After seeing that the operations were gone, in the studio, the girls had joys and sorrows, revealing their respective expressions.

Nanase Nishino was lying on his chair sobbing.

Ever since she stepped into the CENTER position, her tears have not stopped.

"Na-chan, don't cry. Takayama and Yuri Saito were on their own, caressing the girl's back: "I've been working hard until now, I should be happy." ”

"I, can I really do it?" Nishino didn't look up, and a voice came from her thin arm: "Standing in the middle just now, I always felt empty in front of me. ”

"It's okay, Nanasai must be fine. ”

Hearing the voice of the fourth person, Nanase Nishino raised his head curiously, and it turned out to be Nanami Hashimoto and Mai Fukagawa.

Fukagawa took out a pack of napkins from his pocket, took out one and handed it to the girl, repeating what Hashimoto had just said, "Nanasa's words will definitely be okay." ”

Nanami Hashimoto smiled and pointed to the tip of her nose: "The blush is all on the nose, it's the same as the clown." ”

"Really!" Nanase Nishino hurriedly took the tissue and carefully wiped his nose.

"And here, here. Hashimoto pointed to his position again, "It's all snot." ”

Nishino hurriedly wiped his snot again, which didn't actually exist.

"Nanamin, don't play tricks on Na-chan, where is the snot? If there were, we would have told her a long time ago. ”

Yuri Saito complained about Hashimoto and squeezed Nishino's ass with the trend: "Na-chan, really! You can't even feel whether you have a snot or not?"

Nana Hashimoto gloated and said, "Na-chan is crying so cutely, even I want to take you into my arms." ”

"I'm sorry. Nishino Nanase apologized repeatedly: "I've caused trouble to everyone, I'm really useless except crying." ”

Hashimoto restrained the smile on his face, squatted down and looked at Nishino: "Na-chan is also a first-term student, and she is also an important member of Nogizaka, so don't let the juniors underestimate it." ”

Seeing Nishino nodding and gradually ceasing to cry, Nanami Hashimoto said softly: "Actually, I used to think about it, why can't I be a CENTER?"

But when I really stood in that position, I realized that in fact, for myself, standing in the No. 2 and No. 4 positions was enough. ”

"Huh?"

Takayama, Saito, Fukagawa, including Nishino, it was the first time to hear Hashimoto's inner straightforwardness, and the opportunity was rare, and several girls listened silently.

"I'm not the kind of person who can resist pressure. Nana Hashimoto laughed self-deprecatingly: "I didn't stand in that position, I didn't know, it turned out that I wasn't as strong as I imagined."

Rina-chan is a CENTER of 5 orders in a row, and I was jealous and complained in the past, but now, all I have left is admiration. ”

She patted Nishino's shoulder lightly, "Dana-chan must be okay because you're much stronger than me." Come on, not just as a member of Nogizaka 46, but as a CENTER that can lead everyone forward!"

AFTER SPEAKING, SHE GOT UP AND MADE A FIGHTING GESTURE TO NISHINO'S FIST, PATTED FUKAGAWA, AND THE TWO OF THEM LEFT THE STUDIO TOGETHER, LEAVING THE THOUGHTFUL NISHINO NANASE TRIO.

That night, as soon as Tian Licheng came home, he found Nanase Nishino curled up on the sofa alone in a daze.

I didn't play games, I didn't read comics, I didn't watch TV, and Nishino exuded a melancholy feeling that was completely different from the usual otaku atmosphere, but fortunately, the girl was on the light, and she didn't have the sense of déjà vu of a ghost movie.

"Congratulations. ”

Tian Licheng said inexplicable words in his usual tone.

"Why?"

"About the single Center. It's almost time. To give. Tian Licheng handed the box in his hand to the girl: "Election condolences." Wheetsuki's wagashi, didn't you tell me last time that you wanted to try it, the taste of a century-old famous restaurant. ”

Waiting for Nishino to take over the box in his hand, Tian Licheng took off his coat with his free hand, took two cups and motioned to the girl: "Do you want to drink some tea?"

Nishino nodded silently.

After a few minutes, she picked up the steaming cup on the coffee table and took a careful sip.

"It's so warm. Her sluggish expression finally came alive, and a happy smile appeared on her face.

Tian Licheng sat beside the girl, his whole body completely relaxed and leaned on the back of the sofa: "I'm angry, right?"

Nishino was surprised and asked, "Why are you angry?"

"I knew early on that you were going to be CENTER, but I didn't tell you. I'm sorry, because I promised to keep it a secret. ”

"It's not like that. The girl shook her head: "I'm not angry with Nata Jun." You've hinted at me several times that I'm actually prepared. Didn't Tian Jun say these things when we first started?"

"Then why do you look listless today. Tian Licheng was a little curious about the reason why the girl was depressed.

"I didn't know what I had to do. Nishino was wearing short-sleeved shorts, hugging his knees, and his two delicate little feet rubbing uneasily: "It's obviously the center of the new single, but I don't even know what the center should look like." ”

"Haha, so cute. Tian Licheng laughed and rubbed a handful of oil on the girl's smooth legs.

The girl slapped his hand away in disgust: "Tian Jun, don't laugh at me." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean you, I said this. Tian Licheng smiled and took out a very beautiful pink pastry from the quaint box: "Chestnut Golden Ball, one of the signboards of Xiaoyue." ”

"Really!" Nishino angrily slapped Tian Licheng's thigh, and the "bang" was clearly audible.

But compared with the eldest lady, the girl's strength can be said to be very gentle.

"Look. Tian Licheng smiled and put things back in place: "It's also Center." ”

Nishino saw that the chestnut gold ball was originally placed in the center of the whole box of pastries.

"But does the chestnut ball necessarily taste better than the others?"

Lao Tian pointed to the light-colored dessert in the upper right corner: "Their Guanglin chrysanthemum, the pie crust Q bomb, inside is a rare white bean paste." ”

"And this, chestnut yokan, red beans are fragrant, but it doesn't have the greasy sweetness of other stores. Among the fruits of the Howling Moon, this is actually my favorite. ”

Tian Licheng switched the positions of the red chestnut yokan and the pink chestnut gold group, and said to Nishino with a smile: "Look, isn't it quite harmonious to change the position? ”

It's still the same taste, it's still the same recipe, Tian Licheng is used to using food as an analogy, which is very in line with Nishino's foodie nature, the girl sits obediently and listens carefully to her boyfriend's opinions.

"As for what the Center should do. Tian Licheng smiled and picked up the chestnut yokan and took a bite: "Hmm~~~ It's delicious, you can taste it too." ”

"Tian Jun, don't interrupt. Nishino couldn't resist that her boyfriend kept sending the fruit to his mouth, half-pushed, half-pushed, half-ate, and took a symbolic bite and couldn't wait to ask, "What the hell should the center do!"

"Just dress yourself up like these fruits and bring out the best in yourself. ”

Tian Licheng picked up the brown sugar fern cake this time: "You see, as long as it is delicious, naturally there are a lot of customers who can't help but want to bite into it." AKB's Maeda, Oshima, Watanabe, and Fingerahara are all good in style, without exception. ”

He handed the small fruit to Nishino's mouth again: "Just make it taste good." As for how the store wants to package and sell it, it is no longer up to the fruits to decide. ”
