"I only know a little bit, why are you asking this?" The man grabbed the guide stick and tried to keep some distance from Chen Ge, but he was too weak to break free.
"My friend disappeared while watching a movie in the theater. I want to do the same thing as him to see if I can find anything." Chen Ge said casually, standing quietly in the darkness, he scanned the entire theater.
The rows of seats are uneven in height, like the figures of people squatting or standing.
"Are you crazy? You come here at 2 a.m. to ask me to show you a movie?" Even if there were no horrible rumors, the man felt that no normal person would be like Chen Ge, running to an abandoned movie theater late at night to watch a movie.
"I am very sober and I know what I am doing." Chen Ge shone the light of his mobile phone on the various equipment beside him: "If it is inconvenient for you, you can tell me how to operate it and I will do it myself."
Chen Ge is a very studious person. He learns wherever he goes. It is precisely because of this that he has mastered so many "skills".
"You have to think carefully. What I told you before was not a story, but a true story." The man's eyelids trembled slightly. He was aware of his current situation. He put his guide stick aside and reached out to feel around on the table.
The man moved very slowly, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Chen Ge stood beside him and stared at him. The more he looked, the more he felt that this man was not normal.
His hands were so flexible that even though his eyes were closed, he knew the location of all the equipment clearly.
There are two possible reasons for this situation. One is that before he became blind, or after he became blind, he continued to repeatedly operate the equipment. Practice makes perfect, and this is how he was able to operate it smoothly with his eyes closed.
The second possibility is that he is not blind at all.
"The main switch is on the second floor. Can you help me turn it on?" The man connected all the lines and touched the power supply in the distribution box, but after trying several times, he failed to start it successfully.
"Second floor?" Chen Ge picked up the skull crusher, walked out of the screening room, and went up the stairs to the second floor. However, he did not go in. Instead, he stood at the stairs and looked at the exit of the screening room.
Just five seconds later, a man's face popped out of the screening room.
He pricked up his ears to listen for a while, and when he found nothing unusual, he immediately ran into the darkness in the distance.
Two footsteps were heard in the silent night, and before the man could walk far, his shoulders were held down.
"How could you leave me there alone?"
Chen Ge's voice reached the man's ears, and he was stunned as if he was struck by thunder.
"I can't find the main switch. Let's go together." Chen Ge helped the man back to the second floor and turned on the main switch.
With a bang, all the lights in the cinema flashed.
"I just want to watch a movie here and find my missing friend, that's all. If you keep interfering, then I can only think that my friend's disappearance is related to you."
The projector started up automatically after the power distribution box was turned on. The man then turned on the hard drive. After the loading was complete, he raised his head and said, "You can choose any movie you want to watch. But I will give you one last piece of advice. Don't watch horror movies. It can cause serious problems."
Watching a movie in a private screening room was only the first part of the Left Eye Trial mission. It was already two o'clock in the morning. If it wasn't finished early, Chen Ge might not be able to complete the rest of the mission tonight.
Thinking of this, Chen Ge scanned the playlist and decided to pick the shortest video.
"The black phone only requires me to watch a movie here, but it doesn't require a certain type of movie." Chen Ge would not make things more difficult for himself. He wanted to find a warm art film or cartoon, but when he clicked on the playlist, he found that none of the movies could be played. It said that the movie resources were incomplete and needed to be downloaded again.
After choosing for a long time, Chen Ge found that only horror movies could be played normally.
Thinking about what the man just said, Chen Ge was a little confused: "Is it someone playing tricks? Or is there something that destroyed the resources of other films?"
Flipping through the playlist, he found something even stranger.
Chen Ge runs a haunted house. In order to find inspiration, he often watches horror movies, but he has never heard of any of the horror movies in this player.
"These horror films are different from the ones on the market. The director and producer on the cover are all named by the same person." Chen Ge clicked on the cover and wrote down the director's name: "Chang Gu? Is this a stage name or a real name?"
"Have you made your choice?" The man's hands were shaking. There were no major changes around him, but he became more and more uneasy, as if if he stayed in this place for too long, he would be entangled by something.
"Okay, let's play the shortest one." Most horror movies are about an hour and a half long, but Chen Ge saw a movie in the playlist that was only twenty-five minutes long.
The name of this movie is - Deskmate.
With five minutes left before the mission was due, the movie officially began playing, the lights in the private cinema went out, and a slightly blurry picture appeared on the screen.
"I'm a blind man, so I won't accompany you. Here's my phone number. Call me after you're done and I'll pack these things up." The man read out a number to Chen Ge, who entered it into his phone and called directly.
A buzzing sound came from the man's pocket. He did not lie to Chen Ge.
Having seen countless tourists panic, Chen Ge could tell that the man was very scared at this moment.
After realizing this, he was even more reluctant to let the man leave. The other party must know some inside information but just refused to tell him.
"Don't leave in a hurry. Let's stay together so we can take care of each other." Chen Ge helped the man sit in the theater seat. Considering safety issues, Chen Ge chose a seat near the exit.
"I'll just forget it..."
"Keep your voice down, the movie is starting."
Watching a horror movie in a cinema and watching it at home are two completely different experiences. The feeling of being wrapped in darkness and being immersed in the scene is something you don't have at home.
I heard a heartbeat, followed by heavy breathing. A huge eye on the screen slowly opened, and I could vaguely see a woman's figure from the black pupil.
The camera slowly moves upwards to look at the desk. The alarm clock shows that it is 4:30 in the afternoon. The sky outside the window is overcast and depressing, and a rainstorm is about to come.
The entire movie seems to be shot from a first-person perspective, and the images captured by the camera are what the protagonist sees.
"Akimi!"
Someone downstairs kept shouting a name, the camera moved, and the protagonist climbed up from the bed and came to the window.
She opened the window and seemed to stick her head out, and the camera captured the scene downstairs.
A girl in a red coat was waving at her.
