Crossing over, and then being blocked by a rich JK.

Chapter 392 Undercurrent【4K】

Thanks to the good start that day, both Watanabe Yu and Hayakawa Yuki got into their roles as quickly as possible.

As they become more adept, Enden Session guests become more and more accepting of them.

From just knowing that this new duo sang well in the beginning, to remembering their names, and then to people bringing drinks during the breaks before they started singing, their popularity in this bar has skyrocketed.

"That's all for today's resident singing session. See you tomorrow."

After saying goodbye to the audience, Watanabe Yu took Hayakawa Yuki's hand and sat back in the store manager's exclusive booth with ease.

What surprised him was that the store manager was the only one in the booth.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Miyajima Taki waved his hand lazily, then pointed to the fruit plate and two glasses of watermelon juice on the table.

"Here."

She raised her chin.

"This is?"

Watanabe Yu took a look at the fruit plate in the dim light of the booth, but did not rush to take it. Instead, he asked a question first.

"They sent it."

Miyajima Taki turned his head, raised his chin, and motioned the two to look at the booth at the edge.

"That middle-aged man who raised his glass to us before?"

Watanabe Yuu reacted immediately.

This new duo now has loyal fans. At least in the past five days, he can see a few familiar faces every day.

"Yes, he found a job that pays more than before."

Miyajima Taki picked up the glass of beer in front of him, took a big gulp, and then let out a very comfortable breath.

"He was...?"

Watanabe Yu looked at Miyajima Taki with some confusion.

He had some guesses in his mind, but he wasn't too sure.

Xiao Yuki, who was sitting next to him, quietly moved closer to him, and her ears perked up.

She had never been interested in participating directly in such topics, but it was a different story if she listened in.

"I was laid off by the company. It's a mid-life crisis. Do you understand?"

Miyajima Taki leaned forward and reached out to touch the fruit plate in front of Watanabe Yu. She wanted to eat a cherry in it.

"Uncle is 35 this year?"

Watanabe Yu slapped the manager's hand away, picked up the largest cherry in the fruit plate, which was the one the manager wanted to take just now, and handed it to Yuki beside him.

"Thank you."

Yuki Hayakawa took the cherry and thanked her sweetly.

"Oh~ Thank you~"

Miyajima Taki rolled his eyes and repeated Yuki's words with a wink.

"Hmph, such a coquettish voice!"

She turned her head away proudly.

Ever since they became relatively familiar with her, they no longer treated her as an outsider.

In other places, if the store manager wants to eat the employees' fruit, the employees will give him some out of courtesy. But Watanabe is so protective of his food that he won't give a penny.

"I'm happy~"

Yuki Hayakawa raised her chin proudly and ate the cherry in her hand in small bites.

"Aunt Miyajima, well, strictly speaking, you are past the age of being cute, and tsundere is no longer popular now."

Watanabe Yu shook his head and helplessly pushed the fruit plate towards her.

He had never thought of not giving the store manager a bite from the beginning, but this person wanted to take the best one as soon as he came, which was definitely not possible. After all, it was a gift from fans, and he himself didn't care, but the biggest one must be given to Yuki.

After all, besides watermelon, her favorite thing is cherries.

"You're talking nonsense. The heroine of the campus romance comic that was shown at the evening theater a few days ago was a blonde tsundere with twin ponytails."

Miyajima Taki glared at the man and corrected him.

She doesn't admit that Tsundere has withdrawn from the market!
"Oh, are you talking about the one where the male protagonist is a gangster but only wants to become a civil servant?"

Watanabe Yu felt his radar go off.

"Yes, look, you've seen it too, haven't you?"

"Tsk, I guess I've seen it."

"What does this tsk mean?"

"Nothing, it's just that the blonde with twin tails won in the end, so I'm a little unhappy."

Watanabe Yu gave the store manager a spoiler without making any noise.

I can only say that the fighting power of other female characters is too weak, which is a disgrace to the God-dropping series. You know, from now on, the blonde twin tails hairstyle is basically associated with the word loser.

"Tsk, you don't know how to appreciate it."

Miyajima Taki snorted coldly, then picked up a cherry from the fruit plate and put it into his mouth.

It’s not that she can’t afford these fruits, she just simply thinks the ones in other people’s bowls taste better.

"Oh~"

Watanabe Yu responded indifferently.

"I don't want to talk to you about this anymore." Miyajima Taki gave him a look that said 'I'm too lazy to talk to you', and then got down to business, "Today a customer told me that he wanted to help you with drainage."

She was quite surprised that the guest came to tell her this.

Because generally speaking, most people think, 'I think someone shouldn't be buried, I have to do something', and then they do it. Few people will ask the person concerned what he or she thinks.

"Of course, it's better to say I wish for it."

Watanabe Yu nodded.

You know, they only have less than ten days left to stay in Kamakura.

At this rate, he might have to spend his entire summer vacation in Kamakura.

He also wanted to take some time to accompany Ryoko home to see her grandmother.

"Ok, I'll tell the guest later." Miyajima Taki turned his head and spat the fruit core into the trash can. "Then there's another thing."

"Please say."

"The store's cameraman has recorded your performances over the past five days, and has edited the best song. It will be uploaded around nine tonight." She paused, and her tone became more serious. "Yuki, let's not talk about it. Do you really want to pursue a career in music?"

If Watanabe Yu nodded, she would contact the editors of several major music magazines and ask them to come and take a look.

“Who knows?” Yu Watanabe spread his hands. “At least my current thought is that more people will come to see our performances. As for whether I will take this path in the future, that is something I should consider in the future.”

One cannot lie to oneself.

He knew very well that he enjoyed the feeling of being on the stage immensely. It was not that he wanted to become a public figure, but he just hoped that the songs he sang could be heard and liked by others.

But this idea is contradictory to his original intention of not wanting his normal life to be overly disturbed.

All I can say is that people are like this, they want everything.

"...I understand what you mean."

Miyajima Taki was silent for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

No wonder Watanabe Yuu sounds so free and easy when singing. In this respect, he is indeed better than Naoko was back then.

Shangzi was very worried about his future back then.

But it's funny, before he became famous, he wanted to be famous like crazy, and when his career was about to reach the peak, he threw everything away for the so-called love, and ended up with bruises all over his body.

Oh, it's really sad.

"Your audience has given you a tip again today." She shook her head, no longer thinking about the past, and took out a thick envelope from her pocket and handed it to him, "This is your salary for today plus the tip specifically given to you."

"so much?"

Watanabe Yu took the envelope and squeezed it.

This is thicker than the most on that day.

"Hmm, he's a rich man, with ten Yukichis."

Miyajima Taki pursed his lips but didn't say that it was the rich man who wanted to divert traffic to him.

After all, the rich man also said that he didn’t want Watanabe Yu to know about this.

"Then it looks like I can eat better in the next half month."

Watanabe smiled and picked up a piece of watermelon with a fork and put it into his mouth.

"It's more than just better." Miyajima Taki paused, "It's the best yakiniku restaurant in Kamakura. You and Yuki can go there at least three times, and eat as much as you want."

The consumption in that barbecue restaurant is not low, so most people who go there to eat are just looking to try a little.

After all, this is not Tokyo and people’s income is not that high.

"Then go tomorrow at noon!"

It just so happens that he doesn’t know what to eat for lunch tomorrow.

Moreover, he has been in Kamakura for so many days, but he has not taken Ryoko, Ayana, and his mother out for dinner.

"Can you take me one? I'll be responsible for eating."

Miyajima Taki blinked.

"Haha, what do you think?"

"You used the word 'you' very cleverly, Watanabe. Your sudden estrangement is really unexpected. As a man, be more generous."

"I'm sorry, my ability is limited and I can't be generous."

"Tsk, I don't even want to go." Miyajima Taki waved his hands pretending to be angry, "Okay, you can leave today, you're an eyesore!"

"I haven't finished eating the food they sent me."

Watanabe Yu showed no intention of moving.

My mother has something to do today and said she will come late. Instead of going back so early, I might as well stay here for a while. At least I can listen to some music.

"I helped you solve it."

"unnecessary."

"Tsk, stingy."

"Why isn't Senior Dongshan here tonight?"

Watanabe Yu nonchalantly brought up a new topic.

"Her? She went on a date with her sister." Miyajima Taki paused, "To be more precise, they went to have a heart-to-heart talk. Her sister encountered some troubles."

"Ok."

Watanabe Yu nodded in understanding.

If that's the case, no wonder.

After the words were spoken, there was a brief silence in the booth.

"How long do you and Yuki plan to be gone? I mean leaving Kamakura and heading back to Tokyo."

Miyajima Taki turned his head and looked at the two people who were drinking watermelon juice in the light of the booth.

Honestly, their movements were so synchronized that it was as if they had rehearsed it a thousand times.

"Tentatively scheduled for ten days later."

Watanabe Yu did not hide anything and chose to tell the truth.

"That's too fast." Miyajima Taki retracted his gaze and said tactfully, "In ten days, many things may not ferment."

According to her experience, if Watanabe Yu wants to achieve the goal he mentioned, he will have to stay for at least another half a month.

However, this is the decision of the person involved, and she cannot and will not interfere.

I just feel it’s a bit of a pity.

Because if he stays for a few more days or ten days, he will be able to achieve his goal.

"Do your best to obey fate."

Watanabe Yu put down the watermelon juice, raised his eyebrows and looked at JD who was playing the drums on the stage.

A certain store manager was really the classic example of a hypocrite, with a hard mouth and a soft heart. She said she would eliminate the girl, but in fact she didn't. Not only did she let Dongshan teach her to sing, she also gave her a job as an accompaniment.

"You are open-minded."

Miyajima Taki shook his head, said nothing more, and drank his glass of juice in silence.

*
At 9:30 in the evening, in a star-rated hotel in Kamakura.

Naoko Hayakawa stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the night view outside, took out her cell phone and called Rie Matsushima.

In fact, logically speaking, she shouldn't be here to see You and Yuki.

But she still couldn't help it.

Especially after Taki repeatedly emphasized that You's live performance was comparable to that of a professional singer, she couldn't hold back any more.

So after some disguise, she experienced You's scene in person.

Facts have proved that Taki did not exaggerate at all, and there was no exaggeration at all. He was completely realistic.

"Sister Shangzi?"

While she was lost in thought, she heard Matsushima Rie's voice on the phone.

"Rie? I have something I want to ask you for help with. Here's what's going on..."

She tried to explain the whole thing in a concise way, but before she could continue with the details, Matsushima Rie was like a worm in her stomach and started saying what she wanted to say.

"You want me to help them in a quiet way, like a well-known figure in the industry, right?"

On the other end of the phone, Matsushima Rie, who was sitting in the living room of her rental house in pajamas, raised her eyebrows and looked at a group of colleagues she had joined.

On the screen, messages are scrolling one after another.

The reason is that someone above posted a video.

She didn't watch the specific content of the video very carefully, but she saw the people in it clearly.

"Correct."

"If this is the case, I would have done it without you telling me. Just now, no, to be exact, right now, the group was discussing this matter."

Matsushima Rie paused.

“Once the Enden Session video is released, I will try to attract traffic for him.”

The person who just posted this video is her former direct superior and one of the well-known seniors in the industry.

But he has retired a long time ago and is currently living in Kamakura.

Since the senior posted this video and said, "These two kids are good," his attitude is already very clear.

But what she never expected was that the undercurrent was not only on her side, but also a related discussion had appeared on a well-known forum in Kamakura.

To be precise, it was a post in which a middle-aged man told his own story.

The content of the post was simple, the words were plain, and even the name was not eye-catching. But it was precisely because of this simplicity, plus the fact that it was posted at night, and the person's emo side, that it quickly caused a huge response.

It was titled, "After losing my job, I found redemption in a bar."
