At seven o'clock in the evening, the meeting started on time.
After the countdown on the screen ended, the entire hall suddenly darkened and all the lights were turned off.
After a small commotion in the crowd, the crowd soon became quiet.
"Tsk, is this the way you arranged for them to appear?"
Producer Murphy, who was sitting in the front row, turned his head slightly and said to director Carter next to him in the dark.
Carter shook his head, not knowing whether Murphy could see it or not, "No, no, no, I just told them to prepare a small opening performance. They are all experienced actors and know how to mobilize the audience's atmosphere.
"
"That's true, but..." Murphy hesitated, then looked at the stage again. At this time, his eyes had slightly adapted to the dark environment, and he could see a little more clearly.
After he saw Carter's face, he turned his head, not wanting the other party to see his expression.
Carter, however, became curious about what he wanted to say: "But what?"
"Nothing." Murphy replied. He just thought of something and was slightly unhappy, but it was not a big deal and not worth mentioning.
However, one of the biggest actors next to him said what he was thinking: "Mr. Murphy probably remembered the last meeting, which did not go well because of some accidents. Not only did it cause a commotion, but in the end everyone
They were also forced to film under supervision. This time Renzi and the others turned off the lights again to perform, and Mr. Murphy may be worried that something will happen again.”
"This..." Carter's expression was a little stiff. He had never thought about this, let alone reminded Renci and the others.
The atmosphere was a bit wrong. The crew members sitting nearby all thought of the unhappy things before. Finally, as a producer, Murphy spoke to comfort him: "Hey, I'm not thinking about that, I'm just thinking about Maus."
The past two days have not been good. I am just worried that he will lose his temper. As for whether to turn off the lights or not, what happened last time was just a coincidence. The young lady happened to misunderstand. Nothing will happen this time."
Carter also smiled and smoothed things over: "That's right, and we specially held it in a hotel this time, with more than a hundred guests, either reporters who won't panic in any situation, or the most loyal fans of "The Detective". How is that possible?
Will there be riots? Hahaha."
When everyone heard what the producer and director said, they were naturally relieved.
"That's right. How could he be so unlucky? What kind of trouble would he cause at the fan meeting?"
"Let me see, maybe Renci and Maus did it deliberately to make us nervous."
"If you think so, the fact that Maus would arrange this appearance means that he is not panicked at all. Really, he deliberately pretended to be like that."
Everyone on the crew was talking to each other, and there was a lot of joy. After the lights went out, other people present immediately thought of the unpleasant meeting before. Now that they saw the crew repeating the same tricks, they couldn't help but be curious and wanted to know.
What kind of performance will they bring this time?
Only Captain Seven knew that on this similar night and similar meeting, something bad might happen again.
…
"You can't escape!"
Accompanied by this iconic catchphrase, Detective Renzi was the first to appear. He slowly walked out from behind the stage wearing the suit he almost never changed in the TV series.
Producer Murphy, who was sitting in the front row, let out a breath and half-jokingly said to the people next to him: "Look, let me just say, Lenci and the others did it on purpose. This guy still has some sense of proportion and knows that he will appear first."
, and then read out his line, and there will never be any misunderstanding like last time."
The last riot was entirely the result of various coincidences. One of the reasons was that the armored weirdo played by Maus appeared first, and Renzi, who appeared later, failed to read his lines.
The others also heaved a sigh of relief and smiled at the two of them.
In the middle of the audience seats, the second captain stared at Renzi on the stage for a long time, and finally shook his head in an almost invisible motion.
"I see, that's the kid here. Huh, it's just like what he said. He's a guy with restless factors in his blood. He's our best assistant. But if he's here, he's acting like an armor.
The weird thing is..."
The second captain looked to the other side of the stage, where another figure had appeared, it was the armored weirdo who was supposed to be played by Maus.
After seeing the figure of the armored monster, the second captain's face showed a smile under his mask. This was the second or third time he smiled today, more than in the past year.
"Maybe that thing is coming." The second captain said to himself in his heart, and then he was about to get up and go outside. He didn't like sitting with so many people.
Before leaving, he took one last look at "Lench" and "Armor Monster" on the stage, "You are really a playful kid with weird ideas. Although I don't know what you are planning to do when you are dressed like this, but you will never go beyond that."
My expectation is that I'd better go outside and wait. Maybe only the last scene tonight can make me a little interested. Well, that's..."
The second captain smiled again. He saw a fleeting figure in the last row of seats, but he did not pass by and just continued to walk out of the hall.
At the back of the hall, the seventh captain hid behind the reporter who was standing taking pictures, secretly looking at the second captain.
"Why is he going out at this time? The meeting has just begun. Could it be that what he wanted to see didn't happen here?"
Captain Seven turned his attention to the stage. At this time, Renqi and the armored weirdo were both walking towards the middle of the stage, and they were about to meet each other soon.
Captain Seven frowned. He could feel that the armored weirdo was fake and should be Orin VI pretending to be him.
This made him a little worried.
On the way to follow the second captain here, he also checked the information about Orin VI, and all of them said that he was an extremely cruel butcher. Although the information about this betrayed king may not be reliable.
, but one thing is absolutely unmistakable, this is a very extreme racist who hates any non-human race.
Regardless of whether they are civilians or soldiers, whether they are civilized or uncivilized races, as long as they are not human beings, they are no different from wild beasts in his eyes and can be slaughtered at will.
This has nothing to do with physical evidence, but also with human witnesses.
For a person like this, now coming to Brica City with the fury of revenge, one can imagine what will happen.
Just looking at the meeting tonight, there are many non-human races.
Captain Seven is worried that someone will get hurt.
"One more thing..." Captain Seven looked around Renci and the stage, "Where did that kid go, or is this Renci really him? And where are the real Renci and Maus..."
At this moment, an earth-shattering scream suddenly sounded from the scene.
Captain Seven looked towards the center of the stage and was immediately shocked.
On the stage, the "Armored Man" had pierced the heart of "Lench" with his long sword.
