"- Neru-chan has left our team, but we will continue to work hard to bring a smile to everyone's face in the future!"

Nagoya's ZEPP tour was the first appearance of Hiragana Akisaka after it was announced that Nagahama Ninryu had been relieved of Hiragana's part-time position. And everyone in the second phase of life is a cat in the background, watching the senior Kumi Sasaki on the stage trying to suppress the choking in his throat, trying his best to maintain a calm tone and say the words above.

Although he said that, except for Dayuan, most of the people in the background were still very pessimistic.

"-Na, Yo-chan, you said we still had a chance ......"

Nao Kosaka, who was sticking to Ozoen's side as usual, couldn't help the sad atmosphere around her at this time, and she also lowered her eyes and asked Ozono Hiroshi in a low voice - somehow, she felt that the girl was always very confident and confident, even when the seniors were very worried, she never wavered at all.

She longs for such a big garden, or rather, she wants to be such an existence that can reassure everyone.

“…… It's okay. ”

Sure enough, as every time she was shaken before, Dayuan smiled and took her hand, and her overly bright smile looked particularly dazzling in a sad background.

"I don't know what the future holds, but as long as we work hard, I think someone will see it."

"Sauce ......"

“……”

Ever since Ogen and Miku Kanemura went out alone for an appointment two weeks ago, she always felt a little left out. In addition, I don't know what happened that day, and after I came back, the small sushi stuck to Dayuan's side every day, calling it sweet with a mouthful of "foreign sauce", but it seemed that it was redundant.

In addition, Da Yuan's hand injury recovered quickly, and he soon didn't need to be taken care of by the two of them. She's not good at expressing her feelings, and she doesn't want to be cheeky enough to insert such an inseparable two, and when she realizes it, she always feels that she has become estranged from Yangchan.

But today, it was the other party who took the initiative to find himself and said that he wanted to sit with him backstage and watch the performances of his predecessors.

"-Nao-chan didn't look for me some time ago.,I thought nao-chan was angry with me, eh, hehe......"

Looking at her stupidly scratching her head, Kosaka, who couldn't tell whether she was really stupid or pretending to be stupid, could only sigh and be pulled together obediently.

And now, feeling the heat of her right hand being clenched, Nao Kosaka suddenly moved, and the thought that she must try to stay in Hiragana Sakasaka - such thoughts used to exist, but now they are stronger.

"-If,Disbanded,Isn't it possible to be like this、Inseparable from Yo-chan......"

……

……

"—everyone's done a great job."

After the performance, the girls were greeted in the lounge, and it was unexpectedly not the general manager who usually seemed to be a hanger, but Yoshio Konno, who had not been seen for a long time.

"Ah......h

His unexpected arrival was something that the members didn't know about in advance. Often, the appearance of Konno is accompanied by the announcement of major news, and for Hiragana, "major news" is often not good news.

What's more, at this time, the haze called "dissolution" that shrouded their heads was even more materialized with the appearance of Konno.

Second-stage students such as Yona Kawada, who has poor psychological tolerance, have already shrunk their necks behind their companions, and they are whimpering with their eyes closed, unwilling to face this overly tense scene.

“……”

To be honest, Konno's overly serious expression made Osono Yang, who was already very wealthy, nervous, and it was no wonder that the girls were so nervous that they lost their temper.

"Konno-san, thank you for coming ......"

As the backbone of the team, Kumi Sasaki still greeted Konno calmly.

"Today's performance was great......

Konno suddenly showed a smile and squinted to greet Sasaki.

“…… I can't help but look forward to it, what kind of scene will it be like after everyone in the second phase joins the performance? ”

"Thank you for the expectation of Konno-san......"

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone was a little relieved - regardless of whether it was sincere or not, at least on the surface, this tour met Konno's requirements. And listening to what he means, there will also be follow-up performances, at least not in the short term?

If it's not disbanded, then Konno-san is coming......

"——If you come here today, the main thing is that there is important news to tell you......"

As if seeing through everyone's questions, Yoshio Konno chuckled and pressed down on his arm, signaling everyone not to be so nervous.

"The final stop of the solo tour, which is the first stage performance of the second phase of the second generation, has been decided."

“…… Huh? ”

- As soon as these words came out, they didn't feel anything in the second year, but the first generation reacted quite a lot.

Previously, when they announced the ZEPP tour, they thought that every stop was just a livehouse show of today's specifications! Listen to what Konno-san means, isn't it......

"The date is December 13 and the venue is Makuhari Messe in Chiba......"

"Woo......"

Before Yoshio Konno's words fell, there was a faint sound of sobbing among the seniors, and even with them in the second phase, they were excited-Makuhari ...... That's a venue-level venue! As second-year students, can they be such a place when they appear for the first time?

However, Ozoon's head turned faster, and he immediately reacted to another worry—could they really fill such a large venue with only their Hiragana Saka and Hiragana-san's Hiragana-san...... Or, will this performance just be a compensation for the departure of Nagahama's predecessors? Even...... Is it a casual meal?

Thinking like this, Osono subconsciously looked at Konno, and unexpectedly, the other party, who had been talking to the first student, also glanced at him meaningfully.

"Well, thanks to the efforts of all the first-term students, such an arrangement can be made. I'll let my agent connect with you after that, and you just need to be responsible for performing hard and continuing to convey the spirit of Hiragana. ”

As he said this, Konno turned and walked out the door, and when he reached the door, he turned back two steps.

"I know that everyone has been a little depressed recently because of the incident with Nagahama-san, so I also hope that my arrival can bring you a shot of strength."

"—Thank you Konno-san."

Under the leadership of Kumi Sasaki, everyone bowed in unison and thanked Yoshio Konno.

Osono Yoshi also bowed down, and suddenly felt that Konno was not as scary as his own Momoko sister described—knowing that they might be shaken, and even rushing to Nagoya to cheer them on, he was not a demon boss, right?

"As for the second shot of the heart booster......"

Just when everyone was chewing on what Konno-san had just said, what "the spirit of belonging to Hiragana" was, Yoshio Konno suddenly opened his mouth again. The landing point of his gaze went around in a circle, and finally fell on Dayuan's face in vain.

“…… Can you take a look at it yourself or on the Internet? ”

“…… Huh? ”

Seeing Konno leave this sentence and walk away, the members were a little rioted - they were on the move or preparing for a performance all day, and they didn't have time to swipe their phones in the lounge, let alone surf the Internet. At this time, Konno said that they were all busy flipping out their mobile phones and opening social media.

"How could it be ......?"

On the trend list, Dayuan, who had brushed the familiar words, muttered to himself, and at the same time, he quickly felt the sight from all directions.

"Yoko Ozono."

The second shot of the cardiotonic is his name.
