I became a girl group idol for my sister.

"Well, I won't."

After a brief conversation, Miyamoto fell asleep. Knowing that the training would continue until he left for Osaka, Miyamoto had already prepared everything so he could head directly to the theater the next morning to meet Nanase Touka and then go to the station together.

……

Nanase Touka lay on the bed. The computer was off, and there was hardly any light in the room. The only light source was the starlight shining in from outside the window.

Now she can open the curtains and let the outside light shine on her instead of hiding in the dark room all the time.

I wonder what my senior is doing now.

Nanase Touka thought to herself.

"The senior must be training with Naoki-senpai. After all, Naoki-senpai is there to train the seniors, so he must be very strict."

She muttered to herself for a moment, then frowned slightly.

"But some of Naoki-senpai's behaviors are really like an old man's. I wonder if Nana-senpai gets harassed by Naoki-senpai? Like being groped in the middle of the night while sleeping? If it were Naoki-senpai, he'd probably do something like that..."

If that happens, won't the senior's secret be exposed?!

Nanase Touka suddenly sat up in bed, feeling a little flustered.

But soon, she sighed and lay back down on the bed.

There's no use in me being nervous. Nana-senpai and Naoki-senpai live together, and there's nothing I can do if I'm all alone here. Besides, even if I did go there, I couldn't possibly influence Naoki-senpai, could I? She's from the second generation, and she's the center of Team K!

However, Nana-senpai should have her own methods, right? Nana-senpai usually makes preparations. She agreed to Naoki-senpai's training, so she should have already thought about these situations. Besides, it's just a small one. Even if it is discovered, it shouldn't be a big problem. After all, Naoki-senpai is a nice person.

But shouldn't this be a secret between the two of them?

As Nanase Touka thought about it, she couldn't help but cover her head with the blanket and close her eyes tightly.

……

October 11th, Thursday.

"Senior Nana!"

With a slightly nervous shout, Nanase Touka appeared. Although she had become much bolder now, shouting in front of so many people still made her a little nervous, which caused her voice to become a little softer.

Miyamoto smiled, glanced at the bag the other person was carrying, and asked, "Did you leave anything behind?"

"No, I checked twice to make sure I brought everything I needed!" Nanase Touka immediately said, "But senpai, did you prepare everything?"

"Of course, it's all ready." Miyamoto nodded, and then they walked together to the station.

"It's another two-hour drive," Miyamoto said.

"Yeah, even though I should be a student right now, I inexplicably feel like I'm on a business trip," Nanase Touka chimed in with a laugh.

Upon hearing this, Miyamoto realized that the other person should have been a junior high school student, but had dropped out of school.

So, after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Aren't you planning to finish your studies? Finishing junior high and then going to high school is a natural thing for an idol to do while studying."

Nanase Touka hadn't expected Miyamoto Nana to ask her this question. She hesitated, and even showed worry and fear on her face.

Were there people who bullied you in junior high school?

"No, no, but I didn't interact with anyone much in junior high either. I was always alone..." Nanase Touka said softly.

She's in much better shape now, but she still needs to go back to school. There's no rush, though, as she has her national assignment to take on. We'll talk about it after that.

Miyamoto thought to himself, then smiled and said, "Don't think too much about it yet. Let's think about it after the concurrent post ends."

"Hmm!" Upon hearing this, Nanase Touka felt as if she had been liberated, and immediately relaxed again. The smile on her face was as bright as the rising sun.

Like Nagoya, Osaka is one of Japan's largest urban areas, completely different from Kyoto. It's incredibly vibrant with young people, which is why it has the potential to form the SKR sister group.

After the two got off at the station, Miyamoto didn't rush out, but said to Nanase Touka, "Wait a moment."

"Wait a minute?" Nanase Touka looked at Miyamoto Se with some confusion, only to see that the other party had taken out his phone and turned on the camera mode.

The senior colleague is planning to take photos. What does she want to photograph? A selfie to post on her blog?

"Aren't you going to take pictures?" Miyamoto asked.

"What are you filming?" Nanase Touka asked, voicing her question.

"This is Nankai Namba Station, and the most famous ship here is the Nankai Ninja!" Miyamoto said, when he suddenly heard a voice coming from afar. He looked into the distance and saw a purple figure appearing and speeding towards them.

"coming!"

He said immediately.

Nanase Touka looked in the direction Miyamoto Sei was looking and finally saw what the other person was talking about.

It was a purple subway car. Unlike the rounded front of a typical subway car, the front of this car was folded down and protruded forward, like a ninja helmet.

"They really do look like ninjas!" Nanase Touka was also a little surprised and immediately took out her phone to take a picture.

“Right? Let’s take a picture as a souvenir.” Miyamoto laughed, first taking a picture of the car, then taking a selfie with his back to the car, and then waving to Nanase Touka.

Let's take a picture together!

"Okay!" Nanase Touka didn't refuse and immediately went up to Miyamoto Sei, leaning against each other. Then, with a click, the two of them and the Nankai Ninja were shoved inside.

After taking the photos, the two of them posted them on their blogs. As an idol, Nanase Fuyuka has started her own blog. Although it was only recently established, fans quickly found it.

"Senior, are we going to AJS now?" Nanase Touka asked curiously.

“No, let’s go somewhere else first.” Miyamoto shook his head: “I’ve wanted to go for a long time, and this is on the way, so we must seize the opportunity!”

Seeing Miyamoto Sei's mysterious demeanor, Nanase Touka, though unsure of his intentions, obediently followed him.

Aside from the fear of getting lost, her biggest concern was seeing what Miyamoto Nana was up to.

Miyamoto Nana kept checking her phone, and then walked with Nanase Touka through the subway station. As they walked, they suddenly found themselves at a lower level, where they could even hear the trains rushing past on the tracks.

This place, located below the subway station, was deserted, and the walls were made of ordinary red bricks, which made it look quite peculiar.

"Senior, where is this?"

"We're here!" Miyamoto Sei exclaimed with a cheer as soon as he asked the question. He was standing outside a door that looked extremely ordinary, except for a piece of paper with some words written on it stuck to the side of the door.

Nanase Touka looked at it carefully and found that it said "No entry for non-diners".

"Is this a restaurant?" she asked, puzzled.

"Oh yeah, or rather, the subway cafeteria. I heard the prices are incredibly reasonable and the portions are huge. I really want to try it!" Miyamoto nodded, pulling Nanase Touka along as they walked inside, his eyes practically sparkling.

That's so true, the first thing you do when you arrive in a new place is eat.

Nanase Touka smiled secretly and immediately followed her inside.

The moment she stepped inside, the aroma of food wafting through the air made her stomach finally rumble; she was hungry too.

Looking at the menu again, the prices here are indeed very attractive.

Rice bowls and the like only cost a little over 200 yuan, which is about half the price of a bento box at the supermarket.

If it's a package deal, it doesn't exceed 500.

Look at the size of the bowls in front of the people already seated in the cafeteria. Regardless of the taste, the portion size is definitely enough to fill you up!

However, the senior's focus is really on strange things; he even specifically looked for places like this.

Nanase Touka thought to herself.

Chapter Seventy-Three: Unexpected Situation

Miyamoto ordered a bowl of udon noodles with an egg, while Nanase Touka ordered a chicken and egg rice bowl, which also had a lot of meat.

I tried it and found the taste wasn't particularly good, but the portion was really generous, and the price was cheap. This place really fits its positioning, which is to provide subway drivers with enough energy.

The two ate relatively quickly, since this could serve as lunch. After resting for a while, Miyamoto's phone rang.

"Is that Miyamoto-san?"

A slightly nervous voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yes, this is me. May I ask who you are?" Miyamoto asked.

"It really is Miyamoto-san, that's great!" The voice on the other end of the phone immediately relaxed a lot, and then said, "This is Aya Yamashita from AJS. May I ask when Miyamoto-san and Nanase-san will arrive? We can prepare a welcome ceremony and have a meal together or something."

Miyamoto was taken aback, then became somewhat embarrassed.

"I'm so sorry, Dongxia and I have already eaten at the station, and we just finished eating."

"Miyamoto-san and Nanase-san have arrived in Osaka? At the station?" someone asked, sounding somewhat surprised.

"Yes, we've arrived. We'll head to AJS's theater in a bit."

"Ah, we've already sent a bus over. Please wait a moment. Once the bus arrives, just take it to the theater!" the other end immediately replied.

Miyamoto was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, but still nodded: "Okay, I understand. Thank you so much."

"No, no, no trouble at all. The bus should be here in a few minutes. See you later!"

After hanging up the phone, Miyamoto put away his phone, his face still showing a thoughtful expression.

"Nana-senpai, what's wrong?" Nanase Touka asked curiously, seeing that Miyamoto Sei was still thinking.

"It's nothing, it's just that Yamashita Aya said she'd see us in a bit. I hope she's on the bus that's picking us up."
