119. Mount Takao framing 2(2/2)
"Huh..." Sighing with satisfaction, Watanabe Toru saw Rin Kiyono pointing his SDS-SLR at him. He didn't know whether he was taking pictures or recording videos.
He shook the bottle of plastic in his hand at her.
"Watanabe-san," Seino Rin's beautiful and refined little face emerged from behind the SLR, "you can't do such frivolous actions."
"frivolous?"
Toru Watanabe can't understand "showing off that he drank half a bottle of water in one go". How is it so frivolous?
Does Rin Kiyono understand the joke about "I only have one sip to praise my father"?
"You have to look to the north." Kiyono Rin said something even more unclear.
"North...I don't miss home that much." Iwate Prefecture is far north of Mount Takao.
Qingye Rin sighed: "I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about your character."
"My persona?"
"You appear to be a silent, autistic boy, but in fact you are just immersed in your own world, bent on becoming a professional performer. When you are resting, you are also looking at the direction of Iwate Prefecture, missing the happy time you spent with your childhood sweethearts.
So you should have looked north silently just now."
"...This is the first time I've heard of this setting. Could it be that you just came up with it?"
"How rude. I wrote these things clearly in the script."
"I haven't read the script."
Qingye Rin was stunned for a moment, and then as if he remembered something, his already rosy face became a little shy.
"Wait a minute." Toru Watanabe looked at her evasive eyes, "Did you forget to show me the script?"
"Watanabe-san, please reshoot the scene just now, don't waste time." Rin Kiyono retracted his face behind the SLR.
That pretty face is not big, and hiding behind the SLR, no one can see her expression at all.
"I thought you were following the style of great directors and letting the actors perform on their own! I'm so disappointed, Kiyono-san!"
Rin Kiyono glared over fiercely: "Follow the director's arrangements, Watanabe-san."
"Am I right?!"
"Look north!"
The other four girls looked here, Ichimoku Aoi whispered something, and Tamamo Kaomi wanted to join in, but the weather was too hot and she didn't want to talk.
Hanada Asako stared at the two of them, holding tightly the thermos cup containing iced wheat tea, her cute little face frowning.
Asuka Mai looked motionless at the bottle in Toru Watanabe's hand, put her own water bottle between her lips, and took a sip.
After "taming" Toru Watanabe, at the request of Ichimoku Aoi, Rin Kiyono and other girls took photos of each other.
After resting for fifteen minutes, they continued to climb. Before reaching the top of the mountain, they passed a suspension bridge.
The empty valley is secluded, with dense jungle on both sides, and various mushrooms even growing at the foot of the trees. A wooden suspension bridge in such an environment completely inspired director Rin Kiyono's desire.
"Watanabe-san, please walk over alone. When you reach the middle, remember to turn back and show a sad and happy smile." Director Kiyono Rin pointed to the suspension bridge under the sun.
Watanabe Toru looked at her expression: "Sad and happy smile? Are you taking revenge for what happened just now?"
"I plan to find a chance to retaliate against you, but please worry, what I said just now is all for the movie. This is the scene after your death. The person died in Shinjuku, the most prosperous district in Tokyo, but the final goodbye was in the mountains, implying
It's your first love with the one you like, how do you feel?"
If someone else said this, Toru Watanabe would definitely think that the other person was deliberately making excuses and was actually retaliating against him, but he believed everything Rin Kiyono said - except those who scolded him.
"It makes sense, but it's really not me who died."
"Go quickly." Qingye Rin showed a happy smile.
Watanabe Toru didn't know whether she was happy for finding inspiration, or whether she was happy for taking advantage of her verbally again.
"Okay." As a professional actor, Toru Watanabe obeyed the director's instructions and walked to the suspension bridge.
"Wait a minute." Qingye Rin called out to him, "Give me the bag first."
Watanabe Toru returned the woven bag to her.
The weather was hot, and the strap of the woven bag retained a residual temperature higher than body temperature. Qingye Rin was stunned for a moment when he held it, and then naturally put the bag on his shoulder again.
When Toru Watanabe walked over, Hanada Asako couldn't help but ask: "Kiyo-san, isn't Kujo-san the heroine? Why aren't you here?"
"Today was originally just for shooting, but Watanabe-san came with me, so I just took some temporary shots."
"Does Kujo-san know what happened today?" Hanada Asako asked immediately.
After adjusting the exposure and other parameters, Qingye Rin turned around and said with a meaningful smile: "So what if I don't know?"
"I don't know. If you don't know... I don't think this is good." Hanada Asako clenched her fists and mustered up the courage to say.
"Don't worry." Qingye Rin smiled slightly, "Things are not what you think, Hanada-senpai."
"Really?"
"Well. Watanabe and Kujo, the two of them..."
"Is this okay?" Toru Watanabe's voice came from afar.
Qingye Rin looked over and said: "Go back a little bit... That's it, right there."
She raised her SLR and pointed it at Toru Watanabe in the center of the suspension bridge.
The young man's back looked particularly tall and straight as he walked alone towards the dark other side.
He suddenly turned around, with excitement and joy on his face, and pointed into the distance: "Look, it's Ultraman's pyramid!"
"..."
Rin Kiyono put down his SLR and looked at Toru Watanabe with eyes like a cold storm sweeping across the Antarctic and the Arctic.
Watanabe Toru put away his smile and turned around silently.
This is really like the first episode of "Tiga", where Dagu stands on the suspension bridge and looks at the pyramid. As a professional actor, he really couldn't resist the desire to act on the spot.
The most important thing is, what exactly is a "sad happy smile"!
