Chapter 78 - Thoughts (1/2)

This was overhead by Ming Ming as the director conversed with the family.

This was also why they soon sent Ming Ming back after adopting him away. They were frightened by Ming Ming’s personality and some of his behaviours.

Ming Ming went into the old director’s room to ask him about it when he saw the list with Yan Jing Cai and the others. He then set fire to the entire orphanage.

It was his lingering obsession that allowed the orphanage to return to its original appearance.

In his world, the orphanage was still intact. The old director and the others could exist here because their souls were still there, but this wasn’t the case for his younger sister. His younger sister couldn’t appear here.

Until he made Yan Jing Cai and the others come.

According to the information from the normal movie, after Yan Jing Cai and the others’ arrival, they made up exactly thirteen people. It just happened to match with the name of the movie.

More importantly, they had arrived in the evening when it was time for their last supper.

But with the inclusion of Su Min, there was one extra person and the numbers no longer added up.

Except for them, everyone else in the orphanage were ghosts. Only Ming Ming knew the truth, so he took on an existence like that of Jesus.

Li Wenxin said: “I think the name “Shocking Orphanage” is better than “The Last Supper”. I don’t get why they chose that name.”

“Shocking Orphanage” was more obvious. Just by seeing it, you could tell that it would be a horror movie set at an orphanage. “The Last Supper” on the other hand was vague and you couldn’t guess what was going to happen.

The rice noodles were soft and smooth. The two of them emptied their plates.

Li Wenxin paid the bill: “Let’s go.”

Su Min left with him. On the way back, they ran into a classmate who asked: “Su Min did you go watch movies recently?”

Su Min said: “I did.”

“Ah, then does that mean there will soon be a rereleased version?” The classmate rubbed her hand, “I can’t wait.”

Su Min: “……It’s quite normal.”

“That’s not the case.” The classmate waved her hand, “It’s a film acted out by a classmate. No matter how you look at it, it’s exciting.”

Su Min didn’t understand her way of thinking.

Because cinema’s will never disclose the viewer’s private information, everyone could only try and find out by themselves. Sometimes it might just be a case of someone having the same name.

Su Min was an exception. Movie lovers all knew about him.

There were quite a few holographic movie viewers for “The Last Supper” during the first three days of its release. After they were done, they would discuss how long they’ve managed to survive through it on social media.

Su Min saw a successful movie experience posted on the university campus forum.

But his ending was a little different. He had received the role of a side character who was fated to die in a car crash before he could even arrive at the orphanage, so he decided not to go to the orphanage in the first place and just wandered around outside.

Like this, he managed to escape his character’s death and he didn’t do anything until the movie reached its finale.

Most of the replies below the post were ridicules.

“Brother, you’re too much. Did you even see a ghost?”

“Then why did you go watch the movie in the first place? Did you meet a beautiful woman or become rich?”

“Should have just watched the movie normally.”

“Although I haven’t tried this, I still know that you wouldn’t pass the grading of the movie even if you managed to live until the end of the movie if you did it like this. Brother, you’re too pitiful. You didn’t even manage to watch the true plot of the movie. Wasted your money.”

“………..”

Su Min was also aware that avoidance was also another way of clearing the movie, but he wouldn’t choose to do it. You watch a movie in order to experience the story.

If you didn’t even go into the orphanage, the entire movie experience would be meaningless. It would be no different to watching a movie normally and all you got was just a change in profession.

………..

Three days later, the cinema’s notice came in a timely manner.

This time, Su Min didn’t go to self-study class and was sorting things in his dormitory room when his phone sounded.

Li Wenxin was startled by this and almost cut off his nails.

Su Min turned on the phone. On it was a message from the cinema: “【New Century Cinema] Audience Member Su Min hello. The scoring for your participation in “The Last Supper” three days ago has been released. It has reached the rerelease standard and the release schedule has been set. Please log in online and we will give you your new movie tickets….”

Li Wenxin leaned over, “Oh, it’s released. I’ll need to go and watch.”

Wang Di heard this as he left the bathroom. He asked: “What’s released? Another horror movie? Isn’t the release too frequent?”

Li Wenxin rolled his eyes: “That orphanage movie is rereleased.”

“Oh, then I also want to watch it.” Wang Di now understood the situation, “I have only watched that school one and none of the rest. This time I want to go and watch it.”

Su Min’s expression didn’t change, “Up to you.”

In any case, there were lots of scenes already released so everything that needed to be exposed was already exposed. He wasn’t afraid of revealing anything new in this movie.

Although they said they wanted to watch it, they didn’t go immediately and went a day later.

Because it was a weekday, there weren’t many people at the cinema. Since it’s located close to the university, most of them are students.

The more students there were, the more couples so romance movies were naturally most popular.

Su Min used his ID to redeem his movie ticket.

The staff kindly took the three of them to rest on the side, “There are still twenty minutes until the ticket checks. You can sit here for a while.”

After he left, Li Wenxin started to eat the snacks on the table.

Wang Di suddenly remembered something. He asked: “I remember there was a Jing Xian in the last movie. Do you also have one in this one?”

Su Min shook his head: “No. It’s a new one every time.”

He once again explained to them his character script.

“Sounds like you just die for no reason.” Wang Di grumbled: “It must not have been easy for you to survive.”

Li Wenxin looked up, “That ghost isn’t in this movie?”

That movie last time had left him with a deep impression. Afterall, he had done many incredible things and it was also through that movie that allowed him to find out about Su Min’s sexuality.

Although he didn’t admit to it explicitly, he knew.

Su Min: “……..No.”
