Chapters 1262 and 1271: We absolutely must set off fireworks on the rooftop! And then kiss!

In early August, the wildly popular drama series "Long Vacation," which had been airing from spring to summer, finally came to its finale.

The characters of Aoyama Chikako and Fukuyama Masaharu in the drama seem to have spent the transition from spring to summer with all the viewers, and are about to step into the bright and beautiful summer. The viewers also seem to have experienced their ups and downs in love, feeling reluctant to part ways.

In the final episode, it's said that countless urban men and women refused the unspoken rule of having a drink with their bosses and colleagues after get off work, rushing home just to be the first to see the ending.

Even nightclubs, clubs, and KTVs, which are usually busier as the night goes on, saw a significant decrease in customers on this day.

As a devoted fan of the TV series, Higuchi Ansa, a recent graduate who had only been working for half a year, mustered up the courage to say no for the first time. She hurriedly returned to her small apartment, set out snacks and beer on the coffee table, and waited for the finale to begin.

"It must have a happy ending! It must have a happy ending! It must have a happy ending!"

She prayed three times before turning on the television.

In the preliminary round of the piano competition, Masaharu Fukuyama, who plays the male lead, recalls the moments he spent with Chikako Aoyama. His emotionally charged piano playing moves the judges and gets him through the preliminary round.

On a midsummer night, the female protagonist, played by Chikako Aoyama, finally understands her own feelings and rushes to the apartment she shares with her boyfriend, only to find Masaharu Fukuyama setting off fireworks on the rooftop.

Why set off fireworks alone?

Aoyama Chikako, who had run up quickly, was a little out of breath, her eyes filled with questioning.

But at that moment, fireworks burst forth from the ground, illuminating the rooftop like a fairyland. For a moment, both of them were immersed in this beautiful moment.

Until the fireworks were about to burn out

"What brings you here?" Masaharu Fukuyama asked. "What are you doing here?"

At that moment, Aoyama Chikako's eyes were momentarily confused, but then became firm as she looked at Fukuyama Masaharu beside her in the glow of the fireworks:

"I'm here to kiss!"

"I'm here to kiss Sena-kun!"

"!!!"

Ansa Higuchi, who was watching TV, felt a jolt of electricity run through her ears when she heard this direct and bold conversation. The tingling sensation instantly traveled to her toes, making her toes curl up involuntarily!

Clutching the penguin pillow tightly in her arms, she made incomprehensible whimpering sounds from her nose and mouth, but her eyes remained fixed on the TV screen, unwilling to miss a single image!

Seeing Masaharu Fukuyama give Chikako Aoyama a fleeting kiss before lighting fireworks, Ansa Higuchi couldn't help but criticize the male lead's lack of romantic understanding. She even squeezed the penguin pillow tightly, twisting the penguin's smile into a grimace!

However, as the fireworks lit up the sky again, Masaharu Fukuyama suddenly turned around, embraced Chikako Aoyama, and kissed her passionately. Ansa Higuchi seemed to be satisfied and let out a sigh.

As the music played, the image of the two kissing under the flames seemed to be etched in one's memory!

After that, the two naturally ended up sleeping together.

"As expected! As expected! As expected!"

Higuchi Ansa kept muttering to herself.

"I knew it. Hehehe~"

The television program continued, and Higuchi Ansa felt a bit thirsty, so she couldn't help but take a sip of ice-cold beer.

After a minor hiccup in the final episode, the story continued.

Due to his outstanding performance in the preliminary rounds, Masaharu Fukuyama caught the attention of a music company and was considered for a potential career abroad. Ultimately, in the finals, encouraged by Chikako Aoyama, Fukuyama unleashed his full potential and won the championship.

Of course, this also means that Masaharu Fukuyama is about to go abroad to develop his music career!

Chikako Aoyama was both happy for him and disappointed, and quietly left.

However, during the celebration party, Masaharu Fukuyama, the main character, rushed out of the venue to look for Chikako Aoyama.

Masaharu Fukuyama, dressed in a formal suit, runs through the city streets in search of his lover, much like the opening scene of "Long Vacation," where Chikako Aoyama runs through the streets in a white kimono!

Like a perfect arc, it brought this blessed vacation to a close.

Finally, thanks to their mutual appreciation, the two met on the riverbank outside their shared apartment!

"Xiao Nan."

"Ok?"

"South~"

"Ok!"

Miss Nan

"!!"

Each call, each higher than the last, was like the most direct expression of their feelings, fully revealed between them.

In the end, as if to vent his emotions, Masaharu Fukuyama shouted the heroine's name at the empty river, and the two embraced. Like children, they continued to call out to each other!

Let's go to Boston together!

Masaharu Fukuyama extended a sincere invitation to Chikako Aoyama.

"(Together) we will definitely be happier than we are now!"

"So, come with me to Boston!"

Aoyama Chikako paused for a moment, not answering, but Fukuyama Masaharu, having already made up his mind, became somewhat domineering:

"What's the answer?"

"If you don't answer, I'll kiss you (I'll take that as a yes)!"

Ansa Higuchi, who had been watching intently, forgot all about eating and leaned close to the TV screen to watch the final scene.

The moment the music of "La La La Love Song" started playing, she couldn't help but get excited, as if she had won a battle herself.

On the screen, Masaharu Fukuyama gave Chikako Aoyama a quick peck, then they embraced and kissed again!

Against the backdrop of shimmering water, the image of the two embracing and kissing was deeply etched into Ansa Higuchi's mind, becoming the most beautiful image of love in her heart.

Finally, in a church in Boston, Masaharu Fukuyama and Chikako Aoyama held their wedding, a hurried affair that left viewers feeling satisfied.

Finally, as the ending theme song of "Long Vacation" played, a feeling of reluctance and satisfaction lingered in the hearts of the audience.

"From now on, I will definitely kiss my lover on the riverbank!!!"

"You absolutely must shout each other's names in the square! Then hug and kiss!"

"We absolutely have to set off fireworks on the rooftop! And then we'll kiss!"

"."

Similar thoughts have taken deep root in the hearts of countless viewers watching the finale of "Long Vacation"!

Those who acted quickly have already called their partners.

Early the next morning.

At the Jurassic Island resort hotel, Naoki Nagayama's family, Nakamori's family, and Kaneda are having breakfast together.

The island is semi-isolated, so there are no newspapers, but the hotel has satellite TV, and the restaurant's TV was broadcasting the morning news.

According to the fire department, the number of fire alarms surged in various cities early this morning, overwhelming the city's fire departments.

News anchors seemed unable to contain themselves while reading from their scripts.

"Analysis suggests the surge in fire alarms is due to numerous couples imitating a scene from last night's drama 'Long Vacation' where they set off fireworks and kissed on rooftops. The city's fire department advises everyone that setting off fireworks on rooftops is unsafe, and urges everyone not to act impulsively and cause irreparable damage."

According to relevant commentators, the scene in "Long Vacation" where fireworks are set off on the rooftop has a negative impact on viewers with immature minds. It is suggested that creators pay attention to the appropriate level of detail when writing scripts.

"At the same time, urban management departments in various regions will also discuss whether to strengthen the management of fireworks in cities."

"Now for the next news item."

After this news, the group eating breakfast fell silent. Naoki Nagayama, watching the morning news, was utterly speechless. He turned to look at Akina.

"The 'relevant creator' mentioned in this news article refers to me, right?!"

As everyone knows, the screenwriter of "Long Vacation" is Naoki Nagayama.

"puff"

Tsuruko over there couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahaha, he's practically calling out my name, Ni-chan!"

Upon hearing this, everyone at the table burst into laughter, even Xia Hua, who was eating, joined in the laughter.

Yesterday, everyone watched the last episode of "Long Vacation," and most people found it very touching, sweet, and romantic. Unexpectedly, news broke this morning that the drama had caused an increase in fire alarms.

"Well, it's just those young people acting on impulse, just imitating."

Akina smiled and reassured,

"Just wait until this hype dies down. The other scenes should be fine; kissing by the river is okay too."

Tsuruko interrupted while biting into her fried egg:

"I'm afraid the young couple might lose their footing and fall into the river, and then they'll blame it on 'Long Vacation'."

"."

These words made Naoki Nagayama and Akina exchange a glance, feeling that the possibility seemed very high.

"I need to give you some pointers."

Naoki Nagayama stopped eating breakfast, asked the hotel manager for a satellite phone, and called Otomo Yoshimura.

Several close friends have private phone numbers, and Yoshimura Otomo was already at the company at this time.

"Naoki-san?"

"Hmm, did you watch the morning news, Otomo-san?"

"That's not true."

He eats breakfast early in the morning and rushes to the company, at most buying a newspaper to read; he has no time to watch the morning news.

"Oh, then I'll explain."

Naoki Nagayama then explained the fire incident.

"I think it would be best for Masaharu Fukuyama and Chikako Aoyama to issue a statement, or to express their opinion in an interview, hoping that people will not imitate them."

"This might be difficult!"

Yoshimura Otomo shook his head. The young couple on screen don't care if you're a lead actor or not.

"Naoki-san's writing is so classic!"

"It's alright, this is just to show our stance, it's like a disclaimer."

Naoki Nagayama said,

"Otherwise, during the morning news, there were voices saying that I need to be more careful about the content when writing scripts."

"Hahaha, is that so?!"

As a close friend, Yoshimura Otomo laughed gleefully.

"Naoki-san is too thorough, so this kind of thing will also be attributed to you."

"."

That's undeniable; his novels and screenplays are all incredibly popular.

"Alright, alright. Issue a statement, and it would be best if the company also issued one."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

For tree enthusiasts, issuing a statement in the media is a very simple matter.

"Since there's an interview for 'Long Vacation' tonight, let's have Chikako Aoyama and Masaharu Fukuyama make a statement directly to the camera!"

"Uh-huh."

"How have you been on the island these past few days, Naoki-san?" After finishing their business, Yoshimura Otomo chatted with Nagayama Naoki, "Are you having such a good time that you don't want to leave?"

"Of course, you'll find out when you come over in a couple of days!"

"Haha, I'm really looking forward to it!"

"."

When Naoki Nagayama hung up the phone and returned to the restaurant, everyone else had already finished breakfast. He ate a couple of bites and then picked up Natsuka to go for a walk.

"Akito sack!"

Tsuruko snatched the little guy away first.

"Today, Hana-chan is going to play with her aunt. Ni-chan, why don't you take Taira out for a stroll?"

Watching Tsuruko carry the little one and go out with Akina, looking so happy, Naoki Nagayama glanced at Akina, only to see her shake her head as well:

"I'm going to spend this morning sunbathing with my mom, Naoki-san, you guys should come along too!"

"."

In the end, Naoki Nagayama and Taichi Kaneda became a couple.

Naoki Nagayama understood that Tsuruko wanted Kaneda Taichi to get closer to her family, so after exchanging a glance with Kaneda Taichi, he could only say:

"Let's go explore the island then!"

"On the island?" Kaneda Continent was quite happy; finally, he didn't have to play with the dog anymore.

"Hmm, the construction progress of Jurassic Park, I'll go check it out."

Naoya Sakata had said this many times before, but Naoki Nagayama couldn't bear to part with his wife and kept putting it off. Now that there are other people around, he naturally can't spend all his time with Akina.

"I'll be filming a movie here at the end of the year, so many sets are already being built!"

"I see!"

Kaneda Tairiku was delighted; he had read Naoki Nagayama's "Jurassic Park" many times.

Fuji Television.

Masaharu Fukuyama, Chikako Aoyama, and the others have been back from Boston for quite some time. They came to the TV station today for the final episode of "Long Vacation," which aired yesterday.

As the two walked through the television station building, employees greeted them along the way, and some younger employees couldn't resist trying to get their autographs.

This forced the two to hurry to the lounge, where they were finally able to have some peace and quiet.

"Fukuyama-kun, how have you been resting lately?"

Aoyama Chikako's face lit up with a bright smile when she saw Fukuyama Masaharu; it had been almost a week since they last met after filming wrapped up.

"It feels strange," Masaharu Fukuyama remarked. "I went back to my hometown, and every time I went out, people would exclaim in surprise, and many fans came to my door."

"Haha, this is what it feels like to be a celebrity!"

Aoyama Chikako comforted him,

"You'll get used to it after a while."

After the hugely popular TV series "Long Vacation," Masaharu Fukuyama went from an unknown newcomer to a rising star in television dramas, while Chikako Aoyama, who was already quite famous, has successfully joined the ranks of popular actresses and become a darling of the entertainment industry.

What Masaharu Fukuyama is experiencing now is exactly what Chikako Aoyama has already experienced.

"So how did Zhikezi-san deal with those fans?"

"Communicate with your agent to keep your schedule confidential, and try not to go out. If you do go out, make sure you're well-dressed," said Chikako Aoyama. "The most important thing is to leave the area immediately if you are discovered, otherwise people will keep gathering around you."

"Especially for handsome male celebrities like Fukuyama, be careful he doesn't get knocked unconscious and carried home by female fans~"

This is based on experience. In busy neighborhoods, whenever celebrities gather, crowds quickly gather. If it's a popular star, it might even cause a stampede!

"."

Masaharu Fukuyama feels that he won't even be able to go out to buy a cup of coffee in the future.

He shook his head and began discussing today's work with Chikako Aoyama:

"Zhi Kezi-san, before I came here, the company informed me that I needed to make some statements on the show to tell fans not to imitate scenes from TV dramas?"

"Yes, I received that too. It seems that after the finale last night, many people imitated the scene of setting off fireworks on the rooftop, causing quite a few fires."

Japan places great importance on fire prevention, as many buildings are constructed with wood, and a fire could cause significant damage.

"So what should we say on the show? The company doesn't have a clear script."

"To put it more officially, please don't take TV dramas as reality, and be careful in real life."

Chikako Aoyama said with great experience,

"It's just a statement, not even an apology."

"I see, then I'll follow Chikako-san's lead!"

"Leave it to me!"

With a broad smile, Chikako Aoyama patted Masaharu Fukuyama on the shoulder before heading to the makeup table to signal the makeup artist to do her makeup.

Masaharu Fukuyama glanced briefly at Chikako Aoyama, a slight tremor running through his heart.

Unlike Chikako Aoyama, this was his first time acting in a drama, and he was playing a couple with a beauty like her, sharing kisses and hugs on screen. He won't be able to get over that easily.

In a later segment of the program, the host asked the two individuals for their opinions on "Long Vacation".

Chikako Aoyama responded with a smile:

"This is a TV series about modern urban romance. After filming for so long, I've discovered that what I admire most about the female lead is that she's willing to speak out when she's in love, and that only by being honest with herself can she find love."

Masaharu Fukuyama responded with some emotion:

"For me, 'Long Vacation' is like a summer night's dream; after waking up, I can still cherish the beauty of the dream."

"Haha, Mr. Fukuyama has quite a few thoughts to share!"

The host said with a smile.

"Hey, after all, this is my first TV series."

"After last night's finale, I heard that many couples imitated scenes from the TV series, even causing fires. What are your thoughts on this?"

Regarding this matter...

Aoyama Chikako's expression turned slightly serious.

"I want to advise viewers who like this show that television dramas and reality are different, and I hope everyone will not blindly imitate the plots in the drama."

"Where is Fukuyama-kun?" the host continued.

"Ah, I think even if people want to imitate this, they should be careful. Love is precious, but life is more valuable."
