Chapter 329 Little Surprise
As the plane took off in the movie and flew into the distant blue sky, the melody of the ending song "Thinking of You" sung by Xiao Keer sounded at the same time. At this point, the movie with a total length of one hour and fifty-three minutes officially ended. During this period, no one left or went to the bathroom.
All the lights in the theater came on again.
Some of the audience stood up, stretched, and prepared to leave, some sat in their chairs to recall the plot and look at the credits, and some prepared to listen to the ending song before leaving, just in case there were any Easter eggs...
Liu Lan was about to get up when Yu Zhan held her hand and said,
"Wait a minute, there are too many people."
She thought about it and realized that these audiences had just seen the role she played in the movie. If they recognized her, it might be a bit troublesome. After all, she and Yu Zhan were celebrating Valentine's Day.
So, they both sat in their chairs without moving.
After the ending song played, the entire screen went black. There were only a few people left in the audience, and they were walking towards the exit one after another. Liu Lan thought they should be able to leave, but Yu Zhan still held her hand.
She looked confused, and Yu Zhan just smiled and said, "Wait a moment."
...
...
The last people to leave the screening room were two young girls. Before leaving, one of them glanced towards Liu Lan and the others. Liu Lan noticed her gaze, lowered her head, and covered her face with her hands.
The girl said to her companion, "It's strange, why don't they leave?"
My companion said, "Maybe he's waiting for the next movie?"
“It doesn’t feel like it.”
This girl was very serious. She stood at the door of the screening room, took out her mobile phone, and used the cinema's official APP to check the screening schedule. She discovered something even more strange.
At this time, it was not yet ten o'clock in the evening, and it was also the Chinese Valentine's Day, so the flow of customers was very large. Every screening hall in the cinema was full. Generally, after one movie was over, the next one would start every twenty minutes. However, in this screening hall, the next movie would be shown in an hour and a half.
She grabbed her companion who was about to leave and said, "We are both single and have nothing else to do tonight. We might as well see what this couple is doing in there alone. What if it's something like what they said in the news?"
"No way. The lights in the theater are so bright, and there are surveillance cameras. Besides, the cleaners will definitely come to clean up later."
"You'll know after you take a look."
She pulled her reluctant companion, crouched down, and squatted at the door to peek.
From Liu Lan's perspective, she and Yu Zhan were the only two people left in the theater, but Yu Zhan showed no intention of leaving. She asked him,
"Here's the surprise you prepared for me," she said in an affirmative tone.
Yu Zhan smiled and said, "You are so smart, nothing can be hidden from you."
There was a hint of expectation and curiosity in Liu Lan's eyes. She stood up and looked around, but saw nothing except red velvet chairs and a large black screen.
Yu Zhan put his arm around her shoulders and led her to the screen, then stepped back a few steps and said, "Take another look."
Behind Liu Lan was a screen and in front of her were countless chairs. These were clearly placed in front of her.
Oh, yes.
She had a flash of inspiration and subconsciously raised her head, and suddenly saw that the ceiling above her head was blocked by a piece of black cloth. The four corners of the cloth were fixed, and there seemed to be something bulging inside the cloth.
When the movie was playing just now, the light was not good. When the light was good, the audience was busy coming in and out. Most people would look at the floor and pay attention to their feet. The cloth and the ceiling were both black, so who would look at the ceiling? Therefore, no one noticed the abnormality above their heads.
