Infinity Starting with Hikaru no Go

With that, Hattori Heizo hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Hattori Heizo, who had been squinting, quietly opened one eye and murmured, "Perhaps, he really can become a modern-day Sherlock Holmes."

"But modern island nations don't need detectives of Sherlock Holmes' caliber."

"Because the more outstanding the detective's performance, the more it highlights the police's incompetence..."

As he spoke, Hattori Heizo paused slightly, then closed his open eye again, continuing to mutter, "The Yamagata Prefecture police actually made such a fatal mistake, classifying a homicide as a suicide."

"It's easy to imagine that once this matter is exposed by the media, our police force will definitely become a laughing stock."

"Those responsible back then must be punished, and the police must once again demonstrate capabilities that can convince the public..."

Next, Hattori Heizo made a phone call and began to deploy and issue orders for the relevant work.

On the other side, the filming location of "The Snow Woman's Plan" is located.

The film's production was halted due to the arrest of the lead actor, Minowa Shōhei.

It's important to understand that the cost of setting up a film crew for even one day is enormous.

Director Morizo ​​Oyama was well aware of this, and therefore, he immediately began searching for a replacement actor in the entertainment industry.

The only problem is that suitable actors either have salaries that exceed the budget or are unavailable.

As for those unsuitable actors...

Oyama Morizo ​​did not want to tarnish the reputation already established by the Yuki-onna series, nor did he want to desecrate "The Yuki-onna's Plan," which was adapted from the Mizukami Jiro incident.

This made the mountain hermit even more distressed.

Under these circumstances, Kosuke Miho, who was the male lead's stunt double, recommended someone to Morizo ​​Oyama, namely Anxia Chen.

Although Chen Anxia is not famous in the entertainment industry, and is not even a member of the entertainment industry, in the eyes of Miho Kosuke, he is a more suitable candidate for the role of the male lead than Minowa Shohei.

As for the special effects makeup artist, Li Shiyun, perhaps because Chen Anxia helped Mizukami Jiro clear his name, also spoke up for Chen Anxia, ​​saying, "That boy named Chen Anxia surpasses Minowa Shohei in both appearance and temperament."

"I believe that as long as he enters the entertainment industry, he will definitely become a superstar in the future."

"Moreover, Chen Anxia herself is currently generating a huge amount of buzz."

"In this situation, as long as we bring up topics such as 'the famous detective who solved the four-year-old mystery starring in 'The Snow Woman's Plan', it will definitely bring more popularity to our film."

Li Shiyun's words also made the struggling Oyama Shouzou decide to give Chen Anxia an audition opportunity. As long as Chen Anxia is a promising talent, Oyama Shouzou is willing to be the talent scout.

As for whether Chen Anxia would agree to this question, Oyama Shouzang had never even considered it.

According to Daiyama Shōzō, no ordinary person can resist the temptation of starring in a popular movie.

Under these circumstances, Oyama Shouzou personally approached Chen Anxia.

"You want me to audition for the male lead?"

Chen Anxia was slightly taken aback after hearing what Dashan Shouzang said.

Upon seeing this, Oyama nods firmly and replies, "Yes."

Immediately afterward, Oyama Morizo ​​explained, "Your image is almost exactly the same as the male lead's character. Under the current circumstances, there is no one more suitable than you."

As he spoke, Oyama Morizo ​​straightened his expression and continued, "However, an audition is still necessary."

"Although your image is almost exactly the same as the male lead's character, if your acting is too terrible, then it definitely won't work."

"The Snow Woman's Plan, the third installment in the Snow Woman series, is like my child. I would rather shelve the film than ruin it."

Chen Anxia could understand what Da Shan Shou Cang was saying.

Oyama Shouzou's actions precisely demonstrate that he is a qualified and good director.

It's no wonder that he was able to direct the hugely popular films "The Snow Woman's Monster" and "The Snow Woman's Love".

As for whether he would agree to this, Chen Anxia's answer was yes.

To be honest, Chen Anxia is currently struggling with how to make money quickly.

It should be noted that Chen Anxia in this world has almost nothing except for the identity assigned to her by the system.

The little money he had left was taken by Watson, who accepted and completed the mission, as a reward for completing it.

Under such circumstances, Chen Anxia's primary concern was naturally making money.

There's a saying that goes, "Money isn't everything, but you can't do anything without it."

Putting aside everything else, Chen Anxia's daily food, clothing, and other necessities all require money.

Under such circumstances, the offer to star in the film "Oyama Morizo" was like a timely gift, coming just in time.

As for auditions, as for acting skills.

Chen Anxia has 100% confidence in herself.

The reason for this is that Chen Anxia possesses the talent for imitation of Niou Masaharu.

It should be noted that Niou Masaharu's imitations are described as a true phantom, an imitation so realistic that it is indistinguishable from the real thing.

This level of imitation, if considered in the context of acting skills, would undoubtedly be considered the pinnacle of superb acting.

Chen Anxia was confident that as long as he had enough data and the script provided by Dashan Shouzang was complete enough, he could make the male protagonist in the movie break through the world barrier and descend into this world.

Oyama Morizo ​​was also very straightforward. After seeing that Chen Anxia had agreed, he handed Chen Anxia the script he had prepared in advance and gave Chen Anxia time to prepare for the audition.

Half an hour later, in the makeshift rest room prepared at the ski resort, Chen Anxia's audition finally began.

It is worth mentioning that, at Chen Anxia's request, Hua Sheng was also present at the audition as Chen Anxia's assistant.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Chen Anxia began her acting performance.

Chen Anxia's eyes narrowed slightly, and a series of instructions flashed through his mind in an instant.

'The male protagonist's character model is 100% complete...'

'Change the current scene, load the matching model, dialogue, tone, expression, body language...start debugging...'

'The tuning is 100% complete, reproduction...begin!'

At that moment, the male protagonist, who only existed in the movie, appeared in everyone's eyes as a real phantom.

To be honest, everyone present had considered all sorts of possibilities, but none of them had imagined that Chen Anxia's acting skills would be so... unparalleled.

That's right, it's reaching the pinnacle.

This superb acting gave them goosebumps and left them deeply shocked, unable to express their emotions in words.

Among them, the moment Oyama Morizo ​​saw Chen Anxia's acting skills, he suddenly stood up from his chair, his eyes flashing with an extremely intense look.

In the eyes of the mountain guardian, the person before him was no longer Chen Anxia, ​​but the movie protagonist who had broken through the barriers of the world and come to him from the movie world.

This fact thrilled Daiyama Shouzou immensely, and his body trembled uncontrollably with excitement.

Oyama Morizo ​​didn't know how Chen Anxia, ​​who was only a junior high school student, could possess such superb acting skills, but that was no longer important.

Importantly, the male lead for "The Snow Woman's Plan" has been cast.

That's right, the male lead in the movie "The Snow Woman's Plan" is Chen Anxia. No one can change the mind of Dashan Shouzang.

Oyama Morizo ​​had a premonition that "The Snow Woman's Plan," the final installment of the Snow Woman trilogy, would likely become a classic surpassing the first two films due to Chen Anxia's performance, and would also become the most glorious mark in his film history.

The male lead role played by Chen Anxia will surely be included in textbooks and become a classic for future generations to learn from.

After the lead actors are confirmed, the next step is to sign the contract.

Chen Anxia is not an expert in actor contracts and has never dealt with them before.

Therefore, even with all his abilities, Chen Anxia was unable to judge a contract without any prior knowledge.

However, Chen Anxia had already thought about this. She handed the contract directly to Hua Sheng, who was still not calm, and asked with a smile, "Hua Sheng, since you are now my assistant, could you help me check if this contract is reasonable?"

Oyama Shouzou and the others didn't think there was anything wrong with Chen Anxia's actions, but they felt that Chen Anxia was a bit too mature and steady.

They had seen too many newcomers to the entertainment industry, and no matter their age, they simply couldn't be as mature and composed as Chen Anxia when faced with their first contract.

At the same time, they were also curious as to why Chen Anxia had Hua Sheng determine the reasonableness of the contract.

Could it be that this junior high school student named Hua Sheng has some special talent in law?

Hua Sheng was also taken aback by Chen Anxia's actions.

But Watson quickly realized what was happening.

In Hua Sheng's view, Chen Anxia should be able to judge the reasonableness of the contract on her own, and the reason she did this was to test herself.

Through his interactions with Chen Anxia, ​​Watson realized that Chen Anxia intended for him to become his partner, just like the real Sherlock Holmes and Watson.

Watson was naturally very willing to do so.

Watson had a premonition that as long as he could stay by Chen Anxia's side, he would definitely be able to embark on the path of detective work, and he would definitely encounter the scene he longed for on the path of detective work.

If Chen Anxia has the potential to become a modern-day Sherlock Holmes, then does he himself have the potential to become a modern-day Watson?

This question had always lingered in Watson's mind.

But now, looking at the test before him and at Chen Anxia's encouraging expression, Watson already knew the answer to the question.

The answer is to do your best to become a modern-day Watson, to become someone who can stand beside him!

Without further hesitation, Hua Sheng took the contract and began to examine it closely.

Meanwhile, Watson's mind entered the network of the player world through the system, and he began to seek help from professionals.

Watson is not yet aware of how terrifying the resources he possesses are.

And this is exactly the resource that Chen Anxia needs!

Two years later, at Tokyo International Airport.

A young man with a unique aura, wearing a baseball cap, sunglasses, and a mask, slowly walked into the airport's VIP lounge.
