Do I really have a thing for female voice actors?

His brown pupils were so deep that not a single ray of light could be found, like a bottomless vortex that would not stop until it completely sucked Tazaki Toru in.

"Takasaki-sensei."

"Would you write songs for MyGO for the rest of your life?"

131. Miss Yang Gong wants to sing out loud.

"Tazaki-sensei, will you write songs for MyGO for the rest of your life?"

Before me stood Yang Gongfei, whose fair and soft round face held a solemn expression that seemed out of place with her usual demeanor.

Those beautiful eyes seemed to lose their luster in an instant, becoming as deep as newly formed small black holes, and at this moment they were extremely hungry, wishing they could suck Tazaki Toru in one gulp.

Tazaki Toru felt a strange attraction emanating from the female voice actress as his fingers, which were clenched around his sleeve, gradually tightened.

Her voice seemed to possess a kind of hypnotic magic; if one did not resist, one might be corrupted by her voice, fall into a black hole, and ultimately be unconsciously manipulated by her.

He was trapped in it for his entire life.

lifetime?

Toru Tazaki originally planned to make music for the rest of his life.

Rather, preventing him from making music would actually be more of a problem for him.

Therefore, Toru Tazaki did not think there was anything wrong with writing songs his whole life.

He suddenly realized that Yang Gongfei's eyes didn't seem so deep and terrifying.

What could possibly frighten a little girl who wants to sing for the rest of her life?

With a slight lift of his hand, he easily pulled his arm out of her grasp. This action left the girl stunned, staring blankly at her fingers, which were now empty.

“Miss Yang Gong is the one who should be blamed. If she continues at the current pace, she can’t blame anyone else if she gets replaced as the lead singer in the future.”

"Eh?!"

Tazaki Toru's words caused the light in Hina's eyes to reappear, and the black hole that had just formed in her pupils vanished without a trace.

Instead, a pair of increasingly panicked, watery eyes gazed at Tazaki Toru with utter fragility.

"Ugh... Ms. Tazaki, why did you say such mean things?"

The sheep palace princess in front of him looked dejected, the heavy gravity around her completely dissipated, and she looked listless.

"Please don't misunderstand, I don't mean to belittle you or exaggerate, I just think that having a sense of crisis will make you progress faster."

"I already feel a lot of crisis."

"Oh?"

"Recently, I've been the least improved member of the team, while the other members have all been praised for their improved skills."

“When it was my turn, Fujita-sensei said, ‘I can tell you’re working really hard.’ Tazaki-sensei, do you think that counts as a compliment?”

Tazaki Toru didn't know if this was a joke, but he couldn't laugh.

Looking at the dejected look on Himegami Hinata's head, Tazaki Toru didn't know what to say to cheer her up.

It seems that making female voice actors happy does require some skill, which Tazaki Toru has not yet mastered.

After today's classes were completely finished, Tazaki Toru headed to the station. Just then, he heard hurried footsteps behind him.

Turning his head, he saw Yang Gongfei running towards him, her hair tied in a high ponytail, and her whip cracking violently.

The laces of her canvas shoes were wobbling incessantly, and Toru Tazaki couldn't help but worry that they would suddenly come undone and cause her to fall flat on her face right in front of him.

I always felt that this was something she was capable of doing.

"Tazaki-sensei, I'm going to practice on my own now. If you have time, could you come and give me some guidance?"

Tazaki Toru was taken aback by his words: "Now?"

"Yes, my vocal cords are in great condition today, and I can probably sing for another five hours straight," Yang Gongfei said frankly.

"Does this mean I have to listen to you sing until the power goes out?"

"Well……"

Yang Gongfei was suddenly speechless, stammering and unsure how to respond, when she heard Tazaki Toru speak:

"Although I can't listen for five hours, I also don't recommend that Miss Yang Gong overuse her voice."

"But I'd be happy to listen for just a short while."

Yang Gongfei was slightly taken aback, blinked a few times quickly, and after confirming that she hadn't misheard, a bright smile immediately appeared on her round face.

When she smiles, the left corner of her lip curls up higher, making one feel an irresistible urge to reach out and lift the other corner of her lip slightly as well.

Of course, if you actually did that, it would be outright sexual harassment.

Tazaki Toru would never do something that would ruin his career.

And so, Toru Tazaki followed Hinata Hitomi to her secret training base.

Tazaki Toru assumed that Hinata Hitomi would take him to a recording studio rented by the agency, thinking that Bushido would definitely be willing to spend that much money.

However, to Tazaki Toru's surprise, the place that Hitomi Hina took him to was unexpected.

It's a karaoke bar in front of the train station.

"Of course I can go to the recording studio, but if I go to the recording studio to practice, I get so nervous that I can't speak properly when I think about how many planning staff are watching me outside."

"But if it's karaoke, I can sing whatever I want, and no one will criticize me even if I sing off-key."

Well, it's not impossible to understand Toru Tazaki's mindset.

After all, she is just a young girl in her early twenties, so it is perfectly normal for her to care about other people's opinions.

At her age, she is especially susceptible to being affected by external evaluations.

However, if one avoids evaluation and fears attention, one will suffer greatly when faced with direct feedback from the audience once on stage.

We ordered the smallest private room, located at the far end of the corridor.

As is well known, the pay for new voice actors is not generous. Hina Himegami has only been in the industry for a short time and has not received many roles, and her extracurricular activities are even more scarce.

Even so, she still invested her hard-earned salary into the band and their career without the slightest hesitation.

Upon entering the private room, Hina Himegami fully demonstrated her spirit of letting Tazaki Toru choose a song first.

Faced with Tazaki Toru's silent gaze, she suddenly slapped her forehead.

"Oh! You wanted to hear me sing!"

Unlike the timid and hesitant atmosphere inside the recording studio, coming to this kind of free and open space is a welcome change.

Without the strict guidance of her vocal coach, Miss Yang Gong actually became more confident in her vocal technique, just as she had said, and her singing style became incredibly free and unrestrained.

It is obvious that she suppressed her voice to some extent during her usual practice, which was mostly done unconsciously.

And her voice is indeed strong and resilient. She sang four or five songs in a row, and her voice did not show any signs of fatigue. She just got thirsty easily, and now she took her cup outside to get a drink.

Tazaki Toru was doing his analysis very seriously, taking out his pen and paper and silently writing it down.

To be fair, even though she's a newcomer who hasn't been in the industry for long, Hina Himegami is a genuine voice actress with a very solid vocal foundation.

However, speaking is actually her strength, rather than singing.

Not long after, Yang Gongfei returned from getting drinks.

Tazaki Toru looked up, about to offer her some guidance.

But then they saw Consort Yang leaning against the door, breathing heavily for no apparent reason, her chest heaving, her face flushed as she shook her head.

"Next door..."

"next door?"

“...se”.

"se?"

Miss Yang kept her mouth tightly shut, involuntarily covered her face with her hands, and remained silent, her ears almost turning completely red.

Confused, Tazaki Toru got up and walked towards the door. Himeko immediately stepped aside in a panic, pressed herself against the wall, and squatted down limply.

The door to the adjacent private room was wide open at that moment.

Tazaki Toru glanced slightly inwards.

The two figures on the sofa were overlapping.

Ah, I see.

132. Your sister Yang is really good at timing.

Unlike Hina, who was completely under her control, Toru Tazaki appeared much calmer.

He frowned slightly and returned to the private room, using the internal call system to summon a staff member.

Then, a commotion broke out outside the private room.

There was a brief argument, but the noise soon subsided.

Throughout the entire process, Yang Gongfei Na covered her face while simultaneously peeking out from under the door, caught between disgust and curiosity.

After a while, the blush on her face finally faded by most, but her ears were still bright red.

She glanced at Toru Tazaki, who was calmly writing on a piece of paper, her eyes narrowing slightly, revealing a strange light.

When Tazaki Toru turned to look at her, she immediately shrank her neck like a frightened little animal, moved to the other end of the sofa, and sat down obediently without saying a word.

Tazaki Toru didn't take it seriously and continued writing on the paper.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the private room became slightly awkward.

A normal girl would have changed the subject or started singing, pretending nothing had happened.

Unfortunately, Yang Gongfei Na always seemed to be a bit slow on the uptake.

"Tazaki-sensei, are you quite adept at handling these kinds of situations?"

She actually brought up the topic herself.
