Chapter 222 His Struggle and Resistance Are a Gimmick for Others to Make Money and a Pastime for Betting
Truman behaved normally.
He slept in the basement after his wife left.
But in fact, the clever Truman had already planned to escape.
He put the doll in the quilt, played the snoring sound of sleep on the recorder, used the table and chairs as a cover, and escaped from his "home" through the secret passage behind the map.
Soon, the director found something wrong and sent Truman's friends to check the situation, and found that Truman was missing.
The director made an urgent decision: to terminate the broadcast!
So, the global audience was shocked to find that this reality show that had been broadcast for nearly 30 years, and they had watched Truman's life for 19,013 days, was suspended? !
The audience called frantically.
The program team was also frantically looking for it.
The moon in the sky made a bang.
The silver-white disc suddenly turned into a dazzling searchlight, and a white light swept across the town coldly.
Under the night sky, the cold white light on the houses rose and fell.
The shrill alarm sounded suddenly, echoing in the empty streets, bringing an invisible sense of fear and tension.
The camera turns to the streets of the town.
Truman's parents, neighbors, colleagues, and strangers hold hands and form a human wall. Each of them holds a flashlight that emits white light. Like zombies, they move forward in unison.
The puppy that greets Truman every morning shows its fangs and looks ferocious and hideous under the command of the neighbors.
The sound of footsteps and barking dogs echoes in the theater, accompanied by tense and suffocating background music.
A girl hugs her boyfriend's arm tightly, "It's so creepy, is this a horror movie? Ah, you also have goose bumps."
"Uh, it's because the air conditioner is too cold."
The girl didn't care whether her boyfriend was lying or not. She hugged him tightly and continued, "Oh my God, it's so scary, people are really scarier than ghosts. From Truman's perspective, everyone around him seems to want to eat him."
"In Truman's opinion, they are ghosts, right?"
Not only the two of them, but almost all the audience felt terrified at this time.
From Truman's perspective, the whole world collapsed.
His mother wore heavy makeup on her face, and kept smiling in the dazzling searchlight.
And his father, who had been separated from him for 22 years, did not have a trace of anxiety on his face. He wore a straight suit and smiled and shouted: "Truman, it's me, I'm Dad, let's talk."
The audience in front of the screen felt their scalps tingling.
The world is fake, and the feelings are fake.
Everything is fake.
If I were Truman, I would probably believe my ex-wife and suspect that I was mentally ill, right?
...
On the screen, the search continued.
Seeing that it was too dark to find anyone, the director made a decision: sunrise!
On the horizon, below the moon, the sun suddenly rose.
The golden light instantly filled the entire town.
The light was not warm, but instead carried an unsettling sense of urgency, as if it was blocking something.
But even so, Truman was still not found.
The director was silent for a while, slowly raised his head, "The sea surface has not been checked yet."
This time, they successfully found Truman.
He was sailing a sailboat, heading far away, fighting against the world, fighting for freedom!
The director immediately decided to continue broadcasting!
Adjust the lens to make him look like a hero.
The audience watched TV with great interest when they saw the program resume.
They excitedly bet on whether he could get out.
"2:1, he can't get out."
"I'm in too!"
At this time, Truman took out a piece of paper from his pocket, on which was a pieced-together photo of his first love.
In a movie theater in New York.
The blonde girl had tears in her eyes, raised her hand to cover her mouth and sighed: "My God, this movie can really be enshrined in the gods."
Since they found Truman, she really had a thought every three to five seconds.
All of Truman's struggles and struggles were the director's gimmicks to increase the ratings, and were a pastime for the audience to bet on.
Cruel! Irony!
And the next moment, she was melted by Truman's smile.
But just after being moved for a second, the damn director jumped out and said that the shot was perfect.
Why not die!
But before she became popular, Truman took out the patchwork photo of his first love.
The first love sat in front of the TV, watching this scene with joy and tears.
The girl raised her hand and wiped her eyes.
Oh my God, so sad, tears.
In this fake world, he used other people's faces to piece together his lover.
The love behind the fake photos is the only truth in his life.
I envy this kind of sincere love. Woo woo woo.
Just when she was crying for other people's love.
On the screen, the program team has begun to think of ways to stop Truman.
The director wanted to send another boat, but found that no one in this world could drive a boat, because they were actors and fake boatmen.
So he decided to use the weather control system.
Concentrate the storm on the sailboat, forcing Truman to be afraid to return.
On the sea, heavy rain poured down, the wind was howling, and thunder and lightning were raging.
Truman's boat swayed in the wind and rain.
A bolt of lightning struck.
The sail broke, and Truman was swept away by the huge waves. The waves came one after another.
Truman tried his best to grab the edge of the boat in the huge waves, supported his body and stood on the boat and shouted to the sky: "Is that it? You have to kill me!"
The director stared at the screen with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"Increase the wind!"
Other members of the production team immediately advised: "Stop the broadcast." "The whole world is watching, you can't let him drown in front of the audience!"
The director didn't care.
Truman was born in front of the audience, and of course he can die in front of the audience. !
Others were unwilling to increase the wind.
The director did it himself.
A huge wave higher than the sail came over and swallowed the entire ship directly.
Truman fell into the sea and gradually lost his strength.
On the screen, the audience in front of the TV stared at the picture quietly and attentively. Everyone was curious, can he survive?
Off the screen, the audience's reaction was completely opposite.
