Chapter 1332 Past is going to haunt you 2

Throughout the following afternoon, the members of Muse weren't in the mood to study and after school, they didn't even care about the practice, left the school early, and waited for him at the shrine before they went out together to visit UTX High School.

UTX High School is located in the Akihabara area in the Chiyoda ward of Tokyo, not far from Otonogizaka Academy.

Haru didn't drive his car and went out with everyone by bus, after all, there was also a bus right in the nearby area that could send them directly to UTX High School.

Sitting on the bus, the nine girls were chatting and discussing in excitement, their little faces blushing as if they were going on pilgrimage.

Haru was speechless and said, "Can you calm down a little bit?" He let out a sigh and said, "Have you thought about the reason why A-Rise invited you? If I remember, there is no intersection between you."

"It - It might not have been my imagination, but I might have seen Tsubasa Kira during our concert on Open Day," Hanayo said.

"Tsubasa Kira? Who is that?" Haru asked, however, he felt that this name was somehow quite familiar.

"That's the captain of A-Rise!" Nico looked at Haru in disdain and said, "You're our producer, but you don't even know the name of our rival? What are you doing?!"

"...."

Haru stared at Nico for a bit before he pinched her cheeks with both of his hands.

"Ouch! Ouch! What are you doing?!" Nico tried to escape, but somehow, she didn't hate the feeling when her cheeks were pulled by Haru.

"So do they think that you're a threat to them and want to destroy all of you?"

Haru wasn't afraid to think that A-Rise had planned something bad for Muse since, in his opinion, every woman in the entertainment circle was a scheming bitch.

A-Rise was able to have their current achievements, who knew whether there was any dirty transaction in it?

"Ugh... it shouldn't be like that, right?"

Haru's words were reasonable, and the girls of Muse were silent for a while, and their faces became solemn.

"I hope that's not the case, but you should at least be mentally prepared, not to be deceived by them in two or three sentences or else, it is too late for you to cry, after all, you are now an idol, and you will meet more people and a lot of things in the future, so remember not to trust strangers so easily," Haru warned.

Although Muse could be considered a professional to some extent, they were still too stupid and naive. In case their career became better in the future, they would definitely meet a lot of people who tried to deceive them or harm them.

Haru prayed that nothing really happened or else, the fish on Tokyo Bay became fatter.

"We know, we will be careful in the future."

The girls nodded with their little heads, their pretty faces showed a wariness, and they said in a serious expression.

However, after forty minutes...

"Wow! It's really an A-Rise! We're going to meet an A-Rise! Hanayo-chan, give me some of that paper, alright? I want their autographs!"

After getting off the bus, facing the three members of A-Rise who walk out of the school gate to greet them, Koizumi Hanayo and Yazawa Nicole rushed on like a bee that saw a flower.

Umi: "You two! You should pay more attention to your actions! You will have trouble Kira-san and everyone from A-Rise if you ask them for autographs as soon as you meet them!"

"If it is only an autograph, it is alright."

A-Rise's captain, Tsubasa Kira, put her finger on her chin and said with an idol-like smile.

"Eh? Is that alright?" Nico was overjoyed.

"Of course, but there are too many people here. Let's go to the school to talk first. I booked a box for everyone," Tsubasa said with a smile then glanced at someone in this group before guiding everyone to her school.

Tsubasa was very kind and polite, she didn't show any arrogance because of her high popularity.

"Oh... Oh... It's really an A-Rise! They're really thoughtful! Let's go!" Honoka said cheerfully.

Several other girls also nodded in agreement.

"....."

However, Haru twitched his lips when he saw one of the girls from A-Rise. He was also speechless when he saw everyone was everyone who became excited after their meeting with A-Rise.

Haru had told them not to trust a stranger so easily, but this was the result...

"..."

Looking at nine girls who walked together with three members of A-Rise, Haru could only let out a sigh in his heart since they were too easy to deceive, right?

Haru really worried about their future somehow but at the same time, he really sighed at this unexpected meeting.

Under the guidance of A-Rise, Haru and his team entered UTX High School.

As one of the few rare rich young lady schools in Tokyo, UTX High School is very luxurious. The school's building is a skyscraper, and the interior decoration is full of modern architecture.

The basketball court and swimming pool facilities are built inside the building, and only a larger field such as a running court is built outside the building.

This made Haru, who took the elevator to the restaurant on the sixth floor, sigh. He had to admit compared with UTX High School, Otonogizaka was like a school from a historical movie. Though, each of them had its own charms.

Walking inside the school, Haru felt slightly uncomfortable since UTX High School turned out to be an all-girls' school. Even though he had gotten used to visiting Otonogizaka in the past, it was different in this school since he could see a lot of girls staring at him.

The members of Muse also knew how big this bad guy's charm was and quickly gathered around him so no one would get close to him, just in case.

Haru was wearing a disguise, but it was only glasses. His glasses gave him the Clark Kent effect where people who weren't that close with him wouldn't recognize him, however, when someone was very close to him nearby, they would notice him easily.

"You have always been popular, Haru," Tsubasa suddenly said with a smile.

"Is this the reason why you have invited all of us here?" Haru was wondering whether this girl wanted to embarrass him.

"Of course not."

Unlike when Tsubasa met Muse for the first time, her smile was like an idol's smile, when it came to Haru, her smile was like a flower that was blooming beautifully which caused discomfort to the members of Muse, wondering whether their producer knew the captain of A-Rise, Tsubasa Kira.

They wanted to ask them, but they kept inside their mouths first until they reached the private box on the coffee shop within the school. They closed the door and blocked the view from outside which made Haru feel better.

"Before eating, let's talk about your reason for inviting us."

Nico and Hanayo were big fans of A-Rise so they were too nervous to say anything, the rest were either too nervous or it might be they were quite reserved that they stayed on competitor's turf, so Haru was the one who asked this question straight forward.

"Before answering this question..." Tsubasa took out a Viking Weekly Manga Magazine along with a notebook and handed it to Haru with a smile on her face. "Haru, can you sign my book?"

"...."

"Please!" Tsubasa looked at him with a puppy-like gaze and said, "I'm your loyal fan and I like to read all of your works!"

"Ok...."

Haru took Tsubasa's manga magazine and notebook, but he felt quite strange since Muse's greatest rival and his.... turned out to be his fan...

After signing both magazine and notebook, Haru returned to the notebook to Tsubasa, and she immediately held it in her arms as if she had obtained a treasure.

"Cough!"

Haru coughed and asked, "Now that I have signed your books, can you tell us, why did you invite us?"

"We're very curious as to why you have taken an interest in their group," Tsubasa said.

"Huh?" 9x

The nine members of Muse thought that it was a very unexpected answer.

"I mean, unlike before, you have become the richest man in the world and you are also the one who owns the television network that owns the Love Live franchise."

Tsubasa put her smile away and said in a slightly serious tone, "So after we have found out that you're their producer by chance, we have been watching all of you and collecting your information."

Haru didn't seem surprised when they gathered Muse's information since he didn't try to hide anything.

"Eh?" 9x

When they heard the number of school idol groups paying attention to their group, the nine girls couldn't help but show their surprise.

Eli couldn't help but say, "But we're only the 20th most popular school idol group..."

"Don't belittle yourself!"

Tsubasa waved her head, leaned forward slightly, and said with a smile on her face, "Kosaka Honoka, your singing and dancing are full of vitality; Ayase Eri, I heard that in the Russia ballet competition, you always take a top position; Nishikino Maki has a good composer talent; Sonoda Umi's talent as a lyricist is also good; Hoshizora Rin's physical ability is among the school idol group in this country; Koizumi Hanayo's voice can bring a harmony and bring more power in everyone's singing; Unlike the leader of the group, Kosaka Honoka, Toujou Nozomi is the one who has connected everyone in the group; and finally, there is the indispensable little demon Yazawa Nicole..."

After commenting on the nine girls of the Muse one by one, Tsubasa finally fixed her eyes on Haru, her emerald green eyes staring at him without blinking then said, "To be honest, I also understand why you have decided to choose them and I also can feel their potential, Haru."

"Umm... I know that it is a bit too late, but do you know Haru?" Kotori asked.

It had always been everyone's mind since the beginning since they felt that Haru and Tsubasa had known each other and their exchange wasn't like someone who had just met each other.

"Well, he's my ex-boyfriend, right, Haru?" Tsubasa said with a smile full of mischief.

"....."
