The Group A match was held at the "Modern Grand Theatre" in the city center, a high-end live theater that frequently hosts musicals. The official hotel was right next door, and the hotel chosen was the All Seasons.

Since each team has a different number of members, Mosse will assign them to pairs.

That is, a team of 2 people will be assigned to one room, a team of 3-4 people to two rooms, and a team of 5-6 people to three rooms. Teams with more than 6 people will not be prepared, since the competition requires a maximum of 6 people. If there are more than 6 people, it would be considered cheating, so it is understandable.

At this moment, the group boarded the carriage with the head maid's respectful farewell, and everyone looked exhausted and drowsy.

"Young Master, I wish you a great victory in this battle."

Bai Qiao gestured to the maids behind her to put the packed, colorful battle robes into the trunk of the car. These stage costumes were personally designed, maintained, and dry-cleaned by the head maid.

When it comes to clothing care, no one knows better than the head maid.

"As for the surrounding area, I will start designing it as soon as possible. In the next couple of days, Ms. Tianhai, the second-ranked artist, will meet with me. We will try our best to finish the surrounding area design, and you will be able to see it when you come back."

"Okay, sure."

Su Che thought for a moment and realized that the competition wouldn't require merchandise for the time being. Merchandise sales would only be a concern when holding a special live performance, so he wasn't in a hurry.

"Then I'll leave the house to you. We'll compete for two days, and we'll go home around the day after tomorrow."

"Yes, young master, we'll be waiting for you to come home."

Bai Qiao smiled and curtsied, successfully obtaining a kiss on the cheek from Su Che before he left, as a reward for his hard work during this period.

The vehicle sped away.

The maids watched their master disappear from sight before letting out a sigh of relief and then dispersing.

Of the entire family, only Bai Qiao remained to diligently manage it.

As for Miya and Jiang Nai, they bought tickets and went to the venue early to wait for the competition... they didn't stay at home at all.

-

……

At 8 p.m. that evening.

In front of the hotel.

After completing all the complicated procedures, Su Che and his group carried their luggage and prepared to head to their rooms.

After receiving the room key, An Qing was surprised: "Wait, why isn't my room the same as Cheche's?"

"Uh……"

The group exchanged glances, and finally Yu tide concluded: "Perhaps the Mosse officials don't know the relationships between the members of each team, so they just assigned them randomly. If you don't want to, you can apply to change rooms privately."

"!"

At this moment, Lin Xiao, who had gotten a great deal, grinned and said, "Impossible, absolutely impossible to switch! I finally got to stay in Su Che's room, so of course I have to follow the official arrangements! This is an order from above! How could I disobey it!?"

Sure enough, her room key was 1203, and Su Che's room was also assigned to 1203...

The others, Gu Zhi and Yu Xi, and Yuan Xiao and An Qing, were completely separated.

In this situation, the authorities really can't be blamed. They have no reason to care who is on good terms with whom in your teams. If they did, with 128 teams, the staff would be exhausted.

"Huh?! How dare you!"

"Of course! If you have any complaints, go tell my big drumstick~! Even if the sky falls down today, I'm going to lie in Su Che's arms and let him hold me until I can't breathe before I'm satisfied and fall asleep, hehe ...

"…………"

Su Che sighed, pulled back the cat that was about to scratch him in anger, and gestured to her with his eyes, "Let's talk things out when we get home."

Faced with the delayed reward, the house cat was still fuming, but had no choice but to settle for second best and go to sleep with the bird.

"Alright, Xiaoxiao, I'll let you have your fun. You've hit the jackpot today."

"Not just today, but also tomorrow night~ The ticket is for two days, hehehe..." Lin Xiao didn't forget to add insult to injury.

“&%¥#@…”

Amidst grumbling and cursing, the group took the elevator to the 12th floor.

-

Not long after.

Just as the six people came out, identified the direction, and headed towards their target room with their luggage, they were blocked by another group of people in the narrow passage.

Hearing the noise, Su Che looked up and saw five girls carrying instruments not far away.

For some reason, he looks somewhat familiar.

"They must be here to compete, right? After all, there are 32 teams in Group A, at least a hundred people. As for hotels, they're basically all clustered in two or three places," Lin Xiao analyzed.

"Yes, most likely. This is the closest place to the venue; it's only a 5-minute walk away."

Su Che stopped and planned to wait until the people opposite him went inside before going over.

The three rooms on my side are all in the far corner, so if the congestion in front isn't resolved, a lot of equipment could easily be bumped or knocked over, which isn't very safe.

"Huh—!? Are you guys part of the team that's performing tomorrow too?"

Just as the group opposite was about to go in, a girl of ordinary appearance who was in the lead also heard the sounds coming from their side.

She looked this way, her eyes immediately lit up as if she had spotted a handsome man, and she walked over right away—

"We are 'Paradise,' who will be on stage tomorrow. I'm the lead vocalist, Chie. And who are you...?"

She greeted us warmly, her sweet smile charming and endearing.

However, before she could finish speaking, her teammate grabbed the hem of her clothes...

"Chie! Come back!"

The girl with orange hair shouted.

"Huh? What's wrong...?"

"Are you stupid? That guy, doesn't he look like... Su Che? Holy crap, you forgot? Weren't we spying on them last night? Their team is 'Seven Colors'!!"

"!?"

broken.

It really is.

"..."

In just a few seconds... the entire "Paradise" was in a panic.

The match hadn't even started yet, and the lead singer had already gone over to greet the opposing team...

It's like you think you've got this in the bag, so you go around laughing and joking with your opponent, all smiles...

What appears to be a greeting is actually a provocation, making one vulnerable to being attacked.

At this moment, Chie's face was flushed red, as if it were about to bleed. Continuing to speak didn't seem right, but turning away without saying anything also seemed inappropriate...

Su Che was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to respond. He could feel that the cats behind him were full of hostility towards the cats next door.

The air was instantly filled with a sense of tension.

"Hello, please take care of me tomorrow..."

Seeing that each second was becoming a little longer, Su Che knew he couldn't stay silent any longer. He steeled himself and gave Qian Hui a way out, raising his chin slightly and gesturing with his eyes for her to go back inside.

Chie nodded like a chick pecking at rice, glanced at An Qing, and then quickly darted back to her own room.

"Ugh."

A few seconds later, only the Seven Colors group remained in the corridor.

An Qing sighed and said:

"1203...1204...The official team really knows how to arrange things. Putting the teams that will be competing the next day on the same floor, what does that mean?"

"Maybe it wasn't intentional..."

"Not on purpose? There are so many empty rooms, how come there are only our two teams on this floor?"

"..."

I have to say, Mosse's move was incredibly underhanded.

The gunpowder concentration was manually adjusted before the match, it was said.

Su Che shook his head, picked up his violin, and quickly walked towards his room.

As I passed by Chie's house, I noticed that they were diagonally opposite my own door.

In other words, Chie and one of Chie's teammates live in 1204, while the others are located in 1205 and 1206.

who can that be?

Su Che swiped the door open, stepped aside, and let Xiao Xiao into the room first.

The other girls also went to rooms 1201 and 1202 to store their luggage first, and then came to Su Che's room to fool around and linger.

Driven by curiosity, Su Che left a crack in the door and slowly took off his coat at the entrance, as if waiting for something.

Sure enough, not long after, Chie's door opened again.

Cheerful voices could be heard coming from inside.

"Everyone, don't forget to practice a bit more when you get back to your rooms, especially you, Yuki. Your piano accompanist still has a lot of issues, so practice more. Don't mess up on stage tomorrow."

The captain's orange cat voice came from inside, indicating that Chie must have been assigned to the same room as her.

Su Che squinted and peered through the crack in the door—

Soon, bassist Ayana and drummer Dango also passed by their room.

Ayana, carrying her violin bag, headed straight for room 1206, the door of which was diagonally opposite hers on the other side.

The incredibly stable drummer, weighing 210 pounds, moved forward like a tank, shaking the earth.

Therefore, by process of elimination, we can conclude that only one contestant remains in room 1205, which is directly opposite.

—Xiang Xuechuan.

Having made up his mind, Su Che closed the door discreetly.

Turning back, under Xiao Xiao's scorching, almost molten lava-like gaze, he seemed oblivious, using those last few seconds to ponder important matters—
