Alien world

Chapter 1393 27. Premiere of "The Truman Show"

Even now, after being impacted by the magic images, Catalina still has considerable fame and is besieged by fans whenever she travels.

So she dressed up in disguise on the day when "The Truman Show" was released and invited her only sister out.

There was still some time before the premiere, so she first came to the bank on the commercial street and lined up.

"Is that guy named Annan really so amazing?" asked my good friend Jira curiously.

Katerina was like a completely different person when she came back, she had never seen her talk about anything other than acting before.

"You haven't seen him?"

"No, I happened to be at my mother's when he came to Huadu."

"You'll know when you see it."

"Okay, okay -"

After waiting in line for more than ten minutes, the two finally entered the bank, only to find that there were even more people in the hall.

Fortunately, there was a VIP passage nearby with a sign saying "Hundred-gold customers please come here to process". Catalina and Jira walked over and the receptionist led them to an independent lounge. As the door closed, the noise was blocked out.

The pretty female employee in a decent uniform asked, "Ladies, are you here to deposit or withdraw money?"

"Save money."

The magic ring on Catalina's index finger flashed slightly, and a wooden box appeared in front of her.

"Please help me count how much there is," Katerina said. She rarely needed to spend money, so she saved all the pocket money her father gave her.

"OK, just a second."

The bank employee took out a pair of gloves and put them on, then opened the cash box in front of the two of them and started counting the money.

She stacked the coins in piles of one hundred gold coins each, making five and a half piles in total.

"Wow, you have so many?" exclaimed Jira.

She exchanged her money for beautiful and delicious things...

After the third count, the female employee said, "The total is five hundred and fifty-two Kinnars. How much do you want to deposit?"

"All of them."

It's useless for Catalina to have the money. If it doesn't work, she can still spend Jira's.

"Five hundred and fifty-two kinaers, with an annual interest rate of five percent. Even if you withdraw your money before the full year, you can still receive interest based on the number of days you have deposited it."

“So many? Then I too…” Since Jira didn’t have a magic ring, she took off her earrings and handed them over.

The female employee politely declined, "Sorry, the bank only accepts coins for now."

"Okay... You don't even have anyone to do the appraisal?"

"The bank is just starting out, and many things are not perfect. We will convey your suggestions to the director." The female employee explained and looked at Katerina: "Dear customer, you can choose a gift."

"I want to see your president."

"OK, just a second."

The female employee took off her gloves, put five and a half stacks of gold coins into the magic ring, and left the lounge.

Not long after, a young and beautiful woman came in, who even Jira couldn't help but take a few more glances at.

"Hello, ladies. I am the president of Huadu Savings Bank. How can I help you?"

"I am a friend of your city lord." Katerina took off her hood and placed an envelope on the table: "Please give this to him. It is very important. You'd better take a look at it too."

The young bank president's surprise showed that he recognized Katerina. He took the envelope, opened it, glanced at it, and said solemnly, "Thank you for your notice. I'll have someone send it to Liberty City right away."

She looked at Catalina carefully. She was young, beautiful, famous, and claimed to be Lord Annan's friend...

Then she asked the staff to prepare a gift and also a small gift for Jira.

The gift to Katrina was a parchment deposit slip with a picture of Rose and Jack embracing each other. Katrina and Lord Annan did look like a good match, but unfortunately, the young president was a staunch supporter of "Annan and Evelyn".

The gift given to Jira was a sachet. In addition, the young president also gave Katerina a business card.

Next time she has something to do, she can ask her subordinates to come to her with her business card.

After Catalina put on her cloak, the young president led them out and walked them all the way to the door of the savings bank.

After watching them leave, the young president withdrew his gaze and scanned the crowded and noisy hall.

If Miss Katerina's information is accurate, it means that the people sent by the Southern Alliance members are now in the hall...

……

"Is this the magic image you were talking about?"

As a noble lady, she was naturally at the forefront of fashion. Of course, Jira had also seen magical films, and like all boys and girls, "The Fall of the Mage Tower" and "Cross Stoker's Dracula" were her favorites.

As soon as they arrived, they saw the eighth giant poster on the outer wall of the theater - it was a bright smiling face, but it was a giant portrait made up of countless portraits.

"He is Mr. Faru Barros." Catalina said, looking up at the poster.

Jira, who was playing with the sachet, looked up. It was a pity that he was not a handsome guy.

She felt that Annan had clearly taken the wrong path. Why did he always take pictures of other people? When that face appeared on the curtain, people would be willing to pay...

Catalina, who had already obtained a VIP ticket in advance, walked through the long queue waiting for tickets, walked straight into the theater, and sat in the first row.

The two audience members sitting in the second row behind me seemed to be fans of Annan, and were guessing what type of magical image "The Truman Show" was.

"The Truman Show is obviously a place name."

"Why can't it be a world with a man called Truman?"

"Bettar's redemption is not the redemption of a person named Bettar."

"What you said makes sense..."

Then the two of them started discussing where the place called Truman was.

Katerina listened, feeling a little amused and a little nervous.

She believed in Mr. Faru Barros, but was worried that he might not be able to perform to his full potential because of nervousness.

The theater hall was soon filled with people, and as the lights dimmed, the whispers disappeared.

The familiar blue planet logo appeared on the black curtain.

Amid the soothing music, a bright seaside town appears before the audience.

"Is this Liberty City?" Kira asked in a low voice.

“No, but The Truman Show was indeed filmed in Liberty City.”

In the picture, Truman, played by Faro, goes out to work and actively greets his neighbors and passers-by. There is also a golem standing at the intersection to maintain order.

"Wow, this golem is so beautiful..." Jira exclaimed.

"This is the princess."

Katerina and Truman in the video said in unison.

Katerina was slightly stunned, while "Truman" was still telling the story of the princess to the tourists.

Kira was a girl who only cared about looks, but she had to admit that Katerina's teacher really brought Truman to life.

Two hours passed in a flash. When Truman finally stood behind the fake wall of sky, in front of the real exit, he saluted the audience in the theater outside the curtain and said, "If I never see you again, good morning, good afternoon and good night", the audience all stood up and gave warm applause as if they had watched a perfect stage play.

Jira shook her: "Oh my God, Katerina, this is simply your life! That Annan is not confessing his love to you, it's so romantic..."
