"Squirrel Street? The dirtiest street in Nolan? I don't want you to be kidding me..."
The efficiency of the owl messenger was astonishingly fast, and Mrs. Caesar's reply speed was so fast that Joshua was a little surprised.
Just as Josh was about to get on the carriage back to the Hearthstone Tavern, an owl landed on Josh's shoulder with its letter.
The content of the letter was that Mrs. Caesar had doubts about the location of Joshua's filming.
The reputation of Squirrel Street is not good in Nolan, but at least curious spellcasters will often come to this street to communicate with aliens.
But the outsiders are different, especially the nobles of other countries, most of them have a skeptical attitude towards aliens.
Qiao Xiu originally thought that the female head of the Blackwood Duke family of Farosi would not have any prejudice against foreign races, after all, the Blackwood family cooperated with the forest elves all the year round.
But it seems that the bad reputation of Squirrel Street itself makes Mrs. Caesar reluctant to let the Black Swan troupe come here to perform collectively.
"Go to Nolan's downtown."
Mrs. Caesar's letter made Joe change his mind about returning to Hearthstone.
In fact, it is the best choice to build a scene specially for "This Devil Is Not Too Cold", but the scene of the movie is not just a match, it needs professional staff to do it.
Maybe an architect can make a beautiful house, but the stale and cluttered atmosphere of the scenes in the movie is not something that can be created deliberately.
Joshua was very fond of the hotel called the Black Dove, so he had to go to the Farosi Mansion first and use the script to convince Mrs. Caesar.
"That female knight is still with us."
Ciri whispered in Josh's ear, and at the same time glanced at the street called the Black Dove Hotel.
Messi, who was wearing a Crusader armor, stood very conspicuously on this street full of aliens. The female knight did not seem to conceal her stalking purpose, and followed Joshua for nearly half of Nolan.
Therefore, the Crusader's behavior is really upright, and even the tracking is upright.
Fortunately, as a senior crusader, Messiah's physical strength is many times stronger than that of the caster, and she can run with the carriage for several hours without even breathing.
"About this...let me think."
Joshua waved to Messi, who had been staring at him.
"Hey! It's tiring to see you running with the carriage, do you want to sit together?"
"impossible!"
In the face of Joshua's kindness, the female knight once again attributed it to the demon's conspiracy and categorically refused. It seems that Joshua's previous experience of pitting her several times has left a deep psychological shadow on her.
"That's what she said, so we can just ignore it."
Joshua got into the carriage, and Ciri followed, but facing Joshua's attitude towards which female knight, Ciri really didn't know what to say.
"If someone followed me like that, I'd find an alley to knock her out and ask her who sent her."
Ciri opened the curtains of the carriage and stared at the female knight standing by the street.
"Don't worry, I don't want you to have a chance for a long time. Whether you can beat Ciri is still a question."
Joshua looked at the roof of a house on Squirrel Street. The moment Joshua looked at the roof, a slowly falling black feather seemed to imply that some birds flew over Joshua's head.
"That female knight? Well... I'm definitely not an opponent."
Ciri is still a little self-aware of his own combat effectiveness.
"You can't beat me to help you." Joshua said.
…
Two hours later, in the central city of Nolan, the Falosi Mansion.
When Qiao Xiu arrived at the mansion full of nature again, it was almost dusk.
There were also two more guards with swords at the door of Farosi Mansion. When Joshua approached, they invariably put their hands on the hilt of the sword around their waists.
"Just let me know that a filmmaker wants to meet your Duchess."
Joshua showed the badge of Duke Blackwood. After seeing the badge, the two guards looked at each other, and one of them immediately walked into the mansion.
After just a few minutes, the middle-aged butler slowly walked out of the mansion.
"Mr. Joshua, I didn't expect you to visit here at this time..."
This middle-aged housekeeper was the housekeeper that Qiao Xiu met when he came to the mansion last time. He took Qiao Xiu into the mansion. After a period of notice, Qiao Xiu finally met Mrs. Caesar, the owner of the mansion. .
This time, Qiao Xiu was in a study, and Mrs. Caesar's dress changed from a grand dress to a corset dress.
"I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation as to why the cast of Black Swan went to the squalid places like Squirrel Street to film."
When Joshua stepped into the study, the duchess went straight to the subject and asked the doubts she had written in the letter.
"Because that's what I need for my next movie, Mrs. Nishizawa, and it's not like it's a stage show. . . beautiful."
Qiao Xiu thought about it for a while and could only give a good word to describe it. The way of performing the stage play was too exaggerated in Qiao Xiu's opinion, and it was so exaggerated that it was not real at all, whether it was from the costumes of the actors, the setting and the way of reciting the words. .
Just talking empty words can't convince anyone. Joshua took out part of the movie script of "This Devil Is Not Too Cold", and put some impressions drawn by Ciri on the desk.
"Mrs. Caesar, this is the script for the next movie. You can judge whether you are eligible for your Black Swan Troupe."
Mrs. Caesar picked up the script on the desk. This was what she wanted the most. Originally, she thought that if Joshua couldn't write a script that she was satisfied with, she would change the most well-known stage play script of Faloxi into a movie. Josh came to shoot.
But since Qiao Xiu confidently put the script in front of her, then she will see what kind of story this young man brings.
When I first saw the cover of the script, Mrs. Caesar's first impression was that the script, like "Beauty and the Devil", seemed to be a fairy tale.
But Mrs. Caesar hopes that Joshua can write something different... And the script of "This Devil is Not Too Cold" is indeed very similar to the "different" script that Mrs. Caesar imagined.
Killers, magic addiction, the struggle between the underground associations, the shady secrets of the Dharma defenders...
Etc. These words should have appeared on a stage full of art and elegance, but this movie is different, it is full of these elements from the dark side of the world.
Taking the encounter between a demon slayer and a little girl as a clue, to a certain extent, the dark and unspeakable things are revealed.
