    At this moment outside the Flytime Cinema, the space was filled with a very large crowd—much larger than before.Roderick thought that exiting the hall would mean stepping into freedom for him. Little did he know that the crowd waiting outside was far beyond what he could have imagined.Things were more manageable when he was inside the hall because the influential people approaching him there were reasonable.Out here, it was the opposite.
