Chapter 126 Stuntman
Chapter 126 Stuntman
"Next, the group led by entertainer Asuka will present..."
"Boss, Hanahoko will be performing tomorrow."
"action!"
Yu Shiraishi and Hiro Nakajima still overcomplicated things. Just hearing Asuka's name made Kuroda eager to issue orders.
Of course, his subordinates were quite dedicated. After the person in charge of monitoring spotted Asuka, he quickly reported it, which further supported Kuroda's decisiveness.
The subordinates in the audience received orders and pressed their hands on the buttons of the high-powered flashlights, eager to use them.
Hmph, being hit by this bright light for even a moment would probably make you dizzy and lose your balance.
I know the audience too well; they'll only remember how you fell to the ground in a sorry state, they won't care what happened.
Kenjiro Endo was also released, like a fierce dog unleashed from its cage, waiting to tear apart its prey.
"Ugh, this smell of alcohol is overwhelming."
Even though Kenjiro didn't drink alcohol because of Kuroda's request, he still smelled of sake lees and dried radish.
It's already marinated in; there's nothing you can do about it.
Hmph, by ruining my precious daughter's performance, I can gamble away several more shows!
Who would have thought that you, a money-losing item, could become a little cash cow!
Why don't we have another one with that woman? Even though she's crazy, she should still be able to get pregnant, right?
I don't know if his family will return it to me. It's true, the whole family is ungrateful.
No, I'd better not make a fool of myself. Should I get a divorce and go find another woman to cheat on?
Damn it, a few years ago it shouldn't have been that difficult.
After all, Kenshiro's genes are quite good, given that he was the one who could give birth to a child like Asuka. Otherwise, how could he have been chosen by the Asuka family and taken in as their son-in-law?
My father and mother were considered a perfect match, both in terms of looks and talent.
It's just that he's been an alcoholic for years, and his face has been scarred by debt collectors, which makes him look ferocious.
"Pah! It's all that unlucky woman's fault! Otherwise, how could I have fallen to this state!"
Kenjiro Endo thought to himself that he was trying to find some excuse for his actions.
In addition to the audience, the equipment was also tampered with.
When it's Asuka's turn to perform, the headphones emit high-frequency noise, which not only fails to provide the desired in-ear monitoring effect but also causes continuous interference.
In addition, the speakers also create stuttering and delays, making it difficult for her to find the beat.
Of course, it wasn't Asuka who suffered all this, but a tall actress who wished to remain anonymous.
Her figure is very similar to Asuka's, with long, slender legs, but her face and skin are much worse. Strictly speaking, she is also the standard clothes hanger type that the client needs.
In addition, because of the heavy stage makeup, the only difference is in their skin tone.
Unless you're someone who spends a lot of time with Asuka, you wouldn't be able to tell at first glance.
Moreover, being a professional entertainer, her demeanor is far superior to Asuka's.
Even Kuroda misjudged it.
Of course, this is also why the difference in skin tone is not very noticeable on surveillance footage; otherwise, an agent with a keen eye would be able to tell the difference at a glance.
"It's such a shame about Asuka; her demeanor has improved so rapidly in just a few days."
"I'll catch up with her after the performance and try to communicate with her again."
"If this stupid woman is willing to apologize, I might be able to take her in."
As for Kenjiro Endo, although he remembered what his daughter looked like, his eyesight was already failing due to years of heavy drinking, and he didn't notice anything amiss.
Then, Kenjiro Endo opened his mouth.
"Asuka! You little money-loser, come back with me—!"
The figure on the stage completely ignored him.
The crowd turned to Kenjiro Endo, looking at him with disgust as he reeked of alcohol.
"Who is this guy, so drunk and ruining other people's performance?"
"Tsk tsk, what a disrespectful act for an elder, really..."
"Is he out of his mind from drinking? I hope my elders don't end up like this in the future..."
Seeing that Asuka had no reaction and hearing the others' sarcastic remarks, Kenjiro Endo became furious and embarrassed.
"You despicable, unfilial daughter! Do you think you can fly away now that you're all grown up, leaving your old father here to fend for himself?"
"What kind of behavior is it to look down on your own father? Get off the stage!"
At this moment, the prelude had already begun, and Kenjiro Endo's roar seemed particularly abrupt.
"This guy has already disturbed public order."
"Where's the security? Someone needs to take charge."
"I wonder if he'll get drunk and hit us on the head. We don't know where this drunkard came from, and the people on stage clearly don't recognize him."
Inside the monitoring room.
"Interesting. In just a few days, his mindset has grown so quickly. It seems my encouragement has had some effect!"
"Yes, having a project ruined by one's own father is indeed a common situation for a new artist to grow."
"Okay, okay, I like her more and more."
"Don't act on your own. After the performance, I'll personally persuade her to abandon her evil ways and come to the light!"
The subordinate thought to himself that it seemed there was no chance of him becoming colleagues with Asuka.
Although they are powerful and loyal, they would never have unrealistic expectations of Kuroda Karito.
When the boss gets involved, things often just get messed up.
But what does it matter? They're not agents. It just means there's still money to be made, so it's not a bad thing for everyone.
Of course, before capturing Asuka, some destruction still needs to be done, as everyone knows.
So, while Kenjiro Endo continued to shout and incite hatred, the audience was given a new task.
Rumors that were very unfavorable to Asuka began to spread.
"Wait, I think I know this guy. And she really seems to be the father of that tall girl on stage..."
"I heard that this woman gave up the job her family had arranged for her through connections in order to become an entertainer, which is why her father ended up like this..."
"No way, not a single person in the stands reacted."
"You can know a person's face but not their heart. This woman is so cold-hearted. They say celebrities are heartless, and now it seems it's true..."
"I couldn't tell..."
The crowd began to whisper among themselves.
They sang and danced on stage.
Apart from Chris, the minister's team, and Hiro Nakajima's team, no one else knows that it's not Asuka.
But the minister didn't care; she was completely indifferent to the job.
Even at fashion shows, the audience and consumers are often not the same group.
Most of the audience members were a bunch of shut-ins and perverts who couldn't even find girlfriends, so how could they possibly buy our women's clothing?
Who would I give it to? Am I going to wear it myself?
Chris, on the other hand, was quite serious.
He remained silent for a long time before finally mustering the courage to find Nakajima Hiroshi.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Nakajima, but the company entrusted me with this task, so I can't ignore your act of impersonating an artist. If..."
"I will arrange for Asuka to appear normally in the future."
Nakajima Hiroshi smiled.
Asuka is the main performer hired by the other party, unlike other performers who fill in extra minutes, so replacing her is indeed unreasonable.
"As you can see, there are people carrying out malicious actions against Asuka Kirara at the scene."
"As your company's employed artist, we naturally need to ensure the quality of her performance, wouldn't you agree?"
"……oh."
Little Chris was easily persuaded.
At that moment, Hiroshi Nakajima's phone vibrated slightly.
