What exactly is a metropolis?

The last rehearsal ended, and the time and place for meeting tomorrow was agreed. Shinichi Iwahashi said goodbye to the members of the Mimi Club. When he returned home, he put the paper bags in the performance costumes on the tray, and he didn't even change his clothes and lay on the tatami.

This home with a body is a very ordinary family of four in Shizuoka. In the RB society, which is now known as a total of 100 million middle-class (100 million middle-class), it is the most ordinary family.

My father works in Suzuki's research institute, and my mother is a housewife. There is a 10-year-old sister who has outstanding since childhood. After graduating from the Department of Law of Dongda University, she joined a law firm. The relationship between the siblings is lukewarm. In the eyes of my sister who is capable and never does unnecessary things, maintaining a good relationship with her younger brother is probably a redundant thing.

The two siblings attended public junior high schools in the same town. The sister is an outstanding alumni and the younger brother is an ordinary student.

In that school, there are a large number of students who have their own stores or family workshops at home. Although they may not make too much money, but when they cannot find the way to go, going home to inherit the family business is a backup path for life.

But working families like them lack such a clear way to retreat.

Both the siblings understood this at the same time. The sister, who had extraordinary talents, found a place in life with her own talents. The younger brother, who lacked this talent, also came to Tokyo after graduating from high school. Even when he packed up his things, said goodbye to his parents, and left Shizuoka with the minimum living expenses, he didn't know what he was going to Tokyo to do.

A metropolis is not only a "center", but also a stage where there are various possibilities that can be displayed by itself. If you look patiently, you will always know what you want.

Shinichi Iwahashi suddenly discovered the charm of the metropolis.

On Tuesday at 5:30 pm, after work, a small bus came to pick him up. Walking to the car, the young man in the driver's seat leaned out, "Iwahashi Sang?"

"Yes." Shinichi Iwahashi was carrying a bag of performance costumes in his hand. Of course, the exaggerated clothes could not be changed in advance.

I thought the young man was a driver, but after getting on the bus and saying hello to each other, I found out that the young man named Fengdao was Mimi Club's agent. Shinichi Iwahashi learned for the first time that this underground band had an agent.

"There are many situations when the members of the underground band serve as agents themselves. However, for us, no one is good at managing the itinerary, so we have to ask the agent." Kensaku Okubo and Shinichi Iwahashi explained.

"You are not omnipotent," Fengdao joked, "I can just make a living by this."

Fengjima has more than one band, Mimi Club, and he knows a lot about the clubs in Tokyo. He can find more performance opportunities for the band and act as a bus driver to send members to far-reaching performance venues.

The performance tonight was in Yokohama. The car got on the highway, and Shinichi Iwahashi discovered that something was wrong.

When I first got in the car, the band members who had worked with me for three days did not see the guitarist Takuji Sakamoto, but there was an extra young woman I had never seen before.

The girl has shoulder-length hair and bangs, and a fashionable beret. She has a quiet temperament, like a working girl who has changed from her uniform. Shinichi Iwahashi nodded at her, just pretending to be a greeting.

At that time, she stretched out her index finger, raised her sunglasses on her nose slightly, and smiled slightly, which was considered a return. It was a bit incompatible with her quiet temperament, with a frivolous manner.

No one told me about the origin of this girl.

Just as Mari Amantani asked him to sit there again, Shinichi Iwahashi didn't think much about it and just thought it was over. But now, he was going to leave Tokyo, and no one mentioned Takuji Sakamoto along the way, as if he had forgotten him.

Did Takuji Sakamoto also have an accident like riding a bicycle and hurting his wrist, so he found a substitute? This band cannot be so weak. Shinichi Iwahashi is a little worried.

The strange girl sat in front of him. Unconsciously, Shinichi Iwahashi stared at her for a while, and the more he looked, the more he felt that he seemed to be familiar with her.

At this time, as if he had noticed his gaze, the girl suddenly turned her face and looked at him. She was caught and Shin Iwahashi was stunned for a moment, and a thread of inspiration for Conan when solving the case suddenly flashed in her mind.

"Ah!" He suddenly realized.

Mari Amanya, who was sitting next to him, was startled, "What's wrong?"

"Is it Sakamoto?" Shinichi Iwahashi said.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter. The small bus was filled with joyful air.

"We're guessing, when will you find out?" Ishii Ryuu also held back his laughter, as if he had completed a prank.

"If you can't find out, let him talk to you after the performance." It was a mess, and I don't know who threw it over.

Who came up with this bad idea? I promise to thank you.

Takuji Sakamoto appeared as a woman when he joined the band and stood on the stage. For this reason, he also has a very matching stage name: Emi Hakata.

"Sakamoto San plays a lot, and has not been discovered by the audience until now. During the performance, there were many people in the audience calling him "Ko Huihui" enthusiastically." Fengjima, who was driving, also interrupted. He looked happy to see this kind of prank.

Xiao Huihui... OK.

The exaggerated performance costumes are not allowed to be replaced in the backstage, and it is not allowed to be dressed up beforehand. Having said that, if the appearance is very exaggerated, he might be recognized at once. It is precisely because of his simple and unpretentious dress that he didn't think about this from the beginning.

"By the way, when you arrive in the backstage, please be sure to call him "Emisan" or "Sou Huihui"," Ishii Ryuki also added.

Forget it, Xiao Huihui, Huimeisan is still okay. In fact, it is still the safest one.

However, Shinichi Iwahashi could understand why this is somewhat, "This identity is like a Disney actor's headgear, right?"

A real woman-wearing big shot is like an actor staying in a Disney hood. It will never break other people's dreams. This is really an admirable spirit.

It's not something like him who is still at the level of an hourly salary of 600 yen.

"Bingo!" The members of the band agreed with him very much, "It is worthy of being Iwahashi Sang!"

Although this kind of praise is not worthy of pride for it.

The bus was driving steadily on the highway. After the heat wave in the car disappeared due to the announcement of Takuji Sakamoto's identity, it fell into silence again. Shinichi Iwahashi turned his face away and went to see the scenery outside the car window that was constantly thrown behind him.

There is actually a big shot in the band...

If he had just met them, he might have been really surprised for a while.

But now, after staying with this band that has a mysterious style for a long time, he has been regarded as a person who has seen the world.

The world is great, don’t be surprised if something happens.
