The Beautiful Him 2: The Hateful Him

The chain of events triggered by Shile dominated the news headlines from the next day.

From the love affair between a new generation of well-known actresses and national idols, to the case of fanatical fans kidnapping and imprisoning their private partners, with the excessive publicity of gossip magazines and the negative effects of the general development of social media, there have been several days of grand reports. Social issues that are deeply concerned by ordinary people.

Ironically, just because the situation was serious enough to involve crimes, the original criticism of Qing Ju and others subsided instantly.There is nothing wrong with single men and women falling in love, and outsiders should not express blame for it.Public opinion has finally caught up with such a legitimate trend.

This incident made Pingliang worry about it for a long time.Unwilling to be of no help at all, I can only use my fantasy rifle to beat those critics who demean the Qing Dynasty, anchors or comedians who talk nonsense, etc., into a honeycomb one by one.He also listed all the names of the reporters who criticized Qingju in the death notebook in his heart.Vow to hold grudges forever.

Then there is only the question of An Nai's return to the showbiz, this is what Qing Ju said.The matter has become earth-shattering, so it is better to just publicly declare that they are dating Tong Gu, and the brokerage companies of both sides agree on this point.

Originally, it was planned to adopt the traditional method to let Annai and Kiritani hold a press conference together or separately to announce.However, considering that the content of the manifesto may be distorted to various degrees depending on the listener, it is almost inevitable that journalists will ask difficult questions.Thinking about it the other way around, the prohibition of asking questions will lead to protests.

The use of discourse as a medium naturally inevitably leads to misunderstandings.So in the end, verbal expression was simply ruled out, and I decided to succinctly express the facts in the form of a photo without words.The platform selects fashion magazines that are popular among women, and recruits top-notch photographers and stylists.

【Mr. Noguchi decided to take the photo shoot for Annai and Kiritani? 】

During the dinner that day, Qing Ju asked him this question as soon as he sat down.

【Mr. Noguchi was reluctant at first, because after all, the responsibility is heavy.I will also assist as an assistant]

[Hey, isn't there a chief assistant? 】

【I seem to be the only one participating this time】

Kata obviously had time, but Noguchi deliberately asked Hira to assist in the filming.Hirara didn't understand the reason, and Kada mockingly said "As expected of the teacher's cherished disciple"

【...Hmmm, you are alone】

Qingju's brows seemed to come together.

【Mr. Noguchi seems to take special care of you】

At the end of the sentence, he added a glance with ulterior motives.Noguchi-san did value himself, but it would be foolish to think that he was being treated special.Pingliang is very grateful for the fact that a mere student can receive this treatment, but at the same time, he feels untenable because he can't figure out the reason.The taciturn and gloomy childhood experience made Pingliang very clear that he is definitely not the type who can be loved by teachers or seniors.

【Could it be playing your mind】

[What idea? 】

[Is it possible that he is gay? 】

Pingliang couldn't help being dumbfounded.Still worrying about how to deal with such an unexpected speech, Kiyoi quickly said [It should not be so good. 】End guesswork.But I still can't help reminding [if something happens, you still have to be careful]

【Be careful of what? 】

【For example, don't be alone at night】

【I'm not a girl】

Can't help laughing at his naive speech, but Qingju then warned with a straight face [Anyway, you just have to be careful. 】Pingliang obediently nodded in agreement.No matter how unreasonable it sounds, Qingju's instructions must be obeyed.

【By the way, did something happen over there in Qingju? 】

With such a casual question, Qingju's expression changed suddenly.

In fact, I have been looking for the right time to ask.

Qingju was in a very good mood when he came home today.He has always been very calm, even if something good happens, he still has the same poker face, but it will be revealed through some small actions.

For example, when Hirara was making dinner, he came over to ask about today's dishes (Qingju usually never asks about the dishes), and helped arrange chopsticks and water glasses on the table (Qingju usually never helped), and sat at the table early and waited for the food (Qingju Usually roll around on the sofa until Pira calls him).All in all, it is different from usual, and it feels like something good happened.However, if Hirara asked questions with interest, Kiyoi would make a farewell (bie).Therefore, it is necessary to pretend to mention it naturally.

【It's okay】

Qingju responded indifferently.At this time, you must pretend that you made a mistake and change the subject immediately.After eating and drinking tea, Qingju let out a breath before speaking...

【The most important thing is to confirm that I will participate in Mr. Ueda's stage play next year】

God ----!Secretly cheered hard.The corners of Qingju's mouth raised slightly.A wonderful mixture of joy and ego, showing his expression in a very good mood.

【Mr. Ueda is the drama director that Kiyoi likes very much】

【yes.A while ago, Mr. Ueda took the initiative to contact the president, and went to participate in the selection today]

Pingliang knew that Kiyoju had challenged the role selection of that person's works many times.It has been unsuccessful before, but this time it finally has a good result.As expected of Qingju, it should be said that the director finally understood the charm of Qingju.It's a bit late, but it's better than never getting it.

[It’s hard to say that I was recruited at first because of the topicality brought about by the commotion last time]

This made Ping Liang angry.That director must have been too rude.Immediately add that person's name to the Death Note engraved in his heart.However, Qing Ju said frankly that this kind of thing often happens.

[No matter how many and good actors gather, no matter how high the quality of the work is, if there is no box office, there will be no next work.Stage scripts are a type of work that is difficult to attract people to pay for, and there are many cases where topics are selected for casting.Stage plays that prioritize topicality may still account for the majority]

I am not familiar with the practice of the industry, but I still feel that this is not the treatment that Qingju should enjoy.

[But I can't accept it very well, I'm still a little angry.However, it is good to know that my acting skills are not expected at all.It was very open during the election today]

After the selection was over, Ueda overtook Qingju with great momentum.He praised Qingju's interpretation perfectly close to the character, then lowered his voice and said that, in fact, this violated the regulations, but he had already decided to let Qingju play the role, and begged Qingju to spare the time schedule first.

【Amazing.It is worthy of Qingju.really amazing]

Although it is super touching, why is the spoken vocabulary (original: vocabulary) always so scarce.

[Many great actors say that they occasionally feel like their characters are on their bodies.It's like being possessed and also like an inspiration, it's really powerful.A mortal like me can't imagine it at all]

Unexpectedly, Qing Ju had a complex expression on his face.

【Most real weirdos think they are ordinary people】

【what? 】

[The shackles that ordinary people have to work hard to get rid of, you seem to get used to it and often break free]

Tilting his head to show that he didn't understand, Qingju stared at the empty wall instead.

[After being read by An Nai, I have been thinking about it.What to do to free yourself.I thought I couldn't do it.Now you can probably master the method of escape.Had a great time today.It’s like being drunk, it’s the first time I’m so ecstatic]

Still can't understand Qingju's words.But it's not about trying to figure it out.Qing Ju is a genius and the supreme king, it is normal that he can't understand.So Hirara just stared deeply at Kiyoi in front of him.The excitement he felt during the day seemed to be reproduced, and the corners of his eyes were slightly red.

【Probably, it's all thanks to you】

Even so, Qingju still didn't look this way.Look into your own heart alone.

[The face is full of tears, runny nose, and nosebleeds, with a broken expression.I put on such an embarrassing look in front of everyone.As long as I recall the scene at that time, I no longer feel ashamed or afraid.]

[Is it the last time? 】

Qingju suddenly returned to his senses and looked at this side.

【At that time you passed out, so it has nothing to do with you】

【....ah.Well, too]

Nodding ambiguously, he secretly recalled the commotion.

Qing Ju didn't seem to notice it, but in fact, he had slowly regained consciousness at that time.As if separated by a thin water film, Qingju's voice seemed to come from afar.Never heard Qingju make such a sad tone.Knowing that Qingju is crying but still can't believe it.But that was the truth, Qingju cried and called out his name.Pingliang, Pingliang, again and again.

---I have to get up quickly.

First thought of the moment.Kiyoju shouted out, no matter what situation he was in, he had to respond.Qingju's voice pulled up his consciousness that was constantly sinking into the abyss.

Gathering the little strength left, he slowly opened his eyes.

Qingju's helpless face covered with tears and snot immediately came into view.

Not beautiful at all.

But I feel beautiful as hell.

How much I want to use photos to preserve that moment of Qingju.Naturally, this wish did not come true, because the eyes quickly turned dark and the vision was blocked.The weeping face of Qingju that he saw in just a split second was more vividly imprinted on his retina.

The longer she spent with Kiyomi, the more her fear of loss swelled.Scared now too.However, as long as you still have that crying face in your heart, you can go on even if you lose Qingju.It was his own clear residence.

【What are you thinking with your intoxicated face? 】

Pulling back Piaoyuan's consciousness, he questioned Shangqingju with a frown.

【fine】

Qingju definitely didn't want to know that Pingliang had seen Qingju like that.

However, Qingju's expression became more and more serious.

【...You...wouldn't have woken up then? 】

Blinking subconsciously, it was directly regarded as an affirmative answer.

I saw Qingju's face slowly turning red.Then the ears and neck.Incredibly, it turns out that human beings can even turn their fingertips red.Reaching almost instinctively for the camera on the chair next door.

【No shooting!Fool! 】

Qingju stood up and hid in the bedroom as if running away.Pingliang hurriedly chased after him.

【Qingju, wait a minute】

【No cameras allowed】

【Feel sorry.I don't shoot]

[Stop talking nonsense!go there! 】

The bedroom door was slammed shut in front of Hirara's nose.

Starting that night, Qingju refused to talk to himself for two whole days.

On this day, Annai and Kiritani participated in the photography work together under strict alert.

Surprisingly, Naho's home was chosen as the shooting location.Because this place provided Annai with shelter during her most painful period, and encouraged Annai with a warm home atmosphere.So taking pictures here might help Annai relax a bit.This was the idea of ​​the president of Qingju's agency.

Although it was a rather abrupt request, Naho readily agreed.She was already good at caring for others and full of service spirit.On that day, they even prepared simple snacks and drinks made by themselves for the staff.I can't help but sigh secretly, maybe it takes such a degree to be qualified for the post of wife of a politician.

Filming started early in the morning.The hairstyle and clothing are kept casual, which is closest to the usual private appearance, and the amount of lighting is also kept to a minimum.In an environment close to natural light, the theme is the side shot of lovers spending ordinary holiday time together, and the shooting is carried out in stages.

A well-maintained Japanese-style house with a long history.Anna and Kiritani were cooking breakfast together standing in a kitchen that exudes a sense of age and nostalgia.Facing two people having breakfast at the table.At first, both of them were very nervous, but when they finished their breakfast and stood side by side to wash the dishes, they finally showed soft smiles.

【Kiritani, when you wash the dishes, you have to wash your ass too】

Annai's words were mixed with the sound of the water, Kiritani turned his gaze to the area around Annai's waist and asked 【Butt? 】

[The ass of the plate.where are you looking 】

[Do plates have butts too? 】

【Yes, I have.I can't believe you've lived like this for 28 years]

The conversations of young lovers seem to be seen everywhere, making the surrounding staff squint their eyes with emotion.The sound of plates clinking against each other and the sound of water from a tap.This is probably how it feels when we get along with each other normally.The expressions on both sides are very relaxed, which can never be seen through the big screen or TV screen.

The time came to the afternoon, and the staff entered the lunch break.While the others were going to eat at the family restaurant in front of the station, Hirara was invited by Noguchi to a soba noodle shop in a residential area.

[After the break is over, you can also take a test shot]

While slurping soba noodles, Noguchi suggested it as if it didn't matter.

[What to shoot? 】

【Of course it's Anna and Kiritani】

Thought it was another usual joke.Feel free to answer 【Oh~~ that's fine too】

[I'm serious.Both Annai and Kiritani's agency agreed.This job is based on the condition of giving you the opportunity to shoot.Of course I don’t know if it will work]

what does that mean?Hirao was deeply confused.It is very unusual to have already obtained the permission of the brokerage company to take this job on the condition of it.I feel that Noguchi has always been kind to me, but this practice has gone beyond the influence of the relationship between master and apprentice.Could it be... Hirao opened his eyes wide.

【...Are you really gay? 】

【What? 】

【Mr. Noguchi doesn’t want to chase me, does he? 】

Noguchi looked surprised, then kicked Hirara under the table and choked [Don't be stupid] Hirara felt relieved.Noguchi took something out of his bag.It is a photo album.And very old.Noguchi pushed the photo album over and felt inexplicably nervous when he opened it.

【...ah】

I lost my sense of tension in an instant, because I saw a very familiar scene.

Scenery of the city center.But pull all silhouettes from it.There was no driver in the long line of cars.There were no babies in the prams advancing on the sidewalk, and there were no people pushing them.It was like a world that was bleached after being punished for doing anything reckless enough to anger the gods.

It's a picture of myself.But I don't remember taking pictures of these scenes.Clever imitation?wrong.The degree of completion is obviously higher than myself.This, is it possible...

[Like it? 】

He raised his head and met Noguchi's eyes.

【It's just that my technique is much better than yours】

Smiling proudly.It is indeed Noguchi's work.Files are dated.more than ten years ago.It is a work that Noguchi took when he was about the same age as himself now.

[When I was young, I once aimed for the Kimura Ihei Award]

Hirao couldn't help blinking at the sudden confession.

【Just like you】

【Uh, that, how can I be qualified...】

It's just following the trend and stepping on the road of becoming a professional photographer without knowing why. In fact, I haven't prepared myself psychologically at all.Not to mention such a terrific prize----

[But I didn't get it, so I fell into this situation]

Noguchi ignored Hirara's arguments and answered the conversation himself.

【I don't think it's a fall】

【Maybe】 Noguchi took a sip of soba noodles after answering this.

[When I saw the photo of you participating in the photography award, I thought it was the leak of my previous works, and I was so anxious to death.But it soon became apparent that was not the case.Because the skills are much worse than mine.I would not use such a lazy shooting method.Then I want to say that this person dares to imitate me with such poor skills, I am very angry]

He sucked up the buckwheat noodles to vent his anger, and the sauce sprayed all over the head.

【Then the jury chairman in his sixties made an opinion that it was not like a student’s work. I immediately agreed and said that this kind of work is no different from rubbish.I thought to myself, it deserves it, the first stage was wiped out]

Pingliang couldn't help being stunned.

【Completely different from what you said before】

[Do you think everyone has a way to talk about their embarrassing past? 】

The attitude is extremely dignified and natural, not like he is conscious of doing something embarrassing to himself.

[But I immediately reflected on it.Unfortunately, it was too late to save at that time.Later, I saw your name in the list of photography lectures hosted by O University, and I wanted to give you some pointers as compensation.Otherwise, who would pick up the lecturer job for students, I'm in trouble]

【But... I don't remember receiving your advice】

[Yes, because work was delayed that day, and a large number of childish amateur photos were downloaded and deleted.As a result, the most important thing is that you did not send it]

【That is to say, what I heard about Mr. Noguchi’s kind motives before is a lie】

[That's not what I want to talk about]

【sorry.It’s just too much contrast]

[Do you know what is truth and superficial words? 】

【clear】

【That's what happened】

The haughty attitude recalls Noguchi who never apologized that day.

【So I had no choice but to call the president of O University Photography Club and find you.My first impression of you was disgusting.The behavior is timid, and the speech does not look people in the eye.Thinking that such a person actually shoots a work with a style similar to mine makes me even more angry]

Noguchi took a deep breath for a pause.

【I want to keep you by my hand no matter what】

Pingliang couldn't help frowning.Did you skip a lot just now?

【sorry.I don't quite understand]

【People always love themselves the most】

【....oh】

[After growing up, even the failure and ignorance of myself when I was young looks cute]

A feeling that I can't understand when I live a life full of failures and ignorance in the present progressive tense.

[15 years after the dream was broken.After such a long period of time, the apprentices who led the photography of works similar to those of his youth won the honor of Kimura Ihei Award.Isn't that very romantic? 】

【I still don't understand】

[That's right.Romance in everyone's heart requires a certain degree of maturity.When you win the prize, maybe someone will remember that Noguchi has taken similar photos before.Then my old works were dug up, and everyone was surprised to say that they did not expect such a work to appear 15 years ago.While showing the incompetence of the reviewers back then, my old works have regained their value.It is simply a model of romance]

【Right】

[So when accepting the award-winning interview, remember to say that it is my credit]

【What? 】

【Thanks to Noguchi-sensei Daikai, I have been able to get to this point.If Mr. Noguchi did not see my potential, I would not be where I am today.It's all thanks to the teacher. 】

Noguchi smiled and asked, but he was dissatisfied in the end.I can roughly understand his mood, but I can't accept that my life is occupied by others, just for his selfish nostalgia.

【Don't be so unhappy】

[I want to.Please don't occupy important scenes in other people's lives without authorization]

In the end, Noguchi was surprised.

[I thought your complaint would be, please don't make such excessive demands on students]

【what? 】

【How can you say you are qualified, but in the end you are still imagining the scene of yourself standing on the podium】

My mind instantly went blank.

【..........ah.............】

The moment of understanding, the whole face became hot.

Noguchi snickered admiring Hira's reaction.

[No, I mean, that...]

【I see you, you probably have to start by admitting your own desires before you take the first step】

From the bottom of my heart, if I feel that I can't do it, there is no need to be unhappy, and I can take it as a joke.I seriously thought about that future.Pack yourself with humility, but deep down you harbor unfounded confidence.This side of myself was completely pulled into the sun.

Similar to the feeling after being maliciously slapped.It was really frustrating when I lost the first stage of the photography award.I lost the election, but that guy passed. How could that guy's photo be better than mine?At that time, the jealousy of the club members was also [such a thing].

【... Mr. Noguchi is too much】

Hirara looked at Noguchi with a look on the verge of tears.

[Find a way to get over it.Every grown-up has been humiliated at one time]

Facing Hirao's tormented appearance as if the top of his head was about to smoke, Noguchi suddenly narrowed his eyes and said...

【Thank you very much for being lucky enough to meet such a caring master】

The narrow smile is mixed with a bit of bitterness, which makes it more and more unclear which ones are jokes and which ones are the truth.At least he understood that Noguchi was serious about taking care of himself like this.This is what I am grateful for right now.

【...Please take care of me in the future】

Pingliang bowed his head to express his opinion.

[En En.Do it well]

Noguchi nodded in response.Ping Liang finally had a clear understanding.This person is my master, and I will learn all kinds of things under this person from now on.

[Worried that An Nai would be nervous, the president asked me to come over and show my face]

Qingju pointed to the ice cream that he had bought as a snack for visiting the group.

[Pirara, do you still have time to chat over there?Get your camera ready]

[Own camera? 】

Seeing Kiyoi's doubts, Noguchi smiled triumphantly.

【Maybe today will be the day when this guy makes his official debut】

[Hey, do you want to shoot? 】

It was rare for Qing Ju to be so surprised. [Really amazing] For a moment after speaking, he showed a lonely expression.Although he was a little concerned, he was urged by Noguchi to push him to the guest room where the equipment was already set up.Qing Ju followed behind.

[How to arrange the light?Today's weather...no, forget it, anyway, let's shoot whatever you want]

Seeing Hirara take out the camera from the bag, Noguchi stopped speaking.I told Hirara to bring my camera here today, but I didn't understand Noguchi's intention until now.

But understanding and implementing are two different things.

Faced with such an extraordinary opportunity, the emotional indicator remained silent.

【Hey, don't be so nervous.Photos you take may or may not be published.This photo is also an important key for Annai and Kiritani, and they will definitely be selected strictly. I guess 90.00% of your photos will not be selected.Anyway, you can't take better photos than me, so feel free to play as cannon fodder.As accumulated experience]

The words mixed with jokes, it can be heard that they want Hirara to relax.

[No, I think...not that question]

[Otherwise, what is the problem, tell me and listen]

【that is....】

Facing the perfect opportunity that most people would kneel down to ask for it, he was about to give a very stupid reason for rejecting it.Likely to be cussed [just kidding] and kicked out.The precious master-student relationship may also be destroyed as a result.But this matter is similar to the contract of the soul for him, and he absolutely cannot back down.

[Pira, time is limited.Say it quickly]

Noguchi was irritated and urged, so he clenched his fists and spoke.

[In terms of people photography, I don’t want to shoot anyone but a certain person]

【What? 】Noguchi frowned in displeasure.

[Yes, sorry.But, that's it]

---I see you, you probably have to start by admitting your desire before you can take the first step.

Makes sense.That must be the case, so make up your mind.

[In terms of portrait photography, the only thing I want to shoot now is Qingju]

Noguchi was stunned, and Kiyoi made a [stupid] mouth shape, probably wanting to scold [stupid].

【......sorry】

I bow deeply and apologize.Take good care of people like yourself and create great opportunities for yourself, but you trample on his face in public.Bad enough.But I really can't feel any emotion to do it, and I can't control it.

-----After growing up, even the self who was full of failures and ignorance in his youth seemed cute.

Is that really the case?Is it the same even if I am so unresponsive, so stupid that everyone knows and is arrogant?

【You are really...】

Hearing Noguchi's weak whisper, Hirao raised his head tremblingly.Noguchi, who expected to get angry, only had a strange expression on his face.It's like trying to suppress the urge to laugh at any time.

[What are you kidding! 】

As a result, Qingju roared loudly.

[Let's excuse me for a moment.Let me talk to this guy. 】

Qingju pushed Pingliang hard and drove him out of the room.

【Hey, wait a minute, Qingju? 】

【It will be ready soon】

Qingju slammed the sliding door shut.He blamed Pingliang in a low voice.

【How stupid are you?Don't understand what an opportunity this is? 】

[メ, I, I understand, but I just can't do it.I can’t take pictures of people outside of Qingju]

Qing Ju's brows couldn't get any deeper.

【What's the reason?Didn't you tell Mr. Noguchi last time that you have nothing you want to shoot?So you don't really want to shoot me that much, do you? 】

Qingju's words made Pingliang recalled again and did not pursue it again, but it was the fuse that caused the separation.

【...I, I really want to shoot.In fact, what I want to shoot most is Qingju]

whispered timidly.From the day they first met, Qingju had already taken everything away from him.The only thing I want to photograph is Qingju.He didn't want to do anything but live in peace.But it cannot be stated that way.Because that claim is like a high wall that rises to the sky.

【... At the beginning, just looking at it is very satisfying】

Go on timidly.Originally, I was satisfied just looking at it, but after dating and becoming a lover, my expectations became higher and higher unconsciously.The desire to continue to grow beyond one's self-control makes oneself afraid.The fear of reaching out and grabbing the untouchable star kills its light.

【F-Furthermore, Mr. Noguchi asked about [what you want to shoot professionally]. Compared with professional photographers, I don’t have the confidence to shoot the most beautiful Kiyoi, and I don’t have the skills】

How could the noble king, whose beauty surpasses all, be soiled by his own hands.After the stutterer explained this, Kiyoju's expression became super scary, almost like a ghost.

【You... bastard, megalomaniac! 】

The shin bone was kicked hard, and Hirao cried out in pain.

[What kind of self-righteous theory is this, do you know how I felt at that time? 】

【I have no idea.I won't try to guess Qing Ju's heart ---]

【Guess for me! 】

【what? 】

Anger, resentment, reluctance, eyes mixed with all emotions made him stiffen.

have no idea.I do not know.How can a small stone attached to the ground know the mood of the stars in the night sky.But for the first time, I had the idea that it shouldn't be like this.It's rare for Kiyoshi to divulge as much emotion as this.Now that Qingju gave the order, he must try his best to do it.

Like a caterpillar forced to accept the process of eclosion, its protective shell is being peeled off piece by piece.It hurts, it's scary.However, this is also proof that he has escaped from the chrysalis stage.

【...Qingju, sorry】

Just when he was about to hug Qingju.

[Sorry to disturb your good deeds]

Turning around in shock, Noguchi was peeping through the slightly opened paper door.Immediately returning to his senses and jumping away from Kiyoi, Noguchi walked in with a snickering smile.

[Oh, it turns out that's the case.You two are in this relationship.Sorry to interrupt your love drama, just wanted to say that it's almost time to start filming]

Hirara stepped in front of Kiyoi and bowed to salute.

[Yes, sorry.I will prepare immediately]

I hurriedly wanted to leave the room but was called to stop again.

【It's you who want to shoot.camera with]

【Huh?But, but I just said...]

[I heard it, I'm really tired of hearing it.Is it necessary for such an idiot to be exactly like me? 】

【what? 】

【I mean, there is another idiot like you who lost a great opportunity because of being too reserved】

【Mr. Noguchi too? 】

Noguchi looked helpless and sighed.

【Master and apprentice are both idiots and stubborn mixed fruit juice.The decisive difference is that I don't have a master like me, but you have me.You are really lucky]

Briefly passing the story, Noguchi turned to Kiyoi.

【That's how things are, so I trouble Kiyomi to be on standby too】

【I? 】

【During the big love drama between the two of you, we also made a lot of adjustments.Temporary placement of Qingju single person An Nai and their friend roles, and take photos of the three of them.In this way, the suspicion of stepping on two boats can be completely wiped out.By the way, Pingliang's wish was realized.Prepare as soon as possible]

Hirao, who was pale due to the rapid changes in the situation, and Kiyoi nodded in understanding.

【The heart is strong】

Kiyoi raised his thumb in response to the smiling Noguchi.This sight forced Hirara into a cold sweat.Ruined.This is a battle between God and God.I am not qualified to intervene.But Noguchi threw down a sentence [Move quickly! 】He went back to the scene ruthlessly, and Hirao's anxiety rose to the highest point.

[く, Qing, Qing Ju, so suddenly, I can't do it]

【how come?You took pictures of me from high school to now]

【Because it was a private side shot】

[Whether in private or at work, I am who I am]

I can understand.Qingju is like this.Unaffected by the surrounding environment, but myself--

【But, but, but...】

The words were knotted, and the cold sweat grew more and more.

[Less verbosity.Don't talk so much nonsense to me]

Face to face with Qingju glaring at him, all the embarrassing and frustrating words froze in his throat.

【Are you trying to disobey me? 】

How can it be.Absolutely not.He shook his head vigorously in response.

[As a boyfriend, I still don't have the guts to say that I can take pictures of the most beautiful me? 】

Qingju raised his chin and stared over with extreme displeasure.

----Ah, this appearance is so beautiful.

Slender eyes with sharp corners, long eyelashes, thin and beautifully shaped lips.

The clothes on his chest were suddenly tightly grasped, as if the strength to strangle him on the spot was unbearable.

[...I...I'm afraid]

Pushed to the limit, words slowly flowed out from the body.

【...I'm afraid.I want to shoot, Qingju]

Hearing the announcement in a trembling tone, Qingju nodded in satisfaction.

【If you don’t make me more beautiful than Mr. Noguchi’s, you’re screwed】

Leaving aside his indifferent glance, he turned his back.After watching the slender figure leave, he desperately supported his weak knees.How much I want to lie down on the ground and kiss the corridor floor that Qingju trampled on.

However, I have a more important mission.It must be done immediately.

Isolated.At a loss.But the king's order cannot be questioned.

---Use my lens to shoot the most beautiful Qingju.

It's time to draw the sword in your waist.There is no last stand.Trembling, quietly, and with a brave heart, I took out the camera from the bag.

Surrounded by many staff members, the hand holding the camera was still shaking.Everyone has long known through rumors that they are Mr. Noguchi's cherished disciples.Curiosity and a little bit of evil-mindedness that wanted to witness his strength turned into scrutinizing eyes and gathered on himself.Heart beating violently nervously.

Anna, Kiritani, and Kiyoi were in front of her line of sight.

Just stood aside and practiced Noguchi's camera.The staff, Annai and others, and even Noguchi himself seemed quite relaxed.Think you can do it.However, when it was my turn to go on stage, I found that the overwhelming sense of presence of the models almost swallowed me.

Never thought about it.It turns out that professional photographers take pictures under such pressure.And it must not be noticed by the people around you, and you have to use words instead of the subjects to cultivate feelings.It's amazing.

【Pingliang】

Noguchi whispered a reminder from behind.Everyone is waiting.

【...Then, I'm going to take a picture】

A trembling voice announced the start of filming.Both Annai and Kiritani showed worried expressions.Worst first step ever.It made the model so nervous.Move your stiff limbs, set up your camera.

When you put on the camera, your line of sight seems to be attracted, and a picture is instantly captured with Qingju as the center.

Compared to the other two who were full of worries, Qing Ju looked at the air calmly.

---Ah, it's Kiyoju.

In the classrooms in spring, in the corridors cast by the sun in summer, in the classrooms dyed red by the sunset after school, I secretly appreciate the Qingju all the time.It's still the Qingju.That beautiful side face has saved me countless times so far.

Every time I face Qingju, I will be pulled back to the state of mind when I was 17 years old.

Now they are lovers, can kiss, and even have physical intercourse.

But no matter how close the contact is, there is a distance that will always exist.

The imagining of some indefeasible power grabbing at the base of my neck and forcing myself to kneel and surrender brought a shuddering pleasure.

Looking at Qingju through the lens, my heart is turbulent.

A different type of high-spirited emotion from the tense feeling just now gradually swallowed me up.

With the first shutter sound, plunge into the world of Qingju.

The teaser for the upcoming publication of Annai and Kiritani's color photos received a warm response.The magazine was sold out during the pre-order stage, and it was decided to reprint before it hit the shelves.A large number of interview invitations poured into the brokerage companies on both sides, but they only released official news for everyone to see the photos directly.Naturally, the expectations of the public have been raised even more.

【Why does the company have to instigate so much, I'm so stressed that I don't have any appetite】

Noguchi complained so much,
