In the silent and dim movie theater, a "worm mass" composed of a bunch of mollusks is floating and gathering above the head of a bald areata man who has not noticed anything unusual.

These mollusks have translucent, illusory bodies that reflect a variety of colors when illuminated by the light in space, like soap bubbles blown up in the sun.

They squirmed around their fat bodies, intertwined with each other, and gathered into a disgusting mass.

At the front of them, resembling a head or mouthparts, is a rudimentary, distorted human face arranged with three black holes, shaped like a dwarf alien.

This is the alien creature named "Spirit Leech" by Ji Chunzao, which cannot be observed and detected by ordinary people, as if it is a monster in another dimension.

Among them were several leeches, which had inserted the tip of their mouthparts into the head of the hapless male spectator, and began to absorb the nutrients inside—that is, brain tissue, brain spinal cord.

The body of the spirit leech moved, sometimes expanding and sometimes shrinking, and the translucent skin floated with hideous blood, sucking it happily.

The real scene of alien creatures hunting on humans, the extremely terrifying picture, the impact is more than any horror movie......

However, the audience in the cinema was unaware. This eerie calm, pieced together with the predation scene, makes people feel that this world is so bizarre.

Ordinary people living on Earth, who are hardly aware of the existence of extraterrestrial creatures, are able to live a peaceful life in ignorance next to the dark abyss.

——This is the world in Ji Chunzao's eyes.

It was as if she was alone...... Sober world.

The girl's chest began to heav, her heart pounded, and her breathing became rapid.

Ji Chunzao tried very hard to maintain a serious and calm attitude in front of his companions, so as not to prevent him from panicking or simply running away.

But isn't she afraid?

No, of course not.

She was sitting in a chair with such a calm look, but she was all pretending.

Even if Ji Chunzao wasn't lying, that group of spirit leeches really wouldn't chase people, this was the conclusion she had come to through observation—but how could she not feel scared when she saw a big living person being eaten up in front of her?

That's it......

Ji Chunzao stared at the floating insect mass not far away, and didn't dare to blink, her hand on the arm couldn't help but move a little to the side, grabbing the wrist of the boy next to her.

If she saw that they had even the slightest tendency to get closer, she immediately grabbed Yan Jingxing and ran away, she thought to herself, even if she was misunderstood and distrusted, she had to do this.

I don't know if I should say lucky or not, as soon as the spirit leeches appeared, they locked on to the target and swarmed towards a middle-aged man in the front row.

Although he knew that this was not good, Ji Chunzao quietly breathed a sigh of relief; But on the other hand, her mood became more gloomy.

Although the girl can see alien creatures, she has nothing to stop them from running amok in the human world.

She couldn't even remind the other person that it was better to be seen as a fool or a madman; The most important thing is that once the mouthparts are invaded into the mind, the person is already hopeless, and rashly approaching will only lead to himself being entangled in leeches.

Since she was a child, this sense of powerlessness has always been with her, but she can't confide in anyone.

The loneliness and heaviness that cannot be understood by others make Ji Chunzao's heart continue to fall, and today, it has already accumulated a huge weight - it is not at all a heaviness that a teenage girl can bear.

Not only did he watch others being invaded by alien creatures, Ji Chunzao also had to let his companions see the consequences of being eaten out of his brain, only in this way could he be trusted by others......

With guilt and uneasiness, she whispered:

"Jing Xing, you can see it right away. Even if you can't see ......"

Ji Chunzao babbled in pieces, but found that there was no response from his side.

She turned her head and saw that the boy next to her was trembling slightly, as if he was seriously ill.

His forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his mouth was open and closed, like a fish on the shore.

"Yan Jingxing?!"

*

Yan Jingxing stiffly leaned against the chair behind him, his mouth was wide open and he couldn't make a sound, his eyes looked straight at the huge astronaut, and he came out of the screen little by little.

The astronauts appeared without making a sound, as if everything was happening in a vacuum without air.

His feet hit the ground, and he slowly straightened up.

The astronaut was so tall that when he stood up, he was as tall as a hall, and the shadow cast down obscured all the audience in the screening room.

This......

What the hell is this?!

Ghosts, ghosts, aliens...... Yan Jingxing can imagine these; But he instinctively felt that the huge astronaut in front of him was some kind of transcendent existence, and it was by no means comparable to ordinary supernatural phenomena.

He felt more like he was dreaming, or had strange hallucinations.

Then, Yan Jingxing heard the sound of dull breathing, "Huh-ha-", which was the kind of sound where oxygen was enclosed in the helmet and only he could hear.

The astronaut stood in silence, breathing silently, silently looking down on everyone in the screening room.

The bright black mirror couldn't see the eyes inside, but Yan Jingxing still felt that "he" was looking at him.

Yan Jingxing didn't dare to move.

After that, "he" slowly raised a hand and stretched it out towards the audience.

The boy held his breath.

"His" hand did not reach for the back row, but stopped when it touched the air in the front row, and his fingers began to make a kneading motion, as if they were touching something that could not be seen......

…… No, no, it's not that there's nothing.

Yan Jingxing's eyes widened again.

He saw that in the center of the astronaut's palm, there was a twisting and wriggling mass of insects, exuding an illusory brilliance. Compared to "his" huge body, it looks like a small bag.

The astronaut's fingers strained slightly.

"Bang!"

In this way, it was easy to pinch and explode the insect mass.

Yan Jingxing heard the explosion, like a balloon that had been blown over his head and inflated to the limit, but he wasn't sure if it was his own delusion.

Then, as soon as the astronaut took a step, he stepped directly over the audience and disappeared from his field of vision.

An inexplicable and astonishing emotion was emerging, driving Yan Jingxing to subconsciously stand up and look behind.

"Wait, wait!"

He wanted to call out to the astronaut.

And at that moment, a sharp pain hit Yan Jingxing's head.

*

“…… Huh? ”

When Ji Chunzao was anxious, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The girl is born with the ability to sense the presence of "anomalous radio waves" in the air, which is the key to her ability to confirm the time and location of the aliens' arrival.

But at this moment, the cluttered noise that had been constantly ringing in her ears suddenly disappeared, and she returned to her normal world.

She turned her head to see that the translucent mass of worms was gone.

Spirit leeches, gone?

Did you leave the earth after predation?

No, now is not the time to think about that......

"Wait, wait!"

She heard the boy next to her suddenly shout.

I saw him suddenly stand up from his seat, and then his body shook slightly as if his head had been smashed.

The boy grabbed his cheek and crouched down with a muffled grunt of pain.

"Jing Xing, Yan Jing Xing! What happened to you? ”

She grabbed Yan Jingxing's arm and shook it vigorously twice, but the other party's appearance was obviously in some kind of strange abnormality......

At this time, Yan Jingxing's strange appearance had already attracted the attention of the people around him.

Ji Chunzao looked around, at this time the film was not finished, but the audience's eyes had already been cast here.

She gritted her teeth, grabbed the boy's arm with both hands, and helped him to get up from the ground.

"Let's go, we need to get out of this place as soon as possible!"

……

Fifteen minutes later.

Ji Chunzao took a bottle of mineral water and walked out of the store.

She saw Yan Jingxing, who was sitting on a bench not far away, waving at her weakly, subconsciously speeding up her pace and trotting all the way to his side.

"Here you go."

Yan Jingxing, who was leaning on the back of the chair with a weak body, took the mineral water, unscrewed the lid and poured a few large mouthfuls into his throat, only then did he breathe a long sigh of relief, and the whole person seemed to come back to life.

"What happened to you?"

Ji Chunzao sat down beside him and asked cautiously.

"Could it be...... Sick? I mean, hereditary kind of ......"

"Huh? Ah, no, it's not. ”

Yan Jingxing wiped a handful of water stains from his mouth and sighed.

"I just saw it inside the cinema...... Very strange stuff. ”

He's still a little frightened. Moreover, the appearance of that huge astronaut caused a lot of mental stress on him, which was obviously abnormal, and the reason for this is unknown.

"Huh? Strange stuff, you see? ”

Ji Chunzao's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe his ears. Then she smiled happily, and her tone was full of surprise.

"Did you see the spirit leeches? Can you trust me now?! ”

"More than that."

Yan Jingxing settled down.

"I'm not seeing an alien, I'm seeing a person, no, should I say a ghost? ……”

Hearing this, the little girl couldn't help but shake her head and looked down on him with pity.

"Jing Xing, there are no ghosts in this world, you have to believe in science."

I really don't want to be told about it!

Yan Jingxing resisted the urge to complain. At this time, he suddenly realized a problem: the audience in the movie theater did not see the astronauts, nor did they see the spirit leeches, so what about Ji Chunzao, who has superpowers?

"Don't you see?"

"See what?"

"It's the giant astronaut who came out of the screen......"

“？”

Ji Chunzao tilted his head, revealing a confused expression.

She really didn't seem to see it.

Only you can see? What's going on here?

……

Yan Jingxing told everything he had seen and heard. It can be seen that this is the first time he has encountered a supernatural phenomenon, so he can't help but want to find resonance; In this regard, Ji Chunzao is naturally his predecessor.

But in fact, the little girl's mood is very complicated.

After comparing the description with Yan Jingxing, she could be sure that he had indeed seen the spirit leech.

For the first time, I met a peer who could see alien creatures like myself, and for the first time, I found a companion who had a common topic, which was a great development.

But why did all of a sudden, instead he became the "invisible" person?

Yan Jingxing didn't lie, she could still see this, including the sudden disappearance of the group of leeches, and the timing of the so-called "giant astronaut" pinching and exploding the insect group.

But......

Cosmonaut?

What does the appearance of "he" really mean?

Ji Chunzao, who was sitting in a chair, held her chin, her eyes unconsciously staring at the deep darkness and dim lights in the distance, and the streets of the town that seemed to be drifting in the tide of the night, she couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

It seems that the situation has become more complicated than expected.

"Harunzao, what I said is true......"

"I know. I believe you. ”

Ji Chunzao replied very simply.

If you can't even trust him, who has been suffering from the feeling of "not being believed by anyone", who can come?

For her, the two people who can see the same thing must be natural companions. As for the possible differences and differences......

"Just find out why!"

The girl slapped her knee and stood up cleanly. This sudden movement startled Yan Jingxing, who was secretly observing her reaction.

"Uh, what did you say?"

Ji Chunzao turned his head and smiled happily at him.

"We're not looking for aliens, let's go find the astronauts you call them!"

The flowing night brushed the girl's long hair, and she stood in the evening breeze as if she was about to fly with this strength, so excited, so free, so ......

Desirable.

Just hearing his words, you can make a decisive decision, this is her.

So, what about me?

Yan Jingxing lowered his head, he spread out his palm, and slowly clenched his five fingers.

The moment he saw the giant astronaut appear in the movie theater, in addition to the instinctive surprise and panic when he saw the giant object, he could also feel the ......

A curiosity, a strong curiosity about things that has never been seen before.

Yan Jingxing always felt that "he" must have something to say to himself, so he was desperate to stop at that time.

It's a feeling for no reason, but it's so real.

He shook his clenched fist vigorously and stood up from his chair as well.

"Okay, let's go!"

It's going to be a life-changing, incomparably magical night.

At the moment when he reached a consensus with the girl in front of him, Yan Jingxing suddenly had such a thought.
