September in Tokyo has entered the "remnant summer" season.
It’s still over 30 degrees during the day, but at night the temperature drops to a point where you feel cool, at least you don’t need to turn on the air conditioner when you sleep.
In the clear sky in Tokyo in the afternoon, white clouds dot the blue sky. Occasionally, you can see an airship flying slowly over the city, which looks like a scene in a comic.
His skin tone turned into a healthy wheat color. Naoki Nagayama, wearing a Hawaiian signature floral shirt, walked out of the Tokyo airport carrying a bag and dragging a large suitcase.
"It's another nice day today!"
Not wanting to carry his things and squeeze into the subway, Nagayama Naoki directly called a taxi at the airport and took himself and the salute back to Chiyoda.
Sanzakura-in, which I haven't seen in a month, has become more and more lush outside the fence, and has completely covered the first floor. Only the gray second floor and the black roof can be seen outside.
Two days before coming back, the house had been cleaned by people from the housekeeping company, so when he walked into Sansakura-in, Naoki Nagayama didn't see the house full of dust.
Open the glass partition door of the living room, and the cherry blossom tree in the yard changes its appearance.
The leaves of the tree began to turn either bright yellow or reddish brown, mixed in with some green leaves. Looking from a distance, the colorful flowers looked like some kind of flower tree in full bloom.
"Every time you come back from a long trip, your cherry blossom tree will have some surprises."
However, Nagayama Naoki knew that this was a sign that the leaves were about to fall off.
"The same goes for flowers and leaves. Why do they look so beautiful before they wither? Doesn't it make people even more sad when they wither?"
Naturally, the housekeeping company will not take care of the dry landscape in the yard. The original white sand has turned gray, and a few weeds poked their heads out from the sand and gravel. There is actually moss on the bottom of the landscape stone in the middle.
It is a scenery named "dry", but it is filled with vitality.
The bedroom on the second floor was also neat and clean. Naoki Nagayama put the clothes away and lay down on the bed. He could smell the sunshine on the bedding. It looked like it had been dried yesterday.
Even though I had a nice stay in a hotel in Hawaii, I felt a sense of peace of mind as I lay on the bed in the bedroom of Yamasakura-in.
The piano room has also been cleaned, and constant reading has filled the bookshelves with all kinds of books. The small room is filled with the smell of books.
The piano in the piano room stood quietly in a corner, silently waiting for the player to arrive.
Open the window, the fresh air outside disperses the somewhat turbid air,
After a while, in the Yamazakura courtyard, which had been quiet for more than a month,
The touching melody of "桜色马うころ(When the Sakura Blossoms Are Flying)" came out~
When Nagayama Naoki appeared in the studio, Yoshimura Otomo and Itou Shuichi were both very surprised.
"Naoki-san, you're back?! When did you come back?"
Naoki Nagayama smiled and said: "Hahaha, I came back yesterday afternoon. How was it? I didn't tell you in order to give you a surprise."
"I'm really surprised! Naoki-san has turned a lot darker~" Yoshimura Otomo joked, "But the joy is not necessarily there, you are a guy who has been playing for a month since I went there!"
"Hahaha, am I back? Just spare me~" Nagayama Naoki raised his hands and begged for mercy, and bribed him, "I brought you a gift."
Itou Xiuyi added jealousy beside him: "Then let's see what kind of gift it is!"
"You won't be disappointed!" Naoki Nagayama first took out two men's aloha floral shirts from the bag he was carrying, "First of all, the special floral shirts!"
After saying that, he asked the two of them to put it on and try it on, "How is it? Do you feel the enthusiasm of Hawaii when you put it on?"
Not to mention, Yoshimura Otomo usually dresses up as a serious and old-fashioned social animal, but after putting on a floral shirt, he feels much younger.
Itou Xiu was wearing a floral shirt and said with a smile, "Otomo-san, you should try more bright colors, it looks very suitable~hahaha~"
Yoshimura Otomo seemed very happy, but he still said he was disgusted: "What does it look like wearing it?" Then he squinted at Nagayama Naoki, "Naoki-san, do you want to get rid of us with just a shirt?"
"Of course not. There is also this Hawaiian specialty noni fruit. It is said that eating it can prolong your life. Otomo-san gives it to you. And this special rainbow mint candy, it is delicious. You can give Yui-chan a try~"
"There is also this big bag of macadamia nuts, which can be shared among the employees."
Nagayama Naoki took out a lot of things from his bag, which made Itou Shuichi and Yoshimura Otomo very satisfied. Then Itou Shuichi took the bag of macadamia nuts and shared them with the employees outside.
Yoshimura Otomo was studying the noni fruits, and was so excited by their taste that he backed away: "What does this taste like? Is it really edible?"
"Hahaha, this is similar to durian. It can be eaten raw with salt, cooked or squeezed and juiced with honey. You can try it, maybe you will like it~" Naoki Nagayama really couldn't accept it when he first ate it.
.
"Otomo-san, nothing major happened while I was out, right?"
"If you want to talk about something big, the total box office of "Hachiko Monogatari" has exceeded 2.5 billion, does it count?" Yoshimura Otomo said with a smile.
"Hey, that's really good!" It's already comparable to the total box office of the previous movie. "It looks like it's going to set a record."
"Hahaha, I never thought that Shuyou Pictures could have a record-breaking movie~" Itou Shuichi heard this when he walked in and was very happy, "Maybe he can win the grand prize!"
The three people chatted for a long time about the future achievements of this film, and the office was filled with a happy atmosphere until they heard Ren Boqingshui's enthusiastic voice,
"I heard outside that Naoki-san is back!"
He opened the door and walked in: "Naoki-san, I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm tanned a lot~hahaha~"
This Ren Bo Qingshui actually has the ability to hear people before seeing them like Wang Xifeng, but it's a pity that he is a man with squinting eyes.
However, it seems that I have done a lot in the past month, and I have gained a lot of confidence, and my attitude is much more relaxed than when I first arrived.
"Ah, yes, I just came back from abroad. I basked in the sun every day in Hawaii, so I got tanned naturally."
"Looks healthier too."
"It is also indispensable to exercise in various sports."
After all, the two of them were not familiar with each other. After a few words of greeting, Renbo Qingshui turned to Itou Shuichi and came to him specifically: "Shuichi-san, the actor of that movie has been contacted. Do you want to meet him?"
"Is it so soon? Let's go and see him then." Itou Shuichi looked at Nagayama Naoki, "Naoki-san, do you want to go and see it together?"
"Is it a new movie?" Naoki Nagayama had already heard a lot of information during the previous communication on the phone, "I won't watch it, as long as Shuichi-san thinks it's okay."
In fact, for this kind of movie with investors, the investors will definitely put some actors in. The casting is not so much a matter of whether it is suitable for the movie, but more of a formal compromise.
What is there to see about this kind of thing?
"Okay then." Itou Shuichi didn't say much. This kind of thing happens a lot when filming commercials.
After seeing the two people leaving, Nagayama Naoki and Yoshimura Otomo continued to chat, "Speaking of which, before I left, I said I was going to produce Ito Junko's new song. Are you ready now?"
"Ah, I asked a famous composer in the industry to compose a song, and then asked a producer from Philips Records to produce it." Yoshimura Otomo said with emotion, "It was supposed to be our own producer, but now we have to separate it.
Less money.”
After saying that, he glanced at Naoki Nagayama with pity, but this shameless guy didn't feel anything at all.
"If you want me to continue working, there's no way~"
After saying goodbye to the studio, Naoki Nagayama drove directly out of Tokyo, listening to the powerful rock tapes in the car, and drove all the way towards his hometown.
It took more than 2 hours to return to Shizuoka, and maybe he could catch lunch. Besides, he hadn't forgotten that there was a dog in Shizuoka that had been waiting for him for more than a month~
It is said that the weather in summer is changeable, and it is indeed true. It is clear that the sky is blue and clear with white clouds in the morning, but it turns into low clouds near noon. Even the air at the seaside is full of depressive and restless feeling.
, a feeling of dryness is stuck in the chest and cannot be released.
From the looks of it, there will definitely be thunderstorms in the afternoon.
Driven by the sea breeze, the waves on the shore became more turbulent. The waves hit the coastal rocks and made a snapping sound. Naoki Nagayama in the car was a little ready to move. After learning how to surf in Hawaii, he really wanted to conquer the sea.
The impulse.
Suddenly, the tape in the car finished playing, and my ears were suddenly freed from the noisy melody. On the empty coastal highway, I could only hear the whistling of the wind and the roar of the waves, and I actually felt a sense of relaxation and relaxation.
Nagayama Naoki put down his hand that wanted to change the tape, slowed down the car, admired the blue sea view, and enjoyed the quiet moment.
In a trance, I seemed to hear the ethereal humming again, and that touch of sadness
"Summer is almost over. The sea doesn't seem very peaceful either~"
Naoki Nagayama laughed, why not take this opportunity to make that movie directly? It’s not complicated anyway~
Just on the way home, the next movie is ready!
Finally, I arrived home before lunch. I saw a familiar house and the streets of the small town.
Everyone was eating, until Nagayama Naoki stopped the car at the door, few people on the street noticed.
"Ogasan, I'm back~"
When he called at the door, the first thing he heard was not his mother's response, but a barking sound. Then he saw a white, round thing running towards him, calling continuously from a few steps away.
"Yutaro, stop yelling!" Nagayama Naoki put down the bag in his hand and stretched out his hand, "Don't you recognize me?!"
Hearing the familiar name, Yotaro stopped calling with some hesitation, and then gently sniffed Nagayama Naoki's hand.
As if its identity was confirmed, the dog suddenly became excited and made a happy sound. After rushing towards Nagayama Naoki, it kept jumping around next to him, making it impossible to catch him!
"Naoki, you arrived so quickly~" Mother Nanako walked out of the kitchen, "Didn't you say you arrived in the afternoon?"
"I was in a hurry to come back, so I drove a little faster~" Nagayama Naoki rubbed Yutaro's dog head vigorously, expressing his longing for this guy and having a good time, "Ogasan, what did you feed Yutaro?
He’s actually so fat~”
"It's just leftovers or something like that. Maybe it's because Taro is growing."
Nanako didn't tell the truth. In fact, Tsuruko would feed her once in the morning, once in the afternoon, and her father Nagayama Takeru and brother Nagayama Aoki would also bring back some meat bones and the like from the izakaya in the evening.
Usually when I am bored during the day, I will tease Yingtaro with snacks.
Nagayama Naoki was speechless. When you grow taller, you shouldn't become thinner.
After taking the gifts he brought back and putting them away, Nagayama Naoki and his mother ate the lunch they had just made.
Tsuruko has already gone to school and will not come back for lunch. She originally prepared the dishes for dinner and rice for making sushi, which happened to be eaten by Naoki Nagayama~
After dinner, I chatted with my mother about my experience of traveling abroad.
“Have you learned to surf?”
"Hey, waves below 3 meters are no longer a problem for me!" Naoki Nagayama seemed to be showing off.
"That's really awesome~"
My mother, who lives in a seaside city, doesn't know much about surfing. She is already a relatively skilled surfer.
"I also saw a lot of very interesting scenery in Hawaii. The volcanoes there are a bit different from Mount Fuji."
"."
While chattering, Nagayama Naoki took out Hawaiian handmade soap with bright colors and various floral fragrances.
"This soap is made from Hawaiian coconut palm oil. It is said that because this oil is the closest to the sebum composition of human skin, it will not harm the skin at all and can also make the skin smoother~"
It's anti-oxidant, protects cell membranes, non-toxic and safe, etc. Anyway, it's just a bragging that makes Nanako Nagayama smile.
An hour or two later, Naoki Nagayama finally explained his trip to Hawaii clearly. He was drinking tea and wanted to take a break when he was suddenly reminded by the tea leaves in the cup.
"Ogasan, are there many tea gardens here in Shizuoka?"
"Ah, there are some at the foot of the mountain, but there are more in Qingshui." Nanako Nagayama said, "What's the matter, do you want to buy some tea?"
"Hi, if possible, I would like to buy a tea garden." Nagayama Naoki did not hide it, "I opened a tea house in Tokyo and may need a long-term supply of tea."
"That's it~"
Nagayama Nanako was not surprised that he opened a cafe. After Tsuruko came back, he had already told all about the discotheque that Nagayama Naoki opened in Tokyo.
"Then you might want to go to Qingshui. The tea there is better."
"Hey, I'll go take a look later."
Mother also had to take care of things at home, so Naoki Nagayama took Taro Taro and drove to Qingshui.
The specialty tea of Shizuoka Kiyomizu is called "Shimizu tea". It looks like a needle, has a golden and clear soup color, and has a sweet and slightly bitter taste.
Naoki Nagayama sipped the tea soup in the tea garden and was very satisfied. The golden tea soup, sweet taste and slightly bitter feeling were all in line with his wishes in terms of color and taste.
The tea gardens here seem to be family heirlooms. I wonder if any of them are for sale.
It seems it’s time to contact Ms. Fujita Keiko who has been put on hold for a long time~ This chapter has been completed!
