Vol.2 - Chapter 33 – Unexpected result

The second day.

For the 13th Degree Cinema, it was a very important day.

"Ghost Festival 3" was released, a day that the actors had been waiting for three months.

Cheng Xuesong was the first to arrive at the restaurant. She was still the same, always wearing a tight leather jacket, showing off her super sexy figure that was no less than that of a Western woman.

For Cheng Xuesong, after today, it was impossible to predict whether she would live or die.

"Xuesong?"

Cheng Xuesong turned her head when she heard this familiar voice.

Fang Leng was standing there, looking at her. At this moment, his hair was neatly combed, and there was a sense of confidence in his eyes. After waiting for three months, finally, the day had come.

In the spacious restaurant, there were only Fang Leng and Cheng Xuesong.

"You're here." Cheng Xuesong said lightly.

She was always so glamorous, like a cold pine tree in the snow, standing tall. She had the confidence to match anyone she faced. Even if that person was Fang Leng.

Fang Leng walked towards her slowly and asked in a calm tone, "How was your rest last night?"

"Not bad." Cheng Xuesong found a seat and sat down. Fang Leng sat opposite her.

"It's a pity about Yu Chen's death, but I will do my best and never give up on any of you."

"There's no need." Cheng Xuesong didn't appreciate Fang Leng's kindness at all. "I'm enough on my own."

Being alone seemed arrogant, but the one saying this was Cheng Xuesong. Even in the 20th Degree Hell Cinema, she was a famous woman.

"Go get some food." Cheng Xuesong stood up, looking down at Fang Leng, and said in a cold tone, "I don't need anyone to protect me."

No matter when, Cheng Xuesong was like the Snow Queen, with a noble and stubborn posture that could break hearts.

Seeing her like this, Fang Leng felt relieved. This was the attitude Cheng Xuesong should have. She didn't show any signs of retreat because of the deaths of Yu Chen and the others or the loss of the cursed objects.

No, Fang Leng couldn't imagine Cheng Xuesong showing a submissive expression. Even if she was overwhelmed by terror and faced despair, she would never give up. For her, self-esteem was above everything else.

Then, people started coming into the restaurant one after another. Most of them gathered around Fang Leng.

Fang Leng, Cheng Xuesong, Li Weisi, Mo Qiushi, and Shi Qingxiu were surrounded in the middle.

"Whether to change the plan to obtain the sheepskin paper is still uncertain." Fang Leng said, "Currently, including the high heels lent to us by Ye Xiang, we have a total of four cursed objects. So..."

"Your voodoo doll is a consumable cursed object," Bai Yushuo reminded from the side. "And it has already been used once. Be careful this time."

Ye Xiang then took out the high heels in front of everyone and placed them on the table. At the same time, Li Weisi submitted the rental application through the Hell Cinema and paid Ye Xiang 500 Death Redemption Tickets!

Yes, 500!

This result surprised Ye Xiang. He noticed Fang Leng's expression and immediately realized that it was done at his request. Of course, no one around knew that he had an extra 100 Death Redemption Tickets. They thought it was the 400 Death Redemption Tickets. Fang Leng wouldn't expose him. Maybe the extra 100 Death Redemption Tickets were also provided by Fang Leng.

This made him feel somewhat grateful to Fang Leng.

The rental procedure was set to be completed after the screening of "Ghost Festival 3". Li Weisi also breathed a sigh of relief after the procedure was completed. For him, exchanging 500 Death Redemption Tickets for the rental of these high heels was already a great deal.

"Four cursed objects for the dead... should be enough for self-protection. But it won't be easy to obtain the sheepskin paper." Jiao Mengqi, who had been ignored by everyone, spoke up at another table. "In that case, I wish you all a safe return."

Everyone looked at her coldly and didn't bother to pay much attention. Her curse tattoo couldn't be rented, and she was happy to make sarcastic remarks. But no one wanted to offend her. If they were to act in the same movie in the future, they would still have to rely on her to survive.

"No need to worry, Jiao Mengqi." Li Weisi looked at her coldly. "We will definitely come back alive."

During this process, Wen Yufan silently watched, ate a little, and then left the restaurant. In this dim and eerie cinema, there was never enough light anywhere. As she walked past a screening hall, she was about to go upstairs when her footsteps suddenly stopped!

Then, Wen Yufan looked over!

In front of that screening hall, there was a new poster that she hadn't seen before.

The horror movie on this poster was called "Return". And in the cast list, she suddenly saw her own name! In the poster, it was a gloomy night, and a mansion was shrouded in darkness. In the darkness, a misty figure could be vaguely seen!

A new movie!

The release date was August 7, 2013!

Wen Yufan's new movie!

She approached the poster slowly, looking at the cast list, and memorizing the names of the actors who were also in the movie with her.

"Is this your second horror movie?" a familiar voice came from beside her. Wen Yufan looked over and found Ye Xiang standing there."The male lead is Fang Leng, and the female lead is Bai Yushuo!" Ye Xiang read this and showed a relieved expression, "You're quite lucky, Miss Wen. With these two around, your chances of survival will be greatly increased. When the time comes, I'll also rent you the high heels."

Wen Yufan stared at the poster for a long time before she said, "How could I be lucky to enter this place?"

Ye Xiang was taken aback, but before he could say anything, Wen Yufan looked at him, her eyes already filled with tears.

"I've never been lucky in my life."

After saying this, she turned and ran upstairs without looking back, leaving Ye Xiang standing there in a daze. He noticed that after Wen Yufan left, he also followed her out. After all, she was a newcomer actress he met during his first horror film, so he naturally felt closer to Wen Yufan.

"Ghost Sacrifice 3" was to be screened in the afternoon, and Fang Leng and the others were all making final preparations. The entire cinema was filled with a tense atmosphere.

Everyone was waiting, waiting...

For the terrifying moment to arrive!

In the afternoon, everyone was ready. At the Thirteenth Degree Hell Cinema, everyone gathered in the fifth screening room.

There were less than twenty minutes left before "Ghost Sacrifice 3" was to be screened.

At this moment, everyone was extremely nervous. Even Fang Leng himself felt a bit oppressed. Even he was not sure if he could survive. This was a top-level horror film. If five of them went in, it would be a great result if three could come back. Moreover, they only brought four cursed items with them.

"Fang Leng, remember, you must come back alive." Bai Yushuo was sitting next to Fang Leng at this time. She couldn't accompany Fang Leng this time. Everything depended on him, Li Weisi, and Cheng Xuesong. With Li Weisi, who had the high heels, he should be able to help Fang Leng.

Fang Leng once again confirmed the cursed item on his chest.

This would be... his biggest lifeline!

However, at this moment, the movie screen suddenly lit up! This startled everyone because there was still some time before the movie started!

The three words "Ghost Sacrifice 3" began to appear, and below them, a line of text began to emerge.

"'Ghost Sacrifice 3' is postponed due to circumstances. The new release date is October 4, 2013."

This announcement was shocking.

"This... this is..." Li Weisi was the first to stand up, pointing at the screen, "How could this happen?"

"Someone must have died." However, Bai Yushuo was very calm. She looked at Fang Leng next to her and said, "It seems that not only Hailan, but at least two actors from the Seventh Degree Hell Cinema have also died. If more than two actors from the original cast list die, the script needs to be reorganized, and the movie postponed, which makes sense."

"Yes, this situation is mentioned in the rules." Fang Leng also remembered. However, with so many rules ingrained in his mind, it was normal that he couldn't remember them all at once.

Ye Xiang stared blankly at the announcement on the screen.

This was indeed... an unexpected result.
