Chapter 426: The Night of Return of the Soul (Screening)

After returning to the Federation, Jiang Qin rested at home for two days and then started to feel bored, so she simply went to the film set to stay.

At this time, the filming of Journey to the West was almost finished, so she only came to film one scene.

If there are no problems, we can move on to post-production editing and dubbing.

Others may not know, but Madam Yin knew exactly where Jiang Qin had gone. Seeing her return safely, a great weight was finally lifted from her heart.

"It's good that you're back. Are you alright?" She looked Jiang Qin up and down with concern in her eyes.

Seeing that she looked exactly the same as when we last met, I finally felt relieved.

Jiang Qin smiled and let her look her over. "Thank you for your concern. Everything is fine."

"That's good. Be more careful when you go out in the future. Bring more people with you. No matter where you go, you can't be alone anymore."

"Ah."

There was nothing she could do; she wanted to bring someone with her, but Xie An'an couldn't go, and the meeting didn't allow partners in.

Moreover, even if your partners go in, they might not be your own people.

This time, many females were lured to blind spots on the cruise ship by their partners or newly acquainted males and taken away. The bodies of these males were also discovered, and brain-eating amoebas were found in all of them.

So it's really impossible to guard against.

However, recently the Federation, the Empire, and all races have begun to produce manifestation potions in large quantities.

They might not be able to afford to have one for everyone, but these high-ranking females and high-ranking orcs would certainly not lack one.

After expressing her concern, Madam Yin finally got down to business with her.

"There are probably only a few more days until Journey to the West finishes filming. I wonder if you have any new plans, Xiaoqin?"

"I'll probably be preparing another movie, aiming to make it onto the charts at the end of the year."

Madam Yin nodded. "Have you come up with any ideas?"

"We don't have any ideas yet. Let's air 'The Return of the Soul' and 'Journey to the West' first."

“Okay, if there’s a chance, I hope we can work together again. I’m very interested in your scripts.”

Jiang Qin smiled and agreed, "It's our honor to have you here."

...

Five days later, filming for Journey to the West wrapped up, and at the same time, the Federation and Imperial Cinemas simultaneously released "The Return of the Soul".

[Finally, Qinbao's new work is here! Hooray!~~]
[Tsk tsk, this name, this cover, I already know what kind of subject matter it is.]
[I think it's alright. I don't find ghosts scary at all, especially the characters like Xiao Xie in Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio. Every ghost is just a dead person.]
[Hehe, you actually just wanted to say, "The female ghosts are so beautiful, right?"]
It's really beautiful, not scary at all. After watching it, I only had one thought in my mind.

If a female loved me this much, I'd be willing to become a ghost with her!
[This story of the returning soul might be similar to one from Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, perhaps just set in a different era.]
[Seriously? Are you guys crazy? If it's showing in theaters at the same time, why can't I get a ticket??]
[Damn it, even the cinemas on this small planet are packed.]
[Our Qinbao has made a name for herself now. Before, everyone doubted who would buy tickets, but now they sell out in seconds.]
[I never imagined that one day I wouldn't be able to get a single movie ticket!]
[You can wait a few days. It's already showing in many theaters and online at the same time.]

So you only need to wait a few days, and the hotel won't be overcrowded anymore.
[Oh...you mean, I, in my esteemed position, have to wait until everyone else has finished reading before I can read it?]
...

Those who couldn't get tickets are still lamenting, while those who did are already ready to enter the theater.

Jiang Qin didn't go to a physical cinema; instead, she bought online tickets and prepared to watch the movie in a holographic world.

Soon, the movie started playing, accompanied by a strange, wordless melody that sent chills down your spine just by listening to it.

The first scene depicts a man scattering paper money, while security guards form a circle below to catch objects thrown from a resident's apartment building.

Inside the stairwell, a young mother was burning paper money with her son to pay respects to her mother-in-law.

They were a family of three, along with the man who scattered paper money.

As the security guards began their patrols, the eerie atmosphere inside the building grew increasingly intense.

Inside the theater, people were whispering: "The ghost hasn't shown up yet. Do you think it might be this old woman?" "I think so too. This old woman's black and white photo looks really scary."

The film slowly plays out a scene where the child in a family of three goes missing, and is then found secretly eating a chicken leg in the kitchen.

"There's something strange about this little cub's eyes."

"It might be due to the director's filming technique; because it's dark around us, the whites of our eyes are more noticeable?"

In the original Earth film, this is when Stephen Chow makes his appearance.

He was talking to himself alone in the stairwell, and he even drank some alcohol. In the end, he left in style, carrying a flowerpot and with paper money scattering behind him.

This scene was witnessed by a young woman.

The next part of the story involves the little boy disappearing again, leaving his mother alone at home.

The room lights suddenly turned on, the light bulbs flickered as if there was a bad connection, the rocking chair was rocking wildly even though no one was sitting on it, and the voices suddenly appeared on the black and white television.

By this time, no one in the movie theater was speaking; everyone was staring intently at the holographic screen with wide eyes.

This is a holographic movie viewing experience, the immersive feeling is absolutely amazing.

Just then, a scream erupted in the theater: "Ah—"

"Fuck!!"

"Oh my god, there's a ghost!!"

The screams of the audience and the screams of the film's daughter-in-law rang out at the same time.

On the old-fashioned black-and-white television, the figure of an old woman appeared, and her face was none other than the family's deceased grandmother.

Startled by the sudden scene, everyone was unable to calm down for a long time.

Someone suddenly noticed a dark shadow next to them, and was so frightened that they immediately stood up and ran away, shouting, "There's a ghost! There's a ghost in the movie theater!"

"Where? Where??"

"Ahhh, I'm so scared, don't come looking for me."

"Help--"

The females huddled trembling in their partners' arms, too afraid to open their eyes.

Chaos erupted inside the theater until someone bravely looked inside and exclaimed speechlessly, "Are you blind? Where did this ghost come from? It's a spirit!"

Only then did the trembling people around dare to open their eyes and look over.

As a result, inside the cinema, many female spiritual beings were trembling.

Some hid under seats, some lay on the floor covering their eyes, and some even hid directly in people's arms or clothes.

Everyone: "..."

What's most frustrating is that, despite trembling, these spiritual entities still radiate a calming power, soothing the spiritual energy.

So they were frightened by these spirit entities?

Everyone was extremely embarrassed, and one by one they pretended nothing had happened and sat back down in their original seats.

"Heh heh heh I knew it, how could there be ghosts in interstellar space? Heh heh..."

"Yes, yes, it's all a misunderstanding..."

"Actually, what I just shouted was that there were bugs, do you believe me?"
