Chapter 50: Deadly Gossip
"What's going on..."
Asuka Saito kept refreshing his phone, looked at the "no new news" that appeared again, sighed heavily in disappointment, and listlessly turned off the screen and put it back in his bag.
- Obviously today is Valentine's Day, but Qiu Yang can't read it all day, what does it mean?
"Azukasan, what's wrong?"
Hayakawa Seilai, who was packing his belongings on the side, heard her sigh and took the initiative to come over to greet her.
Ever since she had spoken to the operator that day, Asuka Saito had clearly felt that the focus of the work she had given her had slowly shifted. The recent announcements are mainly based on some marginal groups on the juniors with the fourth phase.
For example, now, she has just finished with Hayakawa and Sakura, and the evening Valentine's Day SP broadcast is broadcast.
"Uh... Nothing. β
Asuka Saito's eyes were a little evasive, I don't know why, since the last chance encounter in the backstage of the Todai Theater, she always felt that Hayakawa Seilai, a junior, revealed some dangerous and unpredictable aura.
"It's okay, if you have any troubles, you can tell the saint about it, after all, I have been taken care of by Asu Kasan during this time."
Hayakawa Seilai frowned slightly, looking aggrieved, which made it difficult to hate and doubt.
"Well......"
The little bird always has a little soft ears, and besides, she really wants to hear the opinions and opinions of young people nowadays.
- Besides, Hayakawa is more or less "one of his own", right? After all, they are also accomplices in watching something that is vaguely illegal like going live.
The bird, who had already taken some of his guard, sneaked a peek at Sakura's movements not far away, quietly lowered his voice, and leaned towards Hayakawa's ear.
"I have a friend who ha, she... She has a friend of the opposite sex who hasn't replied to her messages, but has read them all. It's been twenty-four hours now, and you say that shows something. β
After Saito Asuka finished speaking, she observed Hayakawa Seirai's reaction with some weakness, because she felt that the excuse she had come up with on the spot was really tricky.
Surprisingly, Han Han didn't seem to care much about it, but frowned and thought seriously for her.
- It's really nice that the person in front of you is a stupid person! The bird couldn't help but think so.
"Well...... I think it's probably a sign that you don't want to be connected anymore? β
However, what Hayakawa said after thinking about it seriously made her a little unacceptable.
"Uhhhhhh
Asuka Saito forced down the tremor in her voice.
"Really? Why? β
"Look, that friend of Asu Kasan has sent so many messages, and that friend of the opposite sex has read them all, but he hasn't replied, it means that the other party doesn't want to contact him further, right?"
"My brother said that boys are very simple, and if someone who has a crush on you doesn't wait for you to go to him, he will try his best to contact you. But if he doesn't feel for you anymore, he won't bother to reply no matter how much you post. β
Hayakawa shook his little head, looking like his head was Tao, and stuck out his little tongue when he finished speaking.
"Of course, I'm also deducing, but it depends on what Azukasan's friend thinks."
Asuka Saito's mind is already in a mess - is that really the case? However, it seems that Qiu Yang was trying his best to get close to him, right? Looking at what the letter said, he entered the idol department and tried to enter the entertainment world, all for himself, right? Doesn't that mean he has a crush on himself?
The little bird was a little confused, and the little head couldn't figure out what to think.
ββ¦β¦ Then you say, my friend, is it necessary to take the initiative to contact him again? β
"Hmm... You don't have to. β
Hayakawa Seilai crossed his arms as if he were a little teacher.
"After all, it's good for girls to take the initiative! Proper closure will make it look more attractive, the so-called want to catch and indulge! β
"Stop... Isn't it more attractive...? β
The little bird was ignorant, holding his face thoughtfully, and subconsciously chose to believe this junior who seemed to be resourceful and more experienced.
During his contemplation, he didn't notice the smiling Hayakawa Shenglai, with a hint of "plan" cunning in his eyes.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Morning, Brother Cangzhen, accompany me to Ximen for lunch to eat ramen in a while."
Last night, I accompanied Nana Hashimoto until three or four o'clock, saying that she was celebrating with her, but it was better to chat with her by herself. I couldn't get up today, and I rushed to the studio when it was almost time for lunch break.
"ββAh, Qiu Yang, you are here. I had a friend who wanted to see you just now, and I guess I can't accompany you to eat ramen, so you should go to her first. β
To his surprise, Shinoda declined his invitation.
"She? Friend? Who is it? β
Qiu Yang was still a little sleepy-eyed, and he couldn't react for a while.
"Anyway, you'll find out first."
Shinoda looked around and blinked quietly - he suddenly understood, most of them were those little idol friends, and it was inconvenient for him to say it publicly in the studio.
He suddenly remembered his phone again.
"Oh yes, Brother Cangzhen, you didn't see my phone, put it in the morning... Put it in that paper bag. β
"Huh?" Shinoda looked a little surprised, "Is that so?" β
"What is it..."
Qiu Yang looked at his appearance and always felt that he knew something.
"Don't ask, let's go meet your friend first..."
β¦β¦
Although Qiu Yang felt a little strange in his heart, he still arrived at Akamon at twelve o'clock in the afternoon according to what Shinoda said.
"Who the hell is ......?"
He couldn't think of any unsightly friend who wanted to sneak up on him alone.
"Brother Qiu Yang!"
Hearing some familiar voice whispering to himself behind him, he turned back.
It was a girl wearing a knitted hat with her head tucked into a scarf, and although she only showed a pair of smiling eyes, Qiu Yang recognized her by what she was holding in her hand.
"It's Hayakawa-san, hello."
Qiu Yang greeted him a little stiffly, after all, he and Hayakawa Shenglai were on the same side, not to mention that he accepted the gift quite awkwardly, and he was not very familiar with each other.
To add insult to injury, the gift she had left in the lounge was now in her hand. Regardless of whether you fall on purpose or not, it is always a particularly disrespectful behavior.
"Oh, Brother Qiu Yang, this is your gift."
Hayakawa Seilai seemed to be nonchalant, and still handed over the gift with crooked eyebrows, but there was some ridicule in his words.
"Brother Qiu Yang wanted to hear Shenglai say Happy Valentine's Day again, so he deliberately left the gift in the lounge?"
"Then the saint is here to satisfy you, Happy Valentine's Day, again."
Laughing a little wryly, Qiu Yang took the paper bag and scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
"That, Hayakawa-san, I really didn't mean to... Whether you believe it or not, it was really in a hurry that day, and I forgot to take it. β
Then he added.
"Really appreciate the gift! I'll be grateful for eating clean! β
Seeing Qiu Yang anxiously proving himself, Hayakawa Shenglai couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.
"I know that Brother Qiu Yang didn't deliberately take it away, so there's no need to be in such a hurry to prove his innocence."
"Huh?"
Qiu Yang was a little surprisedβyou can also know this?
"Did you touch the inside of the bag yourself?"
"That's right!" Only then did Qiu Yang react, "I left my phone here!" β
"Look, Brother Qiu Yang, you have put your mobile phone in it, you must be attaching great importance to the gift of Shenglai?"
Hayakawa Seilai made a very shy look and blinked his eyes.
"Shenglai is very happy."
"Uh..."
Qiu Yang couldn't cope with such enthusiasm, but thanked him a little stiffly, and was a little absent-minded.
"Anyway, thank you Hayakawa-san, and I made a special trip..."
The first moment he got his phone, he began to check all communication methods such as messages, call logs, and LINE.
- There was no news from Asuka, no original contact information, no unfamiliar number.
"How so......"
Qiu Yang suddenly fell down, is it really as he thought, Asuka no longer wants to have anything to do with him.
"-Brother Qiu Yang? Brother Qiu Yang! Are you listening to me? β
Hayakawa Seilai's voice pulled him out of his lost emotions.
"I'm sorry, I was just reading the news, what did Hayakawa-san say?"
"I said, since I've worked so hard to run, I'll even have to rush to work in a while, it's super hard!"
Hayakawa frowned, as if he was a little aggrieved.
Before Qiu Yang could apologize, she suddenly grinned again and became playfulβthe speed at which she changed her face made Qiu Yang amazed.
"-Then senior, do you want to invite me to a bowl of ramen?"
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
After the celebration banquet ended, Shinoda Aoma and Haruka Kaki sent Hayakawa Seilai home together - after all, the two of them were neighbors, so they could just stop by the way.
Before saying goodbye, Shinoda handed the chocolate goodie bag to Hayakawa:
"Shenglai sauce, let's give you this paper bag, you can give it to Qiu Yang yourself tomorrow, and I'll say hello for you."
"Huh? Won't the seniors be able to meet Qiu Yangsang tomorrow? It's good to just give it to him. β
Hayakawa Shenglai was a little reluctant, after all, her gifts were all rejected, and she was unwilling to let her stick a cold ass again, just by virtue of that little bit of good impression of Qiu Yang.
"Well, if I give it, tomorrow on Valentine's Day, I will give Qiu Yang chocolates in front of everyone, so do I want Shinoda to mess around in Todai?"
"So I don't care, Shenglai-chan, you can give it yourself tomorrow!"
When the senior said this, she had no choice but to take the paper bag and agree.
β¦β¦
"βHuh? Cell phone? β
Back at home, very inadvertently, Hayakawa Seilai took out a mobile phone from a paper bag.
Turning on the screen casually, the lock screen is a photo of Asoka's seniors, as well as a large number of missed calls and messages from the same unknown number.
You don't have to guess to know that most of it is Qiu Yangsang's mobile phone, which is a well-known bird.
"Why is this photo so everyday? Where did Azukasan post it, it doesn't feel like it's been refined......"
Hayakawa muttered as she casually swore she was really just casually entering the birthday of Asuka's senpai in the password interface.
"Ah, unraveled ......"
The moment she unlocked the screen, she felt rude and hurriedly wanted to turn off the screen.
By chance, I saw that a new message was also from that unfamiliar number.
"-Yo-chan, when you're free, you must reply to me."
"Huh? Is it Qiu Yangsang's girlfriend? Did he have a girlfriend? β
Perhaps driven by the gossip heart, or perhaps some unwilling emotions, Hayakawa Seilai stretched out his guilty hand and unlocked the screen again.
After a cursory glance at the message, Hayakawa Seirai was so frightened that his phone was about to be thrown out.
"βWhere is Yo-chan now, Azuka, I'm here at the celebration now, will you come?"
"-Yang-chan, I have a day's work tomorrow day and night, I may not be able to come to you on Valentine's Day, you must reply to me when you are free."
Hayakawa Seilai originally thought that it would be a new routine to blame fans for his delusions, but the more he looked at it, the more wrong it became, and the celebration banquet and tomorrow's work mentioned in the words were all very private and accurate information about Asuka Saito.
Enter the unfamiliar number into your mobile phone and take a look - isn't this the new mobile phone number that Asu Kasan has just changed!
Receiving the amount of information from the explosion at once, Hayakawa Seirai felt his head buzz.
- What's the situation? Is this the relationship between these two people? And how do you look at it, Asuka's predecessors are a little too proactive, right? So what were the ones before them, acting on the spot? Is this the world of adults? Does the operation know all this?
Han Hanlai's mind was filled with too many question marks at once.
is also linked to Qiu Yang's life photo wallpaper, the appearance of the bird in the background, Brother Shinoda's unsurprised expression, Qiu Yang publicly said that he is a bird pusher......
It seems that all the violations and non-violations are all connected, and even the somewhat abnormal thing of not saving mobile phone contacts is a wise move for insurance in her opinion.
"Is it boyfriend and girlfriend?" Although Hayakawa Seilai was no longer reconciled, he still inevitably thought about this aspect.
"No, if it's a boyfriend and girlfriend, why doesn't Asuka Saito seem to know Qiu Yang's whereabouts, and Qiu Yang also looks like he's avoiding her?"
She quickly rejects her idea.
- Is there a quarrel? Or is Azukasan simply pursuing one-sidedly?
"That's right! It must have been a breakup! β
She patted her head and suddenly realized that everything made sense.
"And then Azukasan is begging to get back together! That's right, that's it! β
"Ahh
Hayakawa Seilai was a little at a loss all of a sudden. But soon, she realized something even more important:
After reading the message himself, Asu Kasan will show that he has read it, and Qiu Yang will also find that someone has checked the information - when the time comes, the only suspect will be himself.
There is really no way, in order not to expose yourself, there is only one way to go.
"I'm sorry Azukasan, I'm also good for you, you're an active idol, you can't do foolish things! Let the saint come and I will help you, and if you should decide, you will decide! β
Comforting himself in this way, but also hiding his own little selfishness, Hayakawa Seilai was ruthless and deleted all messages and call records from this number.
