Daydream Theatre - C11
“This is my first time coming to Emma’s prison.” On the way, Ms Mistie told me this. This is a little out of my expectations, because I think that since she spent a lot of time investigating Emma’s background, then she should also go and confront Emma to obtain some information.
“Anyway, we’re going to see her soon.”
“I’ve always wanted to ask her these questions in person, to ask her what really happened that afternoon. But you know she’s a public figure, and she’s not allowed to be visited by public figures. It’s really funny, isn’t it? ” She smiled towards my sunglasses. I don’t think that would be good enough for her to vote for, after all, most of the spectators were all standing by Emma’s side.
I could only try to smooth things over, “This time, it’s alright. With the Eloi Company’s authorization, we’ll be able to go anywhere unhindered.” I raised my bracelet and showed her my bracelet. This is something that only special employees of Eloi and Moloch Company would have. The authorized chip embedded inside it can give users extremely high rights of passage.
Of course, just in case, the bracelet also has a recording function like a holographic projection ball, so although we can enter some places that ordinary people can’t enter, the things that we do afterwards are under the supervision of the upper echelons of the company.
So I don’t feel like there’s anything to be happy about, I’m just a set up by the program team to win the Access Rate.
It was just as Ms Mistie had said, the row of people in front of the prison entrance blocked our path. The Moloch Robot obviously didn’t recognize the symbol of Eloi Company, it only stood there and “raised its” electric baton to welcome us.
The prison that Lady Emma was in wasn’t specifically set up for VIP characters, but I bet she had her own special treatment there, because under the Protection Act, how could a person who had made an outstanding contribution to society receive the same punishments and modifications as someone who had made a negative impact on society?
I used the Eloi bracelet to approach a person who seemed to be the main organizer, Xiao Hei. I immediately received a related authorization, “Hello, both you and Ms Mistie have the right to visit Conviction No. 0978, Emma Hahn. I will bring you guys there. But he did not give way. The one who led us was a little black shadow beside him. Obviously they are all a group and call themselves “I”.
“Thank you very much.” I even thanked him seriously. The other one led us through dark corridors, patrolling at all corners. It was clear that the lights were useless to them; they were positioned by other sensors.
We also haven’t been able to see the other prisoners from beginning to end, so Emma was indeed imprisoned in a special prison.
At the end of the corridor we finally saw a bright hall with a few chairs near us and a large glass wall opposite. The Miss Emma seemed to have received a notice and was already sitting inside the glass wall.
Xiao Hei, who had guided us, said, “We will activate the holographic technique so that you can communicate with Emma’s simulated projection in the same space.” I nodded.
But at the same time, I heard the director remind me in my ear, “Latimer, perform the second authorization, and request to meet face to face.” Of course I understand the program team’s intentions. If they could communicate with Emma’s real person, the audience would be even more satisfied.
So I brought my bracelet closer to Blacky, and I was immediately authorized to enter. “Hello, both you and Ms Mistie have the right to enter Conviction No. 0978, Emma Hahn’s visiting room. The visiting time is two hours.” A door suddenly appeared on the huge glass wall. I was very surprised to see the Miss Emma. I don’t think that even if it was the Mr Quinn s, they wouldn’t be able to visit her face to face. After all, he needed to contact the higher-ups.
We sat face to face with the Miss Emma, while the two Little Black continued to circle around us. I asked the program team through a hidden channel if there was any way to make these two eyesores disappear, but the director told me that this was the limit of what I could do. After all, Xiao Hei is Moloch’s “person”!
But it’s not that important, after all, the robots are just following the established procedures and won’t affect our conversation.
We had a full two hours to make this exciting visit, and maybe the Miss Emma didn’t know that about three hundred million people were watching her through my sunglasses. So I went straight to the point: “Respected Miss Emma, I am the live broadcast host of the ‘Daydream Theatre’ program. For the needs of the program, we will interview you for two hours. Thank you for your cooperation. ”
Emma obviously did not know who Miss Mistie was, nor did she know what question she had to answer, so she said in a friendly manner: “Ah, I’m fine. My life here is very quiet, and I’m sorry for what I did… ”
Maybe she was doing a normal public relations broadcast to “maintain her positive image”, but Miss Mistie had an imposing manner the moment she started: “Then why are you apologizing?”
“I …” Emma looked at her in shock. Emma might have been thinking why this person had asked such a difficult question from the beginning, “I am sorry for my previous mistakes. I have let the fans who love me feel disappointed.”
“Wrong? “Then what was the mistake?” Ms Mistie insisted on asking for the details, and even directly stood up.
“Ah, Miss Emma.” I raised my hand to let Mistie take a seat, “This is the guest of honor for our show — — Ms Mistie. She also has another identity. It’s you … You missed… Un, Allen’s daughter who died because you didn’t inform the police in time! ”
When I said this, it obviously surprised Emma. A look of fear appeared on her face, and her whole body began to tremble violently.
“Why, are you so afraid to face me?” Mistie’s eyes seemed to be ablaze at this time, “What are you afraid of? Didn’t you say that my father tried to threaten you and you accidentally pushed him into the river? ”
Miss Emma did not say a word, as if he did not want to explain anything.
I reminded him, “Miss Emma, right now, there are a large number of spectators, including many of your fans, who are watching this episode live.” Daydream Theatre is also a program under Eloi. Please cooperate with us and do this episode well. Besides, you can also make some pleas for your conduct. ”
“Defense?” Emma suddenly raised her decibel level, “The judgement has already been passed down, I do not need to say anything more on this matter.”
“Yes, I know about your verdict and the events described in it. But I am afraid that Ms Mistie has some questions that she wants to ask you. In order to dispel her doubts, can you please give me a proper answer? ”
“I’ve already answered countless times. That’s what happened.”
I turned my head to look at Mistie. I thought that if Miss Emma did not cooperate, this interview would be completely useless.
However, it seemed that the Ms Mistie had long since come prepared, “Then good. Let’s not talk about what happened on the Greenbird Bay first. We went to see your boyfriend yesterday. Yes, the Mr Quinn. Unfortunately, he has already been swept out of the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest by Eloi Film And Television Company … ”
I carefully observed Emma’s expression. Other than the fact that she was a little surprised at the start, Emma seemed to not have any expression on her face. It was as if she wasn’t really concerned about this matter.
“What is it? Do you not care about Mr Quinn being expelled? ” The Ms Mistie caught on to the main point, “This does not match your acting skills!”
“Of course I’m concerned about Quinn,” Emma finally responded. “I’m concerned about his career and life, I think this period is rather difficult for him. But even if he leaves the Eloi, I think he would be able to find a suitable place to display his skills. ”
“Show what? “Do you play the part of deceiving the public?”
“Ms Mistie!” Emma’s voice became sharp again, but regained its calm very quickly, I think this was the cultivation of a public figure, “Ms Mistie, I don’t think the relationship between Quinn and I has anything to do with you. Before this, I didn’t even know that Mr. Allen had a daughter. ”
“Very well, I will let you know that this daughter of yours is not easy to bully.” Mistie took out a few printed versions of the media reports from her bag. “Let’s talk about the matter first, Miss Emma, can you please tell me why you decided to go for a walk in Greenbird Bay that day?”
“Please note that I would not have continued this interview had I not received the company’s notice requesting me to cooperate with such a program.” Miss Emma regained his composure, “The reason I went to take a walk in Greenbird Bay that afternoon was just to relax, there isn’t any other special reason.”
“And then you met my father?”
“Are you talking about Allen? I can’t forget the man’s clothes and appearance, because he did something indecent to me afterwards and kept saying embarrassing things. ”
Ms Mistie did not refute him. “Fine, then did you two meet at half past two?”
“It should be so. “But I just happened to meet him by chance.”
“Why do you insist that it was just a coincidence?”
“I don’t emphasize it. I’m just stating the facts.”
“Have you seen Allen before?”
“Before? Of course not. It was only after the investigation was conducted that I found out his name was Allen. ”
“Very good. Then, when Allen wanted to do something against you, what did you do? ”
“Even though I was shouting for help, it was a weekend and there was no one near Greenbird Bay. I could only forcefully throw him off, but he still chased after me, wanting to hug me. ”
“And then?”
“I can only kick him away, but he won’t forgive me.”
“And the last?”
“Finally …” Emma did not want to recall his memories, “In the end, he fell into the river.”
“Did you push him into the river?”
“No, I’m just protecting myself.”
“But you did push him into the river, didn’t you?”
“If you insist on saying so, then I cannot refute you. I just want to get rid of him and get out of there as soon as possible. ”
“You know he can’t swim?”
“I don’t know. When I saw that he no longer bothered me, I ran away in fright.”
“You mean you ran away when you saw him fall into the river?”
“I hardly knew he fell into the river. I mean, I’m not sure. Of course I didn’t know he couldn’t swim. I told you, I just wanted to protect myself. I just wanted to get out of there. I had no idea he would drown like this, I can’t imagine. ” Emma was a little nervous as he started to mutter incoherently.
“What did you do after you ran away?”
“I ran back to the hotel.”
“Did you tell anyone else about this?”
“Not at the time.”
“Do you think nothing happened?”
“Ms Mistie!” Emma became impatient, “If you were the victim at that time, after getting rid of the person who was bothering you, would you tell these things to others?”
“But when you saw Allen fall into the river, you didn’t tell anyone in time? Have you ever considered that he can’t swim? has it not occurred to you that he might die because of it? ”
“To be honest, I didn’t think about it. Would you consider what would happen to the other person if you met with the same thing? I gave the bad guy a punch, and I still have to consider if the bad guy will get hurt. ”
I think that Emma’s retorts are very reasonable, not to mention that she has already received a certain punishment, she was imprisoned for three months due to her improper defense defense.
“Then, do you think that Allen’s assault at that time was so severe that you would go overboard to retaliate against him?”
“What do you mean? Others have ill intentions towards me, but I am still unable to retaliate? ”
“Can’t you see he’s in his seventies?”
“No matter how old you are, molestation is molestation. Is it possible for a person to rely on his own age to escape punishment? ”
This time, it was Mistie’s turn to be speechless. Emma continued to press on and say, “A lady who has been molested has overdefended herself due to being frightened, and she has already been punished and educated. Don’t you think it’s shameful for a program to question her on these plausible questions before she recovers from prison? ”
I originally thought that a star like Emma would only know how to “seduce people”, but I never thought that she would be so eloquent. If I were in Ms Mistie, I probably wouldn’t be able to continue this visit. Because all of the reasons seemed to be on Emma’s side, I looked at the barrage of bullets and the voting statistics. Right now, there isn’t even one percent of those who support Ms Mistie.
“But please listen carefully,” Ms Mistie took out the key photo from her bag, “The basis of everything you just said was’ you were molested by a stranger you met and accidentally pushed into the river ‘. What if not only do you know this person, you had also arranged to meet him at Greenbird Bay for some reason? ”
The picture of Emma when she was young was placed in front of her, along with the mysterious boyfriend.
The Ms Mistie continued, “I have evidence to believe that my father and this person — in the photo, your boyfriend from back then — knew each other. Will you still say that it was a coincidence that you met my father that day? ”
“What …” Emma looked down at the photo, as if she didn’t want us to see her expression, “What boyfriend at that time?”
“Don’t you know him?”
“Who?”
Mistie pointed to the man on the photo who had her hand on Emma’s shoulder, “This man was your boyfriend when you were in university. Although I don’t know his name, if he’s accessing this episode right now, I’d like him to come forward. can tell us the truth about this case. ”
“I …”
“Perhaps the audience will ask why he stood up? Was he going to force his girlfriend into jail? The funny thing is, for your own career, your girlfriend has already abandoned you! No matter what kind of alliance it was, or whether it was forever, look, for her own path of acting, she had already chosen to be together with the Mr Quinn! Oh no, the Mr Quinn is already at the end of his road, of course she would choose to be with the other popular children! And you? You are just a poor, foolish brat, how could you be worthy of us, Miss Emma, who are always smart and never get stuck in the mud? Everyone, do you think so? ” The Ms Mistie stood up and looked at me as he spoke emotionally, “Don’t you understand? Since my father knows this kid, then will Emma let my father have a peaceful time? Once Emma’s past love history was exposed… It was even possible that Emma was still contacting this brat, and his relationship with Mr Quinn was merely on the surface as a couple. You guys also saw yesterday, how Mr Quinn treats Miss Emma, could there be any love between them? Impossible! As long as my father reveals this information to the public, and this scandal, will Emma still have a chance to continue his journey? Will you continue to worship this person who plays with the audience and deceives them? For his own career, he would pretend to act towards you all, and perhaps would even say to that foolish brat, ‘Quinn and I are only like that on the surface. All the stars are like that, but in the end, I will be together with you.’ Haha, if you are watching this episode, please tell me, will you still believe this nonsense? Fellow audience members, do you still believe that Emma and my father coincidentally bumped into each other? What indecency? What molestation? This is obviously a premeditated murder attempt! ”
Under the interrogations of the Ms Mistie, even I felt that my imposing manner had pressured them. But it has to be said that this reasoning sounds very plausible and reasonable at first. On the other hand, Miss Emma still had her head lowered as she stared at the photo in a daze, as if she couldn’t understand what was going on.
“Love… Miss Emma! ” After the sound of “silence” faded away, I dared to ask this helpless big star, “Everyone is looking at you. Say something. What is the relationship between you and the person in this photo? ”
“Speak!” The Ms Mistie’s voice was like a bell, this time I could completely see the frightening aura in her eyes, an aura that was willing to sacrifice everything for revenge.
No matter how touching and beautiful the Miss Emma in front of him was, she was still the main culprit behind his father’s death. Furthermore, she was unwilling to admit her crimes, and even slandered Allen for molesting her … I didn’t know which side to take, because the evidence I’d seen in the past two days was almost enough to make me suspect that the case wasn’t that simple. But Miss Emma… The Miss Emma was so weak and helpless, maybe all of this was arranged by her Eloi Company, including the disappearance of this unknown boyfriend of hers … Was she really wrong?
I secretly glanced at the votes again. At this time, the Ms Mistie’s votes had already started to rise, it seems that there are already quite a few people convinced by her reasoning.
However, the Miss Emma did not give any response, and only lowered his head in silence.
At this moment, I saw a shadow cast onto the wall behind the Miss Emma, followed by a male voice filled with magnetism. “If it’s really as you said, Mr. Allen knows about the secret history of the Miss Emma, then why is it that the Miss Emma destroyed Mr. Allen’s mouth? Clearly she has the support of her entire Eloi Company, does she really need to do it herself? ”
I saw a man in a robe come in, and the two little black ones were still moving around us as if they didn’t care about him.
