I push the child!

Chapter 69 68. I want to be the child you push
"But."

"Don't waste my time." The man finally said, showing impatience, and walked away.

The sky, which was still hazy just now, suddenly became darker than the deep sea.

The pattering human voice filled my ears like raindrops.

The Honda Civic with its headlights on drove across the road, leaving behind the noise of tires rubbing against the ground.

When the headlights passed by Hoshino Ai's body, she was still standing there.

As if observing the orange sunset that disappeared without knowing when, he looked far away in the direction that the person left.

"But..." she was still muttering.

There should be more words behind, but she didn't make any more sound.

In the flashing neon lights of Ochanomizu and the busy streets, she saw Mai Watanabe, Sanae Takame, and even the injured Ritsuko Ninomiya was still working hard for B Komachi.

Even if you are rejected again and again, this is very common. It is really ridiculous to be knocked down by such a small setback.

She held the card that said "Please come and support us B Komachi!" in her arms, looked down, and then looked back at Taku Makimura who was two meters away.

Mu Cuntuo took off the rabbit headgear on his head, revealing his handsome face soaked in sweat.

He lifted the bangs stuck to his forehead and took a few steps towards Ai Hoshino.

The height difference between the two is really suitable for touching the head.

But Mucun Taku had sweat in his hands, he just walked through the night and looked at the place Hoshino Ai had looked at before.

"That guy, it's such a pity to miss out on the best idol in the world."

The brightly lit Ochanomizu gives people a lively feeling like Tokyo.

The transparent moonlight drifts here, finding no place to stay in this city.

Street performances on the opposite side of the road, newly opened beverage shops with queues like long queues, video game arcades blaring wildly, and animation clips broadcasted in turn on giant billboards above the building.

Such a scene is still not as good-looking as Makimura Taku's profile.

Hoshino Ai looked at him, as if she was admiring a rare treasure she was thinking of, her eyes were as pure as a child's.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Makimura Takumi and members of B Komachi gathered together, and the five returned to the live house.

Everyone collected the simple publicity boards in their hands and put them in the box, and Makimura Taku took off all the doll clothes on his body.

Sweat was dripping from his temples, Hoshino Ai noticed it, and hurriedly pulled a few pieces of paper over, wanting to wipe the sweat for him with her own hands.

"I'll do it myself."

"Let me do it." Ai Hoshino made a soft voice.

Mu Cuntuo was taken aback by her words, looked at her expression patronizingly, and didn't think about anything.

That slightly rosy face was so beautiful that it didn't seem like something that would exist in this world.

"Xiao Ai." Gao Feng Sanmiao interrupted them.

"Yes."

"Let's go backstage and get ready." Gao Feng Sanmiao pointed behind her.

"Okay." Hoshino Ai straightened up, pressed the paper into Mucuntaku's hand, blinked and said, "Then I can leave it to you."

She turned away, her purple hair cascading down like a silky waterfall.

The air was full of her scent of flowers, and the ribbon of the bow fluttered, just like herself.

She always wears that bunny hairpin.

"Take a good rest here." In the dressing room backstage, after putting on makeup with the cosmetics purchased jointly by everyone, Mai Watanabe took Ritsuko Ninomiya's hand and whispered to her.

"Well," Ritsuko Ninomiya nodded, then raised her head to add, "Come on!"

"Absolutely!"

Three meters away from them, Ai Hoshino was arranging her bangs in front of the mirror.

She lifted the long hair around her ears, put it down, then up it again, and finally let it down.

She adjusted the position of the hairpin, then smiled in the mirror, imperfectly.

She smiled again, still not perfect.

She showed her jade-white teeth again, and she finally got better.

This is not a big stage, if you watch it up close, even how much the corners of your mouth is raised has to be carefully polished.

She wants to present the best possible side to everyone, to B Komachi's fans, and most importantly, to Taku Makimura.

Therefore, she must be perfect.

"It's so beautiful, my little love."

"Really?" Hoshino Ai was hesitating whether to wear brighter lipstick.

Strawberry red?Tomato water red?Orange?Which one will Makimura Taku like?
She didn't know why she thought of this, looking at her flushed cheeks in the mirror, the movement of her hands stopped.

At around 20:[-], Gao Feng Sanae greeted the two of them.

The three confirmed each other's attire, Mai Watanabe helped Ai Hoshino zip up the zipper on the back, everyone took a deep breath and let it out slowly.

In exactly 10 minutes, they boarded the small plastic-wood high platform one by one. The narrow space was pitch black, but it created a different kind of mystery.

Behind the curtain that couldn't tell whether it was wax red or black, the girls stood in a row on the stage full of anticipation.

"This time it's our own performance," Gao Sanmiao stood in the middle, "There's no need to compare with anyone, everyone just relax."

The three of them held hands together, Hoshino Ai nodded slightly: "Got it."

"Oh!" Mai Watanabe cheered herself up, "I have to be more serious than last time!"

"That's fine," Gao Sanae smiled and sighed, admiring Watanabe's ability to maintain an energetic look, "Come on as easy as you can."

"Everyone, report the number."

"Report?"

"Well, I always feel that this will be more practical!"

"The second palace hasn't come yet, do you think the three of you will be more at ease." Gao Sanmiao reminded.

Mai Watanabe froze, and smiled again in the next second: "That's right."

The three of them stared at each other and smiled in unison.

Deeper darkness penetrated through the gaps in the curtain, and the performance began.

The stage cloth used to cover the scene automatically slid to the sides, and the three of them lowered their heads slightly and closed their eyes tightly.

The lights flicked on, and the field of vision widened. Everyone raised their heads and blurted out:

"Hi everyone! We are..."

No one uttered the word "B Komachi".

Their expressions froze, as if they had witnessed an unspeakable disaster.

A disaster indeed.There was no one in the auditorium with no seats.

Empty darkness filled the scene, and the cheap stage lights buzzed non-stop.

Even though they were standing under the light, they seemed to have fallen into the darkness.

Even so, Mai Watanabe continued intermittently to the empty auditorium: "Everyone...we...we are B Komachi..."

"Watanabe..." Ai Hoshino passed Gaokao Sanae and looked at her with worried eyes.

"Don't do that." Gao Feng Sanya also said softly to her.

"No one will come at all..."

"Perhaps we should have thought of this result from the beginning." Gao Feng Zaomiao closed her eyes with a headache.

"Hmm." Ai Hoshino didn't know what to say.Nothing is superfluous.She understands how it feels.

"But, but."

Mai Watanabe choked up, she was always full of energy, but now she was crying.

Not even a major failure on a talent show could make her look that way.

She was actually very sad, but at that time someone needed comfort more than her, so she could only laugh.

Now, she has no time to see everyone's reaction, she is really sad, she just wants to cry, just cry a little bit.

She bit her lip, thinking I'm an idiot, a super idiot, why are you crying, I'll forget everything later anyway.

What she doesn't want to remember will one day forget.

"Watanabe..." Ai Hoshino seemed to see herself at a certain moment.

"I'm sorry, what am I doing." She quickly wiped away her tears with her arms, but the snot was about to come out.

"I didn't take the paper to the stage, Watanabe." Gao Gao Sanae smiled as if relieved, and said softly.

"I don't need that thing."

"It's okay, Watanabe." Ai Hoshino took out the paper she didn't use when wiping Mu Cuntaku's sweat, "I brought it."

"Thank you, thank you... Xiao Ai!"

"It's okay." Hoshino Ai showed a healing smile.

People in B Komachi always need to help each other.She looked at Watanabe Mai and thought, this time, I want to be the one to comfort you.

Everyone cleaned up their emotions on the stage, Hoshino Ai suddenly remembered, turned her head and looked down the stage.

She is looking for a figure.

She firmly believes that even if everyone in the world is gone, this place will not be empty, and someone will be there.

With the help of the lights on the stage, Ai Hoshino's eyes moved quickly in the late-night audience.

Not here, not there, not in front, not behind, she must have missed somewhere, she scanned again, still not there, looked again, still not there.

Her heart trembled for a moment. At this moment, the door of the entrance creaked open, and white light crazily poured in.

She stared at Mucuntuo standing there, breaking into her world like the bright spring of April, very much like their meeting that day.

The smile on her face stretched out, it was perfect, the details of the expressions that were studied were useless at all, but it was even better, she was a natural idol.

The door was completely pushed open, and everyone's eyes were completely attracted by the bright light.

Makimura Taku walked in first, followed by others, Teramoto Maki, Nishida Hideki, Koizumi Hanakai.

The last one to come in was a girl Hoshino Ai had never seen before. She was over 1.6 meters tall and was about the same age as Makimura Taku.

Her hair was black and glossy and fell down to her shoulders.

Wearing a simple printed white T-shirt, a pair of black shorts underneath, and white sneakers.

Dressed up neatly, but very good-looking, the girl came in with her hips akimbo.

"Sorry for the delay." Mu Cuntaku walked over and said, "Has the show not started yet?"

"...It's already started." Ai Hoshino stared blankly at the group of people. Some of them were familiar to her, and one even gave her free desserts. "Makimura, these are..."

"Friends? Or acquaintances." Mu Cuntuo paused, "If you insist, they all worked with me."

Yuki Ogura glared at him displeasedly: "This way of introduction really belongs to you, Taku Makimura."

"Is not it?"

"I'm still thinking about who could make you reject me." Ogura Yuki leaned into his ear and said, "You little philanderer!"

The corner of Mucuntuo's mouth twitched: "What are you talking about?"

"Stupid Mucun." She moved away.

Mu Cuntuo ignored it, looked around, and said with some amusement: "Sure enough, it's exactly what I thought."

Watanabe Mai's face still had unwiped tears: "Mukura-kun, did you call these people?"

"No." Makimura Taku denied.

"Don't listen to his nonsense," Nishida Hideki smiled and exposed him, "He begged us for a long time in the group at noon."

"Really?" Ai Hoshino stared at him.

Makimura Taku denied: "Impossible."

"Ah, I'm still talking hard!"

"Although there are some deviations," Teramoto Maki said, "it's probably like this."

"I wanted to come after I was invited." Koizumi Huahai added weakly.

"Makimura-kun, thank you—" Watanabe Mai was about to cry again, but this time it wasn't real.

Gao Feng Sanae shook her head and looked at everyone helplessly.

Ritsuko Ninomiya walked from the side of the stage to the auditorium while leaning on the wall, she didn't say anything, she just smiled.

Ai Hoshino lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

She looked towards Makimura Taku, and Makimura Taku looked into her eyes.

She wanted to say that she was lucky to have you, Mucun, but everyone was here, so she just said thank you.

"Are you Hoshino Ai?" Ogura Yuki looked at her, "I remember you."

"you are?"

"I'm from Takumura, no, I'm the immediate boss of Mucun, the person who can control him at will, my name is Yuki Ogura."

"The manager of that store?"

"To be precise, there are several stores." Makimura Taku said.

"So rich!" Hoshino was speechless.

"It's okay." Ogura Yuxi drooped his hands a few times.

Ai Hoshino asked, "Is Ms. Ogura also interested in underground idols?"

"Miss Ogura...forget it," Ogura Yuki shook his head, "I don't really know much about this, but Mucun insisted on asking me to come, so I had no choice but to come."

She looked at Taku Makimura.

"Lie." Mu Cuntaku was categorical, "I may have invited the other people, but she must have come here uninvited."

"You guy."

"That's it."

"Okay," Ogura Yuki said, "Then I just came to see the show, can't I?"

"Okay, okay." Makimura Takumi smiled.Ogura Yuki's mouth was full of anger.

"Now that the audience is all here," Mai Watanabe shouted, "then, let's start B Komachi's first performance as an underground idol!"

"Are these audiences?" Gao Feng Sanmiao asked uncertainly.

"Okay!" Hoshino Ai was also full of enthusiasm, "Even if there is only one person watching from the audience, B Komachi will never give up!"

"That's it, little love!"

"That's right, Watanabe!"

The two clapped hands in front of Gao Feng Sanae, and Gao Feng Sanae exhaled slowly: "I see."

The show resumes.

"Hi everyone, we are," the three shouted together, "B Komachi!"

Under the auditorium shrouded in darkness, a soft voice came from a corner near the wall: "Oh! B Komachi!!"

It was Ritsuko Ninomiya who started it.

Nishida Hideki then shouted: "B Komachi! B Komachi!"

Everyone looked at him.

"Even if Mucun-kun said it..." Maki Teramoto whispered, "You shouted too hard."

"I really think they're great!"

"Yes, is it?" Teramoto Maki had never chased after a star before, and this kind of slogan was shy and unnatural, but she still shouted, "B, B Komachi!"

"B Komachi, come on!" Koizumi Hanakai's voice was still weak, but she had tried her best.

"B Komachi! B Komachi! B Komachi!" Yuki Ogura shouted, and she glanced at Taku Makimura.

Until the end, even Makimura Takuya began to shout with a hand-made horn: "B Komachi! B Komachi!"

Hoshino Ai smiled, super happy, she had never seen Taku Makimura like this.

I didn't expect that you, who always pretended to be mature, would look like this.

She closed her eyes, but happiness overflowed from the corners of her eyes.

I want to be, the kid you push.pastoral village.

The show has begun.
