This is not a weird story

Wei An followed him out of the second screening room, but saw that Zhang Zuxia did not leave the cinema, but continued to walk to other screening rooms.

"We can't think of a way to save the three people watching the movie there?" Wei An asked.

At this time, there was silence outside the screening room, but the invisible weirdness was nowhere to be found.

Zhang Zuxia heard Wei An's words and did not answer immediately, but said: "Do you have any conclusion about the cause of death of those people downstairs now?"

Wei An found that it was more difficult for him to communicate with Zhang Zuxia. The reason may be that both of them have strong independent thoughts. Even when talking, they maintain their own opinions and speaking methods, so it is difficult for the other party to lead the rhythm. He was led along the other party's topic.

However, the current situation is more favorable to Wei An, because Zhang Zuxia is at least able to communicate well, and it is not as difficult as imagined.

If this guy can maintain this mental state, Wei An is sure that he can successfully complete this task.

He paused and replied to Zhang Zuxia: "My first reaction to the dead people downstairs may be the same as yours. They were all scared to death."

"No." Zhang Zuxia shook his head, "My first reaction was not like this. They did look like they were scared to death, but you have seen a few people whose eyes were bloodshot when they were scared to death, and they even had bloodshot eyes. The eyeballs are all bulging out? I have observed that on average, more than half of the ten deceased people have eyeballs that are much more protruding than ordinary people. This is not an accident."

"So how do you think they died?" Wei An asked directly.

Zhang Zuxia did not answer this time, but waved to him, then turned and entered the third screening room.

Wei An was a little puzzled and quickly followed in.

This time he discovered that Zhang Zuxia did not turn on his small flashlight when he entered the absolutely dark environment of the screening room.

However, he seemed to be fiddling with something in his hand, which made Wei An quickly find his location and walked over.

Zhang Zuxia lowered his voice and said: "Be mentally prepared and don't speak loudly. The scene you see next may surprise you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the flashlight in his hand suddenly turned on, but it turned on another dark light mode. The flashlight light was not light yellow or incandescent light, but a deep purple light.

This kind of flashlight is a special equipment given to the investigators here by the Fancheng Bureau. The Zhoucheng Bureau does not have this condition at all.

In the dark light mode, when Wei An suddenly saw the scene in front of him, he was really shocked.

The screening room he is currently in is a large screening room, which should be the largest in this cinema. The screen is an IMAX ring-shaped giant screen, and the seats in front of the giant screen are almost full of men and women, watching in silence. Looking ahead, everyone seemed to be staring at the giant screen that had already been extinguished.

If he hadn't seen these people through the dark light mode, Wei An would have thought that this screening room was the same as the previous one and that it was empty.

There are hundreds of people sitting here, but it feels empty until you see it with your own eyes. You don't need to think about Wei An to know that all of these people are probably dead.

He slowly walked to the audience in the row closest to him, bent down and looked, and found that all their eyes were open, but their eyeballs were covered with a thin layer of gray film.

He checked his breathing and found that he was no longer breathing.

Looking at the number of people sitting here, I estimate that if all the people on the fourth floor were added up, the number should be similar to the number here. In other words, all the missing people on the fourth floor should be sitting in this screening room at this moment.

"Although it is only C-level, the rules of this ghost story are very strong! I have never seen such a strong rule." Zhang Zuxia said in a low voice: "These people should have sat here and watched the entire movie. As the screen turned off, And all died.”

"In other words, they were still alive when watching the movie, and then died immediately after the movie ended?" Wei An was surprised.

Then he thought of the three investigators who were still watching the movie in the first screening room. If the movie ended, these three people would probably die soon like the people here.

Zhang Zuxia nodded, "Don't disturb them. Once you disturb them, they will die immediately."

As he spoke, he pointed to the last row.

Wei An walked over and squatted down to take a look, and found a man lying on the ground here, and the seat in front of him was empty, indicating that the man was originally sitting here.

It seemed that this man should have been sitting here watching a movie upright, but he was pulled or disturbed by Zhang Zuxia, so he immediately fell to the ground and died.

Therefore, when Zhang Zuxia arrived, the movie in this screening room was still being shown, and even now it may have just ended.

"How long will it take for the movie in Auditorium 1 over there to end?" Wei An asked.

"I don't know, but I estimate there are still forty or fifty minutes." Zhang Zuxia replied, "We can't do anything, so don't try to save them. As an investigator, even the most basic danger judgment is lacking. Even if we rescue them These are the same people who will be in danger next, and by incurring danger we will be affected as well."

It can be seen that this guy basically has the same idea as another former investigator Hou Yun on this point.

Wei An was stunned for a moment, then blurted out: "Besides Screening Room No. 1, are there still screening rooms here that are still showing movies?"

Zhang Zuxia nodded, "Take a turn at the end and go in. The last screening room No. 9 is showing a movie right now. Are you interested in going in and taking a look?"

In this way, Wei An figured out the general situation here. At first, everyone on the fourth floor entered the giant screen screening room on the third floor to watch the movie, and then they all died when the movie ended.

Then the three investigators also entered the No. 1 auditorium where the movie started playing at some point. Originally, they might have been just curious and started investigating, but they didn't want to lose their consciousness soon.

At the same time, theater No. 9 also started playing. These are the situations that Zhang Zuxia has grasped.

It seems that it is most dangerous to enter a screening room where a movie is being played when there is no audience. When there are already viewers in the screening room who are attracted to sit down and watch the movie, other people who enter will not be able to enter unless they also sit directly on the seats to watch. Controlled consciousness.

This proves that Wei An was not controlled when he entered auditorium No. 1. Of course, he did not sit down at that time.

Zhang Zuxia was originally only half-joking when he said that there was a screening in Auditorium No. 9 and asked Wei An to try it, but he didn't expect that Wei An's eyes lit up after hearing this and he nodded immediately.

"Okay, I'll try it now."

Now Wei An knew that Zhang Zuxia would not rescue the three investigators, but what was his mission? Part of it is to prevent the three investigators from being harmed, whether it is Zhang Zuxia's harm or the harm from the ghost story.

It would be fine if they were already dead, but now that there was clearly a chance to rescue him, he couldn't just give up.

After finishing speaking, Wei An turned around and walked out, but soon he stopped again, turned to Zhang Zuxia and said: "I know what you mean now. These people are not scared to death, maybe they are really scared, But it was not fatal. They were subject to this strange rule, and died because of the forcible increase in fear due to the power of the rule. Or, to be more precise, they were deliberately made to show the feeling of being frightened to death, because the protrusions and cloth The bloodshot eyeballs are really very deliberate.”
