I became a girl group idol for my sister.

"Because... it would be too pitiful to be fired like this..."

Because you pity the other person? No, it's not just that.

"No, I hope she can stay with me. At least here, we are companions."

Temperisa looked at him quietly.

"And another thing, why did you say those things to them in the dance studio? If you hadn't said them, some of them would have already quit and left, since that kind of training is just too tough."

This woman has been spying on me all along?!

"The reason is the same; we are all partners. If my encouragement and support can help them keep going, I will do it."

This statement is not empty talk or a lie; he doesn't see anything wrong with showing kindness to others.

Even though this despicable woman forced him to cross-dress and participate in the girl group audition, the fact remains that she helped his sister, and this was an act of kindness from her.

"Look, why is it that Ms. Komatsu's actions, which would normally hurt others, have become a driving force for progress because of your actions? Do you understand now?"

Miyamoto looked at the other person without saying a word.

“It’s not just you, and it’s not just the ninth episode. Actually, I never said I wanted Ms. Komatsu to leave the performance. She’s still in the first row, right next to you. You should understand what you’re carrying on your shoulders, right?”

Is it the responsibility of the ninth cohort? No, it's the responsibility of all the graduate students participating in this performance, including myself, a total of sixteen people, and the future path ahead.

Mika Komatsu's admonition, Yurina Shimada's friendliness, Miyu Nagayasu's gentle yet hidden strength, and Minami Sakagami's dedicated training sessions—a series of memories flashed through my mind.

Miyamoto Sei remained silent for a moment, his eyes gradually hardening.

"I will be the center and lead everyone forward!"

Risa Amagai picked up her phone and sent a message to Miyamoto Sei: "This is your sister's hospital room number. Isn't she off tomorrow? Go check on her."

"Thank you..."

"It's just a transaction, don't take it to heart."

Watching Miyamoto Sei leave, Amagai Risa remained silent for a moment, then looked out the window behind her at the blue sky.

"You're not just going to be the sun; in my eyes, you're starting to have the potential to become a superstar!"

Then she picked up the phone.

"Hello, it's me. I need your help with something. I need to get a SIM card and a phone for a girl. The name should be Miyamoto Nana. Just bring them to me when they're ready."

She breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.

"I've been quite busy with your affairs too. It's not just about the phone; I also have to work on other things, so you have to keep up the good work, Nana-chan."

Chapter Twelve: ACE's Private Mentoring [Second Update]

The Imperial Private Hospital exudes a sense of history just by looking at it.

It is said that this place was originally a hospital built with the help of foreigners in modern times. Later, it was nationalized, and then it went bankrupt and was bought by someone else and reopened as a private hospital.

The hospital director is said to be a descendant of the foreigners who helped build the hospital. If you have to describe it, this is a hospital with a very legendary history.

Risa Amagai did not lie to Rina Miyamoto; Rina Miyamoto had indeed been transferred to a better hospital, and not only that, she also had dedicated staff to take care of her.

"Mr. Miyamoto, there's no need to worry about your sister. We'll take care of her daily cleaning. There won't be any accidents. If you're worried, you can come for a check-up anytime."

The young nurse smiled and said to Miyamoto.

"May I ask how much it costs per day?"

"It's 1 yen a day." The nurse's sweet smile, however, was like a hammer blow to Miyamoto Sei.

At 10,000 yen a day, that's 365 million yen a year. Although it didn't reach the 10 million yen medical expenses he initially envisioned, he simply wouldn't have been able to come up with that much money if it weren't for Risa Amagai's help.

After entering the room, the nurse conveniently left, leaving Miyamoto Sei and the unconscious Miyamoto Rina inside.

Looking at the needle marks on Miyamoto Rina's hand and her peaceful face, Miyamoto Sei couldn't help but take her hand in his.

"Sister, your little brother has come to see you."

“Yukiko keeps asking me when I’ll bring her to see you, and I told her it would be when I have time. Besides, I’ve really been busy lately, so I haven’t had time. I don’t think I’m lying to her…”

"Sister, let me tell you something funny. Your little brother is about to become an idol! I'm working hard on my way to becoming an idol, and I've even reached the position of center in the group. Don't you think your little brother is amazing?"

"If you don't wake up soon, you'll fall behind your little brother..."

"So, wake up soon, then I can go to school properly, and you can finally debut as an idol..."

"Also, idols are such a hassle, so please wake up already, okay?"

Tears streamed down his face as he could no longer hold back his sobs. Miyamoto Sei cried softly for an unknown amount of time, until his nose was sore and his vision was blurred. Finally, he stopped crying.

"I'm really, really acting like this. I can't keep crying like this. You'll definitely scold me if you see me, sister..."

She forced a smile, wiped her face with a wet wipe, and then ran to the bathroom to rinse her face with cold water. Only after seeing the smile return to her face did Miyamoto leave the hospital.

"call……"

Walking down the street, Miyamoto Sei, dressed in men's clothing, breathed in the fresh air and enjoyed a rare moment of leisure.

"Ah, Nan-chan is so cute!"

"Yes, Minami Sakagami is petite, and she's so cute jumping around on stage!"

"I really want to go on a date with Nan-chan!"

"Aren't you dreaming? You'll only have a chance to say something at a handshake event."

"What's wrong with dreaming? Why should you care what I dream?"

Those two looked to be high school students, just like Miyamoto Sei. They were obviously fans of the SKR girl group, and also fans of Sakagami Minami.

Hearing what the two said, Miyamoto couldn't help but recall the time he and Sakagami Minami had spent alone together at a karaoke bar some time ago.

Sakagami Minami is indeed very cute, and she's also very kind and gentle to her juniors. She even paid for their drinks back then...

Thinking of this, Miyamoto Sei chuckled to himself.

If those people found out about this, they'd probably want to kill me.

However, there was nothing else between me and Sakagami Minami; it was all work-related. Besides, I went with Sakagami Minami as Miyamoto Nana, not Miyamoto Sei, so there was no problem.

It's simply because you can easily run into or even talk to someone else's idol, which makes you feel a little better.

……

Wandering aimlessly through the streets, Miyamoto Sei realized that he had arrived at the SKR Theater.

Miyamoto sighed as he glanced at the bag he was carrying.

So, did I already have a feeling I'd come back to the theater when I left home? It's supposed to be a day off today...

She went into the bathroom, changed her clothes, and did her makeup. Miyamoto Nana was completely resurrected!

"Ah, it's Nana-chan. Aren't you off today?"

Sakagami Minami walked towards them, waving to Miyamoto Sei in an unusually intimate manner.

"I didn't have much to do at home, so I thought I'd come over to train, senior."

As they were talking, they heard a whoosh of wind behind them. Before they could figure out what was happening, Miyamoto felt himself being hugged from behind.

Two soft mounds pressed against her back, and then two hands reached out from under her armpits and grabbed Miyamoto Nana's breasts. Although they were fake, they were still A-cup size.

Miyamoto was completely stunned by the sudden attack.

"Sakura, Sakurako?! Are you an old man?"

Sakagami Minami shouted with wide eyes, while Miyamoto Sei heard a crisp sound coming from behind him.

"It's a little small, but it's quite soft. Nana-chan needs to work harder."

"S-S-Senior, what are you doing?!"

Having struggled to break free from the other person's hands, Miyamoto Sei retreated several meters, vaguely placing Sakagami Minami in front of him.

The woman in front of me, with her cheerful hairstyle and a sunny smile, still had her hands in that grasping position: "Don't be so shy, we're all girls, what's there to be afraid of? If you want, you can touch mine too."

Naoki Sakurako, Team K's Center!

Furthermore, she defeated last year's champion, Higashi Hisako Ogiko, in this year's general election and ascended to the throne of champion!

So, she's usually a woman who looks about the same age as the older man?

"No, no need, Naoki-senpai..."

Although the other party's suggestion of touching her breasts was very tempting, Miyamoto Sei resolutely chose to refuse.

If it is indeed exposed in the future, then the only thing to do is to minimize the risks that may arise from now on.

"How are you? Are you more relaxed now?"

Naoki Sakurako said with a grin.

"Relax? That just now scared my heart almost out of my chest..."

"That means it's working well, so let's get back to training, Nana-chan!"

Looking at the other person's cheerful smile, Miyamoto was somewhat stunned and touched.

Did she sense that I was preoccupied and do this to help me relax?
