At this time, Gelaf Martil was still a little sleepless.
His home was near Kleber Square, on a tributary of the Ill River.
Therefore, he is using chat software to communicate with his fiancée Tilda.
Tilda Horstein, she is a German woman, also from Strasbourg. Geralf said in front of John, "I also have many German friends", mainly referring to Tilda.
"I have already met Mr. Li's nephew, who is younger than I thought."
"As for Mr. Li's nephew, I may have met him once." Tilda replied: "I met an oriental youth at the gate of Notre Dame Cathedral, and I am afraid it is him."
The so-called Notre Dame Cathedral is of course not the church in Hugo's "Notre Dame de Paris", but only the Gothenburg Square in Strasbourg, which is also a typical Gothic architecture. Gothic architecture itself originated in France, and is even called "French style". Most of them are Catholic church buildings. One of their biggest features is that they often have multiple spires. Cologne Cathedral in Germany and Westminster Cathedral in England etc. are typical examples. The Notre Dame Cathedral in Gothenburg Square, as a Gothic building, also has some characteristics different from other Catholic churches, but these have nothing to do with movies, and no actors have studied them specifically.
But Geralf has a different idea. He believes that since "The Nittler Family" is closely related to the Middle Ages and religious culture, it is necessary to add some knowledge in this area, and Westerners are relatively good at this point. The role of Geraph is definitely not a secondary role, so no matter what, it must be played well, at least it must not be defeated by NG.
"Notre Dame Cathedral? How do you know it's Mr. Li's nephew?"
"At that time, I saw an oriental young man coming to the church. His image and temperament made me feel that he was not like a Strasbourg person at all. And I once heard him speak... and he did not have a typical Alsatian accent .”
Strasbourg itself is the capital of Alsace, but this city has been constantly contested by Germany and France in history. It can be said that people in this place have long cared little about whether they are German or French. Alsatian itself has a very different pronunciation from French, which is influenced by long historical changes. In fact, it belongs to the Germanic language family, so for Strasbourg people, it is necessary to It is too easy to tell whether the other party is a real Strasbourg person from the pronunciation.
"So you greeted him?"
"No." Tilda typed this line: "I always feel that I don't like him."
"Um?"
"It's an indescribable feeling. If I have to say it, I always feel that he will bring something ominous to our city."
"Tilda, what kind of premonition is that?"
"I don't know... I always feel that way. Forget it..." Tilda no longer struggled with this question: "Then, he agrees to the time capsule?"
"Well, I think he should come and witness."
"Are you a witness? Are you sure you really want him to come?"
"What do you mean by that, Tilda?"
"I always feel that there is no need for people from the Li family to intervene in this."
Geralph was silent.
After a long time, he typed that line.
"Is it because of the advice from the Phyllis family to your parents?"
"You can understand that. The Phyllis family is one of the oldest families in Strasbourg. You should also know that this family is rumored to be an exorcist, right? I firmly believe that is the truth."
Tilda herself is a Christian, but she does not believe in Catholicism, but Protestantism, the word Protestantism comes from the German Protestanten (meaning protesters). To the Chinese, the difference between Catholicism and Christianity may not even be clear, but to Europeans it is quite different. The emergence of Protestantism was a new denomination that split from the Holy See after the Reformation of Martin Luther, a Catholic Augustinian priest in the 16th century. As mentioned before, Catholicism, Orthodox Church and Protestantism are the three major denominations of Christianity, among which Catholicism was the first to be born. In 1054, the Roman Empire was split into the Eastern and Western Roman Empires, and the Church of the Eastern Roman Empire became the Orthodox Church, and then 16 Centuries separated by Martin Luther. Protestantism is divided into Lutherans, Calvinists and Anglicans. Tilda, on the other hand, was a Lutheran, a belief passed down from her ancestors. In fact, the Phyllis family used to be Catholics, but later converted to Protestantism for unknown reasons.
"Although that is said, it is a long time ago. For me, the horror stories that happened before I was born are still too exaggerated."
"Do you think it's a horror story?" Tilda continued. "I don't think so at all."
"But I have already talked to the other party, and Mr. John also expressed his willingness to witness the opening of the time capsule seventy years ago."
"I know, I'm just talking. When I saw him today, I actually felt a little dazed..."
"Trance?"
"His brother. Actually, I don't think they look alike at all, but for some reason, I always feel that they have some similarities."
"So... John's brother lived in Strasbourg for a long time."
"Actually, I feel that there is something weird about his brother."
"For example?"
"He said that he had never been to Strasbourg before, and he was not from Alsace, but he spoke Alsatian fluently, and I even felt that the accent was a bit old. But what made me feel uncomfortable What is comfortable is that every time his younger brother sees the statue of Jesus in front of the church, he always has a very uncomfortable look in his eyes. It is hard for me to describe, but I feel that his eyes at that time make people feel... "
"You haven't told me this before."
"I don't feel the need to say anything."
"It's getting late. If you have something to do, let's talk about it tomorrow."
On the other end of the chat software, a pair of slender hands typed "Okay, good night" on the keyboard, and then shut down the computer.
Tilda... No, her real name is—Zero Silfelice. Actors at 19th Degrees Cinema in Hell. However, she and Yu Shuo hadn't officially met yet, but they had greeted each other tacitly.
"Tilda? Are you still up?"
There were voices outside.
"come in."
The door was opened. It was an oriental woman who walked into the door.
"Patricia, what's the matter?" Leno slowly rocked the swivel chair in front of the computer and turned around, looking at the oriental woman who opened the door and walked in.
The woman with an oriental face named Patricia, wearing a purple pajamas and hugging a pillow, could not be more clear about the meaning.
"I'm scared... can't sleep..."
According to the setting of the plot, Patricia is Tilda's older sister, but a half-sister. Patricia's mother is of Chinese descent, and she married into the Hosterin family with her when she married Tilda's father.
As for Patricia's actor, although he can be regarded as a first-line actor, he is actually not well-known in Hell's Twenty Degrees Cinema. Her name is Wen Yufan, and she is an actress at Thirteen Degrees Cinema where Demon Hunter Ye Xiang works. And she, the one who the Marquis gave the Nightmare Curse Symbiosis, possesses a terrifying spiritual talent.
Although Patricia is said to be Tilda's older sister, her personality is completely different from Tilda's. Of course, it may be because Patricia is of Chinese descent, while Tilda has half German ancestry. However, the relationship between the two sisters is still very good.
"Are you having nightmares again?"
Through the word "again", Leno is enough to deduce a lot of information. I'm afraid Patricia will be an important character. In fact, as Wen Yufan is a first-line actor, it is impossible to assign her an ordinary role.
"En." Wen Yufan shook his head violently. But to be honest, with her physique, dreams can be decided by herself, and she even has nightmares in the movie, which is enough to prove the horror of Hell Cinema, and any curses may be insignificant to the movie itself.
"Okay, let's sleep together then."
Sha Luo and Wen Yufan fell asleep together after turning off the lights. Of course, script information will also be used to communicate during this process.
"Have you found it?" Wen Yufan asked impatiently: "The connection between the Hosterin family and the Felice family? And the Li family..."
"I checked some letters, but basically I didn't find much useful. The descendants of the Phyllis family left Strasbourg not long ago."
"That's it... I don't know what the Fesley family said to the Hosterin family before."
"However, it is certain that the Felice family is an extremely old family in Strasbourg. Although they were once conferred titles by the German emperor, in fact, the Felice family does not know whether they are of French or German descent. However, it is certain that Yes, the Felice family is dissatisfied with Alsace being incorporated into French territory."
"This... How do you know this?"
"Map. In the photos taken by our 'parents' in Felice's house in the photo album, it is obviously a photo after World War II, but the map in it shows that Alsace does not belong to the territory of France."
"Why don't they want Alsace to be part of France?"
It can be said that Wen Yufan has a blind eye to European history. In fact, most Chinese people probably don’t understand this kind of history. They probably know the Alsace region because of the Dude’s "The Last Lesson" that they learned when they were students. " mentioned that the Alsace-Lorraine region of France was ceded to Prussia because of its failure in the Franco-Prussian War in 1871. Wen Yufan also only vaguely remembered the text he had learned before. Even her only concept of Alsace is probably the Lich King of World of Warcraft.
“For profound historical reasons, Strasbourg can be said to be a microcosm of the Alsace region, showing the mixed French and German situation, and the Alsace people’s lack of belonging to the fact that they are French. French people also have a strange way of thinking about the Alsace region. Because this region has been contested by Germany and France for many years, it has no autonomy. For people in this country, the "motherland" may be very strange Words. Therefore, the idea of hoping that the Alsace region becomes an autonomous region and even merged into German territory was born."
"how come… "
"It's normal. Alsace originally belonged to the Grand Duchy of Burgundy in the Holy Roman Empire. Before 1618, Alsace had always spoken German. So..."
"Forget it, it's just a horror movie, I don't want to take history lessons." Wen Yufan continued to ask: "Has the actor of Fallen Star not appeared yet?"
"Not yet. However, it should appear soon."
And... Leo believes that that period of history is probably related to this movie.
Regarding Nittler's nationality, all the information is kept secret, and it is not known which country he belongs to. And combined with Damimona's proficient "Alsatian accent"...
Nittler, are you from Alsace? Or... is his hometown in Strasbourg
This kind of thing is not impossible. In fact, Alsace belongs to the diocese, and the religious culture of this place has a long history, just look at the countless churches in Strasbourg. If Nittler had been born in this place, he would probably have followed the path of believing in Catholicism and eventually becoming a clergyman. And the Felice family has the idea of making the Alsace region independent, what does this prove
Right now...
Leno suddenly heard some slightly strange voices.
"Patricia, did you hear something?"
"Huh?" Wen Yufan was immersed in thinking, when he heard what Sara said, he quickly turned over and listened attentively.
The sound seemed like something was knocking on the window.
Leno lifted off the quilt, put on her slippers, and walked to the window. Outside her window, it was very close to the window of another house, less than ten meters away.
At this time, she saw the window of another window open.
There is a man standing in front of the window.
The man was Moody Arsen, a man in his fifties, and Tilda's neighbor. The Arsens and Horstins are on good terms, and Modi treats Tilda like a niece. Of course, he is also played by an actor.
It is said that there is no role for Mr. Modi in the script at this time!
At this moment, Modi was standing in front of the window in a daze, and he hit the window with his head strangely!
Sara first let herself show a surprised expression, and then stretched out her hand and placed it in front of her eyes. There was a gap between the index finger and middle finger, and Mr. Modi was in the gap between the fingers.
Then, she put her hand down, and before her eyes, she actually entered Mr. Modi's house, standing in front of him who was hitting the window!
"What's the matter with you, Mr. Maudie?"
Yu Shuo in front of the window also looked at Leo in astonishment. Is this the cursed thing of the space system? Could it be that the scenes that appear in the gap can be easily teleported there
In fact, for the "Magic Queen" Shaluo, this was nothing more than a trick. In her heyday, she was far more terrifying than she is now.
"What's wrong with you? Uncle Audi?"
Audi, who hit the window, had already begun to bleed from his forehead. Then he looked at Sha Luo, his face was already pale and gloomy.
At this moment, Leo had realized something.
At this time, she looked towards the dark corner of the room.
Sara raised her hand again.
The darkness in front of me, all the shadows, were automatically dispelled! In a certain corner, the true face of the hidden object was revealed (this ability is enough to manipulate the life and death of the shadow mage Mo Niansheng, but Mo Niansheng still doesn't know this)!
A gigantic…
bat!
