After some explanation, Nagasawa Masami, the short-haired woman wearing a black sleeveless dress and black stockings, also joined the group and followed them to the newly built stage in the city center.
Because there were a lot of people, and all of them were famous artists, Sei Itō directly used his connections to get a black business SUV from the hotel and drove everyone to the venue.
He didn't know if it was because he had changed Akikuruno City too much in the past two days, but the condition of the residents in Akikuruno City was obviously better than before. Even now that night was gradually falling, the streets still maintained a decent level of liveliness. Therefore, the group took a little more time than expected to arrive outside the stage built in the central square of Akikuruno City.
After using his face as proof to "swipe" the card, Sei Itō directly drove into the performance venue, which was patrolled by many security guards.
Actually, it was called a venue, but it was just a wide stage built in the central square of Akikuruno City. It was more than twenty meters long, two and a half meters tall, and about ten meters wide. It took up one-third of the square's space. Behind it was a metal bracket that was more than ten meters tall and used to set up the lighting equipment and various tools needed for the concert. It was also used as a support frame to block the rain.
Of course, this was just a rough look, but the equipment installed inside all used technology from the Rubik's Cube world. In terms of sound and light effects, it was definitely the best in the world.
Sei Itō, who led everyone to the stage, took out a controller and pressed the key with his thumb.
"Deng!" In an instant, a soft sound was heard. Several bright lights shone on the stage from all angles, slowly moving along with everyone.
"How is it? Are you satisfied? "Sei Itō asked everyone who was looking around with a smile.
As an outsider, Nagasawa Masami was the first to withdraw her gaze and asked Sei Itō, "What about security?"
"When the time comes, I will assign a group of police officers to maintain law and order in the periphery." Sei Itō turned to look at Nagasawa Masami and explained. Then, he smiled and pointed at the bottom of the platform, less than half a meter away from the platform, where several square black pillars were placed at specific intervals on the ground. "Do you see that?"
Following Sei Itō's finger, everyone's gaze fell on the pillars.
Sei Itō replied and pressed a button on the control panel.
"Buzz ~" In an instant, a buzzing sound was heard. Dozens of thin red laser beams instantly shot out from the pillars and connected with each other. It formed a wall of lasers in front of everyone.
"Wow," Nagasawa Masami exclaimed softly.
At this moment, Sei Itō took out a rock and threw it at the wall out of mischief and to make everyone realize the danger of the laser wall.
"Hiss …" In the next moment, just as the stone was about to touch the laser curtain wall. More than a dozen laser beams instantly shot out from the pitch-black pillars that were adjacent to each other. They hit the gravel. In less than a second, the gravel was turned into a handful of dust and scattered with the night wind.
"These laser beams are very powerful. Each one can directly penetrate a three-centimeter thick alloy steel plate. Even if there is a blind person who breaks through the periphery and comes to the edge of the venue, it won't be good." Sei Itō turned his head and said to the stunned crowd.
"Then what if a monster comes here?" As a singer who may participate in the concert, Yui Shigaki couldn't help but ask.
Immediately, everyone's eyes gathered on Sei Itō, waiting for his answer. After all, this was the only problem they were really worried about. If it couldn't be solved, they might regret it halfway.
"Don't worry, I won't forget about your safety." Sei Itō said with a smile, then pressed a button on the controller.
In an instant, with a sudden burst of bright white light, a huge pentagonal circle rose rapidly from the platform under everyone's feet. Kuraki Mai and the others were confused and slightly helpless as they scanned their bodies. It only stopped when it reached the top of the stage that was built for the concert. Then, it unfolded a huge transparent shield that looked like an inverted bowl on the ground, shrouding everyone and the entire stage. A series of flickering special rune characters revolved around the shield.
"This is the Yin-Yang Technique's Jura Vajra Defense Barrier. If a monster really escapes the city's defense system and comes here, this barrier can protect you from the monster's attack until my subordinates come to rescue you." Sei Itō explained to everyone.
This was the first time Kuraki Mai and the others were so close to a traditional Yin-Yang Technique barrier and were protected by it, so they looked around excitedly. From time to time, they would reach out and touch the void in front of them to feel the existence of the barrier.
At this moment, Kuraki Mai finally believed what Sei Itō said to her. When no one was paying attention, she looked at Sei Itō with a complicated expression. She was now wondering if she could really be together with Sei Itō. After all, even though she was one of the top singers in the country, there was a huge gap between her and Sei Itō, who was obviously from a special noble class.
The sensitive Ito Sei immediately sensed Kuraki Mai's gaze, and then walked to her side without a trace. He reached out and held Kuraki Mai's hand, and turned to her with a gentle smile.
Kuraki Mai forced a smile back and continued to think about her own matters.
"Now you can rest assured." Sei Itō, who couldn't say anything for the time being, looked at Nagasawa Masami, Yui Niigaki, Hatsuon Okumura, Atsuko Maeda, Tomomi Itano, and Yuki Kashiwagi who had calmed down a little.
"Yes." Yui Niigaki nodded in response.
At this time, whether it's unrelated people like Nagasawa Masami, Kashiwagi Yuki, or related people like Yui Niigaki, they are more or less thinking about having a good relationship with Ito Sei in the future. Maybe in the future, there will be unexpected gains.
It wasn't that the three of them were thinking too much, but in the big dye vat that was the entertainment industry, if they didn't think too much, they would have been eaten until there was nothing left. How could they become popular?
Of course, they couldn't rule out the possibility that they were lucky and had someone backing them.
As for Hatsuon Okumura, Atsuko Maeda, and Tomomi Itano, who already had a good relationship with Sei Itō, although they also thought about it, compared to Nagasawa Masami and the other two, they didn't think much about it at all!
At this point, the people who had seen most of the stage didn't stay outside for long. They sat in Sei Itō's MPV and returned to the hotel. Then, under Nagasawa Masami's suggestion, they played crazily in Yui Niigaki's room until 11 o 'clock in the middle of the night, when they finished their activities and left, walking back to their respective rooms.
After Sei Itō sent everyone back to their rooms, he followed Kuraki Mai into her room.
"What's wrong with you today? You're not happy. " Ito Sei wrapped his arms around Kuraki Mai's waist from behind and pulled her into his arms. He let Kuraki Mai's back lean against his chest as he lowered his head and whispered into Kuraki Mai's ear.
"I'm thinking about our relationship," Kuraki Mai sighed.
"Our relationship?" Sei Itō asked, puzzled.
"I'm thinking about whether it's suitable for us to continue dating, whether it's from the age gap or our identities." Kuraki Mai, who wanted to have a good talk, directly told Sei Itō what was on her mind.
"You're worrying for nothing again," Sei Itō said helplessly. "Yes, you're older than me, but who can tell? If it's the first time they see you, who would think you're older than 25? "
"As for my identity, what identity do I have? I'm just a very capable Kamikaze, and most people don't even know about it. If I go out with you, I'll definitely be called a young man, a gigolo, or something like that. What's there to worry about? "
"…" Kuraki Mai couldn't help but fall silent. He thought to himself, 'That's right, my appearance has already returned to my youthful appearance after using the youth potion. As long as I'm not familiar with them, they won't say anything. As for his identity, it seems that other than me, no one knows that he might even be the head of a city …'
Thinking of this, Kuraki Mai's mood improved a little.
But then Kuraki Mai thought about it again. She wasn't an ordinary person. She was a celebrity. If she stayed with Ito Sei for a long time, his secret would be exposed sooner or later. Wouldn't the same thing happen when that time comes?
As a result, Kuraki Mai's mood fell again, and she fell into a state of conflict as she thought back and forth.
After a minute of silence, Kuraki Mai spoke again, "I don't think your family would allow you to marry an ordinary person who is so much older than you, right?"
"Uhh … I'm not sure. But I think they won't mind, "Sei Itō didn't expect Kuraki Mai to think about marriage.
"You're not going to use this as an excuse to break up, right?" Then, Ito Sei moved Kuraki Mai to the side and looked into Kuraki Mai's eyes with a frown.
"After all, we're not from the same world …" Kuraki Mai looked down and said.
"Nonsense, what do you mean we're not from the same world? We're hugging each other now, so how are we not from the same world? Let me tell you, don't even think about breaking up. I won't let go," Sei Itō said firmly.
