These cinemas belong to several large companies and are generally mature commercial cinemas, very similar to cinemas in China. The second are personal cinemas, or independent cinemas, spread across the country. Independent theaters are different from theaters in shopping malls. As early as the 1950s, Japan decentralized the right to import films. Some businessmen did not have the money to buy new films, so they bought some old films. Then they built some small screenings themselves, which was the earliest origin of independent cinemas. As time goes by, those that survived that era have become Japan's independent cinemas today. These independent cinemas basically do not show the latest movies. Instead, like a cafe, the owners think about the menu, purchase the movies, and run the business themselves. Their operators are called the "controllers" of the cinemas. The "personality of independent cinema" is also reflected here. What movies are shown in an independent cinema is entirely decided by the person in charge of the cinema.
Therefore, going to an independent cinema is a bit like going to a roadside stall. Although the equipment may not be very good, you can watch videos that are not available on the market. This alone is attractive enough. These independent film managers are like the head chef to a restaurant. Their management style gives the cinema a unique character. For example, the Jimbocho Theater only shows old black-and-white movies, the Ebisu Theater mainly shows French movies and other romantic films, and the Tachikawa Cinema has equipment that the landlords bought at great expense, and its audio and video quality far exceeds that of normal theaters. The same is true for the East Cinema. This cinema was purchased by Hira Kiyoshige's father six years ago and then donated to the Tokyo Film Academy. Managed by the Tokyo Film Academy. It mainly plays student films. Of course, starting in the past two years, thanks to Ping Qing Yinan's relationship, it has also been connected to theater movies. The reason is to allow students at the film school to learn better. Due to the low ticket price, students of Eastern Film Academy can buy tickets at half price. And occasionally I can see movies made by my classmates or seniors. Therefore, this independent cinema is quite popular and is also a very famous place in the Tokyo Film Academy. There are even many loyal users among the residents living around the cinema. However, this cinema also has a peculiarity, that is, it closes relatively early. Students close their dormitories at 10 pm, while the East Cinema outside the school basically closes at 9: pm. ~~~ 12 o'clock at night. A white Mercedes stopped in front of the East Cinema. After Ping Qingshan got out of the car, he opened the door and made a gesture of invitation in a very gentlemanly manner. "Come on, my lady."
“I know how to open the door myself.” Kasumigaoka Utaha got out of the car with a slightly blushing face, and then she also felt a little unbelievable. She didn't expect things to turn out like this, nor did she expect that Ping Qingshan would bring her here overnight after seeing her half of the movie ticket. Before coming here, Kasumigaoka Utaha was still a little angry. But when I really got to this place, all I felt was happiness. Moreover, for some reason, when she saw Ping Qingshan coming out from a bunch of flowers and still acting the same as always in front of her, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt a little touched. Chapter 82: Pillow Ping Qingshan had no idea what the girl was thinking. Just walking forward and talking. "Wait for me here. I'll go open the door of the cinema first." The East Cinema was donated to the school by Ping Qingshan’s father. When he was in school, Ping Qingshan was the manager. Now that he has graduated, Ping Qingshan is still the manager. So he still had the key to the cinema in his hand, and after saying hello to the security guard at the door, Ping Qingshan walked into the door. "I'll go with you!" Kasumigaoka Utaha followed in. "Oh~? You want to go with me?" Ping Qingshan glanced at her with a playful look in his eyes. Others might not know, but he knew very well that Kasumigaoka Utaha was not a very brave person. If you are willing to die, I will be willing to bury you. "Then let's go together." Ping Qingshan took out two flashlights from the cabinet beside the door. He often came here when he was in college, so he was very familiar with the structure of the cinema. Although it is an independent cinema, East Cinema is not small. Ping Qingshan just came to watch a movie, there was no need to light up the entire cinema, that would be stupid. Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't react at this time. She took the flashlight from Ping Qingshan's hand woodenly, then carefully held the corner of Ping Qingshan's clothes and asked, "How do you have the key to this movie?" "Because this cinema is owned by my family, of course I have the key. I checked on the way here, and the movie you want to see is at the end of the schedule. There are no more shows today, but it can still be shown to you here." Kasumigaoka Utaha really wanted to say that she only bought the ticket because of the name of the movie, and it didn’t matter what she watched as long as she was with Hei Kiyoshige. But in the end, when the words came to my lips, they turned into a word... ~~~ If there are students who have hung out in the school at midnight, they should understand a very interesting thing, that is, during the day and at night, even if it is the same place, it is two completely different worlds. Normally, under the lights, there is nothing special about the corridor of the cinema. But when all the lights were turned off, the only lights left in the dark corridor were the dim light from the emergency lights and the green LED lights on the emergency passage.
The green light with the words "Emergency Passage" seemed to have a power leak. It flickered on and off, and kept flashing, while making a "beep beep" sound. The corridor was very long and deep. One could see through countless open doors until it was shrouded in darkness and one could no longer see the end of the corridor. "Woo~~, why don't you go open the door first!" Kasumigaoka Utaha let out a cry and felt a little weak in the legs. "Really? You want to stay here alone?" Ping Qingshan smiled with ill intention. Kasumigaoka Utaha was timid, which was never shown in the animation, but he did encounter this once when he was in college. That time, Kasumigaoka Utaha left her laptop at school, and the girl's manuscript was on the computer, so she had to go back to the school library to get it. It was already late at night, and the girl took a taxi to Ping Qingshan's house, and then took Ping Qingshan to get the notebook. After that, Ping Qingshan roughly figured out the girl's courage. It is generally within the normal range, but in dark environments, she is much timid than normal girls. So he was certain that Kasumigaoka Utaha would not dare to stay here alone. really. The girl hesitated for a long time, but finally followed Ping Qingshan inside. The cinema was deserted at night, but Ping Qingshan had been here for a long time and was familiar with the place. Soon we arrived at the control room of a larger screening room. As the lights in the control room came on, Kasumigaoka Utaha was no longer so scared. Ping Qingshan skillfully found the projection key, inserted it into the host, and soon the projector bulb lit up. Apparently, the two couldn't watch the movie in the screening room. Ping Qingshan turned off the lights in the screening room and walked out of the empty and deep corridor again. This time they had to be quick because the movie had already started. "Hold my hand." Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded, and her soft little hands were held tightly by the man. The two of them walked through the corridor, came to the cinema, and sat down. The two people, breathing heavily, smiled at each other. Everything is fine. Except the movie wasn't very good. In Ping Qingshan's opinion, this movie called "Confessions" is a complete dud. No wonder the film was forced to be taken off the screen after only two weeks of release. Thanks to the boring plot, Ping Qingshan, who was originally somewhat energetic, gradually became drowsy. And next to him, holding Hira Kiyosugi's hand, Kasumigaoka Utaha was watching seriously. At the end of the play, the male and female protagonists resolved their misunderstandings. When the male protagonist confessed his love for the second time, Kasumigaoka Utaha's heart suddenly skipped a beat, thinking, isn't this the best opportunity?
Then she heard Ping Qingshan snoring. "Why did you fall asleep!!!" When she saw Hira Kiyosugi’s sleeping face, Kasumigaoka Utaha was a little speechless at first. But soon, the darkness around me seemed to have a physical form. Looking at the empty back seat, an inexplicable feeling of fear began to come over me. just now. In such a big cinema, besides Kasumigaoka Utaha herself, the only other person there was Hira Kiyoshige beside her. When both of them were awake, it was the most romantic moment for Kasumigaoka Utaha, but now Hira Kiyoshige is asleep!!! How can you sleep while watching a movie!!! What should I do if you fall asleep?! The story doesn’t end here. As the man and woman in the movie get back together, the movie comes to an end after a burst of warm music. As the screen goes out, everything falls into silence. Kasumigaoka Utaha could even clearly hear her own heartbeat and Hira Kiyosana's breathing. "Shan! Get up, go home and sleep if you want!" The girl is really scared now. But the problem was that the man, who had drunk a little bit of wine, was sleeping so soundly that he couldn't be woken up at all. at this time. Suddenly, there was a clicking sound in the projection room. That was the sound of the projector automatically shutting down after the show ended. But at this moment, it became the death warrant for Kasumigaoka Utaha. At this moment, Kasumigaoka Utaha is in a dilemma. She didn't dare to leave her seat to call for help, nor could she bear to shake Ping Qingshan who was already asleep. As time ticked by, Kasumigaoka Utaha directly pulled open the armrest between the two of them and squeezed into Ping Qingshan's arms like a squirrel. And Ping Qingshan was not shy about the sudden warmth in his arms, hugging it like a pillow. Then a pair of big hands began to grope up and down the pillow. After touching a soft spot, perhaps because he felt it felt great, Ping Qingshan subconsciously pinched it twice. "Hmm~~Ah~~" Kasumigaoka Utaha spoke subconsciously, her beautiful face flushed as the sun. Feeling the strange numbness in her body, the girl looked up at Ping Qingshan who had his eyes closed. An idea popped into my mind.
This guy, isn't he pretending to be asleep?! Chapter 83: Strange Scout Outside Tokyo Film and Television Academy.
