Tokyo Bubble Life

On the bustling streets of Shinjuku, Nagayama Kaede is standing in front of the new facade.

Compared with the KTV in Roppongi, this new store looks more low-key, but the signboard at the door and the store name on the wall are obvious enough.

“Melody KTV (Shinjuku Branch).” After reading this name, this guy who looked more like a thug than a boss showed a happy smile on his face.

 Since it is an office building renovation, the decoration process of the new store is very fast and it can be opened soon.

 After walking into the lobby, the overall black decoration style is full of exquisite decorations in every detail, allowing people to see the luxury and intention hidden in the low-key appearance.

 Many busy waiters are making preparations for the opening, and Nakazawa Beidou, who already has experience, will become the foreman of this KTV.

"Brother Feng, all the preparations that need to be made have been completed." Nakazawa Beidou saw Yongshan Feng coming in and said to him.

“Have the equipment been tested?” Although they had been tested during the acceptance, Yongshan Feng asked them to test it again today.

“Hi, we have retested everything.” Nakazawa Beidou nodded.

“The drinks are all in place?”

 “Hi, everything is ready.”

ˆ “.”

 Yongshan Feng, who used to be a carefree man, already had experience in running two stores, but now he has become verbose, asking questions about everything no matter how big or small it is.

This new store opening, he specifically told Naoki Nagayama that he would experience it from head to toe. On the one hand, he wanted to exercise his abilities and prepare for future branches. On the other hand, he didn't want to rely on his cousin for everything.

  Naoki Nagayama also has a lot of things to do, and he also wants to make money!

 Until a voice came from behind: "Fengjun~"

 Ishida Shinkai walked in from the outside. As the chief designer of this KTV, Yongshan Kaede specially invited her to experience it when it opened.

 “Xinhai-chan!” A bright smile appeared on Yongshan Feng’s face, “There’s no traffic jam on the road, right?”

"Hi, we arrived very smoothly." Ishida Xinhai responded easily, "Fengjun, is the opening time set for the afternoon?"

“Well, generally speaking, KTV customers start arriving in the afternoon.” Although Yongshan Feng’s first two stores are full of customers every day, there are many repeat customers. At the beginning, the number of customers who came in the morning was still scattered.

This is also because there were too few entertainment methods in this era. If it were in later generations, KTV would usually not open until evening.

“This KTV is not well-known yet. Will there be any guests?” Ishida Shinkai and Yongshan Kaede walked towards the box together.

“Dude, I have sent people to distribute flyers nearby, and invited many friends to let regular customers in Roppongi know the address of the new store.”

 Nagashan Kaede said as he led Ishida Shinkai towards the inside. When his sweetheart came, he naturally had to take him to the VIP box.

The remaining Nakazawa Beidou looked at the two people’s intimate backs and shook his head. He already understood that there might be a boss lady soon~

 Then he turned around and continued to check the preparation work of KTV.

At the same time, the filming team of "Musicstation" has also arrived at Akina's hometown.

Tamori looked at this small building and said with great sigh:

“This is where Akina-chan grew up~”

“Hi, we six brothers and sisters grew up here!” Akina Nakamori didn’t look inferior, but said happily, “There are nine houses in our family. Although they are not very big, they are well organized!”

 After opening the door, the house was indeed empty. Nakamori Akina put Misora ​​Hibari's signed record on the table in the living room and said to Tamori:

“My mother really likes Misora ​​Hibari-san. So she brought back a signed record this time~”

  After briefly explaining the layout of the room to the camera, the camera crew prepared to leave. After all, there was no one at home and there was nothing to shoot.

 Due to the small space, it was a bit crowded after the host and several camera crews entered. Naoki Nagayama was waiting outside the door. While casually looking at the scene outside, I suddenly heard a somewhat unfamiliar call coming from my ears:

 “Naoki-san?!”

Turning around, I saw that it was Akina's younger sister, Akiho Nakamori, and there were two girls next to her who were also wearing school uniforms.

 “Akiho-chan?” Naoki Nagayama looked at her in surprise.

“Did Naoki-san come here today?” Nakamori Akiho and the other three were obviously very excited after seeing Nagayama Naoki. “Didn’t you say it was just my sister’s interview?”

"Ah, I am one of the planners of the show, so I came to confirm the situation." After Naoki Nagayama explained, he asked curiously, "Didn't it mean that Hoi-chan was in school today? How could it be?"

  Kiyose’s high school is still quite far away from Nakamori’s house, so you need to take a train there.

"I skipped class!" Nakamori Akiho showed a proud smile on his face, and then looked at his friends on the left and right: "Because the afternoon class is very boring. And there is a reason!"

 “Um, this shooting?” Naoki Nagayama thought for a moment.

"Hi!"

Everyone in the school knows that she is the younger sister of the idol star Nakamori Akina. Nakamori Akiho naturally has a lot of conveniences at school, so it is not a problem to skip class for the reason of cooperating with the recording of the program, and she can even bring two best friends with her!

ˆ “.”

Nagayama Naoki looked at Nakamori Akiho, who had no panic or other emotions on his face, and sighed. High school students of this age are too courageous. If they continue like this, they might become delinquent!

At this moment, Nakamori Akina walked out of the house. When she saw Nakamori Akiho, she was also surprised at first:

“Akiho? Aren’t you in class?”

After seeing the footage from the back, Akiho Nakamori straightened up her appearance: "Aren't you going to record the show? That's why I came all the way!"

Nakamori Akina frowned and said in an unhappy tone: "Akiho, you are a high school student. You will be taking the college entrance examination next year. How can you skip class?!"

However, this sister didn’t pay attention at all. Instead, she said with a little expectation:

“Didn’t Akina not finish high school? Maybe I can become an idol too~”

"you!"

Akina Nakamori is an idol herself, so she understands the hardships of the idol industry very well. She doesn’t want her family to jump into the entertainment world.

What's more, my younger sister has no talent at all. She only has the selling point of being Nakamori Akina's younger sister.

But at this time, the camera slowly moved outdoors. Nakamori Akina didn't want to argue with her sister in front of the camera, so she could only introduce to the confused Tamori:

“This is my sister, Akiho Nakamori. She happened to be back~”

 “So that’s it, what a coincidence!”

Although Tamori had some doubts in her heart, since Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori did not stop, the recording of the program would naturally continue.

“Then, Nakamori Akiho-san, can you briefly accept an interview?”

 “Hi!” A smile appeared on Nakamori Akiho’s face, “No problem at all!”

“So, first introduce yourself~” Tamori guided, “What is your relationship with Akina Nakamori?”

“My name is Nakamori Akiho, and I am Nakamori Akina’s sister. The person standing next to me is.”

Akina Nakamori walked outside the camera, and together with Naoki Nagayama watched Akiho Nakamori introduce herself and her two best friends in front of the camera, and then tried her best to show her best side.

“Alas~~” Akina Nakamori sighed and said to Naoki Nagayama, “Since I debuted, Akiho has always wanted to become a star and often participates in auditions.”

"It's inevitable to see your sister become a household name and show off her grace on the TV screen~" Nagayama Naoki comforted her, "Akina also decided to participate in "A Star! Is Born" after seeing the idol on TV. !》?”

"But...it's too hard to be in this business. The water in the entertainment industry is too deep for Akiho to grasp!" Nakamori Akina frowned, very worried about her sister.

Nagayama Naoki reached out and rubbed her eyebrows, smoothing the frown:

　　　 "Akina. Akiho is about to turn 18, and that's her life.

If she wants to enter the entertainment industry, Akina can only give her the most sincere lessons and help within her ability. "

“But Akiho, she’s not suitable.” Nakamori Akina was a little anxious. After all, she and Akiho grew up together. It’s normal for sisters to bump into each other, but they also have deep feelings.

Nagayama Naoki has no intention of destroying the sisterly relationship between the two:

“There’s no need to worry, Akina. Don’t you have Aunt Chieko with you?”

"That's right!" Nakamori Akina reacted. She also had a trick like snitching, "You must talk to your mother! You actually skipped class and I didn't even skip class!"

“.” Looking at his girlfriend’s hateful expression, Naoki Nagayama wisely stopped talking.

Tamori’s hosting skills are very strong. In just a few words, she was able to figure out the personalities of Nakamori Akiho and her two best friends. The entire interview process was also very relaxed and interesting. She talked about Akina’s impression among her family and neighbors since she was a child.

 At the end of the interview, Akiho Nakamori was still a little reluctant:

“Angna, won’t you stay at home for a little longer? There are still many photos to see at home~”

Nakamori Akina said: "No need~ Time is very tight, we have to hurry up and get to the next scene."

With that said, he took the lead and walked out, and several members of the film crew quickly followed.

Nagayama Naoki shook his hand at Nakamori Akiho and was about to leave when he heard Nakamori Akiho’s question:

“Naoki-san, are you really dating Akina? Will you get married?”

Seeing that the two people next to Mingsui were looking at this side, Nagayama Naoki knew that this was what the two best friends wanted to ask, so he gave an affirmative answer:

“Hi, Akina and I are currently in a serious relationship. Maybe Akina will call me brother-in-law in the future.”

 “Huh?!” The two best friends covered their mouths in excitement.

 After saying that, Naoki Nagayama followed him coolly, leaving Akiho Nakamori feeling a little unhappy.

 This sister of my own has suddenly become so distant for some reason in the past two years.

  Having become very famous again, and having such an excellent boyfriend.

 Why do I still have to hang around in an ordinary high school?

  Under an office building in Shinjuku, a new nightclub opened quietly.

 Apart from some flower baskets at the door, there seemed to be no other signs indicating that today was the opening date. However, in the afternoon, customers could be seen walking in from the simple front door from time to time.

Zhongzao Beidou stood in the lobby, watching the waiters receiving guests in an orderly manner, and nodded with satisfaction. These people had all been interns at the previous two KTVs for a while, and were now familiar with them.

 Among the guests who came, many were introduced by other guests, and there were also some friends that Nagayama Kaede met in the entertainment industry. It had only been open for two hours, and the private room was almost half full.

At this moment, some arrogant people walked in at the door, and you could see a lot of tattoos on their necks.

Nakazawa Beidou frowned. A troublesome person has come to the door. He pulled one of the waiters and said:

“Go and notify Brother Feng to come over. Then let Hamazaki Shogo and the other brothers behind you get ready.”

"Hi!"

The waiter hurriedly ran to the back, while Nakazawa Beidou faced the gangster who was entangled with the lady at the front desk.

"Private Marseille, I am the foreman here." Nakazawa Beidou said with a smile on his face, "Is there anything you can do for the guests?"

"You are the foreman!" The guy who seemed to be the leader looked at it, "We are just curious. A nightclub suddenly opened here. Didn't anyone tell us about it?"

If only we had known, we could have brought our brothers over to celebrate the opening! "

“Private Marseille, we are engaged in a legitimate business. We have already registered for opening at the government office and the police station, so we have no contact with the Sumiyoshi Association.”

Although the Yamaguchi-gumi is behind Melody KTV, it must be a legitimate industry. This is what Naoki Nagayama told the people of the Nagayama-gumi at the beginning.

　　"Oumai! We've already opened a nightclub, so don't pretend you don't understand!" The gangster was very angry when he heard this. "If you open a shop on this street, you must get our consent!"

"Sir, is this not mentioned in the law?" Nakazawa Beidou said, "How about you show me the specific regulations?"

　　“Damn it! You’re kidding me, aren’t you?!”

The gangster became furious and immediately grabbed a vase at the front desk and lifted it into the air, intending to throw it to the ground and get mad.

But suddenly, his wrist was grabbed by a powerful hand

"This vase is very expensive!" A voice came from behind, no, from the head, and a shadow seemed to cover it, "Xinhai-chan specially selected it!"

 “You, you guy.”

The gangster was easily removed from the vase in his hand, and then pushed to the side of several brothers who were traveling with him. Only then did he see the person who caught him clearly.

The body is very strong, with a strong back and a strong back, but the facial features on his face are regular and not too vicious. I saw him putting the vase away, then looking back at his group of people with a frown.

“What’s going on with Misaka Takahiro? Didn’t he tell the surrounding Yakuza groups? Why didn’t Sumiyoshi know about it?”

The gangster thought he was talking to him, but at this time he became arrogant again:

“Haha, it seems you know our Sumiyoshikai! Let me tell you, if you don’t kneel down and apologize immediately, I will definitely bring more people to teach you a lesson! Don’t even think about opening this shabby shop!”

However, at this time, he heard the voices coming from behind several of his own people:

“Maybe it was only communicated to the upper levels, and these low-level gangsters don’t know it yet!”

　　Subconsciously, I turned my head, only to find that I was surrounded by four or five strong men. Those guys had strong muscles and the suits were almost bursting!

"You guys" the gangster swallowed, and when he saw a few people looking at him with ferocious looks, he quickly said, "Don't mess around! There are a lot of patrolling police in Shinjuku!"

ˆ “.”

Hamazaki Shogo shook his head, pushed him away, and stopped looking at this embarrassing little gangster.

He walked to the front and faced Yongshan Feng and said: "Boss Feng, it seems that they are just the lowest-level juniors."

Yongshan Feng frowned:

“Even if this is the case, it is because Takahiro Misaka has no intention. Ever since he failed in Kobe, he has been disobeying the headquarters’ orders.”

“However, there is nothing we can do if he does this.” Hamasaki Shogo said, “In the future, our branches in Tokyo will still have to rely on him to dispatch other yakuza.”

“It’s not about relying on him, but on the East Asia Club!” Kaede Nagayama said, “My grandfather has already told me that after the naming ceremony, the fourth generation will definitely take action against Takahiro Misaka!”

 “That’s it~~~”

After a brief exchange of words, Yongshan Feng walked up to the gangster, stared into his eyes and said:

 “He’s from Sumiyoshi-kai, right?”

"Hey!" The gangster was a little frightened, but he still replied with a stern tone, "We are Sumiyoshi-kai!"

"Well, that's good. Go back and tell your boss that this KTV is owned by the Yamaguchi-gumi!" Nagayama Kaede said, "We will not give protection fees or commissions to other Yakuza groups! If the Sumiyoshi-kai wants to start a war with the Yamaguchi-gumi, then find Let’s go to Takahiro Misaka, the director of the Chinese team of the Asian Games!”

"???Yamaguchi-gumi?"

"Um!"

Hongshan Kaede gestured to the elders from the club who came with Hamasaki Shogo and asked them to throw these gangsters out.

“Although I have the attitude of the Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters, when I open branches in other cities, I will encounter many difficulties.”

  Nagayama Kaede remembered that when Harajuku KTV opened, hundreds of police officers had a confrontation with the Yakuza, and even broke up an Ishii meeting. But until now, there are still no open-minded people coming to bother them.

 Roppongi KTV was when I had a good relationship with Misaka Takahiro, and he also brought people there when it opened.

“Sure enough, before opening the business, we still need to invite some important people to take charge. But we are a formal industry after all, and we cannot all be extreme guys.”

 Then I remembered the shareholders of KTV, the Ono family.

“We can’t let them get the shares for free. There is no such thing as a free lunch!

 The next time a branch opens, let Hisahiko Ono invite a few big names from the White House as guests! You can also ask some media to report on it and make Melody KTV famous! "

Yong Shanfeng thought about it and raised the corners of his mouth slightly~
