Girl idols are meant to be exploited!

There are less than five days left until the concert, and every day must count.

This concert is crucial as it concerns the showdown between their band and Diamond Dust. Renai doesn't want to lose the showdown because of her own reasons.

"It's okay, Rencai. We've all practiced hard enough, so we don't need a day or two. If your father is really sick, go back and see him."

"I'll go back after the concert, but not now!"

Rencai continued.

No one could convince her, even Momoka was helpless as she couldn't do anything about Renai.

After all, once this little sister makes a decision, it is difficult to change her mind.

When Momoka saw Hoshikawa Taku coming, she felt like she had seen a savior and quickly said to him, "Mr. Hoshikawa, please come and persuade Nina. Although the performance is important, the health of your family is more important!"

Taku Hoshikawa walked over and looked at Nina. Although Nina didn't say anything, there was still a look of resistance in her eyes.

Hoshikawa Taku looked at her for a few seconds, then suddenly asked, as if he saw through her thoughts: "Nina, are you worried that your father isn't actually sick and this is just a ploy to get you to go home? Once you go back, you won't be able to come out again, and you'll miss the performance...right?"

A look of surprise flashed in Renai's eyes.

She didn't expect that Hoshikawa Taku could see through her thoughts so easily and understand her so well.

Rencai nodded and said gloomily, "Well, in my father's opinion, studying is the only right path. He finds it hard to accept that I want to make a living by music."

"I'm worried that he's not actually sick, but just wants to take this opportunity to keep me at home..."

So that's how it is... Everyone immediately understood Renai's concerns.

They all knew that Renai's father was a conservative teacher who found it difficult to accept Renai's rebelliousness, and her worries were indeed possible.

However, Taoxiang still persuaded: "But you can't not go back and take a look, right? What if...something really happens, you will regret it."

“That’s what worries me…”

Renai rubbed her brow, pain evident in her voice.

She was 90% sure that her father was not sick, or that he just had a minor illness, but she couldn't gamble on that 10% probability.

What should I do if my father is seriously ill?

Xingchuan Taku thought for a moment, then suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile: "In that case...then you can go back. I will go with you."

"Huh? You want to go too?"

Renai was stunned.

"Not just me, but Lupa too. The three of us will go together. Let's go tonight and come back tomorrow. How about that? That way you can continue rehearsing with peace of mind."

Hoshikawa Taku patted her shoulder and explained, "After all, you're my artist now, and I haven't met your father yet. It's neither right nor proper. If I go with you, I can also convince your father to overcome his prejudice against you and the band."

Many people have a stereotype about people who play in bands, thinking that they smoke, drink and play with women every day.

Just like people with tattoos are not good people, people who play in bands will always be prejudiced against, and Nina's father may also think so.

"Besides...if I'm here, even if your father is really pretending to be sick, he won't dare to force you to stay."

Hoshikawa Taku paused and said.

Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this and persuaded Nina to listen to Taku Hoshikawa.

Rencai thought about it and felt that there was no problem, so she agreed.

"Okay, then let's do as you say, Mr. Xingchuan."

"Well, I'll go get Lupa..."

As soon as Hoshikawa Taku finished speaking, An and Subaru volunteered to run over and call the other party.

Soon, Lupa came over, and with her came Xiaozhi.

"Lupa, is it okay for you to come with us on this errand tonight?"

Hoshikawa Taku asked Lupa with a smile.

"That's fine with me...it's just Satoshi..."

Lupa glanced at Xiaozhi with some concern.

She lives with Xiaozhi and goes home together every night. She is worried that Xiaozhi will not be able to get used to life without her.

Xiaozhi had also heard the details from An and Subaru, and she had no objection to it.

She crossed her arms and said calmly, "Why, do you think I can't sleep alone at night? Since it's work, just go ahead. Don't worry about me. I'm not a child anymore."

Lupa thought about it and realized that Xiaozhi was not the kind of little girl who couldn't sleep without someone by her side. She could take good care of herself when he was not around.

It's impossible that she would be kidnapped in just one night, right?

Lupa felt relieved and quickly entered assistant mode, asking Hoshikawa Taku: "Manager, how do we get there? Do you need me to book a ticket now?"

"Let's take the Shinkansen. We can pack up and leave right away."

Although flying takes less time, considering the series of processes such as flight waiting, security check, and traveling to and from the airport, it is not only troublesome but also a waste of energy.

In comparison, the Shinkansen is more convenient and the extra time is acceptable.

In fact, there is nothing special that you need to prepare. After all, it is just a short business trip for one night. Bringing your mobile phone, wallet, charging cable, and some extra change is enough to cope with everything.

Lupa nodded in agreement and immediately returned to his workstation to search his backpack for the charging cable and wallet.

She lowered her head to clean up, while Xiaozhi stood behind her, saying nothing, but his eyes never left her.

"You're following me so closely, are you reluctant to let me go?"

As Lupa was tidying up, he looked back at her teasingly and said soothingly, "It's only one night. If you're not used to it, why don't you stay at Aine's house for a night? She should be very welcoming to you."

"It's not that I can't bear to leave, it's that I'm worried about you."

Xiaozhi didn't laugh. Instead, her tone was extremely serious. "Lupa, you must be careful. Don't let the manager find an opportunity to do something to you."

Eh? Is Xiaozhi worried about himself?

Lupa smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, I'm sure I'll be fine. The manager is a good man."

"He's a good man, but he's also a promiscuous guy. You're beautiful and have a great figure, so he might have called you over with this in mind... You must be careful."

Xiaozhi gave serious instructions for a long time. Lupa smiled and nodded while packing her things, but she felt a little nonchalant in her heart.

This time it's not just her and Taku Hoshikawa, Nina is also here, so what Xiaozhi is worried about is unlikely to happen.

After packing up, the three of them prepared to head to the station.

However, after learning about this, Miao Mengqin actually volunteered to join them.

"My family is from Kumamoto Prefecture too. Let me go with you. Maybe I can help persuade Nina's father!"

Like Nina, Miaomeng is a country girl from Kumamoto Prefecture who came to Tokyo to work hard.

The only difference is that Meow Meng came to Tokyo to attend high school by taking an exam, while Ninai came to Tokyo to attend cram school because she dropped out of school.

Oh, now she doesn’t even go to cram school and has completely given up on her studies.

"Miao Mengqin, you and I are from the same hometown..."

Jing Qinrencai was very surprised by this.

She and Miao Mengqin were just acquaintances and not very familiar with each other. Only then did she realize that she was from the same hometown as her.

After detailed inquiries, I found out that the other party is still a freshman in high school.

First year of high school? Are you sure?!

Jing Qinren looked at Miao Meng, who was a head taller than her, wearing a tight skirt and high heels, dressed like a mature woman. It was hard to imagine that she was not only a minor, but also two years younger than her.

Rencai subconsciously looked down at herself in a simple T-shirt, then looked at Miaomeng's brightly colored outfit and the pair of slender fingers with sequined nail polish, and suddenly she had the illusion that "she was the elementary school student."

Jing Qinrencai suddenly felt that it was very unfair. Why were there such big differences in their figures even though they were all girls?

However, after she glanced at Chihaya Aine beside her, her mood suddenly became more balanced.

At least, I am not the only "ordinary" person, and there are people to keep me company.

"What do you think? Boss, take me with you. I'm very useful. As long as you agree, I'll ask for leave from school right away!"

Meow Meng begged while shaking Hoshikawa Taku's arm.

Taku Hoshikawa thought about it and felt that it was not a bad idea to bring Meow Meng along.

Miao Meng is a short video blogger who is well-known on the Internet and is also a local celebrity.

If she could help intercede, it might be easier to convince Nina's father.

"That's settled then. Let's set off and try to reach Kumamoto tonight."

Hoshikawa Taku made a decision.

……

It takes six hours to drive from Tokyo to Kumamoto.

Several people bought tickets and boarded the train. They didn't feel bored sitting in their seats because everyone had something to do.

Lupa leaned against the window with the laptop on his knees, his fingertips rapidly tapping the keyboard, switching the screen from time to time to check his email, and he was completely immersed in work.

Rencai was wearing headphones, looking out the window quietly, humming her favorite songs to the beat, and tapping her knees with her fingers from time to time, as if she was doing a silent rehearsal.

As for Miao Meng and Xingchuan Taku...

"Come on, could you please move the lens down a bit? Yes, yes, yes, so that my face will be smaller..."

Miao Meng came in front of Xingchuan Taku and adjusted the angle while gesturing.

"A little more to the left. Yes, don't take the photo of that old man's head in the background. It ruins the atmosphere."

Hoshikawa Taku held the phone helplessly, watching her posing energetically, and could only cooperate and become a temporary cameraman.

"Are you ready? I'm coming!"

Miao Meng coughed lightly and immediately got into the state, his whole body lit up as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

She clasped her hands together lightly, waved them in the air like a cat, and smiled cheerfully at the camera:

"Deduct a few meow meows from you. Hi everyone, I'm Meow Dream~!"

Her voice was sweet and energetic, with a slightly cartoonish tone that almost made the passengers in the opposite row glance sideways at her.

"Today I'm taking everyone to my hometown, Kumamoto Prefecture! Yes, the place with the black bear mascot, delicious ramen, hot springs, and... lots of beautiful girls!"

When she mentioned "beautiful girl", she winked confidently and made an expression that said "I am one".

"Miao Meng, I haven't been home for a long time. However, I heard that my popularity in my hometown is rising rapidly, especially in the girls' school circle in Kumamoto. I have a lot of fans!"

"In this video, I'll show you how popular I am in my hometown!"

"Everyone, please stay tuned!"

After Miao Meng said this, he pressed his palm towards the camera, and Hoshikawa Takuya stopped recording at the moment the screen went dark.

This part has been recorded. When you arrive at the location, just pull your hand back to complete the transition.

Miao Meng breathed a sigh of relief and stretched her neck impatiently to look at the screen in Xingchuan Taku's hand: "Was my face a little dark just now? How about we record it again?"

"No, it's perfect as an opening statement."

Hoshikawa Taku handed the phone to Miaomeng.

The theme of Miao Meng's video this time is to explore her influence in her hometown.

To be honest, this topic is quite interesting, and everyone wants to see the unknown side of the blogger.

However, Hoshikawa Taku had a question.

"Are you sure you're really well-known in Kumamoto?"

"Of course, I have a lot of fan girls from Kumamoto Prefecture in my backstage mailbox. They all said that there are many fans of mine in the school!"

Miao Meng said confidently.

really?

Hoshikawa Taku was skeptical about this.

Miao Meng is a beauty blogger. Those who follow her are young girls who like to wear makeup. The proportion of this group in small towns is very small.

If she were to give an interview, I'm afraid no one would know her name except these girls.

But never mind, since she is willing to take on this topic, then let her do it.
