I am a voice actor, not your emotional support

Toru Uehara: "?"

He just wanted to say that he had something else to do, so what did Oda mean by starting to rant?

Is this the bond between brothers?

Uehara Toru: “You’re awesome.”

Oda: "Work hard for Ms. Aoki, okay? Then you have to win the Newcomer Award, the Best Actor of the Year, the Supporting Actor Award, and various achievement awards one by one."

"Then when the time comes, you can appoint me as your agent again. That will be fair to me, okay?"

Uehara Toru smiled when he heard this: "I see."

"Great! I finally found the opportunity. I'll hang up now. I'm still busy training new people. Recently, a few new people came in. They said they want to do some idol band project. I don't understand. Is this thing so popular?"

Toru Uehara: "If you have a channel, remember to tell me. I also have a band out there."

Oda: "Forget about yours. It's not even close to the original."

"By the way, is Ms. Aoki really that pretty? I haven't seen her yet. Send me a photo later..."

Uehara Toru hung up the phone before he could finish.

"You're in heat, aren't you?"

Toru Uehara smiled, and the more he thought about it, the happier he became. It turned out that buddies were really interesting.

Sakura Ayane had already pushed the door open. She looked at Uehara Toru, leaning against the door, and said enviously, "You have a really good relationship with your agent."

Uehara Tetsu: "We are almost brothers now."

Sakura Ayane: "That's great."

"If you and Mizuno are honest with each other, it won't be any worse than what I do." Toru Uehara stood up.

"Let's go, it's time to work."

As the breeze outside the window blew quietly, the heat in the room began to slowly subside.

After this subtle watershed in mid-August, the needle of seasons slowly points to autumn.

-

The first job after changing agents with Sakura Ayane was the GANGANGA channel. In a nutshell, this is a program where voice actors promote the latest light novel information, such as which light novels are going to be animated and the latest volume of light novels is on sale.

In short, the job is to let the voice actors face the camera on the spot, do promotions and chat at the same time.

However, unlike the absolute freedom of radio, the amount of promotional text in GANGANGA is very large. It can be said that 80% of it is promotion and 20% is just idle chat.

Therefore, how to make this program interesting is also a question that needs to be explored.

When we arrived at the scene, we saw a standard recording studio with a table, two chairs, and some two-dimensional decorations. All the utensils were in bright white.

其实略8显简5陋，但作为7声优录制的6节目，6已经算是不错3的配置了。’4、”(～

The work started quickly, and even if they moved to a different location and had cameras pointed at them, their atmosphere remained unchanged.

This has become a pattern. If we want to change it, the only way is probably to insert a third party.

Sakura Ayane always wants to stretch her beautiful legs from time to time while working, and seems to want to kick Uehara Toru intentionally or unintentionally.

Toru Uehara always avoided her just right every time and looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Sakura Ayane also smiled at him, as if nothing had happened just now.

"Okay, I'm a little thirsty after reading this. Senior, it's your turn."

Toru Uehara nodded and was about to start reading the script, but this time he wasn't paying attention and was kicked by Sakura Ayane.

"I say, you've almost reached the limit."

"Ok?"

"Supervisor, agent, she kicked me."

"Puff——" Sakura Ayane just took two sips of water and sprayed it out. Fortunately, she covered her mouth with her hands so it wasn't too dirty.

But it’s actually quite dirty.

Uehara Toru looked at her with disgust.

Sakura Ayane took the paper handed to her by the staff and wiped her mouth and hands.

"Senior, are you an elementary school student? Why do you want to complain about something like this?"

"Are your legs itchy today? Why are you kicking me for no reason?"

"It was an accident! Don't you see how short the table is? I like to cross my legs, so it's normal to kick it a little bit."

Toru Uehara: "?"

"Okay, let's continue."

So Toru Uehara started kicking her.

"It hurts!"

"Supervisor, agent, he kicked me!"

"You did it first."

"Senior... you really are just an elementary school student!"

There was an absolute sense of relaxation and they were bantering with each other in a measured way. Other people present didn't know whether these two people did it on purpose or they were just letting things flow to create some show effects.

No matter what, the laughter of the supervisor and photographer off the field is enough to prove everything. ∥9·

The new agent Aoki nodded with satisfaction.

It turns out that these two people don't need any guidance from me, all I need to do is put them in the same environment.

Then when we invite other guests over, it will be enough if they can continue to show this unique chemistry.

The agency won't ask them to actually have a relationship or anything like that.

If you really fall in love, it will only affect your work.

From this point of view, these two people are also perfect.

Ms. Aoki, who had done the background check, was very satisfied.

……

After the recording, Toru Uehara looked at Sakura Ayane and asked, "Did you do that on purpose?"

Sakura Ayane looked at the script, gently turned the pages with her hands, then put them down and said, "Yes, and no."

"?"

"Hehe, the way I just spoke is very similar to you, the kind that inexplicably feels that you are very powerful."

"Pretending?"

"Yes, just pretending."

"I never pretend to be cool." Toru Uehara sighed. He didn't know why, but the more he spent time with Sakura Ayane, the more he couldn't understand what was going on in this guy's mind.

The more we spend time together, the less I feel like I know you that well.

Sakura Ayane looked at him with a helpless look on his face and held his forehead, then kicked him lightly.

"Look."

Uehara Toru looked down at her outstretched snow-white legs, wondering: "?"

"I got new shoes."

"so what?"

"..." Sakura Ayin snorted coldly.

"nothing."

"very beautiful?"

"Really?" Sakura Ayane suddenly became happy again and looked at him with a smile.

Uehara Toru was speechless.

"You kicked me for so long, just for this?"

"So, yes and no."

"idiot."

"Senior, how dare you curse me!"

"Fool."

"Is there a difference between the two?"

"Sakura Ayane."

"Hey!"

Sakura Ayane pretended to hit him, but then 4 took back her own hand and made no physical contact with him.

Uehara Toru chuckled and said, "It seems that I will have one more curse word in my vocabulary from now on."

"Sakura Ayane...Pfft."

Sakura Ayane's face flushed like an autumn maple leaf, and she gently turned her head to the side.

"Toru Uehara."

This is a return to him.

-

Time has come to September. After the endless August, time suddenly passes quickly in September.

Although there was still work to do, Toru Uehara truly felt that the speed of time was different.

why?

Walking past the previous office, I noticed that the doors and windows were now sealed, and even the sign had been removed and replaced.

It looks like someone is planning to turn this place into a coffee restaurant.

His former company was turned into a cafe, and Toru Uehara had only one idea about it.

Fortunately, I am not unemployed.

He walked closer, looked around carefully, and confirmed that it was really empty. Only then did his heart begin to stir slightly.

After all, I have been here for five years.

Although most of the time it passes by in a hurry.

"Uehara-senpai?"

"Who are you...?" Toru Uehara looked at the strange man in front of him who greeted him, feeling a little confused.

I always feel that the other person is a little familiar, but I can't remember who he is.

"Ahaha, as expected, Uehara-senpai has forgotten about me..."

"I'm a newcomer who joined the firm not long ago, Qingtian, the one who often opens the door for you."

"Sorry, I don't remember. What's the matter?"

Toru Uehara's tone was still quite calm, much better than its previous coldness.

The weather was getting colder, but he was getting warmer.

"It's okay, I just want to talk to you."

"Senior, do you know that... Actually, the firm suddenly recruited a large number of new people. They didn't really want us to work for them. They just wanted to show off."

"I was still studying at the training school, and then I was suddenly told that I could debut as a voice actor. I was quite happy, but now it seems... it was just a passing cloud."

Uehara Toru felt a little strange after hearing this: "Aren't you with Um now?"

"Haha...that's impossible, senior. All of us newcomers were directly fired. Although agent Oda tried his best to help us, he could only recommend us to other agencies, and there was no way for us to stay." Qingtian said here, his eyes full of loneliness.

"Uehara-senpai, actually... I've wanted to be a voice actor for many years, but I was always stuck at the training center. I finally got this opportunity to join the agency, and I'm really grateful."

"Plus, agent Oda uses your story to inspire us every day, saying that you may not get a good role for five years, but as long as you accumulate enough, you will be able to soar to the sky. We all need to work hard, just wait for the opportunity and be prepared at all times."
