The plane arrived in Tokyo at around two o'clock in the afternoon.
The bright afternoon sun made the fuselage of the aircraft very hot. As soon as Miha stepped out of the gangway, half of her shoulders were slightly sore from the sun.
This reminded her of the flight she took at the same airport last year, with the opposite direction and completely different weather - it was freezing and drizzling.
But the mood at this time is the same as that of half a year ago. In terms of soul, returning to the magic city is a return to the hometown, and in terms of the body and memory gained, returning to Tokyo this time is also a return to the hometown of a wanderer.
Breathing the anxious air of early summer, the faces of my parents, my sister Lisa, and my grandparents appeared one by one.
See you soon!
Miha calculated in her mind that on Monday afternoon, her sister Risa would go to class and her mother Nayuki would look after the store. Today, her father should take a temporary leave to pick them up at the airport.
She walked off the plane with her skirt in hand and tried to identify her father among the people picking her up, but she was startled.
A sign with exaggerated writing in Japanese and English was held high in the crowd.
【Welcome Mid-Season Champions Cup winner mika to return to China!】
Miha thinks that her popularity in Japan has soared to the level of a first-class sports star like Ai Fukuhara in a short period of time, and her fan popularity is close to the level of an ordinary idol. If she officially returns to China, she may indeed be picked up by fans.
However, she did not disclose her flight information this time, nor was she officially invited to any events. Logically speaking, only extremely energetic sasaeng fans would have the opportunity and ability to wait at the airport...
She didn't hate the feeling of being surrounded by fans, but it would be troublesome if she was pestered by a guy like a sasaeng fan. She was going to pretend not to notice and walk around the sign.
However, as I was walking by with my hair spread out and my face covered, my father's voice came from under the pick-up sign over there.
"Mixia! Didn't you see it?!"
"Mixia, hey, this way!"
…
She turned around again, and finally saw the panting father Momotani Renkiri beside the young man running towards here holding a sign.
She ran over quickly.
"Dad! You picked me up right away. Why are you still wearing a support card? I almost thought you were a bastard who secretly checked my privacy!"
"Huh, bastard, what is bastard rice?" Dad bent over and gasped, pointing to the side and pushing the pot, "And it's not my idea, it's all this guy's idea!"
The big brother holding the fan sign was a little nervous, and he bowed quickly and said, "Ah! Hello, this is the first time we meet! I am the subordinate of Mr. Momotani Renkiri, the head of the equipment department, Hayashihara Yusuke."
"Um, um, because I am a loyal League of Legends player and a fan of yours, Mika! So this time I asked Hasikiri-senpai a little too much to allow me to come to the airport to help pick people up! I even held up a sign and almost caused a misunderstanding!"
Meixia had heard about her father's subordinate on the phone, and she learned e-sports knowledge from him in her father's company.
It’s not surprising that you, an office worker in your late thirties, like video games, but in front of my father, who is also your immediate boss, you are a fan of a girl who is seven or eight years younger than you. You are really not afraid of social death!
But from the way my dad talks on the phone, I think I think he values him quite a lot. Mika also bowed and said hello, "Ah! I'm Momotani Mika, Arigado! Thank you for supporting my dad a lot in the company!"
Hayashihara Yusuke smiled and said, "Wow, in real life, it looks so much more kawaii than in the photos!"
Dad hurriedly interrupted, "Hey! I agreed to make an exception and bring you to meet Mixia just because you taught me how to watch League of Legends games in real time and those weird terminology! Little bastard, don't fight.
My daughter’s idea!”
There were more than two people picking up the plane. As they were talking, they heard the crisp sound of heels and tiles. An older but charming middle-aged lady ran over with difficulty on high heels.
"This is my daughter Momotani Mika," the dads quickly introduced each other. "This is Ms. Tanaka Rina, the director of the marketing department of our club. She also heard that you are very famous now, mika, and she is curious to come to see you.
Woolen cloth!"
Is this a way to show off your daughter in front of the entire company? Dad, you are too weak and heartbroken!
Meixia nodded and said hello as usual.
After meeting at the airport, they were driven home together by their father's subordinates.
In the car, I just listened to the father in the passenger seat showing off to his colleagues, "Let me tell you, I really didn't think my daughter could have such a great talent for video games. I thought she was hanging out with a group of bad boys outside.
!”
"If it hadn't been for the e-sports president who came to my house to persuade me personally, and Yusuke's explanation to me during the company dinner, I would have almost called the police and arrested Miha."
"Hey, when I was a kid, I always lost in Street Fighter and Pokémon battles with my classmates. Her mother didn't play games much either. I really don't know where this talent for gaming was passed down from!"
Meixia sat in the back seat and listened obediently.
Didn't feel any noise.
Having inherited her memory and body, she can naturally sympathize with Momotani Renki's fatherly love. Apart from a slight generation gap with the young man, he is already a very good father.
"But, Section Chief Tanaka, why have you ever played League of Legends? I didn't know you were interested in video games before."
The woman sitting next to Mika and staring at her replied, "I have never played games. I heard Mika's name from my daughter. I heard the name of the big e-sports star she has been talking about recently. It seems to be the same as the previous one."
Section Chief Momotani, who was criticized for watching game videos at work, looks a bit like...
In addition, I was troubled by the recent plans of the marketing department, so I asked out of curiosity, but I didn’t expect that it was really Section Chief Momoya’s daughter..."
"Ahem... don't say this kind of thing in front of Mixia." Dad blushed, "I just accidentally opened the website and forgot to close it."
Why……
Although joining a big company in Japan means getting a guaranteed job, my father, a middle-aged man, still has a hard time working in the workplace.
Mixia was thinking this.
Ms. Tanaka, who had been staring at her face for a while, finally reached out and pinched her face.
So smooth and tender!
"Director Momotani, what kind of facial cleanser and cosmetics does your daughter usually use?"
Mixia covered the pinched half of her face.
The father in front said, "Ah? Miha uses the gifts given out by the company during the holidays! How about it? My two daughters have both inherited the appearance advantages of me and her mother! Except for the height, she inherited her mother... "
Minister Tanaka was a little surprised. She begged Section Chief Momotani to come to see his daughter who played video games, not just to get her daughter's autograph and photo.
The company's skin care products have been struggling to effectively market themselves.
As the largest and oldest daily chemical company in Japan, the head office did not enter the cosmetics and skin care industry until the end of the last century. Therefore, as a branch established by a skin care brand, it has never been able to beat Shiseido and other brands in terms of product sales.
Now, perhaps we can use Mixia, a popular female e-sports player, to open up promotional channels.
She felt the unfinished touch of her fingertips and said with a smile, "Professor Mootani, do you want to be promoted?"
Dad still instinctively underestimated the popularity of e-sports in Japan, although the popularity is indeed not high, "You mean! Endorsement?! But in e-sports, Mixia is still not popular..."
Yusuke in the front row retorted, "What's wrong! Although League of Legends is only moderately popular right now, Mika's popularity in Japan is already comparable to that of a TV star! Not to mention overseas, there are tens of millions of e-sports viewers!"
