Mushui City, Lingxiao Pavilion.

Mingshi and Shuishan met at the door. Mingshi was holding two peculiarly designed paper bags, and Shuishan was also holding a bag of cakes wrapped in oil paper. Their eyes paused on each other's hands, and without asking any questions, they walked towards the pavilion owner's residence together.

The old pavilion owner was enjoying the cool air under the tree in the yard, and Jinlu and Qiwu were there too.

The three of them were all martial artists, and when they heard the footsteps, they turned around and saw Mingshi and Shuishan, and their faces instantly showed joy.

Qiwu greeted them, "You two are back at the right time. The Mid-Autumn Festival gift that Dieqi sent back from Liangjing has just arrived. We were just about to open it, come and see what's new!"

Mingshi and Shuishan looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.

The old pavilion master raised his hand, calmed down the excited Jin Lu and Qi Wu, and asked about their situation first.

Ming Shi and Shui Shan went out this time to gather information, but Ming Shi went to the south and Shui Shan went to the north.

They did not go out together, but happened to come back together.

The mission was relatively smooth, nothing went wrong on the way, and the news was already on the way to Beijing.

Ling Xiao Pavilion has been cooperating with the nobles in Liangjing City for many years. Compared with murder and buying, they usually collect intelligence everywhere.

After the two reported the mission, Jin Lu immediately called them over to open the Mid-Autumn Festival gift sent back by Die Qi.

The gift was prepared by the three decimals together, but Die Qi sent someone to send it back to Mu Shui City, and the letter was also written by Die Qi.

It was a big box. When it was delivered, Jinlu and Qiwu were stunned.

But the material of the box was quite strange. It was not made of wood. It looked like a box made of paper, but it was very hard.

Jinlu used a dagger to cut open the box and took out five boxes of mooncakes, a bottle of hand sanitizer, five bars of soap, and a box of tissues.

When Mingshi saw the hand sanitizer and tissues, doubts emerged in her eyes.

Qiwu touched here and looked there, and was amazed at everything. "Ashi, do you think there's anything wrong?"

Mingshi picked up the paper bag she brought, took out a box of mooncakes and a pack of tissues, and looked slightly embarrassed. "I was coming back from Jiangnan, and I met a merchant selling goods at the dock. The merchant said that half of the goods on the ship were new things shipped from Beijing. I saw that I had never seen them before, so I bought some."

These things were not cheap, but they were very popular.

Mingshi originally planned to buy hand sanitizer, but she didn't have enough money on her at the time, so she bought mooncakes and tissues first, and then went to the silver shop to withdraw money. It only took half an hour, and when she came back, she had no money. She

was a little depressed at the time, but she was relieved soon. Thinking that Dieqi, Kuba and the others in the attic had never seen these things, they never thought they would send back a box.

Qiwu and Jinlu compared the gifts brought back by Mingshi and Dieqi, and confirmed that they were the same things, the only difference was that Mingshi bought loose goods, while Dieqi sent back whole boxes, with more quantity and more variety.

Qi Wu said, "What a coincidence! Ah Shi actually bought the goods in the shop of Ku Ba's mission target in Jiangnan."

Jin Lu couldn't wait to open the mooncake gift boxes. He opened all five boxes in a row and gave one to each person, not forgetting to tease, "At least it shows that the merchant didn't lie. These things are indeed fresh things from Kyoto."

Shui Shan leaned next to the old pavilion master and looked at the letter sent back by Die Qi. There were also several photos attached to the letter.

Shui Shan couldn't help but flip through them. "What is this? It looks like a portrait, but it's so clear. Why is Senior Brother Jiu with them?"

Xiao Shuzi was all orphans picked up by the old pavilion master. He also taught martial arts to them. They could be called brothers.

At first, their names were all single words, and later the old pavilion master added numbers to each person's name according to their strength, with the strongest person having the highest number.

Xiao Jiu has never lost since his first competition with his junior brothers and sisters.

After five years, the ranking of the junior brothers' strength has remained almost unchanged, and their names have also become fixed.

Among all his fellow students, Ming Shi admires Xiao Jiu the most. Upon hearing this, he immediately came over, and his eyes lit up when he saw Xiao Jiu wearing sunglasses in the photo, "It's really Senior Brother Nine. Why isn't he wearing a black veil? What's on his eyes?"

Jin Lu and Qi Wu were eating mooncakes with their heads down, and they paused upon hearing this. They wanted to look at the photo, but they couldn't let go of the mooncakes in their hands.

Jin Lu ate a mooncake in two or three bites, his cheeks puffed up, "This mooncake is really delicious, it's worthy of being a high-end product from Kyoto!"

Die Qi once again explained the basic situation of the cinema in the letter. At present, she, Ku Ba and Xiao Jiu are all working in the cinema. Every day, there are some new and strange things, and there are too many things to investigate, so they can't come back in a short time.

Finally, he explained in detail the use of hand sanitizer, soap, and paper towels, and explained that the mooncakes must be eaten as soon as possible and not left expired.

After reading the letter, Jin Lu and Qi Wu exchanged glances and understood each other.

Qiwu was the first to speak: "It seems that the mission in Kyoto is really difficult, and three people may not be enough."

Jinlu crossed his arms, frowned, and nodded repeatedly, "I think we need to send more people to complete the mission as soon as possible. Since Mingshi and Shuishan are back, it's a good opportunity for you to learn to deal with the miscellaneous things in the pavilion, just as an experience."

Qiwu agreed: "Jinlu and I will work hard and go to Liangjing to help Kuba complete the mission."

Without waiting for Mingshi and Shuishan to react, Jinlu and Qiwu quickly picked up a few things of interest on the table, said hello to the old pavilion owner, and disappeared together.

Mingshi & Shuishan: "..."

The old pavilion owner: "..."

This pavilion can't keep anyone.

Liangjing, Song'an Street.

In the morning, the entrance of the cinema was full of carriages. Since the cinema released the trailer of the new film "Want to See You" two days ago, the people of Dawu Dynasty have been looking forward to it.

After this period of operation, the cinema actually has quite a lot of fans. Every time a new film is released, they are looking forward to it, and they try every means to grab the premiere seats to know the plot as soon as possible.

This time, the trailer of "Want to See You" reveals a lot of information.

The characters in the film are dressed more like the store owner than the "Sea Train Serial Murder Case" which was released not long ago. The houses, certain tools, and character relationships in the background all hint that this seems to be the world behind the cinema.

Whether it is a fan who is simply obsessed with movies or someone with other intentions, they all came to the cinema early on this day and lined up to buy tickets.

The carriage of Jinghongguan stopped at the end. Chen Lianlian opened the curtain and saw that the traffic ahead was extremely congested. Most of the carriages were from the rich and powerful and wealthy businessmen. There was no way to clear the traffic for a while. He waited patiently for a quarter of an hour, but the traffic did not move forward much.

She simply got off the car and asked Xiaotao to call the people behind and asked them to walk over together.

The carriage was left where it was. Chen Lianlian, Xu Niangzi, Xiaotao, and six or seven girls from Jinghong Pavilion walked all the way to the cinema, attracting countless eyes.

The entrance of the cinema was even more crowded, but with two guards, Kuba and Xiaojiu, no one dared to cut in line and cause trouble.

When Chen Lianlian and her group came in, Hongyu led the way and led them to the private room.

They arrived late, and the other private rooms were full. They could hear the sound coming from when they passed by, and the girls couldn't help but quicken their pace, wanting to watch the movie as soon as possible.

Originally, they planned to choose one to watch between "Falling Flowers Meet You Again" and "The Sea Train Serial Murder Case". It happened that "Want to See You" was just released, and many people were waiting to see the new movie, so the girls changed their minds and came to see "Want to See You".

In the mini theater, after the safety knowledge short film and advertisement, the screen went black and then lit up instantly.

The main movie started.

Chen Linlin sat in the middle seat, holding a popcorn bucket in her hand, feeling slightly excited.

The other girls were similar to her, and it was the first time for them to sit in the cinema and watch a movie properly.

Madam Xu sat on the left side of Chen Linlin, with a focused expression, and a glass of orange juice was placed on the armrest next to her.

In the first frame of the movie, the not-so-loud cicada chirping brought the wind to gently brush the densely clustered osmanthus flowers on the branches, and the osmanthus flowers fell to the ground like rain.

The camera turned, and as the noises around gradually increased, a pair of white canvas shoes came into view. The camera moved from bottom to top, and a girl wearing a dark blue and white school uniform sat in the third row of the first group by the window, her eyes as calm as water.

The girl's name was Yan Jianing, a freshman in Mingde No. 5 High School.

On the first day of high school, before the self-study class, the classroom was in a commotion.

The classmates around her were in groups of three or five, busy making friends and chatting about the madness of the holidays.

Yan Jianing sat in her seat with a book spread out in front of her, but her eyes were not focused.

The boy sitting next to her was particularly lively. After making a fuss with the student in front of him, he turned around and talked to the student behind him.

Yan Jianing heard that they seemed to be talking about her, and they were urging each other to talk to her. Yan Jianing's heart skipped a beat, and she leaned towards the window, feeling a little nervous.

At this time, the head teacher came in from the front door with a notebook, walked up to the podium, picked up the blackboard eraser and knocked on the blackboard, and then lowered her voice. The classroom gradually became quiet.

...

In the screening room, Chen Linlin listened carefully to the teacher's speech on the podium, and her eyes became wider and wider.

Is this in the school?

But why are there even girls in this school?

Not only that, it seems very common for boys and girls to sit together in the same room.

In the private room next door, Xie Wan, Sun Qinghe and other noble ladies were also full of confusion.

They did not go to school like the men in their families, but most of their families hired female teachers to teach them how to read and write.

Female relatives were used to listening to teachers' lectures in the courtyard, and they also had to learn housekeeping, accounting, and embroidery at the same time, but they had never gone to school with men.

The only exception was probably Princess Deyi, the daughter of the former crown prince.

Princess Deyi was very favored by Emperor Wu, and even went to Chongwenguan with other princes and princes to study.

It was only in the past two years that the princess stopped going because she was about to reach marriageable age.

They never thought that there would be a school in the world where men and women could go.

Regardless of gender, they all read the same books and did the same homework.

To be honest, the beginning of this film is not as attractive as the previous stories because it is too unfamiliar.

The background of the story is beyond the cognitive scope of the people of the Dawu Dynasty. It is impossible to bring it into real life, nor can it predict the direction of the story, and even don’t know where to expect it to develop.

But on the other hand, the scenes in the story have an indescribable sense of reality, because some scenes can occasionally be found in real scenes in movie theaters, such as the toilets for men and women, the sausage grill in the corner of the canteen, and the bottled drink called Coke. Everything makes the audience in the theater wonder involuntarily: Does such a world really exist?

If it really exists, what exactly does it look like?

If you can’t imagine it, then you can only read on.

Maybe you will know after watching this movie.
