Chapter 1482: 1490 [Assassination of Okiya Subaru]
Then the director turned around and ordered: "Shoot other shots first, put Nanjo's shot aside until the clothes arrive - luckily it's a modern film, and there's no brand sponsorship, so any clothes can be used. Otherwise, if you change to something else, it will be a big trouble."
In the room, Nanjo Hayato frowned: No matter how you listen to the director's words, it sounds like he is complaining that he has offended someone.
But the director didn't say it explicitly, and his popularity has declined significantly now, so it is indeed not easy for him to join the crew, so it is not easy to get angry.
So in the end, Nanjo Hayato could only vent his anger elsewhere: "Where is that Yoshino? She's always an eyesore, but when I need her to run errands to buy costumes, she's nowhere to be seen!"
At the same time, he glanced at Okiya Subaru, whose face was full of resistance, and said pickily: "Does this guy know how to choose clothes? Don't buy me a set of cheap goods."
Okiya Subaru's eyes twitched: "..." I haven't even disliked you yet, you actually...
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from beside Nanjo Hayato.
He was heard asking where his assistant had been, and he gently explained, "Your wife wanted to go shopping for clothes, so she asked Miss Yoshino to go with her to help her choose."
Nanjo Hayato was even angrier: "You two are so careless. Is my business not as important as theirs?!"
After he finished speaking, he turned around and was surprised to find that the person who had just explained to him was Yoko Kinoshita.
Nanjo Hayato: "..."
Although I look down on young female artists like this, it is undeniable that Kinoshita Yoko is much more popular than him now. The promotion of this drama in the later stage will rely a lot on her.
Thinking of this, Nanjo Hayato had to restrain himself a little. He forced himself to calm down and said, "So that's how it is. Haha, it's normal for women to like shopping, so let them have fun, that person——"
He turned to look at Okiya Subaru: "Go buy me a few sets of clothes. I'll have the costume designer send you the sizes and samples later. Don't buy the wrong ones!"
Okiya Subaru: "..."
...Forget it, think on the bright side, when buying clothes, I can stay away from the crew.
Maybe by the time the purchase is completed, the matter here will be over, and he can take the opportunity to avoid a case that may easily attract Uzo's attention.
Of course, the best case scenario is that there is no ouzo at all in the UK…
While thinking about this, Okiya Subaru went out to find a clothing street.
…
When we were almost there, the clothing list had already been sent to us.
Subaru Okiya clicked on the list on the screen and slowly flipped through it. He couldn't help but mutter as he read, "...His popularity is declining, but he's still so extravagant when it comes to buying things. This guy doesn't have any illegal income, does he?"
But all this has nothing to do with low-key workers.
Subaru Okiya suppressed his curiosity and followed the brand name, communicating with the costume designer while selecting.
After a long time, I finally decided on one and bought it.
Then go to the second one.
While walking on the street, he was identifying the clothing stores around him, and at the same time he couldn't help but observe all the people around him who were wearing black clothes with a guilty conscience.
As he was watching, he caught a glimpse of a shadow on the ground out of the corner of his eye and was suddenly startled.
——Someone took advantage of the noisy noise on the pedestrian street to cover himself and came up behind him quietly, stabbing him in the back!
“?!!”
A hint of fear appeared in Okiya Subaru's eyes.
At the same time, he suddenly moved sideways. The man behind him didn't expect him to dodge, and his sword stabbed into the air, but was grabbed by Okiya Subaru's wrist.
Subaru Okiya used the attacker's forward momentum to pull him with all his strength. As the attacker lost his balance and fell forward, he raised his elbow and hit the attacker's back hard, while at the same time he raised his knee and hit him hard.
There was a dull thud as they were attacked from both front and back.
The attacker instantly lost the ability to move due to the severe pain and fell to the ground with a thud. He twisted and curled up like a bug that was kicked in the abdomen.
Subaru Okiya dodged the fatal thrust and instinctively reached for his gun. When his hand reached his ribs, he suddenly remembered that he didn't have a gun at all - guns couldn't pass security checks.
…But that doesn’t matter anymore.
——Looking carefully at the ground, Subaru Okiya was stunned.
The weapon that the "assailant" was holding and stabbing at him was not a "lethal dagger with a blood groove carved in it, which would cut off the throat in one blow", but...
A soft ice cream.
And it must be just a pure ice cream, not a dagger disguised as ice cream or something - because just now, when Okiya Subaru pulled it hard, several balls of ice cream broke away from the cone and splattered on his thighs.
There are no weapons in the dessert.
The egg cone below is just a simple egg cone. It breaks into pieces when it touches the ground, making a crisp sound.
“……”It seems like this was just a misunderstanding.
Okiya Subaru breathed a sigh of relief.
Then I felt something was wrong.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at the people coming and going around him, occasionally exclaiming in surprise, and cold sweat silently flowed down his back - since the other party was not the first to commit the crime, wouldn't it be him, Subaru Okiya, who overreacted and beat people up in the street?
Subaru Okiya: "..." Although the person who was beaten is temporarily unable to move and cannot call the police, if he has a companion, that companion may immediately call the police to come over, arrest the attacker and take him to the police station, and then on the way, a bullet will be fired to silence him...
I was thinking with a cold heart.
At this moment, a man suddenly rushed over.
Then, under the desperate gaze of Subaru Okiya, he pulled the person on the ground up, carried him steadily, turned around and ran, disappearing into the crowd in the blink of an eye.
Okiya Subaru: “…Hmm?”
...What's going on.
Just now he was still wondering whether the attacker had been bewitched by Uzo and wanted to lure him into the police station by sacrificing himself.
But now it seems that this is not the case, it was just a simple misunderstanding.
Okiya Subaru: "..." This is so scary... Come to think of it, why did that guy stab him with ice cream? Street bullying?
Although I have a lot of questions in my mind, now doesn't seem to be the time to think about these.
Subaru Okiya took one last look at the group of people who had escaped, and with lingering fear he picked up the shopping bag that he had just thrown aside, and hurriedly left to the other side, quickly fleeing the scene.
…
After walking for a while, Subaru Okiya gradually came out of the aftermath of the shock of "I've been tricked!" and had time to think about other things.
He lowered his head and took a look at his pants that were covered with ice cream. He was silent for a moment: "..."
As a graduate student who is very particular about life, Okiya Subaru is actually quite clean: he usually insists on going to the balcony to hang clothes and quilts, even at the risk of being spotted by Usa. Now the ice cream is sticky on his pants, which is simply unbearable.
Subaru Okiya: “…” And if you think about it carefully, walking on the clean street wearing such a dirty pair of pants will only increase your presence… In order to avoid entering the possible “Usa’s field of vision”, you should change them as soon as possible.
