Chapter 340: Arrival

“OK! Card!!!! ”

The well-placed filming location resounded with Drew's shouting cards.

He looked at the three screens in front of him, looking at the various data displayed on them, and a hint of satisfaction flashed on his face.

Coming out to do it by himself is really the best choice, and it is not a shame that he spent so much money to get it and toss.

Although it doesn't cost money to send people under the fence, I don't know why he is always banned for no reason, which also makes him very popular.

Thinking about it, Drew got up from his seat and walked towards the center of the filming set.

"Well done, guys!"

As the person in charge and behind the scenes, Drew clapped his hands and cheered at Max, including the actors who had been invited.

After the end, the invited actors also began to return to normal, and the staff waiting next to them also walked into the camera and began to pack up or take water and distribute it to them.

"Hey!"

Drew exclaimed as he looked at the fifth-rate actor who had gotten up from his bed and played the possessed man named Brahim Kahn, who couldn't find a job or acting opportunities.

"Hey! Who will award Rahim an Oscar! ”

As soon as these words came out, they undoubtedly hit the heart of this fifth-rate actor.

Brahim let the staff next to him wipe him, and said with a smile in the face of this big benefactor.

"If I win the award, the first thing I'll want to thank is you, Drew, for the inspiration you gave me."

It was a very nice thing to say, and Drew laughed, walked over and shook hands with the sensible actor.

"Thank you! Thank you! ”

In addition to shaking hands with Brahim, Drew also ran over to shake hands with several women who played the role of family members and set off the atmosphere very well, holding a bowl of water, and no one wanted these people to go out and talk about it, saying that their live broadcast was fake.

"If you want to take a photo or take a souvenir, you can't upload it anywhere."

"Okay! We're definitely not going to talk nonsense, boss. ”

Hearing the assurance, Drew nodded in satisfaction and smiled.

"Thank you! Thank you! ”

With that, Drew continued to run to his friend and partner, and he stood behind the scenes, and the other side of Max on the platform complimented.

"The acting is wonderful, man!"

Max glanced at Drew, smiled and didn't speak, just stared.

"Huh?" Drew felt a little strange and felt that the way Max looked at him made him a little hairy.

"What's wrong? Max, won't you get tired? Come on man, you're a teddy perpetual motion machine that doesn't get tired! ”

As he spoke, Drew reached out and habitually patted Max on the shoulder.

This time, it made Max divert his gaze.

"I'm fine, Drew, and I'd like to know what's next for you."

Drew was a little surprised, after all, in the past, this guy in front of him would not ask about show-related topics, after thinking about it, Drew shrugged: "I want to expand our show." ”

"What expansion?" Max picked up a bottle of mineral water from the high table in front of him and handed it to Drew.

"Catch ghosts! Psychic! Drew took it, didn't drink, and said confidently.

"And a visit to a haunted house! With such a rich program list, it will definitely attract a lot of fans and passers-by, and it can also keep the show interesting, so that old viewers will not get tired of watching it, and they will continue to watch it all the time, even if someone knows that it is fake, they will continue to watch it non-stop. ”

However, what Drew said there, he didn't see Max's eyes, and he didn't know which words touched which heartstring, but Max frowned and said seriously.

"Drew, we've discussed, the priest doesn't psychic, and he doesn't visit haunted houses, which is a bad job for them, and they will be kicked out of the church!"

Drew paused for a moment, wondering why Max was so particular about this.

In his opinion, a priest is just an ordinary profession, and there are no demons and devils in this world, and there is no God either.

"I know, but Max, this is the first step to expanding our business, otherwise you will never become a big Internet celebrity with five million followers, do you think more than one million followers are enough now?"

Drew said bitterly.

"No, more than a million fans are just a small Internet celebrity at best, and they are all over the place."

However, Max didn't bother to listen to it, just shook his head and threw down a sentence I don't want to do, and then left the place, letting Drew's face gradually turn blue.

"Damn it!"

Drew looked at the back of Max leaving, and felt a little headache for a while, and couldn't help but curse secretly.

At the same time.

New York Cathedral.

Fr. Augsig led his assistants, who were actually studying, into the room where Bishop Romulo was located, led by a cathedral monk.

It was already half past ten o'clock, and Bishop Romulo had already taken off his daily bishop's robe and changed into a simple pajamas.

After reading what happened today, plus some of the information he had found.

"Yes, I'm happy with the progress." Bishop Romulo glanced at Father Augsgo and said calmly.

In the information, group after group of ghouls were eliminated, and it was only a matter of one night to clean up.

During the day, several more related altars and circles were found, and then destroyed.

Then a number of suspicious figures were traced.

Receiving Bishop Romulo's compliment, Father Augsig appeared calm, he looked at the information that the bishop had seen the suspect, and spoke.

"Bishop Romulo, these suspects have been roughly reduced to eighteen, and they seem to have no fixed residence, moving everywhere, and each transfer leaves behind these altars and circles."

Father Augsig said, in an affirmative tone.

"At present, it is certain that these altars and magic circles do have the effect of summoning, and at the same time, these are a little sloppy and familiar with the exquisite patterns of the magic circle, which makes me think that some of these eighteen people have made a deal with the devil, as for who exactly is and what the transaction is, we have not yet found out."

"The Devil's Deal?"

Hearing this, Bishop Romulo's gaze rested on the dozen or so photographs, above which were the occupants of the house with the altar, and below were their whereabouts.

The important thing is that the picture of Drew and Max turned out to be among them.

Bishop Romulo shook his head, threw the papers on the table in front of him, and said calmly with a calm taste.

"I don't care who is involved in what or which devil I have made a deal with, I just need you to find the person who made the deal and find out the truth."

What strange things in this world, an ordinary person making a deal with the devil, for Bishop Romulo, is just an ordinary thing, he has lived for so long and has not died, he is about to retire, and he has never seen anything strange.

Even if a devil appeared in front of him, Bishop Romulo's heart would not fluctuate much.

The so-called old man is refined, which refers to the life experience in his life.

"Yes!"

Fr. Augsg and Fr. Archibald nodded respectfully.

"With official help, the traces of these eighteen suspects can be found soon, as long as they are still living in the human social world, they will inevitably use cards, money and other things, the only trouble is that they need to be all confirmed, screened one by one, and the real suspects are locked."

After hearing this, Bishop Romulo nodded, looked at the priest in front of him, and waved his hand.

"You can do it yourself, and if there is something you can't solve, report it to me."

The two priests glanced at each other, and they could hear the deep meaning contained in this sentence, and there was a demon that these priests could not solve appeared, and then called the bishop above.

As the saying goes, the sky is falling, and there is a tall man on top, so although the high-ranking bishop usually doesn't do anything, the presence of a bishop can really be a lot more reassuring.

"Yes, Bishop!"

The two priests, Fr. Augsig and Fr. Archibald, quickly packed up all their documents and left.

They will use stupid methods, through the cooperation of the official and the church, to divide the power into eighteen parts to track down.

As for the time, it is up to who is fast and who is slow, after all, the free United States is also very large, and it is impossible to accurately confirm the authenticity of these suspects at the same time in the vast sea of people.

And just like that, time passed bit by bit.

Come to the evening of the second day.

When the relevant reports that have locked up the real suspect are ready to come to Father Augsig.

A filming location in Los Angeles has already begun to be deployed.

Drew, who didn't know that he had been locked as a suspect by both parties, was directing at the scene.

"Luciano, the window must burst at the time I said it, you know?"

Drew said seriously: "It's important, the audience, the fans, the passers-by that I need to watch, are all taken aback. ”

Luciano nodded and said confidently: "Boss, don't worry, I had an accident?" ”

Hearing this, Drew looked at the window and smiled, and continued to scan the field, not seeing the person he was looking for, "Of course I believe you, Luciano, by the way, and the radio?" Iman: Where did he go? ”

Luciano hesitated a little, not knowing whether to say or not, and finally said, "He seems to have gone out to buy something." ”

But Drew saw it directly, and his face was a little gloomy: "He ran to suck it again, right?" Damn, go get him back, I don't want to see a high-sucking junkie! ”

Speaking of this, Drew looked at a young woman sitting in front of various devices, playing with her mobile phone, and the corners of her mouth twitched.

Originally, it was impossible for him to hire this kind of person to work, after all, once it was exposed and affected the atmosphere of the live broadcast, it would be an inadmissible mistake.

But he couldn't bear that Iman was his girlfriend's younger brother.

"You go get Iman back! Tell him that if he sucks again, he will get out of me immediately, and I won't give him the money in front! ”

Luciano heard that his boss was not joking, nodded quickly, and left to find Iman.

Looking at the back of Luciano leaving, Drew sighed, only to feel that there were more and more things that had been giving him headaches recently.

Even Max, an old friend, has become a little wrong, and his originally prodigal personality has become different.

"Did something happen that I didn't know about?"

Thinking of Max, Drew found a staff member who was deployed at the site.

"Go, call Max to me, it's time to start shooting!"

The staff nodded, but before he could look for it, Max and Iman, who had messy hair and a blank face, and his blank eyes, including the confused Luciano, walked in through the main entrance.

Seeing this, Drew couldn't help but exhale lightly.

"Hey! Dude, here's your manuscript. Drew handed a line to Max.

Then he looked at Iman, whose eyes were blank and bloodless, and Drew frowned.

"Iman! You'd better wash your face first? Otherwise, I won't let you do anything. ”

Iman had a rough face, his forehead was already covered with cold sweat, he nodded numbly, and then headed in the direction of the bathroom.

Drew wanted to ask something, but Max had already taken the manuscript and left on his own.

Subconsciously looked at Luciano, wanting to get an explanation, but Drew only got Luciano shrugging his shoulders and saying that he would run into the two of them as soon as he went out.

"Forget it, you go get busy, check the props again."

Drew waved his hand, looked at Luciano, who nodded and left, shook his head and walked in the direction of his girlfriend.

Anything goes, as long as it doesn't interfere with the live stream.

Until he was ready to start the broadcast at the agreed time, something happened that he didn't expect.

The hired actor has been slow to show up.

And there are only seven minutes left.

This made Drew feel a surge of anger in his heart, and secretly cursed FK, but looking at the timetable that was counting down above, he couldn't do anything at all.

"FK, if you don't come again, you can only cancel this live broadcast."

Drew looked at all the equipment in place on the field, including Max and the others, and although Iman didn't show up, there were many more people who could replace him.

It's the actor, it's a little difficult for him, the actor is especially important, if the acting is too exaggerated and exaggerated, it will completely immerse the audience, and this live broadcast is tantamount to failure, so he has been hiring actors who have really learned.

The girlfriend next to her, Lenny, suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong? Look at your restless look. ”

"The actor didn't come," Drew said helplessly, clasping his hands to his chest.

"It looks like this live broadcast is going to be canceled."

Today is really full of problems, and it gives him a headache.

"Actors?" Ryannie raised an eyebrow.

"Playing the possessed?"

"Yes." Drew said as he looked at the people and the venue who were all waiting, and then looked at the two minutes left.

"Not everyone can put on that kind of hysterical look."

At this moment, his girlfriend's words made him react like a sudden realization.

"Actors? Isn't this ready-made? Ryannie pointed at herself and smiled.

"You know, I once participated in a drama club!"

Drew looked at his girlfriend with a look of emotion on his face, then clapped his palms and hugged them.

"Great, baby, you may be a blessing from my last life."

Ryan just said indifferently: "You'd better sell more merch, I've decided to change our honeymoon venue to a better place." ”

"You pick, you pick!" Drew excitedly pulled his girlfriend out of the equipment area and announced to the people waiting there.

"The actor is here! Served by my darling, Ryannie! ”

Everyone paused for a moment, then cheered, only a hint of banter flashed in Max's eyes, who was wearing a fake robe.

He remembered the bathroom, the man he sacrificed to the devil as a sin with sucking.

"Sister and brother, what a happy ending."

He looked at Ryan Ni, who was a little shy and embarrassed in Drew's arms, and muttered to himself.

At this time, a special plane from the Vatican had just arrived at JFK......
