Chapter 172 encounter
There were not many people in the cinema, and Wu Geng was hesitant before the upcoming movies.
Campus love movies, action movies, detective mystery movies, science fiction movies. She doesn't often watch movies. It's hard to predict whether the content is interesting just by looking at posters and trailers. Taking care of Zhongyuan here, it may be good to choose campus love themes, but the fifth update is not suitable for reasoning.
I was very interested in the label of "serial killer" on the movie poster.
Zhongyuan waited behind him for a long time, Wu Geng was still unable to make a decision, and finally volunteered to go buy drinks and popcorn, leaving the choice to Zhongyuan.
Zhongyuan originally planned to watch a movie with a light-hearted theme, but hesitated before buying the tickets.
"Um...is there any movie with a lower attendance rate?"
When Wu Geng came back with two drinks and a bucket of popcorn under his arm, Zhongyuan had already bought the ticket.
"Horror film?"
Wu Geng looked at the movie title "The Conjuring" on the receipt, and never thought that Yi Zhongyuan would like to watch this type of movie.
"This is the only one with room available," Zhongyuan said with a blushing face.
In fact, Zhongyuan is not very interested in any of the movies currently being released. In this case, it is better to choose an environment where he can not be disturbed, and it can be regarded as a world of solitude for the two of them.
What's more, the option of horror movies may be the right one, which will not make people drowsy and can create an atmosphere that enhances emotional communication.
The two entered the screening hall and sat down in the seats near the front row. Seeing a few couples scattered throughout the venue, Zhongyuan became more and more sure that his choice was correct.
Zhongyuan puffed up his chest and was ready to comfort the frightened Lihua Daiyu, who was panicking in the "soft version of Wu Geng".
——
On the other side, noticing Zhongyuan's gesture pointing at the movie poster, Nishino decisively bought the same ticket.
"Na-chan, are you okay? Why don't we go in and wait for them to come out at the milk tea shop opposite." Takayama looked at Nishino's unhappy face and thought she was afraid of movies with this theme.
"...Zhongyuan-san definitely did it on purpose!" Nishino said angrily.
If Zhongyuan chose a horror-themed movie carelessly, Nishino wouldn't believe it. Although she has no experience in love, she still knows the theory of the suspension bridge effect.
In the darkness, the terrifying sound effects and images, the tense heartbeats of the moviegoers, the hands clasped together in fear, and then the sense of security that there are other people around, and maybe even encountering the other person's active embrace.
This routine has been written badly in romance novels.
Zhongyuan tried to conquer the fifth chapter with such a vulgar plot. Although Nishino felt that there was a 99.9% chance that he would not succeed, he was still worried about the 0.1% that slipped through the net.
At this point, she no longer had the energy to care whether she was scared or not, and dragged Gao Shan towards the screening room.
Being dragged forcefully by Nishino, Gao Shan was helpless. To be fair, she didn't want to watch a horror movie. The various ghost rumors circulating in her hometown had left a deep impression on her mind since she was a child. It is no exaggeration to say that from the beginning of practice
Kendo has an element of courage.
The two chose a seat in the middle and sat down. Two or three rows apart from the left front, they could just observe the movements of Zhong Yuan and Wu Geng who were sitting by the aisle. However, due to the blockage of the seats and the dim environment, it was difficult to see.
not very clear.
A girl sitting directly in front of Nishino had the back of her head shaking uneasily, always obstructing Nishino's observation. Fortunately, her companion quickly stopped her.
The movie will start showing soon.
——
Facts have proved that the gap between expectation and reality is not even a small one.
The background of the story of "The Conjuring" takes place in the United States in the 1970s. A couple and their five daughters moved to an old house in the countryside. After that, strange things happened one after another, which frightened the family.
The dog who was unwilling to enter the house died tragically outside the house the next day. There was a rotten smell in the room and there were many bruises on the body of the mistress.
At the beginning, Zhongyuan still had the intention to secretly observe the expressions of Wu Geng around him. As the plot progressed, his mind gradually entered the movie.
The perfect sound rendering and frequent strange things made Zhongyuan uncontrollably nervous. He looked at the fifth watch on the side and stared at the big screen with interest, without moving his eyes for even half a minute. Zhongyuan wanted to talk to her.
To relieve the fear in my heart, but I am worried about disturbing the fifth watch, so I am hesitating.
Noticing Zhongyuan's abnormal mood, Wu Geng comforted her:
"Riyaxiang, are you okay?"
"...Aren't you afraid, Shixiao-chan?"
She knew that Wu Geng was afraid of heights, and was also frightened by ghosts and monsters in the show, so she thought Wu Geng was not very good at such things.
"Fortunately, because these are all fake, no matter how scary they are, they won't jump out. And don't you think the people who are scared in the movie are interesting?" Wu Geng said with a smile, his expression relaxed.
Interesting? Where?
Zhongyuan pursed his lips and was about to speak.
In the movie, the hostess was about to go downstairs at night to check the source of the abnormal noise, and the picture frames hanging on the wall of the stairs fell to the ground. The sudden sound made Zhongyuan shrink down in fright, let out a whimper, and quickly closed his eyes.
Don't dare to look again with your ears closed.
Wu Geng patted Zhongyuan on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile:
"It's okay, it's okay. Look, it's just that the photo frame fell off. The ghost hasn't come out yet."
Seeing that Zhongyuan was still shrinking and trembling, he leaned towards her, hooked her arms around hers and intertwined their index fingers together.
"Would this be better?"
Zhongyuan nodded pitifully.
——
"...Na-chan, if you don't dare to look at us, please go out first."
Half of Nishino's body was pressed against Gao Shan's body, grabbing her clothes and refusing to let go no matter what she said. Gao Shan was also a little helpless.
If you can't see it, then don't show off, Gao Shan sighed inwardly.
"...It's okay...I, I'll slow down a little bit and I'll be fine soon..."
"No...you've been dragging me for ten minutes...and you see, it's daytime now, and the scary part has passed."
"...Really?" Nishino weakly raised his head from Gao Shan's arms, his eyes turning red.
"Really, really." Gao Shan nodded hurriedly in assurance, and then asked Nishino to sit back down.
Nishino straightened his clothes, tried his best to restrain himself from looking at the screen, and apologized to Gao Shan in a low voice to divert his attention.
Gao Shan was generous, waving his hand and saying it didn't matter. Before she could get scared, she was interrupted by Nishino's excessive behavior, which made her feel dumbfounded.
"But Na-chan, are you sure you're fine? We're only a third of the way through the movie."
"Well... I'll just have to endure it a little longer." Nishino said with a frown, staring at the hands held tightly by Gogeng and Hikaka. I really don't know whether she was enduring the intimate behavior of the two or the scary atmosphere of the movie.
At this point in the movie, the ghosts hidden in the old house have slowly begun to show their signs. Although Nishino talked about being patient, he tried not to pay attention to the screen. However, when the characters in the movie were repeatedly tortured, they still screamed.
Make a sound.
Gao Shan had no choice but to stretch out his arm and let Nishino hold it to help her ease her panic.
After the tense and exciting episode was over, Nishino breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed, feeling like he was riding a roller coaster again.
Um?
At this time, she suddenly felt the gaze of others, glanced around, and found a pair of big eyes on the back of the seat in front of her, staring straight at her. Nishino subconsciously held his breath, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
, grabbing Gao Shan’s arm hard.
"Na-chan?"
Gao Shan was in pain from being caught, and looked at Nishino beside him. He saw Nishino looking in horror at the small half of his head exposed above the backrest in front of him, with his mouth half open, too frightened to say anything.
Gao Shan always felt familiar, but he couldn't remember the other person's name for a while.
"...Nishino-san?"
The other party hesitantly called out, a voice that was clear and energetic.
"kii-chan?" It was another girl's voice.
"It's Nishino-san, Kouri-chan!"
The girl next to him noticed it and turned around to look back.
"Really," she said in surprise, "Takayama-san is here too!"
"...Second generation students?"
What a coincidence. Gao Shan thought as he looked at Nishino who was frozen beside him.
Chapter completed!
