When there were only five people left in the final ranking, Takahashi's position had actually lost its suspense.

"5th place...... AKB48…… TeamA…… Takahashi Minami! Uncle Inoue called out the name of the girl next to him.

Minami Takahashi, who got a lot of votes in the flash report, turned out not to have so much food, and finally fell to fifth place, which is not her final ranking, because in the future general election, she will drop more places.

Yasu Akimoto once said that Takahashi Minami represented AKB, and it was unacceptable for her to fall out of Shen Qi and so on, but it turned out that it was not Takahashi Minami who fell out of Shen Qi and the sky fell apart, and the reason why Takahashi Minami really didn't fall out of Shen Qi was actually simply that the latecomers failed to squeeze her down......

Now in the first session, although Mayu has lost the strength to stand in fourth place, but this general election has a more effective Mai Oshima, and Takahashi Minami faces the four people above, which can be said to have no combat effectiveness.

When Uncle Inoue on the stage read out Takahashi's name without surprise to Zhou Xiao, the staff here were also in full swing to prepare for Takahashi Minami, just lying on the stretcher, the girl was wearing the clothes to be worn later, the staff found her shoes, the doctor pulled out the drip in her hand, and another staff member pushed the wheelchair.

This wheelchair was specially sent by Zhou Xiao, and in his opinion, going out in a wheelchair should make Takahashi Minami much easier.

But Minami Takahashi said, "No, I don't need a wheelchair, I can walk out on my own." ”

All the staff looked at Zhou Xiao, and everyone could only listen to him at this time.

"If you go out in a wheelchair, you can have a worker push you, but if you want to walk out standing up, I have to be by your side, what will you choose?" Zhou Xiao asked. If she walked out, Zhou Xiao was really not at ease. The girl's mother was by the side of the two, and he was afraid of what would happen to the girl.

"That'...... Trouble Brother Zhou Xiao! Takahashi Nan hesitated for a moment, but he still persisted and insisted on choosing to go out by himself.

Zhou Xiao glanced at the girl's mother, and after seeing that the other party nodded and agreed, he stretched out a hand and let the girl put it on his arm, and led her slowly towards the stage.

Takahashi Minami's situation, the meals present are all known, and the operation has been notified to the meals through the guò network and the broadcast in the venue, and the meals are ready to be led by others in the fifth place, but they didn't expect the lights. Zhou Xiao walked out slowly with the girl.

The Cinderella miracle of Yami cuisine was already perfect, and the rice broke out with a very huge cheer, but I didn't expect that this time the call of the rice was even greater, and many of the rice were all calling "Takamina", and Zhou Xiao could even feel the more and more intense tremors of the girls around him.

"Calm down!" Zhou Xiao didn't open the microphone and said to Takahashi Nan, now she is definitely not suitable for being so excited.

Slowly walking towards the microphone in the center of the stage, Zhou Xiao's afterglow swept to Yuko Oshima and Atsuko Maeda in the audience. The person who faced such a predicament in her previous life was Yuko Oshima, who was also carried out by the staff, and what she forbade was the same pain as the current Takahashi Minami.

But whether it's Yuko Oshima or the current Minami Takahashi. did not have the slightest intention of giving up, this was the greatest strength that Zhou Xiao felt in them.

Slowly walking to the center of the stage, Minami Takahashi held on to the microphone stand as if grasping a life-saving straw. Zhou Xiao didn't leave, but asked softly, "Can you do it yourself?" ”

"It's okay, Brother Zhou Xiao." The girl whispered.

Zhou Xiao gently let go of the girl and let her stand there by herself, but he himself did not get off the stage, but shouted and stood one step away from the girl and squatted down.

No, not squatting down. Zhou Xiao simply knelt down on one knee!

The fans all took a soft breath, and the scene on the stage at this time was, weak, the little girl holding the microphone, standing there with difficulty, her eyes were full of tears, but through the tears, people saw extremely resolute eyes, and behind her, wearing a suit, a handsome man in his twenties knelt down on one knee to guard her, that scene, as if the princess and the guardian knight behind her!

Of course, Zhou Xiao didn't deliberately play with a concave shape, he just wanted to stay by Takahashinan's side, and the reason why he half-knelt down was mainly to open his eyes, Zhou Xiao was more than one meter eight, Takahashi South was one meter forty-eight, if Zhou Xiao had been standing, there would always be a man in the girl's news release in the future, which would be a little inappropriate, so he would bend down.

As for the reason for taking semi-kneeling instead of other movements, it is also very simple, because at this time, with his clothes and identity, only this posture will be more normal, he can't sit on the ground or squat down like a gangster, right? As for kneeling? Although after so many years, the only thing Zhou Xiao is not used to is kneeling and sitting......

Another point that Zhou Xiao didn't expect was that he was trying his best to avoid entering Takahashi's news, but in the end it was a little self-defeating, after this general election, quite a lot of media gave a photo of Zhou Xiaohan kneeling behind Takahashi Nan, and accompanied by titles such as "Zhou Xiao's knight-like guardian" and "Superstar and director, but willing to be the butler of the girls", which Zhou Xiaoban did not expect at all when he knelt beside Takahashi Nan.

Takahashi Minami's testimonial is actually nothing to say, the girl is at a point where she will faint at any time when she gives a testimonial, in this state, no one can play her level normally, so she just barely thanked the fans, and was slowly walked back to the backstage by Zhou Xiaocong, and behind them, there was an endless stream of applause and cheers from the fans.

Although he just went out and said a few words casually and came back, but the moment Takahashi Nan returned to the backstage, the whole person immediately went limp, and Zhou Xiao, who was quick by his side, helped the girl, he didn't hesitate anymore but picked up the girl, took two steps and gently put her on the stretcher.

"Don't go back to the backstage, go straight to the hospital, I'll go to see her after the work here is over, I've worked hard for her today, and I've worked hard for everyone." Zhou Xiao said.

Takahashi's mother accompanied the doctor to send the girl back to the hospital, while Zhou Xiao turned around, and after packing up his mood, he began to pay attention to the fourth member of the first general election that was about to be announced on the stage.

If you want to talk about the first general election, the only uncertainty for Zhou Xiao is Mai Oshima. And after the quick report and the middle was published, Zhou Xiao knew that Mai Oshima was still a certain distance away from Yuko Oshima and Atsuko Maeda in front of her, and the key now was in the third position, whether Mai Oshima or Mariko Shinoda could stand in the third position, which was a question that Zhou Xiao was most concerned about and looked forward to.

If you want to ask Zhou Xiao's selfishness, in fact, he really doesn't care who can win the third position and who loses, because it's just like what he said to Mayouairi. The most critical thing about the general election is the various tragicomedies that happened around the election, what Zhou Xiao wants to see is the surprise of Ami Cai, the persistence of Takahashi Minami, and the twin stars of Yuko Oshima and Atsuko Maeda, although these are all problems based on the ranking of the general election, but Zhou Xiao really doesn't care what the ranking of the general election is, such as now. Looking at the appearance of the two girls in the audience in the background, what Zhou Xiao really cared about was what kind of expression they would have after the announcement.

"The fourth place is ......" Uncle Inoue's tone also added a hint of excitement and nervousness, in the stands. Countless audience members sat up straight at this moment, and among the members of the audience, Mariko Shinoda and Mai Oshima also quietly breathed a sigh of relief, they knew. Their rankings are either third or fourth, and as for higher positions, the two have no expectations. Because judging from the announcement of the previous two votes, if they want to get more votes than Yuko Oshima, they need at least 500 votes, which is a huge difference from the gap between Amina Sato, Airi Suzuki and Mayu Watanabe, and Maeda, the two estimate that the vote gap between Maeda and Oshima may eventually reach more than 1,000 votes, and the gap is even greater when it comes to themselves.

Who could it be? Both of them are very nervous, although Shinoda and Mai Oshima are both first-term students, they don't have a particularly deep relationship with each other, so they don't have the same thoughts as Mayu and Airi at all, and both of them can't wait to win each other and stand in third place.

Uncle Inoue's announcement reached the most critical point: "AKB48...... TeamA……”

On the backstage monitor, a picture of Shinoda and Mai Oshima appeared.

In the quiet venue, only Uncle Inoue was left alone: "Mai Oshima! ”

"Oooooooooooo The meals were all surprised, in the flash report and the middle of the announcement, Takahashi Minami has always occupied the third position, and Mai Oshima occupies the fourth place behind it, but what I didn't expect is that now Takahashi Minami has fallen to the fifth place, but Mai Oshima still holds the fourth place, which means that the person who really advanced two positions in one breath, and finally stood in the third place, turned out to be Mariko Shinoda!

Mai Oshima, who smiled very reluctantly, came to the stage.

Receiving the trophy from the staff, the girl stood in front of the microphone with a complicated expression and did not make a sound.

After thinking for half a minute, Mai Oshima said slowly, "Actually...... At the beginning of this year, I was thinking about graduating. ”

The girl's first words surprised the rice, but after many meals calmed down, they soon found out that Mai Oshima graduated at the beginning of this year at a good time, because at that time she was very popular, and she had a kind of temperament in the group, so the next question became, why didn't she graduate?

Mai Oshima continued: "But...... My graduation idea was blocked by Brother Zhou Xiao, who said that AKB has more things worth challenging me, AKB has a good future, and my current graduation idea is very inappropriate......

From then on to now, I once doubted Brother Zhou Xiao's words, and I doubted that he would be perfunctory to me......

But...... This fourth-place trophy really taught me one thing, and that is that there are still a lot of things to challenge here. 4th place...... I'm very, very unwilling, I'm not going to graduate, next year, I'm going to make a comeback! ”

"Bang bang bang!" The rice all applauded the girl's words.,Some people are like this.,Pain and frustration may not hit them.,On the contrary, it will make them strong.,Mai Oshima, who once felt that she had lost the challenge in AKB.,Suddenly found that her popularity in the team could only rank fourth.,This made her very unconvinced.,Losing to Maeda Yuko, these two ACE position members are already very angry.,Especially Oshima Yuko.,Outside AKB.,Speaking of AKB's Oshima Island,How many people know Oshima Yuko., The big island of AKB. It's just Mai Oshima.

It's just Oshima, after all, he is a member who is deeply loved by Zhou Xiao and even the operation, and his acting skills and child star status are not incomparable to himself, but what is Shinoda ? A woman who is almost the same as herself, who takes the off-group route and is far less important than herself on the show, actually stepped on her head!? It's unbearable!

Mai Oshima dares not to use any indiscriminate means to deal with Shinoda, now is not the time to put a thumbtack in the other party's shoes, not to mention that Shinoda also has Zhou Xiao's love, and even Shinoda herself is not something she can deal with lightly. AKB's so-called Yuan A, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps, even if they don't seem to be very close to anyone, they never stand in line, or the only one who stands in line is Shinoda who stands next to Zhou Xiao.

After the fourth place was announced, the third place candidate was also announced.

When Uncle Inoue reads: "The third, Mariko Shinoda." The camera lens immediately went to Shinoda in the audience.

The girl's face showed a relieved and relaxed expression, today was a day full of apprehension for her. When the flash report was published in the middle, although Shinoda's results were equally dazzling, girls would always want higher and better grades, so when Uncle Inoue reported the fifth place Takahashi Minami. Although Minami Takahashi, who insisted on coming out to thank her on the stage, still maintained a moderate amount of sympathy and worry on her face, she was quite happy in her heart.

Of course, she didn't be happy to see Minami Takahashi like this, she was happy, but she was just one step closer to the low-level ranking. Even if Minami Takahashi looks like she could fall down at any moment on stage, she's still happy about that, and that's understandable. After all, even if she and Takahashi Minami are friends, it is impossible for them to reach the Cheng dù of best friends, and Takahashi Minami is just in poor health and working hard, and she doesn't really have any terminal illness, so she will be on stage for the last time.

After Takahashi Minami got off the field, facing the third and fourth places, Zhou Xiao's curiosity, Shinoda herself was not very expected, she also knew the ability of Mai Oshima, this is a girl who is difficult to defeat, she is actually ready to appear in the fourth place.

It's just that I didn't expect that after Uncle Inoue pronounced "TeamA" on stage, it was Mai Oshima instead of her Mariko Shinoda who was pronounced next!

Further joy filled her heart, making her smile and start to be moved and grateful.

Mai Oshima on the stage was unwilling, and Shinoda in the audience was actually quietly thinking: "I will never lose to you, not this year, not next year!" ”

Then, when the third place was announced, her own name finally appeared.

A sense of relief.

Shinoda who was still smiling for her ranking just now, but her face changed the moment she stood up, and she found that the handsome and calm she thought she was was all external image and disguise, and she cared about it very much, and she was very grateful for this ranking, because it really proved herself.

Step by step onto the stage, receiving the trophy, she saw the man on the edge of the stage, who was applauding her, that was the maker of AKB48, and also her man, this man never gave her even the slightest preferential treatment, but even so, she still relied on herself to get to this position, which is what makes her the happiest.

"That...... I didn't seem to care much about the election, and I said something inconsequential to make me laugh. But ......" Shinoda said slowly, "When I ask me 'how the election is', I always pretend to be stupid, but in fact, I am very, very uneasy in my heart, I am 23 years old, and it is almost time for AKB to quit, and many people will think the same way."

With such a wonderful position, I still can't believe that I can reach this journey, and I hope that AKB can go further, and thank you very much. ”

After saying this, Shinoda finally couldn't hold back his crying anymore, and Chino Shinobu on the side hurriedly came over to relieve the siege and said: "Even Shinoda Sama, who is known as a poker face, is crying." ”

As for Zhou Xiao, who was watching Shinoda cry on the edge of the stage at this time, he felt a little funny, shouting from the first general election that he was 23 years old and it was time to start thinking about graduation, I am afraid that she would never have thought that she finally left here after participating in the fifth general election and spending more than four years in AKB, right? Shinoda and Kojima are actually of great significance to the history of Japanese idols, because their existence has broadened the profession of idols, which is said to have expired since the age of 25, and may even be counted as an Obasang since the age of 20.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Shinoda on the stage was still gesturing, very shy about crying.

Chino Shinobu ushered Shinoda to the third position and sat down and returned to the host position, so far, AKB48 first general election, the final ranking is only the last two, there will be no other names, everyone's eyes are focused on Maeda and Oshima!

Uncle Inoue cut open the envelope with "Second Place" written on it and opened it gently...... (To be continued......)

PS：hmmmm…… I didn't recommend this collection for Mao, but jumped up every day......
