Questions about the midnight bell

●About some knowledge

1. The well symbolizes the female birth canal, the bottom of the well is the uterus, and the water in the well is amniotic fluid. Sadako climbed out of the well, implying her strong desire to be reincarnated. Of course, you need a father to give birth to a child, so the director arranged for a man to enter the well high up a mountain. The plot of Sadako's reincarnation was included in "Reappearance of the Evil Bell". It turned out that she couldn't climb out. She only climbed to the mouth of the well and couldn't get out. However, she used her mind to mislead the hero and heroine, making them think that rescuing her from the well would eliminate the curse. In fact, she waited until the hero and heroine sealed the hole. After the well was opened and the so-called removal of the curse was performed, the seal on the evil spirit was actually removed and she was released from the well, so she was able to climb out of the well in the end, so the man died. Only then did they suddenly realize that the women seemed to understand something. They understood that they had been deceived, and what they were doing was not redemption, but releasing evil spirits! ! ! !

2. "Water is of great significance in Japanese ghost movies. Because Japan is an island country and is often plagued by water disasters, water is regarded as a symbol of death, so they are also full of fear of water. In In this film, water becomes a symbol of Samara's evil spirit, because she was in the water at the bottom of the well until the end of her life" (I didn't expect water to have such a profound meaning to the Japanese)

3. RING virus: Bell virus, a kind of ring virus. It is composed of Sadako's genetic genes and smallpox virus. Sadako's trump card

4. When the virus mutates, about 50% of the ring virus will turn into a flagellum coronavirus, and then attack the brain or uterus, what are the consequences... I don’t need to say it

5. The last two lines on page 37 of Takayama Ryuji’s paper during his lifetime were crossed out and underlined in the upper left It was this arrow that made Takano Mai find the videotape without any objection - whether it was a conspiracy or a coincidence, you can think for yourself

6. The sealed space in the well, water, And the time of death is Professor Sugiura Tetsuzo's theory of the formation of the curse. Sadako and Toyama once talked about the video tape. When Dr. Ikuma died, he taught Sadako to learn about genetics and used super powers to create a video tape for her. The elephant belt became possible, Sadako evolved in the well, and the video tape unexpectedly mutated, giving Sadako a complete body, just like Saroo, and poor Ando became Sadako's experiment, and Having sex with a person who has been dead for 25 years is both exciting and terrifying. In the end, Ando betrayed humanity for his dead son. What a contradiction!

7. Sadako once mentioned to Toyama that Okubo told her that a certain tape contained a woman’s screams and that there was a shrine in the corner of the recording studio. But Okubo denied it. Denial. There is only one reasonable explanation: it is Sadako's precognitive ability. The woman's cry is actually Sadako's own, and the umbilical cord in the shrine means fertility and regeneration. Sadako also had a similar dream. , and Sadako finally obtained a complete body that can replicate itself. In short, all this is quite strange. As Ryuji said, this is an unprecedented conspiracy.

●Errors and omissions:

Time confusion

The book emphasizes many times that the speed of time in the "ring" is six times that of the real world, and half a year in the "ring" is equivalent to one month in the real world; But it is mentioned many times that the few months that Takayama Ryuji died in the "ring" are equivalent to the twenty years that Futami Kaoru grew up in the real world; I am afraid the author cannot tell whether it is right or wrong.

Aai's explanation

Shortly after Ryuuji's death, the Ring was stopped due to two main reasons: the cancer of the Ring and the lack of funds in the real world. At this time, A Xin was born in the real world. It was not until A Xin reached the age of twenty that Dr. Elliott reopened the ring world in order to solve the mystery of the metastatic human cancer virus. The doctor then resurrected Xin in the ring as Ryuji. Therefore, for nearly twenty years, the ring world has been in a static state.
