Joker's Band Game Story

"Ah, Lena, you've come to perform again today."

Rinrinko, who was tidying up the table, noticed Ryuna's arrival and greeted her happily.

Lena nodded slightly: "Yes, I want to play the guitar."

"Okay~ Let's sit here for a while, I'll go adjust the equipment for you... By the way, would you like a matcha parfait?"

Rinrinko suddenly clapped her hands, remembering what Ren Amamiya had told her when they were in the shop.

'If Lena comes over, ask her if she wants a matcha parfait; I'll pay for it on the tab.'

'Hey~ Lian, you really like Lena, don't you? You've even prepared this for her~'

'After all, she's Grandma Tsuzuki's granddaughter, haha~'

'You're being so calculating, but you're just worried about Lena, right? Be careful she doesn't eat too much matcha parfait and get fat~'

'Her hair isn't orange, it's okay. No, you can only let her have one cup at a time, too much will upset her stomach.'

In Ren Amamiya's opinion, Rakuna is still a child and her body is fine. If she comes, having a drink won't hurt her.

As for the little money spent? I received a lot of help from RiNG, and it's no big deal to treat Lena to a few matcha parfaits; it's all about social etiquette.

Upon hearing the name "matcha parfait," Lena nodded immediately, "Yes, I want to eat it."

However, after hearing that word, she looked around, seemingly searching for Ren Amamiya.

"Lian...didn't he come?"

It sounded like they were a little disappointed.

Her words prompted Rinrin to reach out and pat her head: "Alright, alright, A-Lian is always running around, it's quite common for him not to be around... So, are you planning to eat first or play the guitar first?"

"Play the guitar!"

You could tell she had an unusual passion for playing the guitar.

"Miss Rinko, please take your order!"

Just then, two girls who were chatting nearby suddenly wanted to order. Rinrinko, who was quite busy at the time, called out to Riki, who was in the kitchen, to help: "Riki, come to the front and help out!"

Rina stood next to Rinrinko, blinking quietly as she watched her adjust the equipment. Only after Rinrinko finished did she speak, "Thank you."

She should say thank you when Rinrinko helps her; that's something Amamiya taught her.

"Did A-Lian teach you?"

"Ah."

Seeing Rinko's actions, Rinko shook her head with a helpless smile.

I don't know how Ren Amamiya taught her to make Rakuna listen to him so much.

"Okay, it's all set. Come and try it out!"

After Yoroi plugged in her guitar, she immediately started strumming.

The sudden sound caught the attention of two girls not far away, who were watching her play.

"very noisy……"

One of the pink-haired girls muttered something, but her words caught the attention of the brown-haired girl opposite her.

Is it too noisy...?

The pink-haired girl seemed to want to say something to the other person, but after quickly strumming the strings, Yoro immediately began to improvise.

She played the guitar rapidly, demonstrating her skill with it.

Very strong!

After giving up chatting, the pink-haired girl watched Yoro's impromptu performance and had to admit that Yoro's guitar skills were quite high.

How can they be so good? Are all guitarists this good?

After playing the music quickly for about two minutes, Yoro Nai unhappily unplugged the grounding wire.

"Is that enough?"

Rinrinko watched as Rakuna put away her guitar and asked her if she wanted to practice a little longer.

"Without lotus, it's boring."

Rinko shook her head helplessly at Ryuna's words. She didn't know when it started, but Rinko had become so attached to Amamiya.

She simply placed a matcha parfait in front of Rinrinko, who picked it up and began to eat.

"that……"

At that moment, someone suddenly stood next to Rinrinko and greeted her, but she didn't even turn her head and continued eating her parfait, seemingly unaware of the other person at all.

Seeing that the other party ignored her, the pink-haired girl who greeted Lena couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Rinko gently tapped the table: "Rakuna, someone is saying hello to you."

"Hmm? Oh, hello."

Lena heard the tapping on the table, looked up and hummed in confusion. After hearing Rinrinko's words, she said "oh," turned to greet the pink-haired girl, and continued to eat her parfait.

This answer was no different from not answering at all, making the pink-haired girl even more embarrassed.

She chuckled awkwardly twice, signaling to Rinrinko that she didn't need to continue, and then returned to her original position.

"Lenai, why didn't you greet them properly?"

Rinrinko felt guilty and thought she should teach Rakuna a lesson, just like Amamiya did, so she straightened her chest and reminded Rakuna to pay attention to manners.

But Lena kept her head down and went about her business: "Boring woman."

Fortunately, the pink-haired girl not far away didn't hear this, or she would have been furious.

However, Rinrinko's words seemed to remind Rana of something, so she took out her phone, opened it, and tapped on the LINE message that showed '99+'. Ignoring a bunch of red dots, she finally looked at a contact that she had pinned to the top.

'Where are you.'

After sending the message, she ate her parfait while staring intently at her phone, waiting for a reply.

Good, he saw it!

I am among the stars.

Stars? It seems to be in Shimokitazawa, right? If we go there now, it should still be in time.

He acted immediately on his idea, telling Lena to finish all the parfaits as soon as possible, and then ran off with the stroller.

Rinrinko was used to Ryuna always coming and going suddenly. Watching Ryuna leave the shop, she really wanted to know how Amamiya was able to educate Ryuna.

That's strange, really strange.

Meanwhile, Ren Amamiya, whom Rinrinko was concerned about, was backstage tuning his instruments.

He didn't bring his own drum set, so he had to borrow Fanxing's drum set, which is Hongxia's.

"Brother Lian is going on stage soon, I'm so excited!"

Hongxia was excitedly holding her phone in the corner, seemingly waiting for Ren Amamiya to appear so she could quickly snap photos.

Seeing the sparkling eyes in Nijika's eyes, Kita, standing to the side, seemed a little confused: "Um... is Ren-nii-san really good at the drums?"

"He's very strong. Not just guitar, he's also incredibly good at drums, bass, and keyboards, and he can even DJ."

At this moment, Ryo was introducing some of Ren Amamiya's special skills to Kita: "And as far as I know, he can even play the saxophone and harmonica. It is said that he is also very good at shaking the maracas and tripods. You could say he is an all-rounder."

By the way... are those guys in the back really going to go on a rock stage?

As Ryo introduced increasingly obscure topics, Kita, her face darkening, finally understood what it meant to be out of reach of everyone.

"If he's really as good as you say, then why doesn't he come and teach me?"

On the other side, Yutenji was leaning against the wall chatting with Hoshika. She learned from him that Amamiya Ren was very good at playing the drums.

However, she couldn't tell the difference between the drum kits during the band's performance, and she didn't know what was better about them.

All she knew was that the group playing the drums seemed to be very busy.

Can I really type it myself?

Yutenji couldn't help but think that she chose the drum kit because it was the only instrument that didn't require touching the strings.

Whether it's guitar or bass, she feels that practicing will injure her fingers. As a beauty blogger, she cherishes her hands very much, so she might as well just use a drum kit.

In addition, when she was tested, the staff said that she was suitable for playing the drums, so she spent money to buy a drum set. Although she recouped the cost of the drum set through live streaming and videos, the profit was not much. She felt that she needed to take it a step further.

"Maybe it's because he's not interested. Teaching people is a troublesome thing. Really, how would I know? You have to ask him. I don't even know what he's thinking."

Xingge clicked her tongue twice; she wasn't interested in this kind of thing at all.

Unable to learn anything from Xingge, Youtianji simply murmured a few "eh"s, leaning against the wall as she looked at the stage: "Speaking of which, isn't his performance next?"

"Hmm, shall we walk forward and see?"

"No, I'll just watch from behind."

"Hello, guest, you need to buy a ticket to come in."

Just as Xingge was about to say a few more words, she heard that Xiangzi seemed to have encountered a disturbance from guests not far away. She then greeted Youtianji and went to see what was going on.

As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw Xiangzi pulling a small cart, while a silver-haired girl was pulling the cart on the other side. The two of them stood frozen in place, like they were in a tug-of-war.

"Xiangzi, this is Amamiya's friend. Let her in. Put the money on Amamiya's tab."

Xingge spoke directly, and upon hearing this, Xiangzi slowly let go of her hand, watching the girl walk into the shop.

"Store manager, who is she?"

"You need to talk to Lena. She's a bit like a cat. You can't reason with her normally."

"cat?"

"You'll understand once you spend more time with her, it's nothing."

Xingge didn't say much. She watched as Le Nai walked into the shop alone, then walked over to her and picked her up, saying, "Lian is going to perform on stage later, so you just stay here."

As she spoke, she pushed her stroller to a place where it wouldn't block the way and handed her over to her younger sister, telling them to keep a close eye on her and not let her run wild.

After all, Lena might do something unexpected when she's in the mood.
