My Cell Prison

Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Wang Po

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
While he was alive, Han Dong was not only a bookworm and science researcher, but he also had his own hobbies, only less time was spent on them.

If he was waiting for a long experimental period, Han Dong would watch movies in the lab to pass the time.

Movies itself is an art. To Han Dong, some movies are quite profound, and watching them seriously helps his thinking…

Sci-fi movies were Han Dong’s favourite, while he would rarely watch horror movies.

It wasn’t out of fear, but a lack of interest in ghost-type creatures that couldn’t be directly explained by science.

He believed that these were just products of people combining their fears with reality… The value of watching them was minimal.

And the words “domestic horror film” were synonymous with money-grabbing bad films in Han Dong’s impression.

Jiuzhou movie, ‘Being Possessed’.

Han Dong vaguely remembers that when he posted movie reviews on the website, he saw a brief introduction and review about ‘Being Possessed’.

[A horror film with a low cost of seventy thousand by a novice director even included the twenty thousand medical expenses for the main actor’s injury during filming… The actual film outperformed domestic thrillers that are commonly millions or tens of millions, and can even compete with horror films from other countries.

The film won many awards, but ran into problems on the eve of its premiere. I wonder if the movie team was really ‘possessed’.]

At that time, Han Dong was very curious, trying to search for resources, but found that there were very few resources about ‘Being Possessed’ online, it was even harder to find than porn.

In the process of finding resources, Han Dong found that the expected ‘Being Possessed’ had been withdrawn… It seemed to be related to some strange incidents.

The largest incident happened at an international film festival in Hong Kong.

A female audience started running around the cinema due to being stimulated, causing some mental issues.

Han Dong believed that this kind of pseudo-documentary film would resonate to a certain extent with the audience. It was likely that this woman had seen a similar scene as a child, which is why she was fully immersed in the film and fell into a state of ‘panic’.

Because he couldn’t find the movie resources at the time, and the interval between experiments came, which required that Han Dong immediately separate the bacterial colony, he forgot about the movie later.

“What a pity! If I had watched it, the survival rate would have greatly increased.

I just remember that the movie was shot in a fake documentary style… The story was about two students going to the countryside to shoot a documentary on fortune-telling, who encountered weird incidents during the filming.

As for the other details, I don’t know.

For events related to evil spirits… It seems that we will actually encounter unexplainable spirits on the way.

If we can survive for three days, we will become the ‘Returners’ that the Knights’ Regiment was talking about.

Based on the information we have so far, the mortality rate is extremely high. If we make the wrong decision, we might end up on a road of no return.

We should take this seriously and cherish this life.”

It would be a lie to say I wasn’t nervous.

Any life form, when facing an unknown object that cannot be fought against, the primitive emotion known as fear would gush out… it’s just that different people have different resistance and reactions to fear.

Having experienced death once, Han Dong was able to greatly suppress his inner fear.

…….

A team of six.

Aside from their change of outfits, each member carries a handheld camera, student ID and 500 yuan in cash.

Of course, everyone also has a timer device on their wrist set to 72 hours, exactly three days.

Moving together, they soon arrived at a courtyard, where many simple farmers were gathered around.

“Look, even foreigners have come to get their fortunes told by Wang Po… This really gives our village some face.”

Han Dong asked some questions in Mandarin with a Western accent.

He found out that this was Wang Po’s place and all these people were waiting in line to have their fortunes read… However, Wang Po was not home, but had gone to a village on the East side to attend to a home call.

After learning this information, everyone quickly rushed to the eastern Li Dam Village, and found the house where Wang Po was.

At this point, the ceremony was at its final stage.

A strange red paper man was placed at the door. Wang Po was stirring talisman water in a bowl with her fingers and let a sickly-looking woman drink it.

Han Dong quietly said to the captain, “Edward, we have half an hour left to establish a relationship with Wang Po.

Out of respect, let’s wait until the ceremony is over before we make contact with her… I need to go to the restroom, I’ll be right back.”

“Okay, you go ahead.”

There were many public restrooms in the village.

Of course, Han Dong’s goal was not to go to the restroom, but to use the time before the official start of the event to learn about an extremely important matter related to himself.

Han Dong went to a small shop and confirmed the current time through a calendar – November 5, 2015.

“Hello, how do you charge for using the public phone?”

“… Just call, it’s free.” The shopkeeper had never encountered a foreigner in the countryside before, a few cents didn’t matter.

“Thank you.”

“Your Mandarin is even more standard than ours, impressive.”

Han Dong smiled politely out of courtesy and picked up the phone.

Chirp~~~!

Who knew, just as the handset was near his ear, immediately a sharp sound let out a sharp sound that gave Han Dong a splitting headache.

[No contact with the outside world, directly or indirectly through communication devices, is allowed in the scene of the event.]

“You should have told me earlier…” Han Dong was helpless.

In fact, he wanted to use the phone to find a loophole in the system.

He wanted to call his friends from before his death to confirm whether the current movie world was the same as his previous world. Even if they were different… Han Dong also intended to get some horror movie resources from the outside world.

Even if they can’t be used for this event, they will definitely be useful in the future.

Seeing that this path to the outside world had been blocked, Han Dong could only take advantage of the 500 yuan given by the system and purchased some things he might use from the grocery store, all packed in a backpack.

Just then, the ritual ended.

Wang Po and her husband bid farewell to the family who had successfully ‘exorcised the spirits’.

“Hello, Wang Po, we are…”

Handing over their student IDs and introducing themselves.

A group of international students traveling thousands of miles to the countryside to shoot a documentary, of course they couldn’t be turned away… Naturally, Wang Po also had some selfish motives. If she could become famous through the documentary, business would certainly be better in the future.

Therefore, Wang Po very gladly agreed to the six people’s requests for interviews and follow-up shots.

At this moment, the system’s voice rang out again.

“You have established a correct relationship with the key person, ‘Wang Po’, please follow ‘Wang Po’ on a car ride to the location where the event will take place.”
