I became a girl group idol for my sister.

“It will... it will force us to withdraw from the group…” Shiigan Minami whispered. Yasunaga Mai was so scared that she didn’t dare to speak. This was the first time she had ever seen Amagai Risa so angry.

"Leave the group? I have no intention of letting you leave the group." Lisa Tenbei glanced at the three of them: "I will try my best to keep you here, but this is just my personal opinion. If I were to consider it from the company's perspective, I should indeed let you leave, but I'm giving you another chance because I need to give the fans an answer!"

She glanced at Shiigaki Minami, then at Yasunaga Mai, before saying, "For example, I should temporarily dismiss you all and let you start developing from underground idols again. At least you need to let your fans see that you have corrected your mistakes."

At this moment, Shiigaki Minami slowly raised her hand: "I... I was actually thinking all night about what I should do if the worst-case scenario Nana-chan mentioned happened. I thought about it for a long time, and I think I might completely lose hope in myself... Then..."

Risa Tenbei frowned: "You're not saying you don't want to live anymore, are you?"

“No, no… If I were to commit suicide, I would be letting down my fans. This is just running away…” Shiigaki Minami shook her head and then said something that shocked everyone present: “I, I will shave my head and do a live broadcast on TV to apologize to fans all over the world, and continue to stay with SKR to pay for this mistake!”

Yasunaga Mai stared at the other person with wide eyes: "Mi-chan!"

Her voice sounded rather shrill; clearly, she was quite frightened.

"Are you crazy!" Miyamoto Sei bluntly stated, "This is absolutely not a good idea. Even if something happens in the future, never do such a thing. If something happens, seek help from others, such as me, Minami-senpai, or even Amagai-P!"

"What do you mean 'I can do it too'? You should have come to me first!" Risa Amagai immediately said. Then she looked at Minami Shiigishi and advised, "Don't do anything stupid. If you do, come to me first and explain. I've been in this business longer than any of you. I know how to handle this! If you really do this, it won't just be your problem anymore. You'll be putting the entire SKR team, including your own fans, on the fire."

“That’s right, never do something like that!” Miyamoto Seya advised again, then looked at Amagai Risa: “This news should be fine. It says that we just went to greet them and congratulate them on their victory before leaving.”

After saying that, he even defended a few people: "Actually, this news should have a positive impact on SKR."

“You’re right, a positive impact.” Risa Amagai glanced at Miyamoto Sei: “I’m so glad you two took her with you last night. You were very good at handling emergencies. But most importantly, I don’t want this kind of positive impact, because it’s hard for it to happen. If you’re not careful, you can ruin your own future. That’s why I’m so angry!”

She sighed at this point: "Actually, I'm not saying I'm against you dating. If you weren't idols, I would wish you to find true love. But remember, these guys aren't good men. Two football players are a different story. As long as they don't break the law, nothing will happen to them. Who cares if you find a girlfriend while watching a football game?"

“Let’s talk about this Shirahama Alan. He has the same profession as you, except he’s a boy band idol. He’s handsome and quite good at acting. He’s very good at fooling his fans. This isn’t just hooking them up; he’s planning to trick them into bed.” Amagai Risa said bluntly, “Just you wait. There’s a very high chance that this guy will be on the weekly Bentong magazine again in the future. Today is definitely not the last time.”

After saying that, she sighed again: "You guys need to be careful in the future. Although the weekly Bentong magazine praised you guys this time, saying that you adhered to the principles of idols, it also shows that these guys will continue to keep an eye on you. Be careful not to do anything bad, and don't be in a room with men, because even if you don't do anything, as long as they report it truthfully, it will cause great dissatisfaction among the fans."

Miyamoto shook his head: "It really is... somewhat morbid..."

Risa Tenbei shrugged: "That's what being an idol is all about. If you choose this profession, you have to abide by it. If you're not satisfied, you have to work hard. Once you can transition into a singer or actor, you won't have these constraints anymore. Actually, that's what I hope you all learn. There are all sorts of strict rules here, but you have to learn them here. When you're ready, you can go out and pursue your dreams. I've said this before, and I'll say it again today: before graduation, don't make any big mistakes."

With their heads bowed, Shiigaki Minami and Yasunaga Mai cautiously admitted their mistakes to Amagai Risa, who waved them away.

However, just as Miyamoto was about to leave, he was stopped by Amagai Risa.

"Miyamoto, wait a moment, I have something to tell you."

Shiigaki Minami and Yasunaga Mai immediately turned to look at Miyamoto Sei, their eyes filled with doubt and unease. Shiigaki Minami even blurted out, "Teacher Amagai, actually Nana-chan didn't do anything last night. I was the one who pulled her away..."

“I know, I have something else to tell her,” said Risa Amagai. Miyamoto Seya gave the two of them a reassuring smile before they left.

After the two left, Miyamoto looked at Amagai Risa: "So you came to see me alone, what's the matter?"

“Compared to the two of them, you are the one who needs to be most careful about your safety,” Tambirisa said. “Does anyone else know about your current room?”

"My older sister and my younger sister."

"So, those two know your secret?"

“Only my sister knows…” Miyamoto said, “but she supports my choice.”

"I can tell, you're a good older sister. Your whole family is very kind." Tenbei Lisa smiled, then asked again, "Does the landlord know if you're a man or a woman?"

"I'm a man, because I usually dress as a man when I go back, and my older and younger sisters will definitely call me 'brother' and 'older brother'."

Hearing this, Risa Tenbei finally nodded as if she had confirmed something. She then took out a document and handed it to Miyamoto. Miyamoto was stunned when he saw it. It was a housing contract for an apartment building, located on the 30th floor. Judging from the contents of the contract, there were security guards who wouldn't let ordinary people in. It was heavily guarded.

"What's this for? Is it to help me move to a different place?"

“No, that one is for Miyamoto Sei, and this one is for Miyamoto Nana,” Amagai Risa said. “Don’t you think it’s dangerous to keep all your things in one place? Your sister probably found out about your true situation because of those things that belong to Miyamoto Nana, right?”

Miyamoto was silent for a moment before slowly saying, "I have considered renting another place, but is it really a good idea to find such an expensive place?"

“It’s not like you can’t afford it.” Risa Ambelli laughed. “Besides, you’ll have a lot of appearances coming up. This week’s Bentong content has given you another good advertisement, reaffirming that you’re an idol who’s very dedicated to your idol duties. Your popularity will definitely rise again. Compared to the tens of thousands of yen in rent for the house, ensuring your personal safety is obviously more important.”

"Moreover, this kind of apartment can effectively prevent you from being followed by those guys. After all, they can't go up there, and even if they did, it would be very difficult for them to find out which floor you are on. This way, you don't have to be so careful when changing clothes in the bathroom outside to get back to your home."

At this moment, Miyamoto had to admit that Amabe Risa was right. Although this place was expensive, it was safe. The sheer number of floors available was enough to give the reporters from Weekly Buntong a headache. In addition, there couldn't possibly be only a few people living here. He could change his clothes and return to his home without any problem.

It can be said that this place has indeed perfectly solved the biggest problem it is currently facing.

"By the way, you deliberately leaked Asuka Kirara's information to that reporter, didn't you?" Amagai Risa suddenly asked.

Miyamoto chuckled: "Give them a lesson. These three guys are disgusting; they're no good."

“A good lesson indeed, and the reporter was quite good too. He didn’t say it was you who exposed them. In fact, it would have been enough to cooperate with the photos of the group coming out together this morning. There was no need to drag you into this. He should be grateful that you ‘unintentionally’ leaked this information to him, which made him decide to continue waiting.” Risa Tenbei also laughed: “Dare to touch my SKR people, this is a good lesson.”

……

Inside the Bentong weekly newspaper, a few people who had finished printing today's newspaper were chatting.

"I really didn't expect that these girl group members would stick to their principles this time," the reporter from last night said, yawning. "I originally thought they would be with those guys, but unfortunately, it's not big news."

“Not bad, and isn’t it good that others are sticking to their word?” another person said. “But to be honest, the fans are happy, but for us reporters, these kinds of people are pretty boring…”

"Yeah, I looked it up, and it's really boring, especially this Miyamoto Nana. She's all over the idol trending topics, but the problem is that all she does is talk about being an idol. There's nothing about her personal life. I even looked into it, but I couldn't find anything. As soon as she finishes her work, she just vanishes like she's disappeared. She's such a shut-in!"

"Why are there always otaku in SKR? Watanabe Hikaru is an otaku too, so boring."

"Yeah, but it's pretty normal, isn't it? Didn't she say on the last show that she likes women? This makes it impossible for men to barge in... It actually makes fans feel more at ease."

"It's a pity we can't produce news anymore... After all, while we can report all sorts of gossip, we can't fabricate stories, it's part of our professional ethics..."

"Not bad. At least they participated this time. Even if it was just congratulations, it's enough for us to put it in the headline, which has greatly increased the explosiveness of the article's headline. We should thank the three of them." The newspaper's editor-in-chief suddenly said, "By the way, keep a close eye on that guy named Shirahama Alan. This guy will definitely get into trouble in the future. He's someone who can't control himself."

After speaking, he pondered for a moment, then slowly added, "Also, you should keep an eye on Miyamoto Nana. She may seem boring, but she might be hiding a huge secret. If we can dig it out, it could be a major news story."

At this point, he shrugged and said, "Of course, maybe she's just a boring person and not worth keeping an eye on. But we are Weekly Bentong, so of course we have to take the challenge. Besides, if we at Weekly Bentong can verify that Miyamoto Nana is indeed a very boring person, her fans will definitely be very happy."

With the newspaper editor-in-chief saying this, the group started to move again. Some went to catch up on sleep because they had stayed up all night, while others went to conduct interviews because they had slept well the night before. Naturally, there were also those who were keeping watch.

They can't just interview ordinary people or follow them, but celebrities and politicians are an exception. They are public figures, so being followed is not illegal for them.

As for being warned or retaliated against?

"We're the Bentong Weekly! We even track down murderers, so what are these guys?" The editor-in-chief smiled, looking very proud. He tossed his hand lightly, and a coin flew up before landing on the table.

The coin was upright, not fallen over. Looking at the upright coin, the editor-in-chief chuckled, "Anything is possible? So-called journalists are just digging up all these secrets!"

He glanced out the window and saw his colleagues coming downstairs, carrying cameras and other equipment, embarking on their journey once again.

So, what secret is this Miyamoto Nana hiding? It's really intriguing. If this girl, who is hailed as a future god and even challenged the god directly in the general election, were to do something that violates the idol code, it would definitely shock the whole of Japan!

Chapter 108 Being Followed

Miyamoto was completely unaware that he had attracted a great deal of attention from Weekly Buntong. However, he was always very careful not to be discovered by others, and these habits had almost become ingrained in his routine. Even if he knew that he was being watched, he was not very worried.

Unless it's an unexpected situation like Nanase Touka's, he doesn't think he'll be discovered.

Not to mention, he is actually safer now. With two residences, he can switch between two identities and travel back and forth between the two houses, making him a safe haven comparable to a secret agent, a situation that gives reporters a huge headache!

However, he had other things to do before moving.

Hi~ Hi~!

"Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi!"

This is SKR Theater, Team S's theater performance. The fans in the audience are already shouting in unison, as if they had rehearsed beforehand.

Moreover, their shouts were synchronized with the rhythm of Miyamoto Sei and the others jumping in front, with each shout hitting the beat of the drum.

"Ah—it's about to begin!"

"tiger! fire! cyber! fiber! diver! viber! JaJa!"

The moment the fans' shouts ended, the idols opened their mouths, and their voices came out from the speakers.

"Nana!"

"Nana!"

"Absolutely adorable! Nana!"

Miyamoto Sei, who was in the center position, stood at the very front. As the first person to sing, the fans shouted specific cheers at him.

It wasn't just him; as the dance moves and songs changed, the objects of his support also changed.

Although Miyamoto Nana temporarily replaced Watanabe Hikaru in the center position, no one in the audience expressed any dissatisfaction with this change.

It wasn't just Miyamoto Nana that convinced them, but also because Watanabe Hikaru's fans hoped she could get some rest today and not overwork herself to the point of health problems.

True fans are very concerned about their idols' health.

Miyamoto let loose, and at that moment, he stood on the stage as the center of Team S, and amplified his voice through the microphone, which merged with the voices of his teammates and echoed throughout the theater.

This is the best performance ever!

It felt like I was back in my graduate school days, when I took over the role of Higashi Hisaji Ogiko and became the center of Team S. It was from this position that I performed for the fans in the arena.

Under the spotlight, Miyamoto smiled as he looked around, meeting the eyes of each fan in the audience. Seeing their flushed faces, excited expressions, and the light in their eyes, Miyamoto smiled even more broadly.

The inner turmoil I felt last night was completely suppressed at this moment. Now I am just an idol, and can only be an idol!

I am the idol standing on this high platform, belonging to this theater, to all the lovers, regardless of gender!

That's all!

This was true until I graduated!

"Hey, hey, hey, Nana-chan seems completely different today!"
