"What?" Iwahashi reacted.

The smile on Yukiko Okada's face became even more cheerful, as if announcing something good to him, and said, "Akina-san also came to see my concert today." ”

Listening to her tone and looking at her expression, Shinichi Iwahashi suddenly realized one thing, Yukiko Okada didn't seem to know about him and Akina Nakamori, which was the reason why he was subconsciously stunned when he heard Akina Nakamori's name.

Akina Nakamori has a good relationship with Yukiko Okada, and if she tells Yukiko Okada that they know each other in private, then Yukiko Okada will definitely talk to him later.

Yukiko Okada didn't ask about it once, and Shinichi Iwahashi guessed that Akina Nakamori hadn't mentioned it to her, so he wouldn't tell Yukiko Okada that he knew Akina Nakamori.

To put it bluntly, this kind of "encounter is fate" relationship, if it is really related, it is also as thin as spider silk.

When Iwahashi Shin thought of this, he looked at the face of Okada Yukiko who didn't know and wanted to introduce the two of them to each other, and suddenly felt very interesting.

So he deliberately didn't reveal the mystery and said, "When I came, I saw the flower basket sent by Ming Cai-san." ”

"Really?" said Yukiko Okada, "In the past, when I had concerts, Akina-san would also send flower baskets. But," she emphasized, "she's here today." If you go to the front, you might sit with her. ”

Iwahashi couldn't help but laugh when he saw her proud and proud look.

Yukiko Okada longs for Akina Nakamori from the bottom of her heart, just like the current woman who longs for Akina Nakamori, and longs for her independence in her career, taste in fashion, beautiful appearance, and mature charm.

Female idols tend to have a majority of male fans, but Akina Nakamori has a large number of female supporters, probably because she has that kind of coveted style that makes people of the same sex yearn for her.

Okada Yukiko longs for Akina Nakamori, and it becomes more and more attractive that Akina Nakamori is a person.

"Really, I'll go to the front. ”

"I wish you all the best for your future performances, Yukiko. Shinichi Iwahashi said to her.

......

Before the official start of the concert, the concert hall was mixed with the sound of talking to each other, the sound of clothes and seats rubbing, and the sound of footsteps entering and exiting the venue, all of which were mixed together to create an atmosphere with elements of tension, anticipation, and excitement.

The 31st was a Thursday, and although it was a weekday, all of the nearly 15,000 seats in the Budokan were sold out. Not only that, but outside the budokan at this moment, there are also a large number of supporters who have not bought tickets and come to listen to the leakage.

It is said that when the tickets for this retirement concert were issued, even the phone was blown up.

The last concert of the idol's career, playing this signboard, is naturally extraordinary. The idol who is still popular is about to retire, not only the fans, but also the audience who have a good impression of her, all want to compete for this last place and watch her figure leave the stage.

Shinichi Iwahashi enters the venue through the stakeholder passage and goes to find his place. He had come a little late, and there were very few people walking around the venue. found a position, and before he could sit down, he saw the person sitting in the seat next to him, and he was stunned at first, and then smiled.

"Hello Nakamori-san. He lowered his voice and greeted her.

Akina Nakamori was unconsciously staring at a corner of the stage, waiting for the show to begin. She came alone, only with the same expectations for the concert as the average audience. When she heard someone greet her, she turned her head and saw that it was Shinichi Iwahashi, but she was not surprised.

When we met at Shimbashi's recording studio before, I already knew that he would come to see Kiko's retirement concert. When I came to the Budokan just now, when I went backstage to talk to Yukiko, Yukiko said to her with a mysterious face, Iwahashi-san is also here today.

"The tickets for Akina-san and the tickets for Iwahashi-san were sent out together, so the seats for the two of them were next to each other. Yukiko Okada said to Akina Nakamori like a storyteller who revealed the mystery at the last moment.

"Really?" Akina Nakamori was slightly stunned when she heard her words.

Further, he realizes that Shinichi Iwahashi never told Yukiko that they actually already knew each other. When Kiko talks to her on the phone, she talks about Shinichi Iwahashi from time to time, but it's used to being the same no matter which side you do.

As a result, it is only now that I find out that in fact, neither of the two sides mentioned this matter to Yukiko.

But now, knowing this, compared to sorry for Yukiko who was in the dark, she subtly felt that this matter was very interesting.

"Imagine" this kind of thing sometimes brings such a bit of a funny accident.

Shinichi Iwahashi sat down in the seat next to her and nodded politely at her. Akina Nakamori had long known from Yukiko Okada that the vacant seat next to her was Shinichi Iwahashi, so she was not surprised.

However, seeing such a gentle face, a feeling of meeting for a long time suddenly welled up in my heart. It's not a "meeting" from the last time we met in the studio to today, but a long time ago.

The first time I met Shinichi Iwahashi was at the venue of the Budokan, and that one was watching Joan Jett's concert.

Thinking of this, Akina Nakamori smiled at him, "Hello, Iwahashi-san." ”

After a brief greeting, the two people sitting next to each other didn't say anything more, silently waiting for the concert to start.

Finally, the lights in the arena dimmed. The venue was filled with cheers of antimidcipation and excitement from the audience, and the audience who had come to witness Yukiko Okada's last performance stood up and waited for the absolute protagonist of the stage tonight.

The atmosphere in the general auditorium is warm, and the stakeholders' seats are still like that, and if you stand up here, it will look eye-catching.

Shinichi Iwahashi remembered that when he went to see Joan Jett's concert for the first time for the music festival, he sat in the Budokan's related seat and could only sit honestly while watching the performance on stage.

After watching the aggrieved concert, the next day, Shinichi Iwahashi sat in the ordinary audience in order to enjoy the concert, and ended up sitting with Akina Nakamori.

Shin Iwahashi thought that he didn't sit in the seat of the relation, especially Akina Nakamori, who went to buy an ordinary seat to watch the concert, probably the same thing as him.

The first time I met Akina Nakamori was at the venue of the Budokan, with two adjacent seats. As soon as Iwahashi thought of this, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Akina Nakamori, who was looking at the stage.

I don't know if she's thinking about the same thing now?

On the stage, the opening before the concert came to an end.

Compared with the concert of rock singers, the concert of an idol singing sweet ballads is not so uncomfortable even if you sit and watch it, but Joan Jett's concert, which was not happy on the first day, has the second day, and you can even make a special trip to see a concert for her. But after today's concert, there will be no second one.

Shinichi Iwahashi thought so and decided to do something.

Akina Nakamori sensed a little movement in the seat next to her, and withdrew her gaze from the stage, slightly stunned.

Shinichi Iwahashi stood up.

Doing so in the relationship seat looks very conspicuous and inappropriate. However, Akina Nakamori came back to her senses and immediately understood the meaning of what he was doing.

She thought about it, did something that didn't seem like she would do it, and stood up.

At the same time as she stood up, the OPENING before the opening ended, and Yukiko Okada, who was wearing a fluttering girlish performance dress and a cheerful smile, sang her debut single "ファースト?? デイト (First date),Stand on the stage。

At this moment, the cheers in the venue were brought to the highest point.

......

"Mizoguchi-san, someone over there is standing up. ”

Noriko Sakai, who was sitting in the stakeholder seat, noticed the two people who stood up at the moment when Yukiko Okada appeared.

"Method, be polite when watching the concert of your predecessors, and don't look left and right. Mizoguchi Shinro looked at the stage with his eyes, but he said so.

His tone is as serious and gentle as his father, but in fact, Sakai Noriko's father will not talk to her so "seriously and gently", but will only use the tone of an extremist, so "serious and gentle" is her imagination of an ideal father.

Being selected by SUNMUSIC to come to Tokyo, Noriko Sakai was happiest because of an agent like Noburo Mizoguchi.

If you change to another girl, you may feel annoyed that you have to be picked on for such trivial things, but Sakai just replied with a "hai" and looked at the stage honestly.

However, in addition to the respect for the "fatherly agent", she will be so obedient, and she also learned from her real father to "obey her father unconditionally".

As long as she is obedient, she will have the opportunity to be praised and rewarded, and this idea has been ingrained in her heart since childhood.

......

On stage, Yukiko Okada completed her opening appearance and began to sing.

Although Sakai Noriko was allowed to concentrate on the stage, Mizoguchi Shinro also subconsciously glanced at the two people who stood up as she said. But, while looking over, the two men who stood up sat down again.

Most of the stakeholders are watching the performance squarely, and if someone is standing, it will block the view of the people behind them, which is a bit rude. Immediately sat down, it seems that these two people are not ignorant of etiquette......

While Mizoguchi Noburo was thinking so, he recognized at a glance that one of the people standing up was Akina Nakamori. After looking at it again, the person who stood up with her was Shinichi Iwahashi, who had just met backstage for the first time.

Akina Nakamori has a good relationship with Yukiko Okada, and Shinro Mizoguchi also knows it. As for Iwahashi Shinichi, he was personally introduced to him by Kiko and was an important friend of Kiko.

Mizoguchi Nobuo's gaze fell back on the stage, and while watching Yukiko's performance, he thought unconsciously.

Shinichi Iwahashi's name is familiar...... What is the origin?

Mizoguchi Nobuhiro couldn't help but think about it twice in his mind, and suddenly realized something, and finally remembered.

Akiko Matsumoto, the champion of "STAR!" who opened the head of the idol transformation artist, is called Shinichi Iwahashi who planned the transformation for her!

The guy who took the lead in playing the orthodox idol is an important friend of Yukiko?

On stage, Yukiko Okada, who has received SUNMUSIC's orthodox idol training, shows her professional side. Mizoguchi Noburo looked at the orthodox idol he was proud of, and his mood was extremely delicate.

......

Mizoguchi Noburo is an idol agent, so the fame of the name Shinichi Iwahashi in other places can't reach his ears, and he who focuses on idols is deeply impressed by his shot at idols.

This guy who broke the rules of traditional idols is really bad!

This reaction is just like the people in the underground music industry who have a lot of respect for him because of the things he did related to the band, but no one knew that he had previously worked as an agent for idols and had ruined a "STAR!" title.

Even if I knew, I'm afraid I'll just clap my hands and say, "It's like Iwahashi-san, it's so interesting!"

The moment Yukiko Okada appeared, Shinichi Iwahashi stood up and applauded her, although it was a bit rude to do this in the relationship seat, but even if he couldn't cheer for her the whole time, at least cheer her on at the beginning.

As he expected, but also a little unexpectedly, Akina Nakamori also stood up with him.

The two of them stood up and applauded Yukiko Okada, and after she started singing, they sat down again so as not to disturb others. After sitting down, they all looked at each other instead of looking at the stage.

Akina Nakamori, who is afraid of causing trouble to others, rarely does this kind of thing. If it were just her, she probably wouldn't have done it anyway. However, when she saw Shin'ichi Iwahashi standing up, she suddenly felt relieved and had the courage to "cause trouble to others".

Her cheeks were slightly hot from excitement and shyness, but she didn't regret it at all.

The two exchanged glances, and from each other's expressions, they realized that they were thinking the same thing.

At this time, Iwahashi Shinichi stretched out his hand and raised his palm at her.

This move made Akina Nakamori smile. But, without hesitation, she reached out and gave him a gentle high-five.

After that, no one spoke again, and they all returned their attention to Yukiko Okada's performance on the stage.

......

This is Yukiko Okada's last concert, and at the same time, it is the first time that Shinichi Iwahashi has seen her concert live.

The final retirement concert was naturally extraordinary, with as many as fifteen costumes for the performance tonight, and even a castle-like dreamy stage was even set up, making Yukiko Okada a princess in her music world.

At the beginning, I also had the dream of becoming an idol.,Overcoming layers of difficulties to join SUNMUSIC.,Although I decided to embark on another path in life.,But at this last concert,Thinking that she won't pick up the microphone again in the future.,Okada Yukiko can't help but feel reluctant.,Halfway through the singing,Singing to the emotional place.,Choked up more than once.。

However, thinking that this is the last concert and there will be no more concerts, in order not to leave regrets, on this stage built for her, in front of the audience who came here for her, I put all my strength into the performance.
