I became a girl group idol for my sister.

Just as he was silently thinking about the plot of the movie and considering which parts might cause dissatisfaction among the audience, the lights in the movie theater went out, and then words appeared on the screen: the movie had finally started!

……

"Stop talking loudly, because when you talk, you're lowering the IQ of the whole street."

"Yes, you are brave, but bravery is actually the best synonym for stupidity, don't you think?"

The occasional sarcastic remarks in the movie brought smiles to the faces of the audience, and Miyamoto even heard someone muttering to themselves.

"Ah, I wish Nana-chan could scold me like that during the high-five party!"

"Wow, you think so too? Me too! I even want to be trampled under Nana-chan's feet!"

"Ugh! That's a really wicked idea, but I like it!"

Miyamoto was stunned, and it was obvious that many people around him were amused by the swearing he had used in the movie.

Sure enough, these people are all perverts!

Miyamoto silently pondered, carefully observing the expressions of the group present. Seeing their excitement from beginning to end, he suddenly felt that he had come for nothing, completely unaware of what he had done wrong!

After leaving the cinema, I opened my phone and browsed the forums, wanting to see what everyone thought of the movie after watching the premiere.

[Can I say this is amazing? Girls playing Sherlock Holmes and Watson are just too irresistible!]

I can't believe that an idol drama, I mean an idol movie, could be made to this standard. The scenes look a bit simple, but they are very realistic. The production team must have thought things through carefully, using scenes with locations that are easy to find. The props are also great, and the clues are presented very well. They don't just suddenly bring out something that wasn't there before as evidence.

Of course, I must say that the ending, the duel between Watson and Holmes, was completely unexpected! Who would have thought that Holmes's opponent, Moriarty, was actually Watson? This adaptation is simply brilliant! Moriarty, posing as Watson, gets close to Holmes and always has firsthand intelligence to make arrangements, but Holmes ultimately sees through Watson's true identity!

I looked it up, and this is Watson's first movie. She's never even acted in a TV series before; she's only done voice acting for games and animations. Her skill level is amazing!

As for the actor who played Sherlock Holmes, although I hadn't seen the previous movies, a quick search revealed they have excellent reviews, and the TV series is also very popular. I've decided to go watch them right now!

[It can only be said that the film was limited by its runtime. The three cases were eventually merged into one final case, making a total of four cases. If it could have been made into a TV series, it could probably have shown five or six cases, further emphasizing Moriarty's terrifying nature, and then featuring a showdown between the two. That would definitely have been much more exciting.]

[Nana-chan is so cute, I really want to hug her!]

[Miyu-chan is amazing! The way she loves Nana-chan, and the crazy desire to die for her, it's terrifying! I'm totally shipping them!]

Watson ultimately jumped off the cliff, leaving behind a final message. That message was undoubtedly intended to give Holmes pause for thought; even in death, this worry would linger in Holmes's mind. This is why Watson chose that location—given the technology of the time, it would have been impossible to retrieve someone who had sunk to the bottom.

[Although Japan has a lot of detective-themed content, most of it consists of anime and novels, with very few TV dramas and movies. Sherlock Holmes is mainly adapted from Western films and TV series, so I thought I'd never see it in my lifetime. But I never expected to see such a great adaptation! It's fantastic!]

[Nana-chan has once again proven one thing: idols are definitely not just about singing, dancing, and being cute! And this time, the proof is even more powerful because this is her third time participating in a highly successful project. Most importantly, this time she is working with Miyu Nagasu! Someone with no acting experience can achieve such results; perhaps those actors should really take a look.]

As for why I didn't mention Higashikuse Ogiko, she entered the entertainment industry much earlier than Miyamoto Nana, so she's considered a senior. Of course, she also joined as an idol, and her skill level wasn't as high back then as it is now. Her current level is quite impressive, and she's reportedly already taken on a new drama series that will start filming soon.

Miyamoto was taken aback when he saw this. He didn't know that Higashi Hisagi had received a new invitation to star in a TV drama, so he immediately searched for it and soon came across a news article.

The urban supernatural drama "Zero: Demon Slayer" is about to start filming, and Higashi Hisagi Ogiko has been confirmed to participate and play the role of the female lead. Koei Tecmo said that this is a plan to expand their games and to continue to extend the worldviews of their various works.

It is said that they had already come up with the relevant plan as early as 2010, but they encountered problems at that time, and now they are truly starting a full-scale plan.

This includes the currently developing game "Nioh," which is set in the Sengoku period, as well as the famous horror game "Fatal Frame" and its sequels, which are modern supernatural games. According to reports, after this drama series is completed, there will be more drama series based on "Nioh" storylines, aiming to combine their game universe with the TV series.

It's clear that Koei Tecmo has high ambitions for this new series, even entrusting the game development to the team that worked on Ninja Gaiden, and further increasing the budget on top of the original production costs, all in an effort to ensure the game's success.

After reading the news, Miyamoto immediately picked up his phone and sent a message to Higashikuze Ogiko.

【Senior Ogiko, congratulations on getting the female lead role!】

After waiting for a while, Miyamoto's phone rang. He looked at it and saw that it was Higashi Hisako calling.

It's clear that the other party chose to call directly instead of sending a text message.

Upon answering the phone, Miyamoto said, "Ogiko-senpai."

"Are you outside right now?" Higashi Hisashi Ogiko asked curiously on the other end of the phone.

"Yes, I'm outside, on my way home," Miyamoto replied honestly.

"You went to see your own movie?"

Hearing this, Miyamoto was somewhat surprised that the other party had been able to guess that he had gone to the movie theater.

"Yes, Ogiko-senpai, I'm going to see a movie."

"I checked the reviews, and it seems to be a great success." Higashikuze Ogiko continued on the other end of the phone, "Not only you, but Miyu's performance was also fantastic. This has served as a warm-up for the general election. I'm now looking forward to seeing what the general election will be like."

“You’re welcome to come and see, senior!” Miyamoto Sei immediately said.

"Do you think I'm the kind of person who doesn't have anything to do all the time?" Higashi Hisashi Ogiko said with a smile. She was lying on the sofa with her legs stretched out, her long, beautiful legs exposed in the room, visible only to her.

Miyamoto walked down the street. The movie theater was close to where he lived, so he could just walk back.

"Senior Ogiko, I'm really looking forward to this drama you've taken on. I'll definitely be watching it!"

"It's really quite good. It's said to be the story of the descendants of the protagonist of the next game, slaying demons in present-day Japan. But after looking at the plot of the game 'Fatal Frame,' I think it should be called 'ghosts' rather than 'demons.'"

"It's definitely a ghost, but since it's called Demon Slayer Chronicles, I think the official team must have created their own world view. This world view is quite scary. At least from the games I've played, this world looks the same as our real world, but in reality, it's very different. Gods and demons are all re-defined."

"Reset?"

"I think Ogiko-senpai should take a look at the plot of Ninja Gaiden, because Ninja Gaiden, Dead or Alive and other games share the same world view. Now it is said that the character you are playing is the descendant of the protagonist of the upcoming game Nioh, which means that Nioh will be added to this world view."

Miyamoto said this, while Higashikuze Ogiko carefully wrote it all down.

After Miyamoto finished speaking, he suddenly smiled and said, "But Ogiko-senpai, aren't you afraid of filming a ghost movie?"

"What am I afraid of? I've read the plot. According to the plot, if an ordinary person encounters a ghost or something like in 'Fatal Frame,' it would definitely be extremely dangerous. But my character is designed so that even if the crisis is increased a hundredfold, I can still handle it."

"Let me think. The concept is called a guardian spirit. It means that I will be protected by some animals with divine power. These animals are actually similar to gods. One of the gods can protect me and bring me back to life after I die. So if you have to say, my character is even scarier than those ghosts."

Hearing this spoiler, Miyamoto Sei became even more itchy: "Ogiko-senpai, if you keep saying this, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight!"

"Because you're afraid of ghosts?"

"No, I want to know what exactly happened in the story!"

"Well, there's nothing I can do about that. I can't go into the specifics. What I've said so far is the limit. So try to fall asleep slowly and carefully tonight. If you really can't fall asleep, try to expend some energy so you can fall asleep."

After saying that, Higashikuze Ogiko said, "Alright, you should be home by now, right?"

"Huh? How did you know, senpai?" Miyamoto looked at the building in front of him. Once inside, he could take the elevator up and naturally get to his home.

“I can roughly estimate how long it will take, since you'll probably choose a movie theater near your home, making it easier to get back,” Higashikuze Ogiko said. “And I can also roughly determine your location based on the sounds coming from your phone.”

Miyamoto was both surprised and impressed, and finally said with great admiration, "Ogiko-senpai, I think if you want to change careers in the future, you can try becoming a private detective."

"Then there's no need. After all, you're the professional detective, aren't you, Miss Yoko Holmes?"

"That's just a movie; I'm not that amazing in real life."

"Okay, I'm hanging up now," Higashikuze Ogiko said. Just as Miyamoto thought she was about to hang up, he suddenly heard her say, "Good luck with the performance in New York!"

"Don't worry, senior, we will all work hard!"

While casually flipping through the news, Yukari Kojima lay on the table, letting the sun shine on her body.

"Yukari!" Suddenly, a figure appeared from behind and hugged Yukari Kojima. Yukari laughed, "Okay, okay, what are you doing? Haruna!"

"I saw you looking so listless here, so I came over out of curiosity!" Matsumoto Haruna appeared in front of Kojima Yukari. The two were good friends in high school, and both of them were the kind of girls who were considered "gyaru" (gal) in their youth, but now they both seemed very mature.

"No, it's just that the sun feels so nice, I feel sleepy just lying in it..." Yukari Kojima said, yawning before asking, "Is there something you need?"

"I'm here to have my fortune told!" Matsumoto Haruna said with a chuckle. "You're probably planning to get a part-time job, aren't you?"

"I've already started working," Yukari Kojima smiled. "I have to go support Nana-chan this time too!"

“Speaking of which, you seem a bit different all of a sudden…” Matsumoto Haruna looked Kojima Yukari up and down: “You seem much more relaxed now, did something happen during winter break?”

"Have it?"

“Yes!” Matsumoto Haruna nodded seriously: “It’s like you suddenly realized something. Did you find someone else you like? And decided to let go?”

"I don't like anyone else!" Yukari Kojima protested against the slander, then laughed. "Actually, I still think I like Miyamoto-kun, but how should I put it? I suddenly feel that I need to pay more attention to myself and the people around me, instead of just focusing on Miyamoto-kun."

"Oh, so you suddenly went to have a heart-to-heart talk with some monk or something?"

Yukari Kojima shook her head: "No, I just ran into Nana-chan when I went to the hot springs, and we chatted for a bit. I found that what she said made a lot of sense."

"What?! You ran into your idol while soaking in a hot spring?!"

"Yes, I ran into Nana-chan!" Yukari Kojima smiled broadly, making a peace sign. "I feel like I really hit the jackpot that time I went to the hot springs. I even soaked in the hot springs with Nana-chan!"

As Yukari Kojima finished speaking, she suddenly looked at Haruna Matsumoto and said, "I remember you also like Miyamoto-kun, don't you?"

"I gave up a long time ago. I can't even see him anymore, so there's nothing I can do. Besides, I'm so pretty, I'm sure I'll have a lot of suitors. I'll just choose one who's good to me!"

Seeing that her friend was so open-minded, Yukari Kojima stood up and took her hand.

"Come on, come with me for a walk, while the weather's nice!"

……

"Yukiko!"
