Conan: Death is Watching Me

Chapter 26 Murderer Gao Mo
"Feel sorry."

Kogoro Maori shrank his legs to avoid the camera and stood with Yoko Okino's agent Eiichi Yamagishi, while not forgetting to cheer Gao Mo up.

"Come on, Kido-chan, don't get stage fright!"

"Come on, Mr. Kido!"

"Come on, Kido-nii!"

Xiaolan and the others also shouted nervously. Nachi, who had already changed his clothes and was ready to make a grand appearance, suddenly looked gloomy and was very dissatisfied with himself for not being the focus.

"You're just a supporting role, why are you so arrogant?" Nachi turned his anger towards Gao Mo, snorted coldly, and entered the camera first after the clapperboard clicked shut.

He is not just an ordinary handsome idol, because he specializes in the field of TV dramas and is second to none in the field of handsome guys.

Compared to Gao Mo's bearded murderer, he is more attractive no matter how you look at him.

and……

Nachi smiled obscurely.

Gao Mo, who was performing for the first time after retiring from the screen, certainly couldn't get into the role quickly, so he only needed to use some tricks to make Gao Mo fail.

One or two NGs will not affect the shooting progress, but it can cause Gao Mo to be scolded by the supervisor and lose face.

"call!"

As the performance went on, Nachi followed the script and put incense money into the shrine and worshiped sincerely. He was thinking about how to deal with Gao Mo, but he suddenly felt a chill on his back, as if someone was blowing air on his neck.

I waited patiently for a while, but no one took the role - the murderer played by Gao Mo was supposed to be robbing with a gun at this time.

"What are you doing..."

Nachi, who thought he was being fooled, turned around angrily and wanted to complain to the supervisor, but his vision was suddenly occupied by the face of a sinister bearded man.

His calm and indifferent eyes made him look like a lion or tiger facing its prey.

Always behind me.

At this moment, Nazhi even forgot that he was filming. He froze in shock, feeling a chill in his lower body. "Don't, don't kill me!"

"Shh!"

Gao Mo tapped Nachi's pale cheek with a prop gun, feeling like a new world had opened up.

It’s actually quite interesting to play the villain role.

"Don't talk, just take out the money!"

"Yes Yes……"

In a panic, Nachi forgot to act. After taking out his wallet tremblingly, he fell to the ground. It was not until he heard the sound of "card" in his ear that he suddenly reacted.

It turned out that the bearded man played by Gao Mo snatched the wallet, ending the filming of the first scene.

"Very good, Kido," the director said, beaming from ear to ear. "Great acting, and Nachi's performance was also good, exceptional, very realistic!"

"Of course, my handsome boy Nachi Shingo's acting skills..."

Nachi's face looked unnatural. When he was about to get up, he suddenly froze and clamped his thighs together without leaving any trace.

"Director, I'm not feeling well. Can we shoot the second scene later?"

"Okay, then let's finish filming Kido's scenes first, and try to wrap up Kido's filming before tonight." The supervisor seemed to have found a treasure, and the more he looked at Gao Mo's bearded look, the more he liked it.

The aura of that murderer and gangster was simply amazing, and even made him feel that he was wasted.

It takes real dedication to play a supporting role like this.

……

The first day of filming went very smoothly, and everyone except Shingo Nachi was very happy.

With Yoko Okino accidentally killing Shingo Nachi's character, the filming that day ended perfectly at dusk.

"thanks everyone."

The director, holding a towel, looked at Kogoro Mouri who was circling around Yoko.

"How's it going, Mr. Maori? Is there anything you need to add?"

"Additionally... the script is already perfect, especially Ms. Yoko's performance." The mustache man only had eyes for Okino Yoko. "This play will be a rare masterpiece!"

"All of this is thanks to Mr. Maori for being willing to be our advisor."

"That's right. It's only because of the famous detective Maori Kogoro that things are going so smoothly. This drama will continue to benefit from Maori-sensei's influence!"

“No, no…Ahahahaha!”

The small pavilion of the shrine.

Gao Mo was removing his makeup with the help of Douyuan Taeko. Hearing the smug voice of Xiao Huzi, he wanted to complain just like Conan beside him. Only this guy liked to take other people's compliments seriously and couldn't tell that they were just polite words.

But he is also very happy here.

After the character's scenes were finished, the glowing text that had been silent for a few days reappeared.

[Career Achievement: First appearance in a TV series, rewarded 1 star]

Unexpectedly, there was a small surprise.

In addition to cases, the profession itself actually has star-level rewards. Although not much, it adds new possibilities for obtaining them.

Including previous accumulations, the storage pool already has 12 stars.

I haven't fully mastered the "Shooting Guide" yet, but I have already got the stars.

Only 8 stars and 3 professional roles are needed to reach actor level 2.

He had also looked at the additional conditions for upgrading to Detective Level 2, which was to master a Level 4 detective book. It was too difficult, and it was not an urgent upgrade, so he didn't need to consider it for the time being.

Unless he included the combat profession, his best option would be to concentrate all his resources to attack the actors.

……

"Ah hahaha!"

A strange laugh suddenly sounded behind Gao Mo. It turned out to be the photographer An Xi who came to pack up his equipment. The skull watch on his left wrist kept beeping.

Douyuan Taeko, who was still helping Gao Mo remove his makeup, was suddenly startled and her body straightened up like a frightened rabbit.

"It's the alarm on my watch," Anxi said, showing it off. "It's an interesting sound, isn't it? I bought it when I went to the States last month."

Mameko Douyuan lowered her head with a look of fear on her face, and her fingers clenched even tighter.

After removing the makeup, Gao Mo was still thinking of asking Douyuan Taeko for advice on makeup techniques, but he saw her walk to Anxi and seemed to say something. Anxi had a smug expression on her face.

I always feel that this photographer Anxi is looking for death.

If a murder really happens, this guy will be the first to die.

And the murderer...

Gao Mo looked calmly at Mameko Douyuan who was happily greeting her fiancé Shimazaki Yuji.

Is this the makeup artist?
"Brother Kido!" Conan tugged at the corner of Gao Mo's clothes with his little hand, "Look over there!"

Gao Mo looked in the direction he was going and found that Anxi had found Nachi Shingo, who had just changed his bloodstained clothes.

The show-off man also looked terrified, and his behavior was even more exaggerated than that of Mamegaki Taeko.

I don't know what they said, but they walked towards the grove behind the shrine together.

"This guy……"

Gao Mo frowned slightly. Anxi seemed to notice him and licked his lips at him before entering the grove, his eyes full of mockery as if he were a fat sheep.

This kind of person is just a trouble maker.

Even if it were placed outside the Conan world, the results would probably not be much better.

"Thank you for your hard work, Kido!"

The director brought Yoko's agent Eiichi Yamagishi to the small pavilion to pay the agreed-upon remuneration, and also had some intention of recruiting her.

"Have you ever considered coming back? I can work with you on my next drama. The role of Nimaime should be no problem. I happen to have a crime-themed script."

Yamagishi Eiichi was also quite interested.

He only has Yoko Okino under his command now, so he can definitely take Gao Mo under his wing.

Judging from his performance just now, there is no problem in making a comeback. Maybe he can return to his previous heights or even stand higher.

It just so happens that Gao Mo and Yoko have a good relationship...

"I'm not planning a comeback," Gao Mo shook his head and refused. "For now, I'm just planning to play minor roles, some marginal roles where I won't show my face or be named."

Unless you possess the incredible makeup skills of the Conan world, and can completely transform yourself like Vermouth and create a new vest...

There was no chance of him showing himself in public at the moment.

"Not coming back?"

The supervisor and Yamagishi Eiichi couldn't understand it and could only assume that Gao Mo was still suffering from the hurt of the past.

"Okay then, but don't go back tonight. We're staying at the Rice Flower Hotel next door, and there's a party tonight."
