Chapter 9: Chapter 9: Backstabbing
Perhaps Nanaya's tactic of killing a chicken to scare the monkey worked, and the subsequent filming went much more smoothly than before.
Although these extras became a little restrained in their performance because they were afraid that Nanaya would fire them again, normal people would usually be nervous when facing a corpse, so it was not a big problem.
After shooting a few more shots, Nanaya saw that everyone had tired looks on their faces. He knew very well that as a team leader, he needed to give everyone a sweet treat after a slap in the face to achieve both kindness and severity. So after making sure that there were no major problems with the shots, he announced to everyone to take a break.
"Senior, thank you for your hard work."
Ori, who also served as Nanaya's assistant, immediately handed him some water. Nanaya, who had been shouting at the top of his voice for a long time, immediately took a big gulp of mineral water to moisten his throat.
Nanaya wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Huh - really, although I knew it would be tiring, I didn't expect it to be this tiring."
"For your first time, you have done very well, Senior." Ori encouraged Nanaya with a smile.
"Indeed, apart from being a little younger, you still look very much like a director now, Kiryu."
Hearing this monotonous nasal voice, Nanaya immediately turned around and saw that it was Sera who was standing behind Illya who said this. Her master Illya was looking around curiously at this moment, and seemed to be very interested in everything on the set.
"Hello, big brother~ Illya is here to visit~" Illya noticed that Nanaya had come over, and she immediately greeted him.
"Senior, who is this little sister?" Ori looked at Illya curiously. She had never seen this little loli before.
"Forehead..."
Nanaya didn't know how to explain it for a moment and was stuck there.
Illya seemed very lively. She took the initiative to step forward and greeted Ori: "Hello, big sister~ Could you be Miss Ryougi Ori? You really are as beautiful as the legend says~ Illya is big brother's sister~"
"So she's your sister... Wait a minute, how come I've never heard of this kind of thing?" Ori grabbed Nanaya and said, "Also, what about women?! What did you teach your sister, senior?"
"I just said you are my reliable junior!"
[So if you care so much about gender, don't wear kimono as casual clothes! If you go out wearing this, people will definitely misunderstand you! ]
Nanaya felt like a dumb person swallowing bitter herbs and had no way to express his grievances. He guessed that Illya simply collected some information about her co-stars in the crew, and she probably assumed that Ori's gender was a female.
But to be honest, it would be normal for people to think that Ori was a girl the first time they saw his photo.
"Little sister, don't listen to what your brother says. I am a boy~" Ori let go of Nanaya and corrected Illya.
"You're lying... You're so beautiful..."
Illya was suddenly hit hard. Her face seemed to have been hit hard, and even her eyes lost their luster.
"Is there a problem with me being a boy?" Ori couldn't understand why Illya was so distracted, so he tilted his head and asked others.
[No, it's a problem because you're a boy.] *N
Everyone present silently complained in their hearts. Of course, given the fighting ability that Ori had just displayed, no one dared to say this out loud.
Fortunately, as a child, Illya was unusually lively and active. Although she was hit hard by the fact that Ori was the older brother instead of the older sister, she quickly cheered up and pestered Ori to ask about things related to him.
"Hey, why is Ori-nii wearing a kimono?"
Ori smiled and answered: "This is a tradition in our family."
Illya looked at the black kimono on Ori and said with envy, "Well, Illya wants to wear it too!"
"Next time there's a chance, I'll make a kimono for Illya."
···
"They really look like sisters."
Not far away, Nanaya sighed at Illya and Ori who were chatting happily.
Sera, who was standing side by side with Nanaya, was giving Nanaya a statement: "Listen, the eldest lady is your sister from afar. She is very interested in making movies so she visits the set regularly. I am the eldest lady's sister and I am there as a guardian. Do you understand? Don't make any mistake."
"knew."
To be honest, having such a person actually made Nanaya feel a lot more relaxed. Although it was a bit incongruous to let relatives' children wander around the crew, it was not a big problem as long as it did not interfere with the filming. You know, some crews even have special assistants to take care of the pets of big stars.
"Nanaye-san, who is this beautiful lady?"
A frivolous voice sounded, and it turned out that Shonan Rantaro took the opportunity to take a break and wandered over here. However, judging from the way he stared at Sera, it was obvious that he was attracted by this beautiful woman.
"Um... this is my relative Sera. She and her sister Illya are here to observe the production."
As soon as Nanaya finished saying this, Sera glared at him, which made him feel confused.
[What? Are you trying to say that my relative's relatives are not my relatives? Where did you come from, you European noble?]
"So it's Miss Sera~? My name is Shonan Rantaro, and I'm Kiryu-san's best friend~? Please give me your guidance~?"
Rantaro's performance fully demonstrated what it means to be ignorant and fearless. He directly extended his arm to Sera and wanted to shake hands with her.
Then--
In just 0.1 seconds, Sera put her hand knife to the guy's throat.
Sera threatened with a dark look on her face: "If you can't control the tool below, I can help you take it off and put it in your mouth~"
"S-Sorry!"
Shonan was obviously terrified. Not only did her whole body freeze there, but even her strange oral habits returned to normal.
[It turns out this guy can talk nicely...]
Nanaya looked at the fleeing Shonan and couldn't help wondering if he should use the strategy of "closing the door and releasing Sera" to make him regain his sanity if he went crazy again.
Sera turned around and found Nanaya staring at her. She quickly scolded him, "What are you looking at? Birds of a feather flock together! Stay away from the young lady!"
"What does this have to do with me?"
Nanaya's mouth twitched. He found that Confucius' words "Only villains and women are difficult to raise" were indeed true. He was really shot in the face even when he was lying down.
"I'm going to work."
Fearing Sera's extraordinary fighting power, Nanaya decisively chose to avoid her.
This is not cowardice, this is called a strategic retreat!
While Nanaya was muttering to himself in his mind, he signaled to the other crew members that the break was over and it was time to continue working.
For the entire morning, Nanaya shot shots of passers-by in front of the Wu Tiao Building. Nanaya used these unimportant shots to fully coordinate the crew. When all the shooting work in the morning was completed, the operation of the entire "Kara no Kyokai" crew had become smooth.
Of course, Nanaya's shooting intensity was also quite high, so when Nanaya announced that the morning work was over and everyone could have lunch, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the crew of "Kara no Kyokai" was poor, it was not to the point where they could not afford to feed their employees.
But don't even think about big fish or meat, all they have are cheap bento boxes. Apart from cabbage, a small piece of boiled fish and a few pieces of fried chicken that are as small as they can be, the only thing left is white rice sprinkled with sesame seeds.
Fortunately, the entire crew, from the director to the chores, all had the same lunch box. This equal treatment made some people who had complaints speechless. After all, no one forced you to eat lunch, and you just didn't want to spend money to buy it at the nearby convenience store.
"If I wasn't afraid of everyone rebelling, I wouldn't even want to have meat." Nanaya complained to a few of his confidants while eating his rice as fast as he could.
"That's enough. Don't go too far, senior." Ori stopped Nanaya from having unrealistic fantasies. If he really did that, Nanaya's reputation would be ruined.
"Budget, budget! Ori, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are until you run a household. Food expenses can be a very large expense!"
Ori quickly turned his head to avoid Nanaya's rice attack. Because of the insufficient budget, Nanaya is now almost like a miser.
"Kiryu."
At this time, Kaiuchi came over and whispered in Nanaya's ear, "I checked those extras just now. It seems that they were specially invited by Hyakumekusa to cause trouble."
Bang!
Nanaya broke the disposable chopsticks in his hand and said, "This bastard is haunting me!"

Onigiri pS: Some big-name actors will attach some very strange conditions, and even bring their relatives and friends to eat and drink for free during the filming. This is not an isolated case in China and abroad. ┓(??π`?)┏
