Chapter 540 Final Performance
"Crack——" Along with this crisp and harsh sound, it seemed as if the entire space was torn apart.
Immediately afterwards, there was the horrifying scream that pierced the sky: "Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!" The sound echoed through the sky, making people's eardrums hurt.
Well, after this crisp sound and a scream, Lydia successfully helped Jack reconnect his dislocated arm. She was skilled and quick, completing this seemingly simple but highly skilled operation in the blink of an eye.
At this time, Jake was lying on the ground helplessly, like a fish out of water, gasping for air. His face was full of pain, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and he kept muttering, "I am so unlucky..."
It seemed that he was tortured by the severe pain just now, so much so that he had no strength to get up from the ground.
Moreover, since his dislocated arm had just been reconnected, the piercing pain still remained in his body, making it extremely difficult for him to even move his fingers.
Natasha, who was standing nearby, saw this and a worried look appeared on her face.
She walked up to him and asked softly, "Jack, how do you feel? Are you okay?"
However, Jake just shook his head slightly and replied weakly: "My arm still hurts a lot. I just want to lie down and rest for a while. I don't want to do anything."
Seeing Joke in such pain, Lydia couldn't help but frown. She turned to Natasha and said:
"In short, Natasha, I'd like to trouble you to pay more attention to Joke during this period. His old arm is always dislocated, which is not a small problem. If you don't pay attention, it is very likely to become a habitual dislocation. It will be more troublesome to treat it at that time. So, you must take more care of him!"
Natasha nodded solemnly and said that she would take good care of Jack.

"Anyway, there's only one scene left, and we can leave after we finish it! Everyone, work harder and finish it quickly!" Muro tightly grasped the script in his hand, which had been read many times and was slightly worn. He quickly scanned the densely packed words on it and secretly breathed a sigh of relief - this long and arduous filming journey was finally coming to an end.
At this time, the set was filled with an atmosphere of tension and anticipation. Everyone was busy, some were arranging costumes and props, and some were whispering about their understanding and feelings about this last scene.
Muro raised his head and his eyes fell on Joke who was not far away. Joke stood there quietly, his face looked a little pale, and his eyes revealed a trace of uneasiness. Violetta obviously noticed Joke's abnormality, she walked quickly to Joke's side and asked with concern: "Joke, how do you feel? Seeing you look, I am really a little worried."
Joke forced a smile, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, Valletta. I just need to cover my face and run out of the tent screaming. I can still handle such a simple thing......"
Although he said it lightly, his slightly trembling hands betrayed his true emotions.
It’s not because Jock felt there was anything wrong with Carl’s script, but because the Joker had been staring at him from a distance, which always made him feel a little creepy.
.................................................. ........................
"Okay, in that case, let's stop talking nonsense and finish the filming as soon as possible! Get ready... start!"
.................................................. ........................
"He should be with the beasts!"
"Valletta is wrong...Valletta is wrong..."
"No! Please! Serge!!!"
"Aaaaaaahhh!!! No! No! My face!!!!"
.................................................. ........................
"Okay, stop—"
The people who were lying on the ground stood up one after another.
"Hahahahaha!!!"
It was only then that Natasha finally couldn't hold back her laughter.
Since everyone chose a bottom line for the previous shot, that is to say, the "Sergey" who pushed Natasha out of the haunted house was pretended by someone else, because Jake was in the next shot right after him, and he couldn't run that fast.
So who was impersonating "Sergey"?
Uh... I can only say that I feel pity for Norton...
There was no way. Among all the people present, he was the only one whose body shape was most similar to Qiu Ke's.
(Ah, I know that in the game, Joke (the crying clown) is actually shorter than Norton, but don’t forget what the author wrote in the novel. Joke left the circus at the age of 15 and came to the manor. With the right nutrition, he naturally grew taller.)
However, Norton refused this matter at first. Putting aside other things, his body was covered with scars from the mine explosion. When these were filmed, wouldn't it be obvious at a glance that he was a fake?
And to be honest, he was such a disgusting guy that Norton didn't want to pretend to be him for the filming. Norton felt disgusted, so he just found a random excuse to get away with it.
However, is the truth really so simple that he could get away with it so easily? The answer is obviously no.
At this time, everyone showed the "hard evidence" - the clothes that belonged to "Sergey". This dress has a unique design and is tightly wrapped. Not only does it completely cover the body, but even the hands are tightly protected by long gloves.
What is more worth mentioning is that the scene at that time happened to be backlit, and people could only see a rough outline of a figure.
Faced with this situation, Norton was speechless and could no longer find any excuses to refute.
After all, if he had put on the suit, applied a little facial makeup, put on a wig, and then stood at that backlit angle, who could tell whether it was "Sergey" himself or the imposter Norton standing there?
Seeing that the truth had been revealed, Norton was still unwilling to give up and tried to make a final desperate struggle: "Can I...can I say no?"
But what he got in response was a firm, unconditional "No!"
.................................................. ........................
After Carl shouted "Stop", Norton breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to act impatiently.
He unbuttoned his clothes at lightning speed, as if there were some disgusting stains on them.
In the blink of an eye, he had torn his shirt to the ground, and then hurriedly took off his pants and threw them aside.
Then, Norton grabbed a clean towel on the table and wiped his face anxiously. He rubbed it hard, as if he wanted to completely wipe off the thick and disgusting makeup on his face.
In fact, due to the lighting problem in the entire scene - Norton was always backlit, no matter how delicate and gorgeous the makeup on his face was, he could not be captured by the camera.
Therefore, to save trouble, the "makeup artists" simply used white foundation to paint his entire face pale, and did not spend too much time painting other parts.
It's understandable, then, that once Norton had gotten rid of that annoying outfit, the next thing he did was get rid of the terrible makeup on his face.
After all, that face painted as pale as paper was really unbearable to look at.
.................................................. ........................
"It's a pretty good shot........."
Lydia looked at the filmed video and couldn't help but comment.
"But then again, when you ran out and fell to your knees, I was really scared. I thought your arm was going to be dislocated again."
Jose Badem's half-joking remark was met with a roll of the eyes from Joke.
"Um...can I ask a question here?"
Because the last scene is when Mike’s faith is shattered and he sets himself on fire after lighting all the fireworks in Moon River.
Although he knew this was a filming, Mike still wanted to ask, wouldn't he really light all the gunpowder? What if he didn't run in time, wouldn't he become the roast turkey on the Halloween table?
"You're overthinking it, Mike. How is that possible? Don't worry............."
Don’t forget that Andrew and Carl grew up in that magnificent and mysterious manor!
In other words, since childhood, they have been following various industry leaders to learn all kinds of knowledge and skills.
Not to mention other aspects, just manufacturing an ignition device that can be controlled remotely is a piece of cake for them.
In fact, this seemingly mysterious thing is far less complicated than people imagine.
As long as they are able to successfully create a device that can emit specific radio waves, and at the same time carefully design the receiving device at the other end - so that it has two wires, and the positive and negative poles of these two wires are different, then when the current passes through, small sparks can be easily produced.
Look, it’s so easy to complete such an item!
However, as to whether these weak sparks can successfully ignite the gunpowder...
Oh, please don't be too serious! If you can't light them up in one try, why not try a few more times?
Anyway, we have reached the final climax of the whole story. When we do the subsequent editing, we can just cut out the previous clips that failed to cause the explosion, right?
After all, what the audience expects to see is just the thrilling and shocking grand explosion scene!
"Wait a minute, you guys are going to blow up the Moon River?!"
The novelist almost thought there was something wrong with his ears, and blew this up?! Are they crazy?!
"What does it matter?⊙_⊙"
“Uh….” After being asked by Carl, the novelist seemed to have realized what was going on.
This doesn't seem to be a big problem. Anyway, no matter how damaged this place is, it will be restored to its original state the next morning.
Although the novelist did not understand why Mrs. Bess from another world could have the authority of the manor owner in this world, reason told him not to ask too much.
.................................................. ........................
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, this is the last scene, we'll end it after we finish filming, get ready... start!!!!!!"
.................................................. ........................
“Ahh…hahaha….”
Mike walked dejectedly on the road he had walked countless times before, making a sound that was not sure whether it was crying or laughing.
Everything is fake, the hustle and bustle is not a happy paradise at all, this is hell...
【We all hate that place except you!!!】
Yeah, except for me...I am really too stupid and too self-righteous...
This hell should be destroyed...the noise should be destroyed, and I, the person who came from the noise, should also be destroyed...I am the real original sin, the real murderer! ! ! !
It was all my fault. I was almost able to see Valletta, I was almost able to stop Natalie, I was almost able to hold Joke...
No, earlier, even earlier...
I could have stood in front of Valletta to protect her... I could have stopped Sergei's fist from hitting Natalie... I could have noticed where the bottle of acid that disappeared went...
I didn't do anything.
The biggest mistake I made was...
Did nothing...
"It's all time to end......"
Mike cut the last acrobatic ball. Originally, these acrobatic balls were his good helpers on the stage, but Mike cut them with his own hands.
It's like the turmoil in this place, cutting each of them open, letting the blood and intestines flow out, countless sins are nourishing this place...
The cut juggling ball also symbolizes Mike's memories of this place that he once thought was a beautiful place.
No matter how beautiful the acrobatic ball looks on the outside, when it is cut open by a knife, the inside is nothing but black and smelly gunpowder.
It's all fake.......
"Everything should be over now. Muro is still waiting for me outside..."
Mike said to himself, then struck a match.
"I hope you enjoy it...my friend...the finale from the hustle and bustle..."
