[Sa! This issue of chat 007 invited two national-level figures. Director, can you give me some tips?]

[One is an actress and the other is a writer. They played a couple in a popular TV series... This is too easy to guess, it's just that the answer to the exam is printed on the test paper]

[Let us welcome this issue's guests, actor Nian Lingna, and writer...]

Listening to the sound of TV echoing in the small apartment, Mai Shiraishi accelerated her hand, put the vegetable salad into a bowl, and squeezed some mayonnaise on it, and finally shrank into the sofa in front of the TV before the show got to the topic.

[…Miss Nengnian, what was it like when you performed a rivalry with Kiyomizu Sang in "Sea Girl"?]

[What kind of performance? Isn’t this the daily routine between them? Miss Nian, is that true?]

On the TV screen, several experienced hosts started to play and stirred up the atmosphere in just a few words. Only Nian Ling shrank her head and waved her hands repeatedly with red cheeks denied.

[It turns out that it's not daily. I thought "The Sea Girl" was all about the content taken by your firm's surveillance camera... So, then, are the two of them playing the role of their true nature?]

【Ah...that...well... Actually, the role of Sang Sakura is still somewhat different from that in reality... right?

[Well, Miss Nengnian is the true character to play?]

【Hey hey! It turns out that Nengnian, you really like Qingshuisan?!】

[I wonder what Miss Nengnian thinks about the society’s call for you and Qingshuisang to get married immediately?]

Although he had been thinking for a while, Nian Lingna's answer might have been easily found by the old hosts. In the blink of an eye, he was forced into the corner by several combos, lowered his head and shrank, looking pitiful and forced by a bad guy.

However, Mai Shiraishi did not feel much sympathy for her, but stopped dinner unconsciously. Her beautiful eyes were staring at the TV screen, wanting to know what answer Nian Lingna could give.

[Ueda Sang, Arita Sang, please do not bully the artists of our firm. Regarding the calls on the Internet, I just want to say one thing: roles are roles, actors are actors, please do not associate actors with roles without authorization. Above.]

[Oh oh! Sang Qingshui is really very boyfriend-friendly. This scene just now... is like a reappearance in "The Sea Girl", right?]

[Well, I'll bully Miss Nengnian for a while. Can Qingshui Sang say those words just now again? Just pretend that I'll watch another episode of "The Sea Girl". It's okay to let me get off my seat, please!]

After Shimizu Tetsu helped to help clear the situation, the hosts were obviously well aware of the reason why they could stop. After making a fuss, they turned the topic in another direction.

Mai Shiraishi, who was tense inside, also breathed a sigh of relief, and inexplicably felt like she had almost stepped on the short side, but she lost the mood to continue dinner for a while.

After a moment of trance, the show on TV went into a new stage that she didn't recognize.

After confirming that the video recorder was working normally, Mai Shiraishi put down her dinner and took out the script she had just brought back to her residence.

It was already October and the weather became colder, but the popularity brought by "Sea Girl" was rising. Not only did Nonian Reina, who played the heroine, but even her supporting role with few scenes, attracted a lot of attention, so she wanted to be the Red and White Song Club at the end of the year as a character in the play.

Coupled with the influence brought by standing in the front row of Nogizaka, Mai Shiraishi has indeed experienced the feeling of greatly increasing popularity. She is no longer the level of being recognized when walking on the street.

What followed was the increasing workload and the confidence of Nogizaka Operation in her development on the road of actors. Now the script in hand is the next task assigned to her by the operation.

"Haijie Diary" is his work...

It has been a long time since I met him last time, but there is no shortage of news about him. For example, I won the Eiji Yoshikawa Literature Award, attended a literary interview program, and published a new book "The Lonely City of Mirror" with the theme of campus bullying...

However, these were all seen from the media, and the direct contact with him was limited to the questions asked in the chat software and the etiquette congratulations, and they were unable to go further.

Speaking of which, the question he asked when he met last time was about what he really wanted...

That day, Shiraishi Mai thought about it for a long time in private, but she still couldn't find a clear answer.

Most of the members of Nogizaka are easy to get along with, and they feel the peace of mind that is as peaceful as at home when they are in it.

However, this is how you feel about members and groups, and it is another matter for your idol’s work.

Concerts, handshakes, program recording...there are just tasks arranged by the operation, and in order to complete these, we have to pay various costs such as lack of sleep and frequent injuries. The only thing that supports ourselves to persevere is the responsibility of being a core member of Nogizaka and the goal of making Nogizaka stand at the highest peak of idols.

But...what after achieving that goal?

Mai Shiraishi unconsciously stared at the script with the words "Haijie Diary" printed on her hand.

Compared with the idol job that focuses on showing oneself, the job of an actor seems to be harder.

Constantly correct postures and movements in front of the mirror, carefully control facial muscles to make various indescribable expressions, and adjust the tone to adapt to different emotions. After each acting class, I become another person.

If an idol creates the most perfect self, then the actor wants to crush himself and put it into a shell set by the screenwriter and director, and become a character who originally only exists on paper from the inside out.

But if you say so, wouldn’t the best actor think of invertebrates like jellyfish, and what they want to become?

Disgusted by his own imagination, Mai Shiraishi shivered and then turned her eyes to the script.

This time my task is to get the role of the heroine Sanjie in the audition. According to the operational explanation, this is an opportunity that Nogisaka only gets if he owe others a favor, so he must do his best to get it.

However... when thinking about the competitors being actresses of Nikaido Tomomi, Natsuki and Mikako, Mai Shiraishi always feels a little lack of confidence.

I raised my head unconsciously, and the program on TV was still going on.

[By the way, why did a writer, Qingshui Sang, appear in a TV series?]

【There was some accident at that time, and I had booked it...】

By the way, the heroine Sanjie has a boyfriend in the setting. If the screenwriter Shimizu could play...

Thoughts flew, Mai Shiraishi accidentally imagined it.

"Ding Dong" Suddenly, a clumsy doorbell imitation sound came from the access control system, "Ma Yi looks like me, open the door quickly."

Come back to his senses from a trance, Mai Shiraishi shook her long hair, subconsciously turned off the TV, stuffed the script to the coffee table in a panic, and then hurriedly scanned the room, not seeing anything missing, and then breathed a sigh of relief and went to open the door.

"Ah, do you miss me?"

"Sha Youli, why are you here at this time?"

"Because I just heard from the agent that you would finish your work early today."

The visitor is Matsumura Satori, the member of Nogizaka who has the best relationship with her. The house they rented is in the same apartment and often visits each other.

Just as he moved out of the position, Satori Matsumura slipped in.

"Mai, you're still having supper."

"Um."

"Let me look... Mayonnaise? No! Mai looks very strange today!"

“Where is it.”

As soon as he said that, Mai Shiraishi suddenly felt guilty.

"It's very suspicious, well, it seems that it's time for my detective Sayu PolyU to come out!"

"Don't flip it around, it's very troublesome to organize."

However, before she could go forward to stop her, Matsumura Satori's eyes lit up and he rushed towards the predetermined target.

"Ah, that..."

"Paddles!" Matsumura held up a book "Mirror's Lonely City" on the bed, looking proud, "Is this Shimizu Toru? Although it's very good, you like Mai too, but you have read it several times and constantly recommend it to fans in your blog. Isn't it really boring?"

"Because it looks very good, it's also a topic of campus bullying," Shiraishi Mai unconsciously pinched her hair on her ears. "And Satori, it's too rude to call her name directly, at least call her Shimizu."

"What does it matter? No one has heard of it anyway."

After turning a few pages casually, Matsumura will put it back in place, "By the way, Mai, you care so much about the name you call him, wouldn't you... like him?"

"How...how is it possible?"

Putting down her hair to block her view, Mai Shiraishi quickly walked to the sofa, picked up the salad and ate several bites before she could barely control the ups and downs of her tone, pretending to be angry and said, "Sha Youli, you don't know, your idol is forbidden to fall in love."

"So what? Anyway, as long as you are not discovered, there is no problem?"

Listening to Matsumura's light words, Mai Shiraishi suddenly paused.

"Will it be fine if you don't get discovered...?"
