"So, what's your choice? Continue with the original performance plan, or postpone it?" Osaki Kazuto continued, "If we postpone it, the operations team requires us to postpone it until the very end. That means the Oita and Fukuoka performances will both be combined. Not only will you have two full-capacity performances in one day, but the personnel arrangements and other aspects will also require twice the manpower and funding."

At this point, he looked at everyone and said, "If you can't be prepared to die, then don't choose this path. Just continue with the performances according to the previous plan."

The choice was now thrown to everyone, but Miyamoto Sei was not included, since it was originally his suggestion. As for such an outrageous request, Miyamoto Sei could easily guess that it was Amagai Risa's idea.

A desperate gamble, a do-or-die situation—she deliberately put these little girls in this position, so that even if they failed, nothing would really happen. But at least she wanted to give them this opportunity to choose.

It can also be called a trial.

Because it was a trial, the choice was difficult, and this terrible pressure pressed down on everyone at this moment.

If they fail, they're finished, and they'll never be able to pursue an idol career again... This is what many people think, and it's also a concern for many.

"Um... if I go to the supermarket every night to shop, can I buy really cheap bento boxes?" Xiaoyu Yao raised her hand and said softly, "If possible, just buy me those bento boxes in the future. They're cheap and not bad at all."

Everyone looked at Xiaoyu Yao, whose expression hardened: "Everyone, let's all cheer each other on! Making the W performance, which spans two counties, satisfy more audiences—isn't that our duty as idols?!"

Moriyasu also raised her hand: "I... I can bring my own lunch..."

"I don't need your travel expenses anymore. You can keep the funds for the working group!"

"That's right, I don't want commuting fees anymore!"

"Anyway, I can ride my bicycle here by myself, which can also be a form of exercise, and I can use the time saved to do other things!"

"My desire to become an idol is real, and I'm sure everyone's is too, right? In that case, let's show the audience what we truly hope to do and what a great performance we want to create!"

"So please, Tailfin Dominator, let us postpone this time!"

Seeing everyone's statements, Miyamoto Sei finally breathed a sigh of relief. If they chose to continue according to the original plan, then Miyamoto Sei had no other choice. If they didn't even dare to take a chance, then the road ahead would be difficult to open up.

Looking at the resolute expressions on the girls' faces, Heiji gritted his teeth. These girls, who usually loved to act cute, were showing such determination at this moment. He remained silent for a moment before finally saying, "I understand, but remember this: failure is not an option. The final W performance must be a success!"

"Thank you so much, I'm sorry for the trouble!"

"There's not much time left, let's intensify our training!"

"Assemble on stage in five minutes!"

Seeing everyone suddenly busy, Miyamoto Sei felt relaxed. He checked the time; if they started training now, the total training time for today should be about an hour longer than usual. Moreover, the next few days would definitely be high-intensity training. He suddenly felt a sense of anticipation, wondering what kind of effect the final W performance would bring.

However, he had other things to take care of before that.

"Yoshimi-chan, do you have time after training?" Miyamoto called out to someone, Sonozaki Yoshimi, the girl with slightly dark skin and a bit of scheming, with whom he had stayed in a campervan for one night before.

When Yoshimi Sonozaki was startled by Nana Miyamoto's sudden call and saw the smile on the other woman's face, she immediately nodded and said, "I have time, Nana-senpai!"

"Okay, then I'll talk to you after training. There are some things I want to discuss with you."

"Okay, senior, I understand!"

"Go practice then, and don't get distracted while you're practicing." After saying that, Miyamoto Sei ran towards the stage. There were some things that needed to be dealt with quickly once discovered...

Chapter 127 Closing Performance

People can unleash greater potential, or strength, than usual under greater pressure.

The strength that DJH members displayed at this moment, in the face of the subsequent W performance and the criticism from the audience, surprised even Miyamoto Sei.

Completely different from their usual enthusiasm, it's as if they suddenly discovered they had an enemy, and they embarked on intense training in order to defeat that enemy, unfolding exactly like a typical shonen manga.

After finishing training, Miyamoto saw Sonozaki Yoshimi come up to him.

"Nana-senpai, I'm here!" Sonozaki Ryomi said happily. Of course she was happy to be approached by such a popular member of SKR. If she could seize the opportunity, her popularity could skyrocket in the future!

If you're lucky, you might get more opportunities, or even the center position for some singles!

To become a famous idol, you must make full use of all kinds of resources, and by any means necessary!

The most important thing for an idol is to generate buzz!

I've now seen this opportunity!

Miyamoto looked at Sonozaki Yoshimi who had come up to him and said, "Let's go for a walk. There are some things I want to talk to you about."

"Ok!"

The two walked out and came to a secluded spot. Miyamoto Sei's expression darkened slightly: "Can you explain this to me?"

Miyamoto took out his phone and handed it to the other person. Sonozaki Yoshimi was startled by the change in the other person's expression. She quickly took the phone and looked at the contents. Her eyes widened in surprise.

"This...this wasn't me!"

"Didn't you do it?" Miyamoto asked, looking into the other's eyes. Sonozaki Yoshimi's expression looked innocent, but her eyes darted around, clearly showing her panic, and it was panic caused by her guilt.

The content on the phone is very simple; it's just a regular push notification.

There was blood everywhere first thing in the morning, and it smelled awful!

The accompanying image is still by Haruka Ranbe.

Judging from Yoshimi Sonozaki's reaction, Miyamoto Sei was certain that she posted it, and that the account originally belonged to her.

"I...I haven't been on Twitter for the past few days, my account must have been hacked!" Sonozaki Yoshimi said, taking out her phone, frantically opening Twitter, and very skillfully deleting the tweet.

Miyamoto sighed: "Treating your comrades as rivals is true for SKR, but even rivals should be defeated head-on, not by thinking of other ways... Since you said your account was hacked this time, then even if your account was hacked, don't forget that when one person breaks the rules and others also break the rules, the one who breaks the rules first will be ganged up on."

Sonozaki Yoshimi's face was very pale. She felt a burning sensation on her cheeks, just like when her secret feelings were exposed in elementary school. If this were made public, she would definitely be looked down upon by everyone...

But if they just stubbornly deny it... but in the current situation, what's the point of admitting it or not? The other side clearly seems convinced that I did it, even though it's true that I did it...

Yoshimi Sonozaki felt incredibly overwhelmed. She had thought she could lower her opponent's popularity, but instead, it had brought her a lot of trouble.

Seeing the other woman's flustered state, Miyamoto knew that directly confronting her wouldn't be very useful. Now that she had been discovered to have done something wrong, Sonozaki Yoshimi was probably more blaming herself for being careless than for making a mistake.

Sometimes, it's only when you actually stumble and fall because of something you did wrong that you realize you've made a mistake, or when you realize that even if you use some underhanded tricks, you can't get enough benefit and it might even bring worse results, that people with bad intentions will give up using bad methods.

The former is difficult to achieve now, while the latter can only be achieved over time, because it is impossible for the other party to discover that such a method is meaningless in a short period of time.

His purpose today was simply to leave a thorn in the other person's side, so that they would remember this day when doing similar things in the future, and also to make the other person delete the matter of Ranbu Haruka.

That child is experiencing her first period. If she's talked about it too much, it might leave a bad impression on her. We need to observe her carefully for a while, just in case.

However, perhaps because Sonozaki Rami wasn't particularly famous at the time, there weren't many people following her on Twitter. And since most people understand that menstruation is something that happens at first, there weren't any harsh words directed at her. Instead, many people left question marks and similar comments.

It can only be said that Yoshimi Sonozaki chose the wrong topic.

"Alright, since you've deleted it, keep training hard. This is crucial for whether you can pursue an idol career." Miyamoto Sei stopped pressuring them. "However, I believe this performance will be a success. If it is, you can become truly recognized idols. If you want to move forward then, you'll need to show enough real talent!"

Seeing that Sonozaki Yoshimi was still a little nervous and at a loss, Miyamoto sighed, then reached out and patted her shoulder: "You too, because you are also a member of DJH. Only if you work hard, and everyone works hard, can we get through this crisis. Besides, you have a lot of potential. I believe that if you keep up the good work, you can really attract others."

"I...I have a lot of potential?" Sonozaki Yoshimi raised her head, looking at the senior who had just terrified her.

"Yes, so this time, let's try to really put in the effort, on stage, not elsewhere."

"Nana-senpai... I... I understand... I'll give it a try..."

"Okay, let's go then, don't keep the others waiting too long."

……

After several days of intense training, aside from announcements, activities, and time for sleeping and eating, almost all the other time was spent on dance and singing practice. For the members of DJH, this level of training was unprecedented.

Even when she first joined DJH and underwent grueling training that left her exhausted, she seems quite adorable compared to now.

Even so, no one gave up. As time passed, everyone's expressions became more and more serious, because they knew that the moment that would determine their future was approaching.

Finally, after several days, the Grand Guild's Fukuoka W performance officially began!

In the pitch-black venue, the atmosphere was stirred up by the exciting opening.

To support their fans, those who had traveled from other places, and local audiences who had bought tickets all cheered at this moment, eager to see what DJ H was like.

They waited for DJH to take the stage, especially those who knew that DJH's tour had been postponed. They were even more excited to see what kind of final product DJH, who had chosen to postpone the tour instead of continuing according to the normal plan, could produce!

However, the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment will be when things don't go as planned!

This is both an opportunity and a crisis!

As the music started, the girls rushed out from backstage and onto the stage. They laughed and looked at the audience below. Even though they were so nervous at the moment, when they stepped onto the stage, it was as if they had already formed muscle memory and immediately got into the zone.

The energetic opening immediately captured the audience's attention, and as this warmed up the atmosphere, the girls on stage were also affected, becoming even more radiant.

Every woman standing on the stage hopes to be the center of attention!

Even a group of thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls yearn for their own light to shine and become dazzling stars.

Backstage, watching this scene, Ootori's tense heart finally relaxed a little. Meanwhile, in faraway Tokyo, Amagai Risa was also watching the live broadcast.

"They actually chose to go on stage first?" Risa Amagai looked at Miyamoto Sei, who was standing in the crowd performing with her, and laughed.

"Miyamoto chose to go first?" Hasegawa Subaru asked in surprise, while also going over to the table to watch the live stream. This was an internal live stream; DJH's performance would be uploaded online later and wouldn't be streamed live. "Is he planning to warm up the audience himself?"

“Warming up is very important for stage performances, which is why I chose to do it myself. Only by truly getting the atmosphere in the venue lively can those kids understand what idols really need, because the atmosphere of the venue will naturally teach them that.” As Tenbe Risa said this, she turned off the screen.

"Aren't you going to keep watching?" Subaru Hasegawa asked, but Risa Amagai shook her head: "No need to watch anymore, because they've already passed the test."

It wasn't just Miyamoto; everyone else was displaying a different demeanor than before, especially the children… They had all grown tremendously. Compared to before, they possessed newfound confidence. Although the pressure brought a sense of crisis, the training had instilled in them confidence, which was truly rare…

Risa Ambelli thought for a moment, picked up the calendar, looked at it, and suddenly said, "What do you think about announcing it on March 27th?"
