Dust sleeps in light years

Chapter 30

No wonder everyone said that the initial allocation was unreasonable, and Xue Tao couldn't do such a thing.Xue Tao has a temper, not to mention that he can't lose face to ask for help, even if he gets in touch, he may quarrel if he doesn't speculate in three words.In the past, Guo Shujie only thought that Qiu He had a good temper, and had never seen her get angry. Only now did she realize that she has no temper at all, and her ability to swallow her anger has surpassed the scope of human beings.Like a piece of gummy candy, it will sag wherever you press it, and it will return to its original shape as soon as you let go.But Xue Tao also has Xue Tao's strengths. Guo Shujie noticed that when discussing the script, it was Xue Tao's decision on how to shoot and where to shoot.Xue Tao has profound artistic attainments, and his ideas are unconventional. Many of his demands sound unfeasible. Most people would have already collapsed, but Qiu He always said "OK, I will find a way", with only one exception.

That night, Qiuhe asked Xue Tao to discuss: "Can the scene at the subway station be modified? For example, at the bus station? After all, we are a non-profit student work with limited cost, which is incomparable with large-scale commercial films. We have to do it during the daytime." It’s not realistic to borrow a subway train to shoot. I asked Wang Yiming to ask his father to talk to him, and I also asked the department head to contact him on behalf of the school, but it didn’t work.”

Xue Tao hissed lightly: "Just ask the head of the department to give you more money."

"It's not a matter of money or not. It's the same amount every time. If we get more than previous years, then no matter how good the shoot is, it won't matter."

"What's the matter? Prices are skyrocketing now. Five years ago, this number was more useful than it is now." Xue Tao shrugged, "Change it if you want to, but let me tell you, it's a bit nondescript to use a bus to shoot this scene. , It’s like watching a mummy dancing hip-hop, you understand? Gunfight scenes require speed, atmosphere, and modernity. If you get a bus, there is only a small distance between the front and back, not to mention that there is nowhere to place the machines and tracks when shooting. Let’s just talk about the actor’s performance? Two shots will kill him, it’s useless, and two shots won’t kill him, the marksmanship is too bad. Let me tell you what I said before, when the time comes, it’s like a kindergarten kid playing with a water gun. Don’t blame me.”

Qiu He supported his head and sighed, bit his lips while looking at the script in his hand, and remained silent for a long time: "Can we guarantee that the filming will be finished in two hours?"

"Use the subway?"

"Yeah." "It can't be finished. If the subway is used, it has to be filmed together with the other two scenes related to the subway."

Guo Shujie thought to herself, if she were Qiu He, she would not have to slap Xue Tao.But after a while, she heard Qiu He speak into the phone in a flat tone: "Dad, I'm Qiu He. I have something..." While talking, she walked out of the dormitory.If Xue Tao was not there, Guo Shujie would have posted on the door to eavesdrop.She looked at Xue Tao in surprise: "Qiu He has a father?"

"Nonsense." Although Xue Tao said so, he still couldn't hide his surprise.Qiuhe moved here for a whole year, calling her mother every night, but never talked to her father.Everyone thought she came from a single-parent family.But the astonishment didn't stop there.

More than ten minutes later, Qiu He popped up at the door and asked Xue Tao, "Is one day enough?" Xue Tao gestured "OK".Then Qiu He went out for a while, and when he came back, he nodded his head and said to Xue Tao: "It's settled, you will come with me the day after tomorrow and pick a car with better condition, which looks good on camera." Pick a car?

Guo Shujie didn't relax for a long time.

[Eight]
If Qiu He’s negotiating ability and her unknown father made Guo Shujie’s eyes drop during the preparatory work, then Xue Tao’s outburst of aura at the shooting scene made her jaw drop again.The actors are all independent, the photographer complains about the machine, and the field workers are lazy and sabotage when they see that they are helping the students... Only Xue Tao can hold back such a scene.

The chief director wore a pair of skate shoes, his sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, his hips were crossed, his eyebrows raised, and his cigarette butt rolled over: "Are you fucking finished? Are you an actor? You are a freshman in the acting department? You can't even say a word." ? And you! You are so old, no one has taught you what scenery is? You put a track there and how do you let photography shoot!..." Wherever you point your fingers, you dare not make mistakes, she is the scene sole authority.

"Sturdy..." Guo Shujie wanted to use emotions such as "rude" and "violent".

If the chief director is Qiu He, who is soft and soft in the world, that scene really needs to be filmed for several days and nights, and people may be astigmatized during the filming.

Qiu He was wearing a black one-piece dress, white Martin boots, and a white polka-dot windbreaker with a soft fabric that was blown to one side by the wind, standing quietly not far from the monitor.In her eyes, Xue Tao's sharp and energetic appearance is like the sun shining directly through the clouds, and even her hair seems to be contaminated with her own aura, shining brightly.The sky behind Xue Tao is blue and high, divided into regular geometric shapes by several large cranes for shooting, which is so beautiful and rational.

For some reason, Qiu He suddenly felt sad.

You are so different from the crowd, not because of your outstanding talent, but because of hidden wounds in your heart.

No matter how deep the injury is, how much strength can be rebounded.These injuries make you unable to retreat and have nowhere to run.And this power prompts you to sacrifice all your energy and all your wisdom to fight the world.

Just as he was engrossed in his thoughts, he suddenly saw Xue Tao pointing towards him: "The scene is so chaotic and you let the idlers wait to visit the class, what good idea did you bring!"

Qiu He was taken aback and turned around.Ye Xuan didn't know when he was standing at the place where he was one step back with a smile.

The boy smiled and shouted at Xue Tao: "Why did I become an idler? I look like a famous actor, right? Just now...the one who turned on the light over there thought I was the leading actor." Ye Xuan said Speaking with a narcissistic smile, he gesticulated and said, "Your male lead was caught on the street, right? Like Wang Yiming was caught back then."

Qiu He glared at him: "What nonsense are you talking about! Keep your voice down!" Ye Xuan lowered his voice: "It's even more shabby than the ones caught on the street." He has always been good at killing two birds with one stone. "Acting is not just based on looks, you layman, don't make random comments." "Aren't you making movies for laymen? From the audience's point of view, we like beautiful boys with good features." Qiu He covered his mouth and smiled: "You have the same angle as the female audience."

"Are you mocking my mother again? Okay, you can be sarcastic. Anyway, I will go to Shanghai with you after I graduate. Anyone in Beijing will call me my mother when they see my face. Last summer vacation, I went to Jiangnan. Fuck, everyone agrees that I am the most manly..."

"No no no, wait a minute... Follow me? Go to Shanghai?" There is no part of this sentence that is not shocking.

"That's right." "Follow me?" Qiu He repeated. "Yes. Didn't you go back to Shanghai for Baoyan?" "Yeah." But what does it have to do with you?
"That's right. You are my daughter-in-law. If I don't follow you, who will I follow? You study, I must find a job to stay there with you." It's what he has always been good at—deduced based on the absurd premise The logical conclusion.

Ye Xuan's logic... To get rid of his crazy idea immediately, he must not be entangled in the root cause of "whether she is a daughter-in-law or not".

Just as Qiu He was about to speak, a classmate popped out and patted her on the shoulder: "I just came from the department office, and I heard the department head tell the deputy secretary that the tinfoil monster in your dormitory had an accident and was sent to the hospital. The people in our dormitory Hu guessed that it must be the spontaneous combustion of the human body, what is going on?"

"What happened to Wumi?" Lian Qiuhe also looked at a loss.

[Nine]
As Qiu He deduced, the series of murders in the school were all committed by the same murderer.She has been receiving threatening letters and white camellias, and has always felt the indescribable connection between herself and these murders, but she never thought that Umi, who is almost inseparable from her, will also become a victim, and is the only one. survivor.

The case has long been known on campus with the help of rumors.On the same day, the art department had a collective filming activity, and all members went to the suburbs.Wu Mi, who suffers from solar dermatitis, stayed in the dormitory because she was not fit to participate in outdoor activities, but she had no classmates to bring her meals when she went to the empty building, so she had to go downstairs to eat by herself at noon. Anesthetized and injected with an unknown fluid.

The murderer made a mistake this time, and what was injected was not a saturated solution of potassium chloride.Although there was a needle hole, repeated blood and urine tests were all normal.

A few days after the incident, the police have finished recording statements and collecting evidence. Wu Mi's parents were notified to go to Beijing to take care of her.Qiuhe ordered two nutritious dishes at the hotel, ordered a crockpot soup, packed a bag and took it to the hospital to see Umi.The girl had slight burn marks on her mouth and nose, but other than that she looked fine, and her emotions were not affected too much, she was still able to eat and laugh.

Qiu He sat quietly on the edge of the bed, watching Wu Mi innocently eating and gossip about celebrities on the Internet, she couldn't help showing a sullen expression on her usually calm face.

Umi took advantage of the opportunity when her parents went out to throw disposable lunch boxes, grabbed Qiu He's clothes and pulled her closer to her ear: "I haven't told the police, because I'm not sure—I think I saw the murderer, It seems to be Qu Hongran."

Before Qiu He recovered from the astonishing blow, he was frightened out of his wits by a shout from behind: "Qiu He, you are here! I have something to ask you, come quickly!"

Qiu He patted his chest and turned around to see Xue Tao poking his head at the door.

So she lowered her voice and told Umi: "Don't tell anyone about this beforehand. If the word gets out, you might be silenced."

Umi nodded vigorously.Her parents happened to be back in the ward, and Qiu He got up to say goodbye, and followed Xue Tao to the corridor.

"Umi's parents brought her laptop to the ward for her to play with. Her computer is almost unprotected, and she doesn't even have a power-on password. I have already checked it for you, because you didn't tell me the target, and I couldn't find anything. Valuable things, so before I take them away, I simply use a mobile hard disk to help you make a full copy, and you can find them yourself."

"Where's the hard drive?" "Go back to you."
