The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

When it came time to the front desk to pay the bill, Hua Cub rummaged through the pockets of her clothes, swiped seven letter (provocation) cards one after another, and finally settled the bill.

The female cashier smiled: "Miss must be a frequent customer of major banks, but I didn't seem to have seen the letter (provocation) card of China Merchants Bank just now, but I know a friend of China Merchants Bank, if you are interested, I can ask him to help you get a high-limit credit (provocation) card." ”

Hua Xiao'er sighed and said, "Originally, I also had a card from China Merchants Bank, but half a year ago, due to overdraft, the card that was maxed out after the deadline was stopped. ”

Listening to her "glorious" history, the cashier's face unconsciously showed a surprised expression, and his eyes revealed a bit of a strange light, as if he had regretted what he said.

"Look at what! I've never seen the 'Sunlight Clan' or the 'Moonlight Clan'! Hua Cub shouted, "Early consumption is the fashion of the moment, and I love women the most Shopaholic, haven't you heard of it?" ”

The cashier gasped when he heard this, and nodded involuntarily: "Miss, you really opened my eyes today!" ”

Wan Dingding lived in the student dormitory of the hospital, and after saying goodbye to the three of them, she went back alone overnight to make her questionnaires that had just been revised by Xie Sanqiu.

"It's been a long time since I've eaten so full!" Hua Cub patted her slightly bulging belly, and suddenly raised her voice and said, "You two don't want to leave me alone!" I'm a man with cleaner pockets than my face now, and if you two leave, I'm going to put on a 'fat cat wandering'!" ”

Long Xirui smiled faintly: "You invite us to a meal, but we have to support you for a lifetime, right?" ”

"Uh-huh!" Hua Cub'er had a natural look on her face, "There is no free dinner in the world, so this will not be my last supper." ”

"Isn't this going to be the most expensive dinner we've ever had?" Xie Sanqiu pretended to be nervous and said.

Hua Cub said noncommittally: "If you are a friend, you should stick a knife in your friend's ribs, even if you can't stick a knife in your ribs, you must at least put a knife in your friend's pockets!" ”

As he spoke, Hua Cub shook the letters (provocations) with the cards, inserted them into the pockets of Long Xirui and Xie Sangqiu respectively, and said, "Whether these cards can continue to be used or not, I can count on the two of you." ”

"I've seen psychological problems, but I've never seen such a big psychological problem." Xie Sanqiu looked at Long Xirui and said, "Then again, do you have a habit of adopting stray cats?" ”

Long Xirui blinked back and forth, and said, "I remember that "Fat Cat Wandering" is very good, and the new version of "Fat Cat Wandering" must be very attractive. ”

Hua Cub angrily stretched out her hands and slapped Long Xirui and Xie Sangqiu on the shoulders, and said coquettishly: "Can you two be a little worse?" ”

In a blink of an eye, seeing the big screen on the skyscraper in the distance playing the gunfight scene from the recent movie trailer, Hua Xiaoer took advantage of the topic and said: "It would be nice to have a gun in my hand now." ”

After the joke passed, the night was getting darker, and Xie Sanqiu kindly invited Long Xirui and Hua Xiao'er to live in her house. Her home was not far from the hospital, and all three of them were full of food and drink, so they decided to go back for a walk.

Xie Sanqiu lives in a small-looking and elegant building, far from the road, and downstairs is a garden, although there are no brightly colored flowers in the early winter, but a few pine and cypress trees still reflect a green atmosphere.

Opening the door, the room was filled with a faint fragrance, and the unique wallpaper made Long Xirui's eyes shine.

Compared with paint, the process involved in wallpaper is more complex, so it is also a big test for the aesthetic vision of homeowners.

The antique tables and chairs, and the windows of the wooden pavilion make the room seem extraordinarily quiet, and the noise and impetuosity of the metropolis are completely shut out with a single door, and all that is left is peace and quiet.

Hua Cub didn't see it at all, and flew to the sofa in the living room and lay down.

Xie Sanqiu said first, the premise of her "adopting stray cats" is that she cannot maliciously change the furnishings in the room. She also lit the light in the bathroom by the way, and warned Hua Cub "with bad intentions" that it should not be convenient anywhere.

The impatient Hua cub scratched the skin of the sofa with her teeth and claws, and grinned exaggeratedly: "I know! ”

Long Xirui left the small living room with a smile and walked into the spacious study, the bright but not dazzling light created a comfortable and pleasant atmosphere, and the exquisite piano in front of her and the full bookcase added a bit of bookish atmosphere.

Hua Cub followed in and walked around, but did not linger for a moment, as if it was too cold here, so that she did not even have the slightest desire to stay.

Obviously, the sofa opposite the TV in the living room was a better place for her to stay.

When Long Xirui and Xie Sangqiu walked out of the study, they found Hua Xiao'er lying in front of the TV cabinet, stretching out her arms and turning over something.

"You didn't misplace the fish tank, did you?" Long Xirui quipped.

Hearing the two of them coming, Hua Cub straightened up and said to Xie Sangqiu: "I didn't expect you to be a horror movie lover!" ”

As she spoke, she held up a dozen discs in her right hand, and Long Xirui saw that the one in front of her was the one that the three of them had watched at the beginning of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" on Deng Haoran's car DVD.

"I told you weren't allowed to mess with the furnishings in my room." Xie Sanqiu stepped forward and grabbed the disc, and at the same time defended, "These are not my hobbies, they are my job." ”

"How to study horror films, is it a psychiatrist's job?" Hua Cub'er asked with round eyes.

Xie Sanqiu put the discs in their original order and put them back in the distance, saying, "What I want to study is not horror films, but fear psychology." ”

"Fear!" Hua Cub repeated, "This word sounds terrifying. ”

"Some psychologists believe that fear is the beginning of all evil." Xie Sanqiu said, "Because fear can induce defensiveness, and unnecessary defensive behavior will lead to suspicion and misunderstanding between people, misunderstanding produces dissatisfaction, long-term dissatisfaction accumulates to a certain extent into hatred, hatred leads to violent tendencies, and finally when violence is put into action, it becomes a crime that requires legal intervention." ”

"Fear is so terrible!" Long Xirui said.

"Actually, psychology itself is a terrible thing." Xie Sanqiu added, "Because in this world, human psychology is the most difficult thing to be satisfied. ”

Long Xirui thought for a while and said, "You mean greed? ”

"A lot of times, greed and aggressiveness aren't so easy to distinguish. Sometimes, in order to satisfy a certain psychology of their own, some people will sacrifice a lot of precious things without mercy and knowingly. Xie Sanqiu paused for a moment and continued, "For example, sacrificing life with war, sacrificing the environment for profit, and sacrificing humanity because of the desire for power. Throughout the history of human development, when people's physiological needs can be easily satisfied, the more human psychology is contrary to the original pure nature of human beings, and even infinitely distorted. ”

Long Xirui nodded and said: "It seems that it is easy to share hardships, but it is difficult to share wealth and wealth." ”

"That's right! The richer you are, the more obsessed you are with possession; The more greedy you are, the more insatiable you are. Hua Cub suddenly exclaimed, "That's not how corruption comes about, is it?" ”

"The word 'corruption' is a bit of a stretch." Xie Sanqiu said, "But what you are talking about is the inevitability of the existence of class society, class can be said to be the product of human selfishness, even if it is a democratic country, as long as classes exist, there can be no absolute equality, so if human beings want to enter communism, they must first learn to be selfless." ”

Hua Cub snorted and said, "You are talking far away!" Out of reach! ”

At this time, Long Xirui said to Xie Sangqiu: "I didn't expect you to see so much connotation from these horror movies that many people dare not touch!" ”

Xie Sanqiu said: "In fact, horror films are just one of the categories of film genre films, but bringing fear to the audience is not the patent of horror films, in many other types of movies, there will be many adrenaline surges, heartbeat bridges, or adding horror elements to make the film more exciting." ”

"In this way, those who like to watch horror movies are just looking for excitement!" Long Xirui reasoned.

"Saying that may inevitably lead to those who make horror films narrowly categorized as boring." Xie Sanqiu said, "But horror films are actually considered to be the genre films that are closest to the characteristics of film art. Because movies need to create suspense, and only suspense can make the audience have strong expectations. Hitchcock, known as the master of suspense, was the first to discover the decisive significance of suspense in film language, so his subsequent in-depth exploration of film language such as montage had a profound impact on the development of film. In addition, some world-class film masters, such as Polanski, Quentin Tarantino, Peter Jackson, etc., also have a soft spot for horror films, and have used horror films to explore and challenge the limits of film language......"

"You were referring to Peter Jackson, the director of the Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Hobbit?" Long Xirui interrupted Xie Sangqiu and asked.

"That's him." Xie Sanqiu replied, "In his early debut, he made a horror film called 'Zombies Play Across the Line', which turned out to be recognized as a successful work of his talent, and won a total of 16 awards at film festivals around the world. ”

Long Xirui nodded and said: "No wonder some terrifying elements can be found in his later works "The Lord of the Rings" and "King Kong". ”

Hua Cub listened curiously, so she took advantage of the conversation between the two and pulled out a few more discs from the TV cabinet.

"Wow! This must be scary! Hua Xiao'er said and picked up a disc, only to see that the cover poster was a bloody broken leg that had been amputated from the knee, and the name of the film was "Chainsaw".

"You really have an eye, it's a series known as a box office miracle in the history of horror films, and seven films have been made in one go." Xie Sangqiu said.

"Isn't it!" Hua Cub turned the disc to herself, and said as she watched it, "Even horror movies can be made into a series, and they are about to catch up with "Harry Potter"." ”

The broken leg on the cover of the disc flashed in front of Long Xirui's eyes, but it suddenly reminded her of the recent serial amputation case and the "Boot Terminator" who was noisy by the media.
