Japanese Entertainment: A Comeback Beginning from Bankrupt President

Haunted house investigation agency, or rather, third-party investigation agency.

"It seems this is a serious matter. I wonder if other agencies will take notice of it," Kazuya Sawashiro said, turning off the news and looking at Aki Amano across from him with a serious expression. "How about we release a video documenting your hair follicle testing to prove that you are an innocent celebrity?"

"puff……!"

Amano Aki sprayed a mouthful of soda all over the table.

This thunderous statement truly befits the world's most deserving manager. Amano Akira regretted not being able to break through that barrier and take advantage of his deep sleep to go over and give him two punches.

Amano Aki had the key to the room, but Sawashiro Kazuya had installed two locks.

"Okay, I admit I was a bit abrupt," Kazuya Sawashiro casually tossed a towel over Aki Amano's face. "Isn't your reaction a bit over the top? I thought you understood that I was joking and didn't really want you to do that."

"You just helped me register for Uber the day before yesterday, so can you tell me that was a joke too?" Even with his head covered, Aki Amano still managed to make his voice heard.

She can accept orders as soon as she logs in. Crazy rider Amano Aki, do you feel it?

"hey-hey…"

Kazuya Sawashiro gave an awkward smile, shifting the awkwardness away from the fact that the world was still as beautiful as ever.

"So? What about the takeout?" Amano Aki lifted the towel, her cold gaze fixed on Sawashiro Kazuya, who was pretending nothing was wrong. "I walked to and from school in middle school, and I transferred to a school in Tokyo very quickly, so I can't drive a bicycle, an electric scooter, or a car. Do you expect me to complete this project on foot?"

Upon hearing these words, Kazuya Sawashiro looked down at Aki Amano's legs.

Then he got kicked by Amano Aki.

"Look at your legs!"

She wasn't wrong; he was indeed looking at her legs, but apart from the cuffs of her pants, Kazuya Sawashiro didn't see anything else.

After reading it, Kazuya Sawashiro had another idea. He snapped his fingers and said, "Let's turn this into a series project, starting with learning to ride a bicycle. What are your thoughts?"

"I'd rather just watch the drama unfold and find out how many people are actually involved. I don't want to ride any bicycles," Aki Amano frankly stated his thoughts.

Since it was Ze Cheng Kazuya who made her say it, that's what she wants to do now.

It's so nice to just watch the drama unfold.

"I'd like to eat some too, but you know this melon isn't actually that tasty. We need to keep a low profile right now so we can attract attention."

Kazuya Sawashiro proposed an interesting theory: using a low profile to gain attention.

These two words don't seem like they can appear together, so he successfully piqued Amano Aki's curiosity. "Why not? I feel like all the young people in Tokyo are talking about this, why can't we?"

She has amazing teeth; she can even crack open a macadamia nut with her teeth.

But would a normal person use their teeth to crack open a macadamia nut?

"Okay, it seems you don't understand human nature very well, so let me explain it to you."

Kazuya Sawashiro stood up, treating Aki Amano as an innocent student and himself as a learned teacher.

Even without a blackboard, he could speak eloquently, so the lesson began.

"Human nature is complex, but what is most relevant to you and me this time is the kindest part of human nature, which is the common pursuit of beautiful things."

"In this incident, more and more celebrities are involved, labeled as evil, and condemned by the world, which is both naive and complex. So, one can't help but ask: is the entertainment industry full of such filthy characters?"

Please have the students answer.

But Amano Aki was completely taken aback; her mind was full of questions. She asked, "Is this the Q&A session?"

"I hope you'll pay more attention next time, so you can answer now." Kazuya Sawashiro generously let Aki Amano off the hook.

"It's just that your sudden classes are too troublesome," Amano Aki complained, but in her heart she seriously considered Sawashiro Kazuya's question before replying, "I don't think so. There are still quite a few people in the entertainment industry who remain untainted by the mud."

Not everyone is captivated by the allure of the world; there are still some normal people who are.

"You guessed right. So have you ever considered that your name might actually be among these people?"

"Eh?!" Amano Aki laughed a little embarrassedly after being asked that by Sawashiro Kazuya.

I never would have guessed! She's such a noble person. And she even praised herself a little by accident just now, which makes me even happier.

Without needing any further explanation from Kazuya Sawashiro, Aki Amano finished writing the answer sheet and handed it in.

"Oh ho ho, so when they think of me, I'm doing ordinary things like everyone else, completely unaffected and undisturbed. That way, they'll think of my good points and transfer some of their expectations of Yoshioka Yuko onto me, right...?"

He kept babbling on and on; in short, he was narcissistic.

This kind of situation happens often, and it happened to the two of them, so Kazuya Sawashiro wasn't surprised.

"Actually, you're quite smart when you're thinking about yourself," Kazuya Sawashiro praised her first, then calmed her restless heart. "So let's just focus on doing our own thing. Tomorrow, come with me to practice cycling. Let's try to learn it in ten minutes."

"Ten minutes?"

"Is it long? I learned how to ride it when I first got on, and I was even thinking of taking care of you."

"...No, this is too short."

...

The incident involving Yuko Yoshioka continued to escalate the following day.

The two people at the center of the incident arrived at the familiar Shiba Park, riding the wind and sunshine, and met up with Tachibana Misaki, who had come there pushing her bicycle.

Kazuya Sawashiro came to the conclusion that Misaki Tachibana, who was a few years younger than him, was more reliable than Aki Amano, who only became smart when thinking about herself, and Kazuya Sawashiro, who had never taught anyone to ride a bicycle.

Whether it was preparing the bicycle or teaching Aki Amano to ride, she did it all very well. It was as if Misaki Tachibana was born to do this.

In just five minutes, Amano Aki was already able to ride his bicycle around the park.

"She looks like an angel. I think it would be better if we taught her to ride a bike sooner?" Kazuya Sawashiro stood side by side with Misaki Tachibana, looking at Aki Amano riding her bike with the satisfaction of an old father.

"What angle are you looking at?" Tachibana Misaki subtly shifted her position, glancing up at Sawashiro Kazuya. "Did I miss some heartwarming scene? After all, you know I've been busy preparing for university entrance exams lately."

"Moved, simply moved, from the perspective of the agency president."

Misaki Tachibana nodded after hearing this: "That's really touching. Seeing your child learn to ride a bicycle. I remember my dad saying the same thing when I learned to ride a bike."

"It seems we have a lot in common, so could you arrange for me to meet your father? Maybe he can recommend a good tutoring center so I can arrange for Amano to attend classes there."

My father said that life is the best teacher.
