Because the crew had been announced in advance, their arrival did not cause much commotion.

　　But curiosity is still there – before the crew arrived in Nanhong, you could hear people talking about this topic everywhere you went. After the crew arrived, the latest situation was reported in real time anytime and anywhere.

　　Shen Chu fell on Xie Shiming, looking like a wilted salted fish.

　　”You have to protect me later.”

　　”Um.”

　　”My second brother loved to pinch my face and my belly when I was little. He even spanked me!”

　　”I’m so miserable. He abused me when I was a kid.”

　　Xie Shiming thought about it carefully and felt that when Shen Yi was a child, he was more likely to be angry…

　　”Although I don’t have a belly now, you can’t spank my butt or pinch my face. If you let him pinch you, he’ll spank you then.”

　　Xie Shiming: “…”

　　”Um?”

　　Shen Chu turned around and glared at him: “You are my accomplice.”

　　”You concealed the truth and did not report it, which is an even greater crime!”

　　Xie Shiming: “Okay, all right.”

　　Qi Yuansi couldn’t bear to watch it anymore –

　　”Old Xie, you’re just going to let him bully you like this?! Where’s your self-respect? Where’s your dignity as a man?!”

　　”Why, are you jealous?”

　　”Why are you jealous? I have a brother too!”

　　Shen Chu stretched out his hand and made the number “four”: “I have so many.”

　　Qi Yuansi: “…”

　　Why does this scene seem familiar?

　　”But then again, your brother is in the same crew as my second brother? Haven’t they been at odds since childhood?”

　　Shen Chu touched his chin and asked, “When will we have a good relationship like you and your brother?”

　　”Ah? Are they close? My brother said he joined this crew because the director is Xu Ronghua.”

　　Qi Yuansi looked at Shen Chu, then at Xie Shiming, and then back again——

　　”By the way, I’ve been wanting to ask you for a long time, why don’t you call Old Xie ‘Fourth Brother’? Wasn’t he born more than half an hour earlier than you?”

　　”You call the other brothers Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, but you only call Lao Xie, Brother.”

　　”Because he was only born half an hour earlier, and the word ‘four’ sounds so ugly.” Shen Chu emphasized.

　　Qi Yuansi: “Is that so?”

　　”What else?”

　　Shen Chu scratched his chin, thinking that he couldn’t say that he had been calling him that since he was a child. At first, he wanted to tease the young Xie Shiming, right? As a result, he called him that and it became a habit. Would it be too deliberate to change it now?

　　Besides, calling him brother is funny, and calling him fourth brother is just letting Xie Shiming take advantage of him!

　　He won’t do it!

　　Shen Chu nodded in agreement in his heart.

　　Well, I will definitely not change it.

　　…

　　The crew filmed on the playground.

　　The main plot of the high school period in the memories takes place here, so some students are needed to act as extras.

　　Xu Ronghua is still the same personality, demanding “truth” in everything and being very picky.

　　Long before the actors arrived, he had people come to set up the scene. Although there is a high school plot, this time he was shooting a suspense film. The scenes in the memories mainly took place on the high school playground, and they were extremely conflicting plot points.

　　A sprinkler truck was called to the playground, and there will be artificial rainfall soon.

　　”Ask someone to come and hand out some umbrellas to the students who are participating in the group performance, so that they won’t get wet in the rain.”

　　Although the crew only required students who were in physical education classes to come during the filming, people are curious. What’s more, in addition to physical education classes, there are also breaks, and now is exactly the break time, so there was still a circle of students surrounding the playground.

　　Since I can’t sign up to be an extra, it’s okay to just watch people during the break.

　　Anyway, we have to join in the fun.

　　Qi Yuanan glanced at the group and said, “They are our juniors after all. Do you think they are here to see you or me?”

　　Shen Yi snorted and laughed: “You couldn’t beat me when we were in school, but you can beat me now?”

　　”Of course most people come to see me.”

　　”Hey, why can’t they come to see me?”

　　Cheng Manxin expressed her dissatisfaction: “I am much better looking than you two!”

　　”And where are your two younger brothers?”

　　”Isn’t it time for get out of class? Why don’t they come find you two?”

　　Qi Yuanan raised his phone and said, “We’ll meet soon. My brother said he has signed up for an extra role. It just so happens that when we start shooting, their class has physical education class. I mentioned it to Director Xu before. When Director Xu heard it was Xiao Si, he said he would help him find a role with lines.”

　　”Director Xu?”

　　Cheng Manxin was a little surprised: “Director Xu knows your brother?”

　　”Not only does he know my brother, he also knows his two younger brothers.”

　　Qi Yuanan gave Cheng Manxin some basic knowledge about the time when their two younger brothers went to film Director Xu’s movie when they were young.

　　”What? He’s still playing a little girl? The kind that wears a little skirt?!”

　　Cheng Manxin immediately pulled Shen Yi along.

　　”It’s a long time ago, so it’s not easy to find stills right now.”

　　”Do you two have any photos on your phones? There must be some, show me!”

　　Shen Yi complained to her: “You also said it happened a long time ago…”

　　”Then just tell me whether you have it or not!”

　　“…”

　　Is there any?

　　Of course!

　　Since Cheng Manxin could search for it online, it wouldn’t be a big deal to show Cheng Manxin the stills of her brother when he was a child.

　　So Shen Yi and Qi Yuanan looked at each other and took out their phones at the same time –

　　”Look at my brother first!”

　　”My brother is cuter than his brother!”

　　Cheng Manxin: “…”

　　This kind of comparison and showing off of children…wasn’t it the time when you rolled your eyes at me before?!

　　…

　　”What?!”

　　”Director Xu is still assigning lines for us? We’re going to be on camera later?!”

　　Shen Chu wanted to go up and pinch Qi Yuansi: “Then why didn’t you say so earlier!”

　　”It’s not too late to tell you now, right?”

　　As they were talking, they had already arrived at the playground.

　　Qi Yuansi originally wanted to drag Shen Chu and Xie Shiming to find their brother, but when they arrived, the filming was just about to start.

　　The leading actor is definitely the busiest, and the only people who can connect with the others who have signed up for extras are the crew members. So before I could even find my brother, he was pulled away by the crew members, who said they would just briefly explain the plot first and they would just make a simple appearance later.

　　”You guys just need to hold an umbrella and walk past the leading actor, stand there for a while, and then say a few lines.”

　　”The camera won’t capture your faces. Even if it does, it will be blurred. Don’t worry about that. But be careful not to block the lead actor’s shot. Remember your positions… There are two more people who need to speak lines. The director said it’s already been decided. Which two are they—”

　　“Me, me, me!”

　　Qi Yuansi raised his hand and looked at Shen Chu and Xie Shiming.

　　He was the one who contacted his brother, and he was the first one to confirm. As for the other one, who should he recommend to speak the lines…

　　Qi Yuansi chuckled twice and pointed at Shen Chu——

　　”The other one is him.”

　　”Sister, can you please give my classmate a role with more lines? He is a fan of a star.”

　　…

　　Shen Yi is the protagonist of this movie, a rich second-generation boy who suffers from hyperthymesia. He has been living a painful life because he can even remember when an ant passes by his feet. For this reason, he always deliberately remains indifferent and distant to others, with a sharp tongue and difficult to deal with.

　　Qi Yuanan plays a policeman who is suspended from work and stays at home because of some things.

　　Cheng Manxin is Shen Yi’s former high school classmate, but her current identity is a woman who sells her body.

　　The plot is winding and interlocking. A high school jumping incident connects several people together and reveals what happened more than ten years ago. Here in the playground, Shen Yi recalls past events.

　　The camera is presented in a way of traveling back in time, allowing the protagonist Shen Yi to recall his past memories from a bystander’s perspective.

　　So he has to play two roles here——

　　One is him more than ten years later, and the other is him more than ten years ago, when he was in high school and had experienced the past events firsthand.

　　Extras have to go through the plot at least twice.

　　One of them focuses on high school Shen Yi, while the other is from the perspective of the protagonist more than ten years later.

　　Qi Yuanan’s character follows the protagonist, while Cheng Manxin’s character is in the memories.

　　The first shot was of Shen Yi standing aside, recalling what had happened here before. The perspective was from the back, and Shen Yi was also standing from the back, which was equivalent to following behind the crowd and watching what was happening.

　　So the first time around, there were only a few main shots of Shen Yi, and the important plot revolved around Cheng Manxin.

　　Among the extras, the first person Shen Chu “dealt with” was Cheng Manxin.

　　Anyone who has watched a film crew shoot knows that, especially for outdoor scenes, there is no such thing as clearing the scene completely. As long as there are no mistakes in the shot, it doesn’t matter how many people are standing elsewhere, so there are usually a lot of people watching the outdoor scenes.

　　As an actor, basically everyone can develop the ability to “ignore other existences”, otherwise how can they immerse themselves in the plot and get into the role.

　　Especially when Shen Chu was holding a small umbrella to cover himself…

　　The main reason was that he had been pushed here all the time, and he hadn’t had time to prepare himself mentally… Thinking of his second brother transforming into a Charizard, even if Agumon transformed into a Greymon, no matter how much he had seen him since he was a child, he wanted to shrink his neck.

　　But Shen Chu hadn’t thought it through yet, so he had to go.

　　The camera is set up and the actors are in their positions.

　　Shen Yi and Qi Yuanan stood aside holding umbrellas. The two of them represent the present tense in the play. In front of them is the time scene that Shen Yi is recalling in his mind. In terms of the plot, only Shen Yi can see it, and Qi Yuanan is just a background board.

　　However, during the filming, Qi Yuanan saw his younger brother Qi Yuansi at a glance.

　　Next to it is…

　　Besides Xie Shiming, who is the other one standing very close to the two of them?

　　Xiaosi, do you have other classmates who you get along well with?

　　As he was watching, Shen Yi next to him couldn’t help but notice it.

　　At the same time, the character played by Cheng Manxin was about to raise her head and look at the few people who were gossiping –

　　There was a child reciting the lines, and it sounded quite professional, at least the emotions were on point. The role that Cheng Manxin had to play required her to glare over and stare at the people who were talking in front of her, but when she looked over and saw the little face clearly, she couldn’t help but be surprised.

　　——Why does it look so familiar?

　　I seem to have seen it somewhere before…

　　I was distracted and looked for a long time.

　　When Shen Chu finished his lines, it was time for him to leave, but one of the leading actors was still staring at him, and for a moment he didn’t know whether he should leave or not.

　　Just like that, a hand suddenly pressed on my shoulder.

　　A stern voice sounded behind me…

　　”Is it my memory that is confused, or is there something really unusual about the situation?”

　　Shen Chu: “…”

　　”No, there is no way my memory is abnormal.”

　　I changed the plot and lines myself——

　　Shen Chu had heard the crew tell them this story before, and his second brother should have been silent throughout the whole process, and he wouldn’t have come over… It was obvious why Shen Yi changed the plot and lines now…

　　Originally, the character of Shen Yi was somewhat morbid and paranoid, and the revised lines were in line with the character’s setting, so the director did not stop it. However, the revised lines, to Shen Chu’s ears, were like a thunderclap in his ears…

　　”In that case, now I have finally caught you…”

　　The warm breath and deliberately hoarse voice sounded as if a snake was staring at him.

　　Especially the three words “caught” that came to an abrupt end at the end, almost spraying on Shen Chu’s neck. Along with the coolness brought by the sprinkler, Shen Chu was so scared that he wanted to turn around and run away.

　　Woohoo, brother, I was wrong…
