...

The sound of roaring engines came from the distance, causing several people sitting at the front desk to look up.

While Naoki Nagayama was drinking ice-cold atomic soda while chatting with Takeharu Kawahara and Kokoro Onodera, Takao Ozaki finally returned with Shizuka Kudo.

Shizuka Kudo took off her helmet, her fair face was flushed with excitement, her small nose flapped rapidly in her rapid breathing, her chest was rising and falling like an airport, and it seemed that she could hear the pounding of her heartbeat.

"Naoki-san!"

Nagayama Naoki handed over a bottle of soda: "How is it? Are you very happy now?"

"Hi!" Kudo Shizuka's tone was cheerful, "Arigado!"

"It's okay, it's okay, just sing well later~" Nagayama Naoki nodded, "Go to the rest room upstairs to adjust, we will record the record later."

"Hi!"

Seeing the little girl walking up with cheerful steps, Nagayama Naoki also felt that there would be no problem with the record recording this time, so he notified Onodera Shinya to prepare.

Just when he was about to go up, a strong arm suddenly stretched out from the side and gave a "strong man lock", and then Ozaki Takao's voice came from the side:

"Naoki...don't you think you should explain something~~"

Nagayama Naoki said helplessly: "Takao... let go quickly... you are too short, it weighs heavily on my shoulders..."

"..." One sentence made Ozaki Takao break his defense, and he instantly strengthened his arm, "Baga, my height is 1.78, okay! Rounding it off, it's 1.8 meters! That's too short!"

To be honest, this height is pretty good in Neon~

"Hey, hey, neither short nor short..." Nagayama Naoki patted his arm to express surrender, "Let go first, and talk to him if you have anything to say!"

"snort!"

Ozaki Takao angrily let go of his hand, then sat on the stool at the front desk, and also grabbed a bottle of atomic soda and drank it as if to vent his anger.

"You guy, you were clearly tricking me before! That little girl... her name is Kudo Shizuka, right? She's obviously not in good health!"

"Ha, you got it~" Naoki Nagayama smiled, "Did you chat on the way?"

"Of course I did! When I asked her what speed she wanted to climb at, she looked at me like I was a fool!" Ozaki Takao said indignantly, "So what exactly are you going to do by asking me to take her racing?

!”

"Actually, when Shizuka-chan was recording the song, she couldn't get into the state. I knew she really liked racing...so I let her get a little more stimulation, get her emotions excited, and get her body excited, so that it would be easier for the next thing.

.”

"..."

After saying this, the other two people at the front desk looked at Nagayama Naoki with strange eyes.

Ozaki Takao swallowed the soda in his mouth and said in a strange tone: "Naoki, if you hadn't mentioned recording the song earlier, others would have thought you were going to do something strange to the little girl!"

"???"

Nagayama Naoki turned his head and glanced at Takeharu Kawahara, and found that he also showed an expression of approval, so he narrowed his eyes slightly:

“If it’s so normal, you can actually think wrong!!

You two are dirty guys! I look down on you!

Ho~~~Bah!!”

So Naoki Nagayama was naturally chased up to the second floor by Takao Ozaki.

After comforting the grumpy old man again, Naoki Nagayama introduced him: "Shizuka-chan is Shuyu's new artist, and she is currently recording a Tao song...ah, no, the first solo album. Strictly

Said Shizuka-chan has made her debut."

"Akizu sack!" Ozaki Takao seemed to suddenly remember something, "Kudo Shizuka Kudo Shizuka... seems to be a member of a certain group."

"Ah, Kitty Club, "Twilight Meow". Do you watch Takao-kun too?" In fact, the program "Twilight Meow" is mainly aimed at teenagers, and Ozaki Takao is obviously no longer young.

"I saw it twice when I first came back to Tokyo." Ozaki Takao obviously didn't remember the 15-year-old Kudo Shizuka, "I just said it looked familiar."

"Well, I dug her here~" Naoki Nagayama said.

"I see..." Ozaki Takao obviously thought that Naoki Nagayama paid special attention to this newcomer, "You pay attention to the first song, so you specially asked me to come over to help, right?"

"No..." Nagayama Naoki shook his head, "It's just that I think you should be more leisurely..."

"...."

The grumpy old man almost took action again~

In fact, Nagayama Naoki joked with this guy indifferently, knowing that he wouldn't care at all. The two were friends who hit it off when they met abroad. After arriving in Neon, they didn't have any strong interest relationship. It was a pure friendship.

Naoki Nagayama has many friends, but there are very few of them of the same age, and even fewer of similar levels.

Although he and Nakai Wonta are also good friends, now Nakai Wonta is working under him after all, and there is no harm in drinking, chatting and reminiscing about old times, but Nakai Wonta will not "take action" against him... The subtlety of this

is inevitable after the identity change...

.......

The entry of Shizuka Kudo broke the lively atmosphere, and even Takao Ozaki restrained himself a little in front of the little girl.

"Naoki-san, I'm ready!"

Nagayama Naoki nodded: "Okay, then let's try again!"

The singer walked into the recording studio, and as the simple accompaniment sounded, a brisk and bright voice also sounded:

"

...

Happy daySummer day

Sunshine Girl

I like it, Happy daySummer day

Sun shines for you

...

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!”

The singing this time is obviously much more cheerful than before, like a summer elf jumping past you.

Several people outside the recording room nodded along with the rhythm. Among them, Takao Ozaki was very happy and clapped his hands...

Soon the song ended and he said excitedly:

"Naoki, this song is a new song, it's very cheerful!"

"Yes, it's very suitable to listen to in the summer." Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "Takao, you are the first outsider to hear it! Hahaha, consider it today's reward~"

"How stingy!" Ozaki Takao rolled his eyes, "But it doesn't matter, it's nice to hear Shizuka-chan sing~ I will forgive you mercifully!"

"...."

It was the first time for Ozaki Takao to watch the recording of a record. He looked at the various buttons outside the recording room with curiosity: "Is this considered to have been recorded?"

"Not yet... The performance just now was very good, but there are still some areas that need to be adjusted."

"You still need to adjust?"

"certainly....."

As Naoki Nagayama spoke, he began to give more specific guidance to Shizuka Kudo in the recording studio. Some sentences needed to be recorded repeatedly, and the English of a few sentences also needed to be slightly adjusted...

Even with the samples in memory as a reference, the actual record production still took Naoki Nagayama a lot of time.

........

After the afternoon recording, Takao Ozaki asked:

"Going for a drink tonight?"

"I don't think I have much time. I have to go home...and then I have to rush to Kanagawa overnight to continue filming the movie." Naoki Nagayama slipped out halfway, and there was a whole crew waiting there.

"The filming hasn't been completed yet?" Takao Ozaki knew that Naoki Nagayama was filming a movie.

"It's coming soon. The filming will be completed in late August and will be released in mid-September." Naoki Nagayama patted Ozaki Takao on the shoulder, "Please come to the premiere then!"

"Oh? Then I have to look forward to it~"

After the two continued chatting for a while, Ozaki Takao left on his cool Kawasaki.

As for Nagayama Naoki here, he returned to Yamazakura-in in Kawahara Takeharu's car.

The dwarf bamboos outside the fence are still lush and green, and the bamboo leaves are intertwined together, making it difficult to see the specific appearance of the courtyard. There is only a lush cherry tree, and behind the cherry tree is a gray-brown two-story western-style building.

.

After opening the door, the empty courtyard became more alive. It has not been back for more than a month. Thanks to the regular cleaning by the housekeeping company, there seems to be no change in the Yamasakura courtyard.

The mats on the eaves and the thick reinforced concrete block the summer heat, making the living room even a little cooler. The dark brown floors and black walnut solid wood furniture are spotless, and the medals and trophies in the display cabinets are sparkling.

, sitting quietly with other accessories, as if waiting for the owner's review.

Naoki Nagayama felt a little more relaxed after returning home, but he was not in much mood to look around the room. Instead, he turned around and walked towards the study on the second floor.
To be continued...
