"Have you already sent the finished products of the second order?" asked Yasuya Akimoto in the office, looking at Kenji Kitagawa.

"We've already scheduled the recording, and the dance side will be ready soon. Please don't worry. Kenji Kitagawa replied.

"Well, I've done a good job of writing the lyrics for the CW song that is not a member of the selection team. Kitagawa, take a look at this list. Yasu Akimoto handed Kenji Kitagawa a list and said.

"Akimoto-san, do you want Marika Ito to be the center of this song?" Kenji Kitagawa had some questions.

"What's wrong? Akimoto said.

"Marika Ito...... The handshake is not the strongest and most outstanding in the selection group, and it is also ...... in appearance It's not the most outstanding, standing at the front, I don't know if I can do it......" Kitagawa Kenji said with some embarrassment.

"You know Ikuta Erika, right? What are your feelings for her?" Akimoto asked the question first.

"Natural, cute, with great potential, talented, and can be classified as a genius. Kitagawa Kenji said something more general, but it was also a very intuitive feeling.

"Because Ikuta has left a deep impression on us from the selection period, both in terms of materials and my own performance, but there are talented people in Nogizaka, not only Ikuta Erika Ah, but there is also a person who is more talented than her, but there is no one in the selection team now. Akimoto said.

"You mean, is that person Ito Marika?" Kitagawa Kenji was a little incredulous, he felt that Ikuta's performance was already very outstanding, and if he could adjust his mentality, she would have a new height. Now that Yasuya Akimoto has made such a high evaluation of Marika Ito, Kenji Kitagawa is a little overwhelmed.

"Piano, ballet, parents are professional designers. That's enough to make her stand out. Akimoto said: "It's a pity that it's just her appearance, so I want to give her a chance." ”

"Well, since you said so, Akimoto-san, Ito should not live up to your expectations. Kitagawa Kenji patted Yasuya Akimoto and said with a sycophant.

"Yumi Wakatsuki, how are you doing lately. Yasu Akimoto continued to ask.

"I worked hard, I was serious, I worked really hard at the handshake, and my grades gradually went up. Kenji Kitagawa replied.

"It seems that it is really a good seedling. Let's see the effect this time, if it goes well, the next order will be for her to go back to the selection. Akimoto Yasushi nodded and said.

"Is it okay now? Wouldn't it be too soon? Kitagawa Kenji asked.

"I think it's okay, the public opinion turmoil is not so serious, let's look at her performance in this list, if she is qualified, she will be given a place in the next selection group. After all, she is also a person with great potential who we are trying to stay, and if it weren't for that, she would be one of the people in the selection. Akimoto said.

"Well, I'll keep an eye on her performance, Akimoto-san. Kitagawa Kenji nodded and said.

"Akimoto-san, AKB's side...... A-chan is ready to announce that the date of graduation is approaching. Kitagawa Kenji opened the folder in his hand, took out a piece of paper and handed it to Yasushi Akimoto.

"Finally, is this day coming? Akimoto muttered a sentence and began to browse the contents of the paper.

"Akimoto-san...... A-chan, really want to ...... Is it?" Kitagawa Kenji asked, with a feeling of regret.

"A-chan has done enough, and since it was her decision, we shouldn't continue to try to keep it this time. Perhaps, A-chan is already tired. This time, let's just follow her wishes, we just need to think about how to help her design and plan this graduation, and don't think about saving things anymore. Akimoto muttered.

"Do you want to tell the other members in advance?" asked Kenji Kitagawa.

"Confidentiality for the time being. I'll talk to Minami Takahashi in advance when I find time, so that she can prepare in advance. As for the others, let's see who A-chan is willing to talk to, so let's not talk to anyone here. Akimoto raised his glasses and said.

"I see. Kitagawa Kenji nodded and continued, "If Takahashi Minami knew about it, he would definitely be very sad...... Those two people, one is the ace of TeamA, and the other is the core of the whole team, and the two have had a good relationship from the beginning, so far, it should be said that they are the two most important pillars of TeamA. ”

"Times will change alternately, and they cannot always be limited to a certain moment, which is an inevitable trend and an inevitable result. Yasushi Akimoto responded.

"That's it for now. Yasushi Akimoto handed the paper back, and Kitagawa Kenji carefully clipped it back into the folder.

"Nogizaka's PV shooting is also urging me to see the finished product as soon as possible. Akimoto Yasushi finally commanded.

"Yes, I'll rush. Kitagawa Kenji bowed slightly and left Yasuya Akimoto's office.

After Kitagawa Kenji left, Yasu Akimoto sat there with his eyes closed and continued to think silently for a long, long time.

"OK, everyone take a break. In the practice room, the members have just mastered the movements of the new dance of Erdan, but because of the difference in their learning ability, there are some differences in the dance progress.

"Good job, Ikoma, you've got it done quickly this time. "Nanliushi took advantage of the recess to come to the members and took the opportunity to comment on each of them.

"Thank you, teacher, I'll keep trying!" said Rina Ikoma with some joy after being complimented.

"Ikuta, you're going to come on, your dance is still .....," Nan Liushi also mentioned.

"Well, I'll try harder, teacher. Ikuta Erika said seriously.

"...... this child?" Nan Liushi was slightly surprised in her heart, according to her impression, what she said like this, Ikuta Erika must be the kind of natural cute and cute answer, this unexpected serious face, Nan Liushi also had an epiphany.

Sure enough, I began to take the idol profession seriously. It seems that the stimulation of the god of good fortune this time is really big for her, and it may achieve the desired result. But this child's talent in dancing is not as outstanding as in other aspects, hehe, it's really good to see her so attentive to dance. Nanliushi thought.

"Nishino, your movements just now are a little unsmooth, maybe there are some problems in the connection. Nanliushi found Nanase Nishino, said it directly, and demonstrated the correct demonstration of the action.

"Uh-huh. I see, teacher. Nishino Nanase nodded seriously.

In fact, Nishino Nanase's dance is already among those in the first echelon of the troupe, which is a common problem for all music teachers, and they will not just be satisfied with the status quo, if they can be more perfect and improved, then there will be more room for improvement. There is no best, only better.

"Hashimoto, are you okay?" Nan Rushi patted Nanami Hashimoto on the shoulder and asked.

"Ah, thank you, teacher...... It's okay, it's okay. Nana Hashimoto said hurriedly.

"Don't push yourself too hard. Nanliushi nodded.

Nanami Hashimoto, who didn't have any dancing foundation before, was not particularly good enough in this area. But she is very serious, very, very serious, with a different kind of seriousness and hard work from others, she is constantly improving, and now she is no longer in the group of people who were incompetent in dancing at the beginning, but her body has always felt bad, Nanliushi knows this very well in his heart.

"Sakurai did a good job and kept it up. Nanliushi praised.

"Thank you, teacher. Reika Sakurai smiled happily, and now there is no emotional haze.

Sakurai Reika, excellent singing and dancing, although not very conspicuous, but the comprehensive major is definitely the best in this group, and Nogizaka's captain will definitely not be a mediocre talent.

"I feel like the teacher is in a good mood today......" Minami Hoshino said secretly to the people around him.

"The teacher has always been very good, I don't think it makes a difference. Rina Ikoma replied.

"Hey, no, no, it's not that the teacher is bad. Hoshino Minami waved her little hand cutely, and then said with a cute smile, "I always feel that my temper is very good today." It's always been gentle~"

"Well, I really haven't reprimanded you loudly today......" Rina Ikoma nodded in agreement.

"Look, I'll just say it's different~ I found out a long time ago~" Hoshino Nan hugged his arms with both hands. Said proudly.

"Haha, Konan, you're amazing!" Rina Ikoma smiled and catered to it.

"Hey, hey. Minami Hoshino smiled sweetly and cutely, while Rina Ikoma looked at her with a doting look on the side.

"Is anyone going to the bathroom? are you going to be together?" Mai Shiraishi asked, and sure enough, Matsumura was the first to raise her hand.

Sha Youli ...... Didn't you just go there once before class?" said Nanami Hashimoto embarrassedly.

"Hmm...... Is there one?" Matsumura Sayuri pouted and tilted his head to think about it, and then said with a smile: "I forgot, so I should go again with Mai~"

"Uh...... Okay" Nanami Hashimoto shook her head helplessly, this guy's brain circuit is always like this sometimes, which seems different from normal people......

"I'll go too!" said Hana Nakata as she raised her hand.

"And me. Yuri Saito also said that he would go.

"Na-chan, let's go too?" Takayama asked Nanase Nishino, who was sitting next to her.

"Hmm. Nanase Nishino nodded and stood up as well.

"Lily Niang, aren't you going?" Takayama Ichimi also invited Sayuri Inoue on the side.

"No, no, no. Sayuri Inoue shook her head.

"Oh, Na-chan is going too, then I'll go too!" Seeing that Nanase Nishino also stood up, Rina Ikoma couldn't sit still.

"Then let's go!" Mai Shiraishi took the lead and led the many members to set off to the toilet.

"Is it really okay to go to so many people at the same time? It's impossible to go to the toilet at the same time....." Nana Hashimoto complained after the others left, causing Reika Sakurai on the side to laugh.

"Hey, where have all the people gone?" Erika Ikuta, who had been thinking seriously about dance teaching just now, then reacted, and everyone was gone.

"They all went to the bathroom. Nana Hashimoto said helplessly: "Are you going to Yiku-chan too?"

"I see. I'm not going. Ikuta Erika nodded, and then began to gesture with her hand, while carefully studying the position change chart of the dance.

"Yiku-chan, it's changed. Nana Hashimoto didn't think about it.
