Xiao He unexpectedly gained a criminal cheat skill that allows him to learn all kinds of crime-related abilities.
—But the catch is, he has to keep “stabbing people” to stay alive.
<...After Uncle Li set up the props, Xiao He began the actual filming.
Originally, everyone was worried that Xiao He would not be comfortable in front of the camera and would not be able to keep up with the other two actors. However, Xiao He was very steady from beginning to end and even completely immersed in the role.
His portrayal of "Zhu Laosan" is ruthless and has a cold demeanor. The way he slaughters pig leg bones is as if he is slaughtering human bones. He is a complete reproduction of the murderer himself, which makes people's scalp tingle.
On the contrary, due to the influence of Xiao He's aura, Liu Zehang, who played the second brother, had several takes and was scolded by Hou Rongxuan.
Now no one dares to treat Xiao He as an ordinary person anymore.
There's reasonable suspicion that this is the real killer!
The next day, Xiao He moved to a different location to film scenes depicting school bullying.
To Xiao He's surprise, the actress who played the victim "Wu Xiaohua" was none other than Li Hanyue, the same actress who had spoken with Uncle Li the day before.
At this moment, Li Hanyue had changed into a tattered school uniform, and her face was extremely pale. She really looked like a pitiful little flower who had been bullied, making people feel sorry for her.
In the storyline, the character "Wu Xiaohua" she plays is indeed pitiful. Not only does she suffer severe bullying at school, but she is also dragged to a corner of the school by the beast Lao San and raped. In the end, she is chopped up and fed to the pigs by Lao San.
What bothered Xiao He even more was that Uncle Li seemed to treat her in a rather unusual way.
Does she have any secrets?
Filled with doubt, Xiao He took the initiative to strike up a conversation with the other party.
Li Hanyue is a very talkative and cheerful girl. After getting to know her, Xiao He learned that Li Hanyue was the same age as him, a senior in college majoring in acting at Dongxi Theatre Academy, and had been specially discovered by Director Hou to play this important role.
Xiao He did not find anything strange in her words.
That's strange...
"Xiao He, Li Hanyue, come and get ready!"
As Hou Rongxuan spoke, he gestured for the surrounding unrelated personnel to disperse and leave.
Looking at the suddenly empty space, Xiao He, who hadn't felt anything before, suddenly remembered the upcoming plot and felt a surge of pressure.
Oh no, this time I really have to play a "beast".
But he can't!
Xiao He began to panic and feel anxious.
He had a premonition that Director Hou would be furious with him today.
Sure enough, Xiao He kept making mistakes all morning.
"Hey, Xiao He, what kind of act are you putting on? You're dragging her to the woods, not to bury her body! What kind of look is that?"
"Click! Expression, expression! Where's your expression? Who are you trying to kill with that look on your face?"
"Stop! Are you staging a dismemberment scene?!"
After shouting several times, Hou Rongxuan felt his blood pressure rise, so he quickly told everyone to take a break and, while smoking, called Xiao He over.
Knowing he was in the wrong, Xiao He walked over with his head down and said, "I'm sorry, Director Hou."
Hou Rongxuan exhaled smoke with a complicated expression. After staring at Xiao He in silence for a long time, he finally sighed and said, "It's nothing. I was too impatient. I saw that your acting skills are usually quite good, so I didn't think about giving you psychological counseling in advance. It's my fault."
Although Li Hanyue was the victim, she had received professional training and had a certain psychological foundation. In addition, Xiao He was even more nervous than her, so she was not nervous at all. She smiled and comforted Xiao He: "It's okay. It's already very good that a complete novice like you can do this."
Xiao He was surprised to be comforted by a girl from the "victim" side. He blushed and felt like he wanted to disappear into the ground.
Hou Rongxuan didn't think Xiao He was being pretentious. He took another puff of his cigarette and said, "The focus of this scene is on the character of 'Third Brother.' In your current state, you don't meet the standard."
