Looking at the others again, Kaname Rakuna had disappeared from the recording studio, while Nagasaki Shoyo and Chihaya Aine seemed to have decided where to go next and were ready to leave the recording studio. Shiina Ryuki left in silence.

Looking at Shiina Riki's leaving back, Takamatsu Deng raised his head, his eyes fell on her, he opened his mouth slightly, but didn't know what to say to comfort her.

After the other person's figure disappeared, Takamatsu Deng looked at Nagasaki Souyo cautiously again.

Noticing that the other party was not looking at him, Takamatsu Deng clenched his left hand in front of him, said goodbye to Nagasaki Shoyo and Chihaya Aine, and left the recording studio.

"It feels... a little bit strange. In this situation, does it mean that Li Xi is the only one who is excluded?"

Chihaya Aion has been paying attention to her surroundings. Seeing Shiina Tateki leaving in disappointment and Takamatsu Tomori who was obviously going to meet Izumi, Chihaya Aion suddenly began to sympathize with Shiina Tateki.

But when she thought about it carefully, she found that she seemed to have no right to sympathize. She looked at Nagasaki Souyo beside her and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

"Well, let's stay over at my house tonight. Do you want to invite Quan to join us?"

"Eh?"

Suddenly hearing Nagasaki Shoyo's question, Chihaya Aine was stunned for a moment, then she thought of her brother who might meet Takamatsu Deng, so she hurried to cover for her brother.

"But... when he gets to Shuangshi's apartment, he will sleep alone in a room at night, right? And Shuangshi's apartment is so big, he may not be able to get used to it. Let's just forget it, right?"

When Nagasaki Shoyo's gaze fell on Chihaya Aine's face, Chihaya Aine suddenly felt that the other's gaze was somewhat meaningful.

"..."

"Well, I don't know when mom will be home, and Quan doesn't seem to be very good at dealing with mom, so let's just forget it."

As if she had heard some extraordinary news, Chihaya Aine was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly and left the 'Ring' with Nagasaki Soushi.

Shiina Riki was originally going to leave the 'Ring' directly, but when she was leaving, she was stopped by her senior, who told her that there would be some changes in her working hours the day after tomorrow. When she noted the changes and walked out of the 'Ring', she saw Takamatsu Tomori who was waiting for the red light.

"..."

After opening his mouth, Shiina Riki found that he seemed to have nothing to communicate with Takamatsu Deng. He sighed dejectedly, lowered his eyelids, and thought about going home and being alone, but then he thought of Takamatsu Deng's evasive eyes.

"What happened?"

Shiina Riki was confused and concerned.

Green light.

Pedestrians began to pass.

Seeing Takamatsu Deng crossing the road, Shiina Riki thought of Takamatsu Deng's previous reaction and couldn't help biting her lips. Looking at the other person's back, as if she had made some kind of decision, she quickly followed, but kept a certain distance from Takamatsu Deng.

"Could it be that the lamp was deceived by some bad guy? Such a simple lamp...if someone deceived her..."

Some bad images flashed through Shiina Riki's mind, and she suddenly became worried about Takamatsu Deng's safety.

'Just take a look, and if there's nothing wrong, go back.'

487

Chapter 487 Are you starting to talk in your sleep too?

When meeting with Takamatsu Deng, Izumi did not agree with the other party to meet at his own apartment.

On the one hand, there was nothing much to do in his apartment. She could only sit on the sofa in the living room and stare blankly, or go into the bedroom and simply vent her physical desires. It was not easy for Takamatsu Deng to stay in his apartment overnight, and it was obviously not a good idea to let her leave alone and tired.

Given Takamatsu Teru's personality, it's not impossible to go shopping with her in crowded places, but when you go to crowded places, the probability of running into acquaintances will increase, even if she and Nagasaki Souyo are not in the same school.

After seeing Takamatsu Deng enter the botanical garden, Shiina Riki stopped, looked at the entrance in front of her, and fell into silence.

"Here... is there something going on with her?"

She knew that Takamatsu Deng had some special interests, such as picking up stones of different shapes or observing insects. Many things that girls were not interested in, but Takamatsu Deng would show unusual interest.

Now, it seems that there is nothing wrong with the other party coming to the botanical garden alone.

'Would you like to come in?'

Standing in front of the door, Shiina Riki was in a dilemma. If she entered the botanical garden now, she might be able to have an "encounter" with Takamatsu Tomori by chance. Even though she herself would find it a little embarrassing to do so, she just wanted to see if Takamatsu Tomori was deceived by someone.

"..."

After thinking and struggling for a while, Shiina Riki gave up on entering the botanical garden and turned away silently.

"I'd better not go in and disturb her. I'll wait until next time and invite her to come along."

Already knowing what Takamatsu Deng was interested in, Shiina Riki felt that there was no need for him to force an "encounter" with the other party. Instead, they could wait until next time to come together and have more time to spend together.

……

"spring."

Sitting on a bench in the botanical garden, Quan was browsing the official account of the publishing house. Even though his work has not started selling yet, the publishing house has already started warming up for it.

Hearing the familiar voice, he looked from the screen of his mobile phone to the direction where the voice came from. Takamatsu Deng, who was still wearing her school uniform, slowly came to him with an apology and a little shyness on her face.

"Did you wait long?"

The girl gives people a very special feeling. It is hard to associate her with an ordinary female high school student. Without looking at her school uniform, just based on her personality, she gives people the feeling more like a young middle school student.

Although a little immature, the feeling he gives people is completely different, and Quan doesn't hate him.

Smiling, he asked the girl to sit next to him, then he asked about her band activities today, and especially asked about Shiina Riki's reaction during this period.

Even though he didn't pay much attention to Shiina Riki, when Izumi asked him about it, Takamatsu Deng still answered with what he knew.

But he himself did not pay special attention to Shiina Tatsuki, so in Takamatsu Deng's mouth, Shiina Tatsuki seemed to be nothing unusual.

After chatting briefly and letting Takamatsu Deng rest for a while, the two browsed in the botanical garden for a while and went to a bookstore. When it was dark, Quan walked him to the station and then returned to his apartment.

……

"Ah, kotatsu..."

Izumi returned to the apartment and after entering the house, he suddenly remembered that he forgot to buy a kotatsu.

Although the house is heated by air conditioning, the electricity bill is still a bit high. Besides, the kotatsu and air conditioning give people different feelings. Izumi prefers the feeling of lying in the kotatsu.

"Although the electricity bill for a kotatsu won't be much lower."

Quan doesn't use the kotatsu just for warmth, the main purpose is that it allows people to sit together. When other people come to his house as guests, the kotatsu can bring people closer together, and he can also test who smells the strongest.

"I'll send these two books to Yekong when I leave tomorrow."

The books that he bought while accompanying Takamatsu Deng to the bookstore were wrapped in paper by Quan. After ensuring that the books would not be damaged by violent transportation, he slowly walked to his sofa and sat down.

'I don't know if she will see my work, or how she will react if she does.'

After thinking about it carefully, there didn't seem to be many people around him who liked reading. Takamatsu Deng, who had gone to the bookstore with him before, didn't go there because he liked books, but to browse the fossil shop in the bookstore, where there were a wide variety of fossils and minerals, as well as animal specimens.

"There is almost no risk of exposure."

After chuckling, Quan, sitting on the sofa, thought that his sister was going to spend the night at Nagasaki Soyo's house tonight, and Goto Ichiri had no band activities today, so he went home early, and no one came back to him.

He opened his cell phone and found Fujita Kotone's contact information, and sent her a text message.

【receive. 】

About five minutes after the message was sent, Fujita Kotone sent a reply to Izumi.

After Quan had finished dinner alone, took a shower in the bathroom, put on his pajamas and watched an idol show, the doorbell rang at the door.

"come in."

"Excuse me?~"

Fujita Kotone walked into the house with a smile. After entering the house with Izumi, her eyes fell on Izumi and asked what she was here to do today.

"What do you need me to do today?"

"Watch the show with me."

Her eyes fell on the girl. The request given by Izumi was very simple, which made Fujita Kotone stunned for a moment. Then she suspected that it was some strange program. When she followed Izumi's request and came to his side, she saw the program being played and realized that it was an idol program.

"Ah, it's NGZK46..."

"Know?"

"I definitely know this famous group, and I also..."

Fujita Kotone looked at the group members who appeared on the show and a hopeful look appeared on her face. But after a moment, she sighed and withdrew her gaze.

Seeing that Fujita Kotone was interested in this group, he asked the girl which member she supported. After Fujita Kotone gave the answer, he also asked about the member that Izumi recommended.

After hearing Izumi's answer, Fujita Kotone looked thoughtful.

"Boys, do you really like petite and cute girls?"

“No, I originally supported Hashimoto, but after she left the group and retired from the entertainment industry, I started supporting her.”

"what……"

Fujita Kotone also suddenly remembered the idol senior who had gradually faded from everyone's sight. The other party's original situation was similar to hers. It was said that she joined the idol group because of the lunch box. Her family background was also very difficult. When she was the poorest, even the water, electricity and gas were cut off.

“That person…”

It has been so long that Fujita Kotone almost forgot about that senior. It seemed that after earning enough money to pay for her and her brother's tuition, she immediately retired from the entertainment industry.

It was hard for Fujita Kotone not to think about her own family situation. She was also doing this for her family, but her goal was not just to pay for her and her brother's tuition. She wanted to earn more so that her family could live a rich life and wait for her father who had run away from home to return...

The two chatted about idols, and the topic gradually shifted to the idols' income. Later, when they saw the idol being scared to tears on the show, they gradually talked about the hardships of becoming an idol.

Unconsciously, Fujita Kotone felt slightly sleepy. The expression on her face became tired and her body repeatedly leaned towards Izumi. However, she tried hard to stay awake, but still could not resist the invasion of sleepiness. Her body gradually leaned on Izumi's shoulder and she fell asleep.

"..."

His shoulders felt heavy, and Izumi steadily supported Fujita Kotone who had fallen asleep leaning against him.

He tilted his head slightly and looked at the girl who was sleeping on him. The other person's defenseless and cute face made Quan have some different thoughts in his heart.

After taking out his mobile phone, Izumi pointed the camera at himself and Fujita Kotone, and with a "click", a photo of the two of them was taken.

'lifetime. '

As long as this photo is left, the other person will never be able to escape his influence for the rest of his life as long as he follows the path of being an idol.

Thinking of this, Quan couldn't help but want to laugh out loud, but fortunately he held it back.

When Fujita Kotone heard the shutter sound, she just frowned but did not open her eyes to wake up. It can be seen that she was very sleepy. Even if she quit those unnecessary jobs as requested by Izumi, her daily life still put a great burden on her.

"There was even a case where I almost fainted during the Red and White Song Contest. Being an idol is not an easy job."

Idols managed by agencies of all sizes are basically regarded as tools to be exploited. Not only do they have low incomes, they still have to work intensively every day. That is, after "graduation", they can only earn the income of a normal artist by relying on their original traffic.
