There is something wrong with my dating simulator

It adds a bit of gangster vibe to the already cute puppet.

"Remember, your name is Nyango Star now. You are an apple with cat ears, and your best skill is playing drums."

“Isn’t the setting too random?”

Shibasaki Manye, who was wearing a puppet costume, spoke in a muffled voice. Her expression could not be seen, and she seemed a little crazy.

Each of them walked into the office with a puppet and saw several other guys wearing puppet costumes.

Should be a contender in this line.

Lin Yuanshan was thinking about whether to have sex with a few girls in the toilet, but he was pinched on the waist.

"Will I have to play drums in front of others later?"

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you were best at the drums?"

"But I haven't played a musical instrument for a long time, so I might not be able to perform well later..."

"I really can't do anything with you. Just follow my instructions later."

After waiting for a while in the waiting area outside the interview, their names were called.

First, Lin Yuanshan brought in Shibasaki Manye, who was wearing a puppet costume, and introduced the mascot plan.

"No matter this or that, they don't have any special features."

“What we want is… a mascot character that impacts people like Kumamon!”

Because the setting was too casual, Lin Yuanshan and Shibasaki Manye were soon questioned.

However, Lin Yuanshan just said:

"Everyone, our image presentation is not over yet. I contacted you earlier to prepare the band's instruments. Please wait for a moment."

After saying that, he pulled the somewhat confused Shibasaki Manye out of the interview room.

"I was originally planning to see you show off your skills, but now I have to take over first. You can find a place to hide later, and I will switch with you when I am done."

five minutes later.

"Eh? Where's Mr. Lin? We invited you here because he's a famous voice actor."

This is what the local tourism industry leader said.

The mascot named Nyango Star simply used sign language to indicate: He went to the toilet, can the show start?

The person in charge sighed and signaled Nyango Star to hurry up and perform so as not to delay the next group.

Nyango Star shook his cat ears, moved the drum set from the backstage equipment room and assembled it.

Afterwards, he played the legendary song "Red" by the neon legendary visual kei band X-japan on his mobile phone before taking his seat.

The intro is a bit mediocre, just at the level of a master taiko drummer.

But when the song was approaching its climax, Lin Yuanshan's drum beats began to speed up gradually, and the continuous rolling combination was poured out like water.

The loose leather doll cover also began to sound weird with the increasingly frantic drum beats. Even the local tourism leaders who knew nothing about band performances were shocked.

He also began to sit up straight.

“Actually I don’t really understand, but if it’s just about playing drums, it doesn’t seem that attractive, right?”

Hearing this, Lin Yuanshan curled his lips under the leather case, then hit the drumstick hard, and then quickly picked up the bass next to him.

With his level, even wearing a leather suit, he still gave a high-level instrumental performance in coordination with the music.

But the tour leaders were complete outsiders. Wild boars cannot eat fine bran, so they had no idea how difficult it was to play the bass in a leather suit. They just shook their heads and said:

"It seems... it seems to lack a bit of impact?"

That being the case!

Lin Yuanshan began to perform a head-shaking windmill that was more of a gimmick than reality, where the action of plucking the strings with his right hand was changed to swinging his arms in circles (similar to the turtle punch), and the head in the leather suit was swung as if it were long hair.

The whole scene was even more bizarre than it had seemed just now.

"I always feel like... it's still a little lacking in flavor, and it lacks soul."

No soul yet?

Then I can only use my best skills - teeth! bullet! guitar! him!

Through the puppet's leather case, Lin Yuanshan used his teeth instead of his hands to quickly pluck the strings up and down.

The puppet's face looks like a demon from hell because of the sunken teeth.

"So it's a demon from hell with cat ears... I thought it was an apple, how rude!"

Next to person in charge No. 1, No. 2 simply clapped his hands.

"This is so shocking! Even Hachiko will be far behind our Nyango Star!"

The person in charge, No. 3, who knew a little bit about pop music, also nodded and said:

"I thought Nyango Star was playing the Beatles, but it turned out to be death metal! That's really rare!"

After saying this, the three of them stood up at the same time, looked at each other and said:

"That's enough, Nyango Star. The future of Aomori Prefecture is in your hands, sir!"

......

When Shibasaki Manye changed back into the leather suit, she felt that the three leaders looked at her in a somewhat... fanatical way?

She whispered to Lin Yuanshan:

"You just played a drum, right? Why did their attitude change so drastically?"

Lin Yuanshan replied tiredly:

"That's about right. But you have to be prepared. I changed your image a little bit."

"Ah? What's changed?"

"Don't worry, it's just a little wilder than before."

Chapter 48: Do your employees have medical insurance?

Shibasaki Manyo still doesn't understand how Lin Yuanshan convinced iroha production, an entertainment company known for its ruthlessness, to open a branch in a small place like Aomori Prefecture.

Moreover, there are only two employees in the branch office, him and Shibasaki Manye, and they are responsible for their own profits and losses.

Isn't this equivalent to selling the company's brand to Lin Yuanshan for nothing?

Currently, the two rented the unused second floor of a screw factory as their office.

The main business of iroha production's Aomori Prefecture branch is the operation of the mascot project, Nyango Star.

"Well, tomorrow is Nyango Star's first show in Aomori Prefecture. Are you ready?"

"It's only a week, how can I make it in time!"

Just one week after the plan was finalized, the Aomori Prefecture local government is already preparing to update the local mascot.

Tomorrow's Nyango Star debut will also be a farewell to the original Aomori Prefecture mascot "Aoba Fairy".

Therefore, the two generations of mascots shake hands and say a few words symbolically (in mascot language).

"Anyway, we just need to find a way to fool the local kids."

These are the original words of the person in charge.

“So you don’t have to worry, there will be no instrumental performance tomorrow, only a simple exhibition and handshake meeting at a primary school in the county.

There will also be a primary school choir that won awards at the national conference singing nearby, so the scene won’t be too awkward.”

In fact, Lin Yuanshan never understood that Shibasaki Manye was just a character in a suit, and any voice actor could play the role.

I don't know what there is to resist.

"It's all your fault! What the hell is that with teeth playing guitar? I'll never be able to learn it in my lifetime!"

However, Shibasaki Manye was quite dissatisfied with the character that Lin Yuanshan had imposed on him.

How could an apple with cat ears turn into a demon from hell?

But even though there are many flaws, this is already the most prestigious job that Shibasaki Manye has ever gotten.

After all, it is possible for local idols to become popular like Kumamon.

[The next day, you took Shibasaki Manyo to Aomori Prefecture]

[The local teachers and students were very enthusiastic and surrounded Nyango Star played by Shibasaki Manye]

[Seeing how popular she is among the children, even Shibasaki Manyo, who was feeling unmotivated, was inspired]

[You came to the school gymnasium surrounded by children]

"Are you familiar with the Muppet's emergency devices?"

"Well, vibration, expansion, anti-wolf, emergency escape... After all, it's just a puppet, is it necessary to put so many weird things on it?"

"You don't understand. From now on, you are already a local idol. Anything can happen to you. It's better to be prepared."

Compared to a week ago, Lin Yuanshan added several reaction modules to the Nyango Star puppet, including a business function that allows the entire body to swell and shake to match the sound to be cute.

There is also an emergency opening function to prevent people from suffocating inside.

The entire mascot, both in terms of material and size, is several points better than the original one.

"I can understand everything else, but you still refuse to tell me the principle of this anti-wolf device. What's going on?"

"If it is useful, you will know it naturally. Don't touch it at other times."

Equipping the mascot's leather suit with anti-wolf equipment was his experience after the Izumi Sagiri incident.

As for idols, naturally they are bound to have stalkers.

The anti-wolf device that Lin Yuanshan prepared for Shibasaki Manye can be said to be an upgraded version of the traditional anti-wolf spray, the kind that even three or five big men can't get close to.

After entering the county school gymnasium, the two did not continue their discussion on the holster issue.

There were already several rows of students standing on the stage of the gymnasium. When they came in,

The chorus then began.

The chorus of these little devils was Mozart's "The Devil".

And it's in German.

"What's wrong with this group of people? Isn't this kind of song inappropriate for the handover between the old and new mascots?"

In response to Shibasaki Manye's questions, Lin Yuanshan just smiled and pushed her onto the stage.

"Don't worry, the national competition is very cruel. Only songs with high technical standards and sung in foreign languages ​​can win prizes. Come on, the Aoba Elf is waiting for you."

Although Lin Yuanshan said so, the melody of "Devil" as a symphony piece is still too dark.

In addition, Shibasaki Manye hadn't performed in front of so many people for a long time, and was a little nervous for a moment.

Even her steps were shaky.

However, the person in the middle of the Aoba Elf opposite seemed to be a careful and gentle senior.

Faced with Shibasaki Manye who was walking unsteadily, the Aoba Elf took the initiative to step forward and led her to the stage by holding her hand.

Such a harmonious scene drew applause from the primary school students.

Shibasaki Manye, who was inside the suit, was also preparing to make some response.

The "inflated cuteness" that Lin Yuanshan prepared for her came in handy.

Now that I think about it, the function of the leather case he prepared for himself is quite reliable, although the technical ability accounts for a small proportion,

At best, it's a cordless hair dryer, but it's surprisingly "stage-friendly".

In this way, facing the gentle senior "Aoba Elf" who always smiles, and the children in the audience who are full of hope for love and dreams,

Shibasaki Manye pressed the device button amid the chorus of "The Devil".

Only after she finished pressing it did she react.

Wrong button!
