In the evening, Shinichi Iwahashi, Brother Nakamura, and the band's manager went to meet Miwa-chan's family and have dinner together.
Shinichi Iwahashi, a foreigner, didn’t realize that he had a huge misunderstanding about her until he came to Hokkaido and was invited by Miwa-chan to meet her family for dinner.
That is, the journey from her hometown to Sapporo is about the same as Shinichi Iwahashi's trip from Tokyo to his hometown in Shizuoka.
Previously, Iwahashi Shinichi always thought that Miwa-chan's hometown was a small town not far from Sapporo. When he arrived in Sapporo, he might be invited to have a meal at her house, and then he would be surrounded by neighbors who came to ask for autographs after hearing the news...
…It turned out that he was overthinking.
The real reality is that Miwa-chan's parents and younger brother specially booked a hotel in Sapporo to watch the band's concert, and came to Sapporo one day in advance to have dinner with their daughter, her teammates and staff.
As expected of Hokkaido, which is vast and sparsely populated, except for Sapporo and Hakodate, it has little presence.
By the way, there are also Otaru’s Arms and Asahikawa’s Zoo. Especially the latter, Shinichi Iwahashi is really grateful for their giraffe headband peripherals.
When I came to Hokkaido, I even began to think about it. Next time I go on TV, let Miwa-chan tell me about the origin of the giraffe man - maybe he can also bring goods to Asahikawa Zoo. Of course, the headgear he uses now is no longer
The one Miwa-chan bought for him in the first place was modeled after that headgear and specially customized using special materials.
But having said that, Sapporo Shofu is actively cooperating with Watanabe Manyumi's agency, using the band to hold concerts here to advertise, and shaping Miwa-chan into the light of Hokkaido. From this point of view, where is Miwa-chan's hometown?
Small corners are no longer important.
When it comes to her, people in Tokyo will only think that she is "produced in Hokkaido". Hokkaido people themselves think so too, and feel that she is the pride of Hokkaido. The further away from the center of the city, the stronger the geographical complex, and the scope of "one's own people" also increases.
The bigger.
Hokkaido is a place rich in talents, especially top musicians.
Miyuki Nakajima, Koji Tamaki, Chiharu Matsuyama, Saburo Kitajima, Takashi Hosokawa...the names of all of them are well-known and can be written into the history of pop music in the future, but none of them are from Sapporo.
Having said that, Iwahashi Shinichi is also very close to people from Hokkaido. Miwa-chan and Daikuro Maki are both from Hokkaido.
Daikuro Maki is also an authentic Sapporo lady. When you come to Sapporo, you can also buy snacks produced by her family's food company.
Miwa-chan's parents run a department store in her hometown. The family business is not big, but the family background is not bad. To be honest, she is also a child of a shopping street.
My parents have a very good relationship, and they have two cute younger brothers who are teased by their older sisters every day, but they are still close to each other - this is what Miwa-chan said herself on the way to dinner.
These are completely different from the children in another shopping street.
"My father and mother still walk hand in hand," she said to Shinichi Iwahashi in a show-off manner.
Miwa-chan was very excited to meet her family in a familiar territory. She chatted non-stop and shared her family generously along the way.
Just looking at the carefree look of this little fox, it is obvious that her parents are loving and their family is happy. Compared with her parents walking hand in hand, Iwahashi Shinichi finds it more interesting when Miwa-chan mentions her parents.
, speaking in the spoken language of children.
She is twenty-four years old and still calls her mother "Mother".
The staff who were sitting together in the car lowered their heads and snickered when they heard her way of addressing her. Later, when they met her parents in the hotel, the staff snickered again——
"I told you that you don't need to dress like this, but your father still..." Miwa-chan's mother explained.
However, although he was complaining and his attitude was indeed a bit helpless, he was not ashamed of it at all and was instead generous.
In order to meet for dinner, Miwa-chan's father dressed up like a man coming to a wedding.
This style can raise a daughter like Miwa-chan.
"He's quite handsome." Miwa-chan happily praised her father sincerely.
As a result, Yoshida's father, who had received the support of his daughter, seemed even more energetic. But then, Miwa-chan changed the subject and reminded him, "But don't dress like this when you go to the concert tomorrow."
"Don't worry, I also know that my daughter is not giving a concert." Yoshida's father was reasonable.
Although this sentence would seem a little bit weird to another person. However, when it came from Yoshida's father's mouth and the person listening to it was Miwa-chan, it seemed innocent and interesting.
Listening to this magical conversation, even Iwahashi Shinichi had to try hard not to laugh. However, he never wanted to stay out of it. After Miwa-chan had the magical conversation with her father, she ran over and held Iwahashi Shinichi and Nakamura one by one.
Brother, come over.
"This is Shinichi-kun."
As soon as Miwa-chan was introduced, Iwahashi Shinichi greeted her parents again.
This time, it was Miwa-chan's mother who spoke. She showed a cheerful smile and discussed with Shinichi Iwahashi, "Can we also call you 'Shinichi-kun'? Our Miwa-chan has always been indebted to your care."
Iwahashi Shinichi nodded politely, always feeling that this scene had a strange sense of familiarity. At this time, he raised his eyelids and found that Miwa-chan's younger brother was also looking at him curiously.
Miwa-chan's eyebrows and eyes look like her father's, and her big mouth is inherited from her mother - and she is a bit bigger than her older brother. Her younger brother's eyebrows and eyes look like her mother's, but the lower half of his face looks like someone else's. It's not ugly, but
There is no memory of an ordinary face either.
She has two younger brothers. The older one has started working and is not here today. The second brother who came with her parents this time is her second brother, who is six years younger than her. He is a senior in high school this year and is studying at Kashiwaha High School where her sister went to school.
Kashiwaha High School has a deviation value of 66 and is ranked among the top ten quality high schools in Hokkaido. It is the alma mater of many people in the political and economic circles. Miwa-chan doesn't seem to be very smart, but in fact she has been a top student since she was a child.
His grades are at the top of his grade, he has been the vice president of the student union, his high school entrance exam scores are among the best, and his daily hobby is reading English dictionaries.
...I really can’t see it at all.
This silly character that makes people never think that she is actually a top student is quite powerful to a certain extent.
"This one is Gentleman Sang."
After Miwa-chan introduced Iwahashi Shinichi, she introduced Nakamura-san.
The Yoshida family's parents thanked Shinichi Iwahashi and Nakamura, as well as the band's manager, for taking care of their daughter. Even Yoshida's father, who seems to be in the same vein as Miwa-chan, knows that his daughter's character is definitely
Make the heads around you bigger.
Therefore, this grateful heart is absolutely sincere.
The parents of the Yoshida family have cheerful and informal personalities, and they are shop owners with first-class social skills. After a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere at the dinner became harmonious and relaxed.
To be honest, the most introverted person is Miwa-chan's younger brother who eats silently and listens to other people's conversations. It can be said that while he is eating silently, Iwahashi Shinichi occasionally feels that this boy is looking at him.
"Shinichi-kun, you have been working hard," Miwa-chan's mother said.
Father Yoshida was curious about what it would feel like to wear the giraffe hood, "Will it be boring?"
"Fortunately." Iwahashi Shinichi explained, "During the performance, I wore a custom-made headgear made of special materials, which is more comfortable than the headgear bought outside. Moreover, I also put an ice pack inside."
"A concert takes a long time. What a great man!" Father Yoshida was filled with admiration.
Shin Iwahashi was half speechless, and half didn't know how to react - he was praised for being a man because he performed wearing a hood. Even though it was a compliment, it really didn't make people happy.
He quickly raised his glass and toasted to Father Yoshida.
The parents of the Yoshida family are very warm and kind to their daughter's two teammates. Nakamura brother is also happy, clinking glasses with Yoshida's father. The manager is not a drinker because he has to be responsible for driving later. The manager is responsible for sending the band off.
Members and the parents of the Yoshida family were waiting to be sent back by their son. The boy, who was only eighteen years old, was not allowed to drink.
However, when the parents of the Yoshida family looked at Shinichi Iwahashi, they were not only enthusiastic but also somewhat simple and undisturbingly curious.
This is inevitable. After all, he was Miwa-chan's manager, formed a band for her, helped her sign a contract to debut, put on a hood for her to be a faceless giraffe man, and now he has allowed her to return to her hometown in fine clothes and return to Hokkaido to hold a large-scale concert.
.
From before her debut to now, everything Miwa-chan does and every step she takes has Shinichi Iwahashi behind her.
…
Halfway through the meal, Shinichi Iwahashi looked at the time and left the table to make a phone call.
"Our Iwahashi-san is a very busy man." Brother Nakamura explained to the Yoshida parents with a smile.
Miwa-chan nodded next to her, "That's right~"
However, neither of them mentioned that Shinichi Iwahashi was the president of a record company. His manager would not reveal it. Brother Nakamura didn't mention it because he thought Miwa-chan should have introduced Shinichi Iwahashi to her parents.
But Miwa-chan has actually never mentioned Iwahashi Shinichi's identity other than the Giraffe Man to her family. She doesn't have the consciousness to keep him a secret. She is just pure and simple and doesn't want to mention Iwahashi Shinichi's other identities to others.
identity.
Miwa-chan's younger brother, named Tomoya, stood up at this moment and said, "I'm going to the bathroom." He walked out of the box.
After going to the bathroom to sort things out, he washed his hands and came out. On the way back, Tomoya suddenly came up with the idea that it would be great if he happened to meet Shinichi Iwahashi on the road.
Unfortunately, no.
He stood outside the box and looked inside. His father was happily toasting to Nakamura-san, his sister and mother were talking, and the agent Sang was watching and helping to pour water.
Iwahashi-san hasn't come back yet.
Tomoya thought for a moment and did not go in. Instead, he went back, walked to the stairwell, and went back again. After doing this twice, the waiter noticed him and came over to ask him if he needed anything.
Chiya shook his head repeatedly, "No, it's nothing."
At this moment, Iwahashi Shinichi came back after finishing the phone call. He ran into Miwa-chan's younger brother and was about to say hello to him. The young man showed a happy expression and walked over quickly, "Iwahashi-san!"
When the waiter saw this, he left on his own.
"Hello, Tomoya-kun." Iwahashi Shinichi didn't expect him to be so enthusiastic, and was a little surprised.
After all, this boy had been very quiet all night.
However, as soon as the waiter left, Tomoya's strange enthusiasm disappeared and settled down again. Facing Shinichi Iwahashi, he suddenly felt embarrassed.
Why were you waiting outside for Iwahashi-san just now? Tomoya had a whim, and now he was confused first.
"Is there anything wrong when you come out?" Iwahashi Shinichi asked.
Tomoya shook his head, "I went to the bathroom and just came back."
Iwahashi Shinichi smiled gently at him, "Shall we go back together?"
"Yes." The young man nodded. He didn't even take two steps, but he couldn't hold back and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Iwahashi-san."
Iwahashi Shinichi stopped and looked at him.
"It's nothing..." Tomoya lowered his head and said politely to him like an adult: "Sister, thank you for taking care of me."
Iwahashi Shinichi said "Ah", realizing that this younger brother cared about his sister, and felt that this slightly coy boy was a bit cute.
Although in Tomoya's mind, he thinks that his sister is very good at playing pranks, but she is still an unreasonable and arrogant person who often goes her own way and doesn't look like a sister at all... All in all, she is a guy who is difficult to get along with and has a bad personality.
This Iwahashi-san is really an amazing man for being able to stand up to his sister.
The Yoshida family's standards for "manhood" are so strange.
"However, although my sister has some shortcomings, she is actually a very nice person and has no bad intentions..." Tomoya felt that he should still say a few good words for his sister.
Shinichi Iwahashi was confused and didn't understand what this young man was talking about.
…
It was the Yoshida family who proposed to have dinner together. The place was booked by the Yoshida family, and the bill was sent to Yoshida's father. After having a good meal and wine, the two parties said goodbye and went back to their respective hotels.
Because DREAMS COME TRUE held a concert in Sapporo, audiences from all over the country packed the local hotels in Sapporo. The reason why the airport pick-up was so large during the day was that more than half of the audience came from out of town.
Credit.
The more people come from other places, the less they lack mobility.
When Iwahashi Shinichi returned to the hotel, he got into the bathroom and took a shower. After coming out, he took out his phone book and called the number in Tokyo.
When I came to Sapporo this time, there were still company clerks coming to help with things. However, it was still necessary to contact Tokyo in person to listen and discuss.
After making several calls in a row, I finished what I wanted to say tonight. Iwahashi Shinichi looked at the time and saw that it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. He stretched out and planned to go to bed early and get up early, as there would be a rehearsal tomorrow.
As a result, during this moment, the phone suddenly rang.
Iwahashi Shinichi reacted for a moment, then picked up the receiver and said, "Hello."
A sigh of "Ha~" came from the other end of the phone, and then a familiar voice sounded, "I'm so full, so full. I seem to have eaten too much, Shen Yijun."
"..." Iwahashi Shinichi was speechless.
It was Miwa-chan who was too full to sleep and called him.
