Tokyo's Yamanote Line is the main commuter line for Tokyoites. The starting station is Shinagawa Station in Minato Ward and the end station is Tabata Station in Kita Ward. The line is in a ring shape and passes through many transportation hubs, making it a veritable transportation lifeline.
Ikebukuro is the most prosperous neighborhood along the Yamanote Line, except for Shinjuku and Shibuya.
Nagayama Naoki came to this place this morning, a movie theater called "Literary Theater". Yoshimura Otomo chose this place as the venue for the preview of "Hot Blood High School,"
On the one hand, this is because this cinema is a famous one in Tokyo, and on the other hand, because there are many young people in Ikebukuro, and the "Literary Seat" is the favorite place for young people who love to watch movies to gather.
In addition to inviting media reporters and industry insiders, this preview screening also reserved some empty seats and invited young people who often come here to watch movies to watch in advance.
Because he was not an actor, Naoki Nagayama just wore a simple white T-shirt and breathable linen trousers and came to the "Literary Session" in Ikebukuro.
“Quite hard to find”
After parking the car, Naoki Nagayama looked at the building on the corner of the street. On the outer wall facing the intersection was a sign with an angel holding a piano. There were several small windows on the outer wall next to it. A simple "literary sitting" three
The big sign is right there.
Even on school days, there are many young college students coming and going, as if they don't even have to go to school.
After Naoki Nagayama walked into the cinema, he saw Otomo Yoshimura in the small ticket hall:
"Otomo-san."
Yoshimura Otomo was talking to someone. When he saw Nagayama Naoki coming, he said sorry and walked next to him, "Naoki-san, you're here too."
"I shouldn't be late, right? How is everyone here?"
"We just started coming here." Yoshimura Otomo said, "Shuichi-san said he was going to pick up his teacher and we will come together later."
"Is this so"
Nagayama Naoki occupied the ticket hall for a while, and a familiar reporter or an unknown young man walked into the cinema one after another, and then followed the signs and entered the screening room.
But what makes Nagayama Naoki strange is that the friends he personally gave away the movie reels, such as friends like Chiko Aoyama or Suzumi Hoshino, are they collectively lost?
With this idea in mind, Nagayama Naoki walked to the road outside the "Literary Arts Center" and looked around and waited. He couldn't help thinking that in this era without mobile phones, it was really inconvenient.
The clouds in the sky blocked the dazzling sunlight, depicting a scene of blue sky and white clouds, which made people on the ground feel relaxed and happy.
From time to time, a gust of breeze chases me, blowing past the ears of passers-by, and then naughtily walks away.
On the streets that extend to the left and right of Ikebukuro Station, pedestrians are coming and going towards their respective destinations, and everyone seems to be unable to stop and enjoy this wonderful time.
However, Naoki Nagayama is an exception.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window at the corner of the street, Naoki Nagayama was waiting for his friend in boredom. Occasionally, he turned around and looked at the shops and snack bars with period characteristics, as well as the joking young people walking in twos and threes. An idea came to his mind.
Speaking of which, it might be a good choice for you and Akina to go shopping here.
After unconsciously daydreaming for a while, Nagayama Naoki felt that something was wrong. Everyone who walked by seemed to stop and look at him. Some girls even slowed down their pace and deliberately walked in front of him.
"Have you been recognized?"
Nagayama Naoki's first thought was this, but he has been away from the screen for almost half a year. With the exception of some die-hard fans, Tokyoites who like the new and dislike the old should have long forgotten about such a long gap period.
Until a few bold young girls walked up to Nagayama Naoki and laughed:
"Which school does this classmate come from? Can you get to know him?"
Um, this is me being accosted!
"Arnold, actually I'm not a student." Naoki Nagayama tried to answer the questions of several young girls, "I'm just working here today."
But another problem immediately came up:
"Hangdou? So what does this guy do? A model?"
"No, no, although I worked part-time once before, modeling was really not my career at that time." Nagayama Naoki originally wanted to give a good answer, "Actually, I work as a screenwriter and..."
"Oh? Screenwriter!" One of the young ladies immediately became exaggeratedly surprised, "What kind of script has this guy written?! Do I know anything about it?"
Another girl was saying: "I haven't said my name yet!"
The voice came from nowhere: "The handsome guy looks familiar, have you seen it somewhere?"
"You idiot, you look familiar to a handsome guy!"
""
Nagayama Naoki felt like he couldn't even get a word in, and because several young girls gathered around the intersection, he slowly attracted more attention. Then many people discovered the handsome guy in the center and thought it was some kind of idol activity.
, so soon there was a group of people watching.
A word suddenly popped up from the crowd: "Isn't that Huaxin Naoki?"
"Really? Where is it?" "It's right inside!" "Impossible!" "Let me see!"
The crowded crowd formed a circle, trapping Nagayama Naoki, and there were even some sounds of taking pictures, allowing him to truly experience the impact of fame.
At this time, Nagayama Naoki was already confused by the complicated situation around him. He almost forgot what he was going to do when he came out. While taking the time to reply to the surrounding questions, he suddenly saw Chiko Aoyama and her companions who were walking across the street.
, and then he woke up.
"We can't stay here any longer, it will cause an accident!"
With this thought in his mind, Nagayama Naoki immediately squeezed towards the intersection, and then said to the people around him: "Private Marseille, I have something to do now, and the person I am waiting for has arrived! Please forgive me."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Finally squeezing out of the crowd, Nagayama Naoki immediately walked towards Chikako Aoyama on the opposite side.
Since the morning, Chikako Aoyama was in a good mood. She wore a cool dress and went to meet her best friends.
Because Naoki-san gave her two movie tickets for the preview screening of "Hot Blooded High School", and her grandfather Aoyama Nobu didn't really like watching such young movies, Chikoko was able to take her best friend to watch it.
After taking the subway to Ikebukuro, I walked and chatted with my best friend Hayakawa Uyo. The bright sunshine made me feel even more happy.
"Chikoko-chan, do you really know Naoki Nagayama?" Hayakawa Uyo asked curiously, "You can actually get tickets for the preview."
"Didn't I tell you before? Naoki-san is my grandpa's old friend, so we met." Chiko Aoyama didn't want her best friend to misunderstand anything, "The opportunity to preview the screening is also for grandpa! Naoki-san and I
Just ordinary friends!"
"Ordinary friends? Humph"
Hayakawa Uyo glanced up and down at Chikako Aoyama's good figure. She was so lustful at such a young age. It was really enviable!
"Chikoko-chan, by the way, that playboy Naoki, really didn't do anything to you? Didn't he do anything to you?"
"so!
We are just ordinary friends who happen to know each other! There is no such thing as what you said!" Chiko Aoyama's face turned red, and she said to her best friend in embarrassment, "Naoki-san is a very upright person!"
"Haha, that's right," Ushi Hayakawa curled his lips, "but I don't think there are cats in the world who don't steal fish."
"you"
Just when Chiko Aoyama continued to argue with Uyo Hayakawa, Uyo Hayakawa stopped, looked at the crowd opposite and said, "Huh? What's going on there? It seems like there is a road show?"
Chikako Aoyama also looked over: "It's probably some kind of activity."
At this moment, there was a commotion in the crowd, and then a figure suddenly squeezed out from the crowd. With simple and clean clothes and a fresh and handsome face, he could easily stand out even in a group of people.
But now, this figure actually moved quickly towards Chiko Aoyama and Uyo Hayakawa.
A young man who was a head taller than Chikoko Aoyama quickly ran up to them, panting slightly and said, "Chikoko-chan!"
Nagayama Naoki said briefly, and immediately took Chiko Aoyama's arm and ran towards the "Literary Theater" cinema, leaving a group of people looking at the two people's leaving figures, at a loss.
Among them was Hayakawa Uyo, who took a while to react and stamped his foot angrily: "Chikoko-chan! You said nothing happened to you!
"
Then he took small steps to follow the direction of the two people in front of him.
Naoki Nagayama took Chiko Aoyama's arm and pulled her to the ticket hall of the cinema before he stopped and let go of the astonished girl.
"Ah, it should be fine here." Nagayama Naoki looked back a little worriedly, and then breathed a sigh of relief when he saw no one was following him.
"Naoki-san? What's going on?" Chiko Aoyama's breathing was a little rapid, her face was red, and she was a little shy, "Is someone chasing you?"
"Ah, it attracted a little attention." Naoki Nagayama said to Chikako Aoyama embarrassedly, "I managed to escape with great difficulty."
Then he was very curious: "Why is Chikoko-chan alone today? Didn't Mr. Aoyama come?"
"Grandpa said he doesn't like to watch this kind of youth movie." Chiko Aoyama said, "So I came here with my friends."
After saying this, she suddenly remembered that she had a best friend!
Where have people gone!
"Ah Haku! Use-chan!"
Just as I was about to turn around, I saw a girl walking quickly into the ticket hall, with a very speechless expression on her face and a very resentful tone:
"Chikoko-chan"
"Private Marseille, I didn't react just now." Chiko Aoyama held Ushi's arm, "Please forgive me!"
Nagayama Naoki also reacted at this time and stepped forward: "Ah, this is Chikoko-chan's friend, I'm sorry I just pulled someone over so recklessly."
Hayakawa Ushi saw a handsome guy talking to her, and she felt a little shy for a moment: "Ah, it's okay. This is a playboy, isn't it, Nagayama Naoki-san?"
"Well, yes!" Nagayama Naoki pretended not to have heard the other part of the sentence and welcomed the two of them with a smile, "Welcome to support my new movie today! If you have any opinions after watching it, you must put it forward frankly.
!”
"Hey, I can do it!" Ushi Hayakawa immediately became active.
At this time, more and more people came to the ticket office. Many friends in the industry would see Nagayama Naoki, and he stopped talking to the two of them.
"Chikoko-chan, please bring your friends in first. I also want to greet the new arrivals."
"Hi"
Seeing Nagayama Naoki walking in with a girl, Yoshimura Otomo didn't say much and didn't know what to say, so he chose to turn a blind eye.
When Nagayama Naoki returned and continued to welcome guests with him, he acted as if nothing had happened, greeted the people who came in with a smile, and guided them to the broadcast room.
People who came in from time to time, those who knew each other, said hello to Otomo Yoshimura and Naoki Nagayama, while those who did not know them went directly into the broadcasting hall. Gradually, the number of people in the broadcasting hall became more and more full.
"Otomo-san, are all the people we invited almost here?"
"Most of them are probably here," Yoshimura Otomo said. "If they really didn't come, it should be because of other things."
While the two were chatting, a man with a camera walked in from the door and greeted Naoki Nagayama directly:
"Naoki-san, good morning?"
What's going on with this guy? The smile on his face feels a little gloating, but he looks very familiar.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Good morning, you are"
"Ah, Naoki-san is such a noble person who forgets things." Matsuzawa Shinnosuke's expression remained unchanged, "I am the Matsuzawa Shinnosuke who often asks you questions!"
Ah! Now that I think about it, this guy has asked Naoki Nagayama difficult questions at several preview screenings. Did he come again this time?
A bad-tempered guy.
"Ah, it turns out to be Matsuzawa-san, long time no see!" There seemed to be sparks, and Yoshimura Otomo immediately took over the conversation, "Hurry in, the movie is about to start!"
"Ha, that's right!" Matsuzawa Shinnosuke smiled, as if he was in a good mood today, "I heard it's a very good movie."
"That's a great reward." Nagayama Naoki felt that this guy seemed to have come with good intentions today.
Matsuzawa Shinnosuke turned around and walked towards the broadcasting hall, but when he was about to enter the door, he suddenly turned around and said: "By the way, Naoki-san, are there any friends who haven't been admitted yet?"
"?friend?"
"Ah, I just happened to take a picture of Naoki-san picking up someone, so I just wanted to ask."
Matsuzawa Shinnosuke took a picture of his camera, looking very proud and frivolous.
"It's getting late. The movie is about to be played. I have a lot of questions for Naoki-san during the media meeting later."
After saying that, the guy turned around and went inside, feeling so excited that he almost jumped out of his chest: "This time, I finally caught your handle!"
Naoki Nagayama and Otomo Yoshimura looked at each other:
"Otomo-san, that guy was provoking just now, right? He was definitely provoking, right?"
"Well, maybe he is just born with difficulty controlling facial expressions." Yoshimura Otomo said with a relaxed expression as he talked about a disease that he didn't even know about.
What, you want to use this bit of tidbits to influence Naoki Nagayama?
