Baozhu Image is a large-scale cinema that ranks among the best in the entire Hokkaido. It is located in Fenggang County and is also the only cinema in Huiren District. There are usually movies shown here every day, especially when new movies are released, people line up to buy tickets. There is a long queue of visitors.
It's a coincidence that today coincides with the screening of a new movie. It is said that it is a blockbuster created by a famous director. In the commercial street, the entrance to the theater is crowded with people. Many men and women who love watching movies queue up to buy tickets here. The queue is long. There was a huge queue, and the ticket booth was overcrowded. Those who bought the tickets were happy to enter, and the queues were waiting anxiously. Everyone knew that the movie would be released in twenty minutes, and movie tickets were only sold according to seats. The number was limited. Once sold out, Then any hope of trying to see the movie premiere will undoubtedly be completely dashed.
Let’s not talk about the upcoming movie or the people waiting to buy tickets outside the cinema. In this commercial street, which was no different from before, a taxi drove straight towards it, turned into the street and stopped at the door of the cinema. Through the car, He opened the window, glanced at the crowd around him, and then looked up at the timer above that indicated that the movie was about to be shown. Soon, a bespectacled man wearing a white shirt and trousers who looked like an office worker no matter how he looked got out of the car. , the man got out of the car, and the driver, who was afraid of causing traffic jams, drove away in a hurry.
Ignoring the driver in the car and not paying attention to others around him, after getting out of the car, the man with glasses walked straight ahead, towards the crowded cinema.
Entering the crowd and squeezing through the men and women around him, Zhao Ping did not go to the cinema gate. Instead, after passing through the crowd, he turned around and walked into a street alley. There was an iron gate in the alley, which was also the back door of the cinema. It is provided for the convenience of cinema staff to travel. Under normal circumstances, no outsiders will come here. Due to the remote location, it is also in sharp contrast to the bustling cinema gate.
Boom, boom, boom!
The alley was very quiet, and there was no one around. When he walked to the door, Zhao Ping reached out and knocked on the small iron door without saying anything. Maybe it was because the theater was too busy today, so he knocked a dozen times before the sound came from inside. In response, there was first the sound of a series of footsteps, and together with it, there was also a woman's muttering complaints:
"Stop knocking. Come on, come on. I'm so busy. Who is it? Who is outside?"
Da da da……
Of course there are security personnel in the cinema, but today they are all focused on maintaining order at the gate. What's more, this is just a cinema and not a bank, so the back door of the cinema is unattended and only locked. In addition, today is particularly busy, Zhao After Ping knocked for a long time, the door was opened from the inside. Then, a female staff member wearing a theater uniform appeared at the door.
Obviously, the woman should have been busy elsewhere before and came here when she heard someone knocking on the door. She originally thought that the person knocking on the door was just her colleague, but as soon as she opened the door, a strange man she had never seen before appeared in front of her. In front of him, the woman was slightly stunned, and was about to ask. Unexpectedly, before she could speak, the person outside the door walked in silently, and then closed the door smoothly under the woman's suspicious gaze.
Then, the strange man turned his head and began to look around this small room with only two people present.
"May I ask you are?"
The strange man's unobtrusive behavior made the woman hesitate. She subconsciously thought that this man was a certain leader of the cinema, but she still asked after being unsure.
As for Zhao Ping, he confirmed that he had entered the theater and confirmed that he and the female employee were the only ones in the room. It was not until he was sure that there was no third person present that he turned his eyes to the woman again, and then asked: "Excuse me, where is the screening room?" ?”
"Oh, turn left when you go out of the screening room, and you'll reach it via the first flight of stairs."
Sure enough, out of professional habit, when the other party asked such a simple question, the woman subconsciously opened her mouth to answer the other party. After saying this, Xu finally reacted. The female staff member immediately changed the topic and asked: "Huh? Sir, you haven't answered just now. My question, who are you?”
Too bad the female clerk will never get the answer because...
Boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden elbow hit the woman's neck hard!
Plop.
After receiving such a heavy blow, the female employee's eyes suddenly went black and she fell to the ground neatly. At the same time, Zhao Ping, who had succeeded in the surprise attack, did not care about the woman's life or death. He only leaned over slightly and waited to confirm that there was no possibility of the other party waking up. , he straightened up and walked straight to the door in front, pushed it open, and saw that the scene in front of him was almost the same as expected. In front of him was a corridor leading to everywhere, and further away, he could hear bursts of noise. This was behind the theater. The location is right in the middle of the theater front hall and the viewing hall. In this case, according to what the female employee just said...
He looked towards the corridor on the left, and sure enough, there was a staircase in front of him, and directly above the staircase was a door with three Japanese fonts labeled "Screening Room"!
Da da da da…
Without any hesitation or hesitation, Zhao Ping found the location of the screening room and hurriedly walked through the corridor and ran to the stairs. Yes, time was in a hurry. The film screening was about to begin, and the viewing hall was already full of audiences waiting for the film to be screened. In this case...
Walking through the stairs to the corridor on the second floor, he saw no one around. When he arrived at the door of the screening room, Zhao Ping repeated his same trick again, and this time it was easier than knocking on the back door. Since this was already inside a theater, he knocked on about Three or four times, the door was pushed open from the inside. Then, a young man also wearing a theater uniform appeared in front of him. Through the door gap, in addition to the young man in front of him, there was another middle-aged man sitting inside.
(There were two people in the screening room...okay.)
"Sir, you are... oops!"
He simply ignored the young man's shocked expression, ignored the other party's verbal inquiry, and didn't even wait for the other party to finish speaking, Zhao Ping moved! Taking advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness, he suddenly raised his right leg and hit the young man hard. Due to the excessive force, he was hit hard. Not only was the young man kicked back to the room on the spot, but he was also clutched when he fell to the ground. My stomach howls miserably!
As you can imagine, seeing a colleague being beaten for no reason, and seeing a stranger breaking into the room, the middle-aged man who was sitting in front of the projection desk was startled and jumped up from his seat. Who would have thought... when he stood up? , before he could say anything, let alone before he could react, he walked into the screening room, Zhao Ping put his hand into his arms, and the next moment, a jet-black Type 64 pistol was pointed directly at the middle-aged man!
"Don't move. I will send anyone to hell who dares to act rashly. Of course, you can also choose to ignore me, but bullets don't have eyes!"
The cold words made the middle-aged man stunned for an instant, and made the young man who had just struggled to get up stiffen on the spot, facing the black hole of the gun. At this moment, the two staff members responsible for showing the film were dumbfounded, completely dumbfounded, the theater A murderer with a gun actually broke in? what happened? Why? Putting aside whether the gun in the other person's hand is real or fake, what is this person doing here? Robbery? Don't be kidding, this is a movie theater, not a supermarket or bank. What is a gunman doing here?
Back to the topic, when they saw that the other party had a gun, the two projectionists, who doubted the authenticity of the gun but valued their own lives more, were frightened to death on the spot. In fear, the young projectionist hurriedly squatted on the ground with his head in his hands. As for the other projectionist, The middle-aged projectionist very smartly took out his wallet, and then while trembling, he begged Zhao Ping: "First, sir, don't... don't shoot, please don't shoot! We, our money is all here here……"
Obviously, there is no doubt about the deterrence of guns. Seeing the other party pulling out a gun, the two projectionists, who were afraid that the other party had a real gun, gave up resistance decisively. At this moment, they looked at the trembling two people and then looked at the video player in front of them. , ignoring the other person's wallet held high above his head, Zhao Ping pointed a gun at the two people with his right hand and reached into his pocket with his left hand. Then, a black video tape was taken out of his pocket.
Bang!
"Put this tape into the player and play it, quick!"
With the gun as a deterrent, Zhao Ping did not talk nonsense to the two men at all. When the video tape was thrown at the middle-aged man's feet, the verbal threats were also heard by the two men.
"Huh? This..."
"Don't ask questions, my patience is very limited."
"Yes, yes! Please don't be angry, we will do as we do, do everything as we do!"
Although he knew that the movie was about to be screened, and even though he knew that the theater hall below was already full of spectators, the middle-aged man who did not want to be shot under the threat of death still chose to compromise, not daring to ask the other party what his purpose was, let alone Without a trace of hesitation, with all kinds of confusions in mind, he picked up the video tape. The middle-aged man had no ink marks, and began to obediently walk to the projector to operate it under the gaze of Zhao Ping's cold eyes, until he finished everything, until Zhao Ping signaled. Play, next, as the middle-aged man presses the play button, the huge projection screen directly below the screening room and at the front of the viewing hall...
A snowflake suddenly appeared, and...
A series of sudden harsh noises!
Bah, bah bah... bah... bah...
The screen moved to the movie theater. The spacious hall is currently packed with seats. The ticket sales are now over. Those who did not buy tickets are upset to leave. Those who bought tickets are now gathered in the movie hall. Because the Baozhu Cinema is originally A large cinema has at least 2,000 seats in the viewing hall. If this is the case, the number of viewers currently in the viewing hall is undoubtedly as high as 2,000.
I have to say that the visual blockbuster produced by a well-known director is very attractive, otherwise it would not be possible to fill the theater with seats. As the lights in the hall went out and the big screen in front lit up, the noisy hall quickly became quiet, and the people on the seats Knowing that the film was about to be released, countless men and women regained their composure and looked at the screen. The purpose of their coming here was to watch the new film and watch this new visual feast. Movie lovers began to imagine what they would see. Wonderful plot, the young girl snuggles in her boyfriend's arms, the fat man starts to grab the popcorn in his hand and stuff it into his mouth, and the child's eyes widen with curiosity...
Everything is so calm and natural, the atmosphere in the hall is no different from before. Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, the screen lights up, but...
However, the scene that appeared on the screen immediately stunned the 2,000-strong audience in the theater. In other words... the impact of what appeared on the screen was too different from what was expected:
Time passed second by second, and in the silence, the noise disappeared, and the snowflakes on the screen disappeared until the image returned to normal. The last picture that came into view was not the expected blockbuster. No, let alone a blockbuster, there was not even the movie promotion inherent in the beginning of the film. , there is no trademark of the film and television company, no promotion by the producer, no name of the director, and... just a strange and almost fixed picture.
A dark and deserted grove appeared on the big screen, and in the center of the forest was a well, an abandoned well...other than that, there was nothing else.
Seeing this scene, for a while, there was some discussion in the originally silent viewing hall. It was obvious that the audience was puzzled. They were confused and surprised. They had the impression that this movie was obviously a science fiction film? Movie posters are also full of grand scenes, but, how...why is this kind of scene displayed in the field of vision now? Looking at the screen and observing the images inside, not only is there no trace of science fiction blockbusters, it even gives people a sense of depression, an inexplicable and eerie feeling.
Is it a horror movie? Or is this a creative scene at the beginning of a movie?
No one knows what happened, and no one understands what happened. Although a few people suspected that the wrong video was shown, they were just suspicions. After all, the film had just begun and no one could easily draw a conclusion.
So, just like that, the audience of 2,000 in the hall continued to stare at the big screen with suspicion, waiting for the plot to develop. .
At the same time, in the screening room on the second floor...
At some point, the two projectionists were lying on the ground. They were motionless. No one knew whether they were alive or dead. However, the faint blood oozing out from under them indicated that this would happen. The two of them may be in danger.
As for Zhao Ping, his goal has been achieved!
In front of the operating table, he put the bloody dagger back into his waist, looked through the window at the huge crowd in the viewing hall below, and stared at the dark picture on the screen. Zhao Ping, who had successfully played the Sadako video tape to the audience, smiled. He raised the corners of his mouth and showed a cruel smile unscrupulously!
frenzied! ! !
Obviously knowing that the curse of Sadako was spread by that video, and knowing that anyone who saw that video would be hunted down, but Zhao Ping, a man with glasses who has a gentle appearance and can give others a good impression no matter how he looks at him, This death video was deliberately played to the audience through artificial means, and he did not even feel the slightest guilt when playing it. He had no psychological pressure from the beginning to the end. Not only was there no pressure, but he also showed a proud smile... He was so heartbroken, in addition to being able to Is there any other word to describe it as crazy?
After successfully doing all this, the man with glasses turned around and left, pushed the door open and went downstairs, walked out of the screening room and returned to the utility room on the first floor. Before leaving, he stabbed the unconscious female staff member in the neck, confirming that the woman had passed away. You can't die anymore. After confirming that all the evidence and witnesses have been wiped out by yourself, there is no need to worry about being wanted by the police. The man with glasses pushed out the door and left the cinema quietly, just like he came here silently in the first place. , and now he leaves quietly after finishing one thing.
Next, the bespectacled man who returned to the commercial street waved down a taxi, got into the car and drove away. All this was so ordinary, but...
Not long after the taxi left the block...
"ah!"
"Ooohhhhhh!"
Da da da da da!
First, a piercing scream like a mountain roar and a tsunami suddenly came from the theater. Then, under the astonished gazes of passers-by on the roadside, a large wave of people with frightened expressions ran out of the theater door crying and howling! These people were panic-stricken. They were extremely frightened. They were scrambling as if something was chasing them behind them. They rushed out of the theater crying for their fathers and mothers, rolling and crawling to escape. In the crowd, some people were pushed down and trampled. Some people rolled and struggled, while others simply broke the windows and jumped out. This scene was extremely rare and extremely shocking. No one knew what had just happened in the theater, but the scene of thousands of people fleeing in terror in front of them can still shock anyone. The people who saw it were greatly shocked.
The entire commercial street fell into chaos.
Weeping and running, in just a few moments, the 2,000 spectators who escaped from the theater through various means quickly escaped. As for the Baozhu Cinema, except for the corpses of several old people who were scared to death, there was no one left. one person.
but……
The matter is not over yet. Although in the eyes of others and myself, these fleeing spectators are normal except for being frightened. However, if you carefully observe the spectators from a third perspective at this time, you will see a picture. A horrifying picture that cannot be seen by the naked eye:
On the street, these spectators are fleeing in all directions, regardless of whether they are men or women, young or old, there is a human hand on their necks without exception! ! !
A pale and blood-stained female hand, without a body or anything else, just one hand, countless female hands are clinging to the necks of thousands of people, but in the eyes of others, no human hands can be seen , the chaos intensified, until the entire commercial street was dispersed by the crowd, until the street was empty after the chaos, until there was nothing else, and with a large eerie cool breeze blowing by, the entire street changed in a moment .
Pairs of eyes began to appear, appearing on the buildings on both sides of the street, on the walls, on the ground, telephone poles, glass, and anywhere they could appear. In just a short while, the entire street was occupied by countless eyes! There are too many to count! ! !
Then……
A string of female laughter came from the theater, a laughter that was colder and more sinister than the underworld:
"Hey Hey Hey………"
The laughter echoed through the streets, resounded through the sky, and never dissipated for a long time.
……………
