Mama is in a bind, she could not decide.
Then let
help her decide.
Ning Ning reached out towards the Masked Man. Give it to .
Under the pale-white street light, a smiling mask was looking at her.
The one you want the most is . Ning Ning asked in reply, Isnt it?
She had long known that she was the Masked Mans first choice, he only switched his target to Mama when he could not get what he wanted.
A laughter rang out from beneath the mask, it had a hint of slyness of soone who had had their way. It was enough to let you suspect his motive for luring Ning Yu Ren, was it to lure Ning Ning then force her to accept the ticket in his hand?
As he was about to hand the ticket over to Ning Ning, he suddenly seed to have heard sothing from one side of his ears.
That was quick. He tsk-ed, then turned and ran before he could hand the ticket over to Ning Ning.
He looked big and tall but he made no sound when he ran. The white prison uniform was fluttering in the air, as you looked at him from afar he looked like a paper person twirling in the wind.
Then, Ning Ning also heard the sound.
What sound was it? Footsteps, and
A figure galloped past her the mont she turned her head.
White socks, black cloth shoes, carrying a bulging bag, with a snow-white mask on his face that was covered in raging flas.
It was the Doorman.
Where do you think youre going? He let out a ferocious laugh towards the direction the Masked Man had escaped to. He chased after the Masked Man, leaving a trail of flas behind his mask. The flas burned and danced dyeing the surrounding air in crimson.
Sothing fell out of his pocket from behind him. It fell to the ground and spun around twice. Ning Ning bent over and picked it up.
It was a mask.
She held the mask and looked up in the direction the Doorman had left. Although he had already left, the air was still filled with the sll of sothing burnt, it was quite pungent.
What, what was that? Ning Yu Rens legs were wobbly from being scared, she held herself up on the wall. Was that a human?
Was he a human?
Were they humans?
Ning Ning also wanted to know the answer to this question.
The sound of the commotion had finally attracted people, a few residents turned on their lights and opened their windows. Soone poked their head out, a few people ran over from a short distance away, there seed to be a few familiar faces, a few familiar voices.
The crew is here for us. Ning Ning turned back. Lets go back.
Ning Yu Ren unexpectedly took a step back and shook her head.
Im not going back. Its useless if I go back like this anyway. She fell silent for a mont, then suddenly looked up and gnashed her teeth. 35 Rogue Street, right?
Ning Ning was stunned, then answered with helplessness and bitterness, Yes.
The two of them arrived at 35 Rogue Street. When the two familiar clusters of lanterns appeared, when the words Life Theater reflected within Ning Nings eyes, she actually felt relief.
It really was there. It also looked the sa, no matter the two clusters of lanterns in front of the door, or the position of the poster, they were no different from what they were in 2017. If you had to point out a difference, maybe it was that the lanterns and the door looked a lot newer.
Sothing was missing.
Looking at the surroundings, right, the Doorman was not here.
Ning Yu Ren also looked at the surroundings. Seeing as there was no one, her vision fell upon the entrance which no one was guarding. Just as she was about to walk in, she was held back by Ning Ning who was behind her.
Dont sneak in. Ning Ning rembered the warning the Doorman gave her, she told Ning Yu Ren with a serious face, There will be very scary consequences if you sneak in.
Heh heh, not bad. The consequences of sneaking in are indeed very scary. A familiar male voice rang out from behind her, a burnt sll filled the air before he even arrived.
Ning Ning turned around, the Doorman had indeed returned.
The masks in the bag on his back clanked as he walked.
Ning Ning looked behind him, but she did not see the man in the smiling mask. She swallowed, wondering if he had escaped or had beco one of the masks inside the Doormans bag.
As he walked past Ning Ning, the Doorman took the mask out of Ning Nings hand. Back at the entrance, he tossed the bag on the ground and opened it up, revealing the male and female masks within. There were smiling and crying masks. The Doorman loosened his right hand and let the mask fall into the bag.
Afterwards, he slowly turned his head and looked at the two people in front of the door. Do you have tickets?
His expression was neither warm nor cold, he looked at people as if they were at on a hotplate, anyone he stared at would feel chills.
Ning Yu Ren answered with a stutter, I do, do.
One person per ticket, invalid upon admission. The Doorman took the ticket from Ning Yu Ren. Her palms were sweaty to the extent that the ticket was soaking wet. He tore the ticket and gave way to the entrance and said blandly, Go in.
Ning Yu Ren slightly puffed her chest. She took a look at the dark interior then turned back and looked at Ning Ning. In the end, she gritted her teeth, closed her eyes and rushed in.
The Doorman imdiately blocked off the entrance after Ning Yu Ren went in.
What about you? He looked at Ning Ning and asked, Are you going back?
He looked at Ning Ning the sa way he looked at Ning Yu Ren.
Ning Ning stared at him blankly for a mont. Just as she was about to ask, Do you not recognise
anymore?
A lazy voice rang out from behind her, asking, Where are you going back to?
Ning Ning turned back, Shi Zhong Tang walked towards heras he stepped into the moonlight.He looked like he was smiling yet not at the sa ti, his peach blossom eyes leisurely turned towards the side of the Doorman, then he twitched his eyebrow and whistled once.
Ning Ning followed the direction of what he was looking at, sweat was rolling down the back of her head.
Beside the Doorman was a poster.
It was a poster in an antique style. The (background) setting was the deep part of a cold palace, the weeds were dismal, there was an old concubine hung on a pagoda tree.
Title:
Starring: Chu Qiuer
And now,the naked eyecould see three words appearing in the space behind Chu QiuerNing Yu Ren.
The Doorman,
Ning Ning,
Shi Zhong Tang,
The air suddenly turned quiet.Oh Mama, how am I supposed to explain this supernatural phenonon to another person?
Ha, what just happened? Shi Zhong Tang looked like a curious cat, he walked in front of the poster without so much as a by your leave. He reached out and touched the nas on it and rubbed his fingers. There were no traces of new ink on them, thus he was even more excited. He turned around and asked Ning Ning, Did you see that?
I didnt see anything. Ning Ning lied blatantly.
An additional na suddenly appeared on this. Shi Zhong Tang said.
No, there were two nas all along. Ning Ning insisted.
Shi Zhong Tang stopped talking. He looked at Ning Ning as if he was smiling, her blood froze from being stared at. He then smiled happily and said, Alright, then. It was my mistake.
Then he turned around and walked towards the entrance of the theater.
