Immersive performance [entertainment circle]

With so much blood flowing out, the people inside would go into shock even if they didn't die.

Pei Lang was shocked for less than a second, and quickly called the police.Then he put his mobile phone next to him and took a video to keep his evidence, and found tools to break open the neighbor's door.

After opening the door and seeing the scene inside, Pei Lang suddenly remembered that his buddy Li Bai lived in this door.

The two of them grew up together and were close enough to swap underwear.Later, when the two grew up and moved out from home, they rented a house here together and became neighbors.

Strange, why didn't he remember who his neighbor was just now?

At this time Li Bai was lying in a pool of blood by the door, stabbed in the abdomen, his entire face was bloodless, and he had already passed out.

In addition to Li Bai, who revealed his identity, the delivery man and the boy in the dream are also played by Zhongqin, because most of the time this role is viewed from the perspective of "Pei Lang", adding "Pei Lang"'s personal interpretation, Therefore, the characters shown in different scenes are quite different, and the requirements for acting skills are very high.

Ji Shuyuan was not worried about his acting skills, but mainly worried that he would be too involved in the drama, be taken away by different role settings, and easily fall into mental confusion, so he would leave enough time for Zhongqin to adjust after each scene.

And Ji Shuyuan himself would occasionally feel a little dazed.For example, when the boy in the dream asked him if he was going to kill himself, he suddenly remembered that Zhongqin had asked him that too.

He said he always killed him in his dreams.

Reminiscent of the ending in the script, Ji Shuyuan's pain in the performance was even a bit excessive, so he repeated several shots.

Zhongqin may have noticed something, and he took him into a small room to comfort him afterwards: "Is it too much pressure? It's okay, it's your first time directing, so it's normal to have some difficulties. It’s not that I don’t have money, so if I take more pictures, I will take more pictures.”

It was rare for him to speak human words so tenderly, Ji Shuyuan's soreness was still in his heart, and he felt a little funny.

The staff outside thought that the director and the leading actor were talking about work, but he pinched Zhongqin's chin and leaned over to kiss.

"What should I do?" Ji Shuyuan held Zhongqin's neck, rubbing his thumb on the delicate skin, and said in a low voice, "I seem to be too involved in the drama."

"...Ah?" Zhongqin was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you say that it's easy for you..."

"It's different this time." Ji Shuyuan lowered his head against his forehead, "It's too similar to reality."

Zhongqin pursed his lips, and said after a long while: "It doesn't look like it, isn't reality good, it's not so miserable."

"But I'm always worried about losing you."

"How come?" Zhongqin hooked his neck and said seriously, "I said I wouldn't leave you."

"You won't leave me," Ji Shuyuan said, "but you may leave this world."

"...No way." Zhongqin argued without confidence, "I'm living a good life, why can't I think about it?"

Ji Shuyuan didn't refute him, and looked at him silently for a long time, before saying: "Actually, I have hesitated about the casting of this script. I think maybe I shouldn't play in person, or I shouldn't invite you to act. In short , the two of us should not be in this drama at the same time, otherwise I will continue to suffer for a long time."

"But the painful state is very suitable for this drama." Ji Shuyuan said, "I understand why you want to quit the circle now. The feeling of entering the drama is indeed very torturous, but it is also beneficial to this work. If you want to be an excellent actor , the essence is to consume one's own spirit."

"Don't say that." Zhongqin reached out and rubbed his chest, "When you feel bad, I feel bad too."

Ji Shuyuan took the opportunity to talk about the conditions: "Then you have to come to comfort me every time you finish filming a rival scene."

"Okay." Zhongqin said without hesitation, "How do you want me to comfort you?"

"Let me make sure you're still there."

Ji Shuyuan pinched his wrist, poked his fingertips through the cuff, and slowly rolled up the hem of his clothes with the other hand on his waist.

"...Mr. Ji..." Zhongqin felt itchy, shrunk back unconsciously, and hit the cold and hard wall with his shoulder, "You, don't go too far... There are so many people outside..."

"They can't see it." Ji Shuyuan said, "There is no place in this drama that requires you to show your flesh."

"..." Zhongqin gave up struggling, "then hurry up, don't make others wait too long."

"Ah."

Ji Shuyuan left several marks of his own on him, touched and looked at him for a long time, and finally felt better in his heart.

This person is his.

Fresh, warm, not hallucinations, nor dreams.

"Mr. Ji," Zhongqin muttered helplessly, "You are really like a dog, enclosing land and leaving marks everywhere."

"En." Ji Shuyuan responded, and asked aggressively, "When you go back tonight, can you continue to comfort me?"

Zhongqin wanted to scold him for being shameless, but when he met his eyes, he felt that he was really in pain.

No one can understand this difficult feeling better than Zhongqin. It feels as if the whole person is submerged in water, ups and downs, and things in his mind expand one second and shrink the next. .

When the eyes see reality, it seems that there is always a layer of veil, hazy and fuzzy.When other people talk to me, it seems to come from thousands of miles away, very ethereal and elusive.

Even the sense of touch will slow down a bit.

So Ji Shuyuan didn't notice at all how hard he was kneading and kissing him just now—there were even some bruises on Zhongqin's body.

He sighed, touched Ji Shuyuan's face, and said softly: "Mr. Ji, we have to go out to shoot the next scene. The eyes of the scene will be on you for a while, how do you feel the adjustment is going?"

Ji Shuyuan looked at him deeply, and it took a few seconds before he said, "You haven't answered my question yet."

"Okay, go back and comfort you, you can do whatever you want." Zhongqin said, "Can I go out to film now?"

After another few seconds of pause, Ji Shuyuan let go of him, nodded and said, "Go out."

Zhongqin put his hand on the doorknob, hesitated for a moment, then suddenly turned around and kissed on tiptoe, then leaned into Ji Shuyuan's ear, and said firmly: "It's not a hallucination or a dream, Teacher Ji, I love you and will never leave you. "

If he used to say this kind of intimacy, he might call him "brother", but now this term overlaps with that in the play, so he deliberately avoided that title.

Ji Shuyuan was breathless when he heard the words, and when he realized it, Zhongqin had already opened the door and walked out.

His Adam's apple was rolling, suppressing the urge to hold someone in his arms, and looked sideways at the blue sky - the bright and beautiful colors were completely different from what he saw when he entered the scene, which made people feel real.

Someone called the director not far away, Ji Shuyuan took a deep breath slowly, squeezed his forehead, and walked over.

The next few games will be Pei Lang's home game.

Seeing that Li Bai was seriously injured, Pei Lang immediately called an ambulance and at the same time spontaneously gave first aid.

Not long after, the police arrived at the scene and Li Bai was sent to the ambulance.

Pei Lang will have to follow the police to make notes for a while, so he can only watch Li Bai's figure at this time.

Even though the doctor just said that the first aid was done in a timely manner and that Li Bai's life would not be in danger, Pei Lang still felt a kind of breathless pain pervading his chest.

His eyes were fixed on Li Bai's bloodless face, and he took a step towards that involuntarily.

It wasn't until the ambulance left that he suddenly came back to his senses, frowning and thinking about the reason for his unreasonable fear just now.

After completing the record, the police went to the community management office to adjust the monitoring. Pei Lang logically said that he was not qualified to participate in the investigation of the case, but for some reason, when he silently followed the police to check the monitoring, no one came to stop him.

The surveillance showed that just 10 minutes before Pei Lang's takeaway was delivered, the deliveryman had already left the elevator, and then entered a blind spot of surveillance.

This building is a commercial and residential apartment located in a university town in the suburbs. There are several hotels and various tenants in the building. There are people coming and going, but the security facilities are not particularly strict.

The corridor in the building is in the shape of an "I", the elevator shaft is located in the middle, the surveillance camera is only facing the main corridor leading directly to the elevator, the branch corridors at both ends are surveillance blind spots, and the rooms of Pei Lang and Li Bai happen to be on the branch. The last two.

The delivery man walked to the end and turned a corner, and he could no longer see what he was doing from the monitor.

But judging from the time of the incident, the murderer can only be the delivery man or Pei Lang himself.

Immediately afterwards, the police began to search for the delivery man while restricting Pei Lang's travel. However, for some reason, the delivery man completely disappeared after leaving the apartment building, even though there was surveillance all the way outside the community.

The police searched for many days, but no one was found. The delivery man seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

So the police had no choice but to start from Pei Lang again and take him to the police station for questioning.

In the interrogation room, Pei Lang asked three questions.

The police officer who was in charge of the questioning was probably full of enthusiasm. He suddenly took out a pistol from his crotch, turned over the table, stood in front of Pei Lang, and put the muzzle of the gun against his head.

Pei Lang raised his eyes in a daze, and then realized something unreasonable.

For example, why did he forget that his neighbor was Li Bai, for example, why did the eyes of the delivery man make him feel so familiar, and for example, how could the police use such a method to question a witness who was not even the first suspect ...

So when the policeman pulled the trigger and the gun was about to be fired, Pei Lang woke up suddenly again.

—It turned out that he had a very long dream within a dream.

At this moment, he was indeed lying in front of the computer desktop, but because it had not been used for too long, the computer had automatically standby, and the screen was dark, reflecting his frightened face.

Before he could recover, there was a slight click sound, and the room was suddenly bright.

Pei Lang turned his head and looked over, Li Bai had just come out of the bedroom, his hair was disheveled, and he had an unhappy expression on his face, as if someone owed him 800 million, obviously the anger of getting up had not dissipated.

Clear memories flooded into his mind, and Pei Lang realized that this was really the reality.

In reality, he and Li Bai are indeed buddies who grew up together and got along so well that they could change their underwear. But different from the dream, he and Li Bai are not neighbors at all, they live in the same house at all. together.

That is to say, with such a good relationship, how could they still rent a house separately?Too much money to burn panic ah?

After thinking this through, Pei Lang suddenly felt lighter.

That is to say, there are so many loopholes in dreams, and every event in reality clearly has logic to follow.

For example, as a student who has not yet graduated from the police academy, Pei Lang has no income, and his daily expenses are subsidized by his mother, and his mother does not approve of him living outside, so in fact he lives here for a living. white house.

As for Li Bai, this kid doesn't like studying, his grades are in a mess, and he can't even pass the college entrance examination, so after graduating from high school, he entered the society to work. His current job is to deliver food. Although it is hard work, he can earn thousands of dollars a month. The money can barely cover his own expenses, so he doesn't have to reach out to his family like Pei Lang.

Apart from poor studies, Li Bai basically has no shortcomings. He is hard-working and motivated, and lives a positive and optimistic life.

He also has a good personality, as long as he doesn't find fault with him when he just woke up, Li Bai will basically respond to any request.

In addition, he usually speaks softly when talking to others, and loves to laugh. When he smiles, his eyes are crooked, and he is very good-looking, which always attracts a group of little girls to chase him.

It's just that Li Bai doesn't seem to have any desire to fall in love. He has been single for so many years, and he will alienate anyone who confesses to him.

Pei Lang felt that with Li Bai's character, he might not be willing to delay the little girl when his career was not going well.

Just as he was thinking wildly, Li Bai had already washed up and came out of the toilet, and judging by his expression, his anger should have subsided after getting up.

Realizing that Pei Lang was staring at him all the time, Li Bai frowned and rubbed his face and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I'm back to my senses." Pei Lang combed his hair with his fingers, and sighed, "I just had a long dream within a dream, which confused me."

Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered that the boy in his dream seemed, seemed, probably, maybe... Li Bai's face.

"...Crap." Pei Lang scolded, "Why do I keep dreaming about you?"

"Who knows, maybe you have a crush on me and don't know it." Li Bai joked with a smile.

"Get out!" Pei Lang scolded with a smile, "I like girls."

Li Bai raised his eyebrows noncommittally, and asked: "Then what did you dream about me? Good or bad?"

"Bad, for a while I dreamed that I was going to kill you, and for a while I dreamed that you were stabbed." Pei Lang cursed again, "Fuck, it must be because I didn't sleep well last night. The nightmare made me almost mentally weak."

"Then you should pay attention." Li Bai said slowly, "I already have depression, and if you have mental weakness, I can't bear you to toss about."

"……Um."

Mentioning this incident, Pei Lang became depressed again.

He had been out of school for a year because of depression.

This disease is expensive to treat, and it is also a kind of torture to the spirit of relatives.He has been living at home for the past year, seeing his mother become increasingly emaciated by his own torture, and his own pressure is also increasing.

So he didn't want to stay at home anymore, so he moved out to eat and drink with Li Bai.

Li Bai is different from his mother, she will not show that sad expression as soon as she sees him.The two of them get along very comfortably together, Li Bai never treats him special just because he is sick, but is the same as before, he should make trouble and scold him.

This atmosphere made Pei Lang feel very relaxed, and he felt good about himself that maybe his depression would be cured in a short time.

While thinking about it, Li Bai had already walked in front of Pei Lang, sat down beside him, and leaned his head on his shoulder.

"Played games all night?" Li Bai looked at the computer sideways, and said in a displeased tone, "Even if you have insomnia at night, you shouldn't do this. If you can't sleep, just close your eyes and rest your mind. At least you can be more refreshed the next day, and you won't have to do that. Kind of a nightmare."

"I know, I know." Pei Lang said, "I'm afraid that tossing and turning will affect your sleep."

The house Li Bai rented had only one bedroom and one living room, but luckily the bed was fairly big, so the two of them would squeeze together directly at night.

Because of his illness, Pei Lang was sleepy during the day and had insomnia at night. He was afraid of disturbing Li Bai's rest, so he often curled up in the living room to play games in the middle of the night.

"I'll tie you to bed tonight." Li Bai threatened, "If you stay up late and play games, I'll sell the computer."

"Okay, okay." Pei Lang smiled submissively, "I listen to my patron's father."

Li Bai turned his head to stare at him, and was about to speak when the doorbell rang suddenly.

It may be due to the influence of the dream, Pei Lang couldn't help getting goosebumps when he heard the voice, and jumped up from the sofa like a frightened bird: "Who?!"

"...What's wrong with you? Ringing the doorbell scared you like this?" Li Bai frowned and kicked him, "You're still a police student, I don't think you'll be able to graduate."

Pei Lang breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and asked, "Did you order takeaway?"

"Ang." Li Bai was paralyzed on the sofa, too lazy to get up, and commanded, "Go get it."

"Didn't you cook by yourself before?" Pei Lang hesitated, "Why do you suddenly want to order takeaway today?"

"I'm taking a day off today. I don't want to cook. What's wrong with ordering a takeaway? You have so many problems when you eat for free. It's good to eat some." Li Bai felt that he was unreasonable, and he was too lazy to talk much, so he just urged, " Hurry up."

"Okay." Pei Lang got up and walked to the door. The bell outside had already stopped. It is estimated that the delivery man left the things at the door.

In the past, Pei Lang was somewhat displeased with this kind of irresponsible behavior, but ever since Li Bai also started delivering food, Pei Lang has been very tolerant towards this business.

When he opened the door, the delivery man had disappeared, and when he looked down again, the things were indeed placed on the ground.

Just as he was about to bend down to pick it up, a flash of color suddenly appeared in his peripheral vision.

This scene and the feeling that came to my heart at this moment seemed familiar.

Pei Lang was startled, and slowly looked up——

The door diagonally opposite was open, and bright red blood spread from inside to outside into the corridor.

Next to the shoe cabinet in the house, a young boy was lying in a pool of blood with a knife stuck in his abdomen.
