A Longtime Fan of This Couple

He said, "If my mom agrees to let that person join the firm, he must be a good person."

Hyakka asked Haruno, "Is that person a beautiful woman?"

Haruno tilted her head and thought for a moment:

"If I remember correctly, she was... well, not exactly beautiful, but not bad either?"

"Yeah."

Hyakka glanced thoughtfully at Shuya.

Shuya returned an innocent smile, only to receive another eye roll from her.

Just as he was about to explain, his phone vibrated; he had received a Line message from Mai:

"You took me home yesterday, didn't you? Did you do anything strange while I was asleep?"

Shuya answered honestly, "No, I just poked your cheek."

Mai: "... What did you use to poke it?"

Shuya slowly typed out a question mark, "?"

Shuya: "Something's not right with you."

Mai: "Speak quickly."

Shuya: "Fingers..."

Mai: "... I'm going to remain anonymous."

She didn't send any more messages.

Shuya sighed. How did Mai become so filthy? Who corrupted her?

First, excluding yourself, there's only one answer left...

Damn it! Yukino- chan, you're so dirty-minded!

Yukino Mai's best friend, so it must have been her!

Shuya successfully convinced himself.

Who's looking for you?

Hyakka asked curiously.

"Mai- chan. She asked me about taking her home yesterday."

"So what strange thing did you do?"

Hyakka gave a knowing look.

"No, I just poked my cheek... I mean, with my finger."

Shuya emphasized this.

Hyakka and Haruno silently swallowed the questions they wanted to ask.

Shuya: "?"

You guys are acting strange too?

Under his death stare, Hyakka looked away. But Haruno was clearly not guilty at all; she met his gaze normally and even blew him a kiss.

Shuya and remained silent.

He couldn't be bothered to ask about the new agent anymore; the agency was so small, he'd run into him eventually.

If she's a beautiful woman, chat with her a bit more; if she's just an ordinary person, treat her politely and keep your distance.

Shuya made a decision that any normal man would make.

After chatting for so long, the break ended, and everyone returned to the recording studio to continue recording.

The recording was completed around 4 PM, and the voice actors left, either to go to the next film set or home.

Shuya waited until most of them had left before following Hanazawa Sakura out.

In the corridor outside, he saw Gojo silently waiting for Chitose and the other two.

"... Um?"

Shuya suddenly had an idea while chatting at noon.

Speaking of agents, Gojo is actually quite good too.

He then went over and struck up a conversation. "Hey, Gojo- jun."

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly using the way I call my sister?"

Gojo, who had intended to say hello and leave, hesitated for a few seconds. Chitose and the other two who had just come out also stopped to the side, wanting to wait for them to finish speaking before leaving together.

Chitose was happily thinking that she had finally gotten through the boring time, but when she saw Shuya calling out to Gojo, her mood was as bad as if the teacher had gone overtime.

Shuya laughed and said, "Gojo, are you interested in switching jobs? My agency is hiring agents."

"What?!"

Karasuma Chitose cried out.

Kugayama Yae and Katakura Kyoya turned to look at Shuya with a start.

"Waaaaah, Gojo- jun, don't go!"

Chitose rushed over and grabbed Gojo, tears welling up in her eyes.

Gojo was initially a little troubled, but then seemed somewhat pleased.

... Oh, so my sister still cares about me after all.

Just as Gojo was moved, Chitose cried out in anguish, "Whatever Gojo -jun says is fine! But what will I do if you leave?!"

Gojo: "..."

He calmly shook off Chitose and asked, "Why did you suddenly invite me?"

"I just found out that a new agent has switched to my agency, and that's when I suddenly thought of you."

Shuya and looked Gojo: "You could consider it? My family's firm may not be big, but it's quite reputable, with good benefits and the work isn't too busy."

If he switches jobs and joins the agency, then there will be three agents, making the workload much easier for them to share.

He continued, "You can do more than just be a manager here. If you want to relive your days as a voice actor, you can continue to do voice acting. As for roles, that's easy to arrange; our agency has no shortage of them."

Most of the supporting voice actors in Inoue Hikoo's anime are handled by Hanazawa Agency, which is why he said that.

Gojo's eyes widened instantly.

What Shuya said was very appealing to him.

"This, this... I..."

However, Gojo is no longer a child; he has many things to consider and would never Shuya down and worship simply because Xiu said so.

Hanazawa Sakura, who was nearby, smiled and said, "Shu-chan's suggestion is quite good. Gojo- chan can consider it. You can come over anytime~ I know Gojo- chan is very capable."

After she finished speaking, she nodded to him and Chitose other two, then happily went over to chat with Inoue Hikoo.

"Ms. Hanazawa...? Thank you, thank you."

Gojo bowed in gratitude towards Hanazawa Sakura.

He was very happy to receive Hanazawa Sakura's affirmation.

"Hey, Gojo- jun..."

Chitose nervously tugged at his sleeve.

"Fine."

Gojo offered a word of comfort, then looked Shuya: "I'm sorry, I..."

"Go back and think it over carefully." Shuya didn't press him for an immediate answer, "There's no deadline. Take your time."

He added, "But... the only agency that can let you be both a manager and a voice actor is probably my family?"

He smiled meaningfully, then went back to Hyakka and Haruno's side.

He wasn't laughing for any other reason; he was just showing off.

Shuya was really enjoying himself for successfully pretending to be profound, but unfortunately Gojo and the others weren't having the same fun.

They eventually returned home, each with their own thoughts.

"..."

Hyakka stared at their retreating figures for a while before turning her gaze away.

She said to Shuya, "You're being too abrupt."

"It's just a suggestion, nothing serious."

Shuya felt it was nothing, since he hadn't forced him to come.

Haruno agreed, "It's really annoying how chaotic Shu-chan's behavior is~"

"?"

"?"

Shuya and Hyakka were extremely surprised, never expecting her to have the nerve to say such a thing.

When it comes to acting recklessly, Haruno is even more so than Shuya.

However, Haruno pretended not to understand their gazes and simply blinked innocently.

Shuya turned his gaze away and said to Hyakka, "Hmm, we've finished dubbing. We should go and find out what tonight's live broadcast is about."

"That's true, we don't even know what their names are."

Hyakka agreed.

The two then went over to Inoue Hikoo to inquire, and Haruno, who was alright, followed.

Chapter 573, 533: A long-time CP fan.

Shuya led Hyakka and Haruno over and asked Inoue Hikoo, "What's the name of tonight's live broadcast again?"

Inoue Hikoo replied, "It's not decided yet. You can discuss and decide during the live broadcast tonight."

Shuya thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "I get it, you want to pad your video length!"

"Bullshit! How can this be called water? It's to increase audience participation!"

Inoue Hikoo unhappily.

Shuya asked, "Since there's no name, what about the steps in between? You didn't... think about that either, did you?"

Inoue Hikoo replied matter-of-factly, "Segments? Do we need to think about that? Just read the letters, promote it, and then you guys chat casually, isn't that enough for a whole episode? If you don't have enough time, just play some games, right? Do you need to ask me about this kind of thing?"

"You said it! You revealed the first phase of the Waterfall project!"

Shuya complained.

Inoue Hikoo was taken aback. "Really?"

He looked at Hanazawa Sakura.

Hanazawa Sakura smiled brightly, "No~"

I knew it!

Inoue Hikoo glanced sideways at Shuya: "You brat, you're so young and you already have hearing problems? Go see a doctor, do you want me to pay for the checkup?"

"Grass (Chinese)."

Shuya was truly speechless.

Inoue Hikoo said to him earnestly, "Son, you're a mature college student now. You need to know how to design your own live broadcast segments, instead of asking me about everything. Can't you be a little more considerate and share my burdens? How can I entrust the company to you in the future when you're so foolish?"

Shuya: "???"

He was somewhat bewildered by this distorted account.
