Third Person Perspective
"Buying a Production House. It feels like the demand from Aqua has changed tremendously. From a small thing to a big thing, and of course, the difference in money." Miyako said while holding her forehead before breathing a deep sigh.
"So what do you think, Miyako? You can do it, right? Miyako-emon~~~" Ai replied after she just told Miyako what happened yesterday. She put her hands together and looked up like she was praying. She pleaded to Miyako with her playful puppy eyes.
"Well, of course, we can; with the various revenues we have, it is not a difficult thing to buy or take over a Production House that only contains underground idols. If only they weren't affiliated with a small subsidiary company of the Shinomiya Group." Miyako responded, quite concerned while pushing Ai's forehead.
"It's not like this is far from the initial request anyway. Ha— It's not too much to convert taking two talents into taking over one house production."
"There's been a lot going on in the last few days. Honestly, I was thinking the same as you. It's just listening to the explanation and what happened to Aqua. There's no way I could have left him alone, right?"
"That's true."
Miyako agreed with Ai. It wasn't that she didn't know what happened. Far from it, she was most likely the only person outside the Hoshino family who knew almost everything about them when she heard the story about Aqua from Mem and Ai, especially about the supernatural stuff.
This made Miyako remember when the twins said they were Amaterasu's reincarnation. Hearing babies their age speak eloquently like ordinary people already felt very supernatural. And the togetherness between Miyako and Aqua somehow made what had happened to Aqua in the past few days something that was only counting the days to occur in Miyako's eyes.
Well, even though Miyako had such a sentiment in the back of her mind. It was still astonishing to Miyako when it actually happened— especially talking about spirits and the like, for someone who was not from Tokyo and arguably from the countryside who was still superstitious. What she heard from Ai was so real that it gave her goosebumps.
Miyako cleared her throat with and animatedly explained what she thought about Aqua's request. "Ha… All of this would be easy if the production house did not have an alliance with a company related to the Shinomiya Group. What's annoying is how they seem to hide the fact that they are related to them, so I'm pretty sure ordinary people would never guess it. It could even be only people in the entertainment world who know about it."
"Yes, even they need to examine it deeply enough to know that," Ai replied, not impressed by this prospect of the likelihood they could achieve what Aqua's requested.
"Yeah, if Jimina's production house is just an ordinary company. We can use a bad rumor about them, make it go viral, and take over the company. Then with our company's good reputation, we can say the takeover is our way of improving the idol world. It's a good plan to increase reputation and advertising for our company." Once again, Miyako explained what she would do.
"That's a good plan." Ai nodded in response to Miyako's long explanation. In her mind, what Miyako told her was an impressive plan. "But if they didn’t have a relationship with a big company. I don't think they would last long." Ai added.
"Yeah…" They both talked about how they would approach the acquisition. As Miyako said, it would have been easier if they did not have the backing of a big company, but they still wanted to meet Aqua's requests.
It also shows how often these two mature women pampered Aqua and that they would always try to fulfill his requests. Well, of course, Ruby too. Although Miyako often said that Ai spoiled the twins too much. But when viewed from an outsider's point of view, what Miyako did to the twins was not much different from spoiling them.
"Well, in the end, we'll probably try to buy them outright. Although it will probably be more expensive than usual." Miyako said and remembered when she acquired many small game production companies under their belt.
"That might be the only plan. We know about them, it's not just a rumor, but it's almost certain that what they're doing is real, right? If that's the case, I wonder if they would sell it?"
"Hm… I don't know, but it would be strange if they didn't sell it above market price. It just creates suspicion, and people's eyes will focus on it. If there wasn't anything weird down there."
Miyako and Ai looked at each other before saying the same thing.
"Right?"
"Honestly, after I heard what Aqua said about that building. There must be something going on in that place, right?"
"Yeah, but because of that, he wanted it."
"That sounds crazy, you know." Even so, Miyako said that while in her mind. It was quite an appropriate thing to say by someone who said they are a reincarnation of Amaterasu.
"That might be true, but he said it could strengthen him to ward off the spirits."
"Hm— Is that so."
Well, if Aqua said that she needed to get that production house. To this day, what Aqua tells her to do and say is always suitable and very beneficial to the company and her. It was like a sign from God in her mind.
Another thing that comes to mind when Miyako talks about the safety and health of Aqua is an incident a few years ago. The sight of Aqua covered in blood sometimes still comes to mind. The same thing must have happened to Ai as well.
"Oh yes, since we're done with our talk. Is it okay for you to come with me?" Miyako told Ai, who was opening a snack because she wanted to take a break after a long chat.
"Hm?"
"Well, it's been several days since you prepared for B-Komachi's next performance. So— Today, we're going to make up for it. I already told Ichigo about it. He's on the way."
"Really?"
"Yes, after all, this live performance is very important. It's been a long time since B-Komachi performed at the Tokyo Dome. I can't let you go this time."
"Miyako-emon! You traitor!" Ai screamed, but it wasn't long for her to be taken by Ichigo. After Ai's gone, there was only Miyako in the room. She sat on the seat and breathed out a heavy sigh for a long time before once again dropping her head down toward many paperwork she had.
Just as Miyako was working on her paperwork. Her smartphone was ringing, and it was quite an unexpected caller with the name 'Tokino Sora' on the screen.
"Sora, huh? Why did she call me? Isn't she in Ichigo's hand? Well, I hope this call is not something bad happen."
