Walking out of the cinema, Yukiko Okada flagged down a taxi.

She cherished the satchel on her lap and rested her hand on it. Here, there is a suicide note.

What I have seen, felt, and thought in the past few years, the distress in my heart, and the "why" that I haven't been able to ask and get an answer to, as well as the incomprehension and sadness of being infatuated with Feng'an but being alienated at the beginning of my love, are all written in it.

The life that is about to end is left with problems and unhappiness.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry......" Hayakawa Asako hung up, feeling overwhelmed.

A program scheduled to be recorded from nine o'clock today, because Yukiko Okada is nowhere to be seen, there is no choice but to apologize to the TV station, and use Yukiko Okada's serious physical discomfort as an excuse to block it.

Fortunately, it was not a live show, but even so, the TV station was still furious when the pigeons were suddenly released.

Thinking that I would go to the TV station in person and apologize to the producer in person, Hayakawa Asako was one head and two big, and blamed Yukiko Okada in his heart, how could he be so willful and cause trouble?!

Hayakawa Asako felt that Yukiko Okada was not as obedient as when she first debuted.

At this time, she was either silent or sullen, and sometimes showed silent resistance, as if the belated period of resistance had arrived. However, Asako Hayakawa didn't expect that she would really suddenly play missing.

I couldn't detect her anomaly - in fact, thinking back to yesterday, Yukiko Okada said once that she didn't want to go to the premiere, and something was wrong at that time. However, when the firm was criticized for poor supervision, Hayakawa Asako did not dare to add fuel to the fire and speak out about the matter.

Hayakawa Asako listed the places that Okada Yukiko might go to and the friends he might visit, and all morning, he was investigating these, for fear of alarming the media, so he could only make secret visits.

While doing this, Hayakawa Asako discovered that Okada had a lack of interpersonal communication, and after three years in Beijing, she had few friends and a few activities.

It's almost noon, and Hayakawa Asako still hasn't found anything. That's when she wondered if Yukiko Okada would go back to her apartment—after all, it was the only place she would stay in Tokyo.

Back to Aoyama's apartment, Hayakawa Asako didn't ring the doorbell and opened the door directly with the key. As soon as I walked in, I saw Yukiko Okada's shoes placed in the entrance. However, before the seizure, she first smelled a strong smell of gas.

Too late to take off her shoes, Asako Hayakawa rushed to the kitchen.

She saw Yukiko Okada lying in the kitchen, her left wrist turned out with a hideous wound.

Hayakawa Asako was dizzy, forced herself to turn off the gas with nausea, and opened all the windows, only then did she come to Yukiko Okada's side and hugged her, "Yukiko!"

Yukiko Okada, who was in his arms, was speaking out of pain because of the pain.

"Ambulance!" was Hayakawa's first reaction.

However, when the emergency call was broadcast, Asako Hayakawa hurriedly called Noburo Mizoguchi to report the incident, and when she heard that she had called an ambulance, Noburo Mizoguchi was sweating profusely.

"When the ambulance comes, it's going to alarm the media, and then it's going to be bad. Mizoguchi said.

When a popular idol commits suicide, once this kind of thing is exposed, the consequences are unimaginable. Mizoguchi Noburo may be right, if Hayakawa Asako had been given a little buffer time, she might not have chosen to call the emergency number.

However, having witnessed Arkiko Okada fall there, Asako Hayakawa couldn't be so calm.

Ginger is old and spicy, Mizoguchi Shinro thought of the point and reminded Hayakawa Asako, "Look in the room and see if there is anything like a suicide note." ”

"Yes!" Hayakawa Asako put down the phone and looked around the room. I didn't look for it, and the envelope with the words suicide note was placed on the kitchen counter.

She reported the situation to Mizoguchi Nobuo, who motioned for her to put away the suicide note first.

In any case, the wood is already in the boat, and we can only save people first, and then find a way to remedy it. An ambulance soon arrived and lifted Yukiko Okada onto a stretcher. Asako Hayakawa took off her blazer, covered her wounds, and followed into the car.

Not only that, but the success rate of this self-ending method is very low, and it may be fortunate that Yukiko Okada does not know this. Although she turned on the gas, because she was found early, she didn't inhale too much, and after being taken to the hospital, she quickly came to her senses, but she only had four stitches on her wrist.

There was a false alarm, and the fear just now turned into a reproach to Yukiko Okada at this moment.

That's how strange people are.

"Yukiko, you really ......"

When Yukiko Okada was taken to the hospital, Shinro Mizoguchi also arrived. On the one hand, he knew that he should not blame her at this time, and on the other hand, he thought that the incident was a manifestation of her unprofessionalism, and he hated her more than steel.

This is a girl discovered by Shinro Mizoguchi with the goal of becoming a "sun goddess", and he bets the next fate of the office on her, but she does this kind of thing.

However, the fate of hundreds of adults who depend on her for food is too heavy.

Okada Yukiko sat on the consultation bed, deaf to everything in the outside world, but she looked nothing on the surface, but her heart was full of fear, and she knew that she had made a big mistake.

Suicide is the strongest resistance that a person can do in this life, but once the suicide attempt fails, the tragic fate will be overwhelmed like never before. Skipping work, making a suicide storm, if you die, these are irrelevant, but since you survive, it has become a big trouble for yourself.

In addition, and most importantly, where is the suicide note that dissected all the heartfelt thoughts, and if it is seen, it will even be made public......

Survival is a human instinct. And now, thinking of this, the short-term joy of life after being rescued from the line of death just now and regaining a new life suddenly vanished, and only the fear of the future remained.

"The situation should be stable, right?" said Shinro Mizoguchi outside the clinic, communicating with the doctor.

"There should be no major physical problems, but it is recommended to stay in the hospital for one night. In addition, there is also an urgent need for attention about Okada-san's psychological state......," the doctor advised.

Mizoguchi Shinro only heard the front "There is nothing wrong with the physical aspect", and he breathed a sigh of relief first. Since his body is no longer important, in order not to attract reporters, he is in charge and is discharged from the hospital directly.

But she didn't dare to let her go back like this now, and in the end, she was taken back to the office of the office.

At this time, the news of Yukiko Okada's suicide attempt had reached the top management of the firm, but whether it was to blame her or express doubts about the reason for the suicide, it was more important to discuss the next steps.

The ambulance picked up Yukiko Okada from Aoyama's apartment, and the movement was so loud that the neighbors must have noticed it, and there were probably many witnesses, and it would definitely be reported to the media at that time. In that case, you have to plan ahead.

Back at the office, Noburo Mizoguchi handed over Yukiko Okada to Asako Hayakawa and went to an impromptu meeting by himself. Before leaving, he called Hayakawa Asako aside, "Where is the suicide note you found?"

"Here. Hayakawa Asako was prepared and handed over the envelope.

Mizoguchi Noburo took the envelope, didn't open it, put it directly into the inner pocket of the suit, and walked to the conference room upstairs. At the meeting, he suggested that the incident be publicized under the guise of a simple gas leak. He didn't say anything about the suicide note.

This suggestion has been echoed, and it is indeed an insurance solution for now.

"Today or tomorrow, there will be a public appearance of Kiko, as long as she stands on the stage well, no rumors will come up. One director added to the plan.

In the conference room, everyone expressed their opinions.

In the office downstairs of the conference room, the company's staff took turns to persuade Yukiko Okada. All kinds of similar words were said over and over again, but she just listened silently, no matter who persuaded her, there was no response.

Finally, the discussion in the conference room ended, and the dust settled on the incident of the person's absence, and a director surnamed Seki came over with Shinro Mizoguchi and announced the results of the meeting to Yukiko Okada.

She listened expressionlessly, trembling in her heart, occupied by a thought - a big disaster, in this way, she would definitely have no face to live again.

Yukiko Okada senses that next, a future that is more cruel than the past awaits her.

If that's the case, it's better to just die.

The girl who has no master of the six gods thought of the most direct way. But this time, she committed suicide not because she wanted to rebel against all this, because she wanted to break free from this sorrow, but because of the fear of what she didn't know next.

"Yukiko," Director Guan said with a serious expression, "the firm has high hopes for you, regards you as a pillar of the future, and does its best to cultivate you, so you should be grateful." If you were so grateful, you wouldn't do such a thing anyway. ”

If this is persuasion, it must be the worst form of persuasion. Yukiko Okada's uneasiness is even heavier.

Thanksgiving?

She also wanted to say thank you with gratitude. However, being the chosen one made her lose herself, and she couldn't say thank you. Nobuo Mizoguchi, who she trusts the most, hates her more than steel, and she should probably say sorry even more.

Toru Minegishi, who used to be gentle and kind, said that getting involved with her was the first trouble in her life, and she couldn't say thank you.

At this time, a person's name came to her mind.

Not long ago, she was the only one who said to her, "Relax and move forward." The person who gave her the purest encouragement in this time.

Yukiko Okada still has a "thank you" that he couldn't say to him.

Director Seki and Nobuo Mizoguchi announced the results and left the office. For a while, only Yukiko Okada and Asako Hayakawa were here, and at this time, Yukiko Okada suddenly spoke, "I'm sorry. ”

"What?" Hayakawa Asako was startled.

"I'm sorry," said Yukiko Okada, "Hayakawa-san, I'm hungry and want something to eat. ”

"That's it?" Hayakawa Asako thought she was going to say something big.

Yukiko Okada nodded shyly, revealing a girlish expression. Asako Hayakawa remembered that before she became the "successor of Seiko Matsuda" and "the next pillar of SUNMUSIC", she was a girl who was only 18 years old.

Get along day and night......

Hayakawa Asako's heart also softened, "I'll go give you a hot bento and I'll be back soon." Let Wada-san just now come in to accompany you, right?"

"I don't like talking to Wada-san. "Okada has Kiko and she is coquettish.

Hayakawa Asako shook her head helplessly, "I can't help you." "Thinking that I won't be going for long, there are people from the office outside, and I want to take the initiative to eat, which is also a manifestation of vitality, so I will follow her.

After Asako Hayakawa walked out of the office, Yukiko Okada's gaze fell on the table. There was a file bag for Asako Hayakawa, and she knew that the agent had always kept the business card case on the outside floor.

At least say thank you.

Yukiko Okada stood up lightly, took out the business card case, and found Shinichi Iwahashi inside. She picked up the earpiece and pressed the button with a serious expression, not even thinking about whether she could connect to it at all.

"Francis, what do you want to say?"

Francis, with a trembling voice, said weakly, "Thank you." ”

After three rings, the phone was connected.

"Hello, I'm the rock bridge made by Watanabe. On the other end, a young voice came.
