Joker's Band Game Story

"Just asking, you don't have athlete's foot, do you?"

"Of course not! Don't say such weird things!"

Amamiya had to be careful, since it was common knowledge that even a beautiful girl's athlete's foot was still athlete's foot, and there was no attempt to beautify it.

So, out of concern for the safety of his washing machine, Ren Amamiya still asked the question.

Then she was so shy that she exploded and got punched by Tao Xiang.

"You really shouldn't say such strange things when someone is dying..."

Tao Xiang said this with embarrassment, and then she hurriedly went back to her room to change her clothes.

Ren Amamiya also changed into a new set of clothes, something that would be convenient for going out.

"Is this all you have to wear?"

Amamiya looked at Momoka's clothes; she still wore the same black pantyhose, the same shorts, and the same short-sleeved shirt with a thin sweater over it.

"What's wrong with you?"

Momoka, displeased with Amamiya's words, put her hands on her hips and retorted, but it was clear that Amamiya Ren had no intention of discussing the matter with her.

"Whatever you want, let's go, let's set off. You should still have enough money for the tram, right?"

"I still have this much money! Yes, I still need to find a job, a job!"

The moment money is mentioned, Tao Xiang starts thinking about finding a job again, and as for jobs...

"Well……"

Momoka stared at the recruitment board with shining eyes. Amamiya, seeing Momoka looking at the recruitment board with such enthusiasm, couldn't help but sigh: "If you want to find a job here, I can help you get a referral."

"Really?!"

Ren Amamiya could be considered her savior; the fact that he was willing to help her to this extent was truly... truly...

"But if you plan to work here, where do you plan to live?"

Ren Amamiya crossed his arms and asked again, seemingly more concerned about the question.

After all, he remembered that Momoka had said she was planning to find a place to stay in Kawasaki.

These words silenced Momoka. They were currently in Ikebukuro, about an hour and a half drive from Kawasaki to Ikebukuro. If they really planned to find accommodation in Kawasaki and work here, it would take them three hours to travel back and forth each day.

But the job here is really great. Not only is the salary excellent, but you also get all sorts of music-related perks and bonuses.

For Momoka, this place was simply too tempting for her to refuse.

"Isn't this A-Lian? Didn't you go to school today?"

At that moment, someone came out of the store and greeted Ren Amamiya in a very enthusiastic manner.

This also made Momoka aware of the other party's identity.

Ren Amamiya greeted her, "Oh, I had something to do today, so I took the day off. By the way, Rinrinko, isn't RiNG short-staffed right now? My friend is looking for a part-time job, do you think you could help her get a job here?"

As he spoke, he pulled Momoka over and made Rinrinko take a good look at her.

When Ren Amamiya pulled her like that, Momoka instinctively gasped, but she didn't let him let go, allowing him to hold her like that.

Noticing Ren Amamiya and Momoka's subtle actions, Rinrinko couldn't help but show a playful expression on her face.

"Your girlfriend?"

"Of course not."

Ren Amamiya denied it outright, unaware that his words had dimmed Momoka's eyes.

Perhaps she herself didn't even notice this gloom.

"Oh, what a pity."

Hearing Amamiya's words, Rinko pouted and said, and without a doubt, the regret she mentioned was that she hadn't heard any gossip about Amamiya Ren.

Bi Qi} Er? (3) Ling Si (10? 9) Qi San Si 〥 As far as she knew, there were quite a few girls who liked Amamiya Ren~

The era of the Big Girls Band led to an increase in the number of women playing music and following music, and Amamiya's good foundation naturally attracted many girls.

So she's quite curious about who Ren Amamiya will ultimately choose as his girlfriend.

Hmm~ Will he become a scumbag? After all, his face is perfect for being a scumbag~

Ren Amamiya was unaware that he had already been labeled by Rinrinko; he was simply introducing Momoka to her.

"Okay~ then come to the internship tomorrow~ remember to bring all your materials. Since you're Ah Lian's friend, I'll help you with this."

Rinrinko nodded in agreement to let the other party intern. After all, it's just an internship, so she would see how things went first, and if there were no problems, she would hire them.

Amamiya is fairly reliable, so there's no need to worry about him introducing people randomly.

However, Ren Amamiya still leaned close to Rinrinko's ear and whispered, "But Rinrinko, remember, whatever you do, don't give Momoka any alcohol."

"Of course we can't drink during work hours, hahaha, so you guys didn't come here just to talk about this, right?"

Rinrinko chuckled and joked, "Drinking during work hours is obviously not allowed, as for after get off work..."

This is a coffee shop, not a bar, so where would they get so many drinks for her?

After the banter ended, Ren Amamiya got down to business. He hadn't come here simply to find a job for Momoka; rather, he'd just happened to come across the job posting and decided to check it out.

"I'm here to record a song. I wonder if Mr. Tanaka is here?"

"What a coincidence, he happens to be here today. Since you said you wanted to record a song, just come inside and find him~"

RiNG is not just a simple livehouse; the fact that it even has a café is enough to show Tsuzuki Shisen's ambitions.

So Ren Amamiya usually records his songs here, and Rinrinko has listened to him sing here quite a few times.

(PS: Cyberpunk Dead Boy, the name of this song, was originally a song in the game, but because the lyrics contain the swastika symbol, it was deemed to contain the Will of the Dead and was therefore removed from all servers except the Japanese server, which is quite an interesting story.)

Chapter Forty-Three... Oh, it's just sheet music. I thought it was a love letter.

"Recording's done, recording's done! It felt so good singing!"

Tao Xiang stretched and looked outside as the sky gradually darkened. Although it had taken quite a while, she was in a very good mood.

Because there were only two people, the recording was specifically done by starting with their duet, and then recording the guitar, bass, drums, and keyboard in sequence.

It could be said that from the bass part onwards, Momoka was watching Ren Amamiya record the music all by himself.

The more Momoka watched Ren Amamiya's various performances, the more amazed she became by his talent. He was truly skilled in every aspect, which was terrifying to look at.

The term "all-rounder" is perhaps perfectly appropriate to describe Ren Amamiya.

Actually, Ren Amamiya himself didn't expect this. In this life, he was even more talented than in his previous life. Perhaps it was because of the so-called era of big girl bands? Or perhaps it was because everyone in this world played music? Anyway, he didn't understand, but he did learn a lot of instruments when he was young.

Once you grasp one thing, you grasp everything. With a foundation, the pressure of further learning isn't so great. Plus, he's quite talented. That's how Amamiya learned so many musical instruments, which made recording songs much easier for him, as he didn't need anyone else's help.

"Wow, this is really a fantastic song! The rhythm, melody, and lyrics are all great. I love it."

Tanaka couldn't help but sigh, feeling quite satisfied with the song.

After all, this song portrays Ren Amamiya's arrogance, and this arrogance is worthy of Ren Amamiya's strength.

Ren Amamiya can be perfectly described as young and vigorous, or rather, this word was specially prepared for her.

"So, should we still release it under the name 'Kurasu Akatsuki'?"

"Yes, let's keep this name."

Akira Kurusu is considered Ren Amamiya's stage name. He doesn't intend to reveal his real name, so all his music is released under the name Akira Kurusu.

However, he only writes down his real name and stage name when signing the contract, so if a thorough investigation is conducted, it can still be found that the song's owner is Ren Amamiya.

Ren Amamiya doesn't make albums for all his songs. Sometimes he only does them when he's interested, and sometimes he's too lazy to do them when he's not.

Anyway, it's not like before that it has to be released on CD, so there's no problem with online release. This song will also be released online as usual.

"But it's still free? You're doing charity work!"

"No need, free is enough. I didn't write this piece to make money."

"That's right~"

When Mr. Tanaka mentioned "free," he meant commercial use. Ren Amamiya's compositions are priced quite cheaply for commercial use, which is basically equivalent to free use. That's why Mr. Tanaka felt it was a bit of a pity.

But perhaps it is precisely because the music was not created with the intention of making money that it is more interesting.

Should I send you a copy of the audio as well?

"Of course, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Tanaka."

The audio is for later use in making videos. Ren Amamiya can just insert any picture and make a video. It's pretty easy to make; there are templates available. It will only take about half an hour.

After leaving the recording studio, Ren Amamiya returned to the café, where Momoka was already choosing her coffee, while Rinko was wiping the glasses.

Wiping glasses at the bar is often not because there are so many glasses to deal with, but because people don't know what else to do, so they just wipe glasses to kill time and avoid looking silly standing there.

"The same old routine?"

"Yes, the same old thing."

Ren Amamiya sat down in the chair, placing his guitar and bass beside him. He carried these two instruments with him every day, and it was indeed a habit.

However, his words piqued Momoka's curiosity: "The same old thing?"

"Coffee milk, would you like some?"

"Ah~ no thanks then, I'll have a mocha instead."

Upon hearing that it was coffee milk, a drink that sounds like something only children would drink, Momo immediately said, "What?"

Although she likes to add milk and sugar to her coffee, it doesn't mean she wants coffee with a strong milk flavor.

But it's only at this moment that you can really tell that Ren Amamiya is a child~

The thought of coffee milk appearing made Momoka sigh that Amamiya usually acted too maturely, and his occasional childish behavior was quite amusing.

"It seems like you're thinking about something really strange."

"Ah~ it's just my imagination, a misperception~"

Tao Xiang waved her hand casually, glancing around: "But it doesn't seem like there are many guests on weekdays."
