Chapter 493

It sounded as if a sigh of resonance was being uttered.

"That's amazing..."

"Truly worthy of being called Asahi- san..."

"I'm used to it."

"..."

"No, they really are siblings..."

Kita Ikuyo seemed to choke, cold sweat pouring down her back.

Speaking of which, my younger sister has such high standards. Just how outstanding must someone be to catch the eye of Talent senior...?

Even if he approves, is it possible to get past his sister-in-law's hurdle? Just thinking about it makes me despair!

"Oh! Right! Let's exchange contact information!"

To break the eerie atmosphere of "one person suppressing all ages," Ichiji Nijika made a cheerful suggestion.

"If it's alright, we'd like to get to know you better in the future, Miss Asahi... Is that alright?"

"Sure, it's no big deal."

Ogura Asahi readily agreed.

Haha, as someone who is flawless, of course he couldn't have imagined that this day would come.

He left himself a backup plan when he decided to create three identities!

You don't actually think he'd be stupid enough to use the same account for three different identities, do you?

When he decided to sever ties with his identity, he even severed ties with his account! This is his prophet, Pawa!!!

He made friends with different identities, even on the same social media platform, using different registered accounts. He even prepared several spare phones!

No wonder he can handle things so easily!

Hahaha...

As for whether he was worried about being disturbed by messages while talking to others, causing him to give himself away—he wasn't worried at all, because he had his phone on silent mode, and he himself didn't even know if anyone was sending him messages.

In other words, this has always been his public persona, and others have gotten used to his indirect lack of response.

He readily gave his account to the group, but as for Chihaya Aine and the others, since they weren't familiar enough to exchange contact information, they all remained silent.

Asking strangers to add you as a friend without your consent will only cause them trouble, especially in a group of girls.

As young, positive-skinned girls of the new era, Ichiji Nijika and Kita Ikuyo were well aware of this, so they didn't mention it.

"And one more thing! Can I take a picture with you? I want to show it to Mr. Talent later!"

"Hmm... okay."

Although somewhat reluctant, it wasn't easy to refuse at this point.

"I want one too!"

Kita Ikuyo eagerly raised her hand, her cute little face beaming like a sunflower, "I've already set Talent Shengen's as my wallpaper, and I'm going to use Miss Ogura's as my screensaver!"

"Please don't do that..."

"I've asked you to do it too."

"Ah, well, even I, a mere nobody..."

"Interesting~"

Following the comments from the five members of the Kessoku Band performance, the other side couldn't hold back any longer:

"Ah, how cunning~ I want one too! Asahi- san!"

"Well, if you really want it, it's not that I can't..."

"If you'd like, please... I'll trade you a penguin-shaped band-aid!"

"Hehe~ This band Group Photo looks really fun. Everyone's coming, it wouldn't be right if I didn't..."

"You..."

As the line grew larger and larger, resembling the queue of fans asking for photos after a live performance, Ogura Asahi felt a little overwhelmed.

He's not like Kawaragi Momoka or those other poor bands who don't need to make money by selling photos and merchandise!

Just then, a familiar figure emerged from the room behind.

"Rikki-chan ~ Rinrin-ko-jie asked me to come and see what's going on. Why is it so noisy... Huh? What's going on?!"

Toyama Kasumi rushed out from behind, was stunned by the chaotic scene inside the coffee shop, but after understanding what they were talking about—

"Group Photo with Little Asahi? Count me in too! Saaya! You come over here too!"

"Kasumi-senpai?!"

"..."

Chapter 451 The room was clean and odorless.

RiNG's incredibly noisy two-story coffee shop.

Half an hour later, the first joint filming event between the Kessoku Band and MyGO (undetermined) and Popipa (incomplete) came to a successful close.

He didn't even have the energy to continue the discussion about song selection for the upcoming live performance; he hastily dismissed today's meeting and slipped away.

The noisy, chattering atmosphere had left him feeling somewhat exhausted.

After changing his clothes in his room, he went down to the Gal Studio.

It was already late, but the lights were still on, and everyone was still there.

Normally, they should be getting ready to go back by now.

But when he went inside, he found that the group was still doing their own thing and had no intention of leaving.

"What's wrong? Aren't you planning to go home today?"

"Young Master?"

"Good evening, Young Master."

"It's Talent..."

"..."

The five people inside reacted with varying expressions. He walked straight to the drawing table where Eriri was playing a game, picked up a few black and white drawings, looked at them, and remained silent.

It must be said that the drawing skills are indeed excellent, and the characters and techniques are also...

Only after flipping through the last page did he let out a regretful sigh, "Eriri, can you please not draw in front of Mashiro when you're rushing to finish your work? You'll set a bad example for her."

"Stop nagging! What does it matter? I only drew the everyday parts!"

Eriri blushed, her fair face glowing, and snatched the manuscript from his hand.

"I drew the H part in my room and at home..."

She lowered her head and spoke softly, her voice barely audible.

"Are there any other parts? I want to see them."

Shiina Mashiro grabbed her arm, her unfocused, large eyes staring straight at her.

"Eh? That one..."

Eriri hesitated.

I want to see it.

No, but...

"Eriri, let me see it~"

"Gulp! No way!"

"Why?"

Shiina Mashiro's usually serene eyebrows furrowed as she looked at her with a hurt expression, as if she had been betrayed.

"That's... Mashiro, you don't need to know yet!"

Eriri felt a chill run down her spine and turned her head away, avoiding her innocent gaze.

Even she felt a pang of guilt about polluting the innocent children.

"Because the content is H?"

Shiina Mashiro repeated the words she had just heard.

What is H?

"Hoo-hoo~"

A snicker came from the side.

"Kasumigaoka Utaha! What are you laughing at?!"

"I laugh at you for trapping yourself in your own web."

"Damn it!!!"

"Hey, Eriri, H is...?"

Shiina Mashiro relentlessly pursued him.

"Don't make things difficult for her, Mashiro,"

Kasumigaoka Utaha flicked a strand of her glossy black hair, her tone carrying a hint of disdain and arrogance, "Sawamura-kun hasn't experienced those things either. She's just creating fantasies based on what she learned from other manga, like someone trying to imitate others blindly."

"--This is what is known as secondary creation."

"Ha! You act like you have more experience than me. You're just a big-breasted virgin, aren't you! You've never had a proper relationship, yet you're writing shonen romance novels!"

Eriri straight, slender, and graceful figure, retorted sarcastically.

"Let me give you a piece of advice, Sawamura-kun: always judging others based on past experiences will only lead to trouble sooner or later."

After saying that, she secretly glanced at Sakurakoji Talent, and her cheeks immediately began to burn.

Although she hasn't done that kind of thing yet, it's enough for her to act mature in front of Eriri!

"It's none of your business!"

"..."

Sakurakoji Talent was well aware of what she was thinking. He strolled leisurely behind her, pretending to look at his computer while leaning down to her shoulder, his hand restlessly rubbing her waist.

"Senpai Utaha, aren't you going home today?"

"Yes, it's a holiday, and we've already arranged with our families to stay here tonight..."

Eriri glanced at her suddenly weakened momentum and curled her lip. What a lecherous woman!

"Eriri and Megumi too?"

He looked up and asked the other two with his eyes.

The studio is quite large, with exactly three rooms—which was part of his original plan.

They didn't live here much before, but recently they've probably gotten used to it and are spending much more time here.

Especially during Golden Week, some of them simply stay here to avoid traveling back and forth and the noise at home.

Of course, it was mainly Eriri who was concerned; Kasumigaoka Utaha and Kato Megumi didn't really care. Kato Megumi even went on a trip with her family, taking several days off in the process.

"It's a rare holiday, it would be such a waste to spend time on the road."

Eriri nodded in agreement.

"Hmm~ I don't really mind. This kind of training camp feeling is quite interesting. Doesn't it feel a lot like a club activity?"

Kato Megumi's usually calm voice now held a hint of interest.

Although she didn't join any clubs—mainly because her presence was too weak—she probably wouldn't have the same experience in those vibrant, youthful clubs, right?

To be able to work on projects with well-known industry professionals and experience maid-and- Young Master relationships while still in high school is like a dream come true.

"Well~ if you really want to, joining my club isn't out of the question~"
