Joker's Band Game Story

"By the way, you'd better learn how to make matcha parfait, otherwise when Rinrinko isn't around when Lenne wants to eat it, you'll have to come and help out."

"Yes, yes, I understand."

Propping her head up, Momoka couldn't help but say that she understood what Ren Amamiya meant. After all, Rakuna was the boss's granddaughter and did need extra care.

This consideration also includes some reasons from Ren Amamiya. Shisen Tsuzuki did not allow Rakuna to eat matcha parfaits in the store for free. If she really didn't have to pay, Rakuna would show off wildly. It is necessary to control the child's diet.

Ren Amamiya, on the other hand, always makes sure Rakuna has a drink at the shop. Although he only buys her one matcha parfait a day, it's enough for her.

As long as she enjoys her meal.

While chatting with Momoka, Aine, Akari, and Sase also came out. Seeing that the three of them still looked confused, Ren Amamiya shrugged and said, "Obviously, you don't need to practice today, but you'll probably have to do a lot of extra training afterwards. I hope you can stick to it."

As far as Amamiya knew, Riki had been booking her appointments from today until the day before the live performance, and such a long booking process had cost her quite a bit of money.

However, it wasn't a particularly large amount, since there were student discounts, reservation discounts, and store employee discounts. This combination of discounts, similar to those offered during Singles' Day, made it affordable for her.

Lixi went out to work purely to earn pocket money, since nothing bad had happened to her family. Naturally, she had no worries about food and clothing.

As for why she doesn't ask her family for money... her older sister stopped asking her parents for pocket money after starting high school, so naturally she wouldn't ask for it either.

She always wanted to keep up with her older sister and learned from her in everything she did, no matter where she was.

However, in order to get the lamp on stage for the performance, Li Xi's savings probably shrank considerably.

〦〢tumor?!zero two ③?si〆pa sisi But she seems to enjoy it quite a bit?

Should we remind her that she could learn from the band and have the whole team go to work?

But it's hard to say. The way the lamp handles customers is even more difficult than with Pochi Sauce. Besides, RiNG doesn't lack night shift staff, and there are quite a few students working here.

Working at RiNG offers employee discounts and makes it much easier to book a practice room, so naturally many students come here to work.

But as I said before, Li Xi just needs to focus on his work, compose music diligently, and play the drums hard. Our Saint Aine has a lot more to consider.

Hearing Ren Amamiya's words, Aine immediately sighed, "Is she going to be so busy from now on...?"

"It's from Qunliao Luling (2) Ersansi Ba 8, so today I'm really giving you a day off to rest properly. From now on, you can practice every other day, and you don't need to practice so intensely anymore."

Ren Amamiya was well aware of Aine's guitar skills. Aine was talented and intelligent, so if the standard was just to perform on stage, there was no need to rush. Just perform normally.

He mercifully granted Aine the conditions to relax, after all, the children he didn't care for would be put under pressure by Lixi, and he trusted Lixi's level of pressure and Aine's ability to withstand pressure.

"It just so happens that I have some free time these days to properly organize the school festival. By the way, do you guys want to come and participate in the school festival?"

"School festival? Ms. Ren, is it at your school?"

Aine opened her mouth slightly as she pondered matters concerning Ren Amamiya's school.

Shujin School isn't particularly famous in Japan, but it seems to be quite good.

Other high school festivals? I'm really looking forward to them.

At this moment, Aine couldn't help but start muttering about the school festival. Although she had experienced the school festival in junior high school, perhaps junior high school and high school would be different?

She was indeed very curious about what other schools' school festivals were like, and Ren Amamiya would definitely be performing on stage then, right?

Chapter Sixty-Six: Are you targeting me?!

As it turns out, Li Xi sometimes oversimplifies things.

She did correct the score, but she was stomping her feet and looking at her phone irritably at the drum set.

The practice session had already lasted for more than half an hour, but Lena had not yet arrived at the practice area.

Because of two days of not getting proper rest, Li Xi was in a low mood and seemed even more difficult to talk to than usual.

Her state left the others at a loss for how to respond, and they could only watch as Lixi sulked alone.

"Didn't we agree to practice every day? This stray cat..."

Lixi looked at the sheet music in front of her with displeasure; she did indeed seem a little lost.

Should we bring the wildcats into the band?

If I bring them in, given the Wildcats' current situation, they have absolutely no sense of belonging to the team. If I don't bring them in, then I'll have to revise the sheet music I made myself.

"Today's practice..."

"Tch... I'm calling for help."

Lixi said unhappily, then took out her phone and quickly dialed a number. The other party answered the phone very soon.

"It's rare for you to call me, what's up?"

"I don't know where the stray cat went, and I don't have time to wait for her now. Could you come and help me?"

"Ah, Renai... Okay, I think I understand what's going on. Looks like I'll have to teach you some more cat-raising tips later. I'm on my way to RiNG now, just wait."

The person on the other end of the phone seemed amused and amused by Li Xi's words, which annoyed Li Xi.

What exactly are "cat-raising tips"? What do you mean by that?

But the other party hung up the phone, and all she could do was scoff.

"Practice your own positions first, and then start playing together when everyone is ready."

Lixi put down the phone and looked back at the others: "Let's start practicing now."

"Hey~ How could this happen..."

Ai Yin couldn't help but sigh, she hadn't expected Li Xi to be so hasty.

Damn it, if only Amamiya were here right now. Although I learned how to read sheet music from him, I still can't play it like they can just glance at it and know how to play it.

Damn it!

Is this the destiny of a beautiful girl guitarist?

She desperately hoped that Ren Amamiya would come to save her as soon as possible.

Perhaps it was her devout prayers that worked, and Ren Amamiya really did come.

"It seems I'm the only one who can help you."

Ren Amamiya made a dazzling appearance, and his presence clearly brightened the expression on Aine's face.

"Teacher Lian! What brings you here?"

Aine didn't realize what was going on, but everyone else knew what was happening with Ren Amamiya. The situation was exactly the same as before, and they had asked Ren Amamiya to come and stand in for them.

“Because Lixi asked me to come and help, you can’t treat Le Nai like a child.”

Ren Amamiya said something strange that puzzled Aine: "Can't be a child? Then what should we be?"

"Cat, just as Lixi said, she is a stray cat."

This isn't meant to criticize Lena, but rather to state an objective fact. Lena behaves like a stray cat, so we should educate her the way we educate a stray cat.

Asking a cat to come and practice on time every day is simply impossible.

"What should we do?"

Lixi crossed her arms and looked at Ren Amamiya, hoping to learn from him how to handle the problem.

"Ah, just tell her you have matcha parfait, and she'll come. You can put the matcha parfait on my tab."

Ren Amamiya proposed a great solution: stray cats are easily obedient as long as you give them food.

So if you want Lena to obey, you have to use something like this to entice her.

I don't know how Grandma Tsuzuki raised Rakuna, she turned out like this.

It's strange, it's really, really strange.

"understood."

Lixi understood at this point. She could also see that Lena was young and it was indeed difficult to reason with such a child. Instead, using food to lure her was more attractive.

"But it's probably not going to happen today. Let's wait until later. Add her as a friend on Line so it'll be easier to talk to her about these things. She knows how to use a phone, but she's usually too lazy to look at it, so you have to help her get into the habit."

Ren Amamiya casually mentioned why Rakuna had messaged him. Ren had taught Rakuna how to use a phone, so how could she not know how? But unfortunately, she didn't like looking at her phone at all. So even though she knew how to use it, she was too lazy to look at it. Usually, she had no desire to click on any of those little red dots.

If you had mild obsessive-compulsive disorder like Ren Amamiya, you'd probably find it difficult.

However, in a way, everyone can see that Lena's responses to their messages are unread, rather than read but not replied to.

"Then let's start rehearsing. I'll play Lena's part. Lead guitar, right? No problem."

Standing next to Riki, Ren Amamiya quickly glanced at the new sheet music.

His actions startled Lixi, as they seemed very familiar to her.

Back then, Xiangzi stood beside her like this, looking at the score, and was able to quickly adjust the score.

She's such a genius that Lixi feels immense pressure being around her.

That's terrifying, buddy. That's really scary.

Now that she has started composing music herself, she understands even more the gap between herself and Xiangzi, and this gap makes her even more concerned.

So what would Ren Amamiya, who is no less skilled than Xiangzi or perhaps even more so, think when she sees this score?

Although Lixi didn't say it explicitly, her expression clearly revealed what she was thinking.

Ren Amamiya didn't comment on it, but simply nodded calmly: "Okay, I've memorized the score. Shall we start practicing now?"

"Don't you have anything to comment on?"

Li Xi suddenly asked, and her words made Amamiya Ren grunt in confusion: "Evaluation? What kind of evaluation do you want? This song is pretty good."

"That's it?"

"Do I need to think of a few more words to praise it? It's good, that's all."

Ren Amamiya answered calmly, but Ritsuki didn't react the same way: "Don't you think this song is a bit...?"

"You want me to criticize this song? There's no need."

Ren Amamiya, on the other hand, felt that Riki was thinking some strange things. Could it be that she was some kind of masochist? Did she need to be criticized?

"Good is good, bad is bad. I'm too lazy to do unnecessary things. There's nothing wrong with this piece of music. It's fine as it is."

"But shouldn't we be able to do it better than Yin O〈Yi【〓VII罒屋揪事鸠捌?"
