Chapter 15

"Good news, Henry, good news." Marian said excitedly on the phone.

Henry, who was cooking dinner halfway, stewing meat and waiting for the rice cooker to cook rice, received such a phone call without rhyme or reason.

He looked at the clock on the wall for a while and asked curiously: "I thought it was off-duty time, so you wouldn't handle work. Don't go home early to rest."

"Guild agents are also agents, have you ever seen an agent who has off-duty time." Marian complained. She added: "And this is good news related to you, don't you want to know early?"

"Oh, sweetheart, I care more about your quality of life, don't work yourself out. Of course, I'm also very happy to hear good news, and even happier that you can think of me in the first place."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I'm now jealous of the girls who were deceived by your mouth before." Marian clicked her tongue on the phone: "Could it be that you are not lonely at all now, just want to send me away quickly."

"How is this possible, I am a poor man who has to cook for himself even if he wants to eat. Then watch the soap opera on TV and spend an evening. That boredom, can you imagine it."

Although the program at night was said casually, "boredom" was indeed Henry's feeling. Who told the entertainment of this era to be too monotonous for him who had experienced crossing over.

At night, his activities were usually listening to music while fiddling with the computer. Whether it was messing with programs or systems, although Henry could enjoy it, what he gained more was a sense of achievement, not fun. It's a different feeling.

"What a pity, I'm waiting for the person I'm dating to pick me up, so I stayed in the guild. You are acting pitiful now, it's no use to me, baby. It's too late. I already gave you the phone number, if you had made an appointment earlier, I couldn't help but consider you."

"Haha." Henry laughed twice awkwardly.

Since learning the way American men talk in Alaska, Henry did have signs of letting himself go, but he didn't dare to let go of his chastity.

Do you know what is most popular in the United States in the 90s?

Answer: AIDS.

DC Superman has had the experience of catching a cold, although it is not a canonical work. It also shows that under certain conditions, Kryptonians who have been exposed to the yellow sun are not immune to viruses.

Then does Henry still dare to jump?

His Kryptonian dog eyes have X-ray perspective function, which is correct, but this is at most seeing how many bone nails others have hit; otherwise, it is seeing shallower, which is what color the bottom pants are.

If it is cancer, thrombosis, and other diseases with obvious pathological characteristics, maybe it can be seen. But wanting to see if there is an infection with a certain virus, you are making things difficult for Kryptonians!

Henry, who squatted in the hospital for two days and walked through various wards, can clearly say that there are many diseases that Kryptonians' super eyes cannot see.

If combined with super smell and other abilities, the range of identifiable diseases will indeed expand, but there are still blind spots.

As for discussing whether Kryptonians' super vision can see things the size of viruses, this point is somewhat meaningless.

Bacteria are okay, do you know how fast viruses iterate and mutate?

One night can allow the bacteria in the mouth to alternate at least three to five generations, perhaps originally harmless ones will become harmful. This is also one of the reasons why you should brush your teeth and rinse your mouth when you wake up in the morning.

The iteration speed of viruses is only faster. Wanting to confirm a certain disease by observing the appearance of the virus is really somewhat difficult for aliens.

Perhaps there are detection methods that can be achieved by applying the Kryptonians' own abilities, but Henry feels that continuing to study knowledge in this area is somewhat drilling into the horns.

In short, even if it is not the HIV virus, it is latent syphilis without obvious onset characteristics, and Henry cannot identify it.

So Henry really doesn't want to indulge his chastity in a place like Hollywood. Especially here, it is also adjacent to the San Fernando Valley, don't treat Kryptonians as immune to all poisons.

Besides, mouth flowers are mouth flowers, do you really think you are a bulldozer?

If you owe too many cannon debts without clear prices, wouldn't that violate his original intention of living a sleazy life. These will become his weaknesses, and if those organizations that have nothing to do discover them, will they morally endure not using them?

It's better to believe that this universe is a fairy tale version of the universe where pigs turn into Spider-Ham and don't die.

So for Marian's hint, Henry chose to laugh it off again and muddle through. He turned to say: "I said sweetheart, don't keep me in suspense. What exactly is the good news you want to say?"

"Alright, if you really can't wait to get rid of me."

"Hey, wrong, I'm heartbroken. I just don't want to disturb your date. This is too unacquainted."

At the same time, Henry heard a man shout on the phone: "Sweetheart baby, I'm here. Are you ready?"

Marian covered the microphone and shouted: "Sweetheart, wait for me, I have a business call." But in fact, Henry could still hear the sound.

Marian's voice, which returned to the phone, was slightly frustrated, saying: "Alright, I really can't delay too long. The good news I want to say is that the production team of Under Siege has notified that you have been hired as their extra actor."

"Oh, this is definitely good news. I think I can have a good dream today." Henry said happily.

"So remember to come to the guild to get the materials in the next few days, and you will enter the studio soon. This time they require following the group throughout."

"Oh, a very special requirement." Henry raised his eyebrows and said.

Under normal circumstances, only the protagonist team that takes the film salary needs to stay in the crew team for the entire filming time. If there is a need for cooperation in behind-the-scenes work, such as promotional interviews, or film dubbing, etc., they also have to show up.

If an actor wants to do other things, or has other invitations, they must ask the director or producer for leave.

And extra actors are more special, most of them are paid daily or hourly.

That is to say, if the production team wants to save money, they can concentrate on filming scenes that require extra actors, shortening the time for using extra actors. Or if there is a relevant filming plan today, they will temporarily call people over.

In this way, there is no need to pay the remuneration of these extra actors during the entire filming period.

Even if called temporarily, if someone can't come, will there be any obstacles to changing people temporarily? If there is, they wouldn't be extra actors, right?

So for what Marian said, the condition that the other party requires following the group throughout, Henry was a bit surprised.

But surprise is surprise, some production teams are rich and powerful, dare to use people like this, who wouldn't be happy to take the salary for nothing and go to the studio to be in a daze?

But for the detailed situation, we still have to look at the contract and materials sent by the other party. Henry smiled and said: "Understood, I will go to the guild tomorrow to get the materials."

"Okay, I'm hanging up."

"Wish you a happy evening."

"It's a pity the object is not you." Marian said regretfully.
