Chapter 87
Not to mention Gojo Satoru, even Hato Kazuma was surrounded by more and more fans asking for photos and autographs for the first time.
The bookstore had become increasingly cramped, and Gojo Satoru and Hato Kazuma were pushed aside, each disappearing into the crowd at opposite ends.
The staff worked hard to maintain order, and the fans were also very restrained, avoiding the bookshelves and counters and not damaging anything.
The boss was beaming with joy.
They don't mind celebrities dropping into their shops and disrupting normal sales—such a surprise visit only happens once, but their shops will definitely become popular spots for fans to visit, and their business will improve as a result.
He'd love to come back more often! Hmm, I'll go get a group photo later, and then frame it on the wall.
The shop had become extremely noisy, with everyone shouting something, trying their best to convey their emotions to their idol.
Many voices were calling out the names of Gojo Satoru and Hato Kazuma, interspersed with words like "like," "love," and "forever," making Gojo Satoru unsure of what to do with his hands and feet.
He had never been surrounded by such enthusiasm before. Every smiling face turned towards him was so lovely, overflowing with warm and sincere emotions, like blooming sunflowers, radiant and passionate, carrying a heart full of pure goodwill.
Since you like them so much, it wouldn't hurt to get their autographs or take a photo with them, right?
Even when encountering the most powerful cursed spirits or curse masters, Gojo Satoru had never felt so nervous; his mind, which had been working all night, was nearly dizzy, his heart was pounding, yet his emotions were running high, filled with a more pleasant sense of elation.
He reached out and took one of the pens.
Then I kept signing in until my hands were sore.
“…”
Gojo Satoru stiffly looked up and found that the line of people waiting for autographs still stretched as far as the eye could see.
No, no, he's already used up three pens of ink. If he keeps writing, he won't even be able to pick up his chopsticks for dinner!
Moreover, Gojo Satoru was silently repeating the process of signing autographs and taking photos on the other side, and the whole set of actions had become somewhat mechanical.
It seems he still has to save this incredibly silly black pineapple from its predicament.
Gojo Satoru shook his head inwardly.
Should we call for a backup supervisor?
But they probably haven't encountered this kind of situation before, so how would they know how to handle it?
Since that's the case, there's nothing we can do but call in a professional for help.
Gojo Satoru quietly activated [no limits], creating a small gap that would allow him to reach for his phone.
"—Tomoya-san, help me!!"
…………
"Hahaha, you guys are something else, actually going out shopping like this, and even going to places where fan clubs go."
Tsuji Tomoya, who immediately pulled Hatake Kazuma and Gojo Satoru out of the crowd with his bodyguards, laughed heartily and patted Gojo Satoru on the shoulder.
"What's the point of wearing sunglasses without a hat? Your sunglasses have long become a fashion item, don't you know that?"
Upon hearing this, Gojo Satoru gasped: "Who would wear sunglasses like mine?"
He always thought these sunglasses were super unique! And they were quite uncommon.
"Super-large."
Tsuji Tomoya spread his hands. "If you have time, go take a stroll around Shibuya and Shinjuku. Now everyone's wearing sunglasses with round lenses like yours."
Gojo Satoru: “…”
Hatori Kazuma: "...cough."
For some reason, I suddenly imagined several beautiful little Satoru walking down the street, unable to see where she was going, and then bumping into lampposts...
Anyway, remember to be careful when you go out in the future, so you don't get surrounded again.
Tsuji Tomoya smiled and reminded them, then bent down and took a magazine out of the car—the very one they had searched for at several stores but couldn't find.
Kazuma Hatori's eyes brightened slightly as he watched the magazine trace an arc in the air before being handed to them.
"You want to buy another copy of this?"
Tomoya Tsukichi said, "That's really unfortunate. The magazine is selling like hotcakes, and even the reprints have long been sold out. This copy I have here is a sample copy sent by Editor Miwa. Here, have it."
These two little guys actually thought they'd be able to buy it in the afternoon, even though it sold out in less than half an hour when it went on sale early in the morning.
The 500,000 copies printed in expedited mode sold out, and they are still printing more in expedited mode.
The magazine staff were overjoyed and were practically popping champagne to celebrate.
"Oh, really? Thank you so much!"
Kazuma Hatori accepted the magazine, which seemed to sparkle in his eyes, with utmost reverence.
This was a precious magazine that he, a somewhat dull otaku, had been surrounded by a dense crowd, had signed for ages, and taken countless photos with, but still couldn't buy...!
"I remember giving you a sample copy before. So you wanted each of you to keep one as a collectible?"
Kazuma Hatori nodded somewhat embarrassedly.
Since there was nothing else to do, Tsutsuji Tomoya got into the car and waved goodbye to them.
"Remember, I'll definitely give you two books next time—by the way, have you guys thought about what to do next? I've received so many invitations that I've lost count!"
"Huh, are they all for us?"
Gojo asked instinctively.
"Yes—future superstars."
Tsuji Tomoya winked at them, laughed, and drove off, leaving the two standing there staring at each other in bewilderment.
“First of all, we have to rule out the actors,” Gojo Satoru muttered. “Putting aside the fact that your acting is terrible, we don’t have time to keep following the crew around…”
They not only have to go to school, but they also have many other tasks to do.
"Release a record?" Kazuma Hatake asked.
Wu is really good at singing; he could even be called a professional. He's at a high level where he could easily release an album.
If he can't sing, you can choose to accompany him on the sidelines—actually, he can play a little guitar, so you can take some more time to practice and then be a mute who only cares about looking cool.
"Wow, I haven't even thought about actually debuting yet."
Gojo Satoru waved his hand, indicating that he had only casually let his thoughts wander following Tsuji Tomoya's words and did not take it seriously.
"Let's put it aside for now, we'll talk about it when we have the chance."
As for this "opportunity," Gojo Satoru wasn't sure exactly when it would be considered a "opportunity."
In short, he hasn't thought about what he would be like if he weren't a sorcerer.
Not to mention becoming a singer or idol, or the "big star" that Tomoya Tsukichi talks about.
The most important thing right now is to figure out where to buy a hat!
His white hair was so conspicuous that even when he stood in a relatively secluded corner, passersby would still recognize him.
Seeing that more fans were about to surround them, Gojo Satoru quickly pulled Hato Kazuma away and ran away.
When Gojo Satoru cautiously opened the forum again that evening, he found that the post "[A chance encounter with Shingo at the bookstore]" had indeed become popular and was marked with a big "hot" tag.
A Chance Encounter with Profound Insight at a Bookstore
1L (Original Poster): Ahhh, look what I photographed! [Group photo][Group photo] This is my family heirloom, waaaaah! I'm going to print out a hundred or so copies, not only to frame them and hang them on the wall, but also to make them into hemp, acrylic pendants, fridge magnets, cardstock...
2L: Ugh, by the time I got the news and rushed over, it was too late! Can any of you ladies share your experience from the scene?
5L: *sobs* I'm so envious...
7L: Can I have one? (crying cat emoji)
8L: Matching outfits, it's definitely matching outfits again! They even wear these matching outfits when they're shopping, how could it be team uniforms? (Old man shakes head.gif)
9L (Original Poster): It wasn't just about taking photos. The sisters who went later probably don't know, but the sister who recognized Shingo was super brave and asked them to kiss her right there. As a result, Shingo got shy, hehehe, and said, "You can't just kiss someone like that."
10L: Hehehe.
11L: Hehehe.
—The group of [hehehe] that followed made Gojo Satoru really want to reply and refute, but fortunately he stopped himself at the crucial moment and resisted the urge to register an account.
Didn't he say he wouldn't kiss her when he got back? Why is he just repeating the first half of his statement?
Damn it! Is there anyone who can defend him?
Gojo Satoru, with a sigh of relief, scrolled down and finally found the follow-up in a bunch of comments like "[I'm totally hooked]", "[It smells so good]", "[I told you it was true]" and "[Hehehe]".
254L: An eyewitness recounted the story, and then the woman chimed in, "Okay, okay, then you can go back and kiss." Xiao Wu then said, "We won't kiss back home." But how should I put it? Explanation is just a cover-up. Sure enough, the first answer revealed the truth more.
Smoking a cigarette, hands shrug, seemingly seeing through the truth. (Image)
256L: The answer that comes out subconsciously reveals the most true feelings, hehehe.
257L: Zhenwu really is real, hehehe.
258L: I knew Satoru would like Kazuma, right? Hehehe.
259L: Hehehe.
Then came another string of "hehehe," completely ignoring his subsequent clarification. Instead, after a psychologist's analysis, it became even stronger evidence proving their love.
Gojo Satoru stared wide-eyed at the blue eyes: "…………"
…………
the next day.
As Kazuma Hatori looked at Satoru Gojo, whose dark circles were even more pronounced, a question mark slowly appeared above his head.
"Were you studying hard last night too...?"
Gojo Satoru stared silently at Hatori Kazuma, who had come to knock on the door to call him to class, before finally speaking softly after a long while.
Hehehe.
Kazuma Hatake: "..."
Kazuma Hatake: "?"
