Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

“Now I also have some fame…”

Toyohama and Hana didn't feel happy, but instead smiled self-deprecatingly.

Originally, when she walked on the street, even if she didn't deliberately conceal her appearance, no one would recognize her.

At most, they would take a few more glances because she was good-looking, but there was no so-called fame to speak of.

But now… she hasn't had any performances recently, but her fame has increased.

At least when walking on the street, she can be recognized by others.

It's just that Toyohama and Hana doesn't want this kind of fame built on gossip news and relying on her sister Sakurajima Mai.

She even resists it extremely.

Noticing the dim color in Toyohama and Hana's eyes, and listening to the other party's喃喃自语, Suzuhikohime, who was following her side with a paper umbrella, couldn't help but reveal a bit of heartache in her eyes, and slowly stretched out her hand to gently stroke the other party's head.

“Eh?”

Toyohama and Hana suddenly stopped, turned around and looked, with a look of doubt on her face.

“It seems… I feel my sister's aura?”

Hearing this, Suzuhikohime was shocked.

She did not choose to manifest, but maintained the state of the soul's true form that could not be “observed” by ordinary people, silently following Toyohama and Hana.

Logically speaking, if it cannot be “observed”, there will be no intersection.

Suzuhikohime's action of stroking Toyohama and Hana's head just now was only because she was Sakurajima Mai's true heart, out of sisterly love for her sister, and it was done subconsciously.

It was completely meaningless, and Toyohama and Hana shouldn't have been able to feel it.

But unexpectedly, Toyohama and Hana felt it, and even said Sakurajima Mai's name.

Is this… the connection of blood between sisters?

Or is it that… because of the adolescent syndrome of exchanging bodies, the current Toyohama and Hana already has some characteristics of a psychic, able to sense the existence of spiritual power?

… …

A few minutes later, Toyohama and Hana entered a coffee shop.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw the female manager in charge of her idol group, and a middle-aged man with a receding hairline and a big belly, sitting in the most corner position.

“Hana, here.”

Seeing the female manager beckoning to her, Toyohama and Hana first nodded, then took a deep breath, silently cheered herself up in her heart, and walked towards the table.

“You are Toyohama and Hana?”

As soon as Toyohama and Hana sat down, the middle-aged man looked her up and down, and said in a very impolite tone, as if he was commenting on the appearance of livestock,

“Well… in terms of appearance, it's not much different from your sister, but it's a pity that although they are sisters, the abilities of the two people are too far apart.

It's no wonder, after all, they are half-siblings.”

“Mr. Hino Daisuke.”

Hearing this, the female manager couldn't help but frown, her tone a little displeased.

“Please don't talk to my members like that, they are people, not pets you keep.”

“Hehe, what's the difference?”

The middle-aged man, called Hino Daisuke, sneered twice, completely disregarding the female manager's and Toyohama and Hana's disgusted eyes, and directly took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

“Toyohama and Hana, you should not have forgotten, your contract has a provision, right?”

Hino Daisuke first took a deep puff of the cigarette, then looked at the opposite female manager and Toyohama and Hana with contempt in his eyes, and spit out the smoke without any scruples.

“Cooperating with performances, daily practice, these are just a small part of your duties as a signed member of our company.

When necessary, accepting interviews, and even taking photo shoots, are also your obligations.

You have been given so long to consider, it's almost time.”

“If you are unwilling to listen to the company's arrangements and accept the interview, then you should pay the liquidated damages.”

“By the way, the price of liquidated damages is very expensive.”

Hearing this blatant threat, Toyohama and Hana couldn't help but bite her lip, a look of unwillingness appeared in her eyes.

The contract she signed with this brokerage company was indeed ridiculously high.

Of course, this was not agreed to by Toyohama and Hana herself, the whole process was arranged by her mother.

Her mother, out of wanting to compete with Sakurajima Mai's mother, to compare whose daughter was the more excellent one, had completely lost her composure at that time, only knowing that this brokerage company promised to give Toyohama and Hana the best resources and make her popular, and didn't notice the hidden trap clauses at all.

This is also a common thing in the entertainment industry.

Seeming to notice Toyohama and Hana's emotions, the female manager in a neat suit frowned and couldn't help but speak out.

“Mr. Hino, this is too…”

“Shut up.”

Hino Daisuke glared at the female manager fiercely, reprimanding her with a very bad attitude.

“Persuading her to accept the interview and hype up the group's popularity of what Sweet Bullet, is originally your job responsibility.

Now you can't complete your work, and I need to talk in person, what a waste, how can you be worthy of your salary?”

The female manager bit her lip, glanced at Toyohama and Hana beside her, and finally decided to continue to argue on principle.

“Mr. Hino, I think from the perspective of the future development of the group, the high popularity brought about by gossip news related to the members' families is not conducive to the future development of the few of them, and the idol group Sweet Bullet…”

Just as the female manager was thinking about how to refute, she suddenly heard a loud roar from the table next to her.

“To threaten a minor girl like this, this ugly face, you guy, you are really blinded by profit!”

Hino Daisuke turned his head and saw a burly middle-aged man standing there glaring at him.

Seeing the other party's broad shoulders and tall stature, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty, but for the sake of face, he still braced himself and retorted.

“You… where did you come from, our company's internal affairs, do you need you to take care of it!?”

“Hehe, seeing injustice on the road, draw your sword to help.”

The middle-aged man first snorted coldly, then said in a deep voice.

“If you do this in other cities, then that's it, but this is Kyoto City.”

“I, Aoki Takeshi, the chairman of the 'Masquerader' fan club, will never stand idly by and watch such a scum like you appear in this city guarded by the 'Masquerader', and do such ugly behavior!”

Chapter 463: The Duty as a Sister, the Collapsed Cram School Trip

“Chairman of the 'Masquerader' Fan Club?”

Hearing Aoki Takeshi's words, Hino Daisuke was about to say something, but the female manager on the side reminded him.

“Mr. Hino… there is indeed such a folk fan club, and its influence is not small, don't be impulsive.”

The female manager seemed to be persuading him kindly, but in fact, the meaning in this sentence was to let Hino Daisuke be more polite.

If he really offended this man who claimed to be the chairman of the “Masquerader” fan club, and the other party was really the chairman of the “Masquerader” fan club, then Mr. Hino, you would be finished.

Like Toyohama and Hana's contract terms, in fact, according to the strict meaning, many of the penalty clauses, such as liquidated damages, do not comply with the provisions of the law, and are completely deceiving and guiding underage idols to be beasts of burden for the company.

Not only this brokerage company, but most brokerage companies whose main business is idol group members have such dark hearts.

Find promising newcomers, sign very outrageous contracts, and then, after becoming famous, dismantle the group and sell them one by one to earn the price difference, unless it is the kind of top-tier group with explosive popularity that can avoid this kind of forced disbandment, being sold one by one like livestock with tags, but it won't last long.

Once they have no value, the company will not hesitate to abandon you.

"Mr. Hino."

At this moment, Toyohama and Kaka took the initiative to stand up, looked at Daisuke Hino sitting across the table, shook her head, and said firmly, word by word.

"Although I want to become a high-profile idol member, if it requires me to hurt others, especially my sister, then I will not hesitate to give up my dream, because... that is not the kind of idol I want to be."

"If you want me to pay the penalty for breach of contract, you can. As long as it is within the scope of the law, I will pay the price for my breach of contract."

"But now..."

Toyohama and Kaka suddenly slammed the table heavily, looked directly into Daisuke Hino's eyes, and said slowly.

"I reject your conditions, goodbye."

After saying that, Toyohama and Kaka nodded to the female manager, as a greeting, and then left the coffee shop directly.

The moment she stepped out of the door, she suddenly felt a sense of relief.

In a restaurant across the street, by the window, Mai Sakurajima saw Toyohama and Kaka leaving the coffee shop directly, and immediately looked at Yexing sitting opposite, and couldn't wait to ask.

"Quick, quick, tell me what Haka said? Does she still want to be an idol?"

"Are you really treating me as a human-shaped eavesdropping device?"

Although Yexing said so, he still repeated the conversation between Toyohama and Kaka and those people in the coffee shop just now.

"Eh? Mr. Aoki Takeshi? Isn't he the one..."

Mai Sakurajima is naturally very familiar with the name Aoki Takeshi.

A loyal supporter of "Mask", in the Sunny Doll Killer incident, he also donated all the income from selling "Mask" and related assistant figures to the families of the victims. Although Aoki Takeshi is not like Master Miyamoto, Noto Oda, and Granny Godmother, who can provide a lot of help to Chaoliang Society, and even does not know the true identity of "Mask", the members of Chaoliang Society still admire this middle-aged uncle's character.

And what happened just now has once again confirmed this point.

"Mr. Aoki... won't he get into any trouble because of this?"

Listening to Mai Sakurajima's worried words, Yexing just smiled indifferently.

"Don't be funny, Brother Aoki doesn't look like someone who lacks money. Besides, he is really the president of the fan club. How many supporters does 'Mask' have? Tens of thousands? Hundreds of thousands? Millions? I don't know the exact number, I only know that if Brother Aoki exposes this matter, the brokerage company to which Toyohama belongs will probably be surrounded by those 'Mask' supporters. That Daisuke Hino is indeed a disgusting person, but as long as he is not stupid, he will not go to Brother Aoki's trouble, and besides..."

Speaking of this, the smile on Yexing's face disappeared, his eyes passed through the glass window beside him, across a street, and landed on Daisuke Hino in the coffee shop opposite.

"Since Toyohama has already given the correct answer, it's up to us to deal with the next thing, isn't it?"

"Yes, it's up to us to deal with it."

Mai Sakurajima squinted her beautiful eyes slightly, looking at Daisuke Hino sitting in the coffee shop, his face already flushed with anger, and a clear anger flowed in her eyes.

She let Toyohama and Kaka handle it alone, just to see if her sister is mature enough now, and can still make choices that are not necessarily correct, but will never be regretted, when facing so much external pressure.

And when Toyohama and Kaka gave that answer, her firm attitude had already made Mai Sakurajima understand that her sister is now a mature person.

Really going to compensate for the penalty for breach of contract?

Don't be kidding, let alone the sky-high amount, whether it can be established in the lawsuit, even if Toyohama and Kaka negotiate with her mother who wants her daughter to become a dragon, Mai Sakurajima can also guess her mother's attitude, she will definitely be furious.

Of course, even so, Toyohama and Kaka's mind will not change.

But since she wants to become an idol, then not letting any external factors hinder her, this is what Mai Sakurajima believes she should do as her sister.

And, Mai Sakurajima also has this ability.

...

Later in the evening, Daisuke Hino, who was so angry that he left, had returned to the hotel he was staying in.

He planned to wait until tomorrow morning, after returning to the head office in Tokyo, to deal with this matter again.

"That hateful bitch..."

Thinking of the attitude of Toyohama and Kaka when talking to him, Daisuke Hino, who has always maintained a high-handed posture by PUAing the idol group members he signed, and occasionally even engages in unspoken rules, couldn't help clenching his fists and almost gritting his teeth.

His eyes were filled with twisted anger, and he gritted his teeth and muttered to himself.

"After I go back, I'll find a lawyer to scare her. At that time, a little girl her age will definitely be frightened and at a loss, and then..."

Thinking of the development after that, Daisuke Hino couldn't help but show a very wretched smile.

Although in his eyes, those girls who dream of becoming idols are just tools he uses to make profits, but if he can play with them a few times before selling them, then it is also considered a profit.

Just as Daisuke Hino was fantasizing, the door was suddenly knocked.

He stood up impatiently and walked to the door, originally thinking it was the room cleaning service, but when he opened the door, he found that there was a woman outside wearing a kimono, with long black straight hair, a cinnabar dot on her forehead, and a very ancient style of dress and temperament, with a very beautiful appearance.

"Are you Mr. Hino?"

Seeing such a beautiful woman standing at the door, Daisuke Hino, who was originally very lecherous, almost had his soul taken away, and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, I am Hino, may I ask who this lady is...?"

"It's you, then it's easy to handle."

After getting a definite answer, Daisuke Hino suddenly saw that the originally incomparably beautiful woman's pupils suddenly turned into terrifying vertical shapes, like a fox.

Before he could even let out a scream, Tamamo-mae's right hand five fingers extended five sharp nails, directly inserted into Daisuke Hino's abdomen, and at the same time, a pair of hands, although white and delicate, but like a cattail fan, directly covered Daisuke Hino's mouth from behind.

"No... no..."

The pain from his abdomen made Daisuke Hino's pupils dilate. He tried to break free, but he couldn't resist the power of that big hand. Even, the owner of that big hand seemed to be a little impatient, and directly twisted off his wrist with the other hand.

When the door was closed again, Hachishaku-sama looked at Daisuke Hino's feet and stretched out her hand without hesitation, directly crushing the bones of the other party's ankles.

Suddenly encountering such intense and unbearable pain, Daisuke Hino was already on the verge of coma.

"Humans... are really fragile."

Hearing the commentary of the Slit-Mouthed Woman, Hachishaku-sama nodded in agreement.

"Yes, for injuries of this level, we only need spiritual power to recover. I heard that humans also have a way of dying, called excessive blood loss? It is indeed too fragile."

"Don't make such dangerous remarks."
