Shirou's clones number 30 million

Under her questioning gaze, Ogiso Setsuna walked to Shirou's side and suddenly began to sing.

The singing and music formed a perfect harmony, creating a feeling as refreshing as a gentle breeze.

With a gentle breeze, her hair danced in the wind, and her singing drifted further and further away.

Passersby were moved by the song and forgot what they were supposed to do. They gathered around to listen to the song, take pictures, and record the music. Before they knew it, the area had been surrounded by more than ten layers of people.

And it is still increasing.

"Both of them are amazing! Especially the older brother; he only had one guitar and no other instruments, yet he played such beautiful music."

'Even though Yukina-neechan and her brother haven't spoken in ages, they still manage to coordinate so naturally. She must sing this song all the time, right?'

About a minute later, noticing the people around her recording with their phones, Kitahara Koki suddenly realized what was happening and quickly took out her phone to start recording as well.

Compared to the passersby around her, she was standing very close, making it arguably the best spectator seat.

The sound quality recorded by the phone is also clearer.

As the music ended, Kitahara Koki was about to offer a few words of praise to the two when suddenly, a chorus of applause erupted from all around.

At the same time, shouts of agreement rose and fell in unison:

"Wow, that's amazing! I've never heard such a great song before. You guys are definitely going to be a hit! One more song, please!"

"How is this guitar played? The sound is so beautiful, it's like it touches the heart directly."

"I swear on my right, you guys will definitely become a global sensation in the future! Release an album soon, I'll definitely buy ten copies to support you."

"These two are playing some kind of curse... I have important things to do, but why can't I move on?"

"One more song! One more song..."

The extremely enthusiastic onlookers caused all three of them to show expressions of astonishment.

Shirou and Setsuna Ogiso exchanged a glance and then laughed.

"How about another one?"

"Sure, how about singing White Album?"

"no problem."

The guitar sounded again, and soon after, singing began.

……

"Why are there so many people over there? Could something have happened?"

As a relatively new singer, Eiji Yoshino has some fame, but his concerts are always packed with people, and his popularity is not very stable.

Therefore, he would perform open-air street music in various corners of the city during every holiday to build up his popularity.

This is an inevitable path for every singer, and a crucial hope for many underground singers to gain mainstream recognition.

The person who usually helps out has something come up today and can't come.

He originally wanted to take a day off, but then he remembered that his sister was home, so he asked her for help and started a new day of street performances.

After using the restroom, as he walked onto the overpass, he suddenly noticed a large crowd gathering at the spot where he had placed his equipment.

The place was bustling with noise, and almost every passerby stopped and stood there, forming a dense crowd.

"Has something happened?"

Yoshino Eiji immediately thought of accidents such as car crashes and man-made disasters, but looking at the boiling crowd of onlookers in the distance, he immediately dismissed the idea.

This scenario could absolutely not be an accident.

If an accident occurs, there might be some onlookers, but definitely not that many.

There are so many layers inside and out, it's even started to block traffic.

This scene doesn't look like an accident scene; it looks more like a performance by a super popular idol.

"Could it be that my sister did something? But with her singing skills, she shouldn't be able to cause this much traffic congestion, right?"

"What exactly is going on?"

As I pondered, a stealthy figure suddenly came into view.

Yoshino Eiji looked at her speechlessly, patted her on the shoulder from behind, and said with a smile:

"Isn't this my lovely little sister? Where are you going?"

"Ugh... Brother, I... um, I left for a little while."

"So who's there helping to watch the equipment now?"

"My friend! She's my best friend, absolutely safe and reliable."

"Is your friend some kind of super popular idol?"

"No, he's just an ordinary junior high school student, in my class."

As I descended the overpass and approached the outermost crowd, the sounds of singing and music carried on the wind gradually reached my ears.

It was a voice with great penetrating power, like a sharp arrow piercing straight into the heart; it was also like the light of dawn, cleansing the soul and giving one a warm feeling all over.

"Wow, that's amazing... The singing is beautiful, but the technique isn't particularly good. On the contrary, the guitar perfectly covers up the shortcomings of the singing, like a green leaf that makes the singing stand out without overshadowing it."

As Yoshino Eiji muttered to himself, a voice sounded beside him.

"Yes, I have never seen such amazing guitar playing skills before."

"Huh...!? Mr. Tami..."

"Eiji, do you know where your shortcomings lie?"

"I guess... he's just average in every aspect."

"Oh...? You finally understand?"

Mr. Tami smiled, his gaze passing through the crowd and settling on the two people at the very back.

“Listen, his guitar playing skills are excellent, but what amazes me even more is that he is completely focused on cooperating with another person.”

"Generally speaking, when one of the two partners is far more capable than the other, it can seem like the other is taking over the role."

"But he always played a supporting role, and used his superb playing skills to make the other person's singing even more outstanding."

"This is the first time I've ever met someone like this."

Chapter 195 People always yearn for what they don't have.

Chapter 195, Section 196: People always yearn for what they don't have.

As the song ended, shouts of "One more song!" rang out once more from the surrounding crowd.

Kitahara Shirou didn't pay attention to any of this. He took out his phone and glanced at it, only to find that more than twenty minutes had passed.

After thinking for a moment, he leaned close to Kitahara Koki's ear and whispered:

"It's almost time. Yukina and I will head out first. You should be fine here by yourself, right?"

"Huh...? Isn't my brother waiting for me to go together?"

Kitahara Koki looked surprised, glanced around at the layers of spectators surrounding her, and couldn't help but ask:

"And how are you going to get out of here?"

"Don't worry, I have a plan." Shirou paused for a moment, then added with a smile, "In fact, now is the best time. If we continue, there will only be more and more people, and it will be even more difficult to move forward."

"Okay, you guys go ahead then, see you later." Kitahara Koki nodded slightly.

Shirou handed her the guitar, then turned to Setsuna Ogiso and said with a smile:

"Let's go, Setsuna."

"With so many people around, there's no way we can leave, right?"

"Don't worry, come with me."

Shirou grabbed her arm, and with his other hand carrying the shopping bags, he ran quickly toward the crowd.

In the next instant, a narrow passage automatically parted in the crowd.

By the time those present came to their senses, the two had already run further and further away, gradually disappearing from the horizon.

Shirou stopped running on another street.

“Well… there’s no need to run away, is there?” Ogiso Setsuna said, slightly out of breath. “Just say the performance is over, and everyone should stop bothering us.”

“If I were busking on the street, of course I could do that, but the key is that it wasn’t my venue. I was just helping someone take care of their equipment and played a few songs on the side.”

However, I didn't expect the performance to be so good.

As expected of an A-level skill?

Such playing skills truly befit the name of a heroic spirit.

However, perhaps because Roma Shirou has always accompanied Nero, the skills he shared with Archer are more inclined towards ensemble music.

Initially, Ogiso Setsuna wasn't part of the performance, and her solo part always felt like something was missing.

"Oh, I see. I thought Kitahara-kun had suddenly started his underground singing career."

Ogiso Setsuna smiled slightly, her gaze fixed intently on Shirou, her expression filled with excitement:

"I had a really great time today, it felt like I sang karaoke for a whole day and night, there was an indescribable feeling of excitement."

"Kitahara-kun's guitar skills are amazing. Did you secretly practice these past few years?"

"Well... more or less," Shirou said casually.

"Kitahara-kun plays the guitar so well, is he planning to debut as a celebrity in the future?"

No, I have no such plans.

"What a waste! They clearly have such superb skills, yet they've been keeping them hidden. It's such a waste."

"I'm fine." Shirou smiled, then asked, "Speaking of which, why did you suddenly come over to play a duet with me?"

"I just finished my part-time job and was planning to go to a karaoke bar to relax, but then I heard someone playing guitar and thought I'd go check it out."

Such soul-cleansing music is truly impossible to ignore.
