Invade the World Chapter 201

  Chapter 201 A corner of the 90s style

   "You, what are you doing?"

  Zhu Qingyue suffers from pain, frowning her eyebrows unconsciously.

   "Of course it took you away."

  The girl shook her arm, but found that the boy was holding it tightly and couldn't get rid of it at all. She had no choice but to reply in a low voice:

   "What is this again?"

   "Don't understand? Of course it dragged you out of the house."

  Xu Xiangyang smiled.

  "This afternoon, didn't you say that you would not go out with us? When I heard it, I was really taken aback."

"Ok."

  "How do you plan to spend your vacation? You can't stay at home all day long. As you said, it's rare to have a relaxing summer vacation. It's a shame not to do anything."

"…Leave me alone."

The squad leader snorted softly.

   "You only need to take care of your girlfriend, and you don't need to worry about other things."

   "That won't work, we are friends, we can't leave you alone."

  Xu Xiangyang put his hand on his mouth and coughed gently:

   "So, I was thinking, should I take you out at this time? When Xingjie and I are gone, will you be the only one left? You will be lonely alone, right?"

  Zhu Qingyue fixedly looked at him without answering.

  The long silence, and the inexplicable and inexplicable emotional color reflected in the pair of clear pupils, made him uneasy.

  The composure and laughing expression on Xu Xiangyang's face (pretended) slowly disappeared, and he began to feel uneasy and added cautiously:

   "If I call in advance, I don't think you will agree to it. Only by seeing Qingyue with your own eyes like this can I have a chance to drag you out of the house... I think so."

  "You don't have to force yourself to pretend that you are not good at it, Xiangyang." She sighed softly, "Don't you feel embarrassed?"

   "...I didn't."

  Xu Xiangyang's face flushed, but he still didn't want to admit it.

  Ignoring someone's hard lips, the squad leader said again.

   "Didn't I say that I still have to take care of my mother?"

   "Time is too late."

  Xu Xiangyang answered seriously. He certainly did not fail to consider this issue.

   "When you studied at my home some time ago, the last time you went back was 9:30 in the evening. I remember it clearly. So, we still have time for both of us, right?"

  The girl was silent again.

   "...you let go of your hand first."

  Xu Xiangyang did as he said.

  Zhu Qingyue stood in front of the door, tidying up her collar with her free hands. Then she raised her head and asked softly.

   "And then? Where are you going to take me?"

   "Well this."

  Xu Xiangyang thought for a while.

   "I haven't figured it out yet, let's go now."

   "Really irresponsible."

  Sir, the squad leader said, and he took a half step backward, as if he was about to retreat home and close the door.

  This is not enough.

  Up to now, I can't help myself to shrink back!

   "Don't even want to go!"

  At the same time he called out, he gritted his teeth, grabbed the girl's hand again and dragged her to his side, and then simply pushed the door in with the other hand!

"boom!"

  Close the door.

  Xu Xiangyang and Zhu Qingyue were both locked outside the door.

When the sound of the door colliding with the wall sounded, Xu Xiangyang shrank his neck subconsciously. With the cold wind on the back of his spine, his whole body was in a cold sweat. The emotions from the hot blood just now disappeared without a trace. .

  ... Am I too impulsive?

  He didn't even dare to look at the expressions of the girls around him.

  Compulsion is forced, and embarrassment is embarrassing. He is still very afraid that the squad leader will be angry with him. Even if he tries to pretend to be indifferent, he will inevitably worry.

  Who knows, when he plucked up the courage to observe her, he found that the emotions of the girl who was locked out did not fluctuate much, but a smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.

  She shook her head and complained a little helplessly:

   "You are so impatient, you see, I didn't even have time to change my clothes."

   "It's okay, you look good like this... You always look good, so don't worry about this problem."

  Xu Xiangyang wiped the sweat from his forehead, and quickly replied like a blessing.

   "What if I didn't leave the key with me?"

   "Isn't your mother still at home?"

  "She might not have the Xianxin to help me open the door. Then I can only wander on the streets."

   "No, my door is always open, you are welcome to come as a guest; you can also call the security guard, I asked when I came, they can help contact the locksmith."

   "Even so, you are still causing me trouble."

   "I just want to trouble you."

  "Is this what a friend should say?" Zhu Qingyue chuckled, "I haven't found out before, you are such a headstrong character."

   "Qingyue, I know that you have to take care of your mother. If you are an ordinary friend, you should be considerate at this time. It is impossible to invite you by force like this. But..."

  Xu Xiangyang looked directly into the opponent's eyes.

  "We are not'ordinary' friends. I can't ignore you. The summer vacation is about to begin. Even if you don't want to go with us, at least stay with us for a while, right?"

  Zhu Qingyue stopped talking.

  After a while, she pulled Xu Xiangyang's sleeve and pointed at her feet.

   "Look, I am still wearing slippers."

  Xu Xiangyang followed the direction of her fingers. There were two ear ornaments on the pink slippers. The front part of the slippers was like a rabbit head, wrapping the girl's slender feet in cotton socks, which looked quite cute.

  Unexpectedly, the squad leader still has the feelings of a girl...

  Xu Xiangyang's mouth raised slightly and replied:

   "Then look for a destination where walking less often, let's go!"

  While he was speaking, he had already taken a step forward, while observing Zhu Qingyue's movements from the corner of his eye.

  When he saw the girl behind him taking the initiative to take a step, the big stone in his heart finally fell, knowing that the purpose of this trip had been achieved.

   "I really like this pair of rabbit slippers. If they get dirty, they can only be thrown away..."

  The squad leader followed him step by step, while grumbling and complaining.

   "Then buy a new slippers on the way back. I will treat you this time."

   "It won't work if it's not a rabbit."

   "Fine, even if I go through the whole Jinjiang City, I will bring you a pair of rabbit slippers!"

  The two of them left the community and got on the bus. There is no fun place near the outskirts of the city, so the destination must be the old city that they are familiar with.

   "Where are we going?"

  The girl admired the night view of the city quickly passing by outside the window for a while, turned her head and asked.

   "Are there any places you want to go?"

"Casual."

   is here, Xu Xiangyang thought, this is the most difficult answer in the world.

  Fortunately, he already has an idea.

   "If you have no objection, I am going to take you to a good place near my house."

  "This time you dragged me out of the house. If the place is not novel or interesting enough, I will be angry."

did you see it? This is the true meaning of "random" in a girl's mouth.

   "Don't worry, that place is definitely..."

   "Are you planning to invite me to the movies?"

  The squad leader interrupted his conversation.

  Xu Xiangyang turned his head to look at her with horror.

   "You, how do you know?"

   Even if I knew that Zhu Qingyue was a master at guessing people's hearts and making use of them, it was a bit scary to be seen through my heart without any hint like this.

  The point is that Xu Xiangyang just had this idea, and it was a completely meaningless idea that emerged from his mind...

  The superpower of the squad leader is really not a mind-reading technique?

   "Xiang Yang, you seem to like to pull others to watch discs together."

  Zhu Qingyue said with a smile.

   "So I was thinking that your extracurricular hobbies should mainly be reading books and watching movies."

   hit the bullseye.

"So, apart from the commercial streets and food markets where you buy daily necessities, the only entertainment places you usually go to when you go out are only these options: libraries, bookstores, second-hand book stalls, video stores for renting discs, and movie theaters. How is it, I guessed it right?"

   "Yes, yes, that's true."

  Xu Xiangyang sighed.

  "But the place I go to the movies most often, and my destination this time, is not exactly a movie theater."

  The two got off the train near the old town. Xu Xiangyang took her to the destination in the cobweb-like complex alleys.

  At this time, the lights were on, and the night fell, and the shops on both sides of the street ushered in the busiest time of the day. Residents and passers-by poured in, and they only felt completely overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of people.

   is surrounded by a boiling ocean, surrounded by light bands intertwined with gorgeous neon lights.

  The lamppost on the side of the broad main road lights up in deep yellow at the same time, and falls on the pedestrians to form a hazy aperture after another.

  "This place...isn't it a game room?"

  Zhu Qingyue raised her head and looked at the slightly old sign which was covered with stains.

  A few young people squatted or stood at the door of this store, all there vomiting clouds, and they were still chatting excitedly about unintelligible topics.

  She listened to her for a while, as if she was discussing issues such as moves and the strength of the characters in the game.

  Xu Xiangyang smiled mysteriously at the girl, did not answer, just crossed the threshold on his own.

  She followed him into the door, and a rush of heat suddenly rushed toward her face.

  The space inside the door is not narrow, but it is crowded with people. In addition, it is summer, and the hot and humid air is particularly dull, and the level of noisy and noisy is no less than that of the busy streets outside.

The   machine hall is dominated by young men. There are people lined up behind each game console, crowding the aisles and making it difficult to see the screen.

  If you want to go inside, you have to walk sideways from them.

  The damp, stagnant air in the room was more mixed with wisps of smoke and other unpleasant smells. Such a harsh environment made Zhu Qingyue, who hadn't cared, frowned unconsciously.

  —He... Isn't he planning to bring himself to play video games?

   Novelty is novel enough, but this kind of environment simply can't hold people. She is not a cleanliness addiction, it is true that this place is not suitable for any girl who loves cleanliness.

  Xu Xiangyang still did not speak, he just reached out his hand and grabbed her wrist, the two walked through the crowd together, through the pool table behind, and then opened the plastic curtain in the middle of the door wall—

  Behind the game machine room and the pool table, there is a hole in the sky:

A little rudimentary desk that looks like a ticket office, there is no one inside; there is a grandma who buys tea next to it, sitting there taking a nap, and a few tables around are biting their ears and whispering, you Nong my Nong young couple.

  There is a wooden board standing next to the table, on which the poster of the popular Fengyue movie is pasted decades ago. A couple of men and women are embracing passionately on the poster.

There are also several small blackboards hanging beside the ticket window, on which are written in chalk "good film series, there are private rooms", "provide melon seeds, drinks, instant noodles, bread", "admission for two yuan during the day", etc. Typeface.

  Zhu Qingyue suddenly.

  Seeing the scene here, even if she has never been here before, she can guess that this place is a video studio.

For most people, the so-called video room is actually a smaller movie theater, but because the price is low, a set of equipment can be prepared and a few pirated discs can be opened. So for a period of time, the motherland Numerous video studios have sprung up in the north and south.

  There are quite a few screening halls that also serve as accommodation. Some people who can't afford to live in a decent hotel will choose to watch the night show, and spend a few dollars to spend a whole night.

However, the video hall really flourished in the last ten years. People of Xu Xiangyang and Zhu Qingyue's age happened to have a tail. When they were young, they went to the streets with the adults, or secretly followed the neighbor's elder brother. If you sneak out, you may still have a chance to see this part of the "Prosperity of Video Studio" that records the youth of countless people.

  “It's already a downturn now. I heard it happened in the last few years.”

  Xu Xiangyang has loved to drill into the projection hall since he was a child, and at this time he was quite emotional.

"The business of those decent people has been robbed of movie theaters with better environments. Now every household has VCDs, and the number of people who come to the video hall is getting scarce. Therefore, most of the front space has to be converted into a game hall. And the billiard room."

"However, the boss here is still a bit sophisticated. The other video studios are showing films from a long time ago, and some people simply change their names and trick people into watching old movies. "Titanic" is considered new. Yes, I have watched it seven or eight times! But this place is different. The boss has some precious videos that are not available on the market, and he can also get the latest discs in the first time. As long as I am like this Once the old customer said, he was willing to show it to everyone..."

   Xu Xiangyang's endless talk was not over yet, he suddenly realized that the girl beside him had disappeared.

  He turned his head and saw that Zhu Qingyue walked to the small blackboard. She put her hands on her knees, leaned over and looked attentively, while still muttering words.

  Xu Xiangyang walked to the squad leader and heard the girl recite the movie names one by one.

  "..."Voyeur Innocence", "Unstoppable Madness", "X Girl Temptation", "Big X Legend", "X Things X Recorded X Girl"..."

   Only halfway through hearing, the cold sweat on his forehead has been dripping.

  The squad leader turned his head, his face looked like a smile but not a smile.

   "Xiang Yang, what you said about the'precious videos collected by the boss', did you mean these?"
