Chapter 53: Debut! The Girl I Recommend (2)

Chapter 53. Make your debut! The girl I support (53)

Hoshino Ai said on LINE that several people from B Komachi had finished their makeup and were waiting for the show to start, and the director was arranging for everyone to enter.

She took a photo of her dressing table, using the rear camera.

The overhead lights are bright and there are many high-end bottles and jars on the table.

She was the only one sitting there in the mirror, her face half blocked but her eyes completely exposed.

She was wearing the same off-shoulder stage costume she wore last time. The skirt was red and had two large metal buckles on the front of the waist.

Hoshino Ai has a very thin waist. When she sat down to take pictures, she kept her legs together obediently.

Because of the boots, the white calves look even longer.

In addition, someone's skirt is floating a little from the lower right corner of the camera.

Taku Makimura seemed to have some impression. He vaguely remembered that it was Mai Watanabe's stage costume.

"There are really so many people, Makimura~" Hoshino Ai sent a message.

"The show is so popular, so it's normal to have so many people."

"There were auditions back then." She typed out a few words and continued, "But! Fortunately, everyone at B Komachi is quite outstanding!"

Here is an emoticon with a thumbs up.

She posted: "Even someone like me who doesn't have any special skills, I passed it without even realizing it, hehe."

Makimura Taku stared at the dialog box, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Where did the confident Hoshino Ai go?"

The message was read, but Hoshino Ai did not reply. Makimura Taku withdrew his gaze and looked towards the stage.

He sat in the sixth row of the audience, close to the center, and could see the performance on the stage clearly.

There were a male and female host wearing suits and evening dresses on the stage, and they were talking near the entrance.

The staff set up the camera in the first row and gestured to the side. The lighting technician on the second floor began to adjust the position of the stage lighting.

No major changes, just minor tweaks.

Taku Makimura, who was sitting in the audience with most people, looked down at his mobile phone, and the message from Hoshino Ai popped up at this moment.

"I was just called away by the president. Sorry I didn't see your message!" The next message came a few seconds later. "Wrong, wrong, wrong! Very wrong!! You are wrong, Makimura!"

Makimura Taku seemed to see on the screen her proudly pointing at herself.

Hoshino Ai typed it down proudly: "Hasn't the confident Hoshino Ai always been in front of you?"

Then he sent another post: "And it's always there! You can see it anytime!"

Then he added a smug expression.

Makimura Taku shook his head as if amused and replied: "That's the best."

"Of course. Could it be that what you just said was a lie?"

"It's not a lie."

"exactly."

She sent a cute smiley face, and Makimura Taku couldn't think of what to reply for a moment, so he just opened the dialog box and scanned all the pseudonyms on it.

Five seconds later, Hoshino Ai said: It’s almost time to start preparing, let’s talk about it later, Makimura.

Makimura Taku replied with a "good" and was about to put away his phone, but Hoshino Ai sent him the last message before going on stage.

She said: "I always feel that as long as you are watching me from the audience, no matter what the ending will be, it doesn't seem to matter."

The message was sent all at once and seemed a bit long.

There was no rabbit picture as expected, nor any emoticons learned from Mai Watanabe, just a simple piece of text.

Hoshino Ai’s LINE account uses her own photo as her profile picture, which is a side profile photo.

The smile on her face is perfect, but the photo was actually taken secretly by Mai Watanabe, and the picture is even a little blurry.

Even so, one can clearly feel the innate charm of Hoshino Aina.

Especially those eyes, clear and bright, sparkling all the time.

Just by seeing this message, Taku Makimura couldn't help but recall every smiling face she had in the past.

Whether in Echigo-Yuzawa or Karuizawa, including Shibuya and Ochanomizu later.

She smiled everywhere.

Even though the smiles are different each time, they are all impressive enough.

Makimura Taku didn't reply.

He flipped the message up and put his thumb on the words "Not a lie".

He lied: There is no way to judge the truth or falsehood without words coming out of his mouth.

Even now, Takuya Makimura still doesn't know how many lies Hoshino Ai told in that farewell letter.

I took my temperature at night and it was over 39 degrees. I don't know if it was yang. I ate some ice cream to cool it down. It was only a little bit today. Sorry. I'm going to sleep first.

Chapter 54. Make your debut! The girl I support (54)

The show started on time at half past nine, and several judges had already taken their seats at the edge of the stage near the audience seats.

The previous host stood in the middle of the stage and read the opening remarks of the show to the camera.

After they left, the first contestant came on stage from behind the right side of the red curtain.

That person was a girl, not from a group like B Komachi, and it seemed that she was participating alone.

She was wearing a short white dress with many sequins that had a metallic luster and looked quite gorgeous even from a distance.

The judge gestured to the girl, who nodded slightly.

When she held the microphone and raised her face, her expression no longer had the previous trance, but instead was tinged with a hint of determination.

Sitting in the audience, Takuya Makimura stared at the stage with great interest. The girl briefly introduced herself and then began to sing.

Unlike her solemn and exquisite attire, her dancing posture seemed somewhat simple.

It's called a dance, but it's just raising the arms to the rhythm of the song and then slowly lowering them.

Sometimes I also use gestures and insert some cute actions.

She is pretty good-looking, and because she puts on makeup, she looks like an average idol.

But it doesn't have any special features and it's hard to give people a bright feeling.

After the singing was over, the girl bowed and expressed her gratitude. The host handed out scripts that were randomly drawn on the spot, and then the performance was examined.

The script is very short and can be performed in two minutes, but the production team did not give the contestants much time to prepare. They just let them take a general look at it and then perform immediately with the script.

After completing these processes, the judges will give scores on the spot, but the scores will not be announced. Instead, they will be announced uniformly after the program is broadcast.

On the stage, the extra lights disappeared, leaving only a spotlight shining on the girl's head. She bowed again to express her gratitude.

Nearly a thousand spectators in the audience applauded spontaneously.

As the applause gradually faded, the girl walked off the stage in her silver high heels.

After a while, the second contestant came on stage, followed by the third, the fourth, and so on.

During this period, Taku Makimura kept looking at the stage, occasionally looking down at his mobile phone.

He watched every performance from the beginning.

Whether it's singing, dancing or acting, in his opinion, there are some who are slightly worse than B Komachi, but there are also a few who are much better.

There are both individual contestants and there are also many four-member groups like Hoshino Ai and her friends, and some groups even have up to eight members.

Judging from their self-introductions, many contestants already have a certain fan base.

Among them is a YouTube blogger with tens of thousands of followers, and several others have become famous by posting two or three TikTok dance videos.

Some develop on Twitter, while others have offline fan groups.

One of the groups used to be waitresses at a maid cafe, and they decided to sign up for the competition just because they were interested in idols.

It is undeniable that those players do have strength that cannot be underestimated.

Nearing eleven o'clock, the host read out B Komachi's name.

Taku Makimura adjusted his sitting posture, resting his elbows on the armrests, supporting his face with the back of his hands, and looking forward.

On the stage filled with lights, Hoshino Ai was the first to come on stage, followed by Takamine Sanae, then Watanabe Mai and Ninomiya Ritsuko.

They put on exquisite makeup, but wore cheap stage costumes and ordinary shoes.

Compared with every previous contestant, these girls' outfits look particularly "rustic".

The girls wearing portable microphones stood in a row in the middle of the stage.

The four of them linked arms and bowed deeply to the audience. Then they looked at each other and nodded slightly as if they had confirmed something in their hearts.

They stood a little further apart and Hoshino Ai began to introduce herself.

"Everyone……"

At this moment, the microphone made a nasty sound.

Chapter 55. Make your debut! The girl I support (55)

The sound was sharp and piercing and lasted for about four seconds, which sounded very short but seemed a bit long to the four people standing on the stage.

Although she was only halfway through her words, Hoshino Ai could only shut her mouth.

The other three members of B Komachi were slightly startled.

However, there was no sound from the audience and the judges looked calm.
