At noon on the 21st, Shinichi Iwahashi made a reservation to have lunch at Chieko's new home.
On this day, Akina Nakamori was backstage at the concert venue, preparing for the evening performance. So, when Chieko decided to go to the concert, Shinichi Iwahashi volunteered and took over the task of picking up Chieko.
Chieko herself had the idea of taking a ride to Nakano SUNPLAZA. However, after hearing Akina Nakamori say that Iwahashi Shinichi went to pick her up, she immediately changed her mind and went to purchase ingredients a day in advance to prepare her signature fried burgers for Iwahashi Shinichi.
Ever since the impression of eating fried burgers left in Chieko's mind by accident, in order to maintain his passion for fried burgers, Iwahashi Shinichi rarely eats them in his daily life, and regards this Chieko's specialty dish as a...
A dish he keeps when he goes to visit his mother-in-law.
Every time she heard that the children were going there, she would prepare with great enthusiasm. This aspect of Chieko's personality was something Shinichi Iwahashi sometimes saw in Akina Nakamori.
Chieko was cheerful and fashionable, and she treated him like an equal when chatting. It was only when she was busy preparing for the arrival of her children that Shinichi Iwahashi experienced the feeling of a child visiting the home of an amiable elder.
Of course, both of his parents in his hometown in Shizuoka are good people. Iwahashi Shinichi respects his parents in his hometown. However, when faced with Iwahashi Masaaki and Iwahashi Chiyo, he will not have the kind of feeling that a child would want to act coquettishly towards his elders.
Of course, Shinichi Iwahashi got in touch with Chieko because of his relationship with Akina Nakamori. But he also really liked Chieko, an elder who sometimes didn't act like an elder, but never lost his trust, and was willing to get in touch with her.
This feeling is not only like being pampered by her as a child, but also like making a happy friend.
Since Chieko moved to her new home, Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina visited once. However, the location of her new home is not difficult to find. At least, compared to the first time I went to Kiyose, I listened to Nakamori Akinato's words on the phone.
It's much easier when giving instructions in Xiyiyi.
The small home that belongs to Chieko is kept in order according to her preferences.
When Iwahashi Shinichi arrived, lunch was almost ready. Someone came to have lunch with her, and Chieko was happy. Although she was not the kind of person who couldn't get excited about eating alone, but there were more people,
It is obviously a very pleasant thing for her to prepare a few more things and show off her cooking skills.
The affectionate driver sent Shinichi Iwahashi there and had lunch with him. When talking on the phone the day before, Shinichi Iwahashi had agreed on the number of people in advance, and Chieko made preparations for three people.
The driver who is following Shinichi Iwahashi is named Kinoshita, and he is seven or eight years older than him.
After Mitochi Iijima was assigned to deal with Johnny's side, he no longer played the role of driver. Previously, Shinichi Iwahashi proposed to open a sponsored music program for the teenagers entrusted to him by Kitagawa, which would benefit the band.
The "cultivation" is integrated into the program and broadcasted to the public.
On the one hand, it is to allow the public to participate in the development process and see their efforts with their own eyes instead of just putting them together to show off. On the other hand, according to Shinichi Iwahashi's plan, a large number of famous and talented singers and singers are invited to
The producer came as a guest on the show and sat with several teenagers to create the show.
When they are qualified to be on an equal footing with big shots, at least conveying this impression to the audience through TV programs, it will naturally give the public the impression that these teenagers are indeed different from the Johnnys of the past.
After Kitagawa agreed to Iwahashi Shinichi's plan, he contacted various TV stations. At the end of this year, he finalized cooperation with NTV and planned to launch such a program on NTV for several teenagers. It will be piloted as a late-night program starting next spring.
Iwahashi Shinichi was invited by Kitagawa Kao and will serve as a consultant for the program.
He was the nominal consultant, but the person specifically responsible for dealing with the TV station and Johnny's was Mitochi Iijima. When several teenagers made their mainstream debut, the record contract was transferred to GENZO, and she had to continue to be responsible.
After several contacts, Kitagawa Suo also admired Iijima Mitochi and felt quite reassured about her taking on the role of Iwahashi Shinichi's agent.
To be able to gain the trust of an old man like Kitagawa Kaguya, even though Iwahashi Shinichi knew that Iijima Mitochi was talented, he had to confirm this in his heart again.
As for Iijima Mitochi, who has gained Kitagawa's trust, her own value has obviously been improved and she has become more indispensable. If nothing unexpected happens, Iwahashi Shinichi will still be sent when dealing with Johnny again in the future.
Mijima Iijima is the agent.
As for Kinoshita, the driver after Iijima Mitochi, Iwahashi Shinichi also plans to transfer him to another job next year. By then, he will have to recruit a new driver.
…
Chieko brought over the coarse tea after the meal, and Shinichi Iwahashi thanked her, "Thank you for your hospitality, Chieko-san."
The emotional driver also lowered his head and thanked him.
"Eating a clean plate is the highest praise for a cook." Chieko was in good spirits, "I feel happy... By the way, thank you Shinichi-kun for the gift."
The bouquet of flowers in the vase on the chest of drawers in the living room was fresh and moving. Shinichi Iwahashi recognized that this vase was the one that had been placed on the chest of drawers when he was at the old house of the Nakamori family in Kiyose.
The watercolor painting of Misora Hibari that he gave to Chieko hangs near the vase.
After leaving Kiyose, Chieko seemed to have moved out part of her original life intact. In fact, even though she was divorced, the surname "Nakamori" was still hanging on the nameplate outside the door.
Chieko has been "Chieko Nakamori" for most of her life, and now it's a lot of trouble to change her surname back to her old name. In this case, she simply continues to use this surname.
Anyway, people have bid farewell to their old lives, and they will not be buried in the grave of the Kiyose Nakamori family after death. Once you have regained the key to your own life, and have your own life, it makes no difference whether your surname is Nakamori or Shimori.
.
The reason why I don't change my surname is definitely not because I can't let go, but because I feel truly free and easy.
"By the way, how's Kenta-kun doing lately?"
Chieko was also holding a teacup and chatting with Shinichi Iwahashi.
It turned out that when Chieko was still in the old house of the Nakamori family, Nakamori Akina occasionally sent the puppy to her mother to foster for a few days. However, where she lives now, dogs are prohibited.
"Recently, the level of naughtiness has doubled compared to before." Shinichi Iwahashi replied, "It's almost the age to consider sterilization."
Chieko smiled as if she felt pity for Kenta, but also seemed to be watching the fun, "I see."
