I became a girl group idol for my sister

Watanabe Hikaru seemed the most comfortable. She blinked her eyes and looked very happy.

As expected of you, Nana-chan, you were actually shortlisted this time. I was not mistaken!

Naoki Sakurako thought silently and couldn't help but clench her fists.

But I won’t give up!

Sakagami Minamiya clenched his fists, then a smile appeared on his face.

Nanaqin is really amazing. He was shortlisted in no time, and this even when the number of people increased so much.

……

"Nana-chan! You're in!"

"Nana, hurry up and get up!"

He heard the voices of Nagaan Miyu and Komatsu Mika, and he subconsciously held their hands, then stood up the moment they let go.

He turned around and bowed, then stepped out and walked towards the stage.

At this moment, he only felt that his steps were filled with unknown power.

He took the trophy handed to him by the staff and held it in his hand. There was his name and the word 39th on it. He took a deep breath and opened his mouth.

"I had originally thought that I would let you see me standing on the podium to receive the award next year, but I didn't expect that this wish would come true this year. The moment my name was called, I even felt like I was dreaming.

“But when I heard everyone’s calls, I finally confirmed that I was not dreaming.

"This 39th place is a reflection of everyone's support for me and the love that my fans have for me!"

Miyamoto Se was still smiling while speaking, even though her heart was beating wildly at this moment. She turned around and glanced at the seats behind her. There were more than forty seats arranged like this. The seat at the highest position had a different shape. It was a throne!

“But this is not the end. Next year, I will definitely reach a higher position, for example, directly aiming for the selection group!”

After saying this, Miyamoto Sei bowed again to the fans in the audience.

“Finally, thank you all for your support again!”

All of a sudden, the fans in the audience became even more excited.

"Hahaha, you're really bold. You actually said that you will enter the selection group next time."

"This is declaring war on our seniors!"

"He usually looks very gentle, but I didn't expect he has such a fierce side!"

"Sure enough, Miyamoto Nana is also a very ambitious person, but she just doesn't show it normally."

Sitting in the seat, leaning against Ichikawa Orihime, Ichikawa Orihime smiled and whispered to Miyamoto Se: "Congratulations, Nana-chan."

"Congratulations to you too, Orihime-chan." Miyamoto Se said, and asked quietly: "Who else do you think can be selected from Team 4?"

"I don't know, but I think both Haruka and Mimi have a chance, but Mimi has a better chance. As for Haruka, I didn't see her name when I reported her, but I didn't see her name when I reported her and you either."

Breaking news means announcing the vote count on a day in the middle of the vote counting process to let fans know the current situation of their favorite idols.

Of course, it is hard to predict what the final ranking will be. After all, sometimes the quick report is not good, so there are fans who vote for their idols crazily before the deadline.

"No. 5020, final votes , SKR Team K, Matsui Sakiko!"

"5220th place, final votes , SKR Team S..."

"No. 36..."

"5411th place, final votes 4, SKR Team , Okawa Mimi!"

Finally, the companions who usually trained and performed together appeared again. Just as Ichikawa Orihime had guessed, Okawa Mimi was also successfully shortlisted.

And it’s ranked 35th!

This girl, who usually loves variety shows and is very good at making fun of others, now looks like she is about to cry.

However, the protagonists today are not them, but others.

……

"The top ten are announced below!"

"36929th place, final votes , SKG Team S II, Matsuda Reina!"

"Ninth place, final votes 45227, SKR Team S, Tsukikawa Ayaka!"

"Eighth place, final votes 50403, SKR Team K, Ito Tomomi!"

When Miyamoto Seo heard the ranking and looked at the crying Ito Tomomi, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

He remembered that in the second general election, Ito Tomomi ranked fourth with 13474 votes, but today, although the number of votes increased several times, her ranking dropped to eighth.

But no matter what, what we are really afraid of is not being selected, or even falling out of the selection group.

"Seventh place, final votes 52790, SKR Team S, Sakagami Minami!"

Miyamoto Se looked at Sakagami Minami and saw that although she had tears on her face, she still stood up with a smile. She happily bowed to the fans, waved, and walked onto the stage with a little dance.

After seeing this scene, Miyamoto Seo was certain that there was no need to worry too much about his senior Sakagami Minami.

"I have another dream this year. I said it last year at this occasion. I love SKR as much as anyone else. When I think about what I can do for SKR, I hope that I can realize my dream in SKR, and my friends will continue to grow in the future..."

Tears began to flow again. Sakagami Minami could no longer control her tear glands and tears dripped down her cheeks.

“Or the companions who will leave in the future.

"I want to be your companion, the closest person to you, and always protect you all!

"Then, hard work will definitely pay off, and I, Sakagami Minami, will use my life to prove this!

"Please continue to support me, Sakagami Minami, and this family. Thank you very much!"

"The above is a very outstanding thank-you speech for Sakagami Minami, who came in seventh. To the members, you are the Southern Cross that guides the way!" The host said the comments given by Tenbelisha.

Upon hearing this, Sakagami Minami, who was originally talking to his companion in the front seat, immediately put on a serious expression and slowly raised his right hand. This action made the whole audience laugh again.

"Sixth place, final votes 52920, SKR Team S, Asuka Rina!"

The sobbing Asuka Rina seemed very weak. She gently grasped the microphone and spoke in a nasal voice.

"I am really grateful to everyone who voted for me. I was also full of anxiety during this year's election, but I received a lot of encouragement from fans, which made me feel at ease. How should I put it... Although everyone told me to be at ease, I have been preparing a speech for the 10th place ranking this year, so now my mind is blank and I don't know what to say."

Miyamoto Sei couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. Asuka Rina's preliminary score was tenth place, and she seemed to be a bit indifferent in normal times and wasn't very good at mobilizing fans to vote, so she was so nervous.

The comments about Rina Asuka are unexpectedly poetic.

“The plum rain sky tells an unfinished story, a message of spring.”

Hearing this comment, Miyamoto Sei couldn't help but admire Amagami Risa. Not only was she good at writing lyrics, but she didn't expect that she was also good at writing "Mogamigawa".

"Fifth place, final votes 59118, SKR Team R, Watanabe Hikaru!"

Watanabe Hikaru stood up and smiled. She looked like she was not under much pressure. She turned around and bowed to her fans, then carefully opened her arms and walked onto the stage as if she was spreading her wings.

"Hi, good evening everyone. I'm Hikaru Watanabe from SKR Team R. Thank you so much to everyone who supported me in this general election!"

She said these words with a smile, and seemed very relaxed. It was not the kind of relaxation that came after being under pressure, but a feeling of being relaxed all the time.

"The voices of all the fans who have supported me all along have been very touching to my ears and touched my heartstrings. I am really full of gratitude. However, this ranking is just a simple number. This number cannot affect me. Next, I will also believe in myself and everyone, and continue on the path I have chosen.

"I believe in you all, and please believe in me too! Please continue to support Hikaru Watanabe. Thank you so much for this time!"

"Return to the chrysalis, and soon you will emerge as a butterfly."

Amidst Amber Lisa's comments, Hikaru Watanabe walked towards her seat. When she passed by Miyamoto Se, she made a scissors hand gesture and made a "yeah" sound.

"Fourth place, final votes 60539, SKR Team S, Kato Akiko!"

"Third place, final votes 74252, SKR Team R, Mai Yasunaga!"

As the third place finally came to an end, it was finally time for the most critical moment.

"Then once again, I have to trouble all the fans. This general election has become a social phenomenon and has been reported in the newspapers. It was indeed created by everyone and has become the focus of the times! Finally, only the second and first place are left. Please be sure to have a warm and caring heart for the two selected members. This is the basic etiquette of being a SKR fan!"

Under the stage, Higashikuze Ogiko lowered her head, looking extremely uneasy. Even the usually carefree Naoki Sakurako raised her head from where she was bowing, but one could see the worry on her face.

As the host said these words, applause broke out from the audience. Compared to the Tokushige Call during the first general election, no one shouted such words this time.

"Then let's start the presentation, second place!"

"The second place in this year's general election has a final number of votes that is four times that of last year, 4!" This caused an exclamation from the audience. This number was indeed surprising and had already opened up a huge gap with the following few places.

"SKR Team K, Naoki Sakurako!"

Perhaps because she finally found out the ranking, Naoki Sakurako smiled, stood up and bowed to her fans, while at this moment Azusa Ogi couldn't help but bend over and burst into tears. The result was already revealed at this moment, even though her name hadn't been called out yet.

"Please take a look at the final votes, which are four times more than last year. Congratulations to everyone who followed Naoki-san for spreading the love!"

“Congratulations, please say hello with confidence and pride!”

Amid the host's voice, Naoki Sakurako stood calmly on the stage and then spoke.

"Onlookers have also made various comments about this election. One person bought several tickets just to get the votes. Is this really a general election? Isn't election one person one vote? There are many such comments surrounding SKR, but for us, the number of votes expresses your love for us!"

When she said the last part, she couldn't help crying, even though she tried hard not to shed tears. The moment she finished speaking, the whole audience cheered again and applauded warmly.

"In this selection, although we didn't win the title again, we received votes of love from everyone. It is because we are loved by everyone that we can hold this kind of event on this big stage and in this big martial arts hall.

“Last year, I won first place and sang “Endless Replay” as the center. It is a very precious song to me.”

Tears, falling.

"Although the next single is ranked second, I will not be content with that. I will work harder to sing and dance!"

Smiling, he said the last sentence.

“Thank you for your love!”

As Amarisa Amagi commented on Naoki Sakurako, Miyamoto Seto couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Even if you already know the ending, you still can't help but feel nervous in this atmosphere.

"Ogiko-chan!"

"Ogiko-chan!"

The fans started shouting, still calling for Toushi Uehara, but unlike last time, this was the real Toushi Uehara Call, a cry of support for her.

Amid the fans' enthusiastic cheers, the host continued speaking.

"Then let us solemnly announce that the first place in the SKR 22nd Single Selection General Election is..."

Higashikuze Ogiko took several deep breaths, and the host also said the name that everyone was looking forward to.

"Final votes: 139892, SKR Team S, Higashikuze Ogiko!"

She stood up while crying, bowed to the left, right and front, then walked towards the stage.

"Azuma Ogiko has returned in the general election. She unfortunately lost the first place last year, but on the bright side, she spent the year thinking about what she can do. The symbol of SKR, Azuma Ogiko, has fully resurrected!"

Still crying, Higashikuze Ogiko bowed deeply to everyone again and stood in front of the microphone.

"Then let's present the trophy that symbolizes the top selection to the beautiful Higashikuze-san who won first place!"

"So regarding this unimaginable total number of votes, which is over 13 and close to 14, please be sure to express your feelings at this moment."

After several consecutive deep breaths, even though several minutes had passed, Tokuze Ogiko was still having difficulty breathing.

The pressure that had been building up over the past few days was finally released at this moment.

“Everyone, thank you so much. I have thought about a lot of things this year. I have been living like this day by day. Even though there are so many people supporting me, there are still days when I have to fight loneliness somewhere. But now I once again deeply feel that there are so many people supporting me and encouraging me!

"Of course, I know there are people who hate me, but I have only one request. Even if you hate me, please don't hate SKR!"

Miyamoto Se looked at Tokuze Ogiko with some surprise. He never expected the other party to say such a thing. He turned around as if he felt something, and then saw Naoki Sakurako standing on a high position at the back, looking at Tokuze Ogiko with a smile.

“In order to make everyone recognize me, I will work hard in my own way from now on!

"I am really grateful to everyone who has always cared about me warmly and supported me so much! Thank you!"

After listening to what Tokuze Ogiko said, Miyamoto finally understood something.

So, in fact, I have been doubting myself, wondering if I still have the ability and the qualification to be the first. It is because of the constant doubting of myself that I feel lonely and under such great pressure.

But at this moment, listening to the fans’ shouts, you should understand that the fans’ answer is, they are qualified!
