Chapter 7: The Red Umbrella
After more than an hour, it was already driving to the city center.
It was stuffy in the car, so I casually turned on the air conditioner and let go of the radio.
A female anchor with a standard pronunciation is broadcasting the news.
Listen to the news, drive safely, and travel well.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the once-in-a-century heavy rain is approaching the city, so everyone should take precautions. Thunderstorms are frequent, please do not use mobile phones and computers at will, prevent lightning strikes, and try to go out as much as possible if there is nothing particularly important. ”
The voice on the radio made my heart 'chuckle', I usually don't pay attention to the weather at all, but now I know, feelings, a huge rainstorm is coming?
Only then did I notice that the sky in the distance was already black, and I could faintly see the electric light scurrying in the clouds.
No wonder there are fewer pedestrians on the streets of the city today, and the number of vehicles has also decreased.
"Meteorological experts predict that the wind may break through to more than 10."
I was shocked by what came over the radio, and this kind of rain and hurricane weather is really not suitable for travel.
Seeing that the heavy dark clouds are about to reach the sky over the city.
Ten thousand strange beasts rushed through my heart, trampled on broken and scattered.
"We need to find a place to shelter before the rainstorm."
I looked into the inverted mirror and spoke to Ning Yuru.
She opened her eyes and looked ahead, staring at the clouds that were getting closer and closer, muttering, nodding slowly, still not speaking.
Even if you are a high-ranking person, when you encounter such a disastrous weather, you have to take shelter from the limelight for a while, as for whether it will delay time because of this? I can't care about that much at the moment.
I wasn't looking at her, concentrating on driving.
If the wind force breaks through level 10, it will be very dangerous, and it is possible to lift billboards and high-altitude objects into the air, and if you are unlucky, you will be hit by a car on the street, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
I'm in a city that faces the sea, and this kind of terrible weather happens a few times a year, but as a migrant worker myself, I don't have the calmness and experience of locals facing heavy rains and hurricanes.
"Boom!"
With a deafening bang, lightning pierced the sky, and the whole world became dark, and visibility was very low.
I don't have much of an impact on my night vision, but it is foreseeable that the residents of the city will be greatly affected.
"Whoa!"
The weather is changing, and just a few minutes after the broadcast, a thunderstorm covered the entire city, and the raindrops of beans poured down without money.
There is rain between heaven and earth, and the water is overwhelming, as if someone has poked a big hole in the sky and released the water of the heavenly river to the world.
When I arrived at the downtown square, I looked to the right and saw 'Zunle Cinema'.
As soon as I hit the steering wheel, I drove towards the studio.
Just before the peak of the rainstorm, the car drove into the underground parking lot of the studio.
The parking lot was overcrowded, and it was not easy to find a parking space.
After locking the door, Ning Yuru and I walked up the stairs to the ticket hall on the ground floor.
Although I am in the name of the son of the Jiang family, Jiang Du's information is kept secret to the outside world, the media has never taken a clear recent photo of Jiang Du, Ning Yuru is beautiful and beautiful, but there are many beauties around, so we are not conspicuous when we walk in the crowd.
Besides, people are panicking, everyone takes out their mobile phones and contacts at home, everyone is busy, who will notice us?
Suddenly, I felt the phone in my trouser pocket vibrating, and when I took it out, I saw that it was Zhao Yuhong calling.
With a wry smile, he pressed the answer button.
"Xiaodu, where are you? Didn't you say to come back today? Who wants a sudden heavy rainstorm? It's also my fault for not paying attention to the weather forecast. ”
He said anxiously.
"Brother Zhao, I'm sheltering from the rain in Zunle Cinema, everything is fine, don't worry." I hurriedly replied.
When I arrived in the hall, Ning Yuru found a place to sit down, and I also found a secluded place to talk to Zhao Yuhong.
"Do you want us to rush over?" Zhao Yuhong means to dispatch a team of bodyguards.
"No, no, no one knows me here, it's safe, when the rain is over and the sky clears, Master Ning and I will set off again."
"Well, be careful, and let me know if you change your mind."
"Okay, Brother Zhao." I replied and cut off the phone.
At this moment, the internal radio of the studio sounded.
The male anchor with a mellow voice first calmed the emotions of the people who were sheltering from the rain, saying that the infrastructure of the studio has been tested for a long time, and a storm of this level does not bring much danger.
One-stop service inside the studio, there is no problem with food, clothing and housing, everyone can stay here with peace of mind.
If you want to relieve your boredom, you can buy a movie ticket to watch the movie in the theater, and in particular, in half an hour, a new horror movie will be screened here, and people who are sheltered from the rain can be discounted by 7%.
After the broadcast, everyone's mood stabilized.
Through the glass window, you can see the lightning and thunder outside, the hurricane is raging, and the trees on the street are blown off.
"Horror movie screening?" I muttered, looked around, and saw the poster of the movie.
Super Pen Fairy Smash Bros.
The name is prominently displayed on the poster.
When this name caught my eye, I shook my head in disappointment, just looking at this vulgar name, I knew that the standard of the screenwriter and director was low.
There are endless movies about pen immortals, but to be honest, there are really few that can be made well.
I took a look at the starring lineup, except for the first heroine, who has a little impression that she is a third-tier female star, the other roles are used by newcomers, and the director and screenwriter are not very famous.
With such an actor configuration, it is even more difficult to get out of the encirclement and get a high box office in a month full of foreign and domestic blockbusters.
I turned my head to look out the window, and the darkness completely covered the whole city, and the heavy rain continued, and it seemed that it would not stop for five or six hours.
"Well, since it's an on-demand screening, then you can watch the content of the film as early as possible, which can satisfy your curiosity, so I'll buy an on-demand ticket to watch it."
Sometimes, the lead actor and director will also come to the screening site.
Although the third-rate female star is not very famous, I have a good impression of her.
Not to mention her young and good-looking, she mainly has acting skills, and she really passes this aspect.
It is said that I never used a stand-in when I made a movie, and I was injured many times because of this, but it has been tepid, which can only be said to be due to luck.
I admire the dedicated actors, and it wouldn't be bad if I could see her at the screening.
Thinking of this, I walked back and said, "Master Ning, look, I won't be able to leave for a while, why don't we go into the theater and watch a movie?" ”
Ning Yuru looked at me in surprise and replied: "You and I are not a couple, watching a movie together, isn't it good?" ”
I was speechless.
"Go and see for yourself, I'm meditating here, it's considered a practice, come and call me when you leave." Ning Yuru crossed her legs in the chair, which attracted some people to look at her.
"The master really has a strange temper." With these words churning in my heart, I answered in a sneering voice and walked away on my own.
Since people don't give face, then I'll go to the movies myself.
secretly looked at Ning Yuru, who was meditating and closing his eyes as if no one was around, and helplessly spread his hands, so he went to buy a ticket for the screening of the Super Pen Immortal Smash Bros.
But what makes people a little unhappy is that in order to strictly prevent theft, the theater requires moviegoers to hand over their mobile phones and various recording tools.
They will take care of it and will be able to retrieve their mobile phones with the storage key.
"Yes, I'll just follow the customs, there are indeed such and such rules when watching the screening, and there is nothing to blame."
I was a little unhappy, I was patient, turned off the mobile phone and handed it to the staff, and watched the phone be put into the locker and locked, so I was more down-to-earth, put away the key to the locker, and took the ticket to the screening hall.
After checking in the ticket, follow the instructions on the ticket and take the elevator to the third floor, where the film will be screened in a screening hall on the third floor.
Bite!
The elevator doors opened, and it was already on the third floor.
I walked along the corridor and soon found the screening room marked on the ticket, and was about to walk in when my heart suddenly chuckled, because out of the corner of my eye, I noticed a touch of red around me.
But I didn't hear footsteps before.
casually walked a few steps to the side, let the opening of the door of the theater position, very natural glance.
A woman in a long red dress, with red nails in her hand and a red-faced umbrella that was tucked up but dripping with water, walked into the screening room step by step, as if she didn't see me at all.
She wore red flat sandals and didn't move at all when she walked.
Her hair was long, dyed fiery red, and she had fashionable big waves, which were not wet by the rain, but they covered half of her face, and she couldn't see her appearance clearly, but judging from the outline of the small half of her face that was exposed, she should be a beauty who could score seven points.
I watched her walk into the screening room and breathed a sigh of relief.
secretly laughed at himself for being such a big man, but his courage has become so small, a woman who walks silently can scare herself, can she still mix?
I settled down, and then I walked into the screening room, and there was no movie yet, and the lighting was still there.
Take a look, heh, it's different from what I thought, I thought that the fame of the movie was small, and the attendance rate must be low, but I don't want to, seventy percent of the seats in the theater are occupied, not to mention, this is a good thing for the movie.
I chose the central position, and according to the number on the ticket stub, I found a seat and sat down, but my eyes were fixed.
The red-haired woman in red was sitting on the diagonal side of the front row, three or four seats away from me.
Still only the small half of the woman's face could be seen.
Retracting my gaze, I looked towards the front row, but I didn't see the main actor and director appear, and I was a little disappointed in my heart.
According to the rules, the people sitting in the front row should be friends of the media.
Inviting the media to watch the movie is an indispensable part of the screening, if after watching the movie, the media people are unanimously praised, and when the official premiere is in season, you can usher in the fruits of the harvest.
Of course, if the quality of the film is not up to par, and the media gives a poor or average evaluation, the box office will inevitably be affected, and in this sense, the evaluation of the media is very important.
I looked around, and on the seats behind me, most of them were young people who were talking to each other, hiding in a secluded corner, and those who watched the movie in front of me really came to the film, most of them sat upright, waited quietly, and looked very quality.
No one is making a lot of noise, which makes people feel comfortable.
There is still a minute left before the screening.
A pair of young people ran in hand in hand, and the girl ran in front, saying as she ran: "It's all your fault, what kind of phone call?" Delay watching the movie. ”
The boy in the back followed speechlessly, not daring to refute.
They ran to the row in front of me, motioned for the seaters to get out of the way, and marched toward their seats with their tickets in hand.
Crash!
The lights inside the auditorium are turned off, the big screen in front of you is lit up, and the film is about to begin.
And I, the pupils of my eyes suddenly shrank into a point!
The young couple sat down, the problem was that the place where the girl was sitting was already there, and it was the red-haired woman in red clothes.
A terrible scene appeared before my eyes.
has the ability to see at night, even if it is a little hazy, it is far clearer than ordinary people.
The girl sat down in her seat, she didn't see the woman in red at all, and in my eyes, the woman in red and the girl overlapped each other!
As if sensing something, the red-haired woman in red turned her head sharply.
"Whew!"
I gasped and broke out in a cold sweat.
Her bloodless face appeared in my field of vision, and it was nothing, the point was that her two eyeballs were in a state of falling out of their sockets, held by only two fleshy tendons.
At this moment, those two big, blood-red and hideous eyes are staring at me upright!
