Soon it was time to set off.
Facts have proved that Baiyunshan's previous instructions were unnecessary. When the group was about to come downstairs, the staff who had just run out ran over panting, saying that the road to the shrine was indeed blocked and wanted to drive. I'm afraid it was a bit difficult in the past, so I might have to walk instead.
After learning the news, the sisters in the group immediately started wailing without any image, even a certain Hokkaido girl was no exception. It’s no wonder they behave like this. Although the building is not far from the shrine, just a few steps away, it’s so cold now!
It's almost mid-January in the winter, but I'm only wearing furisode, and I can imagine the feeling. Although the clothes are cumbersome enough, they can barely resist the cold, but they only cover most areas of the body, and other places are not included.
Not to mention the feet, just wearing thin white socks and wooden clogs, it was hard not to feel cold. As for the arms, due to the wide sleeves of Furisode, even if the front half of the arm is not exposed, the whooshing cold wind will make goosebumps stand up. The area around the neck is designed to accentuate the slender beauty. The cool breeze blows into the gap at the back of the neck. It feels like someone stuffed an ice cube into it during a snowball fight in winter. It makes me want to cry without tears——
However, if it is just a matter of visiting a shrine, interviewing, and taking photos, the girls, out of idol qualities, will grit their teeth and endure it, and the smiles on their faces will remain perfect without any flaws.
But it's different when you have to walk to your destination. Because you're wearing furisode, you won't be able to walk fast, which means you have to maintain the same idol qualities as before, with a perfect idol smile on your face, no matter how hard you walk. Even coldness cannot be shown. While moving forward slowly like a snail, even if I want to go faster in my heart, I can't speed up the pace. You can imagine the suffering——
"Baiyun Sang, what should I do -"
The helpless girls could only look helplessly at someone beside them and beg for help.
Fortunately, Baiyun Mountain had already prepared a countermeasure. Seeing this situation, he thoughtfully took out a few warm patches he had prepared for them, which barely added a touch of warmth to this cold and ruthless coming-of-age ceremony——
The girls naturally burst into tears of gratitude and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, even a certain mayonnaise star who always liked to play naysayer to him.
After all, although this thing can barely warm a small area, it is still a timely help. It is still useful to stick it on the back or deep in the sleeves. Just be careful not to stick it too far outside, otherwise it will be It would be bad if the photographer took the picture——
So, after the sister group was fully armed one by one, it was officially time to set off.
After saying goodbye to Baiyun Mountain, several girls walked side by side under the guidance of the staff, following the route notified in advance. Bai Yunshan and others followed behind at a distance, not only for the upcoming work needs, but also responsible for part of the security work of the little idols. Of course, the most important thing is to see the next scene——
I saw Baiyun Mountain looking away from the lively crowd. As soon as the four beautiful little idols appeared, they caused quite a commotion on the street where the number of people increased significantly.
Although there are many girls on the street wearing beautiful furisode and participating in coming-of-age ceremonies, compared with the members of these four sister groups, they have obviously suffered a dimensionality reduction blow.
After all, among the four of them, at first glance, the future flower of Oita Prefecture and Gunma Prefecture are clearly among them. One has soft eyes and the other has skin like snow. They don't look like ordinary people. Needless to say, the appearance of the other two is also needless to say. Due to her own temperament, a certain Hokkaido girl looks very natural when she wears this furisode. The cool atmosphere complements her own appearance, which is really eye-catching.
Even the girls of the same age who are dressed up in the same way around her are outshone just by her compatibility with the gentle temperament, not to mention her appearance, posture, and the increasingly mature and natural smile on her face, which can be said to pale in comparison.
With such an outstanding image, it is difficult not to attract attention, and once attention is attracted, discussion is naturally inevitable.
Baiyunshan was among the crowd following behind. When he pricked up his ears, he could hear the rustling sounds around him, and there were endless exclamations -
"These little girls are so beautiful. Are they also coming here to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony at the shrine? Why haven't I seen them before? Do they live nearby?"
"I don't know, I guess not. From the looks of it, you must be in the entertainment industry, either an actress or a model. Didn't you see the staff taking photos on the roadside all the time?"
"They seem to be an idol group. I've seen their promotional posters——"
"Idol group? Is it akb48?"
"No, it seems to have the same name as the nearby shrine, called Nogizaka——"
"It's Nogizaka46! I have bought their new album. They officially debuted last year. The members all look pretty good and the songs are good. They seem to have formed a band again recently, and they were quite popular on the Internet some time ago! "
"When you said that, I also remembered it. I have heard of this name, but I just didn't pay attention to it. Are the members in it so good-looking?"
"Yeah, look at that smile, even an uncle like me can't help but be tempted."
“I heard it’s from Sony, and I want my daughter to sign up and give it a try~”
"Haha, it must be too late then. I heard that the registration for their second batch of students has ended. I don't know how long it will take to recruit people again——"
...
Listening to the small compliments around him, Baiyunshan smiled and said nothing, but his expression looked particularly satisfied.
After all, the goal has been achieved. Isn't this kind of fanfare and all the stars supporting the moon just to achieve the effect of publicity? The best publicity method often starts with arousing the interest of the masses as the first step. At least in the subsequent impressions of these people, the labels of beautiful, unique, and completely different from AKB will be different from the previous ones. The words Nogizaka that appeared were firmly bound together, and this was exactly what he needed.
Then suddenly his expression changed, and when he turned his head, he saw Mai Fukawa, who was walking beside her. She was silently staring at the girls ahead who were bathed in the sun, as if they were walking under the spotlight. Although his expression was sincerely happy for the former to receive such admiration and attention, there was also a hint of envy that could not be concealed in his eyes.
"Fukawa, it seems that your coming-of-age ceremony was not held in the group, right?"
