"Metis, stop saying these things. I must help them."

-

No one spoke at the coffee table for a moment. Mu drank mango juice with a straw, his eyes blank. At this time, he was arresting Metis in the spiritual world.

Xiaozhi didn't know what to say at this time. She just wanted to get through this meeting quickly.

Although he was determined to bring Xiaoxiang's personality back, Mu, who was always silent and always pushed around by others, was unable to take the initiative.

She hesitated for a long time, until Xiaozhi on the other side noticed it: "If you have anything else to say to me, please say it quickly, otherwise I have to go back."

Mu: "Oblivionis, does anyone else know about this?"

Xiaozhi finally lost his temper and slammed his cup on the table. "What's going on? Tell me clearly! If you can't explain it to me, I'm leaving!"

Mu was startled by oblivionis's sudden anger. In the past, Xiangzi would never get angry in this way even if she was angry. It turned out that she no longer concealed the difference between her and her original personality.

Regardless of whether what he said was appropriate or not, Mu asked, "That is, does anyone else know that you are not the original Xiangzi?"

Xiaozhi was stunned: "Ah? You actually figured it out?"

After exchanging souls with Xiangzi, he attended classes at school for a whole day and hardly spoke to anyone. How did Wakaba Mutsu, who wasn't even in the same school as him, find out?!

She quickly pressed her phone under the table and sent a message to Xiangzi: "That Ruoye Mu seems to know about our soul swap! What should I do? Should I admit it to her?"

On the other side, Xiangzi didn't expect this to happen. When did Mu have such a level of observation ability?

After thinking for a moment, Xiangzi decided to confess to Mu since he knew about it. Lupa on Xiaozhi's side also knew about it, and since he had a childhood friend who knew the truth, it wouldn't have any impact.

So she replied: "Since she found out, just admit it and tell her to keep it a secret."

Xiaozhi breathed a sigh of relief after getting the response. No wonder the atmosphere was weird from the moment Wakabamu arrived. His friend suddenly became another person. It was really hard to express this bizarre question.

Her attitude improved a lot, and she said to Mu: "Yes, I am not Toyokawa Shoko. This is actually an accident."

Mu: "Accident?"

Xiaozhi: "Because of some accidents, I exchanged souls with her. Don't worry, she will be back in a few days."

Mu raised his voice slightly in surprise: "Really? Xiaoxiang can come back?"

Xiaozhi hissed and lowered his voice, "Don't worry, Toyokawa Shoko told me that this is a secret, don't tell anyone else."

Mu hummed, and Xiaozhi continued, "The only people who know this secret are my friend Lupa and the magician Chen Mo who promised to help me. The members of avemujica will be meeting soon, so don't tell anyone else about this except these few people."

"I know, I won't tell anyone."

Mu felt an unprecedented sense of relief, perhaps because he had confirmed the news that Xiaoxiang, whom he knew, could come back. This time, because he spoke up, things not only did not get worse, but instead had a happy ending.

Having said that, Mu wondered if he could say more in the future!

Chapter 33: Master of C Chord

At 5 pm, Chen Mo, Aiyin and others gathered at Ring to try out the instruments according to yesterday's arrangement.

After Xiaozhi and Xiangzi exchanged souls, they thought they would encounter all kinds of troubles in life and would need to protect themselves. However, after getting over the initial panic, the two of them adapted to life on both sides at a very fast speed.

It seemed that Chen Mo's help was not needed for the time being, so he continued to busy himself with his newly formed band, which didn't even have a name yet.

Chihaya Aine sat on a chair in Ring's rehearsal room, strumming a guitar for a few verses. Then, with a smug look on her face, she asked, "How's my C chord?"

Xiao Deng replied blankly: "Very impressive."

Aine: "Yeah, I'm not just talking about forming a band."

Su Shi held the bass and became complacent after hearing Aiyin play a chord. She suppressed her dissatisfaction and asked gently, "Little Aiyin, is there anything else you can play?"

Aine fumbled with the strings: "I can do everything! G chord, A minor, F chord, I can do it! Let me see... Oh, I made a mistake, let me do it again."

Aine was still trying hard to adjust her hand shape, trying to play the chords smoothly. Riki, who was sitting next to the drum set, let out a long sigh.

Aine: "Rikki, why are you sighing? It's distracting me."

Li Xi: "You can't even play a chord properly and you want to be a guitarist?"

Aine: "Don't underestimate chords. There's a saying that goes, guitar starts and ends with chords! Rikki, a drummer like you, don't understand the secrets of it."

"what?"

Confidence is a good thing, but Aiyin wants to perform on stage without even mastering the basic skills. She is really too confident.

Chen Mo: "What a refreshing guitar playing! Anononono has reached a state where he sees mountains as not mountains and water as not water."

Aine: "I don't understand, but I just think of it as Momo praising me."

Chen Mo: "You're amazing! Much better than the guitarist from the band I'm a fan of, The End."

Aine: “Really?”

Chen Mo: "Really? The guitar she plays only makes a dull buzzing sound. It's not like you can play the guitar to make a real sound."

Li Xi: "No way, how could someone be worse than this guy? How did he do it?"

Chen Mo: "Because she bought a guitar instead of a bass, no matter how hard she played, she couldn't make any sound, and she finally ran away the day before the performance.

Our Anononono didn't buy the wrong bass, nor did he run away halfway, so isn't that a big deal?"

Aine finally understood: "Momo, are you mocking me?"

Chen Mo: "I think it would be better for you to turn into a pink panda and go on stage. It would attract more attention and contribute more to the band."

Aine: "That's outrageous! Is my guitar playing really that bad? Everyone, give me your opinion."

Besides Xiao Deng's all-around positive bot transformation into Ain, Su Shi responded with a fake smile, "Ain, your guitar skills really need to improve before you can perform on stage."

Li Xi bluntly said: "This level is simply unbearable to watch."

Chen Mo: "See, I was right, wasn't I? As expected, Aine should attack in pink panda form..."

Li Xi: "No, we're a band, we don't do that nonsense! And Chen Mo, do you think you're good at keyboard?"

Li Xi was so ruthless when he was under pressure that Chen Mo raised his hands in surrender: "I was wrong. I will practice again!"

"Alas. Still a long way off."

Li Xi started to worry. "I signed up for our band's performance at this weekend's intermission after the band withdrew. With our level, how can we have the nerve to perform in front of our seniors?"

"There's a performance this weekend..."

When Deng heard the news, she stood still, lost in some kind of worry. Her quietness went unnoticed. When Aine heard that she would be on stage in a few days, she hurriedly said:

"Oh no! There won't be enough time!"

Li Xi: "Yeah, it's mainly you and Chen Mo who are holding us back. Chen Mo can still manage, but you can't even play a chord..."

Aine clapped her hands. "We haven't decided on a band name yet! We haven't designed our costumes, our slogans, our social media presence, or even our makeup for the stage! So many things are still undone!"

Li Xi: "This has nothing to do with the band!"

Aine: "Why is it okay? What I'm talking about is the face of the band. Rikki, I think you don't understand at all. But don't worry, as the captain, I will take care of these important matters for everyone!

It just so happens that I came up with a few good band names today. Let’s take a look. For example, how about ‘Anon Tokyo’?

Riki's favorable impression of Aine began to plummet again. She angrily scolded, "Chihaya Aine, you're the one who needs practice the most!"

Deng: "Everyone, don't quarrel..."

The door opened with a bang, and Lenai, with matcha cream still on her face, walked in dragging her guitar case, temporarily attracting everyone's attention.

According to the agreement, Lenai should have arrived twenty minutes ago. Apparently, not only was he late, he also had a fight with the Matcha Dinosaur in the lobby before entering.

Li Xi felt his head getting bigger. "Wildcat, when you get to Ring, hurry to the rehearsal room. If you want to eat, wait until after rehearsal!"

Lenai plugged in his guitar and casually agreed, "Yeah. I'm going to play in a band."

Without caring about the lives of others, Wild Cat started playing Kasuga Shadow.

Su Shi: "Xiao Lenai, that song... forget it, you play it."

In a sense, Nagasaki Suyo has become desensitized to the song Kasuga Shadow.

After experiencing various setbacks, Su Shi finally understood that the revival of Group C would not happen overnight, and for now they could only start the current band.

-

The guitar used by Lenai looked very old, with traces of countless uses on it. It was definitely older than Lenai himself.

As soon as she started playing, she was immersed in it, humming along with the melody, and her performance was still close to that of a professional.

Everyone else was already used to Lenna's genius, but Aine's eyes widened as she was a bit shocked by the wildcat: "Wow, that's amazing!"

After finishing the song, Lenai smiled contentedly and prepared to unplug the cord and leave: "Satisfied."

Li Xi: "Don't leave, Wildcat. You need to play with the others - why are you leaving?"

Aine suddenly said, "Sorry, I remembered I had something urgent to do at home, so I have to go back!"

Before Li Xi could grab the wild cat, Aiyin was about to leave: "Huh?"

Aiyin bowed hurriedly: "Sorry, let's contact each other next time!" She hurriedly opened the door and ran away.

Chen Mo: ",,,, he really ran away?"

Deng didn't say a single useful word in this scene: "Aine, she's gone, and the cat is gone too."

Wildcat and Aiyin both ran away, Xiaodeng looked as dull as a humanoid, Sushi continued to pretend to be gentle, and Chen Mo was a super novice in keyboard playing...

Li Xi, who was not the captain, felt even more pressure than the captain at this moment: "What's wrong with this band?"

-

"It's over, it's over!"

Aiyin hurried back home and hid in her room without even saying hello to her mother.

She hadn't expected Le Nai's guitar skills to be so high. She hadn't noticed it before during the roadshow, but her solo performance in the rehearsal room just now was in stark contrast to Aine's own poor level.

"I was even bragging about being able to play G and F chords, but this is completely embarrassing! This is just a band for high school students to play, why do they set the standard so high?"

Aiyin cried out in pain while holding her head. She actually knew that she was a novice, but shouldn’t all the members of a girl’s band be novices?

What's wrong with Lenai's level?

Being embarrassed is a small matter. The key issue is that with a guitarist of Lenai's level, wouldn't I be just a supporting role on the stage?
