I play wind instruments in Kansai.

The four went to the movie theater.

The movie has only been released for less than a month, but it has already generated a lot of buzz online. However, since it involves childbirth, opinions in society are divided.

"Junior Gongling, you must have a lot of girls asking you to go to the movies, right?" An Hechun turned around and asked him.

"No."

In this regard, Miyamine Nozomi does not want to boast unfoundedly, but she will not actively deny it either.

"But if someone invites me, I would probably think it over."

An Hechun clasped her hands behind her back and said with a smile:

"Yeah, going to the movies alone with a girl is pretty dangerous, isn't it?"

"Why?" Kohinata asked curiously.

"Because aquariums, movie theaters, and Ferris wheels are recognized as popular places for confessions of love. If a girl agrees to go with you alone, then she is very likely interested in you too."

“Indeed.” Miyamine Nozomi wholeheartedly agreed.

An Hechun said with one eye open and one eye closed:

"So, Hinata, if someone asks you to go to these places alone, it's very likely that they like you."

"Well......."

A bitter expression appeared on Kohinata's face. She raised her hands and tapped her fingers back and forth in the air, saying...

"Actually, I have never been to any of these three places."

"Huh?" An Hechun said in astonishment, "How is that possible! Someone has never been to a movie theater?"

Kohinata's face is like a pumpkin:

"What's the big deal? Students' job is to study, not to go out and have fun."

"What kind of family education did you receive...?"

"Hmm..."

Surprisingly, when faced with An and Jun's questioning, Kohinata Hina did not choose to defend her family education.

“I’ve been to Gongling many times,” she said in a low voice.

Miyamine Nozomi didn't explain, but continued following up on what Kohinata Hina had said:

"It seems that my future love autobiography will still need to be written by Kohinata-kun, since you know more details and richer content."

"I'm going to buy some snacks, what do you guys want?" An Hechun asked.

Kohinata Hinata quickly asked, "Do you really eat popcorn when you watch a movie at the cinema?"

"That's right..."

An Hechun doesn't actually like eating while watching movies.

Moreover, popcorn is not among her "tastes".

"A small portion, please." Xiao Ri Xiang Yang Cai held up one finger.

Gong Lingwang looked at Bai Shitong and said softly, "Would you like to eat something?"

However, she simply shook her head.

"I'll just have a small serving of popcorn, and an iced Coke... I'll go with you."

Instead of talking here, let's help her carry her things.

"OK, the air conditioning in the screening room is usually pretty strong, so bring a few blankets just in case."

Anhe Jun seemed to have a lot of experience, and Miyamine asked curiously:

"Is Anhe always out having fun like this?"

"No, it's just a habit to do your research in advance."

An Hechun smiled at him and said,

"After all, I was the one who invited Kohinata out to play, so I have to be prepared for this."

"Senior Anhe, you're such a kind person."

"Everyone says that, that I'm an angel!"

An Hechun didn't mince words either, making a heart shape with her hands towards Gong Lingwang.

"So whenever Doraemon wants something fun to play with, he should think of me first."

Gongling Wang sighed and said:

"I really don't have anything to do lately, and the thing I used before is no longer working."

The badges are gone just like that, what a waste.

"Then why were you with Shiraishi-senpai today?" An Hejun asked the question that she hadn't asked all day.

"I want to build a good relationship with her." Gong Lingwang didn't say much more.

I bought popcorn and water; the blanket was provided by the cinema, and it was just in time to go in.

The movie hadn't even started yet, but the audience was already quite full, mostly young people, since it wasn't exactly a family-friendly film.

The four of them sat together.

Kohinata Hina seemed to be genuinely visiting a movie theater for the first time, instinctively picking up her phone to take pictures of her surroundings.

Just then, the movie started playing a "No Recording" message, which startled her so much that she put her phone away again.

Because Miyamine Nozomi is a boy, he sits by the aisle. To his left is Shiraishi Hitomi, and further in are Kohika Hinata and Anwa Jun.

Is this the person who looks the most worried and the most vulnerable in the middle?

He always thought that Senior Anhe was very caring, which was why she was so popular at school—she was beautiful and kind-hearted.

Miyamine Nozomi opened the bag containing the small blanket and laid it out on Shiraishi Hitomi's bare thighs.

He wasn't cold; he had walked for several hours today and was finally able to sit down for a while.

I popped a kernel of popcorn into my mouth, ready to see why this game adaptation became such a popular film.

The movie officially begins with a first-person perspective of a crowded city street.

The baby's cries in the carriage angered a man in a suit in front of her, who then began to hurl insults at the woman.

This action immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the carriage, but no one spoke up to stop it, including the male protagonist, who all acted as if it was none of his business.

Miyamune Nozomi understood perfectly; when Shiraishi Hitomi sat on his lap today, the people in the carriage were just as indifferent.

When Koharu saw the man in the suit yelling at a woman holding a baby, she instantly got into character, clenching her fists as if she wanted to step into the scene and uphold justice.

It would be perfect as a movie trailer.

Then, the male protagonist stepped out of the crowded carriage, and his ex-girlfriend called to say that she was pregnant. The male protagonist seemed stunned, clearly not prepared for this.

Before I could answer, the cell phone signal suddenly weakened, and the screen showed the time as 9:40, marking the start of the movie.

The corridor was deserted, with a few advertising posters hanging on the walls, and a middle-aged man in a shirt walked towards us.

At first, the male protagonist didn't think anything of it, he was just confused.

But as the cycle continues, the same lockers and trash cans gradually turn this feeling into panic.

According to the rules, if there is an anomaly, turn back; if there is no anomaly, proceed. You can leave through Exit 8.

When the male protagonist passed through the corridor for the fourth time, the footsteps behind him suddenly disappeared.

Turning around, he saw the middle-aged man standing behind him with a forced smile.

"Whoa—!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

"Wait, am I the only one who noticed that this guy in the suit isn't wearing a nipple cover?"

The once quiet audience seats were filled with completely different reactions.

Kohinata Haruna was startled, while An Kazumi next to her seemed quite pleased with her reaction, raising her hand to cover her mouth and laughing.

These things meant nothing to Miyamine Nozomi; they were merely a slight prick to her nerves.

He glanced at Shiraishi Hitomi beside him. Her eyes were gleaming with the light of the screen, and her beautiful face remained impassive, completely unaffected.

Gong Lingwang hesitated for a moment, then leaned closer to her and whispered:

Are you scared?

However, she did not respond, so Miyamune gently squeezed her arm.

Hitomi Shiraishi's delicate body visibly trembled, her eyelashes quivering slightly. It turned out she wasn't completely unresponsive; she was utterly terrified.

Miyamine Nozomi could understand; the man in the shirt's smile was terribly stiff.

"It's alright, I'm here," Gong Lingwang said softly.

Shiraishi Hitomi didn't speak, but simply pursed her lips and pulled the blanket up a little.

The movie continues, and it turns out that the man in the shirt from before wasn't an NPC; he was also someone who got lost here.

He walked for a while.

Unlike the male protagonist, the person he encounters in the loop is a beautiful and youthful high school girl with extremely voluptuous thighs and a cute face, and short hair.

The girl's skirt was extremely short, and the hem of her top completely covered the hem of the plaid skirt, making it appear as if she wasn't wearing anything at all, which further accentuated her plump thighs.

"It's even shorter than the skirt of Haruki's uniform, isn't it?" Miyamine Nozomi thought subconsciously.

The girl gently asked if she was lost and offered to walk together.

No one would think of refusing a beautiful young girl's request, and the older man felt the same way.

"Squeezing onto the crowded subway to go to work, repeating the same routine day after day, isn't that hell? It's so pathetic."

The older man didn't think so.

But the girl kept repeating that sentence, which frightened the man so much that he realized this was also part of the anomaly, and he quickly ran away.

As the plot became more and more interesting, Miyamine Nozomi gradually got into the movie-watching mode, and didn't even drink popcorn or water.

Another protagonist is a boy who, despite being a child, possesses observational skills far exceeding those of adults, and is able to keenly observe abnormalities.

"Speak up! If you know anything wrong, then speak up! Tell me!"

But he just wouldn't say a word, which made the movie-watching Hina Kohinata so anxious that she gritted her teeth and wanted to climb in and do it herself.

An Hechun whispered:

"I hate teammates like this the most when playing games. They know where there is a problem but don't report it."

Gongling Wang nodded; he was indeed very angry.

The movie continues.

Suddenly, the light bulb began to flicker, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness. Kohinata hunched her shoulders slightly and reached out to grasp Anwa Jun's arm.

At this moment, Miyane Nozomi noticed that Shiraishi Hitomi had suddenly come closer. He initially thought she was also frightened, but soon a blanket was covered over him.

"No need, I'm not cold."

As he spoke in a low voice, a sudden gasp of surprise rang out from the surrounding area.

What? What happened?

Miyamine looked at the screen with great frustration, but could only see the back of the middle-aged man under the flashlight, and nothing else.

Missed it!

“Tsk…” Gong Lingwang clicked his tongue in regret.

Hitomi Shiraishi covered Nozomi Miyamine's lap with the checkered blanket, then slipped her little hands under the edge of the blanket.

Gong Lingwang froze. The screen was showing a scene of darkness and panic, the surrounding light was dim, and all around him were strangers watching the movie intently.

Hitomi Shiraishi's fingertips, through a thin layer of fabric, accurately located the spot.

Gong Lingwang was struck dumb. He had thought that the blanket was for Shiraishi Hitomi to keep him warm, but he never expected that it was there to "kill" him.

Blood rushed to his head, his cheeks burned, and his ears rang. The horror movie became a distant and meaningless scene in Miyamine Nozomi's eyes.
