He is an idol and a childhood sweetheart.

"It's not very likely, but it's certain."

Asakura Toru was very convinced of this.

"Now is the time when Xian Ren is most short of manpower. As long as you think it's okay, Sister Hiyori, Xian Ren will definitely agree."

"……Alright alright."

Seeing Toru Asakura being so confident, Hashimoto Hiyori could only shrug helplessly:

"Since you said so, let's quickly say hello to Mr. Watanabe——"

"excuse me."

"Let me knock on the door a little!"

"It's okay, it's okay. Anyway, Xianren should still be working now... ah?"

As a result, Toru Asakura who pushed the door in did not see Kento Watanabe in front of his desk as she thought.

But after quickly scanning the entire office, she immediately found her target this time——

"It's so rare... a wise man is taking a nap!"

Looking at the figure lying on the sofa, Asakura Toru felt quite shocked.

For this workaholic who always tries his best to squeeze out his spare time, taking a nap is a rare occasion.

"I always thought this guy was an iron man who never needed a lunch break... This is really rare!"

"This is Mr. Watanabe..."

On the other side, Hashimoto Hiyori, who followed Toru Asakura into the office, naturally saw Kento Watanabe sleeping on the sofa.

At first, she was a little hesitant as to whether it would be too impolite to directly observe other people's sleeping postures at close range, but soon, after taking a brief look at Kento Watanabe's sleeping posture, she immediately cheered up.

"...I feel like it doesn't feel like an ordinary nap."

First took a look

Kento Watanabe glanced at the mobile phone that was still in his hand, and then glanced at his completely unadjusted and awkward sleeping posture. Hashimoto Hiyori couldn't help but frown slightly:

"His body is on the sofa, but his feet are still on the ground, and his expression is not relaxed at all...Rather than taking a nap, it feels more like he accidentally fainted due to excessive exhaustion... "

"……Eh?"

When Asakura Toru heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly approached Kento Watanabe, and carefully began to observe his sleeping appearance——

"Ah, it's true... his expression looks so uncomfortable. It's completely different from his usual sleeping state."

"...I guess I'm really tired, so I just thought of taking a rest on the sofa."

Hiyori Hashimoto smiled bitterly and said:

"I'm very familiar with this situation. When I first joined Pulchra, I was often tired to this extent... Forget it, let's wake him up quickly, Tooru. Although he is very tired, but this It will be quite uncomfortable if you sleep in this position for a long time."

"I see."

After hearing this, Toru Asakura nodded immediately, and then she turned around and walked towards the light switch at the door under Hiyori Hashimoto's surprised gaze——

"Are you...?"

"Sage is difficult to wake up once he falls asleep, but strangely, he is always very sensitive to changes in light."

As he spoke, Toru Asakura turned on the light.

"Anyway, Higuchi and I have been waking him up like this since elementary school."

"Hey, there is such a thing..."

Hashimoto Hiyori has never seen such a strange way of awakening.

However, it was precisely this kind of information that outsiders had no way of knowing, that made Hashimoto Hiyori once again realize how close the relationship between Asakura Toru and the Watanabe Kento was.

"As expected of childhood sweethearts."

Hashimoto Hiyori couldn't help but sigh.

What happened next was just as Toru Asakura said. The two of them clearly did not lower their voices at all, but the other party never showed any signs of waking up. As a result, the moment the light was turned on, Kento Watanabe's His eyelids immediately trembled slightly. Not long after, he slowly opened his eyes and looked around with a rather confused look——

“Um, when did I fall asleep………eh?”

The first thing that appeared in his field of vision was an adult woman wearing OL clothes, glasses, and a clean and refreshing single ponytail.

Kento Watanabe was very sure that he had never seen her, and he was also very sure that he did not invite anyone to the office in the afternoon...

After confirming that the woman in front of him was indeed a stranger, Kento Watanabe suddenly showed an extremely confused expression, as if he was doubting his mental state at this time.

He couldn't help but begin to wonder if he was hallucinating because of overexertion.

However, the next second, when he saw Toru Asakura walking from the door, his originally groggy brain was immediately activated and awakened. At the same time, he no longer doubted his mental state at this time——

"Eh? Tooru!?"

Kento Watanabe exclaimed with surprise on his face.

"How did you come!?"

"Needless to say, of course I came back to report."

Asakura Toru was also very satisfied with the undisguised joy shown by Kento Watanabe.

Just to see Kento Watanabe's expression, she didn't inform him that she would come to see him this afternoon.

"I told you on the phone, right? I have terminated my contract with Pulchra!"

"I did say it, but it's only been two days. Regarding your contract..."

"It's been solved! Now I'm completely free!"

"Huh?! To be able to relent so quickly... It seems that Pulchra really suffered a big setback this time."

Naturally, Pulchra knows better than anyone else the commercial value of Toru Asakura.

Being able to hand over such a popular artist so simply shows that Pulchra is in a completely "passive" state.

While lamenting Pulchra's tragic overturn, Kento Watanabe once again realized what a powerful and powerful man this mysterious man who extended a helping hand to Asakura Toru and himself was.

If you have the opportunity to meet the other person, you must express your gratitude to the other person...

At the same time, after successfully receiving the reaction he expected, Toru Asakura did not forget the fellow traveler beside him.

"Then this is the one I introduced to you before - my agent at Pulchra, Sister Hiyori!"

"First meeting, Mr. Watanabe. My name is Hiyori Hashimoto, and I am the manager of the former Pulchra."

Hashimoto Hiyori bowed to Kento Watanabe very politely:

"I've heard a lot about you from Tooru. I'm glad to meet you."

"First meeting...I am Kento Watanabe, the producer of Watanabe Office."

Kento Watanabe rubbed his eyes, which were still a little heavy, and then showed an embarrassed smile.

"I'm sorry for showing you such a shameful look."

"It's okay, I can understand."

Hashimoto Hiyori shook his head and said with a slightly

He said with a sympathetic tone:

"Did the matter between Pulchra and Toru put a lot of burden on you this time? Considering Toru's popularity, the workload she caused is definitely not something that one person can handle."

"Yeah... I obviously started processing emails right after I came back from a business trip, but I haven't been able to finish them until now..."

Having said this, Kento Watanabe couldn't help but stretched out his hand and gently rubbed his eyebrows.

"No, I can't waste any more time. I have to continue checking my mailbox..."

"...If possible, could you let me participate a little bit?"

Facing this poor man with exhaustion written all over his face, Hashimoto Hiyori decided to take the initiative and said:

"I have some experience in sorting out work emails."

"Eh!? Although I do need help right now...but is it okay?"

Kento Watanabe's eyes widened when he heard this.

For this person who can be called "sister" by Toru Asakura, Kento Watanabe will naturally not have any doubts about her. He just feels a little embarrassed for the kindness of the other party.

"Obviously I haven't officially hired you yet, so this is simply asking you to work for Watanabe Office for free..."

"Don't mind it, just think of it as a small repayment."

Hashimoto Hiyori smiled and replied:

"Thank you for raising Tooru so well. Thanks to her, I finally feel the meaning of my hard work."

"It's my side. Thank you for taking care of Toru for me in Pulchra. Without you, Toru and I don't know what we would be like now."

Kento Watanabe will naturally not forget the kindness of the other party.

In fact, without Hashimoto Hiyori's protection and tolerance for Asakura Toru, Asakura Toru might not be able to continue his normal activities as an idol. As for his achievements so far, it is naturally impossible to talk about it.

"When the work at hand is finished, I will definitely thank you more formally... As for today, I can only ask you to help me again."

"Leave it to me...can I use the empty desk next to you?"

"Excuse me. The socket is in the drawer. I'll connect it for you."

"Ok."

Having said that, Hashimoto Hiyori walked to the table next to Kento Watanabe and set up the workbook in his briefcase very skillfully.

"The password for the wireless network is the numbers 1 to 8, and the firm's email account is..."

"Can I see some old emails? I'd like to have a little reference to the previous situation."

"No problem...I'll send you the office schedule and Unius information via the LAN."

"it is good."

Probably because both of them are very efficient at work, their communication and actions can be said to be smooth and smooth.

At the same time, because the two people's daily work is very similar, even if they meet for the first time, they already have a tacit understanding that is completely different from their first acquaintance.

However, although the communication between the two went very smoothly, Toru Asakura, who was left alone, tilted his head in confusion.

"…………kindness?"

Asakura Toru, who had not said a word at all since the beginning, suddenly showed a confused expression.

Because of the series of impacts brought about by the Pulchra incident, the current sage is the busiest period... Toru Asakura is well aware of this.

The question she is most concerned about now is whether the speed of getting to know each other a little too quickly between Ken Watanabe and Hiyori Hashimoto?

"Why do you always feel like...what's weird?"

Although the two of them have known each other for less than an hour, their communication has become so tacit that they are like partners who have been working together for many years...

But think about it, after all, the two people's daily work contents are very similar, and their work philosophies are also very similar. They will definitely be able to reach consensus in many aspects... and Asakura also saw it. This is why I want to introduce her to Kento Watanabe...

……

…………

Wait, wait?

Is it possible that compared to the three Unius sisters, Hiyori, who is mature and has more common topics, is the most "dangerous" potential opponent? !

Looking at the two people who had completely switched to working mode, Asakura Toru couldn't help but feel a subtle tension different from when facing Higuchi...

Chapter 30: The Transformation of Watanabe Office

Before deciding to leave Pulchra, Hashimoto Hiyori spent considerable effort investigating information related to Kento Watanabe and the Watanabe Agency.

Although Hiyori Hashimoto dotes on Toru Asakura, she is not the kind of impulsive person who does things without thinking. Although Pulchra's work is boring, it can at least bring her considerable and stable income.

If Watanabe Office cannot give her a better working experience and see corresponding development prospects, then there is no reason for her to leave with it.

For very practical reasons and considerations, Hashimoto Hiyori decided to investigate the person who was likely to become his future boss.

Although she could have asked Asakura Toru, considering Asakura's "blind faith" attitude towards Kento Watanabe, she decided to obtain information through her own investigation.
