Game Market 1983 Chapter 206

Chapter 206

“And that's me. ”
“Ugh…!? ”
“What? Why!! Tsubaki would never have missed a sale. ”
The audience who enjoyed the concert said that the deserter was himself was in chaos.
Because of the four heroes who sold the Tsubaki title, he was close to half a million in single sales.
I didn't expect her title to reach Half Million when she was suddenly hospitalized and never interacted with fans…
But if you think about it, the Tsubaki song had a different concept.
That is not the case if you ask why the poor voice is leaping over the high notes.
Her protective instinct for a clean appearance was also difficult to convince of the popularity she was currently gaining.
The reason she was so loved by fans that even the Pentagon's marketing team was... in her lyrics to a song that was more loving than any other character.
The songs "hug me" and "ifs" were all love songs that sang from the perspective of "women."
"Give me a hug" with a heart that wants to be with my loved one forever, and conversely, "What if" with a sadness that still has to be broken up is now ranked # 1 in women's favorite song, beyond the category of games.
The hospital broadcast live footage on one TV medium and Tsubaki's popularity was now soaring high enough.
She was saying goodbye to fans who loved her now.
“Our Virtual Idol… is a project team designed by Pentagon Soft. As you already know, Kang Jun-hyuk, Director of Pentagon, was also a game developer who I loved before I challenged Virtual Idol. ”
“ · · · · · ·. ”
“Every time I played a game he made, I was sometimes angry, and I was annoyed at how he ended up throwing it at me before he had a hard clearance. But I was always there when I finished the game, admitting," Ah! "”
On the stage, three meteors came up and stood side by side with Tsubaki.
Tsubaki turns slightly to look at his colleagues and greets them with a calm voice.
“As a fan of the Pentagon, like many of you here, I'm auditioning for Virtue Idol. But I kept one thing from the auditioning board. ”
“Secret?”
“What the...? ”
“Something's not right...”
As you hear chattering here and there, Tsubaki looks me in the eye from one side of the stage.
I gaze at her silently for a moment, then nod slowly.
Then Tsubaki nodded his head and turned his eyes toward the audience, as if responding to my sign.
“I have a rather unusual disease. Modern medicine has yet to discover the cause and the cure. Until I graduated from high school, I was just a normal girl who would be in any school. As I chose the department of sport for side activities, I was doing well soon, and an average student who wasn't that bad at grades or even grades... I started to feel a little dizzy one day when I graduated from high school and was dedicated to job activities, so I often stumbled a few times in my path.
At first I thought it was just anemia, but then I woke up one day and I saw her in the hospital. ”
“The doctor said that he wanted to get better, but unlike everyone else's expectations, I felt that my body was getting very little, but it was definitely getting worse. Then one day, I heard in a game called Virtue, I was recruiting a storm to replace the character's voice. I used to love singing, and I would hide the truth about the disease and I would audition. Pass the result...”
“I was very happy at first, but after a while, I got scared. If I hear about my illness and cancel my pass... what if I end up in the storm? ”
The audience who heard the story began to recognize the meaning of her story one by one.
“Don't tell me... Mr. Tsubaki...”
“Oh... I don't think so... No way. ”
“Don't do it.”
And in response, Tsubaki said with a slightly bolder smile than ever before.
“Yes, I am living a life of indefiniteness. ”
Tsubaki's expression of revealing his illness to his fans in the official position was very glamorous.
However, on the contrary, the look on the audience's faces was dazed as if they had been hit with a giant hammer.
“And that's why I'm dropping out of the first season of Virtual Idol. ”
“Ah…”
“After you've passed the audition. Coming up from Hokkaido, my hometown, to Tokyo, I first stopped by the Pentagon headquarters and looked for Kang Jun-hyuk, the director of Idol. Joon-Hyuk was also hesitant when he first heard about my illness, but he left me to play the character Sawano Tsubaki in a humbling request. And then something really strange happened. ”
“Just as much as recording a character's lines or singing, I forget about my illness. I enjoyed working on it. I wonder if my illness is healing on its own. That's why being trained in character acting and recording their songs has been the most exciting time of my life. Even though there were difficult moments, I was able to endure every moment...”
Tsubaki holds Kanna's hand by his side and speaks.
“I think it's because there are colleagues who have come with me to this moment. Virtual Idols aren't the only characters on the screen. Every single one of their voices has the bloody efforts and sweat of me and my colleagues onstage right now. So I hope you'll like another colleague who's about to debut at the beginning of next year. Although I'm not officially a singer, I think your support has created a lot of great memories. I would like to stand in front of you as early as possible...”
The more I spoke, the more I watched her in her voice, the more I felt a corner of my heart tingling.
After pausing on the stage for a moment, Tsubaki opens his mouth with a bright expression.
“I think this might be the last time I'm standing in front of you. ”
On the speaker set onstage with her greetings, her debut song, "Hug Me," began to flow.
The sound of a calm piano resounding on a cold winter night begins to wind up all over the beach park.
After a while, I walked a little distance from the stage, and I climbed up to the bridge overlooking the stage and lit a cigarette.
The moment the smoke of a single cigarette rising out of the red filter was dispersed in the night sky...
“Ah, snow...? Mom, open your eyes. ”
Elasticity leaked from the mouth of the boy who was staring at the stage of Tsubaki at the bridge.
Her voice echoes from the speaker, and the snow blossoms scatter across the stage as if they were little fairies.
“Wow... that sister is so beautiful... White eyes are dancing...”
The mother next to her voice, who was listening to Tsubaki's song, opened her mouth with a gentle stroke of her head.
“Right? But she's very sick now. ”
“Really? If I get sick, I should get an injection soon...”
In the warm words of the child melting the cold of Shirin Winter, I smiled and talked to him.
“Thank you... he knows her well, that's what you said. I'll be sure to pass it on to you later. ”
“Yes, thank you. Mister.”

On that day, the Tsubaki stage became a huge demolition, not only in the gaming industry but also in the general entertainment industry.
Of course, the popularity of Virtue Idol, including Tsubaki, was truly inspiring throughout the country after the concert of the Tokyo Games Show, although it had been asked to appear in various arts programs since then.
It was the best show in Japan, the Hong Baek Ga contest.
But God didn't give her a second chance.
After finishing all the appointments with his colleagues until the end of the concert, Tsubaki had to fall unconscious and go straight to the hospital.
The next day, when she opened her eyes to another dangerous affliction.
Kanna and her companions, who had stood by her all night, heard her condition and had no choice but to sulk.
Tsubaki's illness worsened more than ever because he took his‘ voice ’from her first.
Shhh... Shhh...
The sound in the quiet room...
After a short while, I was staring at her, and Tsubaki showed me a sketchbook with a message he had written.
- Thank you.
“Don't talk like that in the past. ”
How was your day? -
“Excellent. It was beyond compare...”
- Really?
“Yes...”
- Thank goodness.
I put down my sketchbook for a moment, and suddenly Tsubaki's eyes were filled with tears, staring out the window. The teardrops that were sobbing settle on her cheeks settle on the tip of her chin momentarily.
- I'd like to get back onstage, but I don't think it's working. -
“This isn't like you. Cheer up."
Then the nurse came in, opening the door to the room.
“Mr. Tsubaki, it's time for your injection. Sorry, visiting hours have expired in a few minutes. ”
“Oh, yes. Tsubaki, then I'll go. I'm coming with Yuki tomorrow…”
Then Tsubaki hurriedly wrote something on the sketchbook.
- Wait a minute.
“Yes…? ”
A moment later, Tsubaki handed me one of the cassette tapes that he had hidden in his pillow crabs and in.
“Is this for me? ”
With a warm smile on either side of his mouth, Tsubaki nods, looking up and down, and raises the front of the sketchbook.
- Listen to me when I'm alone. -
“Oh, yes... I will. ”
The way out of the hospital, back home...
With the audio system installed in the car, Tsubaki's tape is inserted, and for a moment the noise rang and her voice echoed in the car.
“Ahh! Ahh! Is this going to be a recording? ”
I felt her voice coming from the speakers for a very long time.
“They say it's recorded when the red light comes on. Ahhh!! I'm in!! ”
A smile was drawn on her mouth, as her cute voice blurted out if she didn't know how to use the recorder.
“Can you hear me? Ah! I don't know if I can say this... Haha... I'll say it if I can hear you. Today is two days before the Tokyo Games Show. After just going with Yuki, I leave a little message to Joon-Hyuk like this.
Well, actually, can you deliver this properly? I'm worried about that, too, because Yuki might misunderstand. ”
“Actually, my doctor told me this morning that I should cancel my concert. It can be a very dangerous choice at the moment, and even if you suffer, if you crowd the vocal chords because of the concert, you might wake up and lose your voice... I'll leave you a message just in case. ”
