"right."
Zhuo Jianhua stood with his hands behind his back, said nothing more, and gestured for Xiao He to follow him out.
"Go quickly." Liu Zehang winked at Xiao He. "It must be something good."
Xiao He could only keep up with Zhuo Jianhua's pace.
Once they reached another empty lounge, Zhuo Jianhua finally spoke: "An old friend of mine has a son who wrote a script, and there's a role that would be perfect for you. I don't know if you'd be interested."
Xiao He really didn't expect that someone would offer him a pillow when he was sleepy, and that this person was Zhuo Jianhua, a senior who had hardly spoken to him and with whom he had only a casual relationship!
This was both surprising and delightful.
"Um...can I ask what genre it is? And what kind of character is he?" Xiao He didn't answer immediately and continued to ask.
Seeing that Xiao He wasn't immediately moved, Zhuo Jianhua felt even more admiration for him.
Although he hadn't spoken much with this junior, he had been keeping a close eye on him. The junior's acting skills weren't particularly outstanding, but they were very gifted, especially his knife skills, which always amazed Zhuo Jianhua.
So when Zhuo Jianhua saw the script handed to him by his friend's son, he immediately thought of Xiao He.
"It's a martial arts script. The character is a cook who is skilled with a boning knife. He's not the lead, but his role is quite important. I think you'll definitely be interested."
Xiao He's eyes lit up.
As expected of a senior, he captured his heart immediately!
"Does the character... commit murder?" Xiao He asked after a moment's thought.
Since it's set in a martial arts world, it must be filled with bloodshed and chaos.
Zhuo Jianhua: ?
What a strange question...
"kill."
"Okay, I'll take it!"
Xiao He readily agreed.
If they've asked to this extent, it would be foolish not to answer.
So before filming wrapped on "Killing Life", Xiao He received a script called "The Thief Catcher".

"Take your things and leave." Boss Zhu said, puffing on his cigarette while staring at his underlings. "Those cops are definitely watching us!"
Zhu Laosan violently chopped the meat on the cutting board, his face contorted and twitching, both angry at the police's relentless pursuit and terrified of the impending death: "I'm not leaving! They have no evidence at all, what are we afraid of!"
"Pah, idiots!" Boss Zhu spat. "Our monopoly business has grown too big. Sooner or later, someone will be envious. Those bastards should all be chopped up and fed to the pigs!"
"Our Zhu family line must never be broken." Zhu Lao Er spoke up at this moment. "You go up the mountain right now. The mountain godfather will take you there. You'll definitely know it better than those guys. Once you're in the mountain, just stay hidden and don't come back."
"Then let's go together."
Zhu Laoda slapped Zhu Laosan across the face: "Damn it, I told you to get lost! If I weren't a prime suspect, do you think I wouldn't want to run away? All that studying has gone to waste!"
Zhu Laosan was stunned by the slap, but he also came to his senses and decisively packed his things into his schoolbag.
The next day at dawn, his figure completely disappeared on his way to school.
When the police arrived at the slaughterhouse to arrest the three Zhu brothers, they only found the eldest and the second eldest.
Nobody knows where the third brother went.
And this disappearance...
That's been more than twenty years.
