Kyogoku saw this notice on the school bulletin wall, copied the phone number into her notebook, and then continued to the rehearsal room.

By the time she arrived at the rehearsal room, other members of the drama club had already started rehearsing, speaking their lines passionately.

After Kyogoku walked in, it was as if a shielding device was installed on her body, and almost everyone in the rehearsal room turned a blind eye to her.

Kyogoku took out a costume from the box in the corner and put it on directly. The costume was brown, and there were plastic leaves on the hood.

The character she plays is Stump.

The whole process was done with his back to the audience on stage, and there were only two lines.

"Oh my god, it's the Shadow Knight here!" and "I'm the tree elf!"

Kyogoku loves acting, but because she is only 1.5 meters tall and has average breasts, she cannot get a good role in the drama club, so she can only play this kind of living prop.

Her childhood dream was to become a respected actor, but as time went by, this dream became more and more out of reach.

Even her mother said to her mercilessly: "Axiang, don't always think about being a star. This is impossible for you. You are not a big beauty."

Kyogoku was very unconvinced, and secretly made up her mind to become a household name! But as time went by, she began to recognize the reality, and the flame of her dream gradually extinguished.

The main force of the drama club is a senior senior who is tall and pretty. Although her height is only 156cm (Japanese girls are generally not tall, and even short is considered beautiful), her body proportions are very good. She is also very good-looking, even if she is casual.

Taking two steps on the road will attract the attention of many people.

This may be the person who is suitable to be a star, but compared to this senior sister, Kyogoku gives people the exact opposite feeling. She is not ugly, and is even pretty, but she seems to have no sense of presence and is often easily overlooked.

People ignore it.

Even during dinner parties, everyone often forgets to prepare a bowl for her, either deliberately isolating her or forgetting about it. This kind of thing has happened frequently since childhood, and Kyogoku is also helpless.

After the joint performance of the six schools in the near future, I will quit the drama club and study hard. Kyogoku Kaoru thought.

It was another two hours of continuous rehearsal. Kyogoku squatted in the corner of the rehearsal room very seriously. As time went by, her legs became a little numb.

After the rehearsal ended, the senior who played the leading role wiped the sweat from her head and said, "I'm so tired. Let's go get a cold drink."

With that said, the group of people walked out of the rehearsal room together, talking and laughing.

Kyogoku stood up and watched the group of people leaving. Although she was used to it, she still felt a little sad.

She took off her costume and walked out. The sky was a little cloudy. After leaving the drama club, she went to work in a nearby convenience store.

After the work was over, the boss took out the envelope containing the salary and said, "Xiaoxiang, this is your pay last week."

"Thank you, Mrs. Miyamoto." Kyogoku took the envelope and bowed in thanks.

"By the way, Xiaoxiang, in the next month, my child's father will go back to the countryside, so the store will be closed for a while."

"Okay, I know."

After leaving her part-time job, Kyogoku walked on the street, thinking about what kind of part-time job she would find in the next month.

At this time, passing by a public telephone booth, she suddenly stopped and took out the

I carried a notebook with me. Then I found a phone number in the notebook and called it.

A man's voice answered the phone. Kyogoku claimed that she wanted to try out this role, and the two parties agreed on an interview time and location - a bookstore near Ueno Park.

Kyogoku walked to the bookstore with her schoolbag on her back and found that there were already people waiting for the interview. The people waiting for the interview were sitting in the cafe area on the first floor, while the interviewers went up to the second floor.

Kyogoku was waiting silently with his schoolbag in his arms, quietly looking at the people around him with his peripheral vision. At this moment, he suddenly saw several boys from the drama club sitting in the coffee area reading comic books. His lips moved slightly, and he was just about to say hello.

, but seeing that there were so many people on the other side and no one noticed him at all, he put down his hand to say hello again.

At this time, the senior sister came down from the second floor, and the boys stood up and asked, "Nan, how are you doing?"

The senior sister spread her hands helplessly, "This director said I'm not suitable and thinks I can't play a cartoonist. Hmm, that's ridiculous."

One of the boys also sneered, "Forget it, anyway, I heard that this guy is also a bad movie director."

"How to say?"

"My cousin also participated in the peer film festival and met this guy. He said that his works were nonsense."

"Haha. So that's it."

Several people were talking and just about to walk out of the bookstore, Kyogoku plucked up the courage to stand up and said, "Senior, um..."

The senior sister stopped and turned to look at Kyogoku, "Call me? Ah, you are..."

The senior sister couldn't remember her name for a moment, and then a boy next to her reminded her: "He's also from our drama club, and he plays the role of a tree elf. His name seems to be..."

"It's you, tree elf." Senior Sister smiled, "What are you doing here?"

"I..." Kyogoku said a little embarrassed, "I'm here to interview for a role too."

"That's it." The senior sister said with a smile, "Come on, tree elf. By the way, what's your name."

"Kyogoku Fragrance."

"I remember, goodbye, Xiaoxiang." The seniors waved their hands and left, with the boys behind them acting like followers.

Kyogoku looked at her senior's back with some envy. She didn't expect to be able to hug her like her senior, but she just hoped that when she followed others, she wouldn't be left behind by others like usual.

"Even senior sister was not selected..." Kyogoku felt guilty, it seemed like she had no hope.

She sat in the corner and watched the other interviewees in the coffee shop going up to the second floor one after another, but they all left in despair. She felt that these girls who were so beautiful could not pass, and she should have no hope.

But give it a try, just in case a miracle happens.

Kyogoku waited silently. As time passed, she became a little sleepy.

So I fell asleep leaning against the wall in the corner of the coffee area.

After an unknown amount of time, a hand gently shook her shoulder.

"Girl, wake up."

Kyogoku opened her eyes and saw a handsome man leaning over to look at her.

"Ah." Kyogoku stood up quickly, turned around and looked around, but there was no one there.

"Why did you fall asleep? We were playing foreign games, sorry." the man said.

"I'm studying abroad...but what about the interview? Is the interview over?" Kyogoku asked.

"Are you here for an interview?" the other party asked.

"Yes." Kyogoku nodded, but as soon as he lowered his head, he didn't have the nerve to raise it up.

When the other party saw her reaction, his eyes lit up, he touched his chin, and shouted in the distance: "Oho, what's wrong with you? There's someone here who hasn't been interviewed yet."

"Ah?" Ohno Nagaharu poked his head out from behind the bookshelf, "Sorry, I didn't notice it."

"It's not too late for an interview." Fujiwara Kei smiled at Kyogoku.
