Chapter 0714 – The Intersection of Worlds
”Akimi! Come out and play!”
The girl downstairs waved hard, a smile on her face, looking excited as if something good had happened to her.
The protagonist didn’t answer back, the camera framed the scene coldly for a second in a hollow, even a little cold presentation, and then the protagonist closed the window.
That gloomy feeling did not disappear just because the window was closed, but instead lingered around the protagonist’s body, and I don’t know how the director filmed it, but just this depressing feeling has already surpassed the majority of horror movies on the market.
The crowded room seems like a cage, and when the window is closed, it seems as if there is cold sea water coming from all around, drowning the protagonist.
The camera shifted aimlessly around the room, and suddenly the girl’s voice came from behind her again.
”Akimi! Akimi!”
The camera slowly panned behind her, a girl’s face was pressed against the window, she was pushing so hard that her features had been deformed, as if she was trying to squeeze the glass with her own face.
”Akimi! Come out and play!”
The big red dress was bright and colorful, creating both a contrast and a foil to the cloudy sky.
The protagonist lived on the fourth floor, and just now when she had just looked out, that girl was clearly standing downstairs.
Such a weird scene suddenly appeared, but the protagonist did not show any abnormality, as if she had already gotten used to it.
The camera was calmly turning in other directions, because it was a first person perspective, the camera actually represented the female protagonist’s line of sight.
It skimmed over the messy desk, over the dirty clothes piled up on the floor, and finally stopped at the bedroom door.
”Akimi! Come out and play!”
There was a girl’s face on the glass of the room’s door window, and she was clinging to it, her big red dress reflecting the glass in red as well.
Breathing becomes rapid, the protagonist suddenly grabs the scissors on the table and raises them upwards.
Since it’s the first view, the scene gives the viewer the feeling as if the scissors were stabbing themselves.
It was too fast, and the shift between the movement made it impossible to react.
”Pah!”
The bedroom door was slammed open and a middle-aged man ran in, grabbing the protagonist’s hand and snatching away the scissors.
”What are you doing again!”
The camera shakes and the sky spins as the heroine is pushed back against the desk.
”It’s hard enough for me and your mom! Please don’t torture us anymore, okay!”
The audience couldn’t see the heroine’s expression and demeanor at this moment, but they were able to feel the heroine’s state at this moment from the middle-aged man’s expression, people are a magical creature, and this kind of resonance seemed to have been engraved into the deepest part of the bloodline of the community.
”What’s going on?” Footsteps sounded hurriedly, a middle-aged woman ran into the room, she was very haggard, and as soon as she saw the heroine, her eyes reddened almost instantly.
Without saying more, the middle-aged woman squeezed past her husband and hugged the heroine.
”You saw her again?”
The woman was facing the camera, and the audience knew that she was talking to the heroine, and from that angle, everyone could clearly see any subtle expression on that mother’s face.
There was pain, uneasiness, annoyance, but more than anything else, there was heartache.
Without the heroine’s reply, that mother already understood, and she hugged the heroine tightly.
”Why are you suffering like this? How on earth can you cure this disease?”
The camera moved away from the heroine’s mother and refocused on the sky outside the window.
It was cloudy and depressing as if one could not breathe.
Eyes slowly close as the screening room is plunged into complete darkness with no light at all.
The man looked nervous as he put his legs together and asked Chen Ge in a low voice, “Why is there no sound? Is the machine broken?”
Without waiting for Chen Ge to reply, an eerie soundtrack entered his ears, and the eye blinked and slowly opened.
The camera moved blankly, and the protagonist was still lying in her bedroom, with her parents and a strange man standing next to her.
That newly appeared man was hunched over and had been standing with his back to the main female character, and since it was the first view, the viewer couldn’t see the man’s proper face when the main female character couldn’t.
”Doctor, what kind of disease does Wen Yu have? Why does she always say she can see those strange things?” The heroine’s mother looked worried.
”Yes, doctor, what’s wrong with my daughter?”
”I’m not a doctor, I’m merely engaged in related research, you two don’t be anxious for now, I already understand the basic situation.” The man who was called the doctor, his tone of voice made Chen Ge feel somewhat familiar, this kind of thing of hearing one’s familiar voice in a movie was very rare.
That doctor gestured for the heroine’s parents to sit on the chair, “This is a very special case for her, so I’ll briefly say what I think.”
The doctor took out a black notebook from his bag, “You should know that people live in three dimensions, right?”
Both of the heroine’s parents shook their heads, not really sure what the doctor was trying to say.
The doctor flipped through the notebook and found a page he had torn out of a certain book, “To put it simply, three-dimensional space is our human world, possessing the concepts of length, width, and height; while four-dimensional space, is the addition of time as an axis on top of three-dimensional space, in fact, the condition that constrains us to enter four-dimensional space is ‘time ‘, because of the existence of time, human beings in the three-dimensional space can only make a choice about a certain point of divergence in a ‘disposable’ life, and this choice will also be a completely independent choice. In other words, each life experience is an independent three-dimensional world, and all three-dimensional worlds are arranged on a timeline, thus creating a four-dimensional world.”
The doctor’s words on the screen, not to mention the heroine’s parents, even Chen Ge as the audience listened to them in a cloudy manner, but on the contrary, the blind man next to him suddenly fell silent and became much more honest.
”But what does this have to do with my daughter’s illness?” The heroine’s mother loved her daughter so much that she didn’t even listen carefully to the doctor’s words.
”Let me solemnly reiterate to you once again, your daughter is not sick, countless accidents happen every day in this world, from the smallest quantum entanglement to the largest expansion of the universe, many of which we can’t say for the time being ……”
”Doctor, just tell me directly, how to improve my daughter’s condition okay? Which medicines to take? My family is in a very poor condition, but we can still go out of our way for her.” The heroine’s father spoke directly to interrupt, and they all acted very real, so real that it didn’t seem like they were acting, but rather recording everything that happened in the past.
”Your daughter is not sick, her eye was an accident.” The doctor was still standing with his back to the camera, “Three-dimensional worlds arranged on a timeline occasionally overlap, and your daughter Chang Wenyu’s eyes are the intersection of the two worlds, that’s why she can see things that you can’t see!”
The movie was still playing, Chen Ge was originally just doing a quest, but he didn’t expect to be captivated by the plot of this movie.
”Why did the doctor and the heroine’s parents call the heroine Chang Wenyu? That ghost outside the window is clearly calling out for Akemi, right? This doctor’s explanation is also a bit interesting, I’ll memorize mine, although I don’t understand it too well, I might be able to use it in the future.”
