The Popular Beautiful Idol, Who Suddenly Announced Her Secret Love Relationship and Retired, Is My Girlfriend - Chapter 11 - Excited Breaths

Chapter 11 – Excited Breaths

Transfer three stations from the nearest station. After another 6 stops on the rapid train, I arrived near the place where Futaba’s press conference will be held.

“As expected of a celebrity…”

One of the best office districts in Tokyo, lined with skyscrapers.

It’s a place that ordinary people rarely have a connection to.

Celebrities go to these kinds of places every day for work. While it might make people feel envious, after listening to Futaba’s stories, I’m not that jealous.

It’s probably more difficult for the entertainment industry in general than for idols.

I walked to the address Futaba sent me.

I thought I might get lost a little since I rarely come to such a big city, but…

“This really stands out.”

There was no point in worrying.

There was a lot of commotion in front of the venue where the press conference was to be held, with reporters holding cameras in anticipation.

There was a TV broadcast, and someone who looked like someone from a weekly magazine was holding a single-lens camera, and even as an amateur, I could tell just how big of a day it was today.

I blended in with the media as they entered the building one by one, and I also infiltrated.

At the reception desk, I showed the admission permit that Futaba had given me in advance, and was able to enter without arousing suspicion.

Even though I didn’t have a camera or anything, I managed to get in there. They didn’t even get suspicious.

I don’t think it’s because there are too many people and the staff are all lazy, but…I can’t help but find it strange.

Well, I guess I’ll consider myself lucky that I made it in safely.

Once inside, I follow the guidance to the room where the press conference is taking place.

But before that, I need to contact Futaba.

“Excuse me. May I use the restroom?”

I said this to the security guard standing along the way, then left the line and headed to the restroom.

I entered a stall, took out my smartphone, and sent a LINE message to Futaba saying, [I’ve arrived.]

I thought I would wait until it was marked as read, but,

[I’m in the conference room on the 11th floor, second from the back. Come now!]

A reply came in seconds.

[How am I supposed to do that? There are a ton of security guards.]

[Just be bold and come! I sneaked out while pretending to use the restroom and I’m waiting. Move fast!]

[You act fast.]

From here on, it’s an infiltration mission.

I have no choice but to go. I can’t afford to keep her waiting.

After making up my mind, I exited the bathroom, blended in with the crowd of reporters filling the hallway, managed to sneak past the security guards, and took the elevator to the 11th floor.

“I don’t see her here…”

When I arrived at the 11th floor, I cautiously walked down the hallway.

Perhaps because the room where the press conference will be held is on the seventh floor, there are no people on this floor.

In the first place, this floor itself is lined with conference rooms, so maybe there aren’t any people around.

Besides, there doesn’t seem to be any meetings today. After all, the idol group press conference will be held downstairs.

It’s likely restricted to authorized personnel only.

I moved as silently as possible and arrived in front of the room where Futaba is supposed to be.

When I slowly opened the door and tried to look inside,

“Eh——”

My hand was grabbed from inside and I was pulled into the room.

When I looked towards the door that had been slammed shut, I saw Futaba, who was breathing heavily.
