The south wind blowing through Tokyo quietly smells of grass.

At this time of the year, the topic of voice actors' private chats revolves around voice actor awards.

"President, this is this year's winners." Northwest respectfully handed the document to Yu Murakami.

"What's going on?" Yu Murakami looked at the name behind [Leading Actor Award].

He doesn't remember YM having himself on the list of entries.

Northwest explained: "The president's reward is a well-deserved thing, and there is no black-box operation. Whether it's a general vote or a jury vote, you get the first place by a lot more than the second-place vote. ”

"I mean, why would I be involved in the awards?"

"This ......," Northwest froze.

When everyone was discussing, they subconsciously put the president in the list of participants.

Coupled with Yu Murakami's strength, they will definitely win awards, and in their hearts, there is no reason for Yu Murakami not to participate.

Murakami looked at his expression and guessed what was going on.

Others look down on him, he doesn't care, and on the contrary, he won't pursue the approval of others. In addition, participating in the voice actor award is not a job, and it is a complete waste of time for him.

"President, I'll have someone attend for you?" Northwest carefully proposed.

"Do you have any other award-winning voice actors? If you have, talk to him and ask him for help. ”

"Yes, Saori-sang won the [Assistant Actress Award] earlier, and she has a good relationship with you, and she is definitely willing to help."

"Did you get the [Assistant Actress Award] before you saw it early?" Yu Murakami lowered his gaze and looked at the column of "Starring Female Voice Awards".

[Starring Actress Award - Mizse Kei]

"......" Murakami Yu thought for a while and said, "Forget it, I'll go to the award ceremony by myself." ”

"Yes." "President, in addition to the voice actor award, you also won the best award at the Broadcasting Award. ”

"Radio awards?"

Yu Murakami's impression of the radio award is still with Ai Nakano, because the broadcast of "Game Life" won the best award and the most anticipated resurrection award.

"The award was won for your solo broadcast "That's Voice Actor Murakami."

"That's it." Yu Murakami nodded.

This is a good opportunity to show his face, and he is ready to let You Mubi go - his sister also has to learn to help her brother share her troubles.

"In addition, your junior Saori Onishi, although she didn't have a very big result in the voice actor award, she won the best newcomer award on the radio this time."

"It's not bad." Yu Murakami was pleased.

This at least proves that Saori Onishi is talented, although not in acting.

And with an acquaintance accompanying You Mubi, he shouldn't be too nervous, and he will rest assured.

"As a junior of the president, it is natural that he will not be bad. Without your show, she and Sakura-san's show wouldn't have won the best prize. ”

Yes, yes, two rewards and one can't be absent.

Murakami sighed and said, "Thank you for your hard work, I will attend on time." ”

"No, no, it's my pleasure to serve the president."

Northwest bowed and walked out of the president's office.

In the afternoon of the same day.

Shimazaki Nobunaga: I have to treat tonight, and it's still the Sukiya in Ginza

Li Yi Takahashi: Congratulations to Murakami-san≧ ≦ I also won the rookie award? Maybe next year, you can also win the leading female voice award! (???????)

Saori Hayami: Congratulations

Domoto Kaidou: You have won all the prizes now, and in the future, you can only stand still and watch me catch up with you!

Uchida: Congratulations! When are you coming to my house? My sister and I cook for you

Nail Palace: It's me

……

Almost everyone who has Yu Murakami's contact information has sent a message.

In addition, Mizurai called to discuss the time to go to the voice actor award together, and after a while, Suzune Sakura asked him what he was wearing.

They didn't ask Yu Murakami if he was going, and Yu Murakami didn't say that he didn't want to go - something that was destined to be futile had to learn to give up.

There are no clear rules on clothing for voice actors, and generally male voice actors wear suits and female voice actors wear kimonos.

On the day of the awards, Yu Murakami took out his shirt and blazer from the cabinet and put them on.

Ai Nakano hasn't finished today's work yet, and everyone is in charge, so he doesn't bother to tie it.

"Let's go." Suzune Sakura greeted.

She is going to record "Onishi Who I Want to Do with Sakura" today, and the guest is the winner of the main voice actor award.

This show obviously rarely invites guests, but the 811 company bites Murakami to death, and asks if there is any time in the itinerary.

In the industry, it is common for newlywed voice actors to be guests on other people's broadcasts - talking about the changes after marriage, the name of the other half, who cooks, etc.

The annual starring voice actor award will also have the same treatment, and on the day of the award, he was invited to be a guest on a radio broadcast to talk to the audience about the award-winning process.

This time, 811 paid the most, and Murakami Yu thought that it would make people popular anyway, so it was better to rub the voice actor of the YM office, so he agreed.

Not to mention the water rays, the few issues that Sakura Suzune was absent from, the radio title was once changed to "The Great West I want to do with the water rays".

The two came to the garage, and when Yu Murakami was about to sit in the co-pilot, Suzune Sakura threw the key to him.

"You're going to drive today."

So Murakami sat in the driver's seat, and the two drove Sakura Suzune's newly bought Mercedes-Benz and set off to pick up Mizurasu.

"Uh-huh, uh-huh~~" Suzune Sakura hummed along the way.

While waiting for the traffic light at the intersection of Kogakuin University, Yu Murakami passed the time and asked her, "What are you so happy about?" ”

"Won the radio award~" Suzune Sakura replied happily.

"There is still half a month left in the awards ceremony of the Radio Awards, won't you be happy too early?"

"Isn't it better to be happy that this time is going to pass anyway?"

Yu Murakami nodded: "Makes sense." ”

This is the end of the short conversation.

Suzune Sakura continued to hum the song, and Murakami counted the floors of the Keio Hotel on the left, and when he reached the 47th floor, the traffic light turned green.

After passing a bus stop, I turned into a secluded alley, and there was the house of the water and the prayer.

"You go and call her." Yu Murakami said.

"No, you go."

Yu Murakami got out of the car and rang the doorbell.

Shui Laiqi walked out alone, and her parents may not have come back from work.

Today, she wore a kimono with a floral pattern on a white background, a wide aqua blue belt, and a small handbag of the same color in her right hand.

She spun around and smiled confidently like a model: "How's it going, is it good-looking?" ”

"Beautiful."

"Uh-" she uttered a disgruntled voice, "It's too cold, Murakami-san!" ”

"Anyway, let's get in the car first."

Although perfunctory, Shui Laiqi's body is really good-looking.

The slender figure goes well with this kimono, and the curved bangs make her look even more cute.

Mizurai locked the door and followed Murakami to the car.

"Why did you drive Suzune's car? Ah, take care of me wearing a kimono today! Murakami Santa ......"

Before she finished speaking, she saw Suzune Sakura waving to her in the car.

"How can you vixen sit in the co-pilot! Come down—"

"Slightly!" Miss Sakura's eyes were smiling.

"I'm the heroine today, Suzune, the co-pilot should give it to me, right?"

"The heroine should sit in the back, Murakami is the driver, I am your assistant, so naturally I am the co-pilot. Don't be dissatisfied. ”

"Stealing the ——! Cat"

On the way to the award ceremony, Shui Laiqi did not have the demeanor of the heroine at all, and the virtuous temperament in the kimono was also abandoned, and her little head poked out of the middle.

Annoyed, Suzune Sakura pressed her hand on the door of Mizurai's head, trying to push her back into her seat.

"Can you sit well? In case of an accident, your location has the highest fatality! ”

The main reason is that Shui Laiqi blocked her view of Yu Murakami!

Murakami's driving posture is not as exaggerated as the handsome scene in the movie. It's very simple to hold the steering wheel with one hand, and the other hand is left there with nothing to do because there is no manual transmission.

But it's also full of charm like this, which makes her want to stop, and she can watch it while eating.

Compared to this, the scenery outside is not worth mentioning at all.

"I like to see the scenery in front of me." Shui Laiqi said seriously.

"Go back!"

"Don't!"

"Go back!"

“......”

Yu Murakami silently sped up the car.

It was 4:50 a.m. when the car arrived at the award ceremony, and there were still 40 minutes before the start began.

Yu Murakami parked his car in the garage and prepared to walk to the third-floor venue.

"Lingyin, you help me look at my bangs, you've messed them up."

"Who told you not to sit well! Have you thought about your acceptance speech? ”

"It's all memorized, don't worry. Oops, this kimono strangled me, it's so boring. ”

"Bear with it! I don't think I've been strangled yet! ”

"Slightly~~"

"You did it on purpose, right? Yes? ”

"yes."

Yu Murakami stopped, stood where he was, and looked back at the two of them:

Suzune Mizurai leaned her face in front of Suzune Sakura, and Suzune Sakura meticulously combed Suzune's bangs one by one.

It's as if my sister is dressing up my sister.

Perhaps because they came early, they didn't see any other voice actors in the parking lot.

When they arrived at the venue, they wrote their names on the conference desk, and the three of them sat in the front row.

After a while, when there were more and more people, Suzune Sakura moved the back seat and gave up the front row to the winner.

Sitting next to Mizurai is a female voice actor named Sumire Uesaka, who is not familiar with Murakami and simply greets her.

When Yumasa Murakami was bored, a resident male voice actor in the crew of "Wrong Land" came.

"Yo, Murakami."

"Good evening."

Kamasa Hosoya sat next to him, "Congratulations." ”

"Thank you, and congratulations."

"Where, where, it's just an assistant performance." Kamasa Hosoya said with a smile.

They were chatting with each other, and a purple figure skimmed the sight of the two.

The two looked at each other in unison.

Saori Hayami wears a light purple accessory pattern kimono with a white embroidered sash, and her hair is tied up and fastened with a white hair ornament.

Yu Murakami's eyesight is good, and you can see that she has chrysanthemums, the national flower of the island country, painted on her chest, and citrus flowers blooming on the ground below her knees.

The whole person is dignified and elegant, down-to-earth and generous, and the difference between him and the person who occasionally wears a kimono is obvious.

"Hayami-san is quite temperamental, although many people are suitable for wearing kimonos, but it is rare to see such a suitable." Kamasa Hosoya sighed.

"I see it that way, too." Yu Murakami agreed.

"Huh?" Obviously talking to Sumire Uesaka, he turned his face sideways to look at the two.

"Of course, [Hestia] is the best-looking!" Hosoya Kamasa said in an exaggerated tone of coaxing children.

"I see it that way, too." Yu Murakami also responded.

Shui Laiqi nodded in satisfaction, turned his head and continued to chat with Sumire Uesaka, who was looking at him curiously.

"It's hard work, Murakami." Kashi Hosoya was looking at the stage carefully, as if someone was already performing on it, and whispered softly.

"Make do with it." Yu Murakami also did not squint and sighed softly.

The award ceremony began at half past five as scheduled.

Sponsors, award presenters, and staff members only won about 20 awards, but there were more than 200 people at the scene.

First of all, the host announced the start, and then the representatives of the organizers, such as the Sound Producers Alliance, the Shogakukan, etc., took the stage to deliver speeches.

After the organizer's speech, the award ceremony began, starting with the lightest award.

The male voice actors who came to the stage to accept the award wore a suit for the younger ones and a tuxedo for the older ones;

There are female voice actors who wear evening dresses and kimonos.

When it was the newcomer's turn to reward, Sumire Uesaka, who was next to Mizurai, came to the stage, and Takahashi Li Yi, who was wearing a yellow kimono, and a few others.

Standing side by side with the six people who won the award, the audience burst into warm applause.

Next is the [Assistant Acting Award], two men and two women, Hosoya Yoshimasa and Saori Hayami are two of them.

The last is the [starring award].

Host: "In 2016, the winner of the 10th Leading Female Voice Award is-Shui Lai Qisang, congratulations. ”

Shui Laiqi walked onto the stage and respectfully accepted the trophy from the award presenter.

Yu Murakami looked at { who was giving a thank you speech, won the [starring award] at the age of twenty, and his face was a little blue because of nervousness} Mizurai, and couldn't help but think of Saori Onishi.

I don't know if she felt ashamed when she watched the live broadcast of the awards.

After Shui Lai prayed for his thanks, he stood obediently in the corner of the stage.

Host: "In 2016, the winner of the 10th Leading Male Voice Award is Yu-san Murakami, congratulations! ”

The applause was louder than ever, as if the applause had come from the conference room and was now from the stage theater.

Bathed in such warm and lively applause, Yu Murakami walked onto the stage.

He was presented with an old woman in a black kimono who handed him the trophy with a kind face.

"Good evening, everyone, I'm Yu Murakami.

It is a pleasure to receive this award. I thought that as the president, the work gradually decreased, and I will never have the opportunity to stand on this stage in the future, so thank you for your support.

In the future, I will continue to do my best and contribute my acting skills. Thank you. ”

After the speech, as the winner of the [Leading Actor Award], he took a group photo with Shui Laiqi.

Shui Laiqi's little head tilted to his side, almost close to the distance, and smiled at the camera, no, at Suzune Sakura in the audience.

Yu Murakami looked at Suzune Sakura, who was gritting his teeth, and silently raised his gaze.

Finally, there was a group photo, and this time Shui Laiqi didn't play a clever trick - she sat next to Yu Murakami, her kimono spread on the ground, and her face posed with the solemn expression of taking wedding photos with her husband.

In short, Suzune Sakura was very unpleasant to look at both photos.

After that, there was a simple dinner on the second floor, where Murakami responded to the cordial greetings of the older generation and answered all kinds of strange questions.

Mizurai was very relaxed over there, using Saori Hayami as a pillar and going in circles with Sakura Suzune.

At seven o'clock, the three of them said goodbye and left, preparing for tonight's live broadcast of "Onishi Who I Want to Do with Sakura".
