"Dong dong dong~" Amamiya Sori was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly woken up by a violent knock on the door.
"Who is it?" He opened the phone on the bedside in a daze. It was only three o'clock in the night.
"Emergency gathering, please dress neatly, there will be important announcements later." The voice of the Nogizaka staff came through the door.
There was something that couldn't be announced yesterday that would disturb people's dreams. Amamiya Sori reluctantly got up from the bed, spent a few minutes, put on loose sportswear, and finished washing.
As soon as I walked out, I met several members who were also confused. Due to the urgency of the staff, some members even wore pajamas.
"Ah - ugh~" Amamiya Shiori yawned.
"Isn't it some kind of surprise prank?" She asked the staff, and the reply was that the announcement would not be made until everyone arrived at the dance practice room.
So the group of people took the bus without waking up and headed to their usual training place.
Tokyo is very cold at night. The hot breath condensed on the car windows, making it difficult to see the night scenery. In just ten minutes' drive, we arrived at a Sony Music building near Ichinogani Station.
Everyone who was awake did not have noisy conversations on the road as usual, but was quiet.
When everyone walked into the practice room, Amamiya Shiori found that the camera had been set up.
"Eh? Are you going to take pictures later?" the members asked in a panic.
It was a rush to go out just now, and some members didn't even change their clothes, not to mention putting on makeup. It would definitely not look good to have this kind of image captured on camera.
"It's okay. There will be time to change clothes and put on makeup later. Please wait quietly." Nanxiang Yui reassured everyone.
Amamiya Shiori glanced around and saw that the members called this time were all selected members. In addition to the dozen or so people living in the dormitory, the selected members who lived in Tokyo were also notified one after another and came to the practice room.
Wearing thick down jackets, Ikoma Rina and Ichirai Rena stood there swaying, as if they would fall asleep in the next second. Saito Yuri was wearing pajamas and his hair was not combed.
Mai Shiraishi, Sayuri Inoue, Kazumi Takayama, and Nanase Nishino were among the few who were neatly dressed as if they were shopping every day. They look relatively sober.
Before everyone had arrived, Amamiya Soi found a corner and sat down.
With his back against the wall, Amamiya Shiori pulled down the hood of his sports coat, tied a scarf on, and began to take a nap.
When Yoshio Konno led several staff members into the practice room at four o'clock, all the members who had been notified arrived. Only those who were still awake woke up those who were napping one by one.
There were 16 members selected, except Erika Ikuta.
Everyone lined up in two rows with eight cardboard boxes in front of them. The staff helped open it, and there were lots of tissues inside.
"Good morning, everyone!" Yoshio Konno was also very sleepy. He just washed his face with cold water and managed to cheer up.
"Good morning." Although they were very sleepy, everyone still responded as loudly as possible when they saw the footage being shot.
"I'm sorry for delaying everyone's rest time." Konno first explained the reason for calling everyone here, "Today, in order to promote your debut single "Curtain Surrounded", we will travel all over the country to promote it. The 16 members are divided into 4 Each group has 4 people, and each group has to go to two cities to promote, and then distribute the 4,600 packs of tissues in front of them within today."
"Eh, within today?" After hearing Konno's words, everyone could no longer calm down. After deducting the hours required for transportation, roughly calculating based on 10 hours of activity time, it takes about 2 minutes for each person to send out a packet.
"That's right, the amount of tasks for each group is 1,150 packs. We will choose the distribution location in the city based on the fans' suggestions on Twitter. Of course, you also have some additional promotional tasks, and the staff will tell you the details on the road. .”
Konno waited for everyone to gradually quiet down before continuing, "Due to time constraints, we will announce the groupings now."
"Members of the first group: Saito Asuka, Hashimoto Nanami, Amamiya Shiori and Ikoma Rina. You will go to Sendai and Sapporo." This group is going north, going to two centers in Hokkaido and Tohoku. City.
"Members of the second group: Reina Ichirai, Mayo Kawamura, Sayuri Matsumura and Hana Nakata. You will go to Niigata and Osaka." In this group, Kawamura and Matsumura are both from Osaka and have geographical advantages. They will be called one when the time comes. If you ask relatives and friends to help you, it will be distributed quickly.
"The third group members: Nishino Nanase, Saito Yuri, Takayama Kazumi, Sakurai Reika. Your destination is Kyoto and Nagoya."
"The last group: Mai Shiraishi, Sayuri Inoue, Ai Nojo and Minami Hoshino. Your destinations are Hiroshima and Fukuoka."
"As for Erika Ikuta, she will not participate in this event because she has to prepare for the high school entrance examination."
So that's it, Amamiya Shiori scratched her head. She was wondering why Ikuta missed such an opportunity to shoot on location.
Yoshio Konno announced the group status, explained the absence of Erika Ikuta, and urged everyone to act quickly. "Time is running out. Everyone, go change into your uniforms, pack your things, and set off as soon as possible."
Back in the locker room, everyone changed into thin uniforms. Although it is winter at the moment, for the sake of publicity, I still have to bite the bullet.
"Everyone, come on!"
At the entrance of the building, after cheering each other on, the members divided into four groups and took different means of transportation to travel to four directions across the country.
Amamiya Shiori and her team will first take the JR to Sendai.
"Xiao Zhi! Nana Min! Look!" Asuka Saito was still an energetic child at this age. He was extremely excited after getting on the JR train. He kept looking out the window at the scenery along the road covered in silver. .
The two "elderly people" Amamiya Shiori and Hashimoto Nanami just want to catch up on their sleep. As for Ikoma Rina? She had already put on the eyepatch with the "Sharingan" on it and fell asleep leaning on the seat.
"Oh..." After a perfunctory promise to Saito Asuka, Amamiya Shiori opened his eyes and glanced at Asuka with a resentful look. "Get some sleep, Ashlin~ I'll be giving out a day's worth of tissues soon, so don't be too sleepy by then."
"Ah, I'm sorry." Saito Asuka said slightly apologetically.
The accompanying film crew members were also bleary-eyed. Since it was early in the morning, there were not many other passengers on this train except them.
"Okay, go to bed quickly." Amamiya Shiori adjusted his posture. It was really uncomfortable to sleep in the car. She missed her warm quilt very much at this moment.
