Tokyo, the shady intelligence of private detectives

If the yoga instructor were Reika Takizawa, she would definitely be able to understand Masahiro Hanyu's performance.

The pose that Masahiro Hanyu is doing is a relaxation pose that Reika Takizawa often does when she rests at the yoga studio.

In order to make Takizawa Reika recognize him, Hanyu Masahiro specifically mentioned "NS" so that she could remember the address of the NS Building.

Takizawa Rika had met him before. Although she didn't know his name, she should know that he was an employee of the Shin-Yi Detective Agency.

This morning, she also managed to shake off Masahiro Hanyu's pursuit.

Takizawa Reika is being so cautious because she doesn't want people she knows to know what she's doing.

So when Masahiro Hanyu auditioned and said "You know what I mean!", Reika Takizawa probably met with him to protect his privacy.

Seeing how casual Yuzuru Hanyu was, the senior photographers in the studio secretly shook their heads and couldn't help but discuss among themselves!

"Hmm, what's wrong with the younger generation these days? They have absolutely no ambition!"

"Does being handsome give you the right to do whatever you want? That's incredibly disrespectful to the industry."

"Yes, what a yoga instructor would want to see is definitely not this kind of decadence or self-righteous seduction."

……

Ignoring the whispers among the male teachers present, Masahiro Hanyu sat next to his manager, Matsui, awaiting the results.

Matsui's manager takes Hanyu Masahiro's performance very seriously because this newcomer was recommended by Tanaka's assistant, so perhaps he knows some inside information.

He asked in a low voice, "Was there some deeper meaning behind Yuzuru-kun's self-recommendation?"

"After the first round of self-nomination, there will be a second round of situational performances. I heard that in the end, three actors will be selected to meet with the yoga instructor and make the final selection."

"Hanyu-kun, I hope... that all the artists who make it to the finals are my artists."

"If you have any inside information, feel free to share it. After all, I can offer opportunities to artists, not just yoga instructors."

In fact, Masahiro Hanyu still had some concerns about whether Reika Takizawa would choose to meet him.

If the yoga instructor were Reika Takizawa, she would have another solution in case someone knew about her privacy.

The solution is to choose not to see him, and then temporarily stop filming or choose to cooperate with other studios or companies.

Although the likelihood of her doing so is very small, it cannot be ruled out that this situation might occur.

In this situation, expanding her influence would increase Takizawa Reika's psychological pressure, making her more likely to choose to meet him due to concerns about privacy leaks.

Since there are three spots in the final selection, Masahiro Hanyu lowered his voice and said, "Manager Matsui, I have indeed heard some inside information, but it can only be known to your artist."

Matsui's manager nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, Yuzuru-kun, I can guarantee it."

Masahiro Hanyu leaned close to Matsui's ear and said, "Besides the movements I just did, mentioning the word 'faith' will make it easier to gain the favor of yoga instructors."

"As for the exact reason, I have no idea."

Matsui's manager suddenly realized, "Oh, I understand now, thank you, Hanyu-kun! I'll definitely think of you if I have any filming opportunities in the future."

Matsui got up and quietly told Kato and Mukaiyama the news.

Just then, a man in his fifties or sixties approached and asked, "Excuse me, I'd like to ask you a question. Is 'NS' a popular slang term among girls lately?"

Yuzuru Masahiro turned his head and saw that the man was on the heavier side, but had a cold and aloof demeanor, though the lewdness in his eyes was unmistakable.

Isn't that Tokuda? In the Tokyo AV industry in 1992, it wasn't common for older men to star in films.

Masahiro Hanyu remembers that Tokuda would not officially debut until next year.

At this stage, he's probably just looking for opportunities to take on temporary guest roles.

"Oh, not really, I just improvised!"

Masahiro Hanyu said.

Tokuda said seriously, "Your improvisation was excellent. It was a unique self-recommendation that was impressive and easy to remember."

If the goal is to put pressure on Takizawa Reika, then the greater the pressure, the better. He remembered that Tokuda was someone who couldn't keep things to himself.

Thinking of all this, Masahiro Yuzuru said softly, "Actually, I've heard some things. Yoga instructors like the lazy way I introduced myself just now."

"I've especially heard that she gets incredibly excited when she hears the sound 'NS'..."

Tokuda's eyes lit up. "Oh, I see. Thank you for telling me."

"I'm getting old, so I have to strive for every opportunity."

Masahiro Hanyu said earnestly, "I believe that as long as you work hard, you will definitely become a beloved artist in the future."

Hearing Masahiro Hanyu's encouragement, Tokuda looked grateful and said, "Yes, I will definitely work hard."

After the first round of self-recommendations by all the auditionees, while everyone was waiting to prepare for the second round of performances, Shigeo Tokuda had already spread the news he had heard to everyone.

Now, everyone who comes to audition looks at Masahiro Hanyu with more respect.

This is what a truly dedicated artist looks like. He actually took the time to find out the yoga instructor's preferences beforehand. I really misunderstood him earlier.

Masahiro Hanyu sensed the change in the gazes of his colleagues, but he pretended not to notice.

Anyone who tried to get closer to him to glean more inside information was politely stopped by Matsui's manager.

The second round of auditions was still open to improvisation, and participants could design their own scenarios for the performance.

This time, the artists brought by Matsui Management were in the last group.

The first to audition was Tokuda. He lay lazily on the ground, then twisted his body, unbuttoned his shirt, and opened his eyes wide at the camera.

"NS, I can achieve the ultimate!"

The performances of the numerous auditionees that followed completely abandoned the previous style of trying to showcase masculine charm, and all turned into a decadent and languid state.

The scenes depicted included people curled up on sofas, resting their chins on their hands in a daze, and taking a nap on benches...

No matter what lines these celebrities say in front of the camera, they will always include "NS" in their speech.

This performance left the staff at the "Fangyou" studio, who were responsible for filming, speechless.

Both the agents and the artists who came to audition tacitly chose to keep quiet, and no one revealed that they had received inside information.

The last group auditioned was brought by Matsui's manager. Kato had just made a suggestion, which was adopted by the whole team.

Let's all do a skit together, with the script written by Masahiro Hanyu.

The scene depicts several men lounging on sofas by the window in a café in the afternoon, basking in the sun.

Each person held a cup of coffee, looked at the camera, and took turns saying only one short sentence: "NS, Faith, I'm strong!"

In the audience, Tokuda's face was full of admiration. "That's amazing! That's the power of teamwork. It's truly outstanding."

At the end of the performance, Masahiro Hanyu looked at the camera and silently mouthed the name "Yayoi".

The information has been sent to NS Building, Xinyi Detective Agency, and Mrs. Yayoi.

Masahiro Hanyu is now convinced that he will definitely be among the candidates for Reika Takizawa.
