Chapter 1605: Photo incident (I bought a US card in autumn)

According to Sakurajima Mai, she found herself like this a few days ago. She went to the aquarium, but no one saw her. At that time, Sakurajima Mai thought she was just thinking too much, and maybe those people were just too focused on the aquarium, so they didn't notice her.

But when she left the aquarium and went to a nearby cafe to take a rest, the clerk inside turned a blind eye to her. Even if she spoke to the clerk, there was no response, and other customers did not notice her at all.

In the next few days, Sakurajima Mai kept looking for places where people could see her and where they couldn't, which was why she appeared here.

"So you're just walking around in bunny clothes?"

After listening to Sakurajima Mai's story, Duanmuhuai looked confused, while Sakurajima Mai glared at Duanmuhuai.

"Of course it's impossible. I stored my clothes in the locker at the station."

"It's really a strange phenomenon."

Duanmuhuai looked at Mai Sakurajima in front of him with a puzzled look on his face. The two of them were in a nearby coffee shop, but the clerk couldn't see Mai Sakurajima at all. At that time, Duanmuhuai asked for two cups of coffee, and the clerk was confused for a moment.

"To me, you are quite strange. Even though you are like this, no one pays attention to you."

Mai Sakurajima looked at Duanmu Huai and was equally surprised. Although Duanmu Huai was not wearing any bunny girl costume, her white hair and red eyes were very conspicuous, and Duanmu Huai did not dress like a thief like other artists. Logically speaking, even if Duanmu Huai is sitting in a coffee shop like this, someone will look at her.

But both the customers and the store staff turned a blind eye... From Mai Sakurajima's point of view, this was incomprehensible.

"As long as you reduce your sense of existence, reduce your aura to the level of a pebble on the roadside, others will not care about you. I am quite good at this."

Duanmuhuai took a sip of coffee and spoke at the same time.

"But then again, won't you have a headache like this? If you go to shoot, it will be troublesome if the staff can't see you."

"You don't know yet?"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, Sakurajima Mai showed a surprised expression.

"Know what?"

"I've stopped moving."

"Why?"

I have to say that Duanmuhuai was a little surprised when she heard what Sakurajima Mai said.

"You really don't know?"

"I don't care much about showbiz stuff."

"...Do you think you are an artist?"

I have to say that after hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Sakurajima Mai was speechless.

"So, what happened? After "Today's Sweetness", your reputation has increased a lot, hasn't it? Why do you suddenly want to stop your activities?"

Although Sakurajima Mai played a supporting role in "Today's Sweetness", she was quite popular. Duanmuhuai couldn't understand why she had become like this in less than half a year.

"...That's why."

Mai Sakurajima clenched her fists hard and lowered her head.

"???"

"As you said, after starring in "Today's Sweetness", my fame also increased a lot. Then my agent, my mother, in order to make me a big seller, she did not explain it to me. , he decided to ask me to take a photo album, and it was in a swimsuit!”

"...Wow."

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai had nothing to say except sighing.

Swimsuit photoshoot.

For Japanese artists, especially female artists, this is simply a killer move. The more famous a female artist is, the better her sales will be.

However, this does not mean that this method has no side effects.

Once a female artist takes a swimsuit photo shoot, the label of "selling flesh" will never come back to her.

Of course, if they are actresses who are famous for their large-scale, **** exposure, this photo shoot can be said to complement each other, so there is no problem.

But Sakurajima Mai is just a high school student! Moreover, she had previously filmed the innocent love story "Today's Sweetness", but now she has to do a swimsuit photo shoot?

To put it bluntly, this is no different from an innocent actress going to the sea.

In fact, in Berry PRO, Kurokawa Akane and Arima Kana will also take photo albums, but the photo albums they take are all very pure, wearing some kind of dress, or daily attire, sailor clothes and the like. As for swimsuits, they will never wear them, because they don't have that image. Taking swimsuit photos rashly is tantamount to completely overdrawing their reputation as artists.

For example, it's like the top prostitute in an ancient brothel who claims to be a prostitute but not a prostitute. If she keeps rejecting men's invitations, then everyone is willing to support her.

But once she keeps a man overnight, no one will treat her as a goddess anymore.

Therefore, for female artists, whether to take swimsuit photos is a very important decision.

Of course, if you are an ordinary broker, you can just focus on money. But Sakurajima Mai's agent is her mother. How can a mother sell her daughter so well?

"I originally thought it was just an ordinary photo shoot, but after entering the studio, they suddenly gave me a swimsuit, and there were only adults around... They said they had signed a contract. Although I didn't want to, they said it was work... I could only Accept your fate!"

Speaking of this, Mai Sakurajima clenched her fists angrily.

"In the end, that person only wanted to use me to make money!"

For Sakurajima Mai, the staff were not the object of her anger. What she hated was her mother. After all, the person closest to her stabbed her in turn. This feeling of betrayal must be uncomfortable.

"And you decided to stop your activities?"

"Yes, this matter obviously spread quickly on the Internet. Although the real situation is not stated, it is still a big rumor..."

"Oh, I only watch cat videos online."

Duanmuhuai said that he has no interest in these boring show business gossips. Watching cats act cute is more suitable for him.

"Anyway, that's it. Just because I stopped my activities, I had time to go to the aquarium to relax. As a result... I found out that it turned out like this." Mai Sakurajima silently picked up the coffee and took a sip.

"Perhaps I also have this thought deep in my heart. I don't want everyone to always look at me and pay attention to me, but ignore me and treat me as if I don't exist..."

"But it's also very troublesome."

Duanmuhuai stared at Sakurajima Mai.

"Indeed, others can't see me. Even if I shout in front of them, they can't hear me. They can't buy anything if I want to."

"Have you tried hitting them?"

"………Why?"

I have to say that Duanmuhuai's tricky question really stunned Mai Sakurajima.

"beat?"

"Yeah, since words alone are useless, what about physical contact? Just slap the other person in the face or something?"

"this………"

It has to be said that Duanmu Huai's jump was so fast that Mai Sakurajima's brain couldn't keep up for a while. However, Duanmu Huai didn't care. He glanced at the restaurant and pointed to the side.

"Just in time, there's a guy over there talking on the phone. Go up and slap him."

Mai Sakurajima looked in the direction of Duan Muhuai's finger, and saw in the corner of the restaurant not far away, a guy with colorfully dyed hair who looked like a delinquent, holding a mobile phone and shouting loudly. Although the clerk wanted to go up and try to dissuade him, he was so frightened that he could not speak.

"...Do you really want to go?"

"Just give it a try. There's no harm anyway. If something happens, I'll take care of him."

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he clenched his little fists.

"…………"

Mai Sakurajima hesitated for a moment, then she stood up, walked up to the delinquent young man who was blabbering, and stared at him. However, even though Sakurajima Mai had already walked in front of him, the young man still turned a blind eye and chatted loudly to himself with his cell phone.

Then, Mai Sakurajima raised her hand and slapped the bad boy hard!

"Crack!"

In Duanmu Huai's eyes, this slap was quite effective, and the bad young man indeed stopped. However……

"Wow, what's going on? Suddenly my face hurts a little."

As he spoke, the bad young man touched his cheek.

"Could it be that talking for too long caused muscle cramps?"

Then, the bad boy turned around and returned to his seat, while Sakurajima Mai looked at this scene and was speechless for a moment. Until Duanmu Huai came to her side and grabbed her hand.

"Okay, let's go."

Obviously, this hit Sakurajima Mai quite hard. After that, she just remained silent, walked straight to the station, changed back to her usual clothes, and then turned around and left.

"This is really..."

Watching Sakurajima Mai get on the train, Duanmu Huai also shook his head speechlessly. This was the first time he had seen this strange phenomenon.

But the news about Mai Sakurajima's photoshoot... I'll go back and ask others.

As for the person Duanmu Huai is looking for...

"Huh? You actually just found out about this?"

Arimagana's surprised voice came from the phone, almost jumping to the roof.

"Is it weird?"

"If it were anyone else, I would say it's weird, but for you and me, it's not weird at all."

"Because I haven't heard you talk about it either."

Duanmuhuai was very sure that Magana and Kurokawa Akane had never mentioned this topic in the office.

"After all, there's no point in gossiping about other people behind their backs. Besides, Mai Sakurajima is also very pitiful. Hey, it's not like I don't understand her feelings... To be honest, if I were to shoot something like that, I would I don’t want to show it to others! I might even wish I had never been born in this world!”

"Do you wish you had never been born...?"

"For example, for example."

Although Maganai said it was a metaphor, Duanmuhuai could somewhat understand Maganai's meaning.

After all, it was a swimsuit, and it was a swimsuit photo taken without her knowledge. It was not impossible to die or escape from the world.

Is it because of this that Mai Sakurajima had such a problem?

"Is that photo album on sale?"

"I'm not sure, but it seems like it hasn't happened yet. After all, it takes time to shoot, publish, and print photos... It should be just recently."

"OK, thanks."

Duanmuhuai hung up the phone, thought for a moment, then picked up the phone and made another call.

"It's me... Well, you know about Mai Sakurajima's swimsuit photo shoot, right? In the name of the company, I sent a lawyer's letter to the other party, saying that this kind of photo will be used for the filming of the second season of "Today Sweetness" If it causes a negative impact, we will ask them to stop selling it, otherwise we will file a claim against the other party for violating the contract and causing a negative impact on the crew. I would like to see how much money they have to compensate.”

Holding the phone, Duanmuhuai gave the order calmly.
