Chapter 0716: Come and play!

　　The camera moved away from Akemi and moved to the old man carrying a basket of vegetables.

　　The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the old lady, and as she drifted away, it finally settled on her half shadow.

　　Seeing this scene, Chen Ge was a little bit unable to sit still, he didn’t know how the director filmed this, the movie of the same table was filmed a long time ago, when the special effects technology was not yet developed, but this scene in the movie appeared incomparably real.

　　”Could it be that this really wasn’t a filmed movie?”

　　Shadows had extraordinary significance to life, at least Chen Ge thought so.

　　”The heroine’s left eye is able to see the anomalies of a living person’s shadow, right? Was there a shadow of the heroine’s parents when the lens first started?”

　　The previous movie clip flashed in his mind, and there was no shadow of the heroine’s parents, including the doctor, in the lens, but this could be because of the bad weather.

　　At the beginning of the movie, the sky had been dark and cloudy without a single ray of sunlight, so it was normal to see no shadows.

　　After Akimi and the old lady left, the heroine returned to her house, she took out her key and opened the door.

　　”Shizuku? Why are you back so late today?” Wen Yu’s mother hurriedly ran out from the kitchen, her expression as she looked at Wen Yu carried a hint of heartache and an indescribable odd emotion, that emotion wasn’t quite the same as a normal parent, something Chen Ge hadn’t been able to see until now.

　　The heroine did not reply, as soon as she entered her home, she completely lost her vigor and seemed to feel uncomfortable even breathing.

　　Pushing open her bedroom door, the heroine ran straight into the bedroom.

　　”This child ……”

　　”I’ve asked someone else, our daughter is probably sick.” The heroine’s father put down the newspaper, pointed to his head, his voice lowered: “I’ve already contacted the doctor, so I’ll bring him over on the weekend to give our daughter a look.”

　　”How much is it estimated to cost?”

　　”Seeing a doctor is the most important thing now, you don’t want our daughter to be unhappy all the time, right?”

　　The voices of her parents came from outside the door, but the heroine didn’t care at all what they said.

　　The camera representing the heroine’s line of sight moved from the heroine’s parents to the ceiling, then the screen went black and the heroine closed her eyes again.

　　”This movie seems to be recording something, but if everything is real, the timeline seems to be a bit off.” Chen Ge touched the blind man’s shoulder, “What do you think?”

　　”I can’t see, if you’re done watching, let’s hurry up and leave, I don’t want to stay here for a minute. Brother ah, I hear you talking and you don’t sound like a bad person, just let me go, don’t toss me anymore.”

　　The blind man’s back was already wet, he kept his eyes closed, but just by listening to the voice, he was already scared enough.

　　”The movie is already halfway through, it’ll be over soon, bear with me a little longer.” Chen Ge looked at the screen, the colors of the picture became brighter, this section was also recorded from the perspective of the female lead, mainly about some small things that happened between her and Akimi.

　　The female lead was quiet, almost rarely opening her mouth and not speaking when she could.

　　Akemi’s personality is the exact opposite of the heroine’s, with a big grin that takes nothing to heart.

　　She does things impulsively and recklessly, but it is probably because of this energy that the relationship between her and the heroine continues to grow closer.

　　Two people with such a huge difference in personality became friends.

　　What surprised the people around them even more was that both of them continued to make progress in their academic performance, something that even Mr. Cao had not expected.

　　He originally just could not wipe the face, to cope with a little, I did not expect the two worst learners in the remedial class became the same table, but actually produced such a wonderful “reaction”.

　　The screen was getting brighter and brighter, and the overall shooting style was completely different from just now, obviously it was a horror movie, but it gave Chen Ge a feeling that he was watching a youthful inspirational movie.

　　”It’s great that this director is able to handle so many styles.”

　　Chen Ge estimated the progress of the movie, four-fifths of it had already passed, and apart from the beginning when he saw the ghosts and monsters, for the rest of that long period of time, not to mention ghosts, there wasn’t even a single slightly scary scare point.

　　”A horror movie without ghosts?”

　　Horror movies on the market are bound to have an “unknown” that brings suspense to the audience and creates a sense of terror.

　　But this movie seemed to be an exception, the entire movie had the female lead as the first perspective, and she didn’t see anything really scary.

　　Chen Ge always felt that the director was holding back a big trick, he was clear that this movie wasn’t that simple, and as the movie entered the end, he felt that that really scary thing was going to appear.

　　The relationship between Qiumi and the heroine was getting better and better, but there was another rather strange thing to note, during the time that Qiumi and the heroine had become friends, the sound of Qiumi’s laughter rang through the lenses on several occasions, but the heroine’s laughter had not been heard once.

　　There was still some time left before graduation exams, and with Akimi’s current grades, she would have no problem at all graduating successfully.

　　She had made her best friend and was about to fulfill her promise with her grandmother, now should be the happiest time for Akimi.

　　But while Akemi is happy, as a viewer, she is able to see the uneasiness hidden behind the happiness through the heroine’s perspective.

　　The shadow of Akemi’s grandmother is getting shorter and shorter, the worries of the heroine’s parents are getting heavier and heavier, and the camera switches become more frequent and rapid, as if the heroine is blinking her own eyes frequently.

　　Beneath the calmness of life lies a huge whirlpool, and those who come close are dragged towards the deep sea.

　　After the graduation exams, the class party, Akimi and the heroine went home late.

　　The night was extraordinarily quiet, Akemi hummed a pop song, her biggest wish in the past few months had been accomplished, and she was in a very good mood at this time.

　　”Tablemate, why haven’t you been talking? We can finally relax and no longer have to look at Old Cao’s face every day.” Akemi wrapped her arm around the heroine’s shoulders, her body sticking very close.

　　The camera surveyed Akemi from a very close position, the girl had long ago dyed her hair back to black and she looked beautiful.

　　The heroine looked away for a moment and then averted her eyes, she kept her head down as the camera filmed the dark as if never ending highway.

　　”You look a little upset?” Akimi’s face squeezed into the camera again.

　　The heroine stared at Akimi silently, not saying a word as she walked forward alone.

　　”Is it because of your family? I don’t think I’ve ever heard you mention them.” Akimi caught up, “Actually, my family kinda pisses me off, the ones who gave birth to me were arrested, and the one who raised me was my grandmother, so I take her last name.”

　　The heroine didn’t stop and Akimi followed until an intersection.

　　Akimi’s house was on the left and the heroine’s house was on the right, where they always parted ways.

　　”Shizuku? What the hell is wrong with you today?”

　　The heroine didn’t linger, walking across the street before she silently rushed at Akimi, “That’s not actually my name.”

　　”Not your name?” Akimi was about to ask a follow-up question, but the heroine had already started walking forward.

　　The special circumstances of her life as a child had shaped Akimi’s personality differently from the rest of her peers, and instead of going home, she chased after her.

　　Following behind the heroine, calling out her name.

　　There was less and less light on both sides, and eventually the two girls stopped in front of a dilapidated apartment building.

　　The apartment building was in an inconspicuous corner of the city, dark and dark, with no one seemingly living inside.

　　”Wen Yu? Your family …… is here?”

　　Still no answer, the heroine ran up the stairs and pulled out her keys, with Akimi following right behind.

　　There was no lighting installed in the hallway, and Akimi stumbled and tripped several times.

　　The door to the room opened and the heroine stepped inside.

　　The lights in the living room were not turned on, the curtains were drawn, and it was completely wrapped in darkness.

　　But just like that, the camera showed the kitchen door being opened and the heroine’s mother stepping out of it.

　　”Wen Yu? Why are you back so late today?”

　　Familiar voice, familiar scene, that silhouette that stood in the middle of the darkness and made people feel familiar was none other than the heroine’s mother.

　　A scene that seemed normal during the day, when it reappeared in the darkness at night, it unexpectedly brought an indescribable feeling of terror.

　　”I won’t come back here in the future.” The heroine’s voice appeared to change, she didn’t hide in the bedroom this time, but stopped in the living room.

　　”Wen Yu! Who are you talking to!” Akimi stood in the doorway, looking at the darkened living room, her face pale, the scene in her eyes seemed completely different from what the heroine had seen, “This place is so shabby, the furniture is rotting, and the floor is full of cracks, Shizuku, what are you doing here? Hurry up and go home!”

　　”Go home?” The heroine gently grabbed Akemi’s hand before violently yanking it inside, “But …… we’re already home!”

　　The light on the shield grew dimmer and dimmer until it became pitch black, the director didn’t film what was happening in the room, probably because he himself didn’t know.

　　A scream rang out in the darkness, eyes snapped open, the heroine was still lying on her bed in her bedroom.

　　The camera moves to the window, the sky is overcast, making it feel very depressing.

　　This scene and the beginning of the movie were reconnected again, the same sky, as if everything that had just happened was just a nightmare.

　　The heroine glances at the clock on the table, takes out her cell phone and returns a message, then drags her tired body into the bathroom.

　　She kept her head down, so the camera only shot the floor.

　　After brushing her teeth, washing her face, and getting it all done, the sound of her cell phone vibrating suddenly rang, the camera moved, and the heroine took out her cell phone from her clothes pocket and pressed the answer button.

　　”Wen Yu, how about we go to the movies together tonight? To celebrate you finally getting rid of that female gangster.”

　　”Akimi isn’t a gangster and she hasn’t bullied me.”

　　”You’re just too nice that’s why Old Cao let you sit with her, do you know that her parents are in jail for crimes, and now that she’s missing, who knows what she’s going to do? Anyway you must not get involved with her again.”

　　”Okay, I know.” The heroine’s grip on the phone grew stronger, “By the way, tablemate, after the movie tonight, can you come over to my house? I want to treat you to something fun.”

　　”Sure, no problem!”

　　”En, it’s a deal.” Hanging up the phone, the heroine slowly raised her head.

　　The camera shot towards the mirror, and this was the first time in the entire movie that the audience saw what the female lead looked like.

　　A thin body, scruffy clothes, long black hair, and a face with countless women put together.

　　The women looked different, but they all had the exact same left eye.

　　That eye gave the impression of being like a long nail that had been nailed onto countless faces.
