Among the crowd, Tie Shou was obviously very concerned about the situation over at Little Asuka, and looked up from time to time. She felt a little apologetic in her heart. If she had been calmer, she wouldn't have embarrassed Senior Asuka.

"Don't worry too much."

Wu Geng spoke to her. Maybe it was because of his appearance, but she had a good impression of this member named Tie Hande from the beginning.

"But……"

"Asuka has that kind of character, she will be fine after being depressed for a while."

"I'm sorry," Ping Shou lowered his head, "It's all because I was careless in what I said."

Wu Geng smiled, "I told you it doesn't matter."

Perhaps Wugeng's attitude was too friendly, and the previous tension in Ping Shou was slowly ironed out like wrinkles.

"Did something really happen between Wu Geng-senpai and Asuka-senpai? We were so good friends before, Asuka-senpai often mentioned you on the blog." Hirate blinked.

Wu Geng felt a little annoyed, but he still pretended not to care and said with a smile, "Maybe it has a prefix like 'hateful', right?"

"But if you really hate it, Senior Asuka wouldn't write it specifically on your blog."

Wu Geng pursed his lips and did not reply.

She knows, of course she knows.

Wu Geng turned his head and looked at Nishino, who was staying with Gao Shan and the others not far away.

But, what can I do if I know?

Changbin hit Hirate's waist with his elbow, "It's best to think carefully about what you say and do in the future. This is not the first time."

"I understand." Pingshou responded with his eyelids drooping.

"It's not like I said something wrong," Hashimoto said in relief, "it's the truth after all."

"Hashimoto-senpai feels the same way, right?"

Encountering an unexpected ally, Hirate's eyes suddenly lit up, "I just care, after all, it was my recommendation. Hashimoto-senpai, if the person you like behaves strangely, you will be interested and ask questions."

"..."

Hashimoto's smile was slightly stiff and he didn't reply.

Hirate scratched his head timidly, "Did...did I say the wrong thing again?"

——

"Really? It's been decided..."

In Konno's office, Fukagawa once again reiterated her idea of ​​graduation. Knowing that she still had no intention of giving up her idea, Konno could only accept it.

"It's just a pity," Konno said. "The development after Nogizaka will only get better and better. I know Fukawa that you don't aspire to be an idol. It's just that if Nogizaka becomes more famous, your path after graduation will be easier."

"Konano-san, your manager has already said this." Fukawa said with a smile.

"Of course I know that Nogizaka will get better and better in the future. Everyone worked hard and got over the difficulties of not having many resources in the early stage. It's just..."

She paused and seemed a little helpless, "Konano-san, I am 24 years old this year."

I believe that the four people present can understand what she didn't mean. After all, they are people who have worked hard in the entertainment industry. Frankly speaking, if Fukawa really plans to develop as an actor in the future, this age cannot be considered too early.

"Since you have decided it yourself, I have nothing to say." Konno sighed, "Have you told the other members about this?"

"Not yet. I plan to talk about it after the new year. Isn't there red and white this year? It's a goal that everyone has been striving for for a long time. I don't want to make everyone worried because of this."

"Then let's leave after fourteen singles. The members also need a buffer time, and so do the fans. Also," Konno glanced at Fukawa, "and you too."

Fukawa nodded.

"Don't make it so sad. Didn't I tell you that there is still a lot of time, so take your time." Konno faced Kitagawa, "I'm sorry, Kitagawa-san, for putting you in this situation right away."

"It's okay," Beichuan said with a smile, "It can be considered an early experience."

"By the way," Konno suddenly thought, "Do you have any plans you want to make before graduation, or any requirements? The operation side will try their best to satisfy you."

Fukawa pondered for a moment, "Graduation LIVE, I want to open it in Shizuoka, is that okay?"

"This is not a request." Konno smiled and nodded in agreement, "I will try to make it as grand as possible. Don't worry."

Fukawa bowed slightly.

"Sorry for your trouble."

——

"Then I'll go back first."

After exiting the office, Fukawa took a small breath.

She has been training at an entertainment school since junior high school. If she had not suffered from the lack of opportunities to enter the entertainment industry, and if she had been exposed to acting-related jobs from the beginning, she would not have participated in the Nogizaka audition.

Naturally, she did not regret this choice. However, after surviving the previous pioneering period, the sense of security of inertial driving gradually made her anxious.

Nogizaka gradually became her safe zone. When she jumped out of here, she would actually feel scared and worried. The dream of being an actor was also impacted bit by bit by spending time with the members day and night.

Hashimoto has no interest in the entertainment industry, Shiraishi is more interested in the bond between the members, and Eto just refuses to admit defeat and wants to prove himself. She is the only one who wanted to work as an actress before joining the group.

Fukawa didn't want to regret it later.

She didn't want to recall the time the two of them spent together with unfinished regrets in the future. She wanted to cherish her time in Nogizaka and cherish this memory.

So she has to move forward and do what she wants to do.

She still remembers Fukawa.

I remember that in that small double room, I told my companion about my ideals and persistence with firm eyes. The other party also responded to her with a smile.

"Then when Mai Mai really becomes a super famous actress, I might just go to you after graduation and let you support me."

"Okay. But don't just talk and don't do anything. It will make people look forward to it in vain."

"You are the one, Mai Mai. Don't pretend you don't know me when the time comes."

"No way, I'm absolutely happy that Nanamin can come. It doesn't matter how long you stay."

"Then it's settled."

"Well, I'll leave a special room for you when I arrive. It's just for Nanamin."

"Wow, I'm going to look forward to it."

Fukawa turned around and walked towards the other side of the corridor.

When passing by the window, I saw my slightly sad face reflected on the glass for a moment.
