The Wonderful Daily Life of Nogizaka

Chapter 68: The Calm Before the Storm

There's really nothing much to say about rehearsals.

After all, it's not the end yet. On the day of the live, there will be a simple rehearsal before the show starts. Now this experience is just to allow everyone to adapt to the process and ensure that there will be no mistakes on the day.

As for singing, dancing, etc., all CD recordings were played during the rehearsal, and the members were all wearing simple casual clothes during practice, so it was hard to see anything. The only exception was the single solo.

link, but currently Nogizaka46 has released a total of four singles, including the fifth single that has not yet been released, and there is only a certain uncle in the mountains who has a solo song. You can imagine the time it takes -

Therefore, the main purpose is still to focus on the layout of the live stage, changes in lighting, and makeup changes between performances.

Especially the latter, things like live are still very busy. Not only are the idols on stage busy, but the staff off stage are also busy. When the whole thing is running smoothly, it is easy to lose sight of one thing and lose sight of the other. If someone appears,

It would be terrible if you are slow to change clothes, or if two or three people bump into each other because you are in a hurry, or if you go on stage before you have time to put on your clothes, etc., that would be terrible.

Even if this kind of thing doesn't happen, but things like falling down backstage, running wildly on stage alone, walking in such a hurry that I forget to put my phone on my waist... these kinds of things will definitely happen.

Become the dark history of the entire idol career——

Therefore, this part must be rehearsed properly, and there must be no glitches. Doing the basics first, and then asking for better effects to present to the audience is undoubtedly the most appropriate process.

But even so, after completely following the process and clearly understanding the effects and methods Baiyunshan wanted to present, both the idols and the staff at the scene could not help but be amazed.

Fortunately for the little idols, after all, they had learned the relevant information in advance from a certain Hokkaido girl, and they also relayed Baiyunshan's words. Therefore, they were more surprised than happy. They didn't expect to be able to do it so quickly.

Holding a live show in such a situation makes me even more motivated to practice.

Most of the staff were simply surprised, and some even felt puzzled and worried about some of the deliberate arrangements. Fortunately, these opinions disappeared after he personally performed the demonstration on stage, and at the same time, it became even more exciting.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow, the grand scene of the live day——

The rehearsal lasted from noon to evening.

After the show, not only to express gratitude for their hard work during the recent period, but also to enable them to perform at their best tomorrow, amid cheers of mutual appreciation of their hard work, the little idols finally ushered in the success of these days.

A rare break.

"Mai-chan, do you want to go have a late-night snack together later? I remember there is a newly opened barbecue restaurant in Yurakucho, and it looks very good. The time is just right and it hasn't closed yet, do you want to give it a try -

—”

"Forget it, Yuki, I'm so tired today, and it's time for the official live tomorrow, so I'd better go back and rest early."

A certain mayonnaise star weakly declined the invitation from his extended family and friends. He turned to look at the girl next to him and asked: "Senior Misa? What about you?"

"I plan to go back and have a drink, make some side dishes for a midnight snack, and just relax."

Micai Eto replied with a smile, since she attended the coming-of-age ceremony, the girl's love for wine has been completely exposed without any scruples. There are always several kinds of beer and sake in the room, and she often invites other senior members.

The girls drank together. The girls also understood her drinking capacity, and knew that if she just drank a little like this, she wouldn't worry about not being able to get up the next day——

"Um...Maimai?"

"As for me, I kind of want to go have barbecue together—"

Mai Fukawa looked a little hesitant, but she smiled sheepishly and said, "Let's forget it. In fact, I just want to eat, but after thinking about it, I have no appetite anymore. I'd better go home and take a bath early to rest."

"It's indeed a good idea to go home and take a bath...ah~ When I say that, I suddenly want to go home right away. I'm covered in sweat after a long day -"

Shiraishi Mai raised her head and leaned on the back of the seat and sighed in a long voice. She seemed to have thought of something. She turned her head slightly and looked around, only to realize that the sisters in the senior group were fine. Although they were tired now, they still had enough energy to talk and chat.

Let’s discuss the next itinerary together. As most of the girls in the junior group are still growing up, many of them can’t help but doze off on the bus at this time. They are really excited.

Exhausted...

A certain Erika Ikuta, who had always been noisy in the car, found herself in rare peace and quiet at this time. She was leaning on her seat to rest, but accidentally or unintentionally, one of her legs was placed on the seat next to Akimoto Manatsu.

On his knees, they swayed slightly as the bus moved, and the scene looked extremely bold——

Nishino Nanase looked quietly out of the dark window without saying anything. The expression reflected on the car window could not tell whether it was tiredness or something else. Next to her, her eldest relative and friend Saito Yuri was also among those dozing off, with her eyes closed.

Keeping nodding your head makes you worry that you might hit the back of the chair in front of you and break your teeth.

Takayama Ichimi, who has always been in the lively atmosphere, rarely showed an expression that would never appear in front of the camera. But soon this cold expression melted away again, because Maya Wada, who was sitting next to her, slapped her head.

Thinking of something, he quickly asked her for help with his homework, and the two of them started tutoring in a low voice on the slightly quiet bus——

As for the relationship between Tsuki and Sakura, who needless to say, at this time, they were not chatting with each other as usual, but were discussing something in a low voice. Sakurai Reika held the planning book and notebook used for the rehearsal in her hands, and Wakatsuki next to her

Yumi was supplementing the explanation while lowering her head to record something in her notebook. The picture looked very serious.

Compared with the exhausted scene next to him, it makes people sigh with emotion. He is indeed the captain~

Shiraishi Mai nodded happily, feeling proud that her abandoned team had finally regained strength. Then she saw a certain little ancestor, Hoshino Minami, who seemed to be hungry and began to sip the bread he brought from the bag.

...Seeing the corner of her mouth twitching, she hesitated for a while, but still canceled her plan to remind the other party to pay attention to her weight——

After all, Minami-chan has worked hard during this period, and she must have lost a lot of weight. It doesn’t matter if she eats a little, just think of it to relax. After all, tomorrow is live——

But having said that, everyone is so quiet now. Apart from being exhausted after a long day, it really feels like the calm before the storm...

Mai Shiraishi thought this, and when she looked away, she caught a glimpse of a person out of the corner of her eye, and she was suddenly startled.

"By the way, Nanamin...do you have any plans later?"

"Me..."

Hashimoto Nana took off one of her earphones, put her index finger between the slightly closed pages of the book, and after thinking about it, she whispered: "I plan to... go out for a walk later."
