Chapter 389 - Feel the Pain
The audience thought that this failed expulsion would be an opportunity for Mrs. An to accept Hachi, and that the knot in her heart was opening up a little bit, but they didn't realize that Mrs. An just couldn't bear to expel Hachi herself, but she still put pressure on Professor An.
"I've had enough! You'll send him away tomorrow!"
"Tomorrow?"
"You've been saying that for more than half a month!"
"I'm sorry."
Professor An said softly after the silence.
He seemed to have a decision in his mind.
At this moment, the camera naturally switched to Hachi's point of view.
As if realizing something, Hachi slowly stopped his tail wagging as he looked at Professor An's apologetic figure through the gap in the wooden board, in the black and white gray world.
"No!"
"Don't chase it away."
"It is your dog."
"It has identified itself with its owner."
An audience member murmured, with a hint of pleading in her voice.
Already some of the more emotional women in the audience were in tears, gazing sympathetically at Hachi in the camera.
"......"
Yang An, who had previously boasted a high tear point, bit his lip, and his nose began to turn sour.
He quietly looked at Ye Hongyu beside him.
Ye Hongyu was in the same state as in the opening of the movie, her face without any unnecessary expressions, as she did in every movie she watched - she was in the same state as in the opening of the movie.
The ultimate in calmness and sanity.
As if reminded, Yang An sniffles, suppressing some of his own stupid emotions.
The big screen.
It was dark again.
As he had done for the past few days, Professor An quietly woke up after his wife fell asleep and brought Hachi to the study.
He took out the canned dog food he had bought, dog snacks, and gave it to Hachi.
Before, he wouldn't let Hachi eat too many snacks because he didn't think it was a good habit to be picky, but today, he took out all the canned food and snacks in one go.
"You can eat as much as you like today."
Professor An smiled at Hachi, but his smile was a little stiff.
Little Hachi, who was usually very excited about the snacks, stared at Professor An without moving, with a certain stubbornness and obstinacy.
It didn't move a single bite of the canned snack.
It was as if none of these things existed.
Professor An's eyes were a little moist, and he picked up Hachi, patted it gently on the back, and whispered, "Good boy, good boy ......".
Little Hachi does not make any sound.
In the past nights, when Professor An carried it into the study secretly, he always had to coax it to be quiet to prevent the excited Xiaohachi from waking up Mrs. An. But tonight Xiaohachi was exceptionally sensible, he didn't even whimper.
But tonight, Hachi was exceptionally sensible; he did not even whimper in distress and lay silently in Professor An's arms.
At this time, the camera panned out.
The camera shifts slightly.
Outside the study, Mrs. An, in her pajamas, stared at her husband, not knowing how long she had been standing in place before quietly turning back to the bedroom.
Perhaps there were many people who were particularly tired this night.
The next day, when Professor An awoke, the sun was already rising high.
His wife, who was by his side, was long gone.
Prof. An suddenly seemed to remember that the dog was still in the study, and he patted his head in frustration.
However, when Professor An arrived at the study, he was stunned by the scene before him.
Mrs. An was stroking Hachi's head, watching tenderly as Hachi ate the snack that he had been reluctant to eat last night.
Before she could say anything, the home phone rang.
Mrs. An got up, answered the phone, and there was a kind voice: "Hello, I heard that there is a dog in your family who is looking for an owner, I would like to adopt it, I like dogs very much ......".
"I'm sorry."
The sun soothed the town, and the old, quiet happiness flowed slowly.
Mrs. An gazed at the apprehensive Professor An, smiled, and said to the caller, "Hachi already has an owner."
Thud.
As if it understood, Hachi suddenly stopped eating the snack and brought it to Mrs. An's feet with a heel-shaped snack in his mouth.
"Hachi, she doesn't eat this."
Professor An lost his smile, his body seemed to relax for a moment, and the moment of relief was as bright as the sunshine outside the house.
"Pounce."
Hachi jumped up excitedly, knocking over a chair, and Mrs. An's expression instantly filled with anger: "Hachi, you get out of here!"
"Woof!"
Hachi screamed at her and ran away with the snack in his mouth.
Mrs. An and Professor An looked at each other and suddenly burst out laughing.
"Don't ever get up in the middle of the night again." After laughing for a while, Mrs. An warned, "It's your own study anyway, and you're free to give it to whomever you want."
"You know that?"
"I already knew that."
The woman unravels the knot, but the audience can't guess whether she does it out of love for her husband or out of the same reluctance she feels inside for Hachi.
Perhaps, it was both.
An audience member in the front started wiping tears and trying to find the paper, but found it right next to the seat.
Someone finally understood why there was paper here.
It's just that every seat had paper in it, and this formation was a bit too much.
"That's nice."
Yang An looked at Ye Hong Yue, whose expression seemed to be unchanging, and said inwardly.
He didn't see that Ye Hongyu lightly raised her lower eyebrows.
The latter shot belonged entirely to Hachi ......
Little Hachi grew up a little bit.
After she grows up, Hachi is as cute as ever, and even more spiritual.
In these delicate and warm shots, the most simple and true emotions between humans and animals are unreservedly displayed.
As Hachi grows up, the film does not even rely on human language to communicate, but only on gestures and movements to express emotions, allowing the audience to feel the warmth between humans and dogs.
The camera is more and more frequently shot in low camera position.
Black White Grey.
The film takes us through Hachi's eyes as we look at the world around us.
The viewer's heart is already filled with warm emotions as Hachi and Professor An spend time together on a daily basis.
Becoming the beloved dog of Professor An's family, the familiarity and understanding grows little by little.
Whenever the professor had to take a train to go to school, Xiaoba always followed him, watched him get on the train, and spent the whole day squatting on the flower pond across the train station by herself.
At first, Prof. An often chased it away to make it go home.
Later the professor found that Xiaohachi was obsessed with the train station, and would not stop until he came out again, so the professor had to let it go and wait.
As time went by, even the man selling omelets in the train station and the lady at the newsstand got to know this dog who would take the professor to work every day and then wait for him to come home....
Hachi is very loyal.
Everyone loved it, and some people would even give it food, and every now and then, Hachi would use it as a way to show his appreciation.
Yang An was also particularly fond of Hachi.
In front of the big screen, the corner of Yang An's mouth curled up as he watched Xiaoba dig a hole under the fence to take the professor to work, and his eyes moved slightly as he wagged his tail excitedly and rushed up after the professor left for work. ......
People and dogs, they have an attachment to each other.
At this point, half of the movie is already over, and we don't know what will happen next, but we won't be bored because the interaction and growth between humans and dogs is too tame, which is a feeling that those special effects blockbusters can't bring.
It's like suddenly feeling the charm of a light meal when you're tired of eating big fish and big meat.
Only a few people know that this is an elaborate trap of warmth created by the movie.
Those who have the most to say about this are Yi Chenggong, who sits in the ninth row, and those who have seen the movie once.
"Prepare to feel the pain. ......"
Lao Zhou said in his mind, looking at a female audience member in the front row.
This woman was a representative of a medium-sized cinema line, and she was raising her head slightly, as if she had eaten a sweet ice cream in summer, but her face was filled with warm happiness. ......
Old Zhou's eyes swept over the others again.
All of them, oblivious to themselves, were like that.
