Chatty Hollywood

Unlike the film critics who were calm and paid to watch the movie, the little girl Emily was a little excited.

She was the lucky audience chosen by the film crew to attend the internal preview.

——Okay, this sounds a bit guilty.

She actually got a spot at the internal preview screening of "Happy Death Day" through her father, who runs a video rental store.

"Maybe dad actually knows some Hollywood stars."

After seeing her father's energy with her own eyes, the little girl began to believe what he had boasted about before.

——Okay, I just "somewhat believe it."

The reason why Emily came to attend the internal preview of "Happy Death Day" was actually because she fell in love with Charlotte Booth's movies through the previous "The Turn".

That's right, Emily, who likes watching horror movies, is a person who watches movies following the name of the director.

After "The Turn", she fell in love with the new director Charlotte Booth.

Although many comments later analyzed that the second-hand special effects of "Fatal Turn" is an unreplicable miracle, Emily still feels that there will be surprises when watching the movies directed by Charlotte later.

So, when she heard that Charlotte's new film "Happy Death Day" was about to hold an internal preview, she persuaded her father to get tickets for the preview.

"It is said that it is somewhat similar to "Groundhog Day", and there is Bill Murray in it. Sheldon and the others must be very envious of me!"

——After the last "I don't know each other" at the premiere of "The Turn", the foursome of Emily and Sheldon became friends, and they often meet up to go to the movies.

Especially Sheldon and Leonard, who have become regular customers of Emily's father's video rental store.

Because of this, Emily knew that Sheldon and the four of them liked Bill Murray very much, not only his "Groundhog Day" but also his "Ghostbusters".

so--

"When I finish watching this movie, I will show it off to Sheldon and the others. It will be fun to see their envious and jealous expressions."

At this moment, the little girl completely forgot that she had signed a confidentiality agreement with the film crew.

************

By contrast, Anthony DiNozzo knows the rules.

——Well, Anthony’s short name is Tony.

As an NCIS agent and a movie enthusiast, Tony knew very well that the confidentiality agreement for internal previews must be abided by.

The reason is very simple. Anyone who likes to watch movies and follow TV series will understand——

Spoiler Dog Must Die!

Tony actually came to Los Angeles to visit Kate.

Kate Todd!

After working together on several cases, Tony became very fond of this female detective who liked to draw portraits of everyone she knew.

"It's a pity that BOSS didn't use his invincible charm to lure Kate to NCIS!"

Tony secretly cursed his boss.

——He didn't dare to say this to his face, otherwise he would definitely get a critical blow on the back of the head.

But since he can't get closer to the water, Tony has no choice but to move around frequently.

Coincidentally, after solving a major case, the BOSS had a rare conscience and gave everyone a few days off. Tony didn’t want to imitate BOSS and build a sailboat in his basement, so he decided to come to Los Angeles to visit Kate...

Then, out of nowhere, Kate was brought to the internal preview screening of "Happy Death Day".

"Is this a date?"

These words swirled in Tony's mind, but he never asked them.

Although he is somewhat romantic on weekdays, Tony is timid when facing someone he really likes.

"Why do you like watching horror movies?"

Although as a movie expert, Tony has watched almost most of the movies produced by Hollywood,

But he prefers action movies, and as far as he knows, Kate doesn't particularly like horror movies.

After all, as federal agents, their daily lives are already curious enough, and they don't need to look for additional excitement.

"Mainly because many people in this crew are involved in the "Vians Valley" series of cases."

"That "Current Killer"?"

As a federal agent, Tony also knew about this major case that happened in Los Angeles, but he didn't know that the alias he mentioned was exactly what Kate hated to hear.

"Don't mention that name!"

Kate looked unhappy;

"That is simply a name created by the producers of "Fatal Turn" in order to gain popularity in the "Vials Valley" series of cases."

Kate said bitterly,

"In that case, I have always suspected that it was related to the crew of "Fatal Turn", especially the director Charlotte Booth. Although it later turned out that he did not have the time to commit the crime, I still felt that something was wrong with this person."

"Women's intuition?"

Tony smiled,

"But you can't find any evidence or even a clue, right?"

Although they haven't been together for too long, Tony knows Kate very well, and she is by no means the type to ignore suspicions.

Now that she is saying this here, it only means that she has found nothing.

"yes!"

Kate sighed, confirming Tony's guess,

"Indeed, nothing was found."

"But how did you get the tickets for the internal preview?"

As far as Tony knows, unless you have connections, you really have to rely on luck to get tickets for this kind of internal preview.

"Jodie Foster gave it to me."

Kate's answer left Tony unsure of what to say.

As a film expert, Tony certainly knew about Jodie Foster, a double Oscar winner, and he had watched "The Silence of the Lambs" many times.

But he never thought that one of his friends could actually interact with such a big star.

——Is it true that there are as many stars as dogs in Los Angeles and directors everywhere? ?

For a moment, Tony, who loved watching movies and chasing stars, almost wanted to file a transfer report and be transferred to the NCIS branch in Los Angeles.

Fortunately, at the last moment, BOSS's majestic image and BOSS's slap stopped him in his mind.

Tony subconsciously touched the back of his head.

"But, Kate, why did Jodie Foster give you the tickets?"

He still doesn't quite understand.

"Because I'm investigating a case related to her."

Kate looked depressed,

"...But there is still no progress."

"A case involving Jodie Foster?"

Tony automatically ignored Kate's next sentence,

"Ah, I remembered it! That "heart-stealing" case!!"

"yes!"

The depression on Kate's face became even heavier.

"Heart-stealing" is also the name the media gave to Kate's case. Like "Current Killer", Kate didn't like this name at all, but there was nothing she could do about it.

"I always feel like I've been on bad luck ever since I got to Los Angeles."

Kate murmured,

"Is it because I don't get along with the FBI?"

"..."

These words made Tony laugh and cry.

This is more like what their gothic little witch Abby Shouto would say - although the latter, as a forensic officer of NCIS, should be an out-and-out Scientologist.

But considering Kate talks to Abby on the phone so often... who knows?

"If you don't like the FBI and Los Angeles, you can go to NCIS with me. You know, BOSS also welcomes you."

In the end, Tony simply started poaching mode, although he also knew that there was little hope——

"Thank you, but I won't leave the unfinished case and run away!"

really!

Tony shook his head helplessly.

At this time, the lights in the screening room dimmed.

The internal preview screening of "Happy Death Day" has officially begun.
