The Wonderful Daily Life of Nogizaka

In spring and April, the sun is shining brightly.

April is the beginning of school, which means that the new semester has officially kicked off. The student party members have begun to live a life of being idols and students at the same time. This may sound enviable, but in fact it is not easy.

Baiyunshan didn't have much to do about this. It was difficult to have both, and there were very few people who could balance idolatry with academics. He could only verbally encourage and comfort them so that they wouldn't be too tired.

, after all, everything is currently on the rise, and it would be a big deal if something goes wrong with your body.

When it comes to the topic of idols and studies, another person has to be mentioned.

The spring breeze is blowing, but time is not leisurely.

On this day, Baiyun Mountain met Chuan Jingai.

As colleagues who never looked up before seeing each other, the two of them had a similar aversion. Kawakage Ai's position has always been regarded as the number one under Yoshio Konno. Unless it is something particularly important, generally speaking, everything must be done through approval.

He came to convey it, and today is no exception.

Baiyunshan looked at the girl standing quietly behind him in the corridor, a glimmer of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he said smoothly: "This is -"

"Akimoto Manatsu."

Chuan Jingai replied: "Konano-san asked me to bring her here for the first-term student who is on leave. Now that school has started, her academic problems have almost been solved and she can come back. It's just that her debut list is not the same as the current second-term student.

She hasn't been in contact with Shan Shan yet, so it will take some time to get used to it, so there is no rush to announce the news."

Baiyunshan nodded slightly.

This is also his idea. Breaking in is definitely necessary. First of all, since he has not been in the team for so long, his relationship with the members must be a lot rusty. This needs to be cultivated slowly. Secondly, his dancing and singing skills must also be neglected.

After all, I took a break from work to take college entrance exams, so it is impossible to have time to maintain my level in this area, even if I have trained with other members before.

But if we have to keep up with the progress, I am afraid that not only this order, but also the next order will not be available.

The time between two orders means that several months have been wasted. This is a silent pressure for a girl who is standing on the same starting line.

Baiyunshan is still a little worried.

But he hid these things very well, and his thoughts only flashed through him for a moment. Then he looked at the girl, stretched out his right hand and said: "Hello, my name is Baiyunshan. I am currently one of your agents. At the same time, because of

I also serve as a temporary member of the operations team, so I chatter a lot on weekdays, so please bear with me."

The seemingly quiet and knowledgeable girl also quickly took a step forward, stretched out her hand and said, "No, I am Akimoto Manatsu, please take care of me."

The two hands were held together politely, and they separated at the touch of a touch.

Chuan Jingai glanced at Baiyun Mountain in surprise. Judging from his understanding of this guy, such a normal self-introduction was not like this guy's style...

But then he shook his head and threw away these unnecessary thoughts, waved to Baiyun Mountain and said: "Then I will leave Baiyun Sang first. The specific itinerary depends on how you arrange it. In terms of time, it is not urgent, or

It’s very abundant, so please come here.”

Baiyunshan nodded slightly.

Chuan Jingai waved his hand, turned and left.

After Chuan Jingai left, Baiyunshan officially looked at the girl in front of him.

Hmm... The clothes are impeccable. There is nothing wrong with the knitted woolen sweater and skirt. The colors match well. She is a girl who knows how to dress. She is much better than a certain president. She is thin and petite.

Yes, it doesn’t look much different from the other members, especially the legs are thin, so I’ll add one point.

There’s not much of a problem with the face. Although it’s not as good-looking as Shiraishi Mai, it seems to be enough for now, and the face and smile should be very friendly. It’s just that the head circumference seems to be a little abnormal - huh?

Isn't it normal? It doesn't seem too abnormal, at least it's not bigger than my head, but why do I always feel that this head is a bit outrageous...

Baiyunshan thought to himself.

The girl named Akimoto Manatsu could not stand the glance of the person in front of her head. She always felt that she was being despised by him. She coughed lightly to attract the other person's attention, and then said: "

Bai Sang——"

"No, don't call me Bai Sang."

Before she finished speaking, Baiyunshan waved her hand and interrupted her.

"That's not what everyone calls me."

Akimoto Manatsu opened his eyes in confusion and said in confusion: "But I have asked Konano-san, Shiro, is your last name, isn't it?"

Baiyunshan said helplessly: "Let's forget it. I'm used to hearing people call me Baiyunsang every day. You can just follow suit."

"oh."

Akimoto Manatsu could only nod his head without knowing why.

Until now, she still feels a little unfamiliar with the agent in front of her - although he looks pretty good, and his temperament is gentle and lazy. He doesn't seem to be a stern person. He is completely different from the Konno Yoshio she just met.

But after all, this is the first time we meet in real life, so it is normal to feel strange and nervous.

She was not a particularly enthusiastic person to begin with. She was slightly shy of strangers and was not good at taking the initiative to strike up conversations. This time she returned here after half a year, and her inner nervousness was even more indescribable.

Fortunately, she has restrained herself very well. Akimoto Manatsu is a person who has extremely high demands on herself. This return will inevitably be accompanied by pressure and tension. She has already been mentally prepared and understands what she may face when she starts over.

Dilemma. But with the demands she places on herself, it is naturally impossible for her to allow herself to fall here.

As if sensing the subtle emotions in the girl's heart, Baiyunshan pondered and took the initiative to chat: "Qiu Yuan, are there any members you are familiar with here?"

Akimoto Manatsu was stunned for a moment, and then thought: "Ito Marika-san and I met earlier, and I sat together with Wakazuki Yumi-san during the four reviews and the final review."

Baiyunshan nodded clearly, then thought for a while and said: "That's not good. Currently, only the members of the selection team are in the lounge. These two are still members of Under, so they are not here at the moment. Excuse me.

Is there any more?”

Akimoto Manatsu hesitated and said: "Hoshino Minami-chan."

"Hoshino? OK, let her take you to familiarize yourself with the current course later."

Baiyunshan expressed his understanding and took her to the lounge.

There was a slight silence on the way forward. Baiyunshan understood that the girl in front of him could not act familiar when meeting him for the first time, and things like relationships and bonds take time to accumulate slowly, and he couldn't rush it for a while, so he didn't do it.

I plan to get close to him in a hurry and just get along slowly.

As for Akimoto Manatsu, she was a little tangled in her heart. She was a person who had extremely high demands on herself. Of course, she had learned a lot of information in advance before returning and understood the importance of establishing a good relationship with the agent in front of her.

So after hesitating for a while, she took the initiative and said: "Bai... Yunsang."

"Um?"

Baiyunshan turned back to look at her.

"I've watched your show, the most recent one."

"Oh, you're talking about "The God of Musical Instruments", right?"

"Well, I had to prepare for academic issues some time ago, so I was very busy and didn't have time until after school started. I've been catching up on formula programs recently, and I've also watched Baiyun-sang's program."

"How do you feel?"

"It's amazing...really."

"Ah, thank you."

"I'm serious. I didn't mean to say anything nice that went against my will. I really meant it that way!"

As if thinking that Baiyunshan didn't believe what she said, Akimoto Manatsu said quickly.

Baiyunshan stopped, looked at her flatly for a long time, and then nodded: "I know, that's why I say thank you."

Akimoto Manatsu was stunned.

He paused and continued: "Qiu Yuan, you probably don't know me well. My personality is relatively plain. Of course, I can also call it salted fish. It doesn't matter. I won't think anything of it. I usually work with

People don’t like to put on airs when talking, because to me, whether it’s you meeting for the first time, or other members who have known each other for several months, when you step into this place, you are all a member of Nogizaka46

."

"You may not know it well. In fact, I only came here two or three months ago. I'm not much better than you. If you are half a year old, I am probably half a half year old. We are actually the same type of people."

"So I believe what you say."

Seeing the slightly stunned look in the girl's eyes, Bai Yunshan smiled, took out a long-lost lollipop from his pocket and handed it to her.

Akimoto Manatsu stared at the candy in a daze.

Baiyunshan stretched out his hand and motioned for her to take it.

The girl had no choice but to accept it ignorantly.

"Maybe you think it's a little strange, what do I mean by suddenly saying such a long paragraph, but it's not strange at all."

Baiyunshan continued: "I just want to tell you, there is no need to be nervous, there is no need to be panic, and there is no need to be afraid of the unknown future. We are all a group of very gentle people, even if we criticize each other, we will feel guilty, and then

The kind of person who tries his best to build a relationship afterwards."

"So there are many things that need not be said. No matter what kind of Akimoto Manatsu you are, no matter whether you have ever retired from work, when you are here, you are Nogizaka46's Akimoto Manatsu, one of the little idols under me, and a

As a member of the group, you are no different from them."

"You just need to work hard. Dance and vocal music-related courses are still in progress. Just try to learn all the things you haven't caught up with before. Everyone is standing on the same line as you. This line is a straight line.

There is only forward and backward, there is no starting line, so there is no need to worry about whether we are on the same starting line."

"Just be yourself and make up for what you lost, just like tutoring. You should know this better than me. After all, school has just started, right?"

Baiyunshan smiled at her, then came to the door of the lounge, turned the handle, and prepared to push the door open.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to give you a gift when we first met. Is there anything you want?"

Baiyunshan suddenly turned around and asked.

Akimoto Manatsu, who had not yet finished digesting what he said before, opened his mouth, but could not say anything.

Baiyunshan didn't mind. He rubbed his chin and looked at it for a moment. He seemed to show a playful smile and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't think of it. Well... I'll give you a hat. I think it will definitely suit you very well."
