The sweet voice came from the stage. The girl idol standing on the stage seemed to be attending a TV show. She devoted herself to singing and sang to her heart's content. She alone turned a simple handshake meeting into a concert in the Tokyo Dome.
.
A debut song "Slow Motion" and a new song "Girl A" respectively show two different styles of sweetness and rebelliousness, with stable breath and ease, and good control over the reaction of the audience.
Fans took advantage of the break in the song to chant rhythmically from the audience: "Akina~Akina~"
The loud sound made half of the people in Silver Valley look sideways.
This is Naoki Nagayama's first time to see Akina's offline live performance. Compared with the previous time in the TV studio, Akina has lost her youthfulness, is more mature and stable, and has more and more fans paying attention to her!
"Ni-chan, Akina-chan is so handsome now!"
Nagayama Tsuruko also shouted with the fans in the audience for a while, while Tsubakiya Kona was very surprised. Did the little girl among the sisters actually become so attractive?
"Yes, Akina-chan is already a famous idol now, and she will become even more popular in the future!"
Nagayama Naoki saw the host starting to preside over the next process, so he said to Tsuruko, "Tsuruko, do you want to go up and shake hands too and scare Akina?"
"Hey, okay, okay! Nai-chan, come too, let's see if Akina-chan still remembers you~"
Hearing this idea, Tsuruko immediately became excited, pulled Xiao Nai and started queuing, but because he was on the outermost edge, he was still at the back of the queue.
As for Nagayama Naoki, there is no queue. There are so many people here and there are some reporters. If they are recognized, it will become news... Hey, Akina-chan's handshake meeting, this is very early.
There are some fan benefits.
At least more than a hundred people arrived at the scene, and it would take more than half an hour to shake hands one by one. Speaking of idols, it is really hard work.
The waiting time was neither long nor short. In the end, Nagayama Naoki even had time to go to the nearby store to buy ice cream to eat, but Tsuruko and the others finally walked onto the stage.
“Mingcai-chan!
!" Tsuruko grabbed Akina's hand and shook it, making the host next to him almost think he had met some extreme fan.
"Tsuruko-chan! Why did you come to Tokyo! And here~"
Akina shouted out happily when she saw it was Tsuruko, which made the host sigh in relief. It turned out to be someone she knew.
Tsuruko quickly explained: "I came to Tokyo during the summer vacation, and I met Akina-chan's handshake while shopping!"
Then he pulled Tsubakiya Xiaona next to him:
"Nai-chan, do you still remember? We saw the cherry blossoms together last year~"
Akina paused after seeing Xiao Nai: "Ah, I remembered, it's Xiao Nai-chan~"
Tsubakiya Kona happily shook Akina's hand: "I didn't expect Akina-chan to have become an idol! Akina-chan's dream has come true~"
"Haha, Arigado~ It's just getting started."
Akina suddenly thought that if Tsuruko, the younger sister, came to Tokyo to go shopping, her brother Naoki would definitely be accompanying her, but there was no one among the people in the queue behind.
Akina glanced around the audience and immediately spotted Naoki Nagayama who was wearing a sunhat and glasses outside the crowd. He was looking towards the stage and was actually eating ice cream. After making eye contact with Akina, he waved
Wave.
"Tsuruko-chan, Nai-chan, wait a moment, I'll come find you after the event is over~"
Because there were still a few fans behind her, Akina didn't talk much. Instead, she whispered beside Tsuruko that she would come back to them after the event.
Then he changed back to his idol's artist face, shook hands with the few remaining fans, and thanked them for their support.
Tsuruko and Konai returned to Naoki Nagayama, still holding Akina's latest record in their hands: "Ni-chan, it's not your fault, this is a signed record that only fans can get!"
"I already have it..." Nagayama Naoki was speechless. When Akina released a new album, she naturally sent him a copy, and of course it was a signed version.
"Hmph! Just wait here for a while, Akina-chan said to come find us after it's over~"
Tsuruko politely took out his and Xiao Nai's portions from the ice cream bag, found a corner to eat and waited.
...
As the handshake meeting ended, Akina Nakamori returned to the stage behind where she was surrounded by staff, and the crowd outside slowly began to disperse.
"Yasuji-san, I remember that you don't have any arrangements for the future, right?" Akina Nakamori asked her agent Okawa Yasuji, "I just met my friends. If there are no arrangements, I would like to get together with them."
"Hi, Akina-chan's schedule for today is over, but she has to go to Nara City early tomorrow morning. It's better to rest early today, Akina-chan, don't play too late."
Yasushi Okawa is a veteran manager, and he has always been strict in managing idols, so this sentence sounds harsh.
"Hey, I got it~"
Although it was a bit uncomfortable for her manager, being able to get together with friends was the most important thing. She put on a mask to cover up, and Akina sneaked out secretly.
After searching around the mall for a while, I discovered that Naoki Nagayama was obviously dressed differently from the others.
...
"Naoki-san~"
Nagayama Naoki was talking to Tsuruko when a super soft voice came from behind. When he looked back, Akina was standing quietly behind a billboard not far away, waving to him.
Naoki Nagayama walked over with Tsuruko and Xiao Nai, dumbfounded: "Akina-chan, why are you so sneaky..."
"Shh!" Akina quickly hid between Tsuruko and Xiaonai, "Naoki-san, don't be so loud. It will be very troublesome if you are recognized!"
That's right. Currently, there are many fans of Akina in this area. If they are recognized, they won't be able to escape.
"Okay, let's go somewhere else first..."
The four of them walked back quickly and quietly, feeling a little relieved after turning a corner.
Seeing that the three girls were all sweating, Naoki Nagayama pulled them into a coffee shop, found a seat in a corner, and sat outside, blocking Akina's appearance with his body.
"Let's take a rest first."
After ordering a few iced drinks, the finally relaxed people started chatting.
"When did Tsuruko-chan come to Tokyo?" Akina Nakamori was finally able to take off her mask, and she asked Tsuruko first.
"Yesterday morning, I took the Shinkansen to Tokyo with Nai-chan. Then I went to see the fireworks display at Jingu Gaien in the evening!"
Tsuruko and Xiaonai began to talk endlessly about the fireworks show last night.
"Hey, did you go to see the fireworks display? I'm so envious~" Akina looked very envious when she heard this.
Tsuruko was a little surprised: "Didn't Akina-chan watch the fireworks display?"
"I don't have time... During this period of time, I have work to do during the fireworks display, so I can only take a look at it from a distance."
"Hey...are idols so busy at work?"
Nagayama Naoki said in a very understanding tone: "Tsuruko-chan, this is because you are ignorant. A rising idol like Akina has work almost every day, either on the way to filming or on the way to the filming location.
~”
"Hahaha, what are Naoki-san talking about?" Akina hit Nagayama Naoki's arm, "It just happened to be during the fireworks display this year."
"By the way, Akina-chan, I saw in the newspaper before that it seems that the new song has really been banned?" Naoki Nagayama thought of the news he saw in the morning.
"Hey, it was indeed banned by NHK." Akina sucked the straw, feeling a little disappointed.
Tsubakiya Kona didn't know much about Akina's songs. When she heard that they were banned, she was very curious: "What's going on? Has "Girl A" been banned?"
"Well, it is said that the lyrics are out of line..." Akina had to say it again.
"Out of line?"
Xiao Nai was even more curious. When she heard the handshake, she didn't feel anything out of the ordinary. She looked at the record in her bag and decided to listen to it again when she went back.
Naoki Nagayama comforted him: "The old-timers at NHK may be too far away from the culture of young people. Has the office made plans for what to do next?"
"The firm has no other solution but to increase its exposure through other channels..." Akina said gloomily, "So there is more work..."
"That's really pitiful~"
Idols have a lot of work to begin with. If it were more, it wouldn't be possible all year round. As expected, it feels like Akina's baby fat has been reduced.
"Do you have any plans for Akina-chan tonight? Do you want to have dinner together?"
"No! It happened that I didn't eat much at noon, and I'm already hungry~" After hearing about the meal, Akina became more energetic. The ice cream and desserts she had eaten at noon had been completely digested, and her stomach began to remind herself.
"Then let's have a good meal tonight to make up for it!" Looking at Hezi and Xiaonai who were listening, "How about Chinese hot pot? Have you tried it?"
As the saying goes, there is no problem that a hot pot meal cannot solve. If there is, then have another meal!
So what if it’s summer, hot pot is more delicious in summer!
"Okay!" X3
"Tsuruko, Xiaonai, have you chosen what you want to buy? If you have chosen, go buy it first, and then we will go find the restaurant!"
After finishing the drinks, Nagayama Naoki originally wanted to take the three of them to buy good things and then go directly to the parking lot. Unexpectedly, Akina, Tsuruko and Xiaonai actually followed the route they came before and started again.
Started shopping....
Looking at the familiar store, Nagayama Naoki was a little speechless:
"I said...Tsuruko, haven't you been to this store before?"
"Yeah, I think one of the clothes inside is very nice, so I asked Akina to help me choose it, can't I?" Tsuruko said aggressively,
Akina smiled secretly at the side. Fortunately, she was wearing a mask, otherwise she would have been recognized in the mall.
"Hi... Miss Tsuruko, please enjoy your shopping..."
"Hey, it sounds like you will pay for the choice of Ni-chan..." Tsuruko turned around and joined the discussion on clothing selection.
Akina is very sensitive to fashion and has already begun to give her opinions on her singing outfits. It is expected that she will slowly start designing her own outfits in the future.
After chatting with Tsuruko and Xiaonai, I still didn't like it, so I ran to the next store I had liked before.
After walking around for more than an hour, Tsuruko and Xiao Nai finally picked out the clothes they liked. Even Akina also bought a piece of clothing.
Fortunately, it took nearly half the time compared to when I first came here.
.......
"Naoki-san, is this car rented?"
After Akina saw the Toyota Century, she realized something was wrong. This was not Naoki's convertible sports car.
Tsuruko was buzzing beside him: "It's a new car! I bought the previous car less than a year ago, but I bought another one. Akina-chan, let me tell you, Naoki Nagayama is a real person.
It’s too extravagant! I can’t live a good life!”
Akina said from the side: "Naoki-san is really good at making money~"
Naoki Nagayama had a black line on his head: "Tsuruko, I bought this so that I can carry you around Tokyo."
Tsuruko opened the car door and said, "Huh, take me? I don't believe it~"
After getting in the car, Tsuruko and Xiaonai were still in the back seat, and Akina sat in the passenger seat.
"Look at this kind of car, the one sitting in the back seat is the boss..." Naoki Nagayama still said that and started the car.
"Haha~" Tsuruko didn't say anything more, but asked Akina, "Akina-chan, is it really so fast to make money if you become a star?"
"Maybe......"
Xiao Mingcai didn't dare to say anything at this time. She originally thought that a monthly salary of 200,000 yuan was already a lot, but the gap with Zhi Shusang was not that big...
"Tsuruko, stop asking blindly, it's very rude~" Nagayama Naoki scolded, "Look at the guide book and see where the nearby Chinese hot pot is."
When he came to Silver Valley to go shopping, Tsuruko had already bought a guide book, which came in handy at this time.
There are a lot of Japanese hot pots in Silver Valley, but there are relatively few Chinese hot pots. Nagayama Naoki found a medium-sized Sichuan hot pot in a residential area.
After parking the car and entering the store, a spicy smell came straight to me. I felt hot even before eating. I followed the waiter to a seat near the back.
The shop owner inside should be from Sichuan. The brand, decoration, and menu are all in a strong Chinese style. At this time, most of the customers in the shop are Chinese.
"Tsuruko and Xiaona can't eat spicy food. Akina-chan, you should eat spicy hot pot, right?" Nagayama Naoki asked, "Are there any taboos?"
"Hi! Not at all."
"Then let's have a mandarin duck pot~"
Nagayama Naoki directly ordered the food in Chinese. He saw that Tsuruko and Xiaonai had no objections, so he ordered some commonly used beef, tripe, mutton and shrimp sliders, plus tofu, green vegetables and other vegetarian dishes.
Akina was surprised at the side: "Naoki-san, you are so proficient in Chinese!"
Tsuruko watched Naoki Nagayama expertly ordering food and said: "My brother suddenly became very good at English. I don't know when he learned Chinese again...I wonder if ET has been transformed!"
Some time ago, the movie "ET" came to Japan, and many people's impressions of aliens have changed dramatically.
"Read more books..." Nagayama Naoki glanced at him, "Don't always watch movies and variety shows..."
Xiao Nai looked at Tsuruko: "Sure enough, your family are all top academics~"
.....
Soon the bottom of the hot pot was served. In the red red soup, chili peppers were floating on it. You can feel the spiciness just by looking at it. The clear soup was made from beef bones and exuded a strong aroma.
, the milky white color is in this era when there is no Sanhuadan milk, you can be sure that the store uses real materials.
Nagayama Naoki helped a few girls who had never had Chinese hot pot prepare the sauce dishes, and then began to teach them how to master the essence of Chinese shabu-shabu.
"With Akina sauce, you only need to rinse the tripe 7 times before it is ready to eat. It is the most crispy at this time!" Naoki Nagayama put the tripe rinsed in the red soup on Akina's plate with a whisk, and then gave it to Tsuruko and
Xiao Nai rinsed it in clear soup.
Akina rolled the beef tripe in red soup in a spicy dish, then put it into her mouth, and then made a sound of "hot, hot, hot...". She wanted to spit it out but couldn't bear it, so she had to suck in the air conditioning.
While chewing heavily, I managed to eat it all.
“It’s really refreshing!”
The spicy taste stimulated the appetite. After learning this, Akina couldn't wait to start simmering the red soup again, while Tsuruko and Xiao Nai opposite also started simmering in the clear soup.
"Cook the louvers for about half a minute~"
"The beef can be taken out when it changes color!" Nagayama Naoki acted as a teacher, "Xianggu needs to cook for a while before eating..."
Next, the beef, louver, mutton, and vegetarian dishes were put into the bottom of the pot one by one.
Even though the store had air-conditioning and spicy milk, several people were still sweating profusely after eating.
