He is an idol and a childhood sweetheart.

"No, no, no, no matter what, it would be too embarrassing to be a pretty boy."

Kento Watanabe quickly shook his head and put aside the useless thoughts in his mind.

He has basically become a passive party in emotional matters, and he will never allow himself to fall into the same situation on the material level.

Kento Watanabe couldn't help but tremble slightly as he briefly imagined the scene in which his future self would be raped by Toru Asakura or Enka Higuchi.

This is no longer just a spiritual issue of dignity!If it really develops into that situation, they will definitely eat it up!If it is more extreme, he may even be directly deprived of his personal freedom!

"...Sure enough, we still need to solve the funding problem as soon as possible!"

In this way, because of the accidental chat between the two of them that day, Kento Watanabe avoided a certain Bad END that was almost achieved.

Chapter 61: The current scene

At the end of autumn, the arrival of every autumn rain seems to herald the approach of winter.

When he took out the thickened shirt that had not been seen for half a year from the closet and looked at the slightly messy folds on the shirt, Kento Watanabe couldn't help but fell into a trance.

It's incredible.

Obviously the last time he wore this shirt, he was like a ghost floating in Shibuya, and he used his self-destructive efforts to try to maintain his unrealistic fantasy.

And now...his agency already has four outstanding new idols and a reliable agent colleague. Not only that, his two most important childhood sweethearts have also returned to him, and they have both become An idol he was proud of.

I really want to share a little of his happiness at the moment with myself half a year ago...

After changing into autumn clothes, he opened the window and lit a cigarette while he was alone in the office.

Kento Watanabe likes the feeling of smoking on rainy days. Not only does the smell of smoke dissipate faster, but the humid air always gives him the illusion that the smell of smoke becomes stronger.

During his most difficult period, he smoked half a pack of cigarettes almost every day. If it rained, he might even smoke a whole pack in one day.

In this way, if it weren't for the fact that Mode. Modern's studio was completely non-smoking, he might not have been able to control his smoking so quickly...

"...You have to quit one day."

Looking at the cigarette case in his hand, Kento Watanabe said to himself:

"And everyone seems to want me to quit as soon as possible."

Especially Higuchi Enka, every time he took out a cigarette and lighter in front of her, she would move away from him with a look of disgust, and then look at him with her eyes full of "murderous intent" Conveying invisible pressure.

Thinking of this, Kento Watanabe suddenly felt an unreasonable chill on his spine...

"It's so scary...today's female high school students."

"Is it?"

"Yeah, you don't know, when Enxiang keeps an eye on someone, she's really...

Halfway through, Kento Watanabe finally realized that the chill he just felt was not just because of the impression left by Enka Higuchi——

"Good morning... Enka."

"...It started early in the morning."

Higuchi Enka glanced at the cigarette on Watanabe Kento's fingertips and shook his head slightly.

"Are you really serious about quitting smoking?"

"Of course, I just like to smoke on rainy days. If you don't believe me, look at this."

Kento Watanabe opened the cigarette box and showed Higuchi Enka the number of cigarettes inside.

"I even smoked one yesterday."

"...Well, indeed."

After checking the number of cigarettes, Higuchi Enka's expression became slightly more relaxed.

"Let's keep up the good work and keep it up."

"received."

Kento Watanabe chuckled and nodded, then leaned toward the window and slowly exhaled a puff of cigarette.

"Didn't Tooru come with you?"

"She went to the bathroom."

"That's it."

Looking down at the time, Watanabe Kento immediately cleared away the cigarettes in his hand.

And just when he was about to stand at the window for a while to let the smell of cigarette smoke dissipate quickly, another voice suddenly sounded behind him——

"Good morning, producer-sama, Higuchi-senpai."

"...Ah, good morning, Rinse."

Duye Rinse also arrived at the office, holding an umbrella with a hydrangea pattern in his hand.

"Sorry, I was smoking just now, so I have to open the window for a while. If it's too cold, turn up the air conditioner temperature."

"It's okay...I don't feel cold."

Duye Rinse shook his head and came to Watanabe Kento's side.

"But Mr. Producer... standing in front of the window wearing only a shirt is a bit - ah."

Halfway through, Duye Rinse, who was close to Kento Watanabe, naturally noticed the many wrinkles on his clothes.

"It seems that the clothes were not neatly folded when collecting them, Mr. Producer."

"Ahaha...Sorry, I was a little lazy when I was alone in the office."

"Then...does the producer have any other autumn clothes?"

Duye Rinshi asked.

"I can iron it for you."

"Yeah...I can do this kind of thing alone, Rinshi, you don't have to-uh..."

Before Kento Watanabe finished speaking, he noticed that Duye Rinshi seemed to be looking at him with extremely expectant eyes.

Then, he first looked at Higuchi Enka who was standing aside and wanted to ask her what she meant. As a result, Higuchi Enka had no intention of participating in the conversation between the two. At this time, she was sitting quietly on the sofa with her hand on her hand. Holding his mobile phone, he didn’t seem to even raise his head...

"How about... just... please?"

Facing those eyes full of expectation and desire, Kento Watanabe really couldn't say no words of rejection.

"There are only two or three pieces that wrinkle easily, but the others are probably fine..."

"Yes, please leave it to me."

After receiving a positive reply, Duye Rinshi immediately showed a bright smile, looking very happy.

Is this child's dedication and girl power a little too strong?Although she is only a first-year JK, she can already give people a sense of security as a marriageable woman.

"Rinshi is the type who can easily raise useless people..."

"?what does that mean?"

"nothing……"

Kento Watanabe shook his head with a smile and put the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray.

It was obvious that he had just rejected the other party not long ago, but it would be too rough to talk about such topics as "life after marriage" now...

"Wow... I'm so unlucky. Why did it suddenly rain on the way here!"

At this moment, Daidon Yuko's voice came from far outside the office.

Soon, Yuko Daidon appeared in the eyes of everyone with a look of displeasure, her whole body soaked by the rain.

"Towel, towel, towel...ah, you two came so early."

"Ah...the useless man is here."

"Huh? What did you just say?"

"I'm going to get a towel for Senior Dai right now."

"Thank you, Rinshi."

Daito Yuko took off her headband and slightly gathered her hair that was spread to her shoulders. In order to prevent Yuuko from getting cold further, Kento Watanabe immediately closed the window...

Immediately afterwards, just when Kento Watanabe was about to say something to care about Fuyuko, Toru Asakura just came back from the bathroom——

"I'm here, everyone~ eh? The one wearing a knitted sweater, soaked all over and with hair hanging loose is..."

"It's me!"

"Oh, it's Fuyuko...Isn't it completely soaked? How pitiful."

"Fire..."

There is nothing more annoying than being pitied by Toru Asakura, who is always the most out-of-touch person.

"I will definitely check the weather forecast before going out in the future! Hey, producer, you should have some spare clothes, right? Let me wear them first, and then I'll help you wash them."

"Okay, I'll get it for you now."

"Eh? You can still use this method to trick a wise man into wearing his clothes? You are indeed an incredible wise general."

"Huh!? Don't think everyone is like you! I didn't mean to get caught in the rain!"

"Sage, I'm going to go out and get wet in the rain now.

Is it too late? "

"Please be sure not to do this..."

"I'm bringing a towel... for you, Senior Dai."

"Thank you so much!"

"..."

Looking at Higuchi Enka who was silently adjusting the temperature of the air conditioner with the remote control, and then at the noisy three people on the other side, Watanabe Kento couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head.

"This is really..."

Although I don’t know what the future of Watanabe Office will be like, the current situation alone makes Kento Watanabe feel extremely satisfied and happy.

He would not expect this happiness to last forever, but at least until their idol graduation, he hoped that they could continue to get along in this harmonious way.

……

Of course, if he could, he would naturally continue to look for that unknown... method that could make everyone happy.

I just don’t know if this possibility really exists...

Just when Kento Watanabe was filled with emotion and wanted to return to his position and start today's work, his cell phone ringtone suddenly rang.

And when he picked up the phone and looked at the name on the screen, he suddenly showed a stunned expression——

"Kachi Terumi...?"

Chapter 62: Everyone performs their duties

"I brought you here... for no particular reason, just a whim."

In a private manor in Kyoto, Terumi Kachi held the sparkling wine served by the waiter in one hand and said:

"In the past, I accepted this kind of invitation and brought models and artists. Although they looked eye-catching, it would be a bit boring to keep doing this. So, I want to try a little change...for example, bring the latest entertainment A member of the firm that caused the uproar in the circle.”

"This, that's it..."

Kento Watanabe, who was wearing a suit and leather shoes, and even his hair was carefully taken care of with hair wax, responded with a wry smile:

"As expected of Mr. Kachi, his style of conduct is indeed unique... But haven't you ever worried that we, who have never participated in high-end banquets, will embarrass you?"

"In that case, it's okay. After all, I'm friends with most of the guests here. It's just an occasional embarrassment that won't affect my social status. As for you~"

Having said this, Terumi Kachi looked at Kento Watanabe with a half-smile but not a smile:

"If you leave a bad first impression on the guests present, then I can't guarantee what will happen next."

"I see...danger and opportunity coexist."

Although Terumi Kachi's answer seemed quite dangerous, Kento Watanabe could not understand the stakes behind these words.
