Pokémon's Lord of Fear

Chapter 375 Xiaolin: About the ill-fated relationship between me and Director Teng Shu

"..Tell me, what have you been doing during this period of time?" The day after Daigo went to deal with the water fleet incident, Teng Shu met his old father with a stern look at home. The old father's serious eyes made Teng Shu swallow his saliva.

How did the old father know?
The old butler Shibata silently poured two cups of tea, then quietly retreated, closing the door and leaving the space to the father and son. Teng Shu's face became even uglier when he saw this. He certainly knew the character of his old father. As soon as he saw this posture, he knew that his father was indeed very angry, otherwise he would not be like this.

Teng Shu did not doubt whether it was his brother who betrayed him. After all, this was impossible. Teng Shu knew very well that his eldest brother was always a trustworthy person. Even if it was really his elder brother who said it, he would definitely explain it to Teng Shu. But now his elder brother did not say it, which proved that he did not reveal the information.

"Hehe, I saved the world a little bit." Although he didn't know how the old father knew it, but since the old father had come to him, there was no need to quibble, so Teng Shu explained it very directly.

If you continue to try to hide the truth or play dumb, your father will often become even angrier, so it is not wrong to confess at this time.

The old father's face became even uglier.

He originally didn't know what his younger and older sons were doing. After all, their family never cared about these things. Moreover, as a director, Teng Shu had various things to do every day, and he often went out to shoot movies. Sometimes it was common for him to be away from Changqing City for several months or even half a year.

However, the fact that Teng Shu received the Medal of Fearlessness was still publicized by the Alliance. Although it was not a huge publicity, only a small-scale publicity, but it was obvious that his old father Mu Jin was the target of this small-scale publicity. So Teng Shu was very unlucky and fell into the hands of the Alliance.

The old father Mu Jin also knew how difficult it was to obtain the Medal of Fearlessness, so he instantly realized that the little bastard Teng Shu must have done something behind their backs, otherwise he would not have been able to get the Medal of Fearlessness, so the angry old father came back to hold him accountable.

"Okay! Teng Shu! Am I too old to control you? How dare you not tell me about this kind of thing?!" After hearing what Teng Shu said, the old father's tone suddenly became furious. The corners of Teng Shu's mouth twitched and his face turned bitter. It seemed that he would not have an easy time getting through this hurdle today.

While Teng Shu was being criticized by his old father at home, Zoroak was rushing to the film review department in Kanaz City with a roll of film clips. Zoroak went there to send the original film of "The First Commandment" for review. After the filming of The First Commandment was completed, it had not been reviewed yet. After Teng Shu came back yesterday, he told Zoroak that he wanted to review this matter.

Zoroak had been planning to report more about his work with Teng Shu today, but Teng Shu went home in a hurry not long after arriving at the company, so Zoroak had to come here himself to deliver the original film of "The First Commandment" for review.

Zoroark was quite happy to do this. After all, by doing so, Zoroark could take a break. Each movie review took the time to watch a whole movie, and then these employees would have to discuss it.

Other people's movies don't have this treatment, but Teng Shu's does, so each review of Teng Shu's movies will take a long time. Zoroark can use this time to complete daily game tasks or look up information that his boss may be interested in.

"Eh? Isn't this Zoroark? Are you here to submit a movie for review?" Zoroark had just walked in when he met several enthusiastic employees. After seeing Zoroark, the expressions on their faces were different. Some had subtle expressions, some were gloating, and some looked deathly pale.

"Yes, this is our company's movie "The First Commandment". We forgot to submit it for review before." Zoroak was a little confused, but he didn't think much about it. Instead, he handed over the movie in his hand and spoke politely. Several staff members turned pale, but still resigned themselves to taking the movie in.

Zoroark was a little curious. It had come to deliver something before and these people had different expressions, so Zoroark didn't think much of it then. But this scene was so strange no matter how it looked at it, so it couldn't help but ask about it. Then it learned about this strange rule of the film censorship department in Kanaz City.

".I think you also know that your company's horror films, especially those related to Director Teng Shu, are very scary, so everyone feels that watching Director Teng Shu's movies is a bit torturous." The staff member's tone was very strange. Zoroak wanted to laugh after hearing it, but Zoroak felt that there was nothing wrong with it. After all, the movies shot by his boss were indeed scary.

"But this movie was not actually shot by our boss. Our boss only served as the screenwriter." Zoroark wanted to comfort these unfortunate staff members, but the expression of this staff member became more subtle.

"In fact, we all know that Director Teng Shu is also an excellent screenwriter. Aren't the previous "Call of the Ghost", "Dead Silence" and "The Grudge" all written by Director Teng Shu himself?" The staff member said in a deep tone. Zoroark thought about it and it seemed to be true. So far, none of the scripts written by his boss are of poor quality.

Even the boss of the company had a sudden idea to make a movie to compete for awards, and it has almost secured the Best Picture award. Although director Kirk has brought a wave of thrillers and exciting stories after his comeback, it is still relatively lacking. The boss's "The Truman Show" is obviously more qualified for the grand prize.

"Thank you for your hard work." Zoroark sighed, and the staff shook his head. He was lucky today and didn't need to go to the movies. After all, he had just watched a movie yesterday, so he could be excluded from the draw. But those whose turn it was today were very unlucky, especially Kobayashi, whose luck was extremely bad.

Yesterday it was originally the other party's job to review it, but because Xiaolin's girlfriend came to see Xiaolin, Xiaolin took a leave and was swapped, and it happened to be swapped to today. As a result, who knew that Zoroark would come today? This made the staff member fall into deep thought. Could it be that Xiaolin has some kind of [Director Teng Shu's movie attraction physique], so every time Director Teng Shu's movie is reviewed, Xiaolin is there?

I guess I need to be more careful next time and try to avoid Xiaolin.

Although this thing is praised as metaphysics, sometimes metaphysics is really outrageous. For example, in special jobs like hospitals, people generally reject mangoes and things that sound like busy or fire, because people believe that this will make the hospital's business very good, which is obviously something that no one wants to happen.

".Xiao Lin, have you been unlucky recently?" A familiar movie theater, a few familiar people. The middle-aged uncle looked at Xiao Lin, who was sitting in the theater with an expressionless face, and asked helplessly. After hearing this, Xiao Lin also smiled bitterly.

His girlfriend came to see him yesterday because there was an emergency at home, so Xiao Lin changed shifts. But who would have thought that after changing shifts to today, he would run into the movie directed by Teng Shu. This made Xiao Lin doubt whether his luck was not very good.

You have to know that Director Teng Shu has not made many movies in these years, and the review time for each one is random, at least they themselves don’t know about it, so all this is random, but he can meet Teng Shu every time, it's amazing.

"Well, let's go watch a movie. By the way, Director Teng Shu won the Fearless Medal, so we can relax the film review a little bit." Today's review team leader said this, and Xiaolin and the others were stunned. Fearless Medal? Of course they knew about it, and how difficult it was to obtain it, and even knew some of the privileges it had, but they never thought that they would one day come into contact with the owner of the Fearless Medal. It was outrageous.

"What did Director Teng Shu do to deserve the Medal of Valor?" Many people were thinking.

As the lights were turned off, the plot of the First Commandment began.

The protagonist of the story is a man wearing police uniform, which makes Xiaolin a little surprised. After all, in the eyes of people in the Pokémon world, the profession of police is almost equal to Miss Junsha. But now a man appears? However, Xiaolin is not surprised when he thinks that director Teng Shu likes to create an imaginary world.

Criminal policeman Li Guoqiang, a strange name, but Xiao Lin didn't say anything. He was used to it, and after getting used to it, he found it surprisingly suitable.

During a patrol in an underground parking lot, Li Guoqiang accidentally discovered the true identity of the murderer Chen Fulai. When Chen Fulai was about to attack Li Guoqiang, the corpse of the woman killed by Chen Fulai in the trunk inexplicably resurrected. This weird scene made Xiaolin sit up straight.

Here it comes, it's the familiar taste, the familiar director style of Teng Shu. Although it was not directed by Teng Shu himself, the taste is still so authentic, and the overall style is more inclined to be darker. This made the other employees who originally thought that "it should be okay if it's not shot by Teng Shu" pay attention.

The resurrection of the female corpse distracted Chen Fulai's attention, and Li Guoqiang took the opportunity to shoot and kill Chen Fulai. However, because there were some supernatural phenomena in Li Guoqiang's testimony report that could not be explained by science, his superiors transferred him to the Miscellaneous Affairs Section, which specializes in dealing with supernatural events.

"This boss is such a big eater?" Xiao Lin was a little curious, but didn't think much about it.

In the Miscellaneous Affairs Department, Li Guoqiang met Inspector Huang, who told him that the first commandment of the Miscellaneous Affairs Department was: "There are no ghosts in this world!"

Li Guoqiang was skeptical, but he didn't say anything. He just followed Inspector Huang to handle the case.

When Li Guoqiang first arrived at the General Affairs Department, he received complaints about strange noises coming from the swimming pool. A little girl had drowned in this swimming pool before, making the whole incident even more bizarre. Under the guidance of Officer Huang, Li Guoqiang pulled out a bunch of hair from the drain. It turned out that this was the source of the strange noises in the swimming pool, which initially revealed the existence of supernatural phenomena.

This can be explained scientifically, but it becomes increasingly outrageous afterwards.

They encountered a strange phenomenon with the old lady's TV. The old lady's TV suddenly turned on automatically when no one was around, and played some weird pictures, which made Li Guoqiang very confused and frightened.

There was also a problem with the Pokémon of the administrator in the unmanned theater. During the investigation, Li Guoqiang and Officer Huang discovered that the Pokémon of the theater administrator was behaving abnormally and was later confirmed to be possessed by an evil spirit. In order to prevent the evil spirit from continuing to cause trouble, Officer Huang decisively shot and killed the possessed Pokémon.

This made Li Guoqiang unable to understand.

As the plot progresses, Li Guoqiang discovers that the vengeful spirit of the murderous demon Chen Fulai, who was beaten to death by him, has not dissipated. Instead, it has lurked among the students, triggering a series of suicides among female students.

The girls' weird smiles and their equally weird movements made Xiaolin feel very strange.

This movie doesn't look particularly scary, but there is always a kind of indescribable feeling, which is very strange.

As the film progresses, Li Guoqiang discovers that Chen Fulai's spirit can attach itself to anyone and manipulate their bodies to do whatever he wants.

However, during the pursuit, Li Guoqiang gradually discovered that the identity of Inspector Huang, who had been helping him, was mysterious and seemed to be hiding a secret. Li Guoqiang began to be unable to tell whether Inspector Huang was an enemy or a friend.

It was not until the end that Inspector Huang revealed the truth, that is, the so-called first commandment is actually just a self-deception. There are evil spirits in this world, and these evil spirits can possess people if they want, and they can even possess Pokémon.

All other methods are useless against these evil spirits. The only solution is to kill the evil spirit directly when it possesses the body. The evil spirit will then lose the ability to possess the body and will be trapped in this body for life, rotting along with the body.

In order to get rid of Chen Fulai, Li Guoqiang and Inspector Huang had to come up with a plan, but they failed in the end. Inspector Huang died. Li Guoqiang seemed normal, but he was abnormal everywhere. Finally, the boss appeared. The other party was still eating, and while eating, he asked if there were ghosts in the world. This time, Li Guoqiang said that there were no ghosts in the world.

That's how the movie ends.

Kobayashi sat in silence. He had an indescribable feeling. The movie didn't look particularly scary, but he just had an indescribable sense of discomfort, as if there was something hidden in the movie.
