Please, please go and tell the author to change the plot! I don't want to perform on stage!

Shuya's current mood can be summed up as despair.

Utterly desperate.

Section 454, Chapter 422: Public Execution!

As expected... miracles don't exist...

If despair had a color, it would surely be pink.

Wearing a pink dress, Shuya sat listlessly in the corner of the recording studio, basking in the various gazes cast at him.

This was basically a music program to promote a song, and the guests present included not only Hanazawa Hikoo and Shuya, but also many singers from the ACG music industry.

This season only features voice actors Hanazawa Hikoo and Shuya.

When the two first arrived, the other singers all came over to greet them.

Shuya recognize these people. Regardless of whether they were gender-swapped or not, Shuya had only heard of their names before they were gender-swapped, and had no close relationship with them.

They're not very famous.

"Shushu-chan, long time no see."

Hanazawa Hikoo had disappeared for a while, came over with a friend to say hello.

This is a middle-aged man.

"Hello, Mr. Yamashita."

Shuya didn't really know who this person was, only that his surname Yamashita.

This is a man, meaning he was originally a woman.

Yamashita is about the same age as Hanazawa Hikoo; he's not exactly handsome, but he's pleasing to the eye.

"Shushu-chan is really pretty!"

He gave a sincere compliment, then said to Hanazawa Hikoo beside him, "I think having Shushu-chan would be more effective than your partner."

"Don't say that, it'll cause a stir if someone hears it."

Hanazawa Hikoo smile, then said with relief, "I never expected to be so lucky as to catch my daughter. Look at my luck."

Yes, luck.

Shuya's face turned ashen. "I'm so unlucky to have been caught by you."

Perhaps because Shuya's expression was too obvious, Yamashita asked with concern, "Is Shushu-chan not feeling well? Do you need some medicine?"

"No need, thank you for your concern. I'm fine!"

Shuya hypnotized himself into believing he was Shuko, revealing an incredibly cute and sweet smile.

What the heck is that "de la" tone?! I'm going to throw up! Damn it!

He felt that his last remaining integrity had vanished.

Damn! How can I be so professional? I automatically put on an acting role as soon as I get to work!

Shuya smiled on the outside, but was cursing inwardly.

"Shushu-chan is so cute."

Yamashita clutched his chest and said, "I wish my daughter were as cute as you. I really envy you, Yanxiong."

Haha, my daughter, of course she's adorable.

Hanazawa Hikoo put his arm around Shuya's shoulder and proudly addressed Yamashita.

Shuya felt uncomfortable because Hanazawa Hikoo was taller than him, which he wasn't used to.

You should know that Hanazawa Sakura is shorter than him.

"It's a rare treat for you and your daughter to come, why don't you take a picture?"

Yamashita made a request to Hanazawa Hikoo.

"Sure."

Regardless of Shuya's wishes, Hanazawa Hikoo took a photo together.

Yamashita nodded in satisfaction, then said, "Is it alright if I upload it to Twitter to promote it?"

"It's okay, it's okay, go ahead and upload it."

Hanazawa Hikoo didn't care.

No, wait.

Shuya was greatly surprised.

However, Yamashita had already opened Twitter and uploaded it at lightning speed:

Hey, I pressed it!

With a light, decisive sound, he pronounced Shuya's death sentence.

Damn, a public execution!

Shuya cursed under his breath.

This program is streamed live online.

He initially thought the show wasn't very popular and that not many people would see him sing and dance, so he could get away with it.

But now everything is over.

Shuya and Hanazawa Hikoo are already extremely popular, so Shuya can easily guess the explosive publicity effect their joint appearance will bring.

Things unfolded as he had predicted.

The show has already surpassed three million views on Nico Live.

Even worse, the show will be streamed live on video websites in other regions.

This is... a public execution on a global scale!!!

Grass (Chinese).

Is it too late for me to run away now?

Shuya's eyes were extremely empty.

It's too late; the show is about to start in a few minutes.

The host is already in place. After Yamashita finishes his opening remarks, Hanazawa Hikoo will bring Shuya onto the stage, followed by the other guests.

There's no longer an excuse to run away.

If they force their way out, they won't be able to catch up, but Shuya will be bothered by Hanazawa Sakura's whimpering for a long time afterward!

With no other choice and out of reluctance, Shuya had no choice but to go ahead.

A scholar-official shouted, "Everyone, get ready! Three, two, one... Live broadcast begins!"

"Good afternoon everyone, I am Yamashita..."

The host, Yamashita, smiled broadly at the camera and began his opening remarks.

As time went by, Shuya was driven to the brink of despair.

He had just told Masato that he was originally a man, and now he has to act cute, sing, and dance on stage. This is quite a slap in the face.

Shuya seriously considered whether it was feasible to secretly blow up this place.

There's nowhere to turn!

Yamashita finishing his opening remarks and chatting casually for a while, Yamashita finally said, "Alright, enough of the small talk. It's about time for our guests to enter."

He paused, then smiled at the camera and said, "Today, our program has once again invited many famous and talented singers, and we also have a super famous special guest... To be honest, I still can't believe that our program was able to invite a celebrity of this caliber."

Yamashita asked the scholar-official, "How many people are watching our program now?"

The scholar-official gestured to him.

"Six?"

Yamashita feigned surprise. "Six hundred thousand people? That's terrifying! What... isn't it?"

"Six million?"

A collective gasp rippled through the Yamashita!

His expression was genuine, because he was truly shocked.

Keep in mind that this was a live online program broadcast in the afternoon, and many people recorded it to watch in the evening.

The number of viewers this time is truly terrifying.

"Without further ado, let's invite our guests to the stage!"

Looking Yamashita at the crowd, the singers entered the venue as scheduled.

Hanazawa Hikoo and Shuya made their grand finale appearance.

"Let's go, my sweet girl."

Hanazawa Hikoo chuckled softly.

Shuya was filled with despair.

... But he's the kind of person who's stubborn and will rise to the challenge even in the face of dire circumstances.

Damn it! Whatever! I'll just treat this as acting practice! I've studied for so many years and acted in so many productions, I refuse to believe I can't portray a woman well!

Shuya went all out! Viewers flooded the chat with tears in their eyes!

"Um."

A sweet smile instantly bloomed on Shuya's face as he looked up and winked gently at Hanazawa Hikoo.

"?"

Hanazawa Hikoo shivered; he was charmed.

He was extremely surprised, wondering what was wrong with Shuya today, that he was being so attentive to him.

But playing time can't be delayed any longer.

Hanazawa Hikoo and Shuya walked into the frame side by side.

Welcome, welcome!

Yamashita, beaming, hugged Hanazawa Hikoo, excitedly saying, "As expected of my good friend, bringing Shushu-chan to support me! Hehe, six million people are watching my show! After today, I'll be a famous TV host!"

"Congratulations, Yamashita! Don't forget me after you become famous!"

Hanazawa Hikoo skillfully joked with him.

Section 455, Chapter 423: There's nothing left to fear.

Shuya laughed, "Hehe, Mr. Yamashita is exaggerating too much."

Her bright eyes blinked lightly, and her smile was captivating.

Yamashita exaggeratedly put his arm around Hanazawa Hikoo's shoulder, while clutching his own chest with one hand.

The live stream chat exploded with Danmaku.

Yes, just like Shuya's feelings right now...

The program then proceeded according to its normal schedule.

The recording studio was simply set up.
