The filming location of "The Maze" was in S City. Gabriel's subsequent scenes went smoothly, and Henry, who was distracted, had no intention of rushing the progress, so just after nine o'clock in the evening, Gabriel removed her makeup, changed her clothes and prepared to go home.
Good, looks like I can have a good sleep today.
"What's wrong with Director Xu today?" Samuel stuffed Gabriel and the cat into the car. "Why do I feel like he's acting weird today? He doesn't look angry at all."
Gabriel stretched himself out like a pancake in the back seat: "I don't know, maybe it's too hot and I got a bit of heatstroke."
"It's possible," Samuel nodded as if he accepted the explanation, and then he said with a look of relief, "But you performed well today, and you didn't get overshadowed when acting opposite Mr. Lou. It seems that you still spent some time on the script."
"Xiao Samuel, you have taken such good care of me, it is only right that your father should earn some face for you," Gabriel yawned, "Drive carefully, and be careful not to be caught by the traffic police."
Samuel: ... He finally understood that Gabriel was not someone who could be praised.
But no matter how crazy Samuel was inside, as a dedicated and professional agent, he still sent Gabriel safely to the downstairs of the apartment building. Samuel originally wanted to send Gabriel all the way to his doorstep, but he didn't expect that Gabriel was particularly considerate today.
"No need to send me off. The security in this neighborhood is top-notch. Paparazzi can't get in."
Gabriel put on his hat, hugged the cat, and walked forward with his long legs. But when Samuel was about to drive home, Gabriel suddenly turned around and came back.
"Little Fangzi, go home and go to bed early." Gabriel patted Samuel's shoulder very gently, which frightened Samuel so much that his whole body shuddered. He didn't know what evil this ancestor was going to do next.
Gabriel smiled slightly: "I want to eat Shaomai tomorrow morning."
Hearing Samuel's helpless response, Gabriel went upstairs with satisfaction. Oliver in his arms couldn't help but meow: "The spiritual energy you gave to Samuel is almost overflowing, but it's a pity that this silly boy doesn't know it at all."
[It's best not to know. I don't want him to come to me crying and asking for comfort after seeing a ghost.] Gabriel entered the elevator and reached out to press the but.ton for the 22nd floor. [The old house is very gloomy at night, and Samuel's fate is weak. If I don't give him spiritual energy to urge him to go home quickly, who will buy my breakfast tomorrow morning?]
Oliver sneered: "You are a person who is hard on the outside but soft on the inside."
"Ding."
The elevator quickly reached the 22nd floor. Gabriel opened the door and entered the room. Oliver deftly reached into his cupboard and pulled out a bunch of dried fish and steamed buns. By the time he had eaten and drunk his fill and slumped on the sofa, Gabriel had already finished his shower and was curled up in bed playing with his phone.
Oliver raised his paw: [Lao Gu, I want to watch TV!]
"Open it yourself." Gabriel replied without even looking up. Although his fans jokingly call him the most cat-loving poop-scooper, in fact, Oliver is not an ordinary cat and he doesn't have to worry about ordinary things.
He was searching for information about Jason on his cell phone. Compared to the ghost hiding in the house and Henry who was obviously hiding something, Gabriel obviously cared more about Jason's secret.
Only by knowing both yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.
Unfortunately, Gabriel searched the Internet but couldn't find any information about Jason's identity or background. The stream of positive news made Gabriel realize that the background of this young master might not be simple.
Who made him a ghost who only focused on practicing? Gabriel lay down on the bed. He knew a little about the ghost circle and the entertainment circle, but he had no idea about the heavenly master circle.
But Jason is really popular. Gabriel opened his Weibo. Although his little VCs are also very powerful, the top trending search on Weibo is still #Jason's "The Mysterious House" start-up scene#. The influence of the veteran actor should not be underestimated.
---Even though this "veteran actor" is only 28 years old this year.
When Gabriel came to his senses, he had been browsing Jason's Weibo for a whole hour. Realizing that he was paying too much attention to Jason, Gabriel shook his head, threw away his phone, and reached out to take out the script to read.
"The House" is not just a simple thriller. It has a beautiful beginning, a plot full of melodrama, and a tragic but positive ending. Compared with the traditional "scary and screaming" ghost movies, "The House" is more like an art film about ghosts and humans.
This was one of the reasons why Gabriel was willing to take on this script. He had no interest in a plot where a team of people went on a suicidal adventure that resulted in the annihilation of the entire group, unless he was asked to play the boss who wiped out the entire group. After all, he had not experienced the feeling of being a demon in all these years.
But it is indeed a bit troublesome. Gabriel turned over uneasily in bed. A director who is haunted by ghosts and a leading actor who is obsessed with asking ghosts out for dinner, can this movie really be good?
"Snapped."
Just as Gabriel was lying on the bed with the script in his arms, the lights in the bedroom suddenly went out for no reason. The sounds of the quarrel between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law in the living room stopped abruptly. Oliver ran back to the bedroom from the living room, and his cat hair unconsciously stood up.
[Old Gu,] Old Bai gurgled softly from his throat, [something is coming in.]
The faint scent of peach blossoms filled the room. Gabriel slowly got out of bed holding Oliver. He wanted to see which junior was so ignorant that he even dared to break into his, Gabriel's, home.
Oliver is just an intelligent black cat. Apart from its sharp ears, eyes, and long life, Gabriel doesn't think it is any better than other cats. He put two fingers together and drew a line between Oliver's eyebrows. A bright red pattern immediately appeared on it, and after the light flowed, it disappeared silently.
The fragrance of peach blossoms became stronger and stronger. Gabriel walked towards the living room where the fragrance was strongest. But as soon as he took a step out of the bedroom, a white claw grabbed his ankle.
Huh? Was this junior's skill too weak or did he not want to hurt him? Gabriel paused and pretended to be trapped.
Do you think he is an ordinary person?
He wanted to see what this junior was up to.
"What is that?" Gabriel looked at the hand with only a skeleton left on his ankle with a trembling voice, as if he was frightened by this sudden strange sight.
He tremblingly took out his cell phone and pretended to call Samuel, but found that there was no signal on his phone at the moment.
It will also interfere with the magnetic field, so it seems that they are undoubtedly showing mercy.
As if having enjoyed Gabriel's embarrassment enough, the ghost hiding by the window finally took the next step.
The dazzling scarlet color spread across the wooden floor bit by bit, and finally condensed into three large characters written in a flamboyant style in front of Gabriel's eyes - Song He'an.
"call---"
The evil wind blew, the curtains fluttered in the darkness, and Gabriel felt a chill on his back. A cold hand held his shoulder, and a cold breath gently hit his ear: "Don't play Song and An... Remember?"
It was a low, hoarse female voice that couldn't be called scary. Gabriel frowned slightly, feeling that the voice was a little discordant.
Gabriel pretended to be terrified: "Why?"
The hand on Gabriel's shoulder increased its strength, but Gabriel seemed to be forced to be brave and said, "Be gentle!"
Then he softened his tone and said, "This is my job. I have no control over what role I play. Even if you kill me, it will be useless. Without me, there will always be someone else to play this role."
"Besides," Gabriel paused, "Julian is just a fictional character created by Director Xu. Why can't he act it out?"
This seemed to have hit the spot that the ghost behind Gabriel was most concerned about. She sneered and said in a hoarse voice: "Fiction? Character? Henry is just a treacherous villain, and it's a pity that you still worship him as a god."
After confirming that the ghost behind him was just trying to scare him, Gabriel followed up on the other party's words and asked, "Betrayal? Do you know Director Xu?"
"when..."
Before he could finish his nonsense, Gabriel saw a golden talisman paper flash through his window like lightning, and then fly accurately behind him.
"Swish!"
The burnt smell made Gabriel frown. He didn't care about playing any role-playing games. He regained his freedom easily with a burst of Qi.
However, he was still a step too late. A strong and majestic aura was approaching, and the golden talisman ignited without fire. The female ghost in a bright red cheongsam covered her face and kept dodging the golden talisman that was setting fire to her body. She looked very embarrassed.
Gabriel stretched out his hand to grab it, but the next moment the golden talisman flew towards him as if it had eyes.
"Meow!" The cat's cry echoed in the dark living room. Gabriel raised his right hand slightly, and a long sword as cold as autumn water fell into his hand.
With a sudden flash of cold light, Gabriel slashed at the golden talisman with his sword, but the golden talisman dodged the sword with great agility and even wrapped around Gabriel's wrist happily.
The female ghost with blood oozing from her fingers took this opportunity to turn around and flee. After the peach fragrance faded, the living room returned to its original brightness.
The flame on the golden talisman did not go out, and even Oliver, who was protected by the seal, could not help but jump out of Gabriel's arms, but Gabriel did not feel any burning pain.
Gabriel narrowed his sparkling peach blossom eyes: If he still couldn't figure out who the owner of the golden talisman was at this moment, he would be a real fool.
Gabriel walked towards the large floor-to-ceiling window of his house in slippers, holding the sword. Sure enough, a very familiar-looking man was floating outside the window.
Nowadays, can the Taoist priest fly with the help of talisman paper?
"Swish." Gabriel pulled the curtains mercilessly. Although he knew that Jason was most likely here because of the female ghost, it did not mean that he was willing to cooperate with the other party's actions.
Judging from Jason's character, if he had clearly expressed his refusal, the other party would probably not have just forced his way in.
But people make mistakes and horses stumble. The next second after Gabriel turned around, the floor-to-ceiling window of his house was opened silently.
"Since you're always avoiding me, I have no choice but to be rude," Jason raised the corners of his lips, his eyes showing the gloom that Gabriel had only seen once, "Gabriel, be my ghost."
A crisp, cool fragrance wafted into his nose, dispelling the sticky smell of peach blossoms in the room. Gabriel turned around and placed a sword on the side of Jason's neck.
"Jason, what's wrong with your brain?"
