"Because they hide their most laughable parts and want to make the audience happy in the same way as ordinary people." Chiba Cheng said with great feeling.

Don’t the people in the troupe know that the stories they perform are old and not funny?

You must know it.

But they would rather continue to act like this than use their physical flaws to make people laugh. It is indeed difficult to be poor, but even more difficult is to sell your self-esteem. In this way, they carefully protect the remaining self-esteem.

But today, for the sake of Durban, they gave up their only self-esteem and took the initiative to inform the victory team of their shortcomings. This is also the reason why Horii and Shinjo finally gave up on separating Durban and the troupe. They would rather be more troublesome and would rather Take responsibility and bring those people with you.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.

This troupe is a big family composed of people on the margins of society. There is an invisible wall between them and the prosperous world, a wall that cannot be broken through hard work, so they can only hug each other for warmth, because only the only ones who can ignore and care about each other's flaws are each other.

Would they be willing to go into newspapers, magazines and even TV, letting everyone see the things they least want people to see, and telling true and false stories, even if they are unwilling to show their flaws in front of a very small audience?

What's more, there is Durban, which is a part of their big family and they will never give up no matter what. This is why they don't stay in one place, but wander around to perform, because they have stayed in one place for a long time. , Durban’s exposure risk will skyrocket.

Once they are on TV and gain attention, more people will stare at them. Durban will definitely be exposed, so unless they abandon Durban, it is impossible for this troupe to agree to such 'hype'.

After listening to Chiba Makoto's analysis, Maya also fell silent. She was very aware of this when she was at the peak of her career. There were spotlights everywhere, worried sneak shots and fans who were so enthusiastic that they asked for flight information and even home addresses.

Any little thing will attract great attention. You must be cautious in what you say and do, because there are cameras pointing at you from nowhere, hoping to capture big news, and there are also all kinds of rumors fabricated by opponents and jealous people. , simply countless.

Nothing in the world is perfect, and whatever you gain, you must lose.

This topic did not continue, and instead we talked about "Red Hot Encouragement" sung by Maya, which was a very charming ballad. Chiba Makoto really didn't expect that Maya could finish it so quickly. You must know that filling in the blanks is more difficult than making sentences. After all, you can make sentences at will, but you have to fill in the blanks according to the context.

Facing the unprofessional compliments, Maya felt that she was treating her as a little girl? Will you be happy just by coaxing?

It seemed quite interesting. You unconsciously raised the corners of your mouth and smiled. Looking at Chiba Makoto, you always felt that he was like a puzzle that could never be solved. When you thought you had seen the answer, you found that There are more unknowns behind.

For example, this song has a nice melody and lyrics, but it was definitely not written by Chiba Makoto, a novice who couldn't even read music notation. But she had never heard anyone sing it. She also asked out of curiosity, but Chiba Makoto said Coming from another world, I really treat her like a little girl.

During the pleasant conversation, a black car slowly stopped in front, and the driver's window rolled down, revealing Lucia, who was dressed in the same style as Maya. She said in fluent language: "We should go back. , there is still a lot of work tomorrow."

"Lucia, have you learned how to drive?" Chiba Cheng was very surprised. How long has it been? Not only did he learn the earth's language, but he could also drive. He has strong learning and adaptability abilities.

Lucia parked the car and said, "It's very simple. I learned it in no time, but the car is so slow. It's not as fast as me."

"Uh... you run pretty fast, haha!" Chiba Makoto could only laugh. You can run thousands of kilometers in a few hours. This speed is comparable to the Shinkansen, what about cars? It's probably as slow as crawling in her eyes.

"She is now my bodyguard, assistant, and driver," Maya introduced Lucia, who wears many hats, and finally asked: "What about you? Have you got your driver's license?"

"...I'll definitely do it next time." Chiba Makoto, who had long said that he wanted to learn to drive and was still traveling on a motorcycle, was speechless.

Lucia couldn't help laughing when she saw the conversation between the two people. After saying hello to Chiba Makoto, she then chattered about Maya's work tomorrow, including a magazine cover shoot, an interview, and... ..

In short, the schedule during the concert is basically full, and it is a luxury to be able to spare half an hour to walk and chat here.

Chiba Makoto looked at Lucia who was doing her duty and couldn't help but smile happily. It was great that she could live on this planet.

Maya got into the car, lowered the window and waved goodbye to Chiba Cheng. She didn't turn around and sit down until Chiba Cheng disappeared behind. She sighed slightly, with a bored look on her face, and held her hands unconsciously. The seats, what I wanted to say and what I wanted to ask were not said out in the end.

Because she was keenly aware of what Chiba had been worrying about. Could it be because of the gap in social status between the two parties? But this means nothing to them. Telepathy can easily obtain money, power, status, etc. that humans can only obtain after going through hardships and hardships.

The last time she heard the news from those cosmic beings that big companies wanted to cut leeks, she made a fortune, and the psychological implications for human beings made her agent agree to many things that she would definitely object to under normal circumstances. matter.

And so on, so the class gap that humans care about, for aliens, is more concerned about strength, because in the dark jungle of the universe, only the strong can survive better.

Lucia, who was driving ahead, glanced at the rearview mirror and looked at Maya who was bored. There was a hesitant look on her face. She hesitated to speak, but finally turned her attention back to the road ahead.

Chiba Makoto, who was behind, looked at the disappearing car and suddenly felt that the three of them were actually the same as the theater troupe that was being abandoned by the times. They were in a world that did not belong to them, carefully hiding things that they did not want to be seen. The same thing. Hug together to keep warm.

"Alas!" Chiba Cheng sighed deeply, suppressed the thoughts in his mind, and began to think about how to deal with the devil from another dimension. He dared to attend the concert here today instead of following Durban and Shengli. The reason for the team's action is that Ainengmei will not come out in a short time, so the victory team's bait plan is destined to be in vain.
