laughed when he heard this, and said, "How can I let you do useless work?" Didn't you see that I went to great lengths to invite Mrs. Bai to be our artistic director? As long as her name appears on the poster, how can we only use the event set up? Is this small expense still a problem for her? ”

A spotlight on the top of the console in the central control room shone on William's face, reflecting half of his face with brilliance, but the other half of his face was heavily shadowed, and his expression became a little exaggerated and distorted by laughter, looking a little terrifying.

Jeff looked at William's face silently, as if he was still digesting what he had just said.

"So, my principle is that the stage design and lighting of this show must be perfect, no matter the cost!"

William's quick statement was to reassure Jeff that he couldn't allow his stage designer ideas to sway from side to side.

Hearing this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Bai Xinrui's mouth in the shadows.

It seems that William is far from being as noble as she thought before, she used to think that William was good everywhere, but he was a little too bookish, and today, she finally saw his sobriety, ambition and kingly demeanor.

Bai Xinrui was secretly happy in her heart, feeling that she had a good vision and liked the right people. William's ambition coupled with his IQ and means are the necessary conditions for success, and only such a person is a good person who matches him equally.

The white figure came and went, and disappeared around the corner of the stairs without noticing.

"How soon can I complete the overall design?" Is a week okay? I need to be fast, you know, the nights are long and the dreams are many. William's red hair, raised like a torch, pressed towards Jeff, causing him to feel an insatiable desire.

Jeff's gaze pulled away from the heavy oppression, drifted to the large glass window opposite the center console, and looked down condescendingly, most of the lights in the black box were extinguished, and only a small piece of light remained on the stage.

Just now, before the props for the rehearsal of the Gestapo interrogation room could be moved, in the center of the stage, a small, but familiar figure sat in a leather chair, touched the cover of the vellum paper dossier on the table, and picked up the old-fashioned telephone receiver and put it to his ear to try, unwilling to leave this small stage for a long time......

Looking at the little figure, Jeff felt that there was still a little hope left in this desperate world, and he turned to look at William and said, "Okay, I'll try to give you the design sketch before the meeting next week." ”

Before Dr. Martin walked out of the classroom with a stack of handouts, the students closest to the door were already rushing out of the classroom, today is Friday, this class is the last one, even if there is a lot of homework, essays and book lists to follow, it is also desirable to start the free weekend mode early.

Only Chenchen was still slowly packing up his things in his seat, everything was ready, he habitually threw the big backpack full of book clips behind him, and carried it on his right shoulder, thinking that he could go to the squash court to play for a while after going back to the dormitory to change his clothes, there was no training there today.

Suddenly, he heard someone behind him call him: "Charlie, you can play werewolf killing." ”

As soon as Chenchen turned around, he saw a female version of Mr. Bean's face, and at this moment, he was grinning at himself.

"Well, I've played it, but I'm not particularly good at it." Chenchen didn't know why Amanda asked himself such a sentence without a head.

Amanda held a list in her hand, her facial features were mixed together as if there was some kind of fierce struggle going on inside, and she hesitated for a moment before saying, "There's a mystery party, just tomorrow afternoon, we're going to play Werewolf Kill together, now...... Need for a temporary additional ......"

Chen Chen originally wanted to excuse himself that he didn't have time to refuse, but before he could speak, Amanda couldn't wait to intercept his words, and said to herself: "A rare opportunity, this time the personnel are reviewed by Stella one by one, and only those who are invited are eligible to participate." Boss Quentin had something to do temporarily, and a vacated spot, Stella thought of you, she said, although you are not very likeable, but your IQ is okay, and you can't talk nonsense. ”

Chenchen couldn't laugh or cry at Bai Xinrui's evaluation of himself.

In addition to the official parties and events organized by the school, most of the time, Chenchen still did not leave the small circle of Chinese classmates. In terms of integrating with American classmates, Chenchen asked himself if he was not good enough, and he was even more unattainable than Bai Xinrui. This eighth-grade girl is undoubtedly the leading figure in the school's social scene, with countless friends inside and outside the school, and she eats both blue and white.

Chenchen calculated the time of the weekend, there were no exams next week, only a few subjects of homework to be completed, and two small papers were approaching the deadline, but, with his efficiency, these were all right.

Since it's a limited number of people, it's a rare opportunity, so why not try it out?

In line with the principle of not going in vain, Chenchen promised: "Okay, no problem, where is it?" ”

"School Gymnasium ......"

"Gymnasium?" Chenchen frowned, although the gymnasium has a lot of space, it is not a wise place to gather, there are not even chairs on the field, it is estimated that he has to sit on the ground.

Amanda saw the hesitant look on Chenchen's face, smiled secretly, and after making sure that no one was passing by, she lowered her voice and pretended to be mysterious: "I haven't finished speaking!" Gymnasium basement vault. ”

Underground vaults? The basement floor of the gymnasium is the rugby training center, and the second floor is the ice hockey rink.

However, it seems that someone has mentioned before that there is a secret passage to the underground in the gymnasium, which may lead to another world or something, how can a materialist like Chenchen believe this kind of deceitful child's words?

Who said that?

Chenchen's mind was flying, and he was thinking desperately, but he didn't pay attention to the cold on the back of his hand, and the coldness spread from the back of his hand to his heart, making him shiver all over.

Looking closely, Amanda had a girly smile on her face, and she was unhurriedly putting away an obsidian-like ghost thing, which was the feeling of pressing on the back of her hand.

"It's the ticket. The ...... of biometrics When Amanda said this, a large, charming mouth like Julia Roberts almost grinned at the back of her head.

The words "biometrics" immediately aroused Chenchen's interest, and he raised the back of his hand to his eyes to take a closer look, except for a few hairs that were not very obvious, there was nothing.

What kind of biometrics, Amanda is afraid that she has paranoia! He almost believed it, and when he thought about it, he knew that it was a miracle that such a lofty technical term could pop out of her mouth.

Amanda continued thoughtfully: "I need to repeat it again, mainly because I'm afraid you won't remember. Our party is very private! Keep it absolutely secret from the outside world! However, our guests will enjoy absolutely luxurious VIP treatments. In this case, the admission ticket is particularly important to avoid mixing with the crowd and so on......"

Chenchen listened to Amanda's eyebrows fluttering and spoke, it was like sitting in the first row, watching a 3D movie up close, the visual effects and sound effects were absolutely world-class, and it also came with BGM.
