Chapter 107 - Video (1/2)

Once back to the theatre, Su Min opened his eyes.

He took off his helmet and heard the male half of the couple sitting near him sleeping soundly. His snores were rather loud.

He didn’t appear to be afraid of getting beaten up by his girlfriend.

There was still the last part left in the movie and the lights would only turn on once it reached the end. Following that, the cleaners would come in.

Su Min watched the rest and then got up.

This time, the staff didn’t show up. He left his helmet in his seat and moved over to the aisle to leave.

A female reprimanding voice could be heard through the commotion: “I didn’t take you to the movies to sleep.”

The man quickly begged for mercy: “I was wrong, I was wrong…..But I couldn’t go back after dying.”

“Don’t ask me out to the movies anymore.” The woman added: “It’s no fun watching movies with you.”

He not only died before her, he even fell asleep.

There were no Easter eggs in this movie, only some behind the scene snippets.

Su Min wasn’t interested in these.

As soon as he reached the cinema hall, he saw Xiao He outside. He looked like he was getting ready to go in.

Seeing him, Xiao He hurriedly said: “Mr. Su.”

Su Min walked next to him, “Do you need something?”

Xiao He revealed a smile and said: “It’s nothing important. I just wanted to let you know that there will be a new movie released next month and I wanted to see if you will be interested watching it.”

Su Min: “It’s still too early to tell.”

He didn’t know what his schedule would be like next month. It would depend on how busy he is to determine whether or not he could come.

Xiao He said: “That’s true. Sorry about bothering you.”

All the staff here wanted to know about Su Min and establish some sort of connection with him. They had watched every rereleased movie he had starred in.

It was a first for them to have someone who could attract the attention of ghosts.

There were audiences who could clear through the movie until the end but there were usually tough men, completely different to someone soft and gentle like him.

And their attractiveness also couldn’t compare with Su Min’s.

To but it bluntly, more people are willing to watch something starring someone who is good-looking and smart. This was particularly the case once Su Min’s private details were exposed. His status as a study god gave the audiences an even more favourable impression.

Xiao He finally understood why the cinema kept making him follow Su Min around. An audience like him was hard to find.

More importantly, he definitely wasn’t anyone ordinary.

Although he wasn’t too clear about it, he could tell through his actions.

Su Min made a sound of acknowledgement and asked: “Did anyone else clear the movie this time?”

“Yes.” Xiao He said: “In this session there was another one. There will probably be more in the sessions after this.”

Su Min internally felt that the ratio seemed quite okay.

He was just curious how they managed to escape.

But he would have to wait until they are rereleased to be able to watch it. Maybe some won’t even be screened. The number of rereleases of a movie is usually limited to a maximum of three. Because the spaces in cinemas are limited, they couldn’t let it compete with the other movies.

Xiao He and Su Min exchanged a few more words before separating.

Su Min went out the door and stopped before the posters. He took a quick look at all the movies that were recently rereleased.

The posters were all beautiful but one of them was for a movie which received poor reviews online.

As he was thinking this, his phone vibrated.

Su Min opened it and saw that Li Wenxin had called him multiple times with half an hour interval between each call. Now, he was calling him again.

As soon as the call connected, he heard his voice: “Su Min, you’ve finally answered my call. Were you watching a movie?”

Su Min made a sound of affirmation as he walked out from the cinema, “Just came out.”

“I knew you weren’t picking up because of a movie.” Li Wenxin blabbed on. “I thought you would come out early, but I didn’t expect you to stay in there for so long. It goes without saying that you must have reached the movie finale.”

Su Min: “I guess.”

Li Wenxin asked: “Was the last part of the movie good?”

As someone who was killed shortly after entering, he was very curious.

Su Min said: “How fun could it be staying in prison? The ending is also the same. You should already be able to guess what the ending would be like.”

Li Wenxin said: “That’s true. Anyway, I hope your rerelease is screened sooner.”

Su Min: “We will need to wait three days until I’m notified.”

At this moment, someone just happened to pass by. Hearing his words, he immediately sneered.

Did you really think that it was easy to get a rerelease?

Su Min heard the noise and looked over at the man.

The man glanced at him and called someone with his phone: “…..I just met someone bragging at the cinema saying that their movie would be rereleased. Does he even think……….”

Su Min remained silent. He calmly walked past him.

Whenever he encountered something like this, he had a strange feeling. It was probably something the netizens online referred to as silently smiling as you wait for the moment to slap their face.

But he also thought that, in the situation where his movie really didn’t get rereleased, it would be too embarrassing.

Su Min this time wanted to know what happened in the original movie, so he directly moved to buy the next screening ticket.

He didn’t need to wait long. Within a few minutes, he was back inside the theatre.

There were much more people watching the movie normally compared to those willing to watch the holographic movie. There were also many couples and the theatre were filled with sounds of popcorn being chewed on.

This persisted until the lights in the theatre dimmed.

***

The movie at most would play for two hours.

When Su Min came out from the theatre, he sighed again.

In the movie, Fang Shu Juan and Yin Ze stayed in the same room rather late. They had also tried to investigate but they didn’t have many chances to do so.

Eventually, they were caught.

Chen Su said that at the end of the movie, “Everything was gone” but this didn’t necessarily mean that everyone one would die. It could also mean something different, that is, the two of them dying.
