"Sister Mariko, Cangzhen, long time no see."

On the night of returning to Tokyo from Hokkaido, before they had time to rest, they were dragged by the Shinoda siblings to a sushi restaurant to "discuss important matters".

In front of him were eight or nine business projects – ranging from the news "Sukiri" to "Zip! to the talk category of "Scatterism", "Chatter 007", and even the "notorious" "Downtown of the Dawn of the Water" in the industry.

First of all, there is no "Nogizaka Fortification" that he expected, and it seems that the operation there is still waiting and seeing, so there is no need to take the risk of direct cooperation.

Secondly, as expected, he did not participate in these groups as the main servant, most of them were to record a VTR in one of the links, or to take the stage for a moment to make a difference. However, these opportunities for high-rated fan groups are already very rare for his current identity, and they can be regarded as a light stain.

- Now that the popularity of that video has gradually decreased, and the veil of mystery has been maintained for a long time, he also needs to borrow some fan groups to mention his exposure rate in a timely manner.

"—What's the matter, provocative?"

Shinoda asked indistinctly as he picked up a salmon roe warship and put it in his mouth.

Qiu Yang was busy looking at this pile of projects, and he had no appetite for food. Looking at the two sisters and brothers who were only interested in feasting, he began to wonder if the two of them had deliberately chosen to discuss during dinner.

"I've picked it, let's do these three first."

He handed over a thin stack.

"'Dawn of Water'?" Shinoda Aoma seemed a little surprised. "I really didn't expect you to accept this right now."

The show is based on the theme of testing all sorts of strange hypotheses, and the core MC is downtown, a group of experienced comedy artists, who are often known for their large scale and nonsensical jokes. There is even a precedent of being called to the police by passers-by because it looks too much like a crime scene during the process of covert recording.

"I used to read this when I was in college, and it can be regarded as a dream come true." Qiu Yang told the truth.

"What's more, the part that requires my participation is not particularly funny."

The hypothesis that he needs to appear is also related to the University of Tokyo - "Tourists who take a group photo at the Chimen Gate of the University of Tokyo will not be able to pass the University hypothesis 100%".

He will appear as a counterexample of the game-breaking hypothesis, and send a vicious complaint, which can be regarded as a stable superficial character of "abstinence idol".

The other is an ordinary talk variety show, he only needs to make a background board in the dark and full of guests, and do a reaction to change some shots.

"It's very smart, I didn't choose a news interview group." Mariko Shinoda glanced at Qiu Yang's three choices hastily, with a look of approval. "It's true that you're not at the point where you need to be dissected by news program conversations, and it's important that your persona maintains a proper sense of mystery for the audience."

Seeing Qiu Yang's last choice, Shinoda Cangzhen smiled knowingly.

"I thought you'd avoid suspicion and not choose this."

"Then how can this project be put in front of me, it means that it is also a temptation over there, right?"

"That's right."

Shinoda Cangzhen picked up his wine glass and touched Qiu Yang, he enjoyed getting along with someone as understanding as Qiu Yang very much, and many things didn't have to be explained.

"But this recording time is also relatively rushed, you are going to record in the next two days, is it okay?"

"What does it matter?"

Qiu Yang took a sip and asked a little strangely.

"I've finished the project and the report in the past two days, so I've been on vacation for the past few days, right? Big brother, I just stayed up all night, so I've got to rest for a few days. ”

"I'm sorry to tell you, no."

Shinoda Aoma is doing the same trick again, and he is dangling with the three plans in his hand.

"What's the matter..."

Qiu Yang held his forehead, he was already a little used to being tortured by this little devil.

"It's not work this time...... Well, if it's a job, it's a job. ”

He took out a poster that had been made and handed it to Qiu Yang.

- "Valentine's Day performance, let's meet your favorite person!" ”

The person in the middle of the picture is all too familiar to him - not Shinoda, but himself in the group, who is plucking the guitar with his head down.

"What are you doing here...... Isn't this a portrait rights violation? ”

"On the issue of portrait rights, you signed the relevant regulations when you joined the ministry."

Shinoda Cangzhen smiled innocently, harmless to humans and animals.

"Look, we all have you as the main player of this live, if you don't participate, we will be cheating."

This just forced him to the point where he couldn't refuse, Qiu Yang sighed.

"It's okay to participate...... But in such a short period of time, I don't have any dancing foundation, and I can't guarantee that it will have any effect. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I don't need you to dance this time." Shinoda waved his hand.

"You just need to sing the finale of "It's Hard for a Strong Man" just like in the group, and at most add an opening, then it depends on whether you can pull out the second song in the next few days."

"Okay, then I'll do my best..."

As if remembering something, Qiu Yang suddenly took out his mobile phone, crackling and typing something, while asking.

"—Huh? Number 13? Why number 13? Isn't Valentine's Day the 14th? ”

"Because everyone has their own arrangements on the 14th - at least I am, so how can I have time to do any performances."

Shinoda Cangzhen smiled a little meaningfully, and his eyes swept over the mobile phone in Qiu Yang's hand as if he were nothing.

"-Qiu Yangsang will definitely not be idle that day, right?"

……

……

"So, does Nanami like him too?"

At the invitation of Nanami Hashimoto, Asuka Saito arrived a little later.

As soon as he sat down for the first sentence, the startled Nana Hashimoto almost didn't squirt out a mouthful of water.

"Azuka ......"

"Nanamin, are you in love with Qiu Yang?"

Asuka Saito's eyes were very firm, and she looked straight at Nanami Hashimoto, which made her subconsciously want to dodge.

"Hmm... Maybe yes. ”

Although she didn't dare to look at Asuka, she didn't feel that there was anything to admit it.

"That's ......"

Asuka Saito seemed to be deflated all of a sudden, lowered his head, and the momentum just now seemed to disappear all at once.

Nana Hashimoto is still a little guilty, after all, if it weren't for the intervention of the operation, he would be more or less a third party.

What's more, he is still in a state of being close to the water and getting the moon first.

"Asuka, I'm ......"

"—When did Nanami fall in love with it..."

The bird suddenly asked again.

"I don't know, maybe ......"

"- Azuka, I liked it a long time ago!"

Asuka Saito's voice suddenly rose, which somewhat aroused Hashimoto's competitive spirit.

"Not necessarily!"

"Yo-chan is Asuka, my neighbor, eh! We all looked down and didn't look up to see it, and we must have liked it naturally very early! ”

"But I'm also his first few friends after coming to Neon, and we also keep in touch every day!"

"Just LINE contact! We are all every day, online, down, chatting, day! ”

"Ahh Nana Hashimoto's tone was somewhat sour, "But at the beginning, I went to talk to Yang-chan, oh, if I say it hard, I liked it at that time!" ”

She had never called Qiu Yang like that, and she was a little unaccustomed and ashamed to suddenly change her words like this.

"Woo - Nana Min is cunning!"

“……”

The two of them argued for a while, then suddenly stopped, looked at each other, and suddenly laughed at the same time.

The tense atmosphere is only half-truths, and the long and strong bond between the two will not hurt because of a boy who suddenly appears.

"Nanamin."

Asuka Saito suddenly called Nanami Hashimoto's name.

"Huh?"

"Although I like Nanami the most, and I also think Nanami is very powerful, and she is better than me everywhere......"

Asuka Saito's voice suddenly became a little stubborn.

"—but I'm not going to lose."

Nanami Hashimoto looked at Asuka Saito, who was looking down and fiddling with his fingers, as if he was a little embarrassed, and suddenly recalled the one who had been around him back then, and said with a smile, "Nanami Min is my wife!" "The sweet bird.

- You've really grown up, Asuka.

"Okay, Azuka won't lose, won't lose......"

Nana Hashimoto was like coaxing a child, and habitually wanted to rub the bird's head - but was unexpectedly dodged.

Her hand hung awkwardly there, neither receiving nor entering.

"Nanamin, don't try to please me!"

Asuka Saito was a little angry.

"I'm not that kid! I'm declaring war on Nanamin! Declare war! ”

It was when the atmosphere was awkward that Nana Hashimoto's mobile phone suddenly rang - there was a new line message.

"From Qiu Yang: Nanamin, are you there?"

Asuka Saito glanced at it casually, and there was a little fried hair - no matter how much Nana Min liked Qiu Yang, it was also a matter of Nana Min's direction. But now, Qiu Yang actually called Nanami so affectionately, which made her feel a strong sense of crisis.

- Humph! Scumbag!

The message continued to pop up again.

"There will be a performance of the idol club in two days, and I will participate."

"It's February 13th."

Asuka Saito is a little jealous again - is this a building near the water? Can't you even know this kind of information directly?

But the next news completely dispelled her resentment.

"—though I know it's bad, can you, tell Asuka ......"

"I know it's possible, it's a little offensive to Nanamin, and although I would love you to come and see it, I still want you to tell Asuka about it, and I would love her to come and see my first performance."

Seeing the news, Nanami Hashimoto picked up his phone and didn't let the bird look at it anymore.

"Hey! Nanamin! Excessive! ”

"What! You've seen the message! Don't snoop on your privacy! ”

"Woo......"

Asuka Saito was a little discouraged on his beak, but his heart blossomed with joy, and he stopped pestering.

- What! Nanamin is just a tool man! In Qiu Yang's heart, sure enough, I'm still the only one!

Nanami Hashimoto was really a little sad - her attitude that night, she didn't believe that Qiu Yang didn't notice it. But on this basis, he still treats her like this, which is also an attitude in itself.

That one still continues to be haired.

"Then, if she wants to meet me, I'll wait for her at my house in Asakusa after the show, she knows the location."

- What, what the hell do you want to do, I wonder if this is a crime against the wind?

"Qiu Yang."

She was a little dissatisfied, and directly typed his name on the screen.

“… Well? ”

"Can I come then?"

“…… Of course, I had invited Nanami as well. ”

"Okay, then I'll inform Azuka."

"Well, thank you very much."

Nana Hashimoto didn't turn off the phone screen, and looked up at Asuka, she was looking proud that she couldn't hide it, and her heart was unhappy for no reason.

"Nanamin, if I wasn't in front of you today." Asuka Saito asked suddenly.

"Will you tell me this?"

Nana Hashimoto lowered her head and thought for a moment.

"Yes."

She had an idol-like, standard smile.

"I'll tell Asuka."

"I knew it was like that, Nanami was the best!"

Asuka Saito smiled brightly, which made Hashimoto feel a little weak.

"Eat meat, eat meat! On that day, let's go watch Qiu Yang's live together! ”

"Hmmm! I'll go with Nanamin! ”

The barbecue is shiny with oil, and the pleasure of feasting on it hides a bit of the guilt that Nana Hashimoto did not hide.

- Love is always selfish, isn't it?

She comforted herself.
