Chapter 132 Today, someone is indeed leaving, but it will definitely not be me! (3000 words)
The elevator finally stopped on the thirteenth floor.
After stepping out of the elevator, there were countless individual rooms. Junichi and his companion stopped in front of a room in Studio 7.
Knock knock!
As soon as there was a knock on the door, a girl with a name tag around her neck and a notebook in her hand opened the door. She seemed to be an assistant.
"Okay, that's it. Yes, yes, straighten your shoulders and smile!"
Inside the room, the photographer was passionately holding his camera, striking poses from time to time, or even making alluring gestures. His professionalism and dedication even surpassed that of the models.
Then it was just a frantic pressing of the shutter button, shutter, shutter!
Click! Click! Click!
It was so bright it made people dizzy.
"Ogasawara?"
After the door opened, the female assistant was clearly taken aback for a moment, but was quickly brought back to her senses by the photographer's loud voice: "I don't remember you having any scheduled work this morning, why are you here?"
"Excuse me, Ayako-senpai, I noticed it was a bit less crowded over the weekend, so I thought I'd bring a friend to check it out."
Kaori Ogasawara lowered her head and said, half-pleadingly.
At this moment, the female assistant finally noticed the tall and imposing Junichi Se behind him. Especially when she saw his handsome face that took her breath away, her eyes immediately changed.
With this appearance, even if her professional skills are somewhat weak, in today's era where traffic reigns supreme, it's not impossible for her to become a top influencer if she manages things well.
"Yes, of course you can come in." The next second, the female assistant, who had been looking at him with a slightly scrutinizing gaze, smiled and even became a little eager.
"Thank you, Ayako-senpai."
Kaori Ogasawara was overjoyed, not expecting the other party to be so easy to talk to. She bowed, then exchanged a glance with Junichi Se, and pulled him into the photo studio together.
Little did she know that her little gesture caused her female assistant to frown.
However, nothing has been decided yet, so she kept it to herself for the time being.
The two did not attract much attention when they entered the studio, because everyone there was focused on their work.
Although their daily lives are often filled with some quirky actions, their craftsmanship is commendable.
After Ogasawara Kaori quietly explained, Sei Junichi learned that Ogasawara did not have a formal employee contract with this entertainment company. Instead, she worked there as a part-time print model, earning 30,000 yen per day and signing in according to the schedule, with at least 10 shows a month.
Kaori Ogasawara chattered away to Junichi Se, her eyes brimming with unmistakable excitement. She clearly loved her job and seemed to be sending him a signal—this was her new way of life!
Earn your own living?
Perhaps so. In fact, Junichi Sei didn't care too much. What he cared more about was whether this girl could still be defined as a "score-boosting tool" if she lived her own life because of him.
After all, his main target was a "green tea" type of woman, so he felt no guilt about making a move on her.
But reality soon taught Kaori Ogasawara a lesson.
Often, just because you're determined to do something doesn't guarantee success.
As soon as the assistant whispered a few words in the ear of a middle-aged woman in a blue short suit, the woman's expression immediately changed. During the conversation, the two of them frequently looked toward where Junichi Sei was, as if they were discussing something.
However, the communication process seemed to be very unsuccessful, to the point that the female assistant finally came to Junichi and the other person with an embarrassed look on her face.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Mamiya said that outsiders are not allowed to visit during the filming period."
Kaori Ogasawara was stunned.
No, just a moment ago this senior, Ayako, was greeting us with a smile and seemed very polite. Why is she suddenly kicking us out?
Or did Senior Mamiya say something to the other party that caused such a complete change in attitude?
"How about I go wait outside for a while?"
Junichi Sei suggested.
Kaori Ogasawara's expression turned somewhat unpleasant. Although she was a powerless and insignificant outsourced employee, she was well aware of the rules here. The claim that she couldn't bring outsiders to visit was absolutely unfounded.
Previously, other part-time models, some of whom were even female college students, brought their classmates to visit the site. If they got along well and met the requirements, they could even have a few trial shoots.
Although she didn't intend for Se-kun to come here to earn extra money, judging from his looks and Ayako-senpai's reaction when she saw him, she knew that Se-kun's appearance was definitely up to par, or even exceeded expectations.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have walked right into someone's line of fire without any preparation.
Wouldn't that be a slap in her face to drive away her companions, or rather, the people she brought to curry favor with?
Kaori Ogasawara clenched her fists, wanting to just walk away, but when she thought about how she had solemnly told Se-kun that she wanted to change her lifestyle, she ultimately swallowed her humiliation.
If we give up now, then everything will have been meaningless.
And this company, Shindai Entertainment, is the one that offers the highest part-time fee among the several companies in the same industry that I've contacted.
"Sei-kun, I'm so sorry."
Kaori Ogasawara bit her lip, feeling extremely guilty.
Junichi shook his head and walked towards the door.
"I'm sorry, Ogasawara, please come out with me."
Just then, Ayako-senpai, her face ashen, also ordered Ogasawara Kaori to leave.
"What!"
Upon hearing this, Ogasawara Kaori turned pale and even doubted whether she had misheard.
They even wanted to kick me out! After all, I'm a part-time worker here!
The word "outsider" has absolutely nothing to do with them!
"Ayako, don't waste your time."
Just then, the senior, who hadn't said a word from beginning to end and hadn't even bothered to get up, impatiently urged them on, leaving only his arrogant back view, leaving people to speculate.
"Ogasawara, don't make things difficult for me."
A bitter smile appeared on Ayako's lips, indicating that she was also under pressure from the other party.
"Ayako-senpai, what exactly happened? Didn't Mamiya-senpai and I make plans yesterday?"
Kaori Ogasawara was trembling with anger, completely bewildered as to why she was being treated this way.
However, because he didn't have a formal contract, even if he wanted to make a fuss, he wouldn't get anywhere.
Click!
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
Several people were simultaneously drawn to the scene.
When Ogasawara Kaori saw that familiar face, her face turned even paler.
It's Mr. Bentang!
Then, recalling the threatening words the other party had uttered on Mount Akina that day, Kaori Ogasawara immediately had her answer.
It turns out that everything was orchestrated by the other party!
That's right, Hondo Isao is also from Tokyo. He went to Gunma Prefecture before only because of that bet.
But to take revenge on someone as insignificant as myself, isn't that making a mountain out of a molehill?
Such a loss of face did not make Ogasawara Kaori feel proud at all; instead, it gave rise to a sense of sadness from the bottom of her heart.
Even if you know it was the other party who used these tactics, what can an ordinary person like you with no background do? The other party can crush you like an ant with a flick of their finger.
"We really are destined to meet, don't you think, Ms. Ogasawara?"
Hondo Isao looked at the other party with a smile, his face showing a brief moment of surprise, a moment of delight, and more of a mockery of people from the lower class.
Junichi, who had originally wanted to leave but was blocked from leaving, also found himself being coldly glanced at by someone. That vicious gaze, as sinister as a venomous snake, was because he still harbored resentment over the previous Akina Mountain race!
Faced with Hondo Isao's question, Ogasawara Kaori's face turned pale and then red, but in the end it turned into a silent sigh. She took Sei Junichi's hand and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Hondo Isao, who had initially appeared somewhat composed, suddenly darkened his expression: "Isn't it a bit too impolite to leave without saying goodbye when you meet an old friend like this?"
"Or do you, Ms. Ogasawara, believe that your other work in the future will go smoothly?"
Sizzle!
Kaori Ogasawara, who had just taken a step, suddenly stopped, her high heels screeching against the ground, and she was frozen in place.
"I……"
However, just as she was about to speak, she found her palms tightening. When she came to her senses, she found that the tall figure that had been beside her had already walked up to her.
Under the gazes of the people opposite, Sei Junichi slightly raised his chin. His 185-meter height naturally crushed Hondo Isao, who was only 169 cm tall. He sneered as if looking at trash, "Tch, if you can't have it, you resort to force. Your angry and embarrassed look is really disgusting. Hondo, can't you be a little more clever?"
Junichi's sarcasm caused Hondo Isao's face to flush slightly, as if his thoughts had been exposed. He lowered his voice and said hoarsely, "Do you think this is still Gunma Prefecture? Without that woman, Busujima, do you know how easy it would be for me to kill you?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, what a cringey conversation, my cousin. It seems I really overestimated you before."
Junichi covered his forehead with a headache, then shook his head, looking utterly helpless.
"Pfft!"
This scene, however, made Ogasawara Kaori, who was holding back her anger, unable to help but laugh out loud.
The gaze directed at Junichi Se was also flashing with a strange and frenzied light.
That's the feeling. No matter the situation, this man always gives people a sense of composure and ease.
This seemingly innate and powerful self-confidence makes any problem seem insignificant in front of the other person, and the intangible charm it exudes will undoubtedly attract women, including Ogasawara herself.
This led her to her current choice.
"You bastard!"
Having one's woman stolen is already a very shameful thing, and Ogasawara Kaori's laughter at this moment is undoubtedly like stepping on his face and putting it to the ground. Hondo Isao is already furious and embarrassed.
"Gentlemen, if you don't leave soon, I'll have to call security."
At this moment, the silent senior, Shinmiya, finally couldn't sit still any longer and stepped forward to shoo people away.
Seeing this, Ogasawara Kaori subconsciously tensed up, but completely relaxed after Junichi Sei said something.
"Today, someone is indeed leaving, but it's definitely not her, and it won't be me either."
As he spoke, Junichi took out his phone and brazenly pulled out his contacts to make a call.
The call was connected in about three seconds.
"President Okita, if I'm not disturbing you, I would appreciate it if you could come to Studio 7 on the 13th floor of headquarters!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone who had already been drawn in changed color.
Especially that arrogant senior, even his expression froze completely in an instant...
