Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 453: Ripple Street

However, taking Rachel Vichy as a test subject is Charlotte's evil taste after all.

His current real work is still the preparation of the film "The Mummy" and the subsequent filming of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"——

As soon as he returned to England, Charlotte came to the filming site of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" non-stop, and began to check the progress of the filming during his absence.

——Before he left, he had selected some well-controlled shots in advance and handed them to the assistant director, Lao Gun, to supervise the shooting.

Although Lao Qiang has never been a full-fledged director, he has been an assistant director for a long time and has rich experience, so the shooting progress is well controlled.

Although it was not as fast as Charlotte's hurricane, everyone was in full state, but they also maintained a normal progress without causing delays.

Charlotte checked and found that most of the shots were fine except for a few shots that might need to be adjusted.

It's a meddling thing that Alexis talked about that caught his attention--

"In the block near the studio, there was a bizarre murder case-the victim was a street girl. After she was killed, her stomach was cut open -"

"Alexis, don't you want to tell me that this case is a lot like Jack the Ripper's modus operandi?"

Before Miss Valkyrie could finish speaking, Charlotte asked bluntly.

In response, Alexis shrugged.

"Who knows? Anyway, the British media has been climactic recently because of this case-they all said this was a copycat of Jack the Ripper, and even exaggerated, simply saying that Jack the Ripper was resurrected..."

"How can it be!?"

Charlotte sneered at her face, but couldn't help but move in her heart--

"Theoretically, in order to gain more fear, it is possible for ghosts to deliberately dissect people after killing, or even deliberately eat part of their internal organs."

"But that kind of weirdness is generally lower, unless..."

Charlotte shook his head, he thought he was thinking too much.

After all, ghosts are still rare in this world.

However, thinking of her own experience a few years after the journey, Charlotte became uncertain again.

"If you have time, take me to the crime scene to have a look!"

Charlotte said to Alexis.

These words suddenly excited the Valkyrie—

"Charlotte, do you suspect that there is a ghost in it?"

"Frankly speaking, it's unlikely."

Charlotte shook her head.

"However, just in case, I'd better take a look. After all, our "Hogwarts" can be said to be the most concentrated place of ghosts nearby. If there are other ghosts nearby, he is 80% I'll notice here too."

"That's true!"

Alexis nodded.

"Then let's explore it!? I just know that someone has a lot of information about this case."

For some reason, Charlotte always felt that Miss Valkyrie’s face had an expression called "pleasure"...

**********

In fact, it's not just Alexis who is happy.

It should be said that, except for the policemen who are having headaches in New Scotland Yard, there are people all over the UK, from Downing Street to Manchester, who are watching this case with a curious mind.

No way, who made Jack the Ripper the ancestor of modern serial killers, whose name has been artistically turned into a symbol, and has become a synonym for dark culture!

It can be said that as long as Jack the Ripper is mentioned, those lovers of crime and curiosity culture, as well as some people who like the dark British style of the late Victorian era, will involuntarily pay attention.

In this case, journalists will naturally not miss this feast.

Among them, it includes "Parrot" Polly.

Although as an entertainment reporter, "Parrot" Polly had an internship in the current affairs section, and he had the heart to become a social news reporter.

——Of course, this is pure nonsense when he chatted with his younger brother George.

Polly knew very well that he was just idle and bored, and suddenly wanted to make a big news——

No way, although the crew of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is full of topics and often releases all kinds of interesting small news, in the final analysis, it is designed in advance by the crew.

——Poli has no sense of accomplishment in reporting this kind of news.

It was not that he had not considered using bugs and other methods again, but after failing once, he was a lot more cautious.

Moreover, the castle-style studio where the crew of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" made the movie also made Polly feel very weird——

He sneaked in with George once, but the two big men just got lost inside.

Even the photos taken were invalidated because of George's carelessness, and a camera was lost.

This makes Polly very angry.

What made him even more angry was the blonde woman who found them next and "sent" them to the outside of the studio.

——Smiling and disdainful eyes of the other party~lightnovelpub.net~ makes Polly feel that he has been seriously provoked.

The other party claimed to be Charlotte Booth's secretary, but looking at the other party's appearance comparable to a female star, Polly felt that the other party was 80% of the kind of "capable secretary".

This makes Polly feel that he has found a possible scandal.

After all, as a big-name director, Charlotte Booth, although not married, has maintained a relationship with the popular actress Charlize Theron for several years.

If the news of his derailment can be broken, it should also be a sensation.

——However, apart from his own conjecture, Polly has no other evidence.

Although as a reporter for The Sun, evidence has never been a problem-as long as it is news, it can be used to fabricate evidence without evidence.

But the problem is that without complete evidence, the credibility and dissemination of news will be greatly compromised.

For a senior paparazzi like Polly, this has no meaning.

Therefore, he can only continue to wait for the opportunity.

While waiting, this case of imitating "Jack the Ripper" happened.

Because the location of the crime was not too far away from the filming location of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone". Polly, who had been crouching nearby, rushed to the scene as soon as he received the news.

Although it is impossible to take pictures of the murderer, Polly has managed to grasp the first-hand information quickly.

As a result, an entertaining paparazzi became the first reporter to follow up the case.

Even Polly has a lot of information, even some information inside the police, he has also learned a lot through eavesdroppers.

This cannot but be said to be a kind of irony.

Ironically, "Parrot" Polly didn't know that the blonde woman who despised him, Alexis, who he guessed to be a "capable secretary", was actually watching him secretly...
