My girlfriend is Kusunoko Saiki

At this time, a girl named Sakura Chiyo was comforting Kashima Yu in front of her, and also poked a classmate named Nozaki who was concentrating on eating.

"Well, after all, it's the work of Mr. ONE. My brother Jian said that the casting is very strict. It is said that Mr. ONE himself went there this time. Kashima, did you see it?"

At this time, Kashima's friends saw Kashima's condition and thought that Kashima was in a bad mood because of the unfavorable audition. However, it was indeed true.

Thinking of her previous performance in front of the director and Naoto, Kashima felt embarrassed. Compared with her performance in the drama club, it could be described as being in poor condition, at least that was her opinion.

Especially later, when Naoto simply asked Kashima to try out for a male role, I felt extremely insulted. Why did he end up auditioning for the male lead?

Kashima didn't dare tell these things to his good friends, for he was really afraid of being laughed at.

"Be happy. After all, you still have a lot of time. How can a high school student get a role in a big crew so quickly? Let's talk about it after you join the agency."

"Hori-senpai..."

Kashima felt extremely touched when he saw that Hori-senpai, who had always only been able to blow him in the head, actually started to comfort him.

We are all good people, and it turns out that only my good friends can comfort me at this time.

"Dingling bell~"

Just when Kashima was about to share his audition experience with everyone, Kashima's cell phone suddenly rang. When Kashima saw the number on the phone, he was confused for a moment, and then his face immediately became nervous like a student who was about to take the college entrance examination.

"This, could it be..."

After seeing Kashima's expression suddenly become so nervous, everyone around Kashima seemed to have guessed something and they all looked at Kashima nervously.

Looking at everyone's reloading, it seems that they are even more nervous than Kashima himself.

In this tense atmosphere, Kashima slowly answered the call from the director.

"Hello."

"Yes, I am right."

"Okay, no problem, I'm interested!"

"Thank you, director. I will work harder!"

When Kashima answered the phone, his expression immediately became complicated.

It seemed that her life had never been so complicated.

"Kashima, what's going on?"

"Yeah, did it work? Did it work?!"

Kashima looked at his friends in front of him with a complicated expression, and then gave the answer to this audition in extremely complicated words.

"It's a success, but I'm going to play the leading role."

"Pfft! Ahem, wait, you? The male lead? No, no! Wait, let's not talk about why you're the male lead, how did you get this role? Kashima, are you..."

At this time, Senior Hori looked at Kashima with suspicion.

Could it be that Kashima did something strange for this role? Although I have always heard about the dark side of the entertainment industry, Kashima would not do that, right? Wait, think about it, if Kashima changed into women's clothes, she would indeed be a beautiful girl.

"This is probably because of ONE-sensei, although I have mixed feelings."

"Teacher ONE? What's going on? Tell us quickly!"

At this time, Chiyo asked Kashima with curiosity. She wanted to know what happened to Kashima that he became the male protagonist of this movie.

"this matter……"

In response to the questions from his predecessor, Kashima immediately told everyone everything that happened that day.

After hearing about the fantastic experience of that day, everyone sighed that Kashima was really lucky.

"So that teacher ONE is actually this kind of person? It's really, a little unbelievable."

"By the way, Nozaki, you also publish comics in monthly magazines, right? Haven't you ever met ONE teacher?"

"Although I am also serialized in JUMP Monthly, I have never seen him in the editorial department. After all, ONE's main focus is still on the weekly magazine."

When talking about Naoto, Nozaki-kun also felt a little regretful that he didn't get to see this legend in the Japanese comics world.

Speaking of Nozaki, he is only a minor celebrity in girls’ comics, not to mention that he is serialized in a monthly magazine.

Compared to the more powerful weekly magazines, he is still somewhat unqualified.

"So this is ah."

"But I really admire ONE teacher, and I have always wanted to be a cartoonist like him. It's amazing that Kashima can become the male protagonist of Parasyte this time."

"I didn't expect that you, who are usually unreliable, are actually quite capable at critical moments. But if you go to the crew, you better be careful. The director and assistant director of the crew are not so easy to talk to."

In response to everyone's concern, Kashima couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Although everyone’s concern and congratulations are really nice, I always feel that my feelings are more complicated.

I clearly just wanted to play a female role well, but now all of a sudden, I have become the male lead.

I always feel so stressed right now. I don't know if I will have stomachache due to the stress later.

Chapter 160: Nozaki-kun and Naoto

"That's great. You-chan is the male lead of a big drama. You'll be a big star in the future! You have to get an autograph now!"

"It's not like what you said. Besides, I don't know if I will fail. If I fail this time, I will be completely finished!"

"Don't worry, You-chan, you will succeed."

After congratulating Kashima, everyone began to become curious about other characters in the crew.

"What I know now is that the heroine will be played by Ms. Nakano Ichika, and Kana will be played by Ms. Sakurajima Mai. The other roles are also played by seniors who are very famous in the film and television industry."

After hearing these familiar names, everyone couldn't help but sigh that it was ONE's work that attracted so many outstanding actors to participate. You know, these characters, if placed in other movies, can all be the presence of the stage.

"That's great. I also want to ask Miss Ichika for an autograph."

"Yes, and there's Miss Mai's. This is one of the few comebacks Miss Mai has made in the past few years."

"So, how about coming to visit the crew this week?"

When I heard that my friends cared so much about what was happening on the crew, I couldn't help but say these words.

"Is it okay? Won't it cause trouble to others in the crew?"

"Should be, right? Last time, the director said that there were many extras that hadn't been found yet. Otherwise, why don't you give it a try?"

Although Kashima's words were just a joke, everyone couldn't help but start thinking about whether they should go to the crew to take a look in this way.

After all, this is a chance to observe idols up close.

"Nozaki-kun, you should go too! Maybe ONE-sensei will be there too."

"Is this really okay?"

After hearing that Naoto might also join the crew, Nozaki-kun couldn't help but start to hesitate.

And here, we have to mention Nozaki himself.

Umetaro Nozaki is a high school boy with a blank expression on his face. He is 190cm tall and a former basketball player. He is a little-known girl cartoonist with the pen name "Yumeno Sakiko". His cartoon "Moe Ai" is very popular among female readers.

Although he is a male high school student who is a bit slow, speaks without thinking, and has a cold personality, his hidden identity is "Yumeno Sakiko", a popular girl manga artist known as the "spokesperson for girls' minds" for her delicate psychological descriptions.

Nozaki has a high level of feminine charm and is proficient in all household chores, including cooking. In order to balance his studies and comic creation, he lives alone near the school. His principle is to create more perfect works through personal experience, but he often loses his way.

Such a Nozaki had already become a well-known cartoonist in high school.

Especially among girls, the comics he created are regarded as masterpieces and are a guide to love for girls.

And in addition to having an extremely strong love for comics, he also has extremely terrible feelings for the characters he created.

Treat the male and female protagonists you created as your own children.

Perhaps it is because of this kind of feeling that Nozaki became a successful cartoonist.

But speaking of Nozaki-kun and Naoto, there is a bit of a story there.

There was a period of lost time when Nozaki had not yet serialized this comic.

At that time, Nozaki thought that he was not worthy of being called a cartoonist because he could not create good works.

I even tried to give up the career of cartoonist.

And that time also became the most painful time for Nozaki.

It was under such circumstances that Naoto officially debuted.

When Nozaki heard that a boy of the same age as him had become a cartoonist and was even serializing his works in Hell Weekly, he was extremely surprised.

The more Nozaki got to know Naoto, the more he admired his ruthlessness.

Naoto's experience at that time had a great impact on Nozaki, and the Vampire Diaries comics also gave Nozaki a lot of inspiration.

It is precisely because of this that Nozaki has achieved what he has today.

It is also because of this that Nozaki has regarded Naoto as his idol without knowing when.

Just like Naoto’s idol is ONE, in a sense, the two are actually very similar.

On the other side, in Naoto’s house——————

"You want me to help you again? I say, that's enough! You are the director and screenwriter of this movie, why do you always need my help? I tell you, I was already very busy the last time I went there, and I don't have time now!"

At this time, after Naoto received another call from the director, he got angry at the person on the other end.

After all, Zhiren is not a tool who needs to be on call at any time. He is the boss of these two people!

"Teacher ONE, this is really the last time! Please, please, just help us this time! Many of the actors here were attracted by your fame. Everyone came here just for you. If you don't show up, we won't be able to explain ourselves."

As if he could hear Naoto's anger, the director on the other side could only beg.

Who would have thought that things would turn out like this? There are many people in the crew who are fans of Naoto. If Naoto didn't show up, they wouldn't even be able to manage him.

Moreover, each person here is a big shot. Small figures like them don't have much suppressive power at all. They really need help from straight people to do it.

There is really no other way. If Naoto hadn't come, the final script might have been completely different.

"You guys, ha~! That's enough, this is the last time!"

After hanging up the phone, Naoto felt truly helpless.

Why hasn't this matter ended yet?

"Naoto, do you have anything else to do this weekend?"

At this time, Nan Zi heard Naoto's phone call and rushed over.

"Nanzi, I'm really sorry, something urgent happened over there, and I can't turn it down."

Naoto felt even more guilty about the appearance of Kusunoki. They had already planned to have a picnic in the park this week, but it seemed that it had gone wrong again.

"But we can actually try a different way of dating."

"Change it? What do you mean?"

"Actually, I'm also quite curious about what's going on with the crew. If possible, could you take me to the crew to take a look?"

Naoto agreed without thinking too much about the fact that Kusunoko actually took the initiative to go to the crew with him.

However, it is still unknown what Nan Zi’s plan is.

Chapter 161: Encounter in the Crew

"Is this the crew? There are so many people here."

Another weekend came, and Kusunoki, accompanied by Naoto, joined the crew of Parasyte.

It was only around eight o'clock in the morning, but people started coming and going.

In order to hurry up for the release, everyone in the crew is working hard to film.

Not to mention eight o'clock in the morning, even around six o'clock, some people have already started working.

And this busy state will even continue until 10 o'clock in the evening or even later.

But even so, no one complained about the hardship or tiredness. Because for actors, this kind of work is just a drop in the bucket. They have long been accustomed to it.

In this crew, stars are not a rare thing at all. Pick any one here and he or she will most likely be an actor with great fame outside.

Here, Naoto was very cautious, afraid that someone would find out.
