I push the kid!

“Really…” Makimura Taku lowered his head.

"Let you pretend!"

Hoshino Ai kissed her.

Chapter 43 True Colors Appearing

Chapter 43. Acting as Yourself

"Click."

The show is over.

In the center of the room, Makimura Taku was sitting on the ground, supporting himself with his hands, his whole body leaning back, while Hoshino Ai pounced on him completely.

Her upper body was completely pressed against Makimura Taku's chest, their faces were so close that their noses were almost touching.

The untouchable light seemed to have transformed into some tangible object, surrounding them tightly.

The two looked at each other, their breathing so heavy that it almost occupied the other's entire brain.

It would be more accurate to say that it was Taku Makimura who was standing still rather than close, while Ai Hoshino was rushing over from a slightly longer distance.

They were originally standing, but Hoshino Ai's movements were too quick and decisive, and the two of them immediately fell together.

It was a scene that was tantamount to a forced kiss.

Before the people in the audience could react, only Takamine Sanae calmly called a halt to the fight.

Afterwards, Ninomiya Ritsuko came to her senses and ran over to ask, "Are you okay?"

Mai Watanabe stood there and sighed, "What happened? How did they almost kiss?", then ran over to help Hoshino Ai up.

"Thank you." Hoshino Ai held her hand and stood up.

Makimura Taku then stood up.

I wasn't dirty at all and the floor was clean.

"So amazing..." Ritsuko Ninomiya admired Hoshino Ai's acting skills from the side.

"Really?" Hoshino Ai lifted her long hair on the right side, "Was it okay just now?"

“Yeah, I think it’s pretty awesome.”

"You scared Makimura-kun," Mai Watanabe looked at Makimura Taku and covered her mouth with her hands, making a sound that sounded like a teasing, "This action was not written in the script. Did you not expect it? Haha, that expression looks completely surprised."

"Is that so?" Before Makimura Taku could answer, Hoshino Ai looked over and spoke.

"Don't you see it most clearly, Xiao Ai?" Mai Watanabe said to her.

“Hahaha…that’s right.”

"It's not enough to scare you," Makimura Taku cleared his throat, "The expression and movements were just an act."

After he finished speaking, the four girls looked at him. Hoshino Ai was the first to be stunned, and then the others fell silent.

Being stared at by these people but not blushing at all, Makimura Taku asked casually: "Is there a problem?"

"Makino-kun..." Takamine Sanae looked at him with her chin supported by her hands.

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Mai Watanabe with a surprised exclamation: "Is this true?!"

"Yes."

"As expected of Makimura!" Hoshino Ai's eyes lit up.

When Taku Makimura turned to look at her, it seemed as if a pair of bright stars were twinkling in her eyes.

The overall feeling was as if a purple flower was blooming from the center of her body outwards.

That day, Hoshino Ai did not change into her stage costume. She just covered her body with a white short-sleeved shirt from Uniqlo and some army green overalls from a generic brand. Her shoes were also cheap pure white sneakers.

A rabbit hairpin with a strange but cute expression was pinned on the smooth purple long hair.

The small and delicate ears are faintly visible between the hair, and there are no earrings or studs.

Slightly different from her previous appearances in Echigo Yuzawa and Karuizawa, this time she wore a light layer of makeup.

It is difficult to see the makeup unless you get within three centimeters of her. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is not wearing any makeup at all.

As for the long eyelashes, delicate facial features, and charming smile, these are what Hoshino Ai already possesses, and they are enough to amaze people even without any embellishment.

She opened her mouth and placed her hands on the black-lined kitten pattern on the chest of her short-sleeved shirt, with an expression of admiration that came from the heart.

She said: "With your invincible looks and first-rate acting skills, there is no one more suitable to be an actor than you!"

Makimura Taku smiled modestly: "You are exaggerating."

"real!"

At this time, Mai Watanabe suddenly shouted to Ritsuko Ninomiya: "Ritsuko, quickly close the door of the training room and don't let Makimura-kun out!"

"Huh? What do you mean?" Ninomiya Ritsuko hasn't reacted yet.

"Hurry!" Watanabe Mai said again.

"Okay!" Even though she didn't understand what she meant, Ritsuko Ninomiya still nodded obediently like a confused deer.

Just as she was about to do what Mai Watanabe said, Takamine Sanae immediately pulled her back and gave Mai Watanabe a look of contempt: "What are you doing?"

"We have to keep Makimura-kun in our office!" Mai Watanabe explained to her seriously.

"Then why close the door?"

"Prevent him from running away, and call President Saito!"

"..." Gao Feng Sanae rubbed her brows.

"Ai-chan!" Mai Watanabe turned to Hoshino Ai and asked her as if to confirm an ally, "Do you think so too? Leave Makimura-kun here!"

"Of course, Watanabe, I totally agree!" Hoshino Ai winked at her.

"Two votes in favor!" After saying that, Mai Watanabe stared at Ritsuko Ninomiya.

"I think...it's okay." Ritsuko Ninomiya only raised her hand halfway.

"OK, three votes passed!"

"Idiot, Makimura-kun hasn't even said whether he's willing or not, what are you going to approve of?"

"Makino-kun, nod your head quickly."

"That's right!" said Hoshino Ai.

"Stop it..." Takamine Sanae sighed.

But since only Mai Watanabe was next to her, she could only pat Mai Watanabe's head.

"it hurts!"

Selectively ignoring Mai Watanabe's wailing, Takamine Sanae said to Hoshino Ai: "Ai, how did you feel about the performance just now?"

"Do I feel it myself?"

"Yes."

"Hmm..." Hoshino Ai lowered her head and pondered for a while, then raised her head. Her expression seemed to be joking, but also seemed to be a little serious. She said seriously, "It seems to be no different from before!"

"Like this." Takamine Sanae rested her chin on her hand and glanced towards the corner of the room, as if looking for the right words.

The training room suddenly fell silent as she pondered.

Five figures of different heights were fully reflected on the smooth mirror that occupied one wall.

"No, I think it's better than before." Watanabe Mai, who was standing by, had tears in her eyes pitifully, and she was rubbing her head while looking at them.

"Yeah, I think so too," said Ritsuko Ninomiya.

"What do you think of Makimura?" Even though the two of them commented like this, Hoshino Ai still asked Makimura Taku for his opinion, "What do you think of my performance just now?"

Just like last time, Makimura Taku just replied, "It's OK."

"It's okay again..." Watanabe Mai glanced at him.

"Specifically?" Hoshino Ai asked this time.

Makimura Taku looked at the light on the ceiling, then back again: "To be specific, it's completely a true portrayal of myself."

"what?"

"What do you mean?" Gao Feng Sanae raised her head and asked.

Makimura Taku thought for a moment and said, "Too many personal emotions were added, completely obscuring the character's own characteristics... Maybe that's the feeling?"

"It's very similar to what Ritsuko said before." Mai Watanabe looked at Ritsuko Ninomiya with an incredible look.

"If you think about it carefully, it is indeed true..." Ninomiya Ritsuko whispered, "But it is also true that I acted better just now."

Everyone looked at each other. Ninomiya Ritsuko immediately looked away because she was being stared at, while Takamine Sanae closed her eyes thoughtfully and nodded.

Hoshino Ai holds her face:

"Absolutely! Absolutely! I don't understand it any more!"

Chapter 44 The Girl Here

Chapter 44. The Girl Here

On April 27th, there are still eight days left until the start of the talent show "Become an Idol from Today".

It was Saturday, around seven in the morning, and Hoshino Ai asked Makimura Taku to come out.

The location was not in the training room, but where they first met in Ochanomizu.

When Taku Makimura arrived there, it was almost exactly eight o'clock.

He looked up from the bottom of dozens of steps. There were shady green plants on both sides of the road and a few sparrows flew by.

Wisps of clouds drifted across the sky, and the sun came out a little.
