By the time Shinichi Iwahashi and Akiko Matsumoto also heard the report, the incident had already begun to spread as big news. In the evening, when housewives turned on the TV and minors returned home one after another, the news was broadcast repeatedly, attracting attention across the country.
audience attention.
Regarding the media reports, most people are willing to believe that it is indeed a gas leak. It is hard to believe that an idol who has always been characterized by a pure and innocent smile and who is in the midst of a smooth rise would commit suicide. Unmusic
, notified Yukiko Okada’s family in Nagoya, and Okada’s mother immediately left for Tokyo. When the news started to be broadcast on TV, she had already accompanied her daughter back to her apartment in Aoyama.
When the phone rang, Okada's mother picked up the receiver first. This was to prevent Okada Yukiko from being irritated by receiving an interview call that fished in troubled waters.
Entertainment journalists these days will do anything to grab a topic.
When the other side announced her door, Okada's mother handed the phone to her daughter and said, "This is Minamino Yoko-san." She spoke very softly, as if she was afraid of scaring her daughter.
Okada Yukiko put the receiver to her ear and said, "Yoko-chan."
"Yukiko, how are you now?" Minamino Yoko asked hurriedly, as if pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.
"I'm fine. Don't worry, yoko-chan."
On the other end of the phone, Minano Yoko breathed a sigh of relief, "I was shocked when I saw the news. How could there be a gas leak? ...Fortunately, you are fine."
The concern of friends was like a warm current flowing through her heart, comforting Yukiko Okada.
Minamino Yoko asked a lot of questions on the phone, but she never mentioned that the media reported the incident as a suicide attempt. She made an appointment with Okada Yukiko to go out together during their next vacation.
According to the arrangement of the office, Yukiko Okada returned to work the next day. However, her left wrist received four stitches and the wound was long and hideous. The costume designer had to find a way to cover the wound with accessories.
He immediately appeared in front of the public, and the rumors of suicide were self-defeating. However, Okada Yukiko is a popular idol. Since she insists that everything is safe, she has no time to rest. In this way, not showing her wrists seems a bit awkward.
Attention.
People in the circle had some suspicions in their minds at first, but everyone was smart and no one brought this matter to the table.
On the twelfth day only, an incident occurred when Yukiko Okada and Akina Nakamori met by chance during work breaks.
On this day, the two of them came to the studio of Fuji TV for different jobs.
Both Okada Yukiko and Nakamori Akina participated in "Star! Birth". Okada Yukiko sang Nakamori Akina's debut song in the competition. Later, when they met at work, she also received Nakamori Akina's care.
When she heard that Nakamori Akina was in the next shed, Okada Yukiko wanted to say hello to her. After being reborn, she became more concerned about the relationship between people. Not only that, she also cherished the love she received from others.
The warmth received.
However, before she could go there, senior Akina Nakamori came to her lounge first.
Nowadays, female idols who are somewhat famous work together from time to time, and there are many things going on in places where girls gather. Female idols surrounded by a large number of fans, maybe like middle school girls, go to the bathroom together as proof of a good relationship.
Akina Nakamori cannot understand this way of proving a good relationship, nor does she think it is necessary to integrate into a small group and be a "popular" person. Because of this, she will be regarded as aloof and unsociable by others, so her friends in the circle
Not much.
Kyoko Koizumi, a girl who let herself go at the same time as her, is one, and Yukiko Okada is also one.
I became good friends with Kyoko Koizumi because of our affinity and mutual admiration. But I like Yukiko Okada, probably because she is innocent and unpretentious, and she is still a girl.
The difference is probably that I can express my concerns to the former, but the latter regards me as someone who can express my concerns.
Nakamori Akina was busy with work, and the TV at home had not been turned on for an unknown period of time. Later, she heard from her manager that Okada Yukiko was sent to the emergency room due to a gas leak.
Since we met today, while waiting for the filming, she said hello to her manager and came to see Okada Yukiko.
"Mingcai-san."
"Yukiko, is your health okay?" Akina Nakamori asked.
Okada Yukiko replied: "It's okay now, thank you."
Nakamori Akina is only two years older than Okada Yukiko. If we use rb's calculation of real age, she is still twenty years old. But even so, she is already an undoubted top star.
Okada Yukiko has always admired Nakamori Akina. Although she is the "successor of Seiko Matsuda," she regards Nakamori Akina as her role model and admires her opinions.
Also debuting as an idol, Okada Yukiko couldn't express herself well even if she realized something was wrong. Even if she felt something was inappropriate, she couldn't come up with a convincing solution.
Most idols are accustomed to accepting the company's arrangements without thinking about whether they are suitable or not.
Okada Yukiko can find problems, which is where she is better than most idols, but she cannot solve problems, which is why she has a harder time than most idols because she still has to be honest and obedient even though she clearly feels bad.
Compared with her, Akina Nakamori is someone who can both identify problems and solve them. She will think about whether the plan given by the company is suitable for her, and if it is not suitable, she will think about what changes can be made in it.
Therefore, her personal image can become more and more three-dimensional and cannot be copied.
Because the planning plans can be the same, there can only be one Nakamori Akina.
Yukiko Okada couldn't do these things. So she always felt in her heart that she was an idol and Akina Nakamori was a star.
"I just heard about this from my agent, and I'm very worried about you." Akina Nakamori said, lowering her head and holding her hand.
However, Okada Yukiko suddenly frowned and softly made a sound of pain.
Nakamori Akina let go of her hand and looked at Yukiko Okada carefully. She remembered that her agent also mentioned that the media initially speculated that Yukiko Okada was not simply suffering from gas poisoning, but had attempted suicide.
She hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand and gently placed it on the back of her hand, "Yukiko, you..."
"...That's it, I was discovered by Akina-san." In the evening, Okada Yukiko told Iwahashi Shinichi what happened during the day.
"Seeing Akina-san so worried makes me want to cry."
"Do you have a good relationship with Akina-san?" Shinichi Iwahashi asked her.
"Well, Akina-san is a senior I respect, and I have always been taken care of by her in private." Okada Yukiko said, "Because I am a junior, I have been pampering her a lot."
"I can't imagine Akina-san responding to your coquettishness."
Iwahashi Shinichi was obviously telling the truth, but he made Okada Yukiko laugh. Four days after the incident, her mood gradually stabilized, and she could get a response from her even if she made a small joke.
"What does Akina-san look like in Iwahashi-san's mind?"
"Well, of course he is the most popular star right now." Iwahashi Shinichi was telling the truth, but it sounded like he was being deliberately funny. As expected, every artist has his or her manager.
"I have never met Akina-san, and I can't give you any decent impressions."
"Have you never met Akina-san, Iwahashi-san?"
"Not even once. I am a novice agent who has just entered the industry. I haven't been able to get in touch with such big stars yet."
"Really? However, Akina-san already knows Iwahashi-san's name."
