Tokyo Agent: Starting with Picking Up a Problem Girl

Chapter 81 Sour

"Destined, unavoidable, the rekindled flame."

"Finally, I've arrived before you!"

Asuka: "..."

Stop watching!

Sure enough, without that atmosphere, it looks incredibly embarrassing no matter how you look at it!

"Nakajima..."

With a stiff smile, she tugged at Nakajima's sleeve: "How about we do something else, like eat..."

"Practice, any kind of practice is fine..."

"No."

Nakajima stared intently at the screen: "I need to know your stage presence well enough."

Hahaha……

What did I do on stage back then?!

Unbelievable, unbelievable.

The girl's performance in the video is undoubtedly captivating; if it were any unfamiliar character, Asuka's eyes would light up.

But if it were me...

Okay, that's so awkward.

For some reason, she desperately wanted to disappear into a crack in the ground.

But seeing Nakajima Hiroshi's serious expression, I was vaguely anticipating his evaluation...

"These……"

"These small moments of happiness."

"I even like weapons..."

"No, just like it, it's my favorite..."

Cough, cough...

Weapons and such...

I absolutely never want to sing this song again!

Even if I starve to death, I will jump off this cliff and never sing another word!

Waaaaah, Nakajima Hiroshi, let's go eat, okay...?

Watanabe Yukino is quite dedicated, just as Tachibana Misaki described.

Even amidst the frenzy of the event, they maintained a serious, audience-centric approach to filming.

In addition, Hiroshi Nakajima has several other sets of videos, which were recorded by more professional staff.

In addition, Mizuki Onodera preserved the noise reduction source for the stage, which is quite thoughtful.

Theoretically, a considerable amount of footage could be edited from Yukino's perspective as an audience member.

Such a successful disclosure should definitely be highlighted and criticized repeatedly...

No, it's about making full use of it.

"Thump—!"

The heavy drum falls.

Yukino deliberately left a segment of cheers from the audience.

There's plenty of material.

Once the club is up and running, we might as well get a big screen and play some clips on repeat.

Poor little Asuka has no idea what she's about to face...

"Nakajima..."

The girl was very nervous.

"A fantastic performance, and your on-the-spot improvisation was quite brilliant. Asuka, you did an excellent job."

Fortunately, Nakajima Hiroshi's answer relieved her.

There are actually many areas that could be improved, but this child has only been training for less than fifteen days, and the results are already a miracle.

However, the last sentence...

The pronunciation was very strange, clearly indicating that Asuka was singing off-key.

This issue must also be checked, otherwise it will become a hidden danger sooner or later.

Seemingly sensing the girl's mood, he changed the subject at the right time: "Asuka, let's go eat."

"By the way, pick up your new colleague."

The new colleague is naturally Watanabe Yukino, Misaki Tachibana's handpicked assistant.

Although the live streaming business hasn't started yet, there are still some commonalities between the two, so it wouldn't hurt to let her get familiar with the work in advance.

Moreover, Yukino has been busy with many things during the disclosure process, so from any perspective, she shouldn't refuse.

"Yukino-neechan!"

Asuka is clearly already quite familiar with her.

"Tomorrow Flower, you look great today."

Yukino's greeting sounded like she had just learned it from a book on etiquette.

She was friendly towards Asuka, but...

Ever since Nakajima Hiroshi appeared, a slight sense of loss and jealousy has crept back in.

As if by some strange twist of fate, Yukino blurted out, "Nakajima-kun, from now on I'll have to call you boss..."

Sour, sour...

Nakajima Hiroshi's heart skipped a beat.

After all, they met at a host club, and Yukino was one of his customers back then...

Sniff, sniff.

Asuka also sensed that something was wrong.

It wasn't so noticeable when she was mixed in with several women, but now that the three of them are together, the cheap perfume smell on Yukino is particularly strong.

It was the smell of Nakajima Hiroshi not returning home that night!

So, was it this woman who spent the night with him?

Misaki Tachibana, Yukino Watanabe, and Noriko, who radiates Buddha's light.

Thinking about it carefully, they're all the older type...

Nakajima, so you really like this type, don't you?

Oh, how awful.

I need to grow up as soon as possible.

I'll go back and drink milk powder, cheese, and bone-strengthening milk later!

The welcome banquet at Nakajima's office always seems to be very simple.

Asuka ate a small bowl of pork rice, while Yukino ate at a relatively clean set meal restaurant.

The term "teishokuya" means that these establishments typically offer only fixed set meals. Although the menu items may change, the freedom of choice is very limited.

He originally wanted to find a creative cuisine restaurant, which is like a small restaurant in our area where you can order relatively freely.

However, Yukino suggested, "Why waste that money? It's all just food anyway. Why not order a few more set meals at the diner so we can all eat together?"

With that, they changed their plans.

It also seems to carry a certain sense of anchoring identity.

I am the perfect wife of Nakajima Hiroshi!

...You yourself went to a male escort club and ordered overpriced peanuts.

So the three of them ordered seven set meals and several buckets of cheap drinks.

...It didn't cost much in total.

Of course, Nakajima Hiroshi was indeed short of money.

Although a lot of merchandise was sold, I wasn't out at the time; it was Onodera Mizuki who collected the money.

Since she took on so much, she must have spent a lot of money, and Nakajima didn't feel comfortable asking for it back.

Even that little income is not enough to cover the expenses of organizing the home games.

Maybe we should just forget about it...

With the added investment in customized merchandise, his finances are very tight.

"Oh, right, Nakajima."

Watanabe Yukino rummaged through her handbag and pulled out a debit card: "Mizuki asked me to give this to you, saying it's the income from Asuka's disclosure of her purpose."

"The card design is by Shigeru Yoshioka, and the password is written on this piece of paper..."

"Hey, Nakajima, did I make you any money?!"

Asuka got excited and urged, "Let's finish eating quickly and go see how much we earned!"

"Asuka, this is just a return on investment. The actual profit should be calculated after deducting Nakajima Hiroshi's investment."

Perhaps fearing that Nakajima would feel awkward explaining it, Yukino took the initiative to take on this responsibility.

To be fair, she was quite conscientious about her duties as an assistant.

...Does it also have a hint of vying for favor?

"Uh-huh!"

Asuka didn't understand at all: "Anyway, I can make money for you now, right!"

She was more concerned about the fact that she was starting to be useful to herself than about the specific accounts.

"Yes, you're already capable of handling things on your own."

Nakajima Hiro patted her little head, and then he saw...

Watanabe Yukino pouted at herself.

Although I didn't have a romantic relationship with any of them, what's with this subtle sense of immorality...?

But soon, this awkward feeling was replaced by reason.

There are many things to deal with right now, and the scope of responsibilities we bear is also expanding.

Misaki Tachibana's trust, Shigeru Yoshioka's investment, and the fact that Asuka and Yukino became his direct subordinates.

And, what about Onodera Mizuki...?

Entrusting Yukino to pass it on was undoubtedly a way of avoiding a polite refusal and wasting time arguing.

I owe someone another favor.

We need to transform these things into a stable business as soon as possible, so that everyone can truly become a community of shared interests.

Only in this way can the bond be stronger, can we live up to their choices, and can we protect those around us.

My responsibilities are very clear.

They promoted recruitment, expanded their team, and grew rapidly.

In addition, there's the issue of the pronunciation of "Asuka" (明日花), which we must figure out exactly what's going on.
