Joker's Band Game Story

The only slightly troublesome thing about the Amamiya family is that they only have one toilet.

This is something he hadn't noticed before, but now he feels is somewhat inappropriate.

Generally speaking, larger houses should have two toilets, but I don't know why my house only has one.

It wouldn't matter if he lived alone on weekdays, but now that there's another person living with him, he felt he had to tell her so she could get things done in advance.

Otherwise, if you need to use the restroom, you can only go to your neighbor's house or run half a kilometer away to a public restroom.

"I'm not going... Wait, wait a minute!"

Momoka was playing on her phone when she suddenly remembered something and quickly stopped Amamiya Ren, who was already carrying a change of clothes and about to enter the bathroom. She stood up and sprinted to block the bathroom door: "You are not allowed to go in for an hour, no, half an hour."

Momoka's shy demeanor immediately made Ren Amamiya guess what was going on. What else could it be? If she was blocking the doorway but not going in herself, then it couldn't be that she had taken another shower that night and hadn't cleaned the inside; it could only be that she had just used the toilet and the smell was strong inside.

Since that was the case, he had no intention of going in, nor did he have any strange fetishes in that regard, so he took a step back, then another step back, and another step back.

Did you turn on the fan?

"what!"

It was only then that Ren Amamiya reminded Momoka to turn on the fan in the bathroom next time.

If nothing is done, how can the smell dissipate so easily with the door closed?

Momoka's reaction confirmed Ren Amamiya's suspicions. He watched as Momoka opened the door and then took several steps back.

"It can't possibly smell that bad!"

After turning on the fan, Momoka noticed that Ren Amamiya was standing a few meters away, and her face flushed red instantly.

She knows she doesn't smell good in the bathroom, but you don't have to be this far away!

It makes me sound like some kind of drug-making master.

"I can't back out, and I can't stay either. It was clearly you who caused the smell, but you're blaming me instead."

Ren Amamiya shrugged helplessly; he hadn't expected that in the end, it would be his fault.

And so Ren Amamiya witnessed what it meant for 'a girl's blush to be more beautiful than any sweet words,' as he was chased around the table by an enraged Momoka.

It turns out that you can't reason with girls when they're emotional; they're unreasonable at that moment.

Once Momoka was completely sprawled on the sofa, Ren Amamiya prepared to go in and take a shower.

What? You're asking if Momoka, who's currently sprawled on the sofa in an OR2 position, is attractive to him?

Sorry, it's immoral to do *that* to an idiot.

Of course, Ren Amamiya didn't say these words out loud, otherwise even if Momoka was exhausted, she would have given Ren Amamiya a couple of punches to vent her anger.

Stepping into the bathroom, there was no floral scent or foul odor, and the exhaust fan worked very efficiently, eliminating all the smells.

Amamiya was worried that the exhaust fan might not work properly after not using it for a long time, but it turned out to be quite efficient, and there was no smell at all.

He wasn't particularly averse to the smell. Back when he and his brothers were in a band, they were all poor and lived in a small, run-down house. The toilets there smelled much worse than this, but they got used to it, didn't they?

She filled the tub with water and began her bath. Amamiya Ren comfortably closed her eyes, stretching her body in the warm water.

'Boom dong dong'

Just then, Momoka suddenly knocked on the door.

"what happened?"

"Um... don't pour out the bathwater."

"What, you want a drink?"

Momoka's words amused Amamiya; what did she mean by "not pouring out the bathwater"?

"What?! I'm trying to save you water, you know? Save water! Don't talk to me like I'm some kind of freak!"

Isn't that perverted?

Ren Amamiya was somewhat skeptical, but he didn't ask any further questions.

　Ling Meng, the neighbor, recalled that Japanese people do have a custom of sharing bath water among family members, but he had never done so. Again, his parents were away from home most of the year, and he lived alone. How could he possibly save bath water?

Therefore, based on this cognitive error, he believed Tao Xiang's statement.

Naturally, he overlooked one thing: people who do this are usually family members, but are he and Momoka... family?

Especially considering the difference in gender, Momoka's implied meaning was something Amamiya didn't realize.

"Then you can add the water yourself."

Ren Amamiya took a refreshing shower and went back to her room to work on a video before going to sleep. Momoka, on the other hand, looked guilty and went into the bathroom with her clothes.

Although she had already taken a shower today, she still planned to take another one.

Sitting in the water, the thought that this water was the same water Amamiya had just used made her face flush red again.

She herself didn't realize that she had fallen in love with Lian in just one day.

Perhaps, when the other person appears in front of you when you are most at a loss, you can't help but fall in love.

Chapter Forty-Six: Lust, how terrifying!

A new day brings a new atmosphere, and especially since today is the last workday of the week, Ren Amamiya's mood is exceptionally good.

After all, not many students really enjoy going to school, right? Although adults often reminisce about their school days, they miss it purely because working is even more boring than going to school now! The school they miss is definitely not sitting in a classroom for forty minutes straight, without a phone, and obediently listening to the teacher's hypnotic lectures!

Another reason why Amamiya was in a good mood was that he had quite a few requests today.

More commissions mean more money. Although he's not short of money now, and could ask his parents overseas for money if he really needed it urgently, he wouldn't complain about having too much. Having money is definitely a good thing!

After getting up and changing his clothes, Ren Amamiya prepared to go to the kitchen to find some breakfast.

Just as he took out the ingredients, Ren Amamiya suddenly remembered something, so he went upstairs and knocked on the guest room door.

No one responded from inside.

He pushed open the door and found that Tao Xiang was still fast asleep in bed, looking like she was sleeping very soundly.

Sure enough! This guy just can't get up!

"Hey, Momoka, wake up, it's time to go to work."

Ren Amamiya nudged Momoka's shoulder, but she didn't react and continued to sleep soundly.

That being the case...

Ren Amamiya shook her vigorously again, and saw Momoka turn over groggily, turning her back to Ren Amamiya and continuing to sleep.

This reaction amused Ren Amamiya, who took off his slippers and kicked her in the back: "Get up!"

"Ow!"

The forceful push to wake her up did indeed get Momoka awake, but then she immediately threw a pillow at Amamiya: "Don't push so hard!"

"I've been calling you for ages and you still won't get up. If I don't try, who knows when you'll wake up?"

Ren Amamiya casually caught the pillow, then asked Momoka, "Or perhaps you'd prefer something else to wake you up?"

"Well... oh well, never mind!"

Momoka shook her head, deciding not to continue arguing with Ren Amamiya about this matter; she knew she couldn't win the argument.

As for what she's really thinking... is there even a need to ask?

Of course, I'd like Ren Amamiya to wake her up gently! Like licking her earlobe while whispering her name to wake her, or giving her a good morning kiss or something...

The lower part smells of peaches.

How could she possibly say such shameful things? So she quickly brushed it off, pretending nothing had happened.

Ren Amamiya couldn't understand what she was trying to do. Seeing that Momoka showed no signs of falling asleep again, he reminded her to change her clothes, wash up, and then go downstairs for dinner. He went downstairs to fry eggs and bacon.

He always keeps breakfast simple. He gets up early, usually around 7:00 AM, cooks and eats, and leaves around 7:45 AM. By the time he arrives at school, he's just in time for the morning meeting. You could say his timing is incredibly precise.

"By the way, about the school performance."

While eating breakfast, Ren Amamiya suddenly remembered the Diamond Dust performance and told Momoka about it: "After all, it was agreed upon and a deposit was paid, so it's not easy to cancel the show now."

Ren Amamiya and Makoto Niijima talked on the phone yesterday about Diamond Dust, and Niijima hopes that Ren Amamiya can persuade them to continue participating in the event.

Although Diamond Dust doesn't have a huge fanbase, so the cancellation wouldn't have a major impact, it would be difficult to find other bands to perform at this point in time.

After all, some aspects of the school festival require approval, such as personnel changes, which require resubmission, and the approval process takes time...

As for those old fogies who occupy positions without doing anything, this matter will probably take a lot of time, and the budget will need to be recalculated, which will be very complicated and subject to many changes.

"Then ask Nana and the others if they want to continue singing."

Tao Xiang didn't really have any opinion on this matter. After all, the deposit had already been spent, and it would be difficult for her to quickly save up money to cancel the performance if she wanted to get a refund now.

Therefore, she does hope that the former team members can participate in the performance.

“They said they couldn’t go because they need to attend training at the agency recently, and it’s a closed training program. Also, there are Diamond Dust fans at the school, and if we send Shin-chan over… they might not be satisfied.”

Ren Amamiya leaned back in his chair and told Momoka his thoughts: "Why don't you participate? As the original lead singer of Diamond Dust, you'll definitely attract attention, and you can also earn the final payment that way."

Are Diamond Dust popular? Yes, but not many, and they don't convert popularity into money to support themselves.

This is why the agency approached them. The agency could see that they were well-received but not commercially successful, and given that the girls were quite good-looking, they would definitely have no problem debuting as idols.

Momoka was unwilling to do so, so she withdrew from Diamond Dust, or rather, she was the only one who retained the original flavor of Diamond Dust.

"Final payment? Hmm..."

If it were any other reason, Momoka could refuse, but when it came to money, she had to think twice.

Without her, I am poor.

When someone is so poor they want to die, they will naturally seek ways to live.

If she doesn't go, she'll have to pay back the deposit; if she does go, she can get the final payment. She really doesn't need to have any trouble deciding which way to go.

"I understand, I'll go... I'll sing a few songs then?"

"There should be about three songs. I'll send them to you later. You can be the guitarist and vocalist, is that alright?"

Ren Amamiya plans to combine his solo performance with Diamond Dust, making it more eye-catching to present three songs directly.
