You also have to be by my side and always look at me

　　"Gulp."

　　Shinichi swallowed his saliva, feeling like his whole body was like a tight rubber band, unable to move.

　　He turned his gaze stiffly, and looked to his side little by little, where the second voice came from.

　　"...How? When we performed this part, they all expected NG more than five times, but I passed without making a single mistake. Even the director was surprised and praised me."

　　Ichika's smiling face and eyes were illuminated by electronic light and shadow.

　　"If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be able to act like this, right? Thank you for all this, Shinichi-kun."

　　"...You're welcome."

　　Shinichi pretended to be calm and answered.

　　His thanks were sincere and full of gentle emotions, but he didn't feel happy at all, he just kept hypnotizing himself. Ichika is able to act very well because of her extraordinary acting skills.

　　Luckily, Ichika is actually stupid. She probably doesn't know how to prepare chromic acid washing liquid unless she goes out to buy it...

　　Shinichi didn't want to think about it anymore, and quickly focused his attention on the movie in front of him.

　　After agreeing to disband the protagonist for the heroine, Ichika drags the protagonist into the laboratory. When she is about to get the chromic acid cleaning solution, the protagonist comes to life, knocks Ichika unconscious with a beaker, and escapes from the laboratory.

　　In the next plot, Ichika no longer appears.

　　This is indeed a small role that only speaks a few lines, but it surprises people much more than the main actors and actresses. The change in atmosphere of the entire cinema studio was the best proof, many people started to sigh.

"Scared me to death."

"Worthy of imitation",

"Darling, do you still dare to cheat?" etc.

　　Only Shinichi's mood is very complicated. It wasn't until the end of the movie, when the protagonist and heroine were living happy lives, and the lights were turned on, that he put away his constipated expression and followed Ichika to the exit.

　　"I think the ending is also quite confusing. It probably won't be a huge success. The director also said it was just a test."

　　While going down the stairs, Ichika stretched and laughed.

　　"I only have a few lines. It seems that I need to appear in a few more works before I can gradually become famous. This is my first time appearing on the big screen in a long time. I was quite touched."

　　Shinichi shook his head.

　　"No, if someone edited that clip and put it online, you would probably instantly become famous..."

　　"Is it true?" Ichika looked at him, a little happy and confused, "The president also said the same thing, but I don't know what he's excited about. I think I act very well, but compared to other people…"

　　"Look around."

　　Shinichi glanced at the audience leaving the theater with them, took off her sun hat and sunglasses, then moved Ichika's hair to look like the character in the movie.

　　Then, he imitated Ichika's voice, and said loudly:

　　"My chromic acid wash will not dissolve innocent people."

　　There was also some cold laughter, but it didn't have the cold emptiness that penetrated into the bones like Ichika, and it didn't have a hint of charm.

　　But even this was enough to make everyone in the narrow corridor turn their heads curiously, and subconsciously shift their gazes to Ichika next to him.

　　"...Shinichi-kun?"

　　Before she could recover from Shinichi's actions, Ichika looked into their eyes in confusion.

　　Regardless of whether there was a female friend beside her or not, all the men immediately backed away as if they had seen a ghost, some stuck to the wall, some fell to the ground, and they all looked at her innocent face with horrified eyes.

　　Ichika: "???"

　　(W-what's wrong? I shouldn't look so scary...)

　　On the contrary, the women's eyes lit up, they took out their phones and couldn't wait to approach her.

　　"She was the one who dissolved the corpse…"

　　"It turns out to be a real person..."

　　"Excuse me, can you sign?"

　　"Can you teach me how to prepare chromic acid cleaning solution..."

　　Ichika: "???!!"

　　Who knows how to prepare a chromic acid washing solution? It was just a prop given to her by the director!

　　"Wake up, time to run."

　　As the hat and sunglasses returned to Ichika's face, Shinichi's voice was heard.

　　Ichika asked blankly: "Run? Why are you running…"

　　Her next words, as Shinichi held her hand firmly, turned into a warm current stimulating her heartbeat, causing a blush to appear on her face quickly, leaving her speechless.

　　"Of course, leave as soon as they take our picture!"

　　Shinichi didn't talk nonsense to her. Seeing that someone had unlocked the screen, he immediately took her hand, turned the corner in front, and rushed towards the exit.

　　"Hey, wait a minute..."

　　Ichika only staggered for a moment, then quickened his pace, and was pulled by him obediently, with a confused expression mixed with blush.

　　At the same time, she heard Shinichi joking from ahead.

　　"How? Do you know why they are excited?"

　　"What…" Ichika finally regained her senses, and said with a bitter smile, "Rather than getting excited… Will I be considered a pervert who likes to dissolve others with chromic acid cleaning solution in the future?"

　　Nino and the others also said they would watch the movie... Then she had to explain that it was all an act, and she never intended to do it.

　　Ichika had been prepared to endure their frightened gazes, but as she thought about this, the smile on her lips deepened.

　　"Perhaps, like Spider-Man, Iron Man, or something like that, deep impressions can be quickly converted into fame, and that is a good thing. In the future, you will work more, and try more roles, and other things. Gradually it will get better.." Shinichi said a few words of comfort.

"Um, it's okay…" Looking at his back, Ichika saw Shinichi's hand holding his tightly.

　　The worry just now instantly disappeared from her mind, she lowered her head and blushed silently.

　　"By the way, Ichika."

　　Awakening from the fantasy that was starting to get strange, Ichika didn't dare look at him and kept her voice calm.

　　"What is it?"

　　The theater exit is directly ahead. Despite the passersby outside looking at them with desire, Ichika smiled.

　　"You performed very well. I have worked hard for you during this period. Please continue to work hard in the future."

　　Putting those messy fears aside, here are Shinichi's real feelings about Ichika's first appearance on the big screen.

　　Ichika stared at him blankly for a few seconds. Then, all her emotions melted into a satisfied smile, and the hand she was holding held tighter.

　　"Um, of course!"

　　(For you and for my dreams)

　　(Of course I will continue to work hard, so you should also be by my side and continue to pay attention to me)

　　(Shinichi-kun)
