The two of them had just sat down a few minutes ago.
This is a cafe opened next to Fuji TV. The shop is next to the TV station. TV employees or well-known and unknown artists come to patronize it every day, so it is not unusual to see anyone.
Even so, there is something special about this combination.
One of them is Akina Toshida Nakamori, and the other is Yukiko Okada, who has retired for several months.
The entertainment world is very forgetful, but Yukiko Okada was at her peak when she retired. She retired with great fanfare and had a good reputation when she retired. Besides, she had not been out of the entertainment world for a long time, and she suddenly appeared here.
Someone recognized her.
Of course, even if it is discovered that the person with Nakamori Akina is Okada Yukiko, no one will come forward to disturb her.
The way Okada Yukiko is dressed now looks no different from the common female college students on the street. After retiring, although she no longer has to control her figure, she did not gain ten pounds immediately and she still looks very slim.
However, if she is no longer an idol, she no longer has to maintain a certain image under the requirements of the agency. Even if she changes her hairstyle, she has to report to her agent for approval. Therefore, she also changed her idol-like hairstyle and got a haircut.
Quite refreshing short hair.
It is still during the summer vacation. Okada Yukiko returned to her hometown in Nagoya a while ago and returned to Tokyo in the past few days. Nakamori Akina has a tight schedule and rarely has a vacation throughout the year. She got together with friends, first had a meal together, and then went shopping together. Now, for
Taking care of Nakamori Akina's upcoming itinerary, I chose to sit in a cafe next to the TV station.
"We have eaten at this store several times before."
Before the food was delivered, the two girls were chatting. Yukiko Okada spoke with a hint of unconscious nostalgia in her tone.
“This store is very popular with everyone.”
At that time, not only did the two of them come over to drink tea together, but also occasionally other idols and young men and women of similar age during work breaks to have a lively drink together and chat about the latest trends and other topics.
Idols basically debut as teenagers, and among peers, there is both competition on stage and getting along off stage.
However, this was the first time Okada Yukiko came to this store after she retired. As she became an ordinary person and made friends with ordinary people, the scope of her activities also changed.
Although they are in different circles and it is rare to see each other in person. Most of the time they can only communicate by phone. However, when the two girls meet in person, they still feel cordial from the bottom of their hearts and can still play together.
Nakamori Akina really likes to hear Okada Yukiko tell her about school things, and finds it fresh and interesting. She debuted as a teenager and has not even finished high school, so college life is distant and unfamiliar to her.
"...Then, we all agreed to go camping and sketching in Karuizawa before the start of school." Okada Yukiko said. She likes to draw and joined the art club in school.
Akina Nakamori listened with great interest. Waiting for the coffee to be delivered, she casually took the napkin on the table and folded it in her hands while chatting. Unknowingly, there was an origami pigeon on the table.
"awesome."
Akina Nakamori smiled modestly: "It's a very basic origami technique..."
"I only know how to fold paper airplanes and paper cranes...and stars." Okada Yukiko moved forward and looked at the doves placed on the table.
"There are so many of them. The most powerful one is Yukiko."
Nakamori Akina teased her and told her, "I have only recently started to learn origami. I bought some origami-related books and learned from them. Now is the stage when I am most enthusiastic about learning, and Omoto-san said that I have reached the peak of my career."
Fold it wherever it goes."
"Haha!" Yukiko Okada smiled heartily.
This is of course an exaggeration, but Akina Nakamori really likes origami these days.
"This is not even close." Nakamori Akina looked at the pigeons placed on the table and sighed, "It's that kind of three-dimensional folding method that is amazing, it's like magic..."
She remembered the origami cat given to her by Shinichi Iwahashi.
After receiving the origami cat, she took this unique birthday gift home.
An origami kitten is not worth a penny in terms of money. However, in Nakamori Akina's opinion, this origami kitten is a precious gift.
Although she has never communicated with Shinichi Iwahashi about gifts, Akina Nakamori can understand that if a person like Shinichi Iwahashi can give away a gift that is not worth a penny, then among the gifts
It must contain precious thoughts.
He is not the kind of person who would play tricks on others.
The cat was so small that Akina Nakamori was worried that it would be lost or crushed. After returning home, she searched for a long time and found a transparent perfume box. She let the cat make a home in it and put the perfume box on the dressing table.
.
How did Iwahashi-san create this cat?
Akina Nakamori sat in front of the dressing table. When she saw the cat, she would think about it from time to time. In order to understand what kind of magic he used, Akina Nakamori bought an origami book.
However, the folding method of the cat in the book and the accompanying picture of the finished product are different from the cat folded by Shinichi Iwahashi. It seems that the folding method he used is not the one on the market.
However, even though she didn't understand his magic, after reading the origami book, Nakamori Akina felt that the art of origami was more interesting than she imagined, so she started learning it.
…
Akina Nakamori will break up with Yukiko Okada in half an hour. At that time, Omoto will pick her up at the cafe and go to Fuji TV to prepare for the recording of the program.
Okada Yukiko also has plans for the next step, "I'm going to Iwahashi-san's recording studio in Yoyogi later."
Nakamori Akina knew that she was working in Iwahashi Shinichi's production company. Okada Yukiko even told her about it like a show off. The retirement gift Iwahashi Shinichi gave her was a Genzo employee ID card.
Perhaps, it was at that time that Nakamori Akina came up with the idea that the less valuable the gift he gave, the more thoughtful it was, after realizing the friendship he had given this gift to Okada Yukiko.
"Iwahashi-san seems to be very busy. I have never met him in the recording studio once. Kuribayashi-san from the recording studio also said that he rarely goes there." Okada Yukiko told Nakamori Akina.
"Although I go to Iwahashi-san's recording studio to work twice a week, but I still have to talk to him on the phone."
When Okada Yukiko talked about Iwahashi Shinichi, Nakamori Akina just listened and barely interrupted. However, she thought of his other identity.
dreamsetrue is in the promotion period, no wonder he is so busy that Yukiko Okada never meets him.
Does Yukiko know that Iwahashi-san is the giraffe man of the band?
An idea came to Nakamori Akina's mind, but she didn't say anything.
…
Kamai Sachiko had a full day off today. The night before, when he returned from work, Okamoto Natsuki was very motivated to think about how to use this day off. The list of plans even included going to Chiba for skiing.
The ultimate arrangement is to go to a field trip or go to Nikko for a day trip.
However, faced with Natsuo Okamoto's plans, Sachiko Kamaike said that she had an appointment the next afternoon and could not go with them.
"That's such a pity." Natsuki Okamoto was a little discouraged, "On such a hot summer day, the only fun thing is to go to the ski resort and have fun."
Chiba Prefecture has spent a huge amount of money to build an artificial ski resort. The slogan is that you don’t have to go too far and you can enjoy the world of ice and snow all year round. The ski resort has not been open for a long time, but now it is very popular.
"Don't say that, Natsuo-chan." A fellow model joked about Kamai Sachiko, "Maybe Sachiko is going on a date that is a hundred times more interesting than going to the ski resort or Nikko."
"Could it be that she secretly had a boyfriend?" Another model said unabashedly.
Suddenly, the eyes of several models looked at Kamai Sachiko with a different meaning.
In such a scene, as long as an outgoing and cheerful person makes a joke with them, they can block their gossip. However, people like Kamai Sachiko who are not good at dealing with them will show an attitude of not knowing how to reply.
, on the contrary, it made the booing people even more excited.
"Sachi-chan can't go, so what are the plans for tomorrow..." Natsuo Okamoto changed the subject almost abruptly, saving Kamai Sachiko from the fire and water of gossip.
"No need to accommodate me." Kamai Sachiko shook her head, thanking Natsuki Okamoto in her heart, but knowing that they all wanted to go to the ski resort, they didn't want to spoil other people's fun, "Just make arrangements, I'll go watch a movie and go shopping by myself
It’ll be nice just to go down the street.”
"That's right." Natsuki Okamoto didn't force it. "The high-end fashion stores are so pleasing to the eye that even one person can spend three hours shopping there."
Kamai Sachiko knew that she really believed that high-end fashion stores had such charm, and was not looking for a way out.
So, today, early in the morning, Natsuki Okamoto and several other models went to the ski resort in Chiba. Sachiko Kamaike went to watch a movie by herself in the morning. After watching the movie, she went to Kinokuniya Bookstore in Shinjuku and had lunch.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, I met Akamatsu Haruko at the cafe where we had arranged to meet.
The two sat for a while and then went to Yoyogi's recording studio together. Iwahashi Shinichi was there this afternoon. The person who called Kamai Sachiko to visit the recording studio again was Akamatsu Haruko, but the person who wanted to see her was Iwahashi.
Shinichi.
Akamatsu Haruko has worked with Iwahashi Shinichi for a long time. Although she cannot guess what the boss is thinking, she does know that he is not the kind of person who would do meaningless things.
After personally monitoring Sachiko Kamaike last time, Sachiko Kamaike had vaguely realized that Shinichi Iwahashi seemed to have fallen in love with Sachiko Kamaike.
If at that time he still only discovered Iwahashi Shinichi's admiration for Kamaike Sachiko, then today he asked Kameike Sachiko to meet for the third time. Akamatsu Haruko was convinced that Iwahashi Shinichi must have some thoughts about her.
In order to realize her dream of being a singer, she became a model even though she was an introvert. This choice made by Sachiko Kamaike is not naive, but such naive determination is often the most difficult to make.
Akamatsu Haruko admired this kind of Sachiko Kamaichi, and she also hoped that Shinichi Iwahashi, who Sachiko regarded as "a person who can make people's dreams come true," would also be able to realize Sachiko Kamaichi's dream.
In addition, she also felt from the bottom of her heart that Sachiko Kamaike was an excellent candidate for the band's new lead singer.
Even though Shinichi Iwahashi no longer pursues her about quitting the band, and he no longer asks her to find a new vocalist, for Akamatsu Haruko, if she cannot fulfill her promise of "finding a suitable vocalist to come back", she will have to remain with her for the rest of her life.
Got a pimple.
For Akamatsu Haruko, after hearing Sachiko Kamaike's audition, she no longer thought she could find someone who could surpass Sachiko Kamaichi.
Even if there really is someone more suitable than Kamai Sachiko, Iwahashi Shinichi and Abnormal cannot wait for her forever. Therefore, she sincerely hopes that Iwahashi Shinichi, who has created miracles time and time again, can come up with some good ideas this time.
To realize Sachiko Kamaike's dream, she fulfills her promise and Abnormal is resurrected.
…
Once she got used to it, she became familiar with it twice. The third time she came to the recording studio, Kamaike Sachiko became much more relaxed.
Seiichiro Kuribayashi is not here today, so Tatsuya Hirakawa is here to stay. When the two girls arrived, Shinichi Iwahashi was discussing something with Tatsuya Hirakawa. There were more than a dozen pieces of sheet music on the table that had been painted over and changed.
.
"welcome."
Seeing the two girls come in, Shinichi Iwahashi put down what he was doing and stood up. After saying hello, he introduced Tatsuya Hirakawa, "This is Kamachi-san."
"ah."
Tatsuya Hirakawa stood up, looked at Sachiko Kamaiike with an inquiring gaze, and nodded, "Hello."
"This Hirakawa-san is the captain of Abnormal." Iwahashi Shinichi briefly mentioned.
Kamai Sachiko had heard Akamatsu Haruko talk about the band she had been in. When she saw Hirakawa Tatsuya, she knew a little about his identity and bowed to him.
Akamatsu Haruko looked at Tatsuya Hirakawa, and from his expression, she realized that Iwahashi Shinichi had told him about Kamaike Sachiko. Not only that, he seemed to be quite interested in Kamaike Sachiko.
"I will show you my skills personally." Iwahashi Shinichi said, walking into the small reception room.
The so-called show of one's skills sounds powerful, but in fact it is just making some instant coffee. However, if the other person takes a step away first, the other three people who stay there will have time to observe each other, greet each other, and communicate appropriately.
Anyway, the leader of Abnormal is Tatsuya Hirakawa. He has a good opinion of Kamai Sachiko's demo tape, but he has never met her in person.
He had not planned to stay in the recording studio until now this afternoon, but Iwahashi Shinichi came over at noon and mentioned that Akamatsu Haruko would bring Kamai Sachiko over later.
In front of Tatsuya Hirakawa, Shinichi Iwahashi admitted readily and told him that he had the idea of letting Sachiko Kamaiike try out Abnormal's new lead singer.
Based on the audition tapes he has listened to, Tatsuya Hirakawa thinks Sachiko Kamaiike is pretty good. However, although Tatsuya Hirakawa laughs at himself and has no discernment about people, when it comes to choosing the lead singer, he must first be in line with the leader's eye.
So, he originally planned to go back but stayed.
"Interview" is still necessary.
"I've listened to Kamachi-san's demo tape."
Tatsuya Hirakawa is not good at words and goes straight to the point when he speaks, "You are very good at singing."
