Okada Yukiko called the page back, and the other end of the phone was quickly connected.

"Akira Sang, good evening."

Shinichi Iwahashi sat in the driver's seat, listening to Okada Yukiko talking to Akina Nakamori on the other end of the phone, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at her.

Yukiko Okada, who is twenty-one years old this year, still makes people feel a childlike innocence from time to time. The same is true for calling Akina Nakamori, with a lively tone.

However, this innocence does not come from the childishness of "not growing up". It is better to say that although he has grown up, he still retains his side as a girl while living as an adult.

Therefore, such innocence not only does not make people disgusted, but also makes people sincerely love her childish charm.

Such characteristics made Shinichi Iwahashi feel that it was natural for Akina Nakamori to be friends with Akiko Okada and that friendship could be maintained until now.

"I am still with Iwahashi Sang." Okada Yukiko said to the other end of the phone.

While speaking, he turned his face to Shinichi Iwahashi. Although he looked at him, he continued on the phone with Akina Nakamori, "I came to work in the recording studio today and I went to work for a little bit. Iwahashi Sang said that as compensation for overtime, he would treat me to supper."

“…”

There is no need to tell Akina Nakamori in such detail, right? Shinichi Iwahashi was so amused and crying.

Just as I was thinking this secretly, Okada Yukiko suddenly smiled and said, "Really?" She said to the phone, "Wait a moment", and suddenly discussed with him.

"Iwahashi Sang, can I let Akana Sang come here too?"

"What?" She said in a general way, and Shin Iwahashi asked in a moment of consciousness.

Yukiko Okada explained: "In the afternoon, I gave Akana Sandal a paging and wanted to ask her to go to the movies together. Akana Sandal was working and didn't come back until now."

Speaking of this, she laughed, "And, Akanasan said, she hasn't had supper yet."

"Is that true?" Shin Iwahashi nodded and agreed, "Okay."

Okada Yukiko said "Thank you" to him, and took away the hand covering the receiver, "Akina Sang, how about having dinner together? Iwahashi Sang is also..."

Shinichi Iwahashi understood what she said, and then he first obtained his consent and persuaded Akina Nakamori. If Akina Nakamori smiled and said he refused, it would be too subtle.

...

Fortunately, there isn't.

Okada Yukiko talked to Akina Nakamori, hung up the phone, and reported to Shinichi Iwahashi, a string of addresses located in Meguro, which was the place where he made an appointment with Akina Nakamori.

Shinichi Iwahashi almost didn't go to Meguro's area. He digested the addresses for a long time before setting off.

On the way, he remembered what Okada Yukiko said and asked her, "After dinner, will you and Nakamori go to see a movie tonight?"

Okada Yukiko looked at the time and shook her head, "It's too late today, the last one is eight o'clock in the evening."

"What kind of movie is it?" Shinichi Iwahashi was a little curious.

"A Hundred Years of Solitude."

He tried hard to plunder his memory, and seemed to have never heard of the movie being released recently. Yukiko Okada didn't wait for him to ask, and said first: "It's an Italian movie introduced by the Art Cinema."

"Oh." It would be normal not to know.

According to the film selection standards of art theaters, a bunch of niche movies that appear from nowhere will be introduced in daily life. Even so, this kind of art theater is a blessing for those who love foreign films.

"Today there are women's discounts in the cinema, so I thought about asking Akinasan to see it with me at a discount..." said Yukiko Okada.

Shinichi Iwahashi was a little happy, "Did you go and see it because there is a discount?"

"I saw the release information in a movie magazine before, and the movie poster looks quite textured. However, it is more cost-effective to watch it when it is discounted." She looked like a careful tone.

Not only that, but Akina Nakamori was also brought in, "Akina San also likes to go to the movies during discount days."

"Is that true?" Shinichi Iwahashi thought it was so interesting when he heard this gossip.

A Taopu Star who went to the cinema on a discount day was very proud of saving a few coins and seemed to have accomplished something big.

However, after thinking about it this way, I feel that she, who claims to be a "shop street child", seems to be quite in line with this behavior, and if she really does it, it's quite cute.

Having said that, he had talked to Akina Nakamori several times before. Now, Akiko Okada talked to him about Akina Nakamori. Is it considered that he won a game back invisibly?

...

At this time, Okada Yukiko spoke again and asked him: "During the last concert, Iwahashi Sang had met Akana Sang?"

Shinichi Iwahashi responded, "Are my seats next to me?"

"Yeah." Okada Yukiko nodded, "I like Akana Sang very much. When I went to participate in "Star! Birth", I sang Akana Sang's song."

"Akina Sang is my important friend, and so is Iwahashi Sang." She said this, looking satisfied, as if she was proud to have such two friends at the same time.

Shinichi Iwahashi didn't say anything when he heard this, but he vaguely recalled that in the backstage at the end of the concert, he had never told each other about Okada Yukiko's words that they had already known him and Akina Nakamori.

Okada Yukiko planned to introduce him to Akina Nakamori, but he didn't expect such a coincidence. Shinichi Iwahashi thought of what he and Akina Nakamori guessed. If Akiko Okada Yukiko knew about this, she thought it was very interesting and wanted to laugh.

If I really told Yukiko, I wonder how she would react?

"Iwahashi San looked very happy." Okada Yukiko stared at his face.

Shinichi Iwahashi calmly replied, "I'm quite happy."

His straightforward admission made Okada Yukiko not know how to continue. She wanted to ask why he was happy, but she felt that it was not good to ask the bottom of the matter, so she stopped the topic and looked ahead.

Yukiko Okada did not ask any more questions, but instead made Shinichi Iwahashi feel better.

This kind of good mood is not because Okada Yukiko did not pursue him relentlessly, but because she was vaguely interested in keeping a secret that only he and Akina Nakamori knew.

I don’t know if Okada Yukiko invited Akina Nakamori just now, she had thought of this.

The last time I met Akina Nakamori was on her birthday, at the recording site of "The Breaking Recording Studio at Night". It was still midsummer at that time, and now it is autumn.

Even if you are all in the industry, there are not many opportunities like "accidental encounters". If it weren't for the overlapping schedules, you might not be able to meet them all year round.

After a showdown with Manyumi Watanabe, he decided to cut off the ropes of the two of them. After establishing a record company, Shinichi Iwahashi entered an unprecedented busy life.

I deal with people from the business and record industry all day long, and I have no chance to meet Akina Nakamori.

However, the thread of the relationship with Akina Nakamori was not cut off. During this period, he returned to Kawasaki's office, and received another letter from Akina Nakamori.

There is no topic in the letter, and it is like before, as if it is face to face chatting.

While wearing a giraffe hood, I met Akina Nakamori and handed the origami to her, revealing her identity in a vague way.

However, in the subsequent letter, Akina Nakamori did not mention any information about the giraffe man.

Because of this, Shinichi Iwahashi felt her considerate, just as when he didn't know who the person under the giraffe's hood was, he still thought of getting a snack to ask him to take it back.

Shinichi Iwahashi read the letter and wrote a similar letter. If you want to say something special, it is nothing more than writing about the preparation of a record company in the letter.

At this time, the record company's affairs have already been concluded and can be written on paper without any hesitation.

However, it was not sent out immediately. Instead, it was waiting until the eve of the release of Dreamsetru's second single, and sent the letter and record, and of course, "tasting impressions" together.

It is not only continuing the solicitation of "tasting impressions", but also responding to the question of identity in a vague way. However, the letter has not been sent for too long and has not received a reply yet.

During this period, the record company was preparing for the showdown with Watanabe Manyumi, and negotiated with Takeda Printing Company, trying to find ways to gain the greatest power within its ability with the weakest strength. Then, the lead singers were publicly recruited on a large scale. In just a short period of time, every step he took was full of calculations.

Now, thinking that the person I will meet next is Akina Nakamori, Shinichi Iwahashi felt quite relaxed, and there was a wonderful feeling of comfort that he didn't have to think about anything.

If you think about it carefully, you will write the record company's affairs into your letter, which probably comes from a state of getting along with Akina Nakamori, which does not have to be trembling and does not have any impurities.

Because of this, he can write these things that he has done carefully after calculating them into the letter paper like gossip.

...

Shinichi Iwahashi parked his car in the parking lot, got out of the car with Yukiko Okada, and walked into the street where motor vehicles were prohibited.

If it weren't for the retirement of the night, as an orthodox and pure idol, I wouldn't have been out for a night tour so easily.

This can be regarded as a wonderful freedom.

These men and women in the era of Big Idol were, to some extent, similar to the students in co-educational schools.

So there are differences between 82 groups and 83 groups. People who debuted in the same year will hold the so-called "classmate meeting" on TV programs.

Since she is a co-education student, there are seniors and lower grades. For Okada Yukiko, Akina Nakamori is similar to the senior sister who is longed for by female students in the lower grades.

Not only that, the junior girl also successfully held the master's hand and became her good friend.

Students will gather together, divided into various factions, and good friends. After school, there will be coffee shops that can play table games, or snack shops, etc. that can go together.

The same goes for idols.

These young idols also have many "secret base" stores to relax. This restaurant in Meheri is like this "secret base".

Okada Yukiko, Nakamori Akina, and their respective friends all came here to have dinner.

She was familiar with the road and walked into the store with Shinichi Iwahashi.

...

Akina Nakamori arrived a little later than Shinichi Iwahashi and Yukiko Okada.

After work, I checked the pager and found that Okada Yukiko called the pager. After dialing it, she said that she was with Shinichi Iwahashi.

"Today I came to the recording studio to work and I went to work for a little extra time. Iwahashi Sang said that as compensation for overtime, I would like to treat me to supper." Okada Yukiko told her on the phone.

Speaking of this in such detail, Akina Nakamori was amused by her tone, so she also told her that she had not had supper yet.

As a result, Okada Yukiko said "Wait" and after a while, she asked her if she wanted to have supper together.
