Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 593 The Killer’s Elegy

Of course, in addition to the trust that audiences and distributors have in the quality of Charlotte's work, the box office success of "Sherlock Holmes" is also related to an unexpected event——

That was the death of Billy Huntington!

After Agent Kate found Billy suddenly dead in his car, it was naturally impossible for him to hide the incident.

Therefore, on the one hand, the FBI asked the forensic doctor to conduct an autopsy on him to determine the cause of death. On the other hand, under the leadership of Kate, it began to verify the crimes that Billy had "confessed" according to his description during his lifetime.

And when its forensic officers actually found several human skeletons in the courtyard of Billy's house, the FBI suddenly became excited.

——This is a big case that comes to your door with a murderer! !

*******

Of course, if things end here, it will only be a very big case.

Although after the news of the case becomes fermented, the impact may not be small. But normally, it should not affect the box office of "Sherlock Holmes".

However, Kate caught Billy Huntington after the premiere of "Sherlock Holmes".

——There are many reporters there.

Even though Kate went to a secluded area to handcuff Billy to avoid causing chaos, she was still discovered.

After watching the movie, Parker Spade and Mary, who were planning to go to a nearby hotel to "communicate", happened to see the scene where she put handcuffs on Billy.

The two reporters will naturally follow their journalistic instincts and follow up on what happens next.

As a result, the news that "FBI arrests suspect and dies at movie premiere" made headlines the next day.

In order to control public opinion and avoid being passive, the FBI had no choice but to proactively announce the investigation into Billy Huntington.

As a result, Billy "The Ogre" Huntington's reputation suddenly became popular.

At the same time, as the background of the incident, "Detective Sherlock Holmes" also attracted a lot of attention.

If Billy Huntington committed the murder at the premiere of "Sherlock Holmes," then even if the movie's attention increases, it will have a negative effect overall.

——After all, even if the American people love to seek death, they are still afraid of death after all.

The problem is, Billy didn't do anything at the movie's premiere. He just watched the movie, turned himself in, and finally died.

This caused the curiosity of the busybodies to expand rapidly.

Many people who were not originally viewers of "Sherlock Holmes" also went into the cinema to watch this blockbuster out of curiosity.

——As a result, they unexpectedly discovered that this movie is really good.

**********

And this is not the end of the incident.

On the one hand, the FBI also needs to verify a series of cases confessed by Billy Huntington.

——Although the murderer is dead, a group of relatives of the victims are still there, including one or two relatively powerful figures.

There is no way to close the case without thoroughly investigating all the facts of the case.

And this naturally provides journalists with a lot of material.

——Billy Huntington’s case will remain popular for at least another month. Even after “Sherlock Holmes” is released in North America, the popularity of this case may not subside.

On the other hand, on the third day of the premiere, a piece of news came from Canada, which shocked the media and the public even more——

There was also a serial killer who surrendered after watching "Sherlock Holmes".

This man is different from Billy Huntington. He kills more to vent his crimes, and his crimes don't sound as horrific as Billy's.

But even so, the emergence of two serial killers within a few days was enough to shock the people of North America.

In particular, this man also died in the police station due to cardiac paralysis on the night of the surrender.

——This newsworthy coincidence made reporters almost think it was Carnival.

They each speculated or fabricated the stories of the two serial killers, even though the second serial killer made it very clear why he surrendered -

"I also don't have much time left. After seeing the news about Billy Huntington, I felt that it would be a good thing to let everyone know about my affairs before I die - as for how to tell the public, it's up to you. That’s it!”

——Are all serial killers today so open-minded?

The reporters sighed inwardly and immediately followed Mr. Killer's instructions.

——Isn’t it “how we tell the public, it’s up to us”?

As a result, from scientific psychological analysis to various opinions in the field of occultism, the North American newspapers in the past two days can simply be described as a chaotic chaos.

Not only was the box office performance of "Sherlock Holmes" not affected, but it rebounded under the influence of public curiosity. On the third and fourth days, it scored 49 million and 48 million respectively.

This exaggerated first-week box office performance is one of the best in North American box office history.

As a result, some reporters even called the surrender of the two serial killers "the gift of Sherlock Holmes" and said that this was due to the release of "Sherlock Holmes".

Even police spokespersons from some countries came to join in the fun——

In the UK, where "Sherlock Holmes" is about to be released, a police spokesperson from New Scotland Yard claimed that they would be on standby during the movie's release;

In contrast, the French are more humorous. They claim that "they are ready"...

Of course, in the eyes of most people, this is just an anecdote forced by the media, and the police in various countries are just making fun of it.

But they don't know that the "impossibility" in their minds is the real reason why things happened——

During the release of "Detective Sherlock Holmes", Sherlock Holmes, who was summoned by Charlotte, has been passing through the magic circle to help him find the serial killer who came to watch the movie.

Now, two have been killed in North America.

Although she failed to capture Jack the Ripper twice, Charlotte was actually attacking the foundation of his opponent's existence——

As the God of Serial Killers, there cannot be too many living people who truly "believe" in his existence.

"However, if you do this once or twice, Jack will no longer be attached to the killers. What should I do if I come to the cinema to watch your movie?"

Charlize pointed out a core issue directly,

"In that case, there's still nothing we can do against him, right?"

"It cannot be said that there is no way."

Charlotte shook her head;

"However, that would be too troublesome! - So, I still hope to catch Jack's tail next time!"

"next time!?"

"Premiere in London, UK!"

Charlotte explained,

"In the hometown of Sherlock Holmes, the premiere ceremony will naturally be grander. I think at least there, Jack the Ripper will still appear!"

"Because that's where Jack's from, too, right?"

"Yes."

Charlotte nodded,
