National Day is not too cold for all parts of the country, but there are very few people still wandering the streets near the early hours of the morning, and there are almost only a few workers who work late at night and a few cafes.

Cui Jian stayed at home for almost a week, he only came out of the cave tonight, invited friends to get together for hot pot and ate until 9 o'clock in the evening, and then went to watch a Hollywood blockbuster, and now it is 11:50 when he comes out of the movie theater.

The shopping malls where Yida Cinema is located have basically closed, every store is closed, and the beautiful windows have lost their color.

"Let's go, it's so late, let's go back to our respective homes! Friend Duan Deyuan yawned and stood at the elevator entrance waiting for the elevator, "I really don't know why you want to watch this movie in the middle of the night." No matter how much I told you to go out the other day, I refused to go out. ”

Cui Jian looked at the time on his phone and said with a smile: "Don't rush home, let's go to the bookstore below and take a look, and buy two books by the way." ”

There were only a few of them left in the elevator, empty and a little scared.

After Guo An pressed the LG floor, he complained: "You don't sleep in the middle of the night, what kind of books are you going to buy! Besides, what time is this, how can the bookstore still be open!"

It's almost early in the morning, and probably only barbecue stalls, KTVs and 24-hour convenience stores are still open, and the rest of the small shops will not be filmed.

"I specifically asked, people are in a special situation today. Do you know that the author of this book is about to release a new book in the early hours of the morning, and many people are waiting for it. Cui Jian is one of them, but he knows how to plan his time and does not wait directly in the bookstore.

After eating hot pot and watching Hollywood blockbusters, step on it comfortably, not to mention how comfortable it is!

The orange street lamps illuminate the usually lively pedestrian street, the plastic bags on the ground are blown all over the ground by the night wind, and a few roses have been trampled on for an unknown number of feet.

Even though they are all closed, the signs of these shops are bright one by one, and because of these light pollution, there are hardly any stars in the city.

Duan Deyuan zipped up his coat, and he pointed to the crowd in front of him in surprise and said, ", what are you doing over there? There are so many people in the middle of the night, it shouldn't be a group fight? Let's take a walk and watch the excitement!"

"Fight in a group? It's easy to get caught up in the excitement, and when the time comes, it's troublesome to beat me up together. Guo An muttered, at this time, he just wanted to get as far away as possible.

Cui Jian ignored his two rare and strange friends, did those people look like people fighting in a group?

Obviously, they are all polite and polite, which is very different from the gangsters in society.

The door of this bookstore is already overcrowded, there are students with backpacks, couples snuggling together, friends who get together to discuss the plot, and more people are holding their mobile phones to recognize their relatives!

It looks more like a large-scale netizen meeting, usually they communicate online, and now they report each other's code names are group nicknames or forum accounts, like spies who are secretly connecting.

When I got closer, I realized that these people were all talking about the plot, but it wasn't limited to the upcoming one, after all, there were no clues other than the title and cover of the book.

"Anyway, have you read the reports on the Internet? It is said that there are quite a lot of easter eggs in the Youth Pie, and I will have to brush them a few times to find them when the time comes. ”

"Look at it! It's such a boast, this wave must be very stable. ”

"It is said that Warner Bros. wants "Life of Pi" to win the Olympics, do you think Mr. Zhang has any hope of winning the Oscar?"

"I guess it's very suspenseful, only by winning the best film, Mr. Zhang can go on stage, and not everyone will cite one. ”

"I watched several movies that he changed this year, and they are all very reliable, there are no bad movies, it's so rare!"

"Are you still chasing "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"? This time of the Republic of China is particularly compatible with the elements of tomb robbing and touching gold!"

"I've watched "The Lord of the Rings" no less than five times, and I especially like the human emperor in it. actually asked Batman to play Aragorn, this crew's casting is a bit good. ”

"Compared to movies and TV series, I still like to read books. As long as he comes out with a copy, I'll buy one. ”

"Dude, didn't you add our Star City fan club, did you? You can add a group chat, which is all about discussing the plot, sharing some reading experiences and related interesting things, and notifying each other of activities if there are activities. ”

Cui Jian blended in effortlessly, he wanted to squeeze in, only to find that the bookstore was full of people!

The inside wants to come out, the outside wants to go in, and the order is a little chaotic.

A young man in a black hoodie squeezed his neck red, "Let's come out! ”

"Yes, it's more time-saving if it's orderly. ”

Cui Jian patted this person's shoulder, and at the same time leaned sideways to make a little gap and said, "Dude, are there really a lot of them in there?"

The young man nodded: "That's right, I saw a lot of stacks full of them, they dare to sell books at midnight, they must be ready." Let's let me borrow it!"

The bookstore is small and understaffed, and there is no redundant staff to maintain order, and everyone is making a lot of noise.

Guo An and Duan Deyuan stood outside the bookstore and looked at each other, they didn't expect that selling books at midnight could be so popular!

"This scene made me want to go in and buy a copy. ”

"Hahaha, I'll take a Douyin first, I don't know if I will become an Internet celebrity. ”

The guy pointed his phone at the bustling bookstore, and at the same time introduced the situation in half-baked Mandarin: "It's past twelve o'clock in the evening, and everyone must not know what these people are robbing." They didn't grab salt, they didn't grab iPhones, they were grabbing a new book released by a writer named Zhang Chu, look at this posture!"

The bustle of the bookstore contrasts sharply with the emptiness of the street.

About ten minutes later, Cui Jian walked out with a book in his hand and smiled, "Look at my trophy, if you go and buy a copy too, I guess I won't need to sleep tonight after reading a page or two." ”

Guo An rolled his eyes, "Who is the woman on this cover? ”

"It's supposed to be the heroine. I'll explain the plot to you after I'm done, it's going to be very good, and it's said that more than three million copies have been sold worldwide now!"

Cui Jian knew that Zhang Chu was very good at horror, human nature, and the atmosphere of reading, and the alarm clock, Red Bull, coffee, betel nut, and cigarettes tomorrow morning were all ready, and he had to watch them all night tonight.

"Forget it, I'm afraid to read these books in the middle of the night. Duan Deyuan pointed to the underground garage over there and said, "You guys go with me to get the car, I'm worried that there are murderers in the parking lot." ”

"Phew! Everyone is going to attack beautiful women who are alone, what are you afraid of as a big man who picks your feet!"

"I don't care, what if I catch a glimpse of my kidney?"

Cui Jian said with a wicked smile: "There is a character in this book who likes to eat people, maybe it is adapted from a real case." ”
