"Members, come in."
STAFF shouted at the door of the lounge, and a group of girls wearing purple and white plaid dresses and large down jackets entered one by one. The lounge is not big. With the group of them and the staff who were filming, the entire lounge was already packed. They stood in a circle around the table intentionally or unintentionally.
"First of all, I would like to congratulate Nogizaka on her happy birthday!" Captain Sakurai Reika said when she saw everyone standing.
"Yeah~!" "Happy birthday~" "Three years anniversary~"
Everyone clapped their hands and cheered.
"Then we are going to hold a birthday LIVE today. The weather is cold and the audience has to watch in the cold for a long time. This is a relatively serious situation. However, we want to provide a LIVE that will make them enjoy themselves, so I hope everyone can enjoy this LIVE from the bottom of their hearts. I hope everyone realizes that they need to show the performance to the audience carefully and implement it throughout the performance. Also, if you perform for a long time, your attention may be interrupted. I hope everyone can adjust themselves. OK, hold on until the end!"
After talking about it, Sakurai Reika's tone became excited.
"はい!" the members also shouted in unison.
"Then, let's begin! 1..2.. Hard work, thanks, smile! うちらはNogizaka, Kamizaka! 46!"
"Yo!" "Come on!" "Dance until you're tired!"
The lounge was full of energy. After everyone got up, the feeling of lethargy was gone, and there was a kind of power filling the limbs and heads.
"Come on, everyone, take the ear monitors for yourself. They all have names written on them. Don't take them by mistake." STAFF came up with a basket of things similar to wireless walkie-talkies, but they were much smaller than wireless walkie-talkies. They were wrapped with wires and Attached to in-ear headphones.
"Eagle, yours."
The big condor couldn't get through the crowd, so she originally wanted to wait until they had taken it before going to look for it, but Hoshino Minami, who was closer, saw the earring with the name of the big condor on it first, and handed it to her.
"Thank you." The Great Condor took it with both hands, facing this girl who was almost the same age, there was still some distance between them.
The ticket check-in for Nogizaka's third anniversary LIVE officially started at 9:30, but as early as eight o'clock, there was already a sea of people at the entrance of Seibu Dome. The members put on makeup not far from Seibu Dome, got in the car and drove there Seibu Dome. She didn't know why the company didn't prepare a bus for so many people, but had to send several vans to send people off.
Looking at the sea of people outside the venue, the Great Condor was amazed. Last time there were only more than 10,000 people for the second anniversary, but this time it seemed that they were even more crowded.
At 11:30, all the members arrived backstage at Seibu Dome. There was only half an hour left before the official opening. The members put their clothes and cosmetics for touch-ups at the rehearsal venue, and then returned backstage to prepare. When they came on stage, they took off their down jackets, leaving only a thin purple dress.
In this venue where the minimum temperature is 2°C and the maximum temperature is 5°C, it is no different from running naked.
In the remaining half hour, the staff was not idle. They carried cameras and began to interview some popular members. They basically asked how they were feeling now and what they thought.
These have nothing to do with the Great Condor. They stood nearby to warm up, trying to find some warmth in the cold weather, because the night before yesterday she was addicted to novels again, and today she was yawning all the time. If it weren't for the weather that kept her awake all the time. Sober, she could probably fall asleep standing up.
"eagle."
Just as the great condor was moving its ankles, Asuka Saito came over at some point and called her.
"ah?"
"Are you graduating?"
"Huh? No."
The Great Condor had a question mark on her face. When did she say she was going to graduate?
"Phew, I was scared to death. I heard Erika say that you are about to graduate."
"That guy..." The corner of Da Shenying's eye twitched, "I just said that. The main reason is that I have an attendance problem in high school, and I don't know how to solve it."
"Go to the same school as me. It's a correspondence system, so you don't have to worry about attendance." Saito Asuka said.
"I want to take the college entrance exam...are you taking the exam?"
"No test."
"That's fine then."
After saying that, the Great Condor took off the ear plugs from his ears and kept wearing them like this. His ears were a little painful from being stuffed.
"Eagle, in a few days, do you want to..." Asuka Saito's voice was as thin as a mosquito. In the noisy venue, the Great Condor couldn't hear what she said.
"What did you say? It's too noisy. Please speak louder."
"I said!"
"Hawk-chan!"
Just when Saito Asuka was about to speak out loud, a voice came from another direction. Saito Asuka looked around and saw four adults. They looked familiar to her. Their names were right on her lips, but she couldn't pronounce them. The big condor next to him ran over like a flying arrow.
"Sister Yao!"
That's right, the people who came were none other than the crew of "Umi Street Diary", Haruka Ayase, Masami Nagasawa, Kaho and director Hirokazu Kore-eda.
The great condor rushed forward and pounced on Ayase Haruka. Ayase Haruka stumbled back and almost fell over.
"Hey, take it easy..."
The Great Condor was very light, but it could not withstand the impact of her sprint. Coupled with her small and flat body, the Great Condor felt very comfortable, but Ayase Haruka's chest hurt from the impact.
"Hey, hey, hey, I'm still here, hey!" Nagasawa Masami saw the big condor clinging to Ayase Haruka as soon as he came up, and his jealousy suddenly boiled over.
"Sister Xia Fan~"
Letting go of Ayase Haruka and walking around Nagasawa Masami, the Great Condor hugged Xia Fan, and the two hugged each other.
"Hey, did you do it on purpose?"
"Tsk, how could it be possible, Sister Yami." The great condor let go of Xia Fan and came over with a look on his face, opening his arms to hug her.
"Go, you didn't even hug me when you came here." Nagasawa Masami avoided the great condor's arms in disgust.
"Sister Yamei, my love for you is astonishing. Don't you know that you should save the delicious food for last?"
After saying that, the Great Condor hugged her, but she did not refuse this time.
"Koreeda-san, good afternoon."
"Well, thank you for your hard work in this cold weather."
But when it came to Kore-eda Hirokazu, the Great Condor only greeted him verbally. Hirokazu Kore-eda also understands that although he is a film director, the idol industry has a great influence on Japan, and he naturally knows that the two must keep a distance.
"Why are you here?"
This is the issue that Great Condor is concerned about. She remembers that when she distributed concert tickets to the members, Great Condor did not send them to them.
"It was sent to us by Sato-san. You didn't even give us tickets for your concert, so the relationship has faded." Ayase Haruka said, holding the bag on her shoulder.
"No, I thought you were busy. I gave you tickets. If you don't have time to come, you have to tell me again. How embarrassing..."
The Great Condor deliberately did not send them tickets. If he sent them, they would have to send an apology message back to him if they didn't want to come or didn't have time.
"Let me tell you, this is your concert, we must come." Nagasawa Masami said, pinching the little face of the big condor.
"Well..."
"Next time, remember to bring the tickets obediently, do you hear me?" Masami Nagasawa said, looking away from the great condor.
"Aren't you rich..."
"Um?"
"Nothing, nothing, I'll do it next time, I'll do it next time." The big condor waved his hand.
They haven't seen each other for a few months. Three women are playing a show. This has nothing to do with age. The topic of four women is even more heated. Hirokazu Kore-eda on the side is like an old man who can't fit in. He is awkwardly holding his hands behind his back. Standing on the ground.
"Eagle, get ready to take the stage!"
"good!"
But soon, the Great Condor was called over by Sakurai Reika.
"Then I'll go over first." The Great Condor said to the four of them before leaving.
"Well, go ahead, we'll keep watching, come on!"
The four people waved goodbye to the Great Condor, but instead of going directly to the auditorium, they walked towards the control room.
They came to this concert firstly because of the Great Condor, and secondly, because of the Great Condor, but they had to tell Yoshio Konno directly about this matter.
