Chapter 70

———— Speaking of which, I have already signed the contract, and I am very grateful for everyone's support and recommendations. Without your unwavering support, this book wouldn't have been signed so quickly. I really appreciate it. Please feel free to collect and recommend this book; it won't let you down! ————

Kawaguchi Hane heard the murmurs of a few girls and smiled slightly. "Don't be so resistant. I'm doing this for your own good... You don't know how important it is to know a foreign language."

The girls remained silent, knowing they couldn't argue with her. Even if they won this time, who knows what tricks she might come up with to deal with them...

...

In the following week, the filming of "Meteor Butterfly Sword" began to accelerate. The actors gradually became more proficient in the action scenes. Although the production team had prepared stunt doubles, almost no one used them. The oldest among them, Shinichi Chiba, never used a stunt double during the action scenes, and as juniors, they felt even more embarrassed to use them.

Notably, when Tomomi Hara appeared in her male disguise, she immediately dazzled everyone.

The reason was that this girl's male disguise was incredibly cute. Unlike the other three assassins who wore black, Tomomi Hara, playing Shigun, wore a red and black traditional costume with flowing long hair. A rope was tied around her waist, which was her weapon. Coupled with her adorable face, she transformed a cold and ruthless assassin into a rebellious and sunny young boy.

"Wow, so cool... Tomochin..." Nana Komatsu reached out to touch Tomomi Hara's face, but Tomomi gently blocked her hand. "Miss Chou, please be proper... and my name is Shigun."

Tomomi Hara's serious expression and tone did not deter Nana Komatsu; instead, it made her even more playful.

"Hey, little Shigun... You're so young. Can you really kill people?" Nana Komatsu caressed Tomomi Hara's face and whispered in her ear.

Tomomi Hara felt a bit uncomfortable, her face turning bright red.

"Miss Chou, please be proper... Miss Chou... Miss Chou... Damn, you're really pushing it... Nana, are you trying to die?" Tomomi Hara, who had been putting on an act, couldn't keep it up any longer.

"I see you two are full of energy... Today, after you go home, each of you will copy the script a hundred times... Remember, all in kanji." As the two girls were fooling around, Kawaguchi Hane's voice echoed behind them.

Maki Horikita and the others, who were watching from a distance, saw the situation and quickly moved to the side, pointing at the camera, pretending to be very focused on their performance and photography.

"No..." The two girls groaned in unison.

"Ha ha!" The staff and actors on set burst into laughter. They were already used to these girls' antics. With these girls around, the set was less serious and more relaxed and joyful. Even the veteran Shinichi Chiba often protected the girls, and when Kawaguchi Hane wanted to punish them, the old man would often step in to speak up, which only fueled the girls' boldness, especially Tomomi Hara and Nana Komatsu.

By late April, the filming of "Meteor Butterfly Sword" was nearing its end. After the final scene, everyone would part ways.

Even the lively and energetic Tomomi Hara and Nana Komatsu became somber, and the atmosphere on set turned a bit melancholic.

The final scene was the grand finale of the story, where Ryukosai and Xiuer both died in a lonely pavilion, Gao Lao committed suicide in her room, and Meng Xinghun and Sun Die retired together.

Maki Horikita and Kenichi Matsuyama, both highly talented young actors, delivered their performances with great intensity in the final scene.

However, what Kawaguchi Hane was most looking forward to was the confrontation between Mariko Shinoda and Tomomi Hara.

Both were first-time participants in a TV drama, and their performances had been commendable, especially Mariko Shinoda, who portrayed Gao Lao's cruelty, jealousy, and ambition with great depth.

"Action!" Kawaguchi Hane gestured to the two girls.

Mariko Shinoda sat alone in her room, gazing deeply at it and the sword on the table. Her eyes slowly filled with memories of her and the four assassins' childhood.

"None of them will come, will they?" Mariko Shinoda murmured.

She gently pulled out a dagger from her chest.

"None of them will come, really." A self-mocking smile appeared on her face.

At the same time, Tomomi Hara, playing Shigun, entered the scene.

As Mariko Shinoda stabbed the dagger into her abdomen, Tomomi Hara pushed the door open.

"Big Sister..." Tomomi Hara called out loudly.

A look of satisfaction appeared in Mariko Shinoda's eyes.

"At least one came..."

Tomomi Hara gently lifted Mariko Shinoda, but she faced a serious problem: according to the script, Shigun should be sobbing uncontrollably. However, looking at Mariko Shinoda in her arms, she couldn't bring herself to cry.

The others watching from outside also noticed Tomomi Hara's problem, but they couldn't stop the filming.

Mitsuki Hoshino had a sudden idea and found a large whiteboard, writing: "Tomochin, think about all the lines you've copied these days... Do you feel wronged? Do you feel pain?"

Nana Komatsu followed suit, writing: "If you want to write a hundred kanji tonight... then laugh."

Seeing this, Tomomi Hara, whether it was due to Mitsuki Hoshino's method or the awakening of her acting spirit, tears began to flow like a fountain.

"Big Sister... Why? Why?" She tightly embraced Mariko Shinoda.

"You came, and that's enough... You came, and that's good..." Mariko Shinoda's face showed a faint smile.

"Big Sister..." Tomomi Hara cried even harder.
