Chapter 823 Idol?

Although another victim appeared, Duanmu Ai had no intention of helping at all. To be honest, in her opinion, this person might as well be dead - no matter who wants to publicly execute his own XP in public , there is only one ending: social death.

 So you'd better choose your own death.

 There is no use in living.

And those people have already set out to save people, so... let them go.

 You just need to support them mentally.

 No, it seems that I can’t support it mentally.

Of course, Duanmu Ai has not been idle. The Phantom Thieves have not dared to cause trouble recently, and she is unwilling to interfere in this matter. So the next question is to investigate why the television becomes a channel to connect to the subspace.

 That's right, why a TV? After that, Duanmu Ai also tried many things, such as glass, mirrors, computer screens and so on. But none of these work, only the TV can, which is very strange.

Lumière didn’t know about this either, but she came up with an idea - since it is possible to enter subspace from a television, could it be related to the television? After all, the TV station sends out signals and the TV receives the signal. If the TV station is affected by something special, then it might also affect the TV.

Hmm, I have to say that Lumière’s guess is quite reliable.

Of course, not everyone can enter a place like a TV station, but for Duanmu Ai, this is not a problem. As a demon summoner, she can certainly find many commissions. In fact, there is one commission that suits her very well.

 The commission requirement is to provide round-the-clock personal protection for an artist idol. The reason for choosing the Demon Summoner is also very simple - after all, the Demon Summoner has great strength and privileges. Artists and idols will always encounter some troublesome things, and if the Demon Summoner can use his own privileges to solve it, that would be a good thing.

 Because of this, the remuneration for this work is also very high, not even a fixed remuneration, but a 5% dividend from the idol's remuneration.

 This is no longer a small sum of money.

Logically speaking, such conditions should be good, but in fact not many people have taken up this task. The reason is very simple, that is, the rewards are high and the requirements are also high - in addition to requiring the demon summoner to be highly skilled, Specially limited to women, and preferably young women.

 So now everyone is paralyzed.

 Obviously, this requirement is difficult to find.

So when Duanmu Ai came over and asked if she had a commission from a TV station, the intermediary almost gave her the commission without hesitation.

 “Specially requested to be a woman? Or a young woman?”

 Looking at the order form in front of him, Duanmu Ai looked disgusted.

 “What the **** is this?”

"Oh, just go and give it a try. This commission has been pending and no one has answered it. We are also very embarrassed. Besides, Xiao Ai, your strength is here. The other party is just an artist, so it's not a big deal. If If you dare to have any thoughts towards you, I’ll just beat you back and it’ll be over.”

The middleman said it is simple, and it is indeed simple. Demon Summoners have a transcendent status. Although they do work similar to mercenaries, in fact, high-level Demon Summoners are basically considered to be inferior to even local government officials. That kind of person, let alone an idol artist, may have tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of fans, but in the eyes of the Demon Summoner, he is nothing more than an actor.

"Okay, I'll go take a look. I hope it's not too much trouble."

 Accepting the commission and setting a time, Duanmu Ai went to the coffee shop near the TV station and met with the client.

 “Hello, I’m Inoue from NR...”

 What appeared in front of Duanmu Ai was a man who looked to be in his thirties, wearing a suit, a social look, and glasses. He handed over the business card nervously, and Duanmu Ai took it and glanced at it.

 “So, can you tell me what your commission means?”

"Of course...but before that, could you please summon the Demon? Sorry, I just want to confirm..."

"no problem."

Duanmu Ai didn't care about Inoue's request. She turned her right hand and took out the devil summoner. The next moment, Alice appeared next to Duanmu Ai.

 “This is...your demon?”

 “That’s right.”

 “Is she strong?”

 “Are you serious?”

Facing Inoue’s uneasy inquiry, Duanmu Ai snorted.

 “There is no electronic demon in this city that is her match.”

 “Well…it doesn’t need to go to this extent…”

Hearing Duanmu Ai's answer, Inoue's expression was a little complicated, but he looked at Duanmu Ai carefully, and then looked at Alice.

 “Duanmu Jun...are you interested in entering the entertainment industry?”

“No, I can’t sing or dance, and I don’t have any hobbies in this area. Let’s talk about the commission.”

"Ah, I'm sorry... do you know Xiao Lishi?"

"I don't know, I'm not interested in these." Duanmu Ai shook her head. She had never been interested in idol stars.

 "That's it... uh... actually the commissioning work is very simple. We hope you can serve as Xiao Lishi's assistant."

"assistant?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Ai frowned. Mr. Inoue also hurriedly explained to her.

To put it simply, their company promoted an idol girl named Kujigawa Rise some time ago, and she became an instant hit. She is now considered a popular idol singer. Speaking of which, Duanmu Ai seemed to have heard similar things from girls in her class, but she was really not interested in these variety show gossips at all.

Of course, there are many famous people, and Xiao Lishi is no exception. She has encountered some troubles recently. For example, an equipment suddenly breaks down during a performance, and when I go home to sleep at night, I feel like there are ghosts knocking on the window outside. This hit Kujigawa Rise's nerves very hard. Although she still tried hard to persevere, she still became haggard day by day.

Of course, the company cannot ignore this. After asking, some professionals gave their opinions, thinking that this may be the work of electronic demons. After all, they always take good care of the equipment and inventory it before going on stage. Even this will destroy it, so the only one who can do this kind of thing that doesn't talk to you about scientific principles is the electronic demon.

If this is the case, then it will be useless to increase the security, and the only way is to rely on experts in dealing with electronic demons-demon summoners.

 But of course, this is not an easy thing.

 The life of an artist is full of flashes. It is not impossible to choose a demon summoner at random, but this will cause bad rumors to spread to the outside world. After all, if artists are targeted by electronic demons, fans will feel uneasy. In addition, if the Demon Summoner is a man, there is also the possibility of scandals.

But the problem is that it’s not easy to find an older demon summoner. Idols have a full schedule of work and life every day, and the elderly don’t have the energy.

 Besides, in terms of social status, devil summoners are much higher than idol artists.

 That's why the company thought of finding it through an intermediary, and that's why there were weird commissions that required young women with super strength.

 To put it bluntly, they hope to find a demon summoner who meets their requirements, and it is best to sign a long-term contract.

 “So troublesome?”

Hearing this, Duanmu Ai didn't want to work anymore. She just wanted to find a reason to join the TV station instead of being a nanny. And he has to work day and night to stop himself from doing such troublesome things.

"If that's the case, I won't do it. I have to go to school myself and don't have time to be a nanny for others all day long."

 I thought it was something that could be solved in a few days, but you actually planned to do it for a long time? If you can't get into the TV station, you won't get in. Wouldn't it be the same if I sneak in?

 “Please also think about it.”

Seeing Duanmu Ai was leaving, Mr. Inoue stood up nervously.

"The remuneration can be discussed... No, I know it's not a matter of remuneration, but it is really a very important moment for Xiao Lishi. The child is worried every day, but he still grits his teeth and works hard... But we know this It has reached its limit. If she cannot relax and rest, she may collapse directly on the stage. Although we have also said whether we should temporarily push it away for a while..."

“It’s impossible for me to be her nanny all the time.”

Duanmu Ai shook his head, and when Mr. Inoue heard this, he thought for a moment, and then his eyes lit up.

“Then, can I ask you to take care of her at least until the end of the month? There will be a competition at the end of the month, which is also the key to determining her idol career..."

 “Okay, if it’s only ten days, I can ask for leave.”

Since I am the principal, it is quite easy to give yourself a leave note.

Since Duanmu Ai agreed, the next step would be much easier to discuss. The two parties discussed it and eventually, Duanmu Ai would appear next to Kujigawa Rise as a trainee assistant. This situation is actually very common. Especially for female idol artists, it is more convenient to be taken care of by women of the same age, and there is no need to worry about any scandals.

 And Duanmu Ai also has ten days to visit the TV station to conduct investigations, which is considered a good deal.

Without further ado, after the two parties signed the contract, Duanmu Ai followed Inoue to the office.

The decoration of this office looks very good, and there are many employees inside. It gives people a very formal look. Duanmu Ai has received several commissions related to the entertainment industry in the past. Many black-hearted offices are either in remote locations or the employees inside are vicious gangsters. At least at first glance, they do not seem to be engaged in serious business.

 As for this family...it doesn't look big, but it does a serious business.

After arriving at the reception room and sitting down, Duanmu Ai poured a cup of tea and drank it nonchalantly. A moment later, there was a knock on the door.

 “Mr. Inoue? I am Riyo.”

 “Oh, Xiao Lishi, come in.”

 If nothing else, Duanmu Ai had to admit that the voice of this girl named Kujigawa Rise was very unique, quite pleasant, and had a very special charm. It's not like she hasn't heard the vocals of some idols, but compared to those vocals, Kujigawa Rise's voice seems to be quite right...how to put it, it's very interesting anyway.

At this moment, a girl with a pair of ponytails and glasses opened the door and walked in.

Judging from the appearance, the Kucigawa Rise in front of her looks like a cute girl that can be seen everywhere. At least she can't tell that Kucigawa Rise looks like a big star or a popular idol. She wears a pair of rustic glasses. Looking a little uneasy, she walked in the door and was startled when she saw Duanmu Ai, then hurriedly lowered her head.

“Ah, hello, this is the first time we meet. I am Rise Kujigawa.”

 “Hello, I am Duanmu Ai...”

Facing the other party's sudden greeting, Duanmu Ai had no choice but to put down his teacup and nodded. For some reason, after hearing her answer, Kujigawa Rise seemed to have a hint of dissatisfaction. She turned her head and looked at Inoue.

“Mr. Inoue, is this the person who will be my partner for this concert?”
