43.Chapter 43
The cinema chosen by Luo Hongling is a newly opened cinema located in the new fashion square in the new urban area on the outskirts of the city, which is said to be the largest cinema in the city, with first-class equipment, and is surrounded by newly built high-end high-rise residential areas.
It's not because there's some kind of barrier planted here.
It's just because the house hasn't been sold.
Every city has such luxurious ghost towns, which look beautiful but have no residents.
"It's going to take another ten years for this place to develop, but the cinema is really good." Luo Hongling said while driving.
"It's just us driving on the road at this point, are you really sure that if we go to the movies, there won't be a charter effect?" I asked.
"What I want is the effect of a charter!" Luo Hongling said.
"So are we watching a Japanese horror movie or a Thai movie or an American movie or a Hong Kong movie today?" I asked again.
"It's the latest horror film made in the mainland, called Midnight Cinema." Luo Hongling said.
"I don't think you need to watch it, the horror movies in the mainland are all psychotic ghosts in the end, and there are no real ghosts at all."
"It's the atmosphere! It is said that this film is an in-house film, and it is only screened on a small scale in a few theaters, and it is not easy to get tickets. ”
"What an inside movie...... I turned my head to the window, the rain became lighter, and the view outside the window was clear, we had just passed a bus stop, and a woman in a yellow raincoat was standing waiting for the bus.
It's almost eleven o'clock, are there really buses passing through here?
After a while,
Luo Hongling's car drove past the second station, and I saw a woman in a yellow raincoat waiting for the train at the station.
"Luo Hongling! Are you lost? It was as if we had passed through the same bus stop! I said.
"How is that possible! I drove in a straight line, and there were no detours at all! Luo Hongling said.
"That's weird! At two stations in a row, a woman in a yellow raincoat could be seen, and they were all in the same posture. ”
"Are you wrong? I didn't feel any special aura. Luo Hongling said.
"The demon corpse trio didn't have any breath last time." I say.
“…… Anyway, don't worry, I'll get a qiē done. Luo Hongling was unmoved.
It seems that as long as Luo Hongling and I share a car, there will always be some moths.
Soon, Luo Hongling's car passed the third bus stop, and the woman finally disappeared.
The fashion square has finally arrived, quite wide and magnificent. Even late at night, the various neon lights are lit up, creating an exciting atmosphere. There were figures in the square, and it seemed that people had come to catch the midnight session.
In order to show their affection, today's young people really don't hesitate to go all the way to see the so-called midnight show.
Luo Hongling parked the car on the open-air parking apron. By this time, the rain had completely stopped. He removed the wheelchair from the back compartment, then opened the door and dragged me to the wheelchair.
"Strange, when was my car rubbed?" Luo Hongling complained when he put down the lid of the rear compartment.
I turned my wheelchair to look over and saw that a large piece of the rear hood of his car had been rubbed and recessed.
"Do you think this depression looks like a fist smashing into it?" I say.
"You're thinking too much." Luo Hongling locked the car and pushed me towards the cinema building in front of me.
At the center of the marble square is a huge sculpture of modern art - a pair of large hands holding a sphere with the symbol of the square engraved on it.
There is not a single tree in the entire circular square, only a modern building surrounded by glass mirrors.
The surrounding buildings are deliberately curved to cater to the square.
Directly in front of the sculpture is the largest cinema in the city.
The doors of the theater are quite magnificent, with the shape of the Parthenon gates, giving people a sense of oppression. Unexpectedly, although it was late at night, the number of people who came to watch the movie gradually increased, and there was still a queue to check the ticket when entering the door.
I finally passed through the ticket and entered the lobby, and the idea sign showed that there was only one movie in one screening room at midnight, and the name of the movie was not "Midnight Cinema", but "Divine Revelation". Other than that, there is no message of any movie.
Luo Hongling went to the vending machine to buy juice and left me in a corner of the hall.
Leaning back in my wheelchair and holding my chin in my hand, I looked at the magnificent movie hall.
I always feel that something is wrong.
I thought about it for half a minute, and then I realized that everyone who entered the hall was silent, and even the couples who seemed to be affectionate did not talk, making the whole hall seem silent.
What's even more strange is that among the people who came to see the movie, there were still old people in their seventies and eighties.
However, a group of children suddenly ran in from the outside holding hands, and their crisp laughter broke the dead silence of the entire hall.
As if their movement had brought color to the entire space, expressions began to appear on everyone's faces, and conversations began to become noisy.
The whole hall was restored to "normal".
"We're going to get in ten minutes." Luo Hongling delivered the juice to me, "Do you want to go to the toilet first?" ”
"Okay!" I say.
The toilets are at the back of the hall, and a curved passage leads to Guò.
The curved corridor is quite long, and the lighting is rather dim, which contrasts with the lighting of the hall. A gentle dim light emanates from small lamps on the side of the hallway ceiling, each illuminating only a small area.
The two walls are lined with movie posters from all over the ages.
Outside the door of the restroom is a row of elaborate sinks, but there are no mirrors.
"Do you want me to help you?" Luo Hongling asked.
"No need! I still have two more steps! I got up from my wheelchair and said.
So he stood outside and waited for me, and when I came out, he told me to wait for him in a wheelchair.
Wheelchairs are parked next to the sink.
Suddenly, the door to the women's bathroom opened, and a slender woman washed her hands before leaving with a blank face.
As she walked into the hallway, the lights on the roof suddenly crackled, and one was extinguished.
And then the second one.
The darkness seemed to chase the woman's footsteps far away.
I turned my head to look at the passageway.
The passage went dark—and the woman's footsteps clicked in the darkness.
Suddenly.
The footsteps stopped, followed by a strange laugh, what was the woman laughing at?
Luo Hongling finally opened the door and came out-
"Huh? Broken lights? He also noticed the darkness in the hallway.
However, as he finished saying this, the lights in the hallway suddenly turned on again in turn.
"Poor circuit contact?" Luo Hongling pushed me out of the bathroom.
"Stop! Luo Hongling! Did you find out? The poster on the wall has changed! ”
The poster boards, which used to be posters for the films, have been replaced by uniform prints in black and white, with strange content written in black letters—each poster has only one line of words, stretching to the end of the hallway, repeating the same sentence over and over again.
"Do you believe that there is a God?"
"Join the ranks of the gods."
"Give up your prejudices and become a citizen of the kingdom of God."
"He who believes in God will be saved."
"Those Who Don't Believe in God Will Go to Hell"
"Nothing Happens to Those Who Don't Believe in God"
"Punishment"
