I became a girl group idol for my sister.

This guy has fallen for Yukari Kojima?

Miyamoto was puzzled, but he still gave an answer.

"I don't feel anything. We're just friends, more than classmates. We've at least talked. What's wrong?"

"What about Matsumoto?"

"Matsumoto Haruna, right? I don't feel anything. She's just a friend I've talked to. What's wrong?" Miyamoto looked at Iwagami Kenta suspiciously. "Let me tell you, these two are best friends. They're very close. Are you trying to have your cake and eat it too? I won't stand by and watch."

"What are you thinking about? Right now, Iwagami Kenta has only Hikaru in my heart!" After proving once again that his feelings for Watanabe Hikaru are unchanged, Iwagami Kenta whispered again, "I just saw those two people giving you chocolates last time, and I thought they were interested in you. If you really want a girlfriend, you can give it a try."

"That's just a gift of obligation, a gift between friends."

Miyamoto Sei spoke frankly and without any hesitation. Upon hearing this, Iwagami Kenta sighed and gently patted Miyamoto Sei's shoulder with his right hand: "That's why you're so young, so incredibly young. This idea is just too naive!"

"I'll call them both over now, and you can ask them if it's a duty chocolate."

"Is this something you can just ask? Those two have almost never given chocolates to other men, but they gave you one. You call that obligation chocolate? You believe that?"

Kenta Iwagami looked at him with exasperation: "Don't hesitate! Matsumoto is very popular and has excellent social skills. As for Kojima, she's hot and beautiful, and many people outside of school like her. You have a chance, so make your move first!"

Miyamoto sighed, pondered for a moment, and said earnestly, "Right now, my mind is only on my studies and career. I have no other thoughts. Do you understand?"

"Then why do you skip class every day..."

Have you noticed that my grades have dropped?

In short, Kenta Iwagami was speechless.

The reason the teacher could turn a blind eye to Miyamoto Sei's rampant truancy was simply because his grades had remained firmly in the top three all these days; in fact, it could be said that his ranking hadn't changed at all.

"Besides, I skip class for my career; I don't have time for anything else..."

"Working for someone else doesn't really count as a career. You need to at least have a decent company or something..."

Kenta Iwagami retorted, only to see Miyamoto Sei smiling at him.

"At my age, there are still many things I can do."

After saying that, he tapped the earpiece twice, and the music started playing again.

About three seats ahead, Yukari Kojima was looking at the photobook in her hands, her face flushed.

Although the two people behind her had lowered their voices, she still heard them. The reason was simple: her attention had indeed been focused on where those two people were.

Because I focused my attention, I actually listened to everything they said.

It should have been nothing, since there are plenty of people who like me, but for some reason I started to care about it just now, and ended up listening very attentively.

Upon hearing Miyamoto Sei say that he should prioritize his studies and career, I felt a sense of relief, but along with that relief, I also felt a sense of loss.

It's because I don't feel liked by anyone that I feel a bit disappointed. That's all. It's simply because I feel like I'm not that popular. It's not because I have feelings for someone and got rejected...

Yukari Kojima thought to herself.

Then, thinking about Miyamoto Sei's words, she couldn't help but admire him.

Miyamoto-kun is really amazing. Even though he spends half as much time studying at school as we do, he can still easily keep his grades at the same level without any change.

If you think about it carefully, doesn't this ability actually show that he has always had a good grasp of his own level? Even the level he displays is calculated by himself. With this kind of ability, he will definitely be able to get into a school like the University of Tokyo in the future.

As for me, should I go to university, a vocational school, or start working immediately...?

Lost in thought about her future, Yukari Kojima's mood shifted from her earlier disappointment to a different state.

……

"Miyu-chan, here's the book you borrowed. I've already registered it!" Miyamoto Yukiko happily handed a registered book to Nagaan Miyu, who smiled and accepted it, saying, "Thank you."

After putting the book away, Miyu Nagayasu asked, "By the way, how should I address you?"

"Miyamoto Yukiko, just call me Yukiko, Miyu-chan!"

Yukiko Miyamoto immediately said that she was very happy to be asked her name by her idol. Remembering the name was the first step, and then she could continue to get closer to him. Then they could have a meal together and she could ask him some things she wanted to know, such as what Nana-chan usually likes!

Thinking of this, Yukiko Miyamoto couldn't help but feel excited.

"Miyamoto Yukiko? You also have the surname Miyamoto!" Upon hearing the other person's surname, Nagasu Miyu immediately asked happily, "It's the same surname as Nana-chan!"

"I think so too. I'm also her fan, what a coincidence!" Yukiko Miyamoto said with a smile. "By the way, Miyu-chan, what do Nana-chan usually like to eat?"

"What does Nana-chan like to eat?" Miyu Nagayasu recalled for a moment: "She generally likes all kinds of delicious food and isn't picky about food. But if I had to say, she can handle spicy food very well. She's definitely the one in SKR who can handle the spiciest food."

"The one who can eat the spiciest food? I thought she was amazing when I watched her on a variety show last time. She ate without even changing her expression, even though the food looked incredibly spicy..."

“That’s right, those chilies were extremely spicy. Even people who can handle spicy food usually can’t stand them, but Nana-chan actually ate them all…” Miyu Nagayasu looked frightened. “Luckily, she’s fine. She seems completely used to the spiciness. If the chilies she usually eats weren’t this intense, I would suspect that she eats super spicy chilies every day.”

"By the way, I heard that Nana-chan doesn't usually change her clothes in front of everyone, is that true?"

"Of course it's true, but it's not that I don't change at all. I just don't change my underwear. I usually just change my outerwear."

"Ahem!" A soft cough came from the side. It was Shizukako. She looked at the two people who were engrossed in their conversation: "Gentlemen, this is the library, although there aren't many people here right now..."

"I'm sorry." Miyu Nagayasu quickly apologized, then put the book away. "I should go now. Thank you both for your help."

"Goodbye, Miyu-chan!" Waving goodbye, Yukiko Miyamoto watched Miyu Anagami leave with an envious look: "It's so nice to be so close to Nana-chan..."

"Because she's an idol, and she's in the same year as Miyamoto Nana, and even in the same unit now, of course they'll hang out together," said Beshi Sadako from the side. "If you want, why don't you just sign up to be an idol too?"

"No, no, no, I can't do that. I don't have that kind of talent for dancing or singing. The only thing I can do well is study." Miyamoto Yukiko immediately shook her head: "The one in our family with the best chance of becoming an idol should be my older sister, but she plans to go to university because of her health."

"That's a bit of a pity."

“It’s not a pity. Although my sister is very talented, it will be difficult for her to break through. If she can’t break through, she will remain unknown until her idol graduates. Wouldn’t that be a waste of several years?” Miyamoto Yukiko shook her head. “Besides, I think my sister’s talent in learning is about the same as my brother’s. In any case, she is better than me.”

At this point, she thought for a moment and said, "So I think that my sister is now truly bringing out her talents. Although it sounds strange, I have never doubted that my sister can get into Tokyo University. Oh, right, my brother too. On the contrary, it might be a bit difficult for me."

Upon hearing this, Sadako was momentarily at a loss for words.

You said getting into the University of Tokyo is a sure thing for two of your families, but a bit difficult for the other. Are all the students in your family academic monsters?

While internally ranting, Sadako could only smile and say, "Really? I think you can pass the exam if you try your best. After all, it might be a bit difficult, but you can overcome that obstacle by working hard."

"That's right, I really have to work hard. Nana-chan works so hard to be an idol, so as her fan, I should also work hard to pursue my own dreams!" Clenching her fist, Yukiko Miyamoto was filled with an indomitable spirit.

This startled Sadako slightly.

Is this kind of fighting spirit something that idol worship can have?

Chapter 51 All Fans

On her way home, Yukiko Miyamoto was walking with her best friend, Kuriko Morita.

Kuriko Morita was practically hanging on Yukiko Miyamoto like a koala.

"Yukiko-chan, where does your brother live? Please tell me!" Morita Kuriko kept whispering in Miyamoto Yukiko's ear, as if trying to brainwash her: "If you tell me, I'll treat you to KFC!"

"You think you can bribe me with a KFC meal and make me betray my brother?" Yukiko Miyamoto said immediately, bending down slightly at the same time: "Get down, you're so heavy!"

"I'm not heavy, okay? I've been watching my diet carefully lately, there's absolutely no way I could have gained weight!" Morita Kuriko quickly retorted, but then she started pestering again: "Tell me quickly, tell me where Se-kun lives now!"

Morita Kuriko's behavior made Miyamoto Yukiko sigh inwardly: "I would like to tell you, but unfortunately I don't know either."

Yukiko Miyamoto spread her hands as she spoke: "My sister said to ask my brother about this, but he always has this 'don't try to disturb my new world' look on his face and just won't say anything!"

"Huh? He's completely unwilling to tell you? Could it be that your brother's family is hiding some kind of secret?" Morita Kuriko's eyes widened immediately. "Generally speaking, there shouldn't be any problem with telling your sister where she lives..."

"My sister did tell me that my brother has grown up and needs some personal space. She basically told me, 'You'll have to ask him again.'"

As Miyamoto Yukiko spoke, her eyes were filled with doubt: "I have a feeling that my older sister knows where my brother lives, and it seems like the two of them are hiding something from me..."

"Your sister also helped cover it up or something..." Morita Kuriko's mind raced, and the faster it raced, the more it raced, until it was like a pressure cooker, her mind filled with all sorts of thoughts: "Could it be?!"

She gasped in surprise, her eyes widening.

"What's wrong?!"

Yukiko Miyamoto quickly looked at Kuriko Morita, wanting to know what her best friend was thinking.

"Actually, Se-kun already has a girlfriend, and they're even living together, but he doesn't plan to reveal it yet, which is why he's acting this way? And your sister discovered this secret for some reason, so she's now helping to cover it up?"

Morita Kuriko's analysis was met with a disapproving look from Miyamoto Yukiko.

"What are you thinking? Even if my brother is really in a relationship or living with someone, there's no need to hide it, is there? It's not like it's anything shameful."

“That’s true. So, in that case, it’s something that’s best left unseen…” Morita Kuriko stroked her chin, then her eyes suddenly lit up: “I get it! I know what it’s about!”

"What's on your mind now?" Yukiko Miyamoto asked, still curious about what her friend was thinking.

"So, what Se-kun actually found wasn't a girlfriend, but a boyfriend!" Morita Kuriko's words were truly astonishing. Miyamoto Yukiko was genuinely shocked and immediately shook her head frantically: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, my brother would never like a man!"

"It would be best if Se-kun liked women, then I would still have a chance. But if he liked men, I wouldn't have a chance." Morita Kuriko muttered to herself, "But maybe I can try to win him back."

"Let me say this first, that's impossible!" Miyamoto Yukiko quickly interrupted her best friend's train of thought: "Even if my brother likes men and really has a boyfriend, what's wrong with living together? You can just say that two guys are sharing an apartment to save on rent!"

Thus, Kuriko Morita was defeated once again by Yukiko Miyamoto's seemingly reasonable excuse.

"So what is the secret that made your sister express such an attitude of 'don't ask anymore'?"

Kuriko Morita couldn't understand what was going on, while Yukiko Miyamoto was caught in another kind of doubt.
