Chapter 77: The Female Celebrity Neighbor

Girls actually pay quite a lot of attention to the management of their figure and weight.

But in Ren Amamiya’s view, Mao Li Lan’s problem really wasn't serious.

Even if the weight increased due to increased muscle density, the body shape only increased slightly based on the original situation.

The fleshiness increased a bit, and the mature feeling became stronger.

In Ren Amamiya’s eyes, it was actually more feminine.

He actually preferred girls with a bit of fleshiness in their figure.

So Mao Li Lan’s type wasn't fat at all; it could only be said to be very fleshy.

"Sir!"

Just as Ren Amamiya was about to open the door to enter his home, a sudden voice from the side stopped him.

He shifted his gaze.

It was the neighbor from next door who had the incident last night.

He really hadn't noticed last night.

This neighbor actually looked quite outstanding.

"Sir, thank you for stepping in to save me last night."

"Don't mention it."

Ren Amamiya shook his head slightly.

He even felt that yesterday was a bit of meddling.

"What about that man?"

"He has already been controlled by the police."

"Are the crimes confirmed?"

"Yes, trespassing, attempted premeditated murder, and stalking."

Ren Amamiya nodded slightly.

Then he probably wouldn't be getting out.

A charge of attempted premeditated murder already guaranteed that the man wouldn't be able to get out for at least three years.

Trespassing and stalking were bonus items.

They could add some more bonus items to the three-year sentence.

He then noticed that the woman had an extra scarf around her neck.

Remembering the strangle marks on the woman’s neck last night, he could probably understand.

"Is your neck okay?"

"Yes, it’s okay."

The woman subconsciously touched her neck, her expression a bit complex, but she shook her head.

"There’s some damage to the throat."

"Compared to being strangled to death, this situation isn't very serious."

"It’s just that my celebrity work will have to stop for a while."

"You’re a celebrity?"

Ren Amamiya looked at the woman in front of him with surprise.

He knew this woman looked quite good, but the fact that she was a female celebrity was truly a surprise.

This time it was the woman’s turn to be surprised.

She was quite popular at this time; it turned out her recognition in the young people’s circle wasn't high.

"Excuse me."

"After being saved by you, I haven't introduced myself yet."

"My name is Yoko Okino, an active female celebrity."

"Yoko Okino!"

Ren Amamiya had a hint of surprise on his face.

He had never connected the woman in front of him with Yoko Okino.

"You know me?"

He put away his surprise and nodded slowly.

"I do know of the currently popular idol female star."

"It’s just that I have to attend class and work part-time, so I don't pay much attention to idol dramas."

Yoko Okino then realized that the boy in front of her was still a high school student.

Studying is the norm for normal high school students.

And there’s also part-time work besides studying.

He should be earning some pocket money.

She also wanted to earn pocket money in high school, which was why she embarked on the path of a celebrity.

"However, why would a popular female celebrity live here?"

This made Yoko Okino a bit surprised.

"Is there something wrong with this place?"

"This is indeed a very high-end residential area, but your agent probably didn't tell you that this residential area has actually had quite a few murder cases."

"Eh?"

This was the first time Yoko Okino had heard such a statement.

"The house I’m living in now has had murder cases, and there were three of them."

"That terrifying?"

Yoko Okino couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Being able to live in a house where murder cases had occurred, she couldn't help but be curious if Ren Amamiya had any hobbies.

"You know there have been murder cases in the house, and you still live here?"

"It’s cheap."

Yoko Okino was stunned for a moment.

"How cheap?"

"The monthly rent is only 10,000 yen, and utilities are free."

"...That’s too cheap."

A monthly rent of only 10,000 yen; this price is indeed much cheaper.

Especially with free utilities, this also saves a large expense.

But even if she felt this rent was truly cheap, living in a room where a murder case had occurred would make people panic.

"However, is it really okay to live here?"

"Okino-san, what about you?"

Yoko Okino looked at Ren Amamiya in confusion.

"The house was invaded, and you yourself were almost killed by a troublesome person..."

"Don't you choose to move out?"

A hint of fear flashed in Yoko Okino’s eyes.

Who could be completely at ease after encountering such a thing?

But she shook her head helplessly.

"I won't move out."

"And I can't move out."

"Although I don't want to boast, my popularity is quite high right now, so there are many corresponding problems."

"Fanatical fans?"

Yoko Okino nodded helplessly.

"Although I’m very happy that many fans like me, the personalities of some fans are really too... impatient."

'Impatient' was too light a word.

The reason some fans are called fanatical is that their personalities are truly manic.

In order to have more contact with the idol in their hearts, they can truly stop at nothing.

Like stalking idols, finding the home where the idol lives, and so on.

Such things are what fanatical fans will do.

This is a high-end residence, so naturally, security issues can be trusted.

Although it failed to block a stranger, it can still block fans.

So not choosing to move out now is the correct approach.

Ren Amamiya was also very clear about this; this is the responsibility that public figures have to face.

After all, fans, whether fanatical or not, are something female celebrities need to absorb.

"Fanatical fans are just a pain."

"Pfft~"

Yoko Okino couldn't help but laugh.

"That’s right, sometimes fans really bring benefits to celebrities, but sometimes they also have to face the backlash brought by fans."

"We celebrities have to face the fans’ love."

"It’s just that sometimes we need to consider how to better face the fans’ fanatical love."

After her emotions eased, Yoko Okino looked at Ren Amamiya curiously.

"Do you live here alone?"

"Yes."

"Then aren't you afraid?"

"Not having money is something I’m more afraid of."

Yoko Okino paused slightly; she probably understood some things about this boy.

She reached out her hand.

"Then, please take care of me from now on, neighbor-san."

Ren Amamiya took a look and reached out to hold it.

"Please take care of me, female celebrity-san."
