Chapter 1457 Chapter 1466, caught a wild Akina Nakamori? ? !
The streets of Akihabara were bustling with people arriving for the anime festival.
You can watch performances at the main venue, buy gifts at the surrounding shops, buy food at the mobile food stalls, and take photos with the many mascots along the street.
Everyone had a smile on their face, and they didn't even feel the heat. They felt that coming to the anime festival was definitely the right decision!
Few people have considered what the people inside the dolls feel.
Ueda Yu was wearing a Totoro-themed costume. Because the abdomen was spacious and breathable, he could occasionally wipe the sweat off his face and take a sip of water. However, he still felt like he was about to get heatstroke!
Not to mention distributing flyers and taking photos with tourists. This made Ueda Yu understand why the recruitment requirements were good health and no high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or cardiovascular diseases.
"If I had known, I would have refused even at the cost of my life!"
Just then, through his heavy clothing, Ueda Yu suddenly heard a sweet voice exclaiming from behind him:
"Totoro!"
Ueda Yu sighed. Looks like there will be another group photo. But she sounds like a cute girl, so I'll reluctantly go along with it!
"Naoki-san, there's Totoro here too!"
Akina, seeing someone dressed as a Totoro mascot on the street, was overjoyed and held up her Totoro costume, laughing.
"Haha, the little Totoro has met its parents!"
"Quick, quick, let's take a group photo!"
Seeing that Akina had already stood next to the Totoro plushie, what could Naoki Nagayama say? He could only raise his camera and prepare to take pictures.
"1, 2, 3, Smile!"
At this moment, Ueda Yu saw the people in the group photo through the slit in the fine gauze, but felt that something was increasingly wrong!
At first, when Ueda Yu saw the pink baseball cap, round glasses, and denim overalls, he was thinking to himself:
"Ah, she's cosplaying Arale! She looks just like her, she's definitely a cute girl!"
When taking the group photo, I tilted my head and saw Arale's beautiful face up close, and my heart skipped a beat:
"Wow, this girl is so cute! Her skin is so nice! Her features are so delicate! She's so pretty! And she looks so familiar."
Then, as Akina and Ueda Yu thanked him, he felt his heart race:
"Huh?! Huh?! This Arale looks so much like...that guy?!"
Finally, when he heard Akina calling out to the person taking photos in front of him, "Naoki-san, take a few more pictures. Do you want to take one too?", Ueda Isamu finally woke up!
"It's Akina! It's wild Nakamori Akina!!"
For a moment, Ueda Yu was so shocked that he froze, unable to speak, and even felt his head burning.
Akina noticed that Totoro, who had been interacting with her, had suddenly stopped moving, and asked with some concern:
"What's wrong with Totoro-san?!"
I'm a little worried after not receiving a reply:
"Is it heatstroke? Should we call someone for help?"
He looked up and asked Naoki Nagayama for help:
"Naoki-san, Totoro-san seems to be unwell."
Naoki Nagayama walked over and tried to peek through the gap, but couldn't see clearly, so he could only say for now:
"It's probably from the sun. Let's help him to a shady spot to rest for a bit."
As he spoke, he gently helped the giant Totoro towards a flowerbed shaded by trees next to the mall. Ueda Yu, still in shock, was helped over and sat down.
Just as Naoki Nagayama was about to find someone to handle the situation, Ichido Kojima, who was working part-time with Isamu Ueda, saw this scene and ran over dressed in a Doraemon costume.
I must say, the chubby guy's running posture is actually quite cute.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"It seems like he has heatstroke."
After arriving at the flower bed, Kojima Ichido took off his headgear. However, since his mascot costume was different from Ueda Isamu's, he could only find the zipper from the back and then busied himself unzipping it.
Ueda Yu, whose upper body had been pulled out of the mascot costume, subconsciously looked at Akina as if he wanted to say something, but Kojima Ichido, in a hurry, grabbed his shoulders and shook him vigorously:
"Ueda!! Ueda!! What's wrong?! Say something!! Don't scare me! Say something!!"
"I > wow < uh... oh."
Dizzy and disoriented from being shaken, Ueda Isamu forcefully pressed down on his friend's arm, stopping his movement.
"I'm fine!"
"Oh, that's good, that's good."
The scene that just happened left Naoki Nagayama and Akina, who were watching from the sidelines, feeling a bit awkward as they wanted to lend a hand but couldn't find a way to help.
"Since everything's alright, that's good. Get some rest, we'll take our leave now."
However, at this moment, Ueda Yu finally realized why he had been stunned. He stared at Arale Akina, his voice trembling slightly:
"Is that Akina-chan?!"
Kojima Ichido then had a chance to glance at it and immediately corrected him:
"That's clearly Arale! Ueda, have you lost your mind because of the heat?!"
"Baka! Don't interrupt!"
Ueda Yu gave his friend a nudge, still looking at Akina with anticipation in his eyes.
"It's Akina-chan, right?!"
"."
Akina glanced at Naoki Nagayama, who was trying not to laugh, then nodded slightly and whispered to Isamu Ueda:
"Shh, Totoro-san, I snuck out to play. Don't tell anyone, okay?"
"Mmmmmmm!"
Ueda Yu nodded repeatedly, his eyes practically shining.
Kojima Ichido, who was standing nearby, then realized what his friend was talking about. He turned around in surprise and looked Akina up and down carefully. Then his eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed in disbelief:
"Akina-chan?! Todoroki-chan?! It's the real, living Akina-chan!!!"
The Akihabara Anime Festival was already bustling with people, and the fact that Mr. Totoro sat down and Mr. Doraemon ran over had already attracted a lot of attention.
At that moment, Kojima Ichido's sudden exclamation of surprise instantly drew the attention of everyone around him, especially when they saw Akina dressed as Arale in his direction!
"Is he talking about Akina-chan?" "No way, Nakamori Akina retired over a year ago." "Isn't that Arale over there?" "You're kidding, right?" "You must have mistaken her for someone else."
Various murmurs circulated, but footsteps unconsciously converged on this spot. At the same time, many people saw Arale's true face beneath her disguise. Those closest had already recognized Akina's true identity.
"It really does look a bit like her." "She really does look like Akina!" "Her face is a little chubby, a bit chubbier than before."
"Where have you gained weight?!"
Upon hearing the most sensitive description, Akina subconsciously replied with a single sentence, then immediately covered her mouth!
Now everyone around understood!
"Hey! It really is Akina!" "It's the real person!" "Akina is at the anime convention!" "That's Naoki Nagayama next to her!" "..."
In a very short time, the news spread, and people flocked to the place like they were going to a fair, including reporters and paparazzi with their friends and family.
The cheers and shouts grew louder and louder, and some people even started screaming. The crowd was growing larger and larger!
Even though he hasn't had much exposure for over a year, the appeal of the Showa era's number one popular idol remains undeniable!
"Naoki-san, what should we do?"
Amidst the chaos, Akina blinked at Naoki Nagayama, her expression not showing much panic, but rather a kind of exhilaration and smugness, as if she'd gotten herself into trouble. After all, she was out with her legal husband, not having an affair.
"what to do."
Surrounded by the crowd, Naoki Nagayama turned his head and looked around, searching for an escape route.
"Of course we run!"
If the crowd gathers again, a stampede or something similar might happen!
Standing next to Akina, Kojima Ichido realized he had caused trouble; he shouldn't have shouted!
"Private Marseille. Private Marseille!! Please forgive me! Akina! I didn't mean to!"
Ueda Yu had originally planned to sign autographs, but at this point he could only stand up and use the doll to block his view.
"Akina-chan, it's nice to meet you, but unfortunately I didn't have time to get your autograph."
"You all go quickly, I'll hold them off!"
"Ha, arigato~ taikobu taikobu"
Despite the tense atmosphere, Akina still smiled and thanked him, then took the Polaroid photo she had just taken from her pocket and handed it to Ueda Isamu.
"Time is short, so I can't sign it. Here, take this as a souvenir!"
Ueda Isamu received the photos and was filled with excitement!
At this moment, Naoki Nagayama took Akina's hand:
"Alright, Akina, stick close to me, we're going to run away!"
"Haha, we're so cute~~"
Amidst joyful laughter, Arale was pulled along by Naoki Nagayama, squeezing through the crowd and slipping away towards the streets of the anime convention.
"Akina! She's here!!" "Akina Nakamori has appeared!" "Akina's here at the anime convention!"
Similar cries quickly spread through the streets of Akihabara, with questions like "Where is Akina?" and "Which direction did she go?" emanating from the crowd.
After hearing that Akina Nakamori had appeared, many people gave up their original plans to visit the attractions and wanted to catch up with her!
Everyone rushed towards the source of the news like a tide, only to scatter like waves. It seemed they hadn't found Nakamori Akina.
The rushing crowds made the streets of Akihabara somewhat chaotic, and some roadside stalls were almost knocked over!
Meanwhile, Itō Shuichi was leading his subordinates on an inspection tour of the area.
"what happened?"
Somewhat unexpectedly, Shuichi Itō picked up a billboard from the roadside.
"Why does everyone seem to have gone crazy? Are they handing out gifts or putting on some kind of performance over there?"
“I think I heard the name ‘Akina’.”
Masamichi Tanagami said,
"It seems he went to chase after Nakamori Akina!"
"Did Akina-san come to the anime festival?"
Shuichi Itō was somewhat surprised, as he thought Akina should be at home taking care of Ren Nagayama right now!
Naoki Nagayama wouldn't tell others about things like taking his wife out for fun, so Shuichi Itō was actually unaware of it.
"It seems like Naoki Nagayama is also involved."
Kazuma Matsuno, standing nearby, also spoke up.
I heard his name.
"Naoki-san actually brought Akina to the anime convention?"
Naoki Nagayama should be filming "Fast & Furious." Shuichi Itō seemed a little lost, but seeing the commotion their appearance caused, he couldn't help but shake his head.
"That's really neglecting your proper duties."
"And they didn't even bother to disguise themselves!"
Just as he sighed, Yoshihiko Noda walked over from a nearby shop, carrying a giant mechanical soldier toy in his hand:
"What's wrong with Shuichi-san?"
Then I glanced at the restless crowd:
"What's wrong with everyone?!"
"Following celebrities."
Before Shuichi Itō could finish speaking, a figure suddenly broke through the encirclement. The crowd parted as if parted by water. Leading the group was a tall young man, followed by Arale, who was wearing denim overalls.
"That's... Naoki-san?"
Then I saw two people rushing towards me!
"Huh?"
At that moment, Naoki Nagayama, with Akina, rushed out of the crowd and turned around to see his good friend Shuichi Itō standing by the side of the street!
"Shui Yi-san?"
Naoki Nagayama glanced over and saw Yoshihiko Noda standing next to him!
At this moment, the crowd that had just been left behind closed in and began chasing after the two. Time was of the essence!
Suddenly, an idea popped into Naoki Nagayama's mind!
"To shake off everyone else, you need a shield!"
He made his decision instantly and ran toward Yoshihiko Noda, who was next to Shuichi Itō!
When he got to Noda Yoshihiko's side, he looked at the somewhat bewildered Noda Yoshihiko and grabbed his shoulder forcefully:
"I'm so sorry, Noda-san!!! But you'll thank me later!"
"???!!!"
Before Yoshihiko Noda could react, Naoki Nagayama used a powerful teleportation technique to push him to the front of the crowd!
Then I heard a loud shout from behind me:
"Member of the House of Representatives!! Representative Noda is here!!!"
He has an important speech!
"."
After saying that, Naoki Nagayama said to Shuichi Itō:
"Mr. Xiu Yi, I'm in dire need of help! Please assist me!!"
Then, pulling Akina along, they slipped into a nearby shop and quickly made their way to the back door! This was the shop Naoki Nagayama had bought in Akihabara; he knew it had a back door!
Shuichi Itō and Yoshihiko Noda, both completely bewildered, hadn't even had time to react, but the crowd that had just heard the shout was even more confused!
Weren't we all here to see Akina Nakamori? How did a member of the House of Representatives suddenly appear?! And he's going to give a speech?!
No matter how indifferent I am to politics, I will still suddenly pause and tense up if I hear words like "member of parliament," "Member Noda," or "important speech" on the street!
Yoshihiko Noda was completely dumbfounded!
He immediately stood in front of the aggressive crowd!
He knew absolutely nothing! He was suddenly assigned to give a speech, without even knowing the topic! He'd just bought a giant mechanical soldier!
However, Shuichi Itō finally realized that he had to help clean up the mess his best friend had made!
"Ahem. Noda-kun, calm down!!"
Shuichi Itō patted Yoshihiko Noda on the shoulder, watching the crowd gradually gather, including the reporters among them.
"This is a perfect opportunity to explain the 'culture-based nation' strategy to them, and to highlight your own contributions to the Akihabara cultural district! This will help you build political capital!"
Perhaps it was the phrase "accumulating political capital" that woke him up. Yoshihiko Noda snapped out of it, adjusted his mindset in a few breaths, and even put on a smile.
He walked to the front of the crowd and clapped his hands:
"Everyone, I am Yoshihiko Noda, a member of parliament and one of the founders of the Akihabara cultural district and the Japan Anime Festival. Now, please listen to what I have to say!!"
"."
For a politician, being able to give speeches without notes anytime, anywhere is a very important skill!
Yoshihiko Noda had already honed his skills through countless speeches outside the station day after day!
After Shuichi Itō borrowed a megaphone from a nearby shop, his impromptu speech somehow took on the feel of a general election speech!
The topics are readily available: anime festivals, Akihabara cultural district, and building a nation on culture!
"Everyone, you understand, let's give a round of applause!!"
"Hoo~" "Hoo hoo~~" "."
Naoki Nagayama and Akina were panting heavily in the alley. To be precise, Akina was panting heavily; she hadn't run this fast in a long time!
"Naoki Sang Huhu"
Akina looked at her husband.
"Did we get away?!"
Naoki Nagayama listened intently and, confirming that there were no more sounds of pursuit, nodded.
"They must have escaped!!"
"Whew! That's great!"
Akina leaned against Naoki Nagayama's arm, laughing and panting.
"Hahaha, that was so exciting!!"
"."
Naoki Nagayama sighed, shaking his head as he looked at Akina, whose forehead was beaded with sweat.
"Akina, you really are..."
"What's wrong? What happened?!"
Akina grinned at Naoki Nagayama and shook his hand.
"Naoki-san, isn't this fun?!"
"Fun! Fun!"
Naoki Nagayama was helpless against his wife's coquettishness, or perhaps he simply enjoyed it.
"So what's next?"
"Of course we're going to keep going to the anime convention! Didn't they say there's a Junko-chan concert too?"
Naoki Nagayama looked Akina up and down in her clothes:
"And your outfit?"
"Ah, this."
Akina lowered her head, pondered for a few seconds, and then began to unslung the suspenders.
"Autumn beans and burlap sacks!!"
Naoki Nagayama quickly grabbed Akina's hand and nervously looked around.
"Even if you want to take your clothes off, you can't do it here!"
"What?!"
Akina broke free and continued to take off the straps of her denim overalls, then tied them into a knot around her waist as a belt, letting out her original loose t-shirt.
Then she took off the pink baseball cap and Arale glasses and put them into her small backpack. While she was at it, she took out a simple hair tie and put it on to tie her hair into a high ponytail. She also took the sunglasses from Nagayama Naoki's face and put them on, covering half of her face.
In the blink of an eye, a stylish young woman appeared in the alley!
"All right!"
Akina examined her reflection in the glass for a moment, then nodded in satisfaction.
"They're now looking for Akina Nakamori, who's cosplaying as Arale!"
"What does this have to do with Akina Nagayama?!"
"Forehead"
Naoki Nagayama couldn't help but admire how, with just a few steps, Akina had transformed from her previous cute style into her current mature and sophisticated look. Japanese makeup truly is an Asian sorcery!
"How about it? Doesn't it look like it?"
"It's completely different! Amazing!"
"Haha, okay, let's head to the main venue now!"
Akina led the way aggressively.
"Naoki-san, you once said that the most dangerous place is the safest place!"
"."
Naoki Nagayama was silent for two seconds before calling out,
"Mingcai."
"what happened?"
"The main venue is in the opposite direction!"
"Ahhhhh~"
