England 1986

Chapter 30 Siphis

The castle in front of me was originally called Rock Castle.

Different from some very famous castles, the main function of this rock castle was to serve as a military station similar to a small fortress!

Due to this function, the surrounding walls of the castle are all made of stone. From a distance, there are some brown dirty spots in some places, which are the traces left by the years.

Only later, it may be that the people of the Hill family disliked the name Rock Castle, and gradually changed it to the more straightforward Hill Family Manor.

The gate of the castle should have been made of wood in the earliest days. Although Syphis had never seen the gate at that time, the iron gate now looks a little delicate, and it is placed next to the castle. harmonious.

When passing by the orange skull, Syphis realized that it was filled with candy.

This is a place far away from the town, coupled with this weirdly shaped skull, although last night was a Halloween carnival night, let alone a child here, even if it is an adult this time, come here in the middle of the night and see In this kind of atmosphere, you don't have the courage to come and get candies, right?
There is even a trace of early morning mist left on the packaging of the placed candies.

When Sifies passed by, he picked up a few candies with colorful packaging, stuffed them into his pocket first, and finally picked up one, peeled off the outer packaging, and stuffed the candies into his mouth.

Since I happened to be lucky enough to see the candy box at the entrance of the Earl's Manor today, take it and try it!

"vomit!"

As soon as the candy was put into his mouth, a strange smell mixed with spicy taste came from Sifis's throat and reversed into his nose, and finally the spicy taste went straight to his forehead.

Siphis was about to spit out the candy, but when he raised his head, his eyes met the porter who opened the door.

"Uh, hello, I'm Sifis, butler Huth asked me to come, and His Excellency the Earl summoned me."

Syphis, who was burning hot in his throat, held candy in his mouth, suppressed the hotness, and introduced himself to the porter.

"Few people are used to this kind of candy. If you don't like it, you can spit it out."

The old man at the porter looked at the middle-aged man outside the door with weird eyes, and gave him a pertinent suggestion by the way.

"Pooh!"

After hearing what the concierge said, Syphis spit out the candy very decisively.

"Uh, actually, this candy is quite delicious. I just thought that I'm going to see Your Excellency in a while. It would be rude to eat candy in front of him."

"Okay, no need to explain, come in!"

"Okay, thank you!"

Syphis nodded and bowed to thank the concierge, and took out another candy from his pocket. After looking carefully, he found that it was ginger candy!
Underworld candy, a specialty of Great Britain——ginger candy!

are you crazy!

Who put this in the candy box at the door on Halloween?

Except for the fancy packaging, this stuff has nothing to do with sugar.

If you insist on explaining the taste, it's like eating a piece of ginger wrapped in essential oil!
Just this thing, if it is really eaten by some brat, it will definitely impress him and remember it for life.

"Sifles, what are you thinking, come here!"

"Oh, good morning, Butler Huth! I'm not late, am I?"

Seeing Butler Huth calling him at the door of the hall, Sifis quickly stuffed the ginger candy back into his pocket, and trotted two steps to Butler Huth.

"Your Excellency is measuring your body, come up with me."

This is the second time Sifis has come to Hill's manor, the last time
The last time was when the magazine was first established.

Sifis kept his eyes on the whole way, walked lightly, and followed closely behind Butler Huth. The whole castle seemed very empty, and coupled with the poor lighting, it was gloomy and depressing.

The two of them went all the way to the third floor before finally arriving at their destination, the door of the bedroom of the second young master of the Hill family, the new Lord Earl.

The open wooden door, as soon as Sifis stepped in, he was overwhelmed by the spacious bedroom area.

This was the first time he saw the second young master at home.

In the past, he might not be able to see the old earl once a year, and Housekeeper Huth would arrange for him directly if anything happened.

I didn't expect to meet the new earl for the first time, but it was in this kind of place.

Bypassing the living room outside the bedroom and stepping into the inner room, beside the large European-style bed, Syphis finally saw the legendary second young master——Alan Hill.

"Uh"

After only one glance, Siphis quickly lowered his head.

This was the first time he had seen this scene, five or six people in suits holding measuring tapes, surrounded the earl to measure his body.

And Allen was sitting by the bed, wearing a wide pajamas with his hands open, through the pajamas, he could vaguely see his streamlined figure, powerful muscles and some small scars on his body.

Just now, Sifis looked at the past for the first time, His Excellency the Earl's eyes were very sharp. Seeing this kind of eyes, combined with the current environment, Sifis was a little flustered.

"Honorable Earl of Carmarthen, I am Syfys, and it is a great honor to meet you."

"Hahaha! Didn't I just ask you to arrive at ten o'clock? You arrived so early, so you don't need to see outsiders. Although it's the first time we meet, I can often hear Huth mentioning you."

"Your Excellency, it's my honor to be summoned by you, and it's all right to arrive a little earlier."

"Okay! I called you here today, just to ask you, have you ever made a movie?"

"."

Sifis looked up at Allen cautiously, seeing him with a smile on his face, some didn't understand the current situation, so he could only answer truthfully.

"No."

"Well, it's like this, count your drama and photography team. After you go back, you can learn about the film crew and see what's wrong. According to the size of an ordinary crew, what manpower and equipment are needed? Report the list to Huth, and you will be the head of this new crew from now on."

"Your Excellency, do you want to invest in a movie project?"

This sudden arrangement made Sifis a little confused.

"It's not just an investment, but I want to shoot it myself!"

"???"

"Do you want to make a movie yourself?"

Sifis didn't know what the second young master's filmmaking had to do with him?
"Your future responsibilities can be understood as an assistant director, responsible for assisting me and passing down my requirements."

"My lord, may I ask what kind of film you are going to make?"

Although he has never made a movie, Sifis still knows a little bit about the process of making a movie. He is afraid that the Earl is playing tricks, that is, messing around.

There is nothing here. With a small team of two-dimensional photographers and a few more people, you can make a movie?

"Don't worry! It's what you are good at, otherwise, why should I use you?"

According to the request of several tailors, Allen stood up and changed his posture. A shoemaker in charge of shoemaking squatted on the ground, brought over a small bucket containing an unknown liquid, and motioned Allen to put his foot in it.

"Your Excellency. This is for making foot models."
