Beauty Comprehensive 1999

Chapter 87 News about the Haunted House

Xie Zihao was a little speechless. Looking at his best friend, he thought to himself, "You are just a Ye Gonghaolong. If you really see a ghost, won't you be so scared that you wet your pants?"

However, out of the mentality of showing off in front of others, Xie Zihao still performed for him. After all, as a young man, he also has the desire to show off, but it is difficult for him to display his overly exaggerated abilities in front of outsiders.

Under the surprised gazes of Todd and Melinda, Xie Zihao's hands suddenly erupted into a ball of crimson fire, and then the flames transformed into a fire dragon from the Tang Dynasty culture, playing and flying around his hands, shoulders and head, etc.

The two of them looked quite dazzled.

"Oh my God, what are you doing? It's amazing!"

After dealing with the curious Todd, Melinda also brought three cups of coffee and asked curiously: "Lance, is this real flame or an illusion?"

This is not something that can be caused by a simple magic effect.

Xie Zihao has never shown such a magical method in front of her. Regardless of how powerful it is, this eye-catching sound and light effect is really cool.

"These are all illusions. Of course, if you encounter danger, sometimes illusions can become real!"

Xie Zihao did not hide anything from the two of them, especially his best friend Todd. Instead of letting him find out later when he bumped into each other, it would be better to confess from the beginning. He believed that given Todd's situation, he should be able to keep it a secret.

Some senior psychics in the circle can be regarded as spiritual masters, but they can't do magic tricks like Xie Zihao's, not to mention they are so easy to pull off.

As for her, apart from being able to communicate with souls, she has basically no extraordinary powers.

Todd didn't understand the difficulty involved, but he admired and envied the cool scene very much.

Although he really wanted to learn this skill, knowing Xie Zihao's character, he did not speak rashly.

So after taking a sip of coffee, she immediately gave Melinda a thumbs up.

She asked Todd's taste in advance, and what she encountered was a mocha mixed with espresso, chocolate sauce, fresh cream and milk. It is an ancient coffee that basically meets the taste of most people.

Her own is an Americano, which is a diluted espresso with a lighter taste. Because it is already five o'clock in the afternoon, she has to consider sleeping at night. In addition, considering her figure, she is not suitable to eat so much milk at night.

and sugar.

The cup for Xie Zihao was a cappuccino with sugar and milk as usual. Melinda took care of Xie Zihao's taste and specially added a little raw coconut powder to his cup to increase the taste. It was artificial non-dairy creamer.

An irreplaceable fragrance.

Strictly speaking, cappuccino is also a type of espresso, but it seems that it is now regarded as a fancy one by those paranoid black coffee lovers, who think that cappuccino is not real coffee and is regarded as the same as latte.

Some men drink it as a sissy drink.

But what the heck? Xie Zihao thinks that as long as he likes it, it’s fine, and there are many real Italians who like to drink latte coffee. Isn’t that just a lot of milk mixed with a small amount of espresso?

?

Those who pay attention to this and demand that are hypocritical in his opinion.

Just like he drinks beer, it is always just a drink to quench his thirst, not a kind of wine. Moreover, he doesn't like drinking, especially high-strength liquors such as liquor, vodka and whiskey, which always have a strange taste and acrid throat.

In addition to beer, he can accept sweet cocktails or champagne.

Todd, on the other hand, greatly praised Melinda's skills. If he hadn't noticed that the relationship between his best friend and the beautiful partner was a bit ambiguous, he would have started to be courteous long ago.

Halfway through drinking the coffee, Todd seemed to remember something and suddenly said:

"By the way, Lance, do you remember the treacherous house where you had an accident?"

Xie Zihao was stunned when he heard this, and then asked:

"Of course I remember, what happened? Could something strange happen there again?"

Melinda also looked at Todd with a hint of curiosity.

Todd said with a mysterious face:

"The crew I'm working next to is a horror film crew. I heard that they rented that haunted house, and something happened to an actor two days ago."

Because of the celebrity aura, the entertainment industry has always been one of the most gossipy places. On a set like the one Todd works in, gossip is flying everywhere every day. And with Todd's crazy personality, Xie Zihao can gain a lot from him.

Nor is it surprising that there is a lot of first-hand gossip information.

"I remember that your crew's set was on the north side of downtown Los Angeles?"

Xie Zihao felt that he could go over and have a look. He was still very curious about the strange house that caused the original body to have an accident and that he had traveled through time. However, because the original body's memory was very vague, and the power of his time-traveling directly destroyed that strange house.

The unlucky resentful souls had all been dispersed, so he didn't know much about that place.

Now there is a rare opportunity, not only to avenge the original body, but also to recruit more ghosts and other spirits as members of the paper man army.

The incomplete souls of the knock-off Wendigo monsters he obtained before seemed to be missing some key things. He tried to make paper man Yin soldiers, but found that they were far worse than the unlucky ghosts in the ring. The finished product was at best

It's just disposable cannon fodder.

Therefore, if you want to refine a real army of paper-man soldiers and horses, you still need at least the spirit body of a wraith.

After listening to Xie Zihao's question, it is no exaggeration to say that as the person who is most familiar with Xie Zihao, Todd also saw the meaning of his best friend, and couldn't help but said with some surprise:

"Yes, you were not interested in these things before, so why do you want me to take you to experience the charm of Hollywood now?"

Xie Zihao directly interrupted his fantasy and said:

"No, I just want to see if there is anything abnormal at your place. Later, I also want to visit the actor who had the accident. Maybe I will go to the mysterious house again to find out..."

Hearing what Xie Zihao said, Todd became excited and said hurriedly:

"I can take you there, but can you let me watch and film the process of your exorcism? I think this is a good movie idea, and maybe it can be made into a real supernatural movie!"

The corners of Xie Zihao's mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly wondered what he was filming? Is it filming Blair Witch or The Ghost Story?

"I remember you didn't have money to rent a camera, but you only had a handheld video recorder, right?"

Todd nodded as he should and said:

"Yeah! But what happened to the handheld video recorder? In the past two years, there have been many short films shot with handheld video recorders. I think it might be a novel idea to shoot a feature film with a handheld video recorder! Yes, that's right.

so……"

Seeing his friend trapped in fantasy and longing, Xie Zihao was too embarrassed to interrupt him.

After seeing Todd come back to his senses, he said:

"You can shoot, but if I don't want to be on camera in the later stage, you have to cut out the shots of my face. You know, our industry is not suitable for excessive exposure to the public, and the Federation also has people who are responsible for the extraordinary world. Law enforcement agencies, I also have to avoid them."

After hearing Xie Zihao's words, Todd realized the seriousness of the matter, and he said with a somewhat regretful tone:

"It's a pity that your face and figure are so photogenic. If you were willing to show your face or even show some flesh, I guarantee that even if the film doesn't make it to the theaters, as long as your face is printed on the cover, it will be fine. It’s so popular that you can buy it in the video market!”

Hearing this, Xie Zihao couldn't help but raise his middle finger to his bad friend:

"You should go to the San Fernando Valley, it's such a waste of your talent in Hollywood, there are tons of naked men for you to shoot!"

Todd seemed to think of something when he heard this, and suddenly trembled.

"I'm just kidding, haha! Miss Melinda, I'm not a gay, Lance, you have to testify for me!"

Xie Zihao looked at him deliberately with suspicious eyes.

"Speaking of which, you have been with me from middle school to university. Do you have any special thoughts about me, so you have been following me on purpose?"

Melinda looked at the two friends laughing and joking with each other, and her mood improved a lot. It was the first time that she saw Xie Zihao so happy and relaxed, instead of the melancholy and handsome guy he used to be.

Second update!

Thank you all for your support! Happy holidays to everyone!
