NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 255_2
Tokyo News, Tokyo Television Station, Tokyo...
Almost every well-known new media outlet had gathered here. Continue your journey with My Virtual Library Empire
Haruka Yuzan was startled, subconsciously removing the stifling headgear as he watched the crew members search for different angles to record material, confusion welling up in his heart.
Hm?
Was this part of the plan? Did Chiba-san arrange this? No, that's not right. I'm in such a disheveled state, and I'm going on TV?
After a brief moment of thought, he decisively put the headgear back on.
His current appearance simply couldn't be shown on TV...
Suddenly, the scene became even livelier, and the passersby who saw this paused to watch.
How could such a small café draw the interest of so many mainstream media outlets for interviews??
Without some backing, they wouldn't have made it.
Especially the maids who had been hired to perform, they were all busily touching up their makeup. This was a chance to be on TV!!
The new media people in OL uniforms had finished recording simple footage and seemed to "randomly" pick a few passersby, presumably to ask how their café experience was.
The customers were also surprised, not expecting to have the chance to appear on camera after simply enjoying their coffee, and they began to share their opinions.
At that moment, Chiba Shimizu came out from inside, ignoring the new media and walking straight to Haruka Yuzan's side.
"Go change your clothes in the back then come out for the interview," she said, wearing a cap and a mask, clearly reluctant to be filmed.
"Did you arrange all this, Chiba-san?" Haruka Yuzan pointed at the group of crew members.
"It wasn't me..." Chiba Shimizu shook her head, "But now it's your turn to step forward."
"If not you then..."
"You should guess who it is with this capability...."
Alright, aside from Miss Otome, he really couldn't think of anyone else who had such clout.
He slipped in through the back door, got changed, made a quick tidy up, and with his gear in order, he walked straight out to face the barrage of cameras.
"Mr. Haruka, you're only eighteen this year, why did you decide to open a café?"
"I've always had a dream, it started on a blustery, snowy night..."
"And Mr. Haruka, it is said that you are..."
"Yes, remember to make me look handsome..."
...
The interview started, with questions that were soft-hitting and even a bit ingratiating, clearly pre-directed.
Once the interview was over, the crew hastily departed the way they came, and by tomorrow, "Tokyo's handsome young entrepreneur" would be the talk of the entire city!
Although Miss Otome was not present today, she still supported his venture from behind the scenes...
Watching their retreating figures, Haruka Yuzan shook his head, ignored the astonished stares of those around him, and quickly returned to the café to start the new round of busyness.
Time ticked by, moment by moment.
Busy from morning till noon, after taking turns to rest and hastily eating lunch, the busyness continued until the evening.
Finally, at half-past seven in the evening, they bid farewell to the last group of customers.
Seeing that there were still people hesitating at the door, wondering whether to come in for a drink, Misaki Saki made a quick decision, hanging the closed sign on the doorknob, deterring those who were contemplating another coffee.
What were they thinking, coming to drink coffee in the late evening! Not planning on sleeping?!
After finishing all this, the chef-dressed petite figure collapsed onto the soft chair, her delicate face showing an expression of utter listlessness.
"Well done, Misaki!"
On the other side, Haruka Yuzan, who had already taken off his mascot uniform and was listlessly lying on his chair, gave a thumbs-up to Misaki Saki.
"Alright, let's clean up a bit, and then we can go out for dinner..."
At this moment, Reiko Onodera, dressed in a white lace-patterned bodycon dress, came over, wiping the sweat from her forehead.
The madam's gentle face was filled with contentment. Although tired, it was all worth it. After several months of hard work and planning, today was finally the day to reap the rewards.
"Rei... Reiko, we are about to leave."
At that moment, Yaguchi Risa, who had changed her clothes, came over and began to take her leave from the beautiful lady.
"Eh? Risa, are you leaving now? How about having dinner together?"
Onodera looked at the petite employee and then at the two young girls behind her.
"No, Sister Reiko, my family has already prepared dinner."
The girl named Shimamura Naho spoke apologetically, and her companion nodded in agreement.
"Well, okay then..."
Reiko Onodera nodded, not insisting, "Risa, are you also going home to eat? I remember you live alone..."
Yaguchi Risa, who had planned to leave with them, was momentarily stunned, her cheeks, pinkened by busyness, grew even redder.
She really didn't want to have dinner with the leaders!! But, having declined last time, would refusing again this time earn her a hard time in the future? o(╥﹏╥)o
"No, no, I, I live alone."
After stammering out a response, she felt her mind go blank.
"Then let's have dinner together!!"
Onodera clapped her hands, smiling as she settled the matter.
"Alright, it's decided then, we'll eat out tonight, to treat everyone!"
Haruka Yuzan, who had taken a moment to regain his spirits, smiled as he walked up to the two, "Pack up, think about what you want to eat later!"
"Is that okay with you, Risa?"
"Ye-yes..."
Faced with the suddenly approaching young man, Yaguchi Risa's face turned red, and she shyly bowed her head.
For some reason, she couldn't help but recall the scene at her home that night, her first kiss... just like that, it was gone...
Her cheeks, flushed red, were almost buried in her own magnificent D-sized bust, her employee body exuding an enchanting milky aroma, sweet and rich, irresistibly delightful.
Children who grew up soaked in milk cans must all smell this sweet...
The group, after cleaning up, walked out of the café.
Haruka and Chiba Shimizu were at the forefront.
Reiko Onodera followed closely behind with the Spice Girl, while Misaki Saki and Yaguchi Risa were taking care of the rear.
"Isn't Otome Mizuko coming for dinner?"
The evening breeze brushed the girl's cheek; the nights of July had already a touch of coolness.
"Yumeko is probably still busy at the office..."
Haruka gazed at the vague stars in the night sky and replied softly.
"Yeah, sometimes Otome Yumeko is tired too."
Chiba Shimizu muttered something out of the blue.
"Hmm?"
"Although I hate to admit it, most of the time, I can't beat her..."
That's right, faced with the same problems, Otome Yumeko chose to confront them and even take the initiative to change the rules, while she chose to run away...
"Then, is there a chance for you and Yumeko to go back to how things were?"
.....
"Eh, Hoshina, why did your mother and sister leave early? Why didn't they stay for dinner?"
Reiko Onodera inquired softly.
The madam had met the Spice Girl's mother that day, and she always found a familiar sensation in her, much like her former self.
However, today was just too busy, and they didn't even exchange a few words.
After ending the rush, she turned around only to find that the Spice Girl's mother had already left with her sister.
"No."
Arisugawa Hoshina shook her head, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes: "They have things to handle tomorrow morning, so they need to get home early tonight."
Actually... Arisugawa Hoshina wanted the two of them to stay, but Ishihara Miko, fearing she and Mai would cause a disturbance, left without saying a word, taking Mai with her...
