Chapter 0717 – One of the Employee Benefits
The camera was fixed on the mirror in front of the female lead, as if the female lead was also scrutinizing her face.
The end credits played, and the camera symbolizing the female lead’s perspective stayed stopped in front of the mirror.
The woman in the mirror slowly reaches out her own hand, she touches the face in the mirror, and then her body moves closer to the mirror.
The screen image was completely occupied by the woman in the mirror, and the viewer could see more and more clearly, as the heroine’s hair spread out to the sides, the woman in the mirror revealed her left eye.
As her left eye slowly widened, the camera suddenly pulled back and away!
At this point, the perspective no longer seemed to be that of the female lead, and the camera continued to move backwards, capturing the female lead’s back and the woman in the mirror.
As the perspective continued to move away, the heroine standing in front of the mirror turned her body and looked at the camera.
Her face was as pale as paper, completely different from the mirror, and it was at this moment that the most terrifying scene appeared.
The heroine turned backward, but the woman in the mirror maintained her original position, and she and the heroine looked at the camera together, revealing an incomparably bizarre expression.
The music came to an abrupt end, the screen was pitch black, probably because this dead man’s screening room hadn’t been used for too long, after the movie finished, the lights inside the screening room didn’t turn on, and the surroundings remained pitch black.
The darkness made people feel uneasy, Chen Ge sat on the chair and didn’t move around, his eyes still staring at the screen.
He probably understood the movie, the movie used the technique of flashbacks, the end echoed, and the middle was reminiscence.
The “left eye” grew on the body of a girl called Wen Yu, but the girl who controls Wen Yu’s body is no longer Wen Yu herself.
The director has only chosen one moment in the movie, at the beginning of the movie, the female ghost frantically calls out to the main girl as Akemi, which means that at that time, the spirit in the main girl’s body has already become Akemi.
The parents and the doctor seen later are both ghosts, or they both exist in a world that can only be seen with the left eye.
This also explains why Shizuku has always been so indifferent to her parents, who are in fact not her relatives at all, but just the ghosts of Shizuku’s family.
The middle part of the movie is sort of Akimi’s memories of how she went from Akimi to Shizuku.
When the memories are over, the movie finally returns to reality, and Akemi makes a date with her friends to watch a movie together in the evening, after which she invites her “friends” to her “home”, where a new cycle of reincarnation is about to begin.
The nightmare is not broken, and the next girl who takes over Akimi’s control of Wenyu’s left eye is supposed to be Akimi’s friend.
The scariest and most terrifying ghost in the whole movie is the main female character, and this movie is the only horror movie that Chen Ge has ever seen that is made from a ghost’s point of view.
In addition, there was another part of this movie that Chen Ge found extremely scary, when the movie was coming to an end, there was a change in the shooting perspective.
From the first point of view to the third point of view, at that time there was no one else present in that room, could this last shot have been shot from the audience’s point of view?
Both the female lead and the ghost in the mirror ended up looking at the audience off-screen, and Chen Ge remembered clearly that their left eyes were open.
”It feels like they’re going to come out of the screen the next moment.” Even Chen Ge had a furtive feeling in his heart after watching this movie.
It couldn’t be said that it was too scary, it was just that the more I thought about it, the more} human it became.
Opening his backpack, Chen Ge released the white cat and stroked its head, which calmed him down.
”The horror of the movie is created by the director, it’s different from the strange stories in reality, I must communicate with that director when I have the chance.”
The screen had gone black for almost three minutes, but the black cell phone didn’t send a message of mission completion, and Chen Ge didn’t know what the problem was.
”Could it be because this movie is too short and the black phone doesn’t agree?” He stood up and stared at the pitch-black screen, and another possibility came to mind, “Could it be that the movie hasn’t finished yet?”
The movie was only twenty minutes long, but if the ghost in the movie ran out, then this horror movie was not considered finished.
A faint musty odor wafted through the screening hall, and looking around, each seat seemed like a low grave bag, and the closer one looked, the more frightening it would be.
”The girl with the ‘left eye’ is probably hiding somewhere in the screening hall right now.” Chen Ge was here to complete the Black Phone mission, and if the movie didn’t end, then his mission would never be completed, “Do we really have to wait here until dawn?”
Chen Ge was a very calm person, he was clear about his strengths and understood his shortcomings.
Zhang Ya was sleeping and didn’t know when she would be able to awaken, Xu Yin stayed in the haunted house and was letting the red high heeled shoes catch up on cleaning up the curse, and at this time, the strongest employee on Chen Ge was Bai Qiulin.
Old Bai swallowed Xiong Qing’s heart with Xu Yin’s help and became a half-body red coat, but he belonged to the kind of severe ghosts that were forcibly elevated to half-body red coats, and when he really fought, he was definitely no match for those half-body red coats whose grievances were haunting them.
”The left eye looks very powerful, if she suddenly emerges from somewhere, the white cat and I won’t be able to stand up to her.”
Chen Ge had always been cautious, and he rarely went for those risky things if not necessary.
”Bro, there’s no sound for such a long time, the movie should be over, right? Can I go now?” The blind man raised his head and said to Chen Ge.
”You’ve called me brother, then I definitely can’t screw you over, to tell you the truth, the female ghost from that movie just now ran out.”
”The ghost from the movie ran out?!” The blind man reacted a bit vehemently.
”Don’t be anxious, I have one more piece of good news and one more piece of bad news to tell you right now.” Chen Ge reached into his backpack and flipped through the comic book.
”What time is it already? You’re still in the mood for jokes?” The blind man shrunk back in his chair and you could tell that he was really a bit scared, “You tell the bad news first.”
”The bad news is that that female ghost is dangerous and seems to be looking for a double, and we just happened to be unlucky enough to run into her.” Chen Ge calmly analyzed.
”I was forced to be unlucky, okay? Brothers, don’t stay here, let’s hurry up and leave, okay?” If he wasn’t unable to fight, the blind man probably would have copied his guide staff and fought with Chen Ge.
”It’s probably too late to leave now, that eye has seen us both, she will definitely haunt us.”
”Okay.” The blind man sat down powerlessly on the chair, “So what’s your so-called good news?”
The sound of flipping books rang in his ears, and Chen Ge softly called out one name after another, “The good news is that I’ve called a lot of my friends, and we have an absolute advantage in terms of numbers.”
A faint stench of corpses wafted out of the screening room, even completely covering the musty smell from before.
”Do you smell anything? Something is coming!” The blind man shouted in alarm.
”Stay in your seat and don’t move around, be careful of bumping into others.” Chen Ge had already flipped the comic book to the end.
”Your friends are here? When did they come over? Are they already in the house now? How come I didn’t hear the door slam?”
The blind man’s question went unanswered.
If he opened his eyes at this moment, he was afraid that he would be directly stunned and faint.
The originally dark and cold private screening room was crowded with human figures at this moment.
The boy called Stinky was pushed to the corner by the standing hanging dolls, aggrievedly holding his stomach.
The students in the last classroom of Mureyang Middle School were running back and forth with smiles and laughter, and Old Zhou with a very serious expression “tricked” Duan Yue into the last row, where the two of them sat alone together.
Elder Wei and several doctors stood behind the blind man, discussing the possibility of surgical recovery of sight in a low voice, and from time to time a few very specialized terms would come out of their mouths.
Water ghost sister sat in the first row, she is the victim of all sorts of things, this is the first time in the life of a “person” into the movie theater, so everything is very curious, hate to drill into the screen to see.
Yan Dainian is the last one out of the comic book, he was reluctant to sit in the corner, the penny holding a small next to him, Chen Yalin seems to want to ask him to teach him some knowledge of comics.
”Today’s birthday, I’m treating everyone to a movie, it’s considered one of our employee benefits. This movie theater is rather small, I still hope that you won’t mind, when I have money later, I will charter an IMAX giant screen theater for everyone to watch.” Chen Ge got up and entered the screening room, with Bai Qiulin and Elder Wei following him without moving an inch.
The blind man sat alone in his seat, he knew that there was a lot more around him, but there was always an indescribably strange feeling in his heart.
Opening his mouth, he reached out and touched towards Chen Ge’s position, and after realizing that no one was there, he honestly closed his mouth.
He didn’t dare to move, and he didn’t dare to ask.
”Do you guys have any movies you want to watch?” Chen Ge opened the playlist.
He was here to complete his mission, but it was different for the other employees who had been in the haunted house for a long time, especially those students from Mureyang Middle School, who could only leave their hosts for a very short period of time, so they grabbed the time to spread out and play.
It was common for ordinary people to watch a movie, but for these kids, if they hadn’t met Chen Ge, they would never have had such an opportunity.
There were only a few horror movies on the list, but the staff erupted into a heated discussion and finally voted for the movie they wanted to see.
The name of the movie was The Name, it seemed to be a movie related to a person’s name, Chen Ge looked at the cover, the director was still Chang Lone, and the female lead’s face was seven or eight percent similar to Wen Yu’s.
”Okay, all sit back, don’t run around after the movie starts playing, in addition pay attention to the surrounding, be careful of what extra people will appear later, this theater has been haunted.”
Looking at the ghosts and monsters in a movie theater, Chen Ge didn’t know if it was appropriate for him to say so.
”A bunch of ghosts and monsters sitting in a movie theater watching a horror movie, I wonder if they will see the feeling of a living documentary?”
The employees listened to Chen Ge very well, one by one, they returned to their seats, and they even thoughtfully left the two seats in the center empty.
”Why two empty seats?”
Chen Ge pressed the play button, and background music rang out from all around the theater hall, surrounding his ears, instantly creating an immersive feeling.
Although this movie hall was built a bit long ago, the equipment was all top of the line, after all, it was the resort’s visitors that were being served.
As soon as the music paired with the picture appeared, some of the employees who hadn’t seen much of the market, and those who had died earlier, got excited.
The screening room was filled with ghostly cries, and the sounds they made were much more terrifying than the sound effects of the movie itself.
”What if we scare them later? They used to be the ones to scare others.” Chen Ge didn’t care about that much, he only wanted to hurry up and finish the tasks on his black phone now.
Sitting on the seat that the employees had specially vacated for him, Chen Ge had Bai Qiulin sit next to him and the blind man sit on the other side of him.
The blind man came in because of him, so he definitely went back to ensure the blind man’s safety.
”Brother …… are you back?” The blind man sat in the middle of the theater hall with Chen Ge’s help, his legs were weak and he had the feeling of walking on cotton when he walked on the floor.
”En, it’s fine, you’re safe now, don’t worry.” Chen Ge hugged the white cat, “You can watch the movie in peace, when this movie is over, I will definitely personally send you out.”
”Are you sure I’m safe? My heart is beating fast, and I suddenly feel so cold and chilly, just like being stuffed into a refrigerator.” The blind man clutched his guide cane, his eyelids constantly fluttering as if he was about to lose control of them and might open them at any moment.
”Illusion.”
Chen Ge said two words very simply, scratched the white cat’s chin with his hand, and leaned against the back of the chair, comfortably watching the movie.
”It can’t be ah! It really isn’t an illusion ah! Are you sure all your friends are here? Why do I feel like there’s even more} people than just now?” The blind man exhaled a breath of cool air, “Brother, are you even listening to me? Don’t you feel any hard feelings at all?”
”Not only do I not feel bad, I even want to order a takeout with popcorn and coke.” Chen Ge did think like this just now, and the employees came out to play together that they should have fun, but considering the takeaway boy’s mental capacity, he still dismissed the idea: “It’s all psychological, you’ll be fine if you relax.”
The movie officially started, but the atmosphere was very different from just now.
The lighting and sound effects hadn’t changed much, and the only thing that had changed was just the audience.
Chen Ge watched with great devotion, and he vaguely touched a line by connecting the information he had searched for on the internet related to the Left Eye crew with the movie he saw tonight.
The movie Left Eye had been incinerated, but the private screening room had preserved other works by director Chang Ku, all of which were centered around Left Eye.
”Why would this director keep filming Left Eye?”
Chen Ge’s mind flashed back to a certain episode in Table Together, where Wen Yu’s father had called out Wen Yu’s full name, and that girl was called Chang Wen Yu, the same last name as Chang Ku.
”Could the girl with the left eye be Chang Lone’s sister or elder sister?” In the movie “At the Same Table”, Wen Yu is in a home where her parents and the occasional doctor can be seen, but there is no presence of Chang Lone as a person.
If Chang Lone was really Chang Wenyu’s family, then this might also indirectly indicate that Chang Lone was not dead at the time of the electric shooting, but just didn’t show up for various reasons.
Chen Ge again suddenly remembered that shot at the end of the Table: “The perspective shift, Qiumi and the female ghost in the mirror will end up looking at not the audience, but Chang Lone?”
