After the fireworks display, Miwa-chan introduced the members of the accompaniment team and dance team participating in the tour to the audience one by one. Those whose names were called walked to the stage amidst the applause of the audience.
Everyone stood in a row.
In the middle was Miwa-chan, one on the left and one on the right, holding the hands of her two teammates. Everyone held hands, and Miwa-chan raised their heads and bowed to the audience together.
The audience responded with warm applause to everyone on stage.
Standing up straight, Miwa-chan waved vigorously to the audience: "Thank you everyone! See you next time!!"
The members of the accompaniment team and dance team left the stage one after another after the curtain call. Only Shinichi Iwahashi and Brother Nakamura stayed with Miwa-chan and waved to the audience with her.
Miwa-chan waved her hands, turned around and hugged Brother Nakamura, then threw herself into Shinichi Iwahashi's arms and hung on him.

After such a high-intensity performance, her costume was soaked, and her whole body was like a steamed bun just taken out of a cage, exuding heat. Iwahashi Shinichi put his arm around her shoulders and felt that her physical strength had reached its limit.
But even so, she was still reluctant to leave the stage, wishing she could extend the night again and again, so that the emptiness after the performance would come later and later.
With this thought in mind, I kept waving to the audience.
…
Under the guidance of the staff, the audience began to leave the venue in an orderly manner.
For outdoor performances, the organizers have to hold their breath from before the start to the end. They are afraid of bad weather before the performance, accidents during the performance, and the audience is afraid of physical exhaustion.
After the performance is over, you must be careful when leaving the venue to avoid a stampede.
Safety is the top priority at all times.
A few years ago, when a punk band held an outdoor concert at Hibiya Outdoor Hall, a stampede occurred in the auditorium, and several spectators died in the accident.
Because of that incident, it triggered a series of criticisms and discussions about outdoor concerts.
Outdoor performances cannot be cancelled, but the band that caused the accident can be pushed out by the industry to put out the fire - no such person will be found in the future.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
"Thank you for your hard work~"
After returning to the backstage, every staff member I met bowed and greeted the three members of the band, as well as the accompanist and dancers who participated in the performance.
After leaving the stage, Miwa-chan exhaled the breath she was holding, and all the energy she showed when she was on the stage was gone. She was almost exhausted and speechless.
Just now, Iwahashi Shin half pulled and half hugged her and took her off the stage.
If you think about it carefully, her endless waving to the audience, which seems to be endless, is actually a manifestation of being extremely tired and unable to think about other things.
Two staff members came over and took Miwa-chan from Shinichi Iwahashi's arms. Immediately afterwards, another staff member carrying water and towels came to Shinichi Iwahashi's side.
Although he spent most of the time on the inside of the main stage, so the physical exertion was not that great, Shinichi Iwahashi was also very tired after performing with a hood on for so long.
He took off his hood and handed it to the staff, took the towel and wiped it quickly.
He took a shower, changed clothes, and went back to his lounge to lie down for a while. When his physical strength was almost restored, the accompanying manager came over to urge him, "Iwahashi-san, this is the routine summary meeting after the performance..."
The summary meeting after the performance is like the end of the performance.
Having just finished such a high-intensity performance, Iwahashi Shinichi had no intention of making a long speech. What’s more, the band’s first performance today was impeccable. It was the first large-scale outdoor concert, and Miwa-chan was not disappointed at all.
The chain also performed surprisingly well.
Her personality, which gets more energetic when there are more people around her, is a perfect match for large-scale outdoor performances.
So, when the twenty people who had performed together on the stage gathered together again for a summary meeting, Shinichi Iwahashi said in short, "Everyone performed very well today! Thank you all! Please keep up the momentum and work hard tomorrow!"
The summary meeting is over!
The staff has already prepared cars to take the performers away from the venue.
Everyone's stomachs were growling with hunger, so they went to eat at a restaurant that had been reserved in advance, and then returned to the hotel. Have a good rest tonight, as we will have to do this again tomorrow.
Of course, if you are in excellent physical condition, it doesn’t hurt to go to a place like Zhongzhou Street together to have a good time afterwards.
Come all come.
Miwa-chan not only had amazing singing skills, but also recovered her physical strength very quickly. After packing her things and getting into the car, she was full of energy again. She sat next to Shinichi Iwabashi and talked closely to him.
“The fireworks tonight are really beautiful!”
"Really?" The concert went well, and Shinichi Iwahashi was also happy, telling her silly things with her.
Miwa-chan nodded vigorously and continued to report to him, "I saw a lot of audience members wearing giraffe antlers in the auditorium~" she said with a smile, "That's interesting!"
Not only that. There are also various audiences wearing bear hats, fox ears, towels with cartoon version of DREAMS COME TRUE support printed on them, and cartoon version of giraffe charms hanging on their bags.
The black-hearted businessman Shinichi Iwahashi wanted to make a big fuss about peripherals, so the band’s peripheral categories were enriched to a certain extent.
However, because the design of the peripherals is cute enough, the audience buys it. The peripherals are inherently profitable. An ordinary folder in a 100-yen store can be worth several times as long as it is printed with something related to the band.
"It's fun to play Diao Wei Ya... Let's prepare for this part next time we hold a concert!"
Miwa-chan kept talking, and Iwahashi Shinichi said "Yeah, yeah" and agreed, "I'll make arrangements next time too."
"I hope it won't rain tomorrow either."
As she spoke, she yawned greatly and tears oozed from the corners of her eyes. She raised her hand and wiped it randomly. She touched Shinichi Iwahashi's shoulder and said, "Because we are DREAMS COME TRUE, so we made a wish.
It will all come true.”
"Yes." Iwahashi Shinichi agreed, "It won't rain tomorrow."
We had barbecue for dinner.
To replenish physical strength, you still have to give it to meat.
During the second half of the meal, people in the private room started to get together in small groups and discuss whether they should go out for a night. Those who felt tired wanted to go back to rest, and those who felt it was a pity not to go out were evenly divided.
Miwa-chan wants to go back directly, but Nakamura-san wants to find another place to have a drink and discuss it with Shinichi Iwahashi.
Iwahashi Shinichi was helpless, so Miwa-chan quietly ran to him and teased maliciously: "Have fun, Shinichi-kun! Please relax and have fun!"
"..."
Iwahashi Shinichi was speechless at her bold words.
Fortunately, we were biting our ears quietly, and there was no amplifier for the people in the box to listen. But on the other hand, thinking about it, two people biting their ears and saying such things was really funny in an indescribable way.
Before Nakamura-san debuted and during tours, he had been to Fukuoka several times, but this was the first time for Shinichi Iwahashi to come here.
However, as the staff inquired in advance, there was no need to worry about stepping on the wrong side of things, and you could just go and have fun in peace. The nightclubs that we visited, the escort girls were of the highest quality, making guests like them who came all the way from Kanto feel at home.
The waitress sitting next to Shinichi Iwahashi had Kudo Shizuka-style bangs, and her voice was slightly muffled at the end, which sounded very cute.
Although there is a suspicion of pretense, it does not make people feel deliberate at all.
At this time of the year, the most popular among female idols is undoubtedly Shizuka Kudo, a former member of the Kitten Club. Not only is she the female idol with the most popular records and the best sales, she is also a trendsetter, leading bartenders in nightclubs across the country to collectively style her hair.
In the TV show, she speaks sincerely, claims to like motorcycles, is suspected of being a bad girl, and has a large number of loyal fans of Bosozoku. Such Shizuka Kudo is unique in the industry and difficult to imitate, but she is deeply loved by people who frequent nightclubs.
.
After all, Nakamura-san can show his face in front of the stage. At this time, as "DREAMS COME TRUE Nakamura-san", he received warm compliments from the hostess.
The man in black, Shinichi Iwahashi, continued to hide his merit and fame, and happily talked to the waitress next to him.
Occasionally, when I heard the waitress asking Brother Nakamura, "That Giraffe-kun...", she would show a smile like a mastermind, and see how Brother Nakamura dealt with this.
There will be a performance tomorrow after all. After drinking at two stalls, it's getting late and everyone is preparing to go back. Besides, when you go out, you don't have to worry about playing too hard and causing a commotion that will be published in a weekly magazine.
…
The weather the next day was pretty good. Look at it like this. The sunny dolls at the Fukuoka venue can be used as a lottery gift for the concert video and given to the lucky audience.
After breakfast, Iwahashi Shinichi was still thinking about going to see the street show in Fukuoka. He just told the agent at the office to "go out for a walk" and went out alone to visit the road show center in Tenjin.
Come and hang out.
Before going there, he prepared a small handful of fifty-yuan and one-hundred-yuan coins in advance, and when he saw a good performance, he put one in the singer's piano case.
Kyushu is far away from Tokyo. However, the arrival of the music band wave has also greatly affected Fukuoka. Teenagers have picked up instruments and formed groups to perform on the streets.
However, Iwahashi Shinichi looked at it for a long time, but even after preparing the coins, he didn't send out a few.
I was discouraged, but it was to be expected. After all, if I occasionally go out for a walk, I would immediately spot an amazing amateur, then I would take out my business card and hand it over to him, asking if he wanted to come with me. This kind of thing would never happen again.
It's quite boring when you think about it.
In the heart of Kyushu's Fukuoka metropolitan area, major companies from Tokyo have basically set up branches here, or have cooperative relationships with local offices. On the streets of the road show, there are more than one or two talent scouts watching.
Those who are so conspicuous that they can be seen at a glance would either have been picked up long ago, or they would have gone to Tokyo to pursue their dreams.
To be honest, in Tokyo, which is full of talents and has a crowded underground music scene, the probability of being able to select good newcomers before big companies take action is higher.
After all, outside of Tokyo, anyone who stands out is particularly conspicuous.
Anyway, you’re in Tenjin, so if you go out for a stroll, you won’t go back empty-handed. If you can’t find a newbie that impresses you, you can still go shopping and bring some Fukuoka specialties back to that paper tiger in Tokyo.
A large-scale tour across the country, visiting major cities in Japan, is like a different kind of trip.
Another fun part of traveling is buying local specialties.
Iwahashi Shinichi was walking around, and before he knew it, he stopped at a small musical instrument store. It wasn't because he wanted to buy some musical instruments as souvenirs here, but because he heard the sound of a piano coming from inside.
It is a piece I have never heard before. It has the smoothness of a professional, and the composition technique is a bit tacky. Not only that, the ups and downs of the melody don't sound like it was written for people to sing, but for performance.
He walked in, and the person playing the piano was a young woman who looked to be about his age.
Hearing someone entering, the young woman immediately stopped and looked at him.
Shinichi Iwahashi felt that he had interrupted the performance, and he apologized a little. He stood there slightly embarrassed, thinking about what to say, but it was the young woman who greeted him first:
"Hello guest, do you need anything?"
Iwahashi Shinichi thought for a while and went to see the piano she was using just now. The young clerk introduced it to him enthusiastically. She was full of energy and gave people the impression of a large dog that can suddenly burst into flames.
"The song I just played..." Shinichi Iwahashi interrupted her.
Hearing him mention this, the young clerk's face turned red and said, "You are laughing at this trivial thing." Looking at this reaction, he really felt that it was not good.
"Is it an original song?"
She nodded, then shook her head, not sure if it was yes or no. At this point, she understood more or less that the person in front of her was not here to buy anything.
Iwahashi Shinichi said that his feelings were "as if they were written by someone with a professional background."
The young clerk couldn't help but look at him, "Did you hear it?"
At this time, two people who looked like a father and son came into the store again. Iwahashi Shinichi signaled the clerk to go to work on hers, and he shuttled between the guitars. This store also sells second-hand guitars.
However, the father and son who just entered the store ended up buying an expensive new piano.
When checking out, Shinichi Iwahashi heard his father say to his son: "When you want to give up such an expensive guitar, just think about how much you spent on it - think twice."
Iwahashi Shinichi was listening and wanted to laugh a little. He felt that this father was a wonderful man.
After sending the father and son away, the clerk came to him again.
The two chatted for a while, and Shinichi Iwahashi learned that her surname was Yoneguang, and that this was a friend's musical instrument store where she came to work part-time. When she was in college, she studied in the Department of Classical Composition at the National University of Music in Tokyo, but her grades were always poor and she graduated.
I haven’t engaged in related work since then.
"Anyway, that's it." Mi Guang told him, "So, I came back to my hometown."
Iwahashi Shin nodded, "That's it."
"Are you also a person with a professional background?" She asked in turn, not to be outdone.
Iwahashi Shinichi shook his head, "I have no connection with the word 'keban'. I am a complete layman."
"Liar?"
Mi Guang joked informally and looked a bit mean with his squinty eyes.
Iwahashi Shinichi didn't mind either, "There's no benefit in telling such a lie."
"That's right." Mi Guang smiled after hearing this, with a gentle expression.
Iwahashi Shinichi thought for a while and took out his business card, "However, even though I'm not from a major, I'm still doing music-related work."
Mi Guang took the business card casually - for some reason, seeing her face, he always felt like she would take out a cigarette from her pocket the next second, light it up, and smoke one.
