Chapter 61

——————I'm very sorry, I was delayed yesterday, this update is to make up for yesterday's chapter——————

Kawaguchi Yuya noticed Aishima Yuki and was slightly taken aback, then smiled and walked over to her.

"Mr. Kawaguchi, hello...." Aishima Yuki bowed deeply to Kawaguchi Yuya.

"It's been a long time... Congratulations on becoming an official member of AKB48..." Kawaguchi Yuya smiled at Aishima Yuki, showing his white teeth.

"Thank you, Mr. Kawaguchi..."

"I heard you transferred to Watanabe Agency..."

Aishima Yuki lowered her head slightly upon hearing this... She didn't know why she couldn't face Kawaguchi Yuya's gaze.

"Yes, Mr. Kawaguchi."

"It's a good choice... Watanabe Agency is more suitable for you than AKS... With your talent, you shouldn't be competing for meager resources with other girls at AKS... Watanabe Agency will allow you to showcase your talent." Kawaguchi Yuya was quite supportive of Aishima Yuki's choice to join Watanabe Agency... although he felt a bit regretful inside...

"By the way, what's the name of your agent?" Kawaguchi Yuya asked.

"Mr. Watanabe Ichiro..." Aishima Yuki's words made Kawaguchi Yuya's calm heart suddenly become agitated, and his usually very composed expression became somewhat unnatural.

"Mr. Kawaguchi... Are you feeling unwell?" Aishima Yuki noticed Kawaguchi Yuya's abnormality.

"It's nothing... I'm going to find Mr. Akimoto... You can go ahead and do your work..."

Aishima Yuki bowed slightly to Kawaguchi Yuya again and watched him leave...

.............................

"What a promising talent... Unfortunately, you will become a competitor to Banno and the others... What a pity..." Kawaguchi Yuya muttered to himself, knowing that he would have to use any means necessary to deal with this girl for the sake of his own artists... The most important reason being that her agent is Watanabe Ichiro!

Kawaguchi Yuya was already very familiar with the AKB48 theater and its related living and office facilities.

After arriving at the entrance to the backstage area, Kawaguchi Yuya explained his purpose to the security personnel... Soon, Togasaki Tomonobu came out with a warm smile.

"What a rare visitor... Mr. Kawaguchi, it's been a long time..."

"It's been a long time, Mr. Togasaki... I wonder if Mr. Akimoto is available?" Kawaguchi Yuya responded with a warm smile.

"He's here... What's up? Are you going to see him now?" Togasaki Tomonobu didn't ask why Kawaguchi Yuya wanted to see Akimoto Masayoshi.

"No, I'll go to the backstage area first... They should have finished their performance... I wonder if I can enter the backstage area?" Kawaguchi Yuya turned to look at Togasaki Tomonobu.

"Of course you can..."

To be honest, the AKB48 backstage area was quite interesting now... After all, there were fewer people, and the members were quite mindful of their image... Of course, there was one exception, and that was Koyama Yuka...

After today's performance, she was sitting alone in a corner of the corridor, shaving her leg hair...

Fukushima Minami, who was sitting next to her, couldn't bear it any longer; "Yuka... I beg you... Can you do it at home?"

Koyama Yuka didn't look up, seriously shaving her leg hair; "What's wrong, Misa... Are you jealous that my skin and figure are better than yours?"

Fukushima Minami looked at Koyama Yuka helplessly; "What if... something happens..."

"What? What if something happens?" Koyama Yuka continued to shave her leg hair, but Togasaki Tomonobu and Kawaguchi Yuya were already standing behind her... Fukushima Minami covered her face with both hands... "This is so embarrassing..."

"Cough, cough..." Togasaki Tomonobu cleared his throat, and Koyama Yuka realized the situation was bad, quickly putting away her razor. She turned around and saw Togasaki Tomonobu with a stern face and Kawaguchi Yuya with a smile... Her face turned bright red instantly...

"Misa, go and call the others out..."

Fukushima Minami immediately fled, leaving Koyama Yuka, who was somewhat at a loss.

"Young people are full of energy..." Kawaguchi Yuya teased, and Koyama Yuka almost buried her head in her stomach. If there were a hole in the ground, she would definitely choose to crawl into it...

Togasaki Tomonobu's face alternated between red and white, looking quite amusing... As they spoke, the other girls rushed out from the dressing room...

"Uncle (Mr. Kawaguchi)..." Banno Tomomi, Hoshino Manami, and Shinoda Mariko saw Kawaguchi Yuya and smiled happily.

Aishima Mai gently nudged her friend Ueno Ichimi and whispered, "Cindy, why don't Mariko and Hoshino call Mr. Kawaguchi 'Uncle'?"

Ueno Ichimi gave Aishima Mai a look, "Why don't you call me 'Grandma'?"

Not far away, Watanabe Shizue, who had sharp ears, couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing Ueno Ichimi's words...

Aishima Mai glared at Ueno Ichimi fiercely and ignored her...

"Everyone... I'm very sorry to disturb your rest..." Kawaguchi Yuya said gently, his smile making the members feel like they were basking in a warm breeze...

"I really enjoy AKB's performances, especially your energy..."

"Then, Mr. Kawaguchi, who is your favorite among us?" Fukushima Minami, seeing Kawaguchi Yuya's friendly attitude, mustered the courage to ask. The other members perked up their ears to listen...

Koyama Yuka had just raised her head and saw Kawaguchi Yuya's playful gaze... She immediately lowered her head in fear...

"I really admire Koyama-san.... Ha... Ha..." Kawaguchi Yuya couldn't help but laugh as he spoke...

Koyama Yuka really wanted to find a block of tofu to bash her head against. Togasaki Tomonobu and Fukushima Minami also felt very embarrassed... They quickly turned their heads to the side, while the other girls looked on in confusion...

"Alright, Tomochin, Hoshino, and Mariko... Come with me to Mr. Akimoto's office..."

Hoshino Manami, Banno Tomomi, and Shinoda Mariko followed Kawaguchi Yuya and Togasaki Tomonobu to Akimoto Masayoshi's office...

The remaining members looked at Koyama Yuka with curiosity...

"What happened?" Aishima Mai asked Koyama Yuka curiously.

When Fukushima Minami recounted what had just happened, the members almost fell over laughing...
