Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 1489 Chapter 1490. Shaken Girl

On the way back, Ayako was even more excited than Ayumi Hamasaki, talking about Matsuura Katsuto.

Matsuura Katsuto, a man who almost made Ayako sigh when they first met, captured Ayako's heart in a short time. For girls who are keen on pursuing the flashy world, it is a privilege to be treated kindly by someone whose status they need to look up to.

Matsuura Katsuto's target is Hamasaki Ayumi. Knowing this, Ayako doesn't care.

He even spontaneously became Matsuura Katsuto's lobbyist.

"Ayu-chan should have promised MAX-san." Ayako's regret was even more incomprehensible. If you get the appreciation of that MAX-san, you might be able to become a star and reach the sky in one step.

Hamasaki Ayumi, who was indifferent to this kind of opportunity presented to him, looked more like a weirdo in Ayako's eyes.

In the box just now, Katsuhito Matsuura encouraged Ayumi Hamasaki to sing a song. Amidst the cheers, someone unknown thrust a microphone into the girl's hand.

...That was completely incomparable to when Ayumi Hamasaki sang for Shinichi Iwahashi.

Ayumi Hamasaki didn't react at all to Ayako's words.

On Sunday night, Shinichi Iwahashi came back from a business trip. Akina Nakamori went to Los Angeles for a location shoot and had to return two days later. The only people who came to greet him at the entrance were two girls and Kenta Ichijo.

On days when Akina Nakamori was not at home, this situation suddenly seemed like she had lost her balance.

Shinichi Iwahashi's simple cooking skills were actually slightly better than Assistant Momoi's. Utada Hikaru looked at the perfectly shaped omelette and said in a deep tone: "Have Iwahashi-san lived alone for a long time?"

Iwahashi Shinichi had already left the two girls behind and went up to the second floor. Hamasaki looked at his back, feeling heavy and uncomfortable.

Utada Hikaru comforted him seriously: "It's okay."

Iwahashi Shinichi wanted to hang up his coat, but Hamasaki stretched out his hand to him. When the coat arrived in her hand, Iwahashi Shinichi handed the tie to Utada Hikari. The puppy Kenta, who was not assigned the task, bit his trouser legs unwillingly.

The more you say it, the more outrageous it becomes. Iwahashi Shinichi was choked and had nothing to say, so he buried his head in reading the newspaper. Utada Hikaru quickly finished his breakfast, put the plate into the sink, and ran back to the room.

Ayumi Hamasaki suddenly felt worried about gain and loss, as if he had been given up by Shinichi Iwahashi without knowing it.

Utada Hikaru nodded, "That's why I always helped Akina-chan. ... before Ayu-chan and I moved in."

Utada Hikaru avoided Iwahashi Shinichi's deeper questioning with a gentle and clever move. Is this out of support for her? However, in this way, Hamasaki Ayumi would not be able to talk about what he wanted to say.

"what?"

It was Utada Hikaru who answered, "I'm more used to it than last time when it was just me and Ayu at home."

Iwahashi Shinichi was helpless: "Does it mean that when you two move in, I will start to be lazy?"

That day at the disco, Matsuura Katsuto frivolously sent her an invitation to sing, which was like a deep shadow cast by her. Another person invited Hamasaki to sing, but it reminded her of the time she sang for Shinichi Iwahashi.

Akina Nakamori was not at home. In the morning, Shinichi Iwahashi walked into the kitchen to prepare breakfast for three people. Utada Hikari surrounded him to help, but Hamasaki Ayumi did not step forward.

……

Iwahashi-san, that president-san, no longer mentioned letting her sing.

"How have you two been at home these days?" Iwahashi Shinichi asked.

Hamasaki couldn't help but glance at this girl.

She always felt that this girl, who was a few years younger than herself, could see through everything.

In front of the dining table, only Iwahashi Shinichi and Hamasaki Ayumi were left. The girl looked at the newspaper and felt like a barrier was erected in front of her eyes, urging her to break it.

"Iwahashi-san."

Ayumi Hamasaki looked across the barrier and imagined the face of Shinichi Iwahashi behind him. "What's wrong?" Iwahashi Shinichi's tone was gentle and normal.

He has no ability to sense the changes in the girl's heart. Hamasaki said: "You don't even mention letting me sing anymore."

With a crash, the barrier fell.

In fact, it was not the barrier that fell, but the sound of Shinichi Iwahashi taking away the newspaper. He looked at Hamasaki and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of this?"

Hamasaki looked at him: "It's something you mentioned to me." It seems that if it weren't for Iwahashi Shinichi's words at that time, such a question would not have been left.

Iwahashi Shinichi's attitude was normal and he was not moved by her: "If I ask you to sing, will you sing?"

"...!!"

Hamasaki Ayumi was shocked and speechless. Iwahashi Shinichi's words may sound inhumane, but it is precisely out of respect for her ideas. From his attitude, Hamasaki gained a bitter freedom.

Iwahashi Shinichi noticed her abnormality at this time, but he didn't say anything and just looked at this troubled girl silently. During these days, the girl was restless, and Iwahashi Shinichi was also curious as to why she took the initiative to bring up singing.

However, Hamasaki could not tell Shinichi Iwahashi that another man proposed to her to sing. This was not because she wanted to hide her visit to the disco, but for other reasons.

In addition to Shinichi Iwahashi, there was a second person who wanted her to sing. But that's different. Matsuura Katsuto wanted her to sing for him, but Hamasaki came to Tokyo because he wanted to sing for Iwahashi Shinichi.

Hamasaki stood up and put his plate into the sink.

……

Utada Hikaru was too smart, and Hamasaki Ayumi was too preoccupied. Early in the morning, Iwahashi Shinichi made the two girls confused. They began to hope that Nakamori Akina would come home soon, so as not to be unable to defeat the four hands with two fists.

When I arrived at the company, I received another call from Tetsuya Komuro, inviting him to his party tonight. It's really hard for this romantic and talented man, who has a full schedule of various parties, can also produce music with high intensity, is full of energy, and is good at managing time.

In a sense, gifted.

However, since there are only two children in the family, Iwahashi Shinichi still has a word beforehand: "If I participate, I'm afraid I will be the first to leave Komuro-san's party."

Tetsuya Komuro joked: "If Iwahashi-san leaves the show, I will declare the party over."

"Then I have to say that everything tonight was a prank arranged by Komuro-san and I. We gathered everyone together just to tease you, and then we left as if nothing had happened." Iwahashi Shinichi did not spare him.

Tetsuya Komuro admitted defeat with a smile and changed his words; "It doesn't matter. It's enough that the important people have seen it."

The "important person" he was talking about was a girl named Tomomi Shimogawara.

In the evening, Shinichi Iwahashi went for an appointment, and was immediately introduced to this young and beautiful girl who exuded a hint of stupidity - young and beautiful, but one could tell at a glance that she would do whatever she wanted, all based on her mood.

This kind of girl can be very difficult.

Such thoughts flashed through Shinichi Iwahashi's mind, but he remained calm. After Tomomi Kawara greeted Tetsuya Komuro, he nodded slightly and replied: "I am Iwahashi."

Tetsuya Komuro intended to introduce Tomomi Shimokawara to Shinichi Iwahashi, and further considered letting her debut as a singer. In other words, it was precisely because he regarded her as the next rising star that he had to bring her to Shinichi Iwahashi.

You can guess that Iwahashi Shinichi is probably not interested in such a girl.

Tetsuya Komuro thought like this, and his mind flashed to Ayumi Hamasaki, whom he accidentally saw at a disco a few days ago, and Katsuto Matsuura, who seemed to have hit a treasure.

He smiled slightly and kept this matter in his heart, not intending to let Shinichi Iwahashi learn about it from him.
