Hamasaki Ayumi's secret expectation was that Shinichi Iwahashi would break his late return. However, Hikari Utada discovered this first.
That secret expectation suddenly became a secret between the two girls.
Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina came back very late. When they returned home late at night, the two girls had already gone back to their rooms. The next morning, Utada Hikaru came and asked Iwahashi Shinichi, "Iwahashi-san, you said you wanted me to work in the company
Is it true?"
"What?" Iwahashi Shinichi's reaction was as if he had been hit unexpectedly.
Ayumi Hamasaki helped place the plates. When he heard Utada Hikaru's sudden request, he glanced at her, as if he felt that Utada Hikaru was not asking a question to Iwahashi Shinichi, but to himself.
Iwahashi Shinichi came to his senses and felt helpless when he thought about dealing with Ayumi Hamasaki and the weird Utada Hikaru. However, Utada Hikaru also wanted to "work" in the company, and it was definitely not because he was jealous of Hamasaki Ayumi.
Competition.
Even Shinichi Iwahashi often couldn't figure out what this child was thinking, and occasionally even had a subtle feeling that he was being teased by this child. But Utada Hikaru's talent was that when she teased others, she didn't do it herself.
consciousness.
But this time, whether she was teasing Shinichi Iwahashi or Ayumi Hamasaki, she couldn't tell.
Utada Hikaru had already said, "If you can take in one minor, you can take in two." Even if Iwahashi Shinichi had no choice, he had no choice but to pick up a sheep and herd two sheep, and asked her to come after school.
Go to the company.
In fact, if we really want to talk about it, Utada Hikaru would follow Shinichi Iwahashi to the company from time to time. But this time, his identity changed from a child who followed an adult to work to a child laborer working overtime without pay.
Nakamori Akina watched the excitement in the early morning and found it funny that Shinichi Iwahashi was being led by Utada Hikari. She didn't realize that she had completely different attitudes towards the two girls, but she discovered that Hamasaki was also listening to the conversation between the two.
Step by step, keep silent, and behave unexpectedly.
When Utada accidentally shared the same secret with her, it was difficult for Hamasaki to speak.
…
Ayumi Hamasaki came, and Hikaru Utada came. The small reception room next to Shinichi Iwahashi's office temporarily became a temporary workspace for the two girls.
It was a workroom, not a nursery, so it was somewhat merciful to Shinichi Iwahashi.
Elementary school student Utada Hikaru got off school early and was the first to report. She said she was working part-time, but there was nothing she could do. She had an idea herself and asked Iwahashi Shinichi: "What does Ayu-chan do?"
Iwahashi Shinichi told her, "Compile the letters sent to the company." He paused and confirmed with her: "You don't want to compete with Ayu, do you?"
After hearing this, Utada Hikari asked: "Ayu-chan is competing with someone?"
Iwahashi Shinichi was stunned by the question and shook his head. Utada Hikaru didn't care about his attitude and asked him again: "What should I do? Iwahashi-san."
If you really want to say it, even though Utada Hikaru is five years younger than Hamasaki, his literacy level may not be much weaker than Hamasaki. Iwahashi Shinichi secretly slandered, but after all, it is not easy for Utada Hikaru to do the work of sorting letters.
.
He had his own plan, "Xiaoguang will be responsible for listening to the audition tape sent to the company." When he brought Utada Hikari to the company to play before, Shinichi Iwahashi had brought the audition tape to her and arranged for her to do something like this.
I'm saving you the trouble of teaching her something.
"Ayu-chan and I are doing work related to the audience. In that case, she and I are colluders." Utada Hikaru said in a surprising way.
Iwahashi Shinichi sweated, "The word 'complicit' is not suitable to be used here." As soon as he praised Utada Hikari in his heart for having a rich vocabulary that was far superior to that of his peers, he immediately learned a lesson from reality.
Utada Hikaru was corrected, but his expression did not change. Shinichi Iwahashi saw this, and while he was relieved that Utada Hikaru was not jealous of Hamasaki Ayumi, he couldn't help but have new worries. He always felt that she was following Minato to work part-time.
It's so lively because he has some idea to tease Hamasaki Ayumi.
If Utada Hikaru really wanted to play a trick on Hamasaki, then the word "complicit" would mean a lot.
…
Ayumi Hamasaki arrived at school, and Ayako, who had invited her to go to the disco yesterday, met her and asked: "Ayu went back last night, did you catch the gate?"
There was a hint of ridicule in Ayako's tone.
Yesterday, the people who came home even later were Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamori Akina. The whole idea passed through Hamasaki's mind and he did not answer Ayako.
"So, no problem." Ayako made her own decision and came to a conclusion. She seemed impatient and wanted to bring Ayumi Hamasaki into her world. She was very interested in discussing the next arrangement with her.
Ayako suddenly lowered her voice and whispered to Hamasaki Ayumi: "Nagase-kun in my class, do you want to try asking him out? Ayu knows him, right?"
"If I make an appointment with Nagase-kun, maybe he will bring other Johnnys to play with him." Ayako looked forward to it.
However, Ayumi Hamasaki was not interested in Ayako's expectations. She politely declined, "I have a part-time job today."
"Part-time job?" Ayako's reaction seemed to be that she heard something incredible. She looked at Hamasaki Ayumi, her expression confused for a moment, "Ayu is really mysterious."
Hamasaki smiled and asked, "Why do you think so?"
Ayako commented on her, "You don't look like you want to be an artist at all. Why did Ayu come to Tokyo to study in Horikoshi's arts class?"
This friend whom I had just met asked one after another questions that Ayumi Hamasaki could not answer.
But Ayako said that she didn't seem to want to be an artist, which touched Hamasaki.
After school, Ayumi Hamasaki went to GENZO Records. It was not until she entered the company and greeted the front desk lady that she was already familiar with that she realized that Utada Hikaru was also coming to "work" today.
This morning, Utada Hikaru's sudden suggestion made Hamasaki feel something coming towards him.
She gathered her emotions and prepared to report to Shinichi Iwahashi. Before going to see Shinichi Iwahashi, Hamasaki walked into the small conference room next door.
When I opened the door, I saw Utada Hikaru.
Attracted by her movements, Utada Hikari raised his head, with big headphones on his round little head. This look is not unlovable.
The small conference room was clearly divided, and the two girls each occupied one side.
Hamasaki looked away from Utada Hikari, walked to his side, picked up the sorted letter, walked out, and knocked on the door of Shinichi Iwahashi's office.
When sorting out the letters, there was a letter written in a child's handwriting. Hamasaki kept it in mind and thought, such a letter is neither a suggestion nor a criticism, and it does not even look like it is written by the audience to the company.
letter.
When opening this letter, Hamasaki Ayumi thought that he should show it to Shinichi Iwahashi.
She walked out of the conference room, and Hikaru Utada pressed the pause button and took off his headphones.
