Chapter 64: Mayu Watanabe's Invitation

At 7:30 a.m. on Sunday, the weather was fine.

Rina Ikoma has already started to get up and clean up. Washing, applying makeup, picking out clothes...... Each of these items is being carried out in earnest. Today is a very important day for her.

"With Mayu-san, huh...... You can't dress too casually...... You can't be too ostentatious...... "Rina Ikoma is thinking carefully about how to dress up today. After all, it was Mayu Watanabe, who was a senior, who personally invited him to go out to play, and he didn't want to leave a bad impression on the other party for the first time.

"Well, that's it. Rina Ikoma chose her clothes, a plain shirt and a women's skirt and leggings, paired with a pair of small black leather boots. It's the best match she's been able to come up with so far.

"Well, yes, yes. Rina Ikoma was very satisfied with her outfit, and she spun around in front of the mirror, nodded and smiled.

"Ahem...... "Rina Ikoma suddenly coughed violently, the cold has not been cured, and some symptoms are still very obvious.

"Hmm, there's no water...... "I picked up the water cup and prepared to drink a little water to make my throat feel better, but it turned out that I had already drunk the water in the large number of cups in the house yesterday, and now I had to go to the activity room outside to get water to drink.

The "It's very deserted......" activity room is not like the usual lively scene, but now the situation is empty, the members who are close to home will use the weekend to go home to live, and the other dormitory members will generally take advantage of the weekend to sleep lazily to make up for the sleep if there is no special notice from school or work, and at this point in time, it is really difficult for anyone to appear here.

"Everyone must be sleeping. Rina Ikoma thought. After taking most of the cup of hot water, he sat alone in the empty activity room, took out his cold medicine from his pocket and ate it. Looking at the clock on the wall showing that the time was eight and ten o'clock, Rina Ikoma sat quietly alone in the activity room. Mayu Watanabe made an appointment with her at ten o'clock in the morning, and there is still plenty of time before now, so Rina Ikoma sits here, slowly, recalling her recent life.

Tired, not only physically, but also mentally. Members have their own blogs, which are required by the operational requirements of the member firms. Although I'm working hard to update it like everyone else, the comments at the bottom are slightly different from others. "Is this the person who surpasses the AKB in big words?", "Hey, what kind of green onion are you?", "Hehe, a country girl from Akita, go back to your hometown!" and other replies are not uncommon. Although Yoshio Konno has also explained and emphasized this problem to the members many times, it is a normal phenomenon in the early stage of the establishment of the group, so you don't have to mind. But obviously, there are many more messages like this in Rina Ikoma than others. Rina Ikoma is not the kind of person who seems to have a big grin personality on the surface, and she is very delicate in her heart. Since announcing that she has become the center of the group, Rina Ikoma has thought about how to do a good job in this center, and she will work hard to learn, so she will silently take a look at other people's opinions and comments on Nogizaka 46 on the blog, under Nogizaka's official website, and on Nogizaka's fan forum from time to time, although these things are not known by anyone, but she has been doing it. The bad remarks she saw, the excessive evaluations, every word pierced her heart like a sword, but she never said anything, she had to silently accept those bad evaluations, and she was doing her best to change, hoping that one day she could tell everyone with actions and be recognized by everyone.

Closing the lid of the phone, Ikoma Rina slowly lay on the table, after a long time, I have become accustomed to it, Ikoma Rina felt a little heavy in her head, and wanted to lie on her stomach like this and close her eyes to relieve for a while.

"Ikoma, Ikoma ......" There was a clear feeling of being slapped on the shoulder, and there was a shouting sound. Rina Ikoma slowly opened her eyes and found that it was Mai Shiraishi calling herself.

"What's the matter, Mai. Rina Ikoma rubbed her eyes, but they still felt a little sore.

"Why did you fall asleep here?...... How about sleeping here, let's go back to the room and sleep. Mai Shiraishi said with concern.

"Oh, no...... Mayou-san asked me to play today, and I seemed to get up a little too early, so I sat here for a while...... As a result, I fell asleep...... Wait! What time is it?" Rina Ikoma suddenly realized that something was wrong, and quickly glanced up at the clock on the wall, which was around nine twenty o'clock.

"It's okay......" Rina Ikoma breathed a sigh of relief, the senior asked for himself for the first time, if he missed the appointment like this, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Are you cured of your cold?" Mai Shiraishi asked when she saw that Ikoma Rina's demeanor was a little erratic.

"It should be fine, speaking of which, I should be ready to go......" Rina Ikoma got up and was about to go out, but when she got up, she didn't stand firm and almost fell, Mai Shiraishi quickly grabbed Rina Ikoma and touched her forehead with her hand.

"It's hot. The touch on his hand told Mai Shiraishi Ikoma Rina about her current body temperature, fever, and the temperature would not be low.

"Are you still going to go like that?" Mai Shiraishi's face was hard to see, with a stern expression.

"Well, the other party is Mayou-san...... Senior ...... Originally, I was about to ask me and Iku-chan.,But there's something about Iku-chan school that I can't go.,Mayou-san invited us for the first time.,An invitation from seniors.,It's hard for us to refuse...... So I have to go. Rina Ikoma said firmly.

Mai Shiraishi somewhat understood. The other party is a senior in the idol industry.,Not long ago, the members of Nogizaka also appeared in her main drama in a cameo role.,It's a good help for the Nogizaka 46 group to promote.,And she also likes the members of Nogizaka.,Especially Ikuta Erika,Rina Ikoma,Hoshino Minami.,I usually chat with them.,Answer a lot of idols' troubles in their lives.。 The invitation of such a senior is indeed a rare opportunity.

"But you're in this body...... Is it okay to be in a state?" Mai Shiraishi looked at Rina Ikoma with some distress.

"It's okay, it's okay, I took the fever reducer and should get better soon. With that, Rina Ikoma took out the fever reducer from his pocket. In fact, she had a premonition that she might have such a situation, and she prepared the medicine in her pocket early in the morning, and if she felt uncomfortable during the game, she would secretly find an opportunity to take advantage of Watanabe Mayu's inattention.

"You're really ......" Mai Shiraishi was a little speechless in distress, so she had to take a water cup to pour out the cold water, and took another cup of hot water, watching Rina Ikoma take the antipyretic medicine, and there was a worried look between her eyebrows.

"Mai, why did you wake up so early today?" Rina Ikoma remembered that if it weren't for Mai Shiraishi waking her up, she might have really overslept and might be late. Today is the weekend, and she is also curious about the reason why Mai Shiraishi wakes up so early.

"It's because there's an announcement...... Otherwise I wouldn't have gotten up so early. Mai Shiraishi sighed, and then said with concern: "Since you can't refuse, pay attention to your body and feel very uncomfortable, just explain it, apologize to Mayou-san and come back early, Mayou-san is not that kind of person, she will understand you." ”

"Uh-huh...... I will. Rina Ikoma nodded, then drank the remaining hot water from the quilt in one go, patted his chest, said that he was fine, and then prepared to go out.

"Wait a minute. Mai Shiraishi stopped Rina Ikoma, who was about to leave.

"What's wrong with Mai?" asked Ikoma Rina as she turned around.

"It's cold, wear this. Mai Shiraishi took her scarf and carefully wrapped it around Rina Ikoma's neck.

"Hmm...... Thank you, Mai Like. Rina Ikoma said with some embarrassment.

"Don't forget what I said, pay attention to your body. Mai Shiraishi said again before leaving.

"Well, I see, I'm leaving. Rina Ikoma waved her hand, put on her mask, and left the activity room and left Nogizaka's dormitory.

"I just hope everything goes well and I come back soon. Mai Shiraishi prayed silently, and then she was still a little uneasy, so she took out her mobile phone and dialed a phone number.

"Moxi Moxi~ Ah, it's Nango-san, it's like this......" Mai Shiraishi dialed Nango's phone, and after briefly explaining the situation to him, Nanxiang Wei said that he understood, and everything was left to him, so Mai Shiraishi put her mind at ease, and also packed up and prepared to go to work.

"Ah, a sackcloth scarf...... It smells a little fragrant. "Akihabara, downstairs of the Don Quixote Building, Rina Ikoma has come to the place that Mayu Watanabe has agreed with in advance, and is waiting for the arrival of the other party.

"Ah, Ikuma-chan (ikoma-chan), have you been here a long time ago? I'm sorry, I'm late. "Mayu Watanabe also came here at this time.

"No, there is no Mayou-san, I've just arrived for a while, Mayou-san, you're really cute today!" Rina Ikoma looked at Mayu Watanabe with a single ponytail and a pink jacket in front of her, and the only adjectives she could think of were cute.

"Hehe, where is it, Ikuma-chan, you are also very cute. It's too cold outside, let's go to the coffee shop I told you about earlier!" Mayu Watanabe suggested.

"Oh! is that the men's coffee shop!" Rina Ikoma visibly got excited.

"Uh-huh, let's go!" Mayu Watanabe smiled and took Rina Ikoma's hand and pulled her forward.
