Next August.

Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture, Japan.

"Is it here?"

Tetsu Nishino said to a giant dome baseball stadium in front of him.

"Well, it's here," Nishino Kazuya nodded, "Look, there are so many people around, this is Nagoya Dome."

Nagoya City is located in the central and western part of Honshu, and is located near Ise Bay like Mie Prefecture. It is the fourth largest city in Aichi Prefecture.

As the center of the Ise Bay Economic Circle, Nagoya City is often the venue for various performances in the East China Sea area.

Aichi Prefecture is adjacent to Mie Prefecture, so you can directly reach Nagoya City by taking the JR Tokai Line from Tsu City.

Tetsuya Nishino and Kazuya Nishino came here to watch a "Nogizaka 46 Summer Tour Nagoya Performance".

“There are indeed quite a lot of people.”

Seeing a large purple crowd gradually gathering, although Takashi Nishino only knows a little bit, he also knows the nationality of this idol group.

"But it seems we came very early, and the show will only start in the afternoon."

"I came early, so I can go for a walk in the shop, but I will be gone later." Kazuya Nishino said happily.

Before the performance begins, staff outside the venue will sell support for the performance.

The support from popular members will be bought early, so fans who plan to buy their own push must queue up early.

Kazuya Nishino took Tetsu Nishino to a shop stall that was obviously popular.

Although it was still early, the team had already lined up for a while.

While the two of them were not yet lined up, Nishino Kazuya talked endlessly about interesting idols, and Nishino Tetsuya listened carefully.

Nogizaka 46 is a Japanese female idol group. In 2017, it successfully released its first single with a million-dollar sales, and became a Japanese national idol group in one fell swoop.

Because of her high appearance and high temperament, Nogizaka 46 formed the young lady style.

The cool, literary and dignified temperament shown by this idol group has attracted many young boys and girls.

The sense of transparency is very strong, which is even more popular for high school boys.

In the eyes of the baseball teenagers, there is not only baseball, but also cute girls.

An indispensable part of the idol support is a scarf with the corresponding member's names written.

Seeing the support scarves being sold, Takashi Nishino suddenly remembered that he had seen similar push scarves on the court.

"Well... I seemed to have seen such a purple scarf in the previous game."

"Hey?! Really! Whose one? "

Kazuya Nishino suddenly became excited, but unexpectedly someone else did such a feat on the court.

Holding his chin, Takashi Nishino recalled.

"Hori Miona...Hori Miyona...It seems to be this."

At that time, Tetsu Nishino was squatting in the catcher's seat. While thinking about the ball, he glanced at the third base stand and saw several teammates of the hitter holding scarves to support him.

The words on the scarf seemed to have nothing to do with the hitter, and Nishino Tetsuya felt it was a little strange, so he passed the note.

"Ahhh, Horisan, I like it very much, it's a recommendation."

"Push again?"

"Kaya, how many pushes do you have? Didn't you say you were single pushes?" Nishino Tetsugu complained.

"Yes, if you push a group alone, you won't be a brother."

"Well……"

This statement seems interesting to others, and Tetsu Nishino really doesn't understand the psychology of these fans.

"Hehe, just kidding, of course I am the first to recommend myself!"

After chatting for a while, it was finally the two of them in the team's turn. Kazuya Nishino bought a total of 2 support scarves and other things, and gave one of the support scarves to Tetsu Nishino.

The weather is hot now, so Takashi Nishino put his support scarf on his backpack leisurely.

"Azhe, you are quite skilled." Kazuya Nishino smiled.

"When Na Jiang comes out, remember to shout with me and change it to a support color."

"Yeah, I understand."

Before coming to Nagoya, Tetsu Nishino did a lot of homework and knew what he was talking about.

Kazuya Nishino went to Nogizaka46 when she was in middle school.

At first, he went for the most famous Mai Shiraishi, but later he gradually ordered the company without even notice.

Nishino Nanase.

After knowing the girl, Takashi Nishino doubted that Kazuya Nishino pushed her because she was called "Nogizaka's Ace" and that her support color happened to be the color of the baseball uniform of Shiratsuyama High School.

As he was chatting, Takashi Nishino found that his cell phone was ringing.

"Kaya, I'll answer a call."

"Uh-huh."

From the caller ID, Tetsu Nishino saw that the phone was called by Minister Kawamoto Makiko, and he was a little surprised why there was something to come to him now.

"Hey, Minister Kawamoto, well, it's me, the Japanese Basketball Association..."

"Now? OK, I understand."

Kazuya Nishino looked at the gathering of a large number of fellow friends with great enthusiasm, and was slightly stunned when he heard the conversation between Takashi Nishino.

After hanging up the phone, Takashi Nishino thought with a puzzled look on his face. He looked up and saw that it was Kazuya Nishino's inquiring gaze.

"Minister Kawamoto called and said that the school received a notice from the Japanese Ball Association..."

"Hey?! That's not! Oh..."

Kazuya Nishino was happy at first, then suddenly thought of something and felt a little depressed.

Now the high school baseball event is basically over, and the affairs related to the Japan Ballball Association are only those youth base events.

Kawamoto Makiko is the director of the baseball department of Shirayama High School. He called Nishino Tetsuya to talk about baseball.

Then there is only one answer.

"I'm going back now, is it urgent?" Kazuya Nishino asked tentatively.

"Well, I said I decided to go back now and go to Beijing."

"That means you're going back soon, right?"

"Well, that's not the case... If you decide not to go, you don't need to rush back."

Afterwards, when talking about the conversation, Tetsu Nishino was absent-minded from time to time and occasionally joined the conversation.

Although Tetsu Nishino looked indifferent, the two of them were friends who grew up together, and their expressions they pretended could not be hidden from others.

Kazuya Nishino knew that he was moved from the beginning.

People with talents always yearn for challenging a higher level of world.

"Azhe, you can't do this."

"Eh? Sorry."

After being called out by Kazuya Nishino, Tetsu Nishino quickly apologized for his distractedness.

Kazuya Nishino took the glow stick in Nishino Tetsu's hand and said with a smile: "Azhe, you can't call it at all, so you will be despised by the people around you at that time."

"There's no way. I've only been practicing for a night. It's good if I can remember what I want to do."

Takashi Nishino smiled bitterly.

The performances are diverse, and almost every song is different. If you are not a senior fan, you will not be able to do it incompletely.

"Give me the vote."

"what?"

As he said, Takashi Nishino took out the entrance ticket and handed it over.

An unsatisfied joke appeared on his face, and Kazuya Nishino pushed Tetsu Nishino.

"Anyway, if you have something to do, go back first. I'll transfer this ticket to someone else, so that you won't be able to keep up with our pace at that time."

"Can you be alone?" Takashi Nishino worried.

"Don't worry, I'm much better than you when watching the performance, so hurry up and go back."

Looking at Kazuya Nishino's expression of "You are in the way" on his face, Tetsu Nishino didn't say anything more.

"Oh well……"

As he said that, Tetsu Nishino said goodbye to Kazuya Nishino and turned around and ran towards the station.

Looking at the figure gradually fading away, Kazuya Nishino stood there without saying a word until Tetsu Nishino disappeared from his vision.

The connected ticket was tightly held.
