I really just want to grind for entries related to crossover anime/manga.

"Are you really capable of handling this?"

Genkawa Yu remained silent for a moment.

"I don't know, but I will do my best."

Haruto Yamazaki looked at him but didn't ask any further questions.

As a friend, all he can do is stand by his side when he needs it, instead of adding to his burdens when he's already exhausted.

Okay then~

He said, taking another bite of the apple, "You can call me for help if you need anything, of course, after my leg has healed."

Genkawa Yu nodded.

After leaving the hospital, Genkawa Yu got into the car sent by Nakahara Kazuya and returned to [Star Engine].

The car drove smoothly through the streets of Tokyo. Genkawa Yu leaned back in the seat, still thinking about what Yamazaki Haruto had just said.

If we continue moving forward, there will be six people.

In this delicate emotional balance, any mishap in any link could cause the entire situation to collapse.

Entangled in each other with love, this is something Yuu Genkawa must do.

He cannot back down.

He uses his own way to take care of everyone, maintain every relationship, and ensure that no one is let down.

The car stopped.

Genkawa Yu got out of the car and walked into the gate of [Star Engine].

After entering the conference room with Kazuya Nakahara, the other party raised a situation that was quite important at the moment.

The man pointed to a computer next to the reception desk, whose screen displayed the official Twitter page of Star Engine Studio.

"Your fans have been leaving messages asking about your health."

Genkawa Yu walked over and took a look.

The latest post on his Twitter page was two days ago. At that time, Kazuya Nakahara and Yu Minakawa met on the island and, after confirming that he was alright, immediately posted this message.

"Yuichiro Yu is safe and sound, please don't worry."

Despite posting this reassuring message, the comment section continues to grow daily, with people wanting to know more about the situation.

"Yu-kun! I was completely stunned when I saw the news. I'm so glad you're safe."

"What did Yu-kun experience on the island? Can you tell us about it?"

"Yu-kun, you must take good care of yourself!"

"Could you send us more photos of Yu-kun? We want to make sure he's really okay."

Yu Minakawa has a huge fan base, and this earthquake has made all his fans extremely anxious.

Although the agency has issued a statement, fans are still unable to feel at ease without seeing Yu Genkawa in person.

"I'll just film a video; it'll be a good way to calm everyone down."

"That's a good idea. I'll go prepare the equipment. You go to the shooting room and wait for me."

After tidying up the shooting room and setting up the equipment, Genkawa Yu began to think about what to say.

As a public figure, he has an obligation to reassure those who care about him. Although he is currently on the path of a capitalist, appeasing his fans is also to ensure they continue to make money in the future.

Ten minutes later, the equipment was ready, and Kazuya Nakahara set up the camera and aimed it at Yuu Genkawa's face.

"Are you ready?" he asked.

Genkawa Yu nodded, and the camera's red light came on.

“Hello everyone,” Genkawa Yu began, his voice calm and gentle. “I am Genkawa Yu.”

"First of all, I want to say thank you to everyone who cares about me. Thank you for always thinking of me. I have seen every message you left on Twitter."

"I was outside when the earthquake struck, so I managed to escape in time. I was unharmed, in good physical and mental condition."

He paused, then continued.

"This earthquake has caused great damage to Kanomori Island. Many families have lost their homes and property, and some people have even lost their loved ones. I hope that everyone can pay attention to the post-disaster reconstruction work and do their part to help the people affected by the disaster if possible."

"We at Star Engine will also launch a fundraising campaign in the hope of helping the island's residents."

He looked at the camera, a faint smile playing on his lips.

"Finally, I'm really fine, so don't worry about me. I'll be back in front of you after some time."

Thank you everyone.

The camera's red light went out.

Kazuya Nakahara walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

"Mr. Genkawa, the filming is very good. I'll edit it and release it tonight."

Genkawa Yu nodded, stood up and looked out the window... By this time, it was already getting dark, the gray sky had turned into a deep blue, and the Tokyo Tower in the distance was lit up with orange lights.

"There are no announcements for a while, right? I need to rest for a few days."

"Of course, everything will be done as you wish."

Although Kazuya Nakahara is Yu Minakawa's manager, he is also Yu Minakawa's subordinate.

"Get some rest, Genkawa-kun."

"Ah."

Genkawa Yu nodded, turned around and walked out of the conference room.

At the [Sakura no Umi] office, a black sedan pulled up in front of the building.

The car door opened, and Akane Kurokawa stepped out. She glanced up at the "Sakura no Umi" sign and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This was actually her first time here; she was here today to have a "good talk" with Mai Sakurajima.

To be precise, it's to discuss a very important issue, which is... in Genkawa Yu's emotional world, what positions should the two of them occupy?

As she entered the office building, the receptionist immediately recognized her because they had spoken on the phone beforehand.

"Kurokawa-san, Sakurajima-san is already waiting for you in his office upstairs. I'll take you up."

"Ok."

The elevator slowly ascended, and Akane Kurokawa looked at her reflection in the mirrored elevator doors, composing herself.

After they both became aware of Yu Minakawa's romantic relationships, Akane Kurokawa and Mai Sakurajima were in a very delicate relationship. Their relationship wasn't good, but it wasn't bad either.

As more and more girls surrounded Yu Minakawa, Akane Kurokawa felt that she still needed to have a talk with Mai Sakurajima.

As the first person to develop feelings for Yuu Minakawa, she felt she had to do something.

Arriving at Mai Sakurajima's office, I knocked on the door.

"Please come in," came Mai Sakurajima's voice from inside.

Akane Kurokawa pushed open the door and entered. Mai Sakurajima was sitting behind her desk, holding a cup of coffee.

Today she wore a light white knit sweater with a skirt, her long hair was loosely tied back, and she wasn't wearing makeup, but she was still so beautiful that it was hard to look away.

Seeing Akane Kurokawa walk in, she put down her coffee cup and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

"You've arrived."

"Ah."

Akane Kurokawa sat down in the chair opposite her. "Sorry to bother you today."

"I won't bother you, I've been waiting for you."

This was said so naturally, like a casual conversation between two old friends.

“Sakurajima,” Akane Kurokawa began, without beating around the bush, “I’m here to talk to you about Yu-kun.”

Mai Sakurajima nodded, her expression showing no surprise whatsoever.

"Is it because of Higuchi and Kasumigaoka-sensei?"

"Yes."

Akane Kurokawa paused for a moment, then gave a wry smile.

"You probably know more than I do, right?"

"Pretty much. I know that Kasumigaoka-sensei likes Yu-kun, so it shouldn't be hard to guess."

"As for Higuchi..." Kurokawa Akane continued, "I asked Kato, and she knows about it."

"So what do you plan to do? Stop them from joining Yu-kun's harem?" Sakurajima Mai suddenly laughed, her eyes crinkling.

"No, I already promised Yu-kun that I wouldn't be jealous about this kind of thing anymore."

Once Akane Kurokawa has made a decision, she will not easily change it.

"So... what do you mean by coming to see me?"

Your account has been redirected to your account.

"I'd like to discuss with you what we should do."

Akane Kurokawa took a deep breath, as if organizing her thoughts.

"Although Yu-kun is not the type to easily tire of the old and crave the new, what would you do if someone came along and surpassed you?"

Mai Sakurajima put down her coffee cup, leaned forward slightly, and her expression became serious.

“Go on,” she said.

"On the day I arrived on the island, I made a point of observing Asakura and Kato's situation."

Akane Kurokawa knows about the same things as Mai Sakurajima, but her advantage is that she is Yu Minakawa's live-in boyfriend, so she can observe many people up close.

"Although Kato Megumi and Asakura Toru are also Yu-kun's lovers, their attitude towards the status quo is very clear. I have verified this. They will not actively fight for anything, nor will they deliberately show their importance."
