Rewind to three months ago.

Xianguo Cheonan-do, Weibuk-gun.

In Xianguo, "Dao" is approximately equal to "province", and "county" is approximately equal to "county" - roughly so, a rough impression is sufficient.

There is a small town in Weibei County called Chong'an Town.

This town is not ordinary, as it is located in the middle of a mountain.

A long time ago, this was just a barren mountain and a wild mountain, and there were no people at all, but later the missile unit of the People's Army came to camp here.

Over the years, with the increase in military dependents, the neighborhood gradually prospered, and then gradually there was Chong'an Town.

The main cinema in Chong'an Town.

The word "Juche" is well known to the world in Xianguo, so there is no need to repeat it.

This main cinema is similar to the "Dongfanghong Cinema" in China back then, and it just means that - that is, to give the director of the cinema a hundred guts, and he doesn't dare to use another name, right?

To put it bluntly, this main cinema is similar to a large auditorium full of benches, see those cinemas in China in the sixties and seventies.

Don't think about what peanuts and melon seeds mineral water, let alone the box couple seats, there is no ......

At this moment, there was a long queue in front of the ticket office of the movie theater, and people were in good order—if it was not orderly, it would be a long time, because two armed soldiers were staring coldly at the people queuing up to buy tickets.

In addition to taking out the money to buy the ticket, the ticket buyer also took out a small book and handed it to the conductor, who quickly stamped a red seal on the small book to prove that the person had seen the movie.

The name of the movie is "The Little Girl Who Sold Peanuts", and the people in line have watched it dozens of times from childhood to adulthood, and everyone can memorize every line in the movie, but this does not prevent people from being "excited" to watch this movie again.

It is said that the screenwriter of this movie is amazing, and the grandfather of "today" wrote it, who dares not to watch it?

The conductor was a young woman in her twenties named Choi Soon-hwa.

Choi Soon-hwa is very beautiful, her husband is Kim Sung-jae, a colonel of the People's Army, and Choi Soon-hwa is a famous beauty in the whole town of Chong'an.

Don't look at the other places where the job of a conductor may not seem to be on the table, but here, the conductor is definitely one of the most advanced jobs.

Maybe the vicinity of the big cities such as Pingyang or Kaicheng is more modern, but in Weibei County, it belongs to the "old and young, the border and the poor", and the standard of living is estimated to be not much different from that of the seventies and eighties in China.

Naturally, the mountainous areas cannot be compared with the plains.

In Chong'an Town, people's living standards are generally not high, let alone spiritual and cultural aspects. Being able to watch a movie is really a good thing that I don't dare to hope for.

Although the content of the movie is all "high" themes, and everyone has watched it dozens of times, it does not affect people's enthusiasm for watching movies.

If you don't even have to watch a movie, what can you do?

Cui Shunhua, as an employee of the cinema, in addition to movies with "tall" themes, sometimes can also watch some internal movies that are not so "tall".

Of course, this is not "that kind of" movie - in the hearts of the vast majority of people, as long as it is a normal movie, it is a hundred times better than the "tall" theme.

In less than half an hour, all the movie tickets were sold, and those who didn't buy tickets had their eyes full of disappointment, so they could only leave stupidly, waiting to come back tomorrow.

As soon as the audience entered, the doors of the cinema were closed.

In addition to selling tickets, Choi Soon-hwa is also responsible for helping to maintain order in the cinema.

Before the official opening of the movie "The Little Girl Who Sold Peanuts", a fifteen-minute warm-up film will be broadcast, and the content of the film is naturally a promotional short film in line with the "main theme".

After watching the warm-up film, "The Little Girl Who Sold Peanuts" was officially opened, and the movie theater was silent, and everyone watched the movie intently.

If other people have only seen it dozens of times, then Cui Shunhua has seen it at least two hundred times......

She has not been interested in the content of the movie for a long time, but she doesn't dare to show half of it.

At this time, Cui Shunhua, who was sitting in the back row of the movie theater, found that many people smoked in the movie theater, and the smoke was surrounded, which affected the light of the projector.

Chong'an Town is relatively backward, and smoking in the cinema is not a big deal, see China in the seventies and eighties, there is no need to repeat it.

Cui Shunhua found colleagues who maintained order in the movie theater and reminded moviegoers to extinguish the smoke row by row.

After doing this, Cui Shunhua said hello to her colleagues, saying that she was a little uncomfortable, and then went back to the dormitory alone.

……

Following.

It was the "Juche Thought Learning Day", and all the staff of the cinema attended to learn the great ideas of the great leader!

However, Director Li of the cinema found that the ticket seller Cui Shunhua was absent and did not come.

Dean Li was a little unhappy in his heart, but because Cui Shunhua's husband was a colonel of the People's Army, he always had to give a few thin noodles, so he suppressed his dissatisfaction in his heart.

Before the successful completion of the learning work, each employee has to speak.

At this time, a man named Huang Xilin stood up and insinuated to say something bad about Cui Shunhua.

Huang Xilin is in his 40s, and his son, who is also an officer in the People's Army, has a bit of a problem with Cui Shunhua's husband.

In fact, the so-called "colonel", at least here, is really not a big official, I dare not say that it is an officer who throws a brick and hits, but it is not too much.

Maybe an ordinary army colonel is really an official, but in the missile forces, there are basically no soldiers here - the missile troops are the trump card of Xianguo, they are well paid and their ranks are very high.

As soon as Huang Xilin said this, Dean Li felt even more uncomfortable.

Don't look at Dean Li is just the director of the cinema, but his military rank is colonel!

The cinema is also a "GEMING" propaganda unit, and it is also a member of the army's art troupe system, and they are also serious officers.

After the meeting, Dean Li immediately sent someone to the dormitory to find Cui Shunhua, wondering why she didn't ask for leave today.

Soon the people sent came back to report that Choi Soon-hwa was not in the dormitory and no one knew where she had gone.

Dean Li thought that Cui Shunhua was looking for her husband Jin Cheng, so he dialed an internal phone and called Jin Cheng at the unit.

As a result, Jin Cheng said that Cui Shunhua did not come to him, and asked Dean Li to ask the kindergarten and the hospital to see if Cui Shunhua had gone to these two places.

Dean Li then sent someone to look for her, but there was no trace of Cui Shunhua in the hospital, and the kindergarten in the full nursery also said that Cui Shunhua was not seen.

At this moment, Dean Li felt a little uneasy in his heart, and he led people to Cui Shunhua's dormitory.

The door of Cui Shunhua's dormitory was locked, and the people who came to inquire before just looked in from the window, and went back to report without seeing Cui Shunhua.

Now Dean Li found the spare key to the dormitory and opened the locked door.

This is a single room with only a few simple pieces of furniture.

As soon as Dean Li entered the room, he found that the electric light on the roof of the dormitory had not been turned off and had been on.

With the lights on?

Who turns on the lights in broad daylight?

Could it be that Cui Shunhua went out last night......?
