Chapter 140 Modern Entertainment Circle (Part 2)



Memory erasure?

"This kind of crooked method is too unfair." Li Yuebai frowned.

"Yes, this is a very useful cheat code." the system replied.

"He can easily make others forget important information...I'm afraid Su X will soon rule the world." Li Yuebai said angrily.

"Not really. Host, don't worry too much about this world. Su X's golden finger has its limits. It won't allow him to do whatever he wants. At most, it can make you forget a script." The system said comfortingly.

In this case, it is no wonder that Shen Po was furious and criticized Murong Liang's script as worthless. Shen Po was not a person who would abandon normal aesthetics for personal grudges. His anger was more because of Murong Liang's failure to meet standards.

As the protagonist, Su X came prepared with a mission, and the script he prepared was indeed of a certain standard. As long as he PKed Murong Liang, the most terrifying opponent, he would be able to gain the favor of Shen Po, and he could also take the opportunity to help Shen Po vent his anger, which would make the readers feel very relieved. This plot setting is simply a classic.

"Well, even if the other party has a golden finger, so what?" Li Yuebai sneered, "As long as we know in advance, we can deal with it."

Murong Liang has always prided himself on his quick thinking and excellent memory, and never prepared paper or electronic materials, thus avoiding the risk of his scripts being stolen by hackers or thieves. This characteristic is well-known in the industry, and it is for this reason that Su X took advantage of it.

"As long as I write the script in detail and print it on paper before the meeting begins, no matter how powerful the memory erasure technique is, it will not be able to change the handwriting on the paper." Li Yuebai said: "After the meeting begins, you don't need to say anything, just hand the paper materials to Shen Po."

"It's possible." The system said, "But I'm afraid time is a bit tight."

The meeting with Shen Po is in an hour, and I don’t know if this hour is enough.

"So fast?" Li Yuebai frowned.

"Yes, the driver is waiting for you at the hotel entrance." The system said guiltily: "I'm sorry, host, this mission is too urgent and I can't buy you some buffer time."

"It's okay." Li Yuebai said.

He quickly thought of several other ways to deal with the situation, then stood up, changed into formal clothes, grabbed a pen and a hard cover notebook, and went out.

When he arrived at Shen Po's company, Li Yuebai had already written down the general content of the script on paper as quickly as possible. Although it was very rough and sloppy, it was reassuring enough.

Li Yuebai walked through the hall and went straight to the reception room.

There was a young staff member waiting at the door of the reception room. When he saw Li Yuebai, he immediately bowed politely and opened the door for him.

There were already a few people sitting in the room: Su X, Shen Po's agent, several staff members, and of course... Shen Po himself.

The moment he saw Shen Po, Li Yuebai felt a very strange feeling in his heart.

To be precise, he didn't see Shen Po's appearance clearly at all - Shen Po was not exposed to anyone's sight, but was sitting behind a thin black curtain at the back of the reception room. Only a little outline of his body could be seen. He was probably a little tired after just finishing his trip, so he sat on a chair with a backrest, seemingly taking a rest, and had no reaction to Li Yuebai's arrival.

"Mr. Murong, we've finally got you here." Shen Po's agent came forward and greeted Li Yuebai warmly, as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years. This was the agent's personality. He was used to playing both sides and being humble, which formed a sharp contrast with Shen Po's arrogance.

"Hello, Mr. Murong..." Su X also stood up and bowed timidly.

Li Yuebai sat down at the table and chatted with the agent while taking a look at Su X - a typical newbie, very pure and gentle, without any threat.

However, I'm afraid this person has already started to plan what to do with me.

"Host, be careful, don't let Su X touch you." The system reminded nervously.

Su X's memory erasure technique relies on skin contact to work.

Just as he finished speaking, Su X brought over a cup of tea and carefully placed it in Li Yuebai's hands.

"Thank you." Li Yuebai calmly pointed at the table and said, "Just put it here."

What he said was very accurate. Su X couldn't find an opportunity to hand it over in person, so he had to put it on the table honestly.

"Su X is not someone who will let you go so easily. Host, please pay more attention to his movements and be ready to dodge at any time," said the system.

Li Yuebai thought it was a bit absurd, but he had to pay attention.

After a while, Su X walked past Li Yuebai again on the pretext of something.

It was obvious that he was planning to pretend to fall accidentally, then support Murong Liang and take the opportunity to touch Murong Liang's hand.

Li Yuebai tensed his body, ready to stand up and avoid it at any time.

However, at this moment, he heard Shen Po behind the curtain whisper, "Is it time?"

This voice...why does it sound so familiar?

Li Yuebai's heart began to pound uncontrollably, as if he had remembered something very important.

"It's time." The agent replied immediately.

The curtain was drawn open with a swish, and Shen Po, who was sitting upright, appeared in everyone's sight.

He may have rested enough, and now he sits upright, with his hands on the table in front of him, forming an inverted V shape, with his fingers on his chin. His face looks even more handsome than on the screen, with deep features and a calm expression, and...

Li Yuebai tried his best to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.

For a moment, he almost called out Ye Qing's name.

The Shen Po in front of him didn't look very similar to Ye Qing, but that feeling... That feeling... was too scary. In one second, he was almost certain that this was Ye Qing, and in the next second, he couldn't find any similarities at all.

Is it...

During this brief moment of daze, a soft call came into my ears.

Su X accidentally staggered and luckily he grabbed the table in time and did not fall.

Li Yuebai only felt that his hand was touched by something soft - it was Su X's hand.

Su X took the opportunity to hold the table and touched Murong Liang's hand.

"Host——!" the system exclaimed, "I told you to be careful!"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Murong." Su X acted very frightened and apologized quickly.

Li Yuebai rubbed his temples, trying to recall the script in his mind - sure enough, it was already a mess. The complete structure and sentences that he remembered clearly in his mind had now turned into some meaningless fragments.

"It's okay." Li Yuebai came back to his senses and waved his hands.

"Yes." Su X was forgiven and hurried back to his seat. He lowered his head with a barely perceptible smile on his face.

"Since the time has come, please ask Mr. Murong to tell us about your company's latest script." The agent nodded politely to Li Yuebai.

Li Yuebai was silent for a second.

"Fortunately, host, you have already written down the general content of the script." said the system.

Li Yuebai casually opened the hard cover notebook - the handwriting on it was a little difficult to understand.

"So Mr. Murong has prepared written materials this time?" The agent was surprised. People in the industry knew that Murong Liang always spoke without a script, but this time he actually brought materials with him, which showed how much he valued Shen Po.

Li Yuebai smiled and picked up his notebook.

"Calm down, host, just calm down..." The system cheered in a low voice.

"..." Li Yuebai didn't say anything, but made a decision secretly in his heart.

He did not rush to speak, but handed the notes directly to the agent.

"I attach great importance to this possible cooperation, and the script has been prepared long ago." Li Yuebai said, "But today, I want to tell Mr. Shen another story."

"Another? What another?" The system was caught off guard by this sudden turn: "Where is the other story?"

"It's like this, system, I can't bear it anymore." Li Yuebai said, "I can't bear it for another minute."

"Shen Po." Li Yue asked bluntly, "Do you believe that there are vampires in the world?"

"..." Shen Po's expression changed, and after a moment he replied: "No."

Li Yuebai asked Ye Qing this question at the beginning of the second time.

At that time, Ye Qing just remained silent with a paralyzed face, which was completely different from Shen Po's current reaction.

But even if the reactions are different, it doesn't mean anything. The time travelers will have different appearances and personalities in different worlds. The only thing that remains unchanged is... that little bit of memory.

"It's just a joke, don't mind it." Li Yuebai calmed down, came to his senses, and secretly checked his appearance. Fortunately, Murong Liang usually behaved more flamboyantly, and suddenly asking a few strange questions like this was part of his personality and would not arouse other people's suspicion.

"Director Murong's opening method is always so unique and impressive." The agent said with a smile.

Li Yuebai took a deep breath silently.

During the second time travel, all the stories about the vampire hunter that he had personally experienced came flooding back to him at once, pressing against his throat, as if they were trying to jump out.

He spoke slowly and told the story in full.

This story is bizarre and confusing, interspersed with many meaningless pieces that are irrelevant to the main plot and many impromptu plots. It cannot be called a complete work, let alone a complete script. However, when Li Yuebai told the story, he borrowed the original owner's rich experience in film production and reprocessed the story, establishing a solid structure that echoes the beginning and the end, highlighting the friendship between the two protagonists. Because it was a personal experience, it was particularly moving.

After finishing speaking, Li Yuebai glanced at the clock on the wall and was surprised to realize that he had been talking for a whole hour.

There was silence in the reception room.

After a long time, someone finally spoke.

"Mr. Murong, the script you just described is indeed unique." The agent said: "However..."

However, it is still too messy and weird to be a normal script.

"Next, let's turn to Su X..." The agent turned his gaze to Su X, obviously still wanting to hear his script.

Su X raised his eyes and was about to speak, but was interrupted by a voice.

It was Shen Po. He said in a deep voice, "That's enough."

"Enough?" The agent was slightly surprised: "It's not over yet..."

"That's enough." Shen Po nodded: "You all go out, Murong Liang can stay."

"..."Su X's face immediately turned pale. The agent and several other staff members didn't understand what was going on, but they nodded and took Su X out.

There were only two people left in the reception room, and Li Yuebai could almost hear the sound of his own heartbeat.

At the end of the second time travel, Ye Qing said that he would only keep a tiny bit of memory and might forget the whole story. In this case, even if he retells the whole story, it may not be useful, Shen Po may not be able to remember it... And in the end, what can he rely on to be sure that Shen Po is Ye Qing? There is absolutely no evidence...

Shen Po stood up and walked towards Li Yuebai step by step.

"Murong Liang, what on earth are you doing?" Shen Po leaned down and stared at Li Yuebai, his eyes full of confusion.

After listening to Murong Liang's story, he felt that the story was strange yet inexplicably familiar, but he couldn't tell what was familiar about it...he couldn't remember it at all.

Do you really not remember anything at all?

Li Yuebai felt a huge disappointment in his heart.

Come to think of it, at the end of the second time travel, Ye Qing said that as a time traveler, when he traveled through each world, he would lose most of the memories of the previous world, leaving only a little.

So, it's time to exchange secret codes again.

Maybe Shen Po can remember the code, or maybe he doesn't remember it at all.

When telling the story just now, Li Yuebai did not say the two words "joker" and "vila".

Until now, he had no hope for this code. In the third time, he clearly suspected that Yu Tianji was Ye Qing, but this code didn't match up anyway...

No matter what, we can't give up this opportunity to try.

Li Yuebai picked up a piece of white paper from the table, wrote the words "joker &vila" on it, and handed it to Shen Po.

Shen Po took it doubtfully, looking at Li Yuebai warily while glancing at the paper casually.

Sure enough, they still don't match? Li Yuebai didn't dare to look at Shen Po's expression and simply closed his eyes.

There was silence in my ears, and I could only hear the sound of blood hitting my eardrums.

Next...

"Ding!" The system issued a cheerful and crisp prompt sound: "Host, congratulations on successfully connecting with your partner!"
