I am a voice actor, not your emotional support

Although it was just a misunderstanding, it might not be a bad thing for Toru Uehara.

In this way, Sumire Uesaka might realize the obstacles between them and give up those unrealistic fantasies, and their relationship can return to that of a pure teacher and student.

Sumire Uesaka didn't dare look directly at Toru Uehara. She lowered her head and said softly, "Teacher, my mother said that we are almost done for today. You can go back and rest."

Uehara Toru: “So fast?”

"OK then."

Although he was in someone else's home, Toru Uehara did not feel too uncomfortable, and did not even realize that time passed so quickly.

Sumire Uesaka was still confused at this time. Not long ago, Mrs. Uesaka had instilled many complicated ideas into her.

Having a girlfriend does not mean that the relationship will always be stable. As long as you wait patiently and seize the opportunity, everything is possible. The current task is to improve the favorability as much as possible and avoid making any shocking moves, such as the last "I wish you happiness" and so on.

Be steady and get closer to him through work and some activities, but at the same time keep a proper distance and don't be too ambiguous.

Sumire Uesaka kept her mother's teachings in mind and followed Uehara Toru silently, preparing to see him off.

When Mrs. Uesaka saw this scene, her eyes went dark.

Daughter, didn't I ask you to communicate with him more? What are you doing now?

She wondered why she was so good at love, but her daughter was like her Ikebukuro husband, totally clueless?

Sumire Uesaka had no idea what her mother was complaining about, but she had already planned her next move.

When Toru Uehara was sent to the door and was about to say goodbye, Sumire Uesaka suddenly clenched her fists and mustered up the courage to say to Toru Uehara:

"Teacher, do you remember the time we went cosplay together?"

"Hmm? Of course I remember." Toru Uehara replied.

"Actually... the reason I wanted to become a voice actor was because I wanted to become my favorite character." Sumire Uesaka's voice was firm.

Toru Uehara nodded slightly to show his understanding.

"So, I'd like to invite you to attend the comic convention in August. Can you... accompany me?" Sumire Uesaka asked expectantly.

Uehara Toru: “August…about what time is that?”

Uesaka Sumire: "14th to 17th."

Toru Uehara opened his phone and quickly checked his schedule.

"Thursday to Sunday, that should be possible," he replied, "If I'm not busy at work, I can go with you."

He thought to himself that he could also bring Nina and Subaru along, as they would probably also like this kind of activity.

After hearing Toru Uehara's answer, Sumire Uesaka's eyes lit up. She was always shy, but now she showed an innocent smile.

Uehara Toru looked at her smile and couldn't help but sigh. After all, she was just a child, about the same age as Renai, who had just started college and had grown up under the care of her parents.

Her understanding of boys may not be mature enough, so she is so easily moved.

However, just when Toru Uehara thought that Sumire Uesaka was just an innocent child, she suddenly spoke something in Russian in front of him.

"Teacher, I like you the most." (Teacher, I like you the most)

Toru Uehara: "...?"

...No, I just thought of this and you're going to slap me in the face?

After saying this in Russian, Sumire Uesaka hurriedly explained without waiting for Toru Uehara to speak.

"Teacher, I wish you a safe journey. That's what I meant by that sentence just now."

Toru Uehara: "..."

Are you trying to trick me into thinking I don't speak Russian?

Sorry, I went there specifically to learn it.

“Jin, you…”

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Uesaka Sumire.

Her pretty face flushed slightly, she took a few steps back and said, "Mom is still waiting for me, Teacher, I'll go back first."

Toru Uehara watched her leave quickly and stood by the door in silence for a moment.

Sure enough, people will only choose to give up after they have truly experienced pain?

Well, we can only wait until the comic convention to resolve this matter once and for all.

-

After Uehara Toru left, Uesaka Sumire looked at her mother happily and said, "Mom, as expected, the teacher is still very good to me. I think it's pretty good now."

"Uh... yeah, well, it's pretty good."

Mrs. Uesaka no longer knew what to say.

Even if she is my own daughter, I cannot take care of her.

"But Jin, you must remember, don't confess to him, don't give him the initiative to reject you, understand?"

"Well, I see."

Mrs. Uesaka looked at her daughter's silly look and sighed inwardly, "You'd better really know."

Volume 1: Chapter 88: Another Friend

Toru Uehara decided to put the matter of Sumire Uesaka aside for the time being. After all, they had no plans to meet again in the short term.

He planned to make it clear when he met her at the comic convention and reject her completely to put an end to the problem once and for all.

As for now, he needs to devote all his energy to work.

Now is the time to fulfill the promise that his agent had made to him.

In addition to his long-term meal ticket, he was offered a chance to play a small role in a larger serialized production.

Even though he was just a minor character who would be eliminated after appearing in just one episode, being able to appear in such a well-known work and work with many senior voice actors will undoubtedly greatly enrich his resume and be very helpful for future audition opportunities.

Different directors have different judging criteria. Although strength is the key most of the time, if the resume meets the requirements better, it will naturally become the preferred choice.

The first thing Toru Uehara had to do was this job.

When he got the script, he could hardly believe his eyes.

The agent told him on Line that it was a large-scale serialized work, but deliberately kept the name of the work secret.

As a result, to his surprise, the work he was going to participate in was "Detective Conan"!

Toru Uehara blinked and looked at his agent's smiling face.

"How about it? This is the only spot left, and I worked very hard to get it for you. I remember you said that there is a voice actor you particularly like in "Detective Conan", right?" the agent asked.

Uehara Toru swallowed and nodded.

Indeed, he has always liked Hayashibara Megumi, the voice actor who voiced Haibara Ai.

At the end of his senior year exams, Toru Uehara had been thinking about what he should pursue and what he wanted to do in the future.

By chance, he heard Hayashibara Megumi's radio program and gained a lot of inspiration from it. This made him really begin to understand the profession of voice actor.

It can be said that Hayashibara Megumi is like a guiding North Star for him, and is also the key to opening the door to his voice actor career.

The agent smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Take a look at that long-term meal ticket."

Uehara Toru: "Monster Strike?"

"It is one of the hottest games in the mobile gaming industry right now. You will be responsible for the new character they are about to launch. Go back and prepare well. Now you will have access to more resources in the firm."

Toru Uehara nodded and immediately began to study the two scripts as soon as he got home.

Some people may not understand the importance of "Monster Strike". Simply put, everyone should be familiar with FGO, but "Monster Strike" has been able to surpass FGO for a long time, and its revenue ranking has always been at the top. It is a mobile game that has been operating for more than ten years.

Many voice actors are also playing this game themselves, and quite a few are even spending a lot of money on it, almost returning all their income from dubbing for the mobile game to the game company, a complete salary recovery plan.

It can be seen that the remuneration for mobile game dubbing is very generous, even higher than the remuneration for advertising slogans and narration.

Depending on the plot of different activities, voice actors also need to participate in dubbing. From this perspective, there is nothing wrong with saying that it is a long-term meal ticket.

But for Toru Uehara, what he values ​​more than money is the feeling of constantly climbing up.

Thinking of this, he gently closed the script and looked up at the boundless blue sky.

He hasn't been back to his hometown for six years, but now he has finally achieved some results and should be able to go home next year.

Thinking of his family, Toru Uehara couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

He couldn't wait to see his father's expression now.

-

The dubbing work for Monster Strike was done in a single-person recording booth, with a fixed amount of lines and very clear supervisory requirements. After Uehara Toru completed the dubbing strictly according to the requirements, it took only 20 minutes to finish the work.

The quick completion of the work even made him feel a little empty.

However, the highlight is yet to come.

A supporting role in Detective Conan.

Although it is a minor role, it can actually be considered a supporting role.

The character he has to voice is a cheating scumbag who dies about six minutes after appearing on the screen, and has a considerable amount of lines.

In addition, in this episode Conan and his partners will analyze and reveal the cause of his death, and the most exciting thing is that it is said that Hayashibara Megumi will also participate in the dubbing work of this episode.

The thought of being able to dub with my idol who is also a voice actor.

Toru Uehara felt a sense of nervousness for the first time in a long time. He came to the designated recording studio and hesitated near the door for a while without going in.

"Uehara-kun?"

A gentle and delicate female voice came from behind.

Nana Toyama, who also came here to work, looked at Toru Uehara with some curiosity.

"Dongshan?" Toru Uehara turned around and looked at her. He didn't expect to meet her again.

"Eh? Uehara-kun, are you also a Confession?"

Nana Toyama took out her script, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she blinked.

Toru Uehara glanced at her character.

What a coincidence, the character she voiced was the mistress who had an affair with her own character.

Nana Toyama's character exited the plot earlier than his, appearing for only about four minutes before leaving the screen.

There is no need to think too much, the murderer must be his character's original wife, so this episode of "Detective Conan" is a very standard proof question.

"I didn't expect that Uehara-kun also got the same job. What a coincidence."

Uehara Tetsuya smiled and nodded: "It's a coincidence indeed. By the way, Toyama-san, I really appreciate your help with Ninai and the others last time."

"Ah, it's okay, it's nothing. Besides, Renai-chan is very cute. But is she really your niece?"

"niece?"

Nana Touyama nodded confidently: "That's what she told me."

Uehara Tetsu: "Yeah... indeed, they are distant relatives, so the last name is different."

"I see. That's really amazing because all my distant relatives have the same surname as me. This is the first time I've heard of someone with a different surname."

Toru Uehara smiled and didn't bother to explain. He just thought that there was nothing wrong with having a niece.

The silly kid Renai at least gave him a lot of comfort. Even though she was sometimes so silly that she got high blood pressure, she was still cute and likable most of the time.

"Then it's about time, Uehara-san, let's go in."

"I was quite nervous at first, but now that I see you're here, I feel much better."

The dubbing scene of "Detective Conan" is full of senior voice actors, so you must be careful and cautious. If you accidentally leave a bad impression on any senior, it will be detrimental to your future career.

After all, many animation directors have close working relationships with these voice actors.

As soon as Toru Uehara and Nana Toyama stepped into the recording studio, they saw several senior voice actors chatting and laughing.

Hayashibara Megumi, Takayama Minami, Oyama Rikiya - Maori Kogoro, Chafu Lin - Inspector Megure.
