After Being Cheated on & Abandoned by My ChildhoodFriend, I Ended Dating an Idol

Arc-2 Chapter-6: What is Kirishima's Calculation?

    Kirishima, the president of the agency to which Daikichi and Yukiho belonged, felt a pang in his chest.

    At 65 years old, his skin, which is often seen as being in his 40s, looked shabby and old, and even the frizz from his punch perm lacked its usual flutter. This was a true testament to his anxiety.

    "Sorry to keep you waiting."

    Kirishima enters the SS TV conference room.

    Here comes The director and producer of " Extreme Realism! Fearful Life on a Deserted Island!"

    They have a laptop in front of them that is not connected to the Internet.

    "Is there something wrong with our video editing?"

    Kirishima asks anxiously. He was deeply involved in the production of this program, which was unusual for him. He was in charge of all the planning, filming, and editing, a job that should normally be done by someone from the TV station.

    The only reason why they allowed him to do so is that he is a talented man. The successes he'd built up in the past were linked to his credibility. In other words, if there were any problems, Kirishima's credibility would be damaged.

    "No, there is no problem with the editing. It turned out really good and I think it will get the highest ratings in the history of SS TV. Kirishima-san is amazing after all." The man from the production company replies.

    He is also in charge of the program and is in a close relationship with Kirishima.

    This guy can't keep his head above water with Kirishima. It is because of Kirishima that he is in his current position.

    "Then-"

    "Kirishima-san, can you take a look at this for now?"

    "Mmm?"

    Kirishima stood between the producer and the director. He was positioned just in front of the laptop.

    The director took control of the laptop and opened the video file. The camera image began to play. The color of the screen was greenish because of the night vision mode.

    "What's this?"

    "It's one of the surveillance cameras installed all over the island."

    Kirishima remembered that there was such a thing.

    The surveillance camera was Kirishima's suggestion. He had them installed as part of the security system. To prevent viewers from breaking into the island after watching the program.

    The people on the show did not know about these cameras. They were kept in the dark because of the desire not to spoil the reality. Therefore, the camera was set up so that it could not be seen by the naked eye.

    "Is there something wrong with the footage from this camera? Is there a ghost or something?"

    For now, it's just a reflection of a rock face.

    "We're almost there-oh, here we go."

    The producer pointed at the screen. Daikichi and Yui came from the edge of the screen.

    "Oh, so this is the footage from the rainstorm. If you think you can use it, go ahead and edit i...."

    Kirishima's words stopped. It's because Yui is closing in on Daikichi. She pushes him against the wall and crawls her hands up his thighs.

    "Is there audio on this?"

    "We're picking up- turn it up."

    The director says yes and turns up the volume.

    "It's not just Muto-san, it's also Yusuke from Januzu, Yasuda who won the Best Actor award last year, and others-" Yui is making an outrageous statement.

    Kirishima couldn't keep his mouth shut.

    "This... is..."

    The producer looked back and chuckled, "Right."

    "What should we do about this? Normally, I would just delete the data in no time and be done with it, but this isn't normal, Kirishima-san."

    The director laughs, "Yes."

    Their "What do we do now?" was not a threat. Rather, they were trying to be supportive of Kirishima, to whom they had always been indebted. Besides, this kind of trouble was common in the entertainment industry.

    Kirishima had a rough idea of Yui's personality and sexual habits. He hadn't heard it directly from her, but he could tell by looking at her. He had known Yui for almost ten years now.

    Still, it was shocking to actually hear what she said. It was even more shocking because it was filmed.

    "There's too many of them. If this story is true, it means that both young and old alike are being eaten without regard."

    "Speaking of which, if we were to tell her that we also have a girlfriend, we might have a shot."

    "Okay, let's try baiting her at the next launch! I mean, I can't mess with a girl from Kirishima-san's office!"

    "Ugh! If it wasn't Kirishima-san's girl, there would have been a chance!"

    The producer and the director were having a lively discussion about vulgar topics. At the same time, Kirishima was thinking with a serious expression on his face. How will I handle this video?

    Think of a myriad of options and envision the consequences of your choices. Using the abacus in his brain, he calculates the profit generated by each option. Which one will be the most profitable in the long run?

    "This footage..."

    Kirishima then gave his answer.
