When the plane landed, the weather in Okinawa was obviously much more humid than Tokyo, and much more humid than Japan. The journey from the airport to the hotel we booked only takes 20 minutes, and the night view of Okinawa has a unique flavor. Compared to the materialism of the metropolis of Tokyo, Okinawa is more of a quiet town.
"Gather in the lobby at nine o'clock tomorrow morning on time, is it clear?"
"はい~"
The members had just received their room cards from STAFF and were preparing to go upstairs to settle their luggage.
'Okay, I won't be fooled by her this time. '
Nishino Nanase stood in the crowd, holding the room card tightly in her hand. This time, the person in the same room with her was the Great Condor. Just like last time, thinking of the last time she was teased around by the Great Condor in the bathroom, Nishino Nanase was shocked again. She was ashamed and resentful. Since they happened to be together again this time, she could never hold him in her palm again.
"Na-chan."
Just as she was thinking this, a female voice interrupted her thoughts.
"Kazuya, what's wrong?"
Nishino Nanase looked up and saw Nana Hashimoto walking towards her.
"Well, that's it. Do you think you can change rooms with me? Ying is not in a good condition right now. She said she wants to share a room with me."
Nana Hashimoto said with some embarrassment that under normal circumstances she didn't care who she shared a room with, and it didn't matter who she was with. If the Great Condor hadn't begged her just now, she wouldn't have come to Nishino Nanase to change. room card.
"Ah..." Nishino Nanase glanced in the direction behind Nami Hashimoto. The Great Condor was lying on the sofa, motionless, as if dead. "That's okay."
After much hesitation, Nishino Nanase gave the room key to Hashimoto Nanami. Firstly, it was a rare opportunity for Hashimoto Nanami to ask her for a request. Secondly, she really didn’t know how to take care of others. Usually, others would take care of her. Not to mention the half-dead Great Condor.
Although her ultimate goal was to no longer be teased by the Great Condor, she felt inexplicably reluctant to just hand over the room key.
"Let's go." After getting the room card, Hashimoto Nana walked back to the sofa and pulled the body up.
"Um...hug." The great condor opened his arms and emphasized a little coquettishly.
"How can I hold you? There's a lot of luggage here, and it's not like you can't walk by yourself." Nana Hashimoto knocked off one of the Great Condor's arms, grabbed the other arm and pulled her up from the sofa, "Let's go Yes, ancestor."
The Great Condor stood up, and his body naturally fell towards Hashimoto Nanami, leaning on her, and the two of them walked to the elevator.
The hotel this time was not bad. Although it was not a five-star luxury hotel, at least their room could see the sea view, and when the floor-to-ceiling windows were opened, a gentle sea breeze could blow in.
"Which bed do you want?"
After entering the room, the two put their luggage aside, and Nana Hashimoto asked. The Great Condor answered her with action and lay down straight on the bed near the toilet.
"Hey... I said you are in this state, is it really okay tomorrow?" Hashimoto Nanami sat next to her and rubbed her hair.
"It's no problem...you have to take your work seriously..." Although she said this, her voice was still weak.
"Your health is more important. If you faint by then, you will be in even greater trouble."
"I will take painkillers. Besides, work is work, no matter how painful it is, you have to endure it." The Great Condor lifted his face from the quilt and tilted it to the side.
"Don't be brainwashed by Mai's theory. Is work more important than body? Can you use some judgment?" As he spoke, Nana Hashimoto nodded the back of the great condor's head.
"You're still talking about me, who was so anxious that she wanted to cry during the tour the year before last? It wasn't me anyway." A smile appeared on the corner of Da Shenying's mouth.
"Why don't I hurt you to death?"
Hashimoto Nana turned around and entered the bathroom without leaving a word.
Nana Hashimoto walked into the bathroom and turned on the faucet to wash her hands. Looking at herself in the mirror, her thoughts were brought back to the summer two years ago.
She forgot what day it was in August. She was filming a film at that time. Frequent allergic reactions made it difficult to film. The stinging sensation was particularly strong. Even now when she thinks about it, she breaks out in a cold sweat. She has no doubt that she Did you take a swim in the Santu River?
The reason why she joined Nogizaka in the first place has long been known to everyone. "If you become an artist, you will get a bento, so you don't have to worry about food and drink!" She was forced into a desperate situation by life, and she entered by accident. into the world of idols. It was such a person who became an idol just for lunch, but when she was suffering from allergies, this sentence kept echoing in her ears.
"You are dragging everyone down."
She suddenly understood that kind of emotional entanglement, that kind of feeling of powerlessness that, as long as you have experienced it once, you can only watch others on the stage and you are helpless, that kind of feeling that was thrown away by the gradually spreading and endless gap and fell to the ground. The loss and the injuries on the body are all colluding with each other, and they work together.
She was used to being alone on weekdays and dealing with things calmly. She had to admit that at that time, she felt that everything had left her. Her heart was empty, she had no job, and she was in a terrible mood, as if she had been in darkness for a long time.
The darkness almost pushed her into the abyss.
The last show of the 2014 Manatsu tour, Meiji Jingu Shrine, was the peak they climbed to for the first time. The splendid fireworks illuminated everyone's face, with smiles blooming and tears flashing, but it did not include hers. As a surprise guest, she was also present. In the backstage, she saw the busyness of the staff in front of and behind the scenes, the sweat left by the members' hastily changing costumes, and many faces crying because of unwillingness, but she could All he did was weakly go on stage and say to the fans: "I'm really sorry that I couldn't attend."
That's all.
But what she received in return was a flood of shouts and support.
"Nanamin!"
It was a voice of support that she had never heard before. The support that time was particularly loud. It was before and it is now. The last summer tour in 2014 was her most unforgettable concert.
Back to the present, her physical weakness still often bothers her. She always feels that "this is the limit" and there are often situations where she can't bear it. However, Hashimoto Nana will keep telling herself, "If I give up today, I will To disappoint the fans who smiled and came to shake my hand, I had to go."
Is she the bento girl from back then? She still is. Has she ever changed? Never. Has she ever given up? Never.
In the beginning, she really just came here for the free lunch. But there are many uncertain factors in people's lives. Is she a member who shares the joys and sorrows? Is it the staff who is running for them? Are they the fans who support them no matter where they are? Maybe both, and maybe there were other reasons that caused her to change her mind about the job.
She believes that the same is true for Shiraishi Mai. If this is just a job for them, they can take it seriously, but it's hard to say how serious it is. Carrying the title of 'Nogizaka46' sometimes represents more than just themselves.
As for the body of the Great Condor lying on the bed outside the bathroom, what was the original intention of the Great Condor when he joined the group? What now? Perhaps from the conversation between the two just now, we can know what the Great Condor's attitude is.
It is said that the Great Condor was 'brainwashed', but she was not.
Perhaps, they are all the same kind of people.
