Absurd deduction game

The title of Xiang Xiaoqun's new movie has been determined, called "Split Perception". After releasing relevant information on social platforms, his assistant sent some fragments of the script to artists under various entertainment companies.

Those who get the script are actors who Xiang Xiaoqun thinks are suitable for certain roles and hope to participate in the role. Of course, this is not absolute. If a better candidate appears in the public audition, he will definitely choose the latter.

The reviews given to Xiang Xiaoqun in the industry are more or less flattering, but there is no exaggeration in one thing - he is a person who can't get into trouble, and he refuses to bring in money to join the team or investors in every movie. Choosing the actors he thought would be the best fit, he thought would make the movie he wanted.

Looking at this alone, Xiang Xiaoqun is actually very tough in the director industry. After all, he has a fixed investor, the Wang Group, which ensures that he does not need to compromise for the sake of funds.

The public audition roles for "Split Perception" this time are the same as before, including male, female, and the final villain. There have been cases where the male protagonist is a newcomer acting for the first time. Judging from the audience's reaction, It seems that Xiang Xiaoqun never sees the wrong person, and his choices are always amazing.

On November 30, the first day of open auditions, the actors who had signed up and received audition notices came to a small town in AH. This small town itself is not well-known, but its name is widely known. It’s so wide, it’s even taking off every day…

Wuhu.

After Yu Xing rested at home for a few days, he left Mijin City again and ran to Wuhu to attend the audition. Due to the existence of Tang Dao, he could only take the bus and then transfer to a taxi, and his buttocks felt numb along the way.

The destination of the audition is a large scenic spot that has been renovated in Wuhu in the past two years, an ancient city that was renovated on the basis of the old city.

The ancient city has a very tall tower, facing the Qingyi River, and the city walls have a sense of age. There are many people wandering into the ancient city every day.

Yu Xing also went in for a stroll, and found that there were more businesses than historical sites, selling everything from clothes, food, souvenirs... The shops were decorated in an antique style, but some modern logos were still eye-catching, and there were so many shops. This place can be directly called an old-style commercial street.

The development of buildings with a real sense of age is slower. After all, they need to be carefully protected. There are also a few dangerous buildings that cannot be developed. They have been put there with seals and warnings.

Many actors' agencies couldn't understand why Xiang Xiaoqun chose the audition location in such a crowded place. However, in view of Xiang Xiaoqun's reputation and film reputation, they could only cooperate and arrived at the audition location at the specified time - —An old abandoned school.

Not many people go around the school, because it is an empty shell with almost no tables and chairs preserved inside. It is not nice to look at because it is empty, and it is not fun. Most tourists will ignore the road to the school. Fortunately, when they get there, By that time, the school had been circled and upgraded from unattended to compulsorily unattended.

However, after a brief glance, Yu Xing could understand why he auditioned here. There was a section about the old school building in the script he wrote. The description in it was the same as this abandoned school. It was a relatively low townhouse. Xiaoqun is to see the overall performance effect.

Wait... It's not like no one cares about it. Today is an exception. Many tourists heard that there are celebrities here and stopped outside to watch the fun. There were even special paparazzi squatting here to take pictures.

This is very difficult for the actors who come to audition. The streets here are narrow and cars can't get in. They are all tightly packed. Accompanied by their agents or assistants, they quietly approach the staff standing guard, and then quickly run in, leaving nothing behind. Passers-by erupted in exclamations and speculation.

Yu Xing is similar. Although he has a face that is completely unfamiliar to others, the onlookers don't know much about celebrities. They don't care who you are. Anyway, if you are good-looking and a celebrity, there will be a commotion.

Wearing the same white down jacket, mask and hat, he quietly entered the restricted area, pulled down his mask and said hello to the guard, and then wandered into the school building.

There was a whole row of people sitting in the corridor on the second floor who came to audition. Yu Xing could see the backs of each of their heads from the platform below. He walked up and received his number plate from a young lady with a work permit. .

The audition was held in an empty classroom. Yu Xing had already checked it out. Xiang Xiaoqun conducted the interview together with the screenwriter and investor representatives. A row of temporary plastic seats was placed outside the empty classroom for the actors to wait outside. His arrival didn't cause any waves. After all, he was wearing a mask. The dozen or so actors in front of him saw that he didn't even have an assistant. They thought he was a newcomer to the small company, so they didn't pay special attention to him.

Yu Xing's Tang Dao was left in the hotel where he was staying. He came here carrying a bag this time. After sitting down, he took out the printed script from the bag - this was the character he received after signing up to audition for the killer. In summary, there are two fragments that completely fail to deduce the direction of the entire script.

The audition clips for each role are different, but the same characters get the same script. The competition is very straightforward, just to see who can act well and who fits the role better.

The young man on Yu Xing's right was also without an assistant. He was wearing a mask and his curly hair had obviously been styled in advance. The young man glanced casually and saw that Yu Xing was holding a killer book. He couldn't help but talk to him: "Hello, how are you?" Do you also want to play Ren Xin?"

Ren Xin is the murderer with a dark psychology and horrific methods in the script. From what I hear, this young man's target is also this character.

Yu Xing smiled, his exposed brows and eyes full of friendliness: "Yes, feel free to come and try."

The young man didn't mean to introduce himself. When he heard the affirmative answer, he muttered: "Haha, your temperament doesn't seem to match Ren Xin. Maybe the third male student is more suitable for you."

Yu Xing ignored him.

It doesn't matter who the second and third actors are, anyway...it's impossible to film this movie. If everything goes well, Xiang Xiaoqun will be able to go to jail under the spotlight before the filming officially starts.

At this time, a girl happened to come out of the audition classroom. Her expression seemed not to be good. She had a stiff face and was accompanied by her agent downstairs. Under the guidance of the crew, she walked through another hidden path where there were no tourists. left.

Yu Xing looked at her back, then at the group of actors in front of her, and secretly teased her in her heart.

I really feel sorry for you young people. A movie that is destined to never be made is a waste of the enthusiasm of these young people.

What followed was a boring wait. The sign Yu Xing got was number 23, and more people came one after another. He ignored it and concentrated on playing with his mobile phone.

Speaking of which, after returning from Fenggulanting in Nancheng, he studied the [Delay Bracelet] in the deduction mall. In fact, he had seen this thing before, but because of the name, he thought the Delay Bracelet was a ghost. He didn't pay attention to the delayed props at all. It wasn't until he caught a glimpse of the relevant barrage that he faintly realized that he seemed to have overlooked something very important.

After some research, I discovered that, sure enough... the delay bracelet is actually used to delay the start time of the next game. A bracelet can delay the start of the next game for five days. It costs 200 points and can be renewed indefinitely until the points are insufficient.

200 points can be used to buy five days of "life", which is not expensive at all. It has only one drawback, that is, it cannot prevent the deduction entrance opened by other props, such as Alice's ruby, even if a deduction player wears a delay hand. string, it will still be forced to enter.

After understanding this, Yu Xing solved the lingering doubts that had always been there, which was why it took several years for some people from the three major families to advance to the differentiation line.

It turns out that most deducers will buy this kind of bracelet to extend their survival time. After all, for most deducers, the absurd world is very dangerous, and they do not want to accept life and death tests that are too frequent.

It's the kind of people like Yu Xing who don't care about anything, and the kind of people like Zhao Yijiu who are not afraid, who are able to develop their strength so fast.

…

More than two hours later, the young lady standing at the door of the classroom finally called Yu Xing's name. Yu Xing walked over, handed in her number plate, and pushed the door open.

The empty classroom was clean, a few tables were moved from somewhere, and a few people in casual clothes were sitting there, looking uninterested.

Yu Xing saw Xiang Xiaoqun sitting in the middle at a glance. The director was in his early forties and his hair was a little thin, especially on the top of his head.

Except for the hair problem, he looks upright and thin, with no expression on his face. It seems that he has not found his favorite actor and is in a low mood.

This was the first time that Yu Xing saw Xiang Xiaoqun head-on. He took off his hat and mask, and the eyes of several people who had been staring at him since he entered the door suddenly lit up.

"Isn't that right, Yu? We looked at your information and found that you graduated from Ruibo University in Mijin City this year?" The screenwriter next to Xiang Xiaoqun flipped through the paper information from previous years, "You have no acting experience before? "

"Yes." Yu Xing spoke concisely and to the point, acting neither humble nor overbearing, and did not see the great director's nervousness.

Zhu Yan helped him get the graduation certificate from Ruibo University. It is not difficult for a hacker of Zhu Yan's level to hack into the system, then quietly restore it and erase the traces of the intrusion.

"Your appearance is very suitable for the entertainment industry." The investor representative couldn't help but praise.

The investor's surname is Dong, and he is a very valued subordinate of Wang Cheng. According to Zhu Yan's investigation, Dong's subordinate may have also been involved in Xiang Xiaoqun's case, and at worst he was an insider.

Yu Xing accepted the compliment calmly and answered a few decent questions.

"You want to play Ren Xin?" Xiang Xiaoqun had been watching coldly, and then suddenly spoke, with no indication of agreement or disapproval in his tone.

"Yes, I studied the personalities of each character and found that I like Ren Xin the best." Yu Xing's eyes flashed and he showed a slightly strange and subtle smile.

"There were several auditions before you, including the audition invitation I sent to the entertainment company. Everyone was vying for this role. There were all reasons, but no one said they liked him." Xiang Xiaoqun leaned forward slightly. , giving people a sense of oppression from a great director, "Do you know why?"

Yu Xing said: "Because he is a pervert and does not conform to the three views of ordinary people. Or, he conforms but dare not show it."

"Then why do you dare? Do you really know what kind of person Ren Xin is? After seeing part of the script, what made you say the word "like"?" Xiang Xiaoqun asked questions one after another, even appearing to It's a bit aggressive. If it were an inexperienced newcomer, he might be so nervous that he would cry.

Yu Xing licked her lips under his burning gaze and said with a smile: "There are not so many miscellaneous worries. I like him, so I can play him well, that's all."

In the ears of these people sitting at this moment, what he said was simply arrogant. Xiang Xiaoqun still stared at him, his eyes more serious than before: "In that case, then perform a scene to prove to me that you are not Talking nonsense."

Yu Xing said there was no problem.

Xiang Xiaoqun didn't even need to read the script and said calmly: "Play No. 2."

The scripts given out are numbered according to numbers 1, 2 and 3. The three scenes of the character Ren Xin are in three different periods - No. 1 is when Ren Xin pretends to be a normal person and stays with the protagonist, and No. 2 is when Ren Xin pretends to be a normal person and stays with the protagonist. It is the first time that the audience sees Ren Xin killing someone from a God's perspective. No. 3 is a conversation when Ren Xin is chasing the protagonist.

No. 2 is the most difficult scene among them, with the fewest lines, many emotions can only be expressed through eyes and movements, and no physical performance is required. It is probably Yu Xing's self-confidence that made Xiang Xiaoqun curious, and that's why he was embarrassed from the beginning. .

Of course there was nothing wrong with Yu Xing. He took two steps back to indicate that he was starting.

…

The male and female protagonists of Separated Perception are a pair of graduate students who have just started school. The male protagonist is studying bioengineering, and the female protagonist is the same. They have been in love for two years and have an extraordinary tacit understanding with each other. This is also the last time the two of them fight against each other. Ren Xin's key.

Ren Xin is the male protagonist's new roommate. Not long after the film started, Ren Xin officially appeared as a very cheerful and talkative image. It didn't take long for him to get acquainted with the male protagonist and became his best friend after he was promoted to graduate school.

He is particularly good at hiding his true character. The audience may think of him as a funny guy at most. He can make complaints and assist at the same time. He is a major contributor to the relationship between the male and female protagonists getting better and better.

In addition, Ren Xin's external conditions are very good. Girls always come to him to express their feelings, but he refuses them simply. He is a decisive person.

Regarding appearance, Yu Xing is very confident that Xiang Xiaoqun's eyes will light up as soon as he walks in - because the face of the character Ren Xin is basically the character he wrote based on his own template, and it is 80% similar to him.

Generally speaking, this is a very likable character in the early stage. The editing effect will also create a tense illusion that Ren Xin has been targeted by the killer. Therefore, when Ren Xin reveals his identity as a killer, under the influence of the male protagonist, When a person is killed under the nose and the male protagonist is blinded and knows nothing about it, the fear in the audience's heart will reach its peak.

Yu Xing began his performance without physical objects.
