I'm here to form a band, what do you want to do!

Because her tone was so fierce and her method was indeed unreasonable, Shiina Riki shut up and turned around to help him borrow the instrument.

Looking at Pochi-chan standing there at a loss, Chihaya Aine, who had just been hit hard, took the initiative to speak: "You are also practicing guitar. This guy called you here, so his level must be very good!"

"Chihaya-san, don't make yourself miserable." Ito Rin, who had been demoted to this guy, spoke softly.

"Coach, you're meddling too much!" Chihaya Aine said dissatisfiedly. Seeing Pochi-chan's cute and helpless look, her motherly love suddenly overflowed in her heart.

Wow, I just like kids like this, just like Toumo Mio!

Ahem, it’s better not to be as heavy-handed as her.

"Let me tell you, I'm really good at playing the guitar. I'm going to perform in front of hundreds of people!"

"Hey..." Ito Rin rolled her eyes.

He was really convinced. What kind of people are these?

Then he was filled with fear when he thought that Chihaya Aine seemed to be the closest member to a normal person in the entire band.

Are you really going to go on stage? Are you really going to go on stage?

It's not a serious competition anyway. He could even leave the problem to Pochi-chan. Maybe he could even practice two songs in two days. There's no need for him to get involved with the band for such a thing!

Thinking of this, Ito Rin saw Nagasaki Suyo beside her and figured out a lot of things.

Ito Rin would be a complete fool to think she could avoid the band when she's in a relationship with Nagasaki Motoyo.

Shiina Riki helped him find the keyboard. While looking at him suspiciously, she discovered that the pink-haired girl had hooked up with someone else.

The girl that Ito Rin found was actually looking at her with admiration on her face.

No, what did this person say?

"That's amazing." Pochi-chan praised sincerely.

Of course, it’s not about Chihaya Aine’s guitar skills, but about the fact that she can perform in front of hundreds of people without any psychological burden.

"Hehe." Chihaya Aine scratched her hair embarrassedly when she was praised like this for the first time. When her eyes swept over Ito Rin, she found that his eyes were full of disgust.

This guy is really hard to like, only Soyorin can tolerate him!

Chihaya Aine looked at everyone one by one, and when she felt like she was about to go on stage, she suddenly noticed a familiar figure coming to the door.

She has light green hair, a calm face, a long skirt that covers her knees, and light-colored socks at the end of her long white legs. She is a charming and beautiful girl.

Having said so much...it’s actually their opponent, Ruo Ye Mu.

Could she be Ito Rin's last resort?

Wait, if it were her, at least Kasuga Kage would definitely be fine, but this is too perverted.

"Xiao Mu? Why are you here?" Nagasaki Suyo was the second one to notice Wakaba Mu.

She has very complicated feelings towards Wakaba Mu.

I deliberately avoided her during this period, but unexpectedly, Ito Rin met her.

Nagasaki Suyo no longer needs to ask Wakaba Mu for help. To be selfish, she has lost her usefulness, and even the act of passing the blame is not worth Nagasaki Suyo's effort. What really makes Nagasaki Suyo alert at this time is that in the strange future, Ito Rin will be with her.

In order to avoid such a thing from happening, not only should we take action in advance to let her know that there is no chance, but we should also cut off all contact with the alliance.

but……

"Ito-san." Wakaba Mutsu didn't answer, but just looked at Ito Rin.

"Hmm..." A look of confusion appeared on Ito Rin's handsome face.

Is today an unlucky day? Why are all these weird things happening?

If I had known this earlier, I would have checked the almanac before going out.

"Are you going to perform too?" She noticed the keyboard next to Shiina Riki.

Although he had no intelligence, Ruo Ye Mu was still very clear about the levels of several people in the band. No one could play the keyboard, and only his brother who was sure about playing the piano could take on this job.

"Oh, so it wasn't you who called her here." Nagasaki Suyo sneered and put her arm around Ito Rin.

"Of course not. Didn't I tell you? If we bring the other team's guitarist here, what's the point of the competition?"

"So, you can call me?"

"No." Ito Rin answered immediately.

If you answer yes at this time, does it mean you want to die or do you want to die?

Rolling her eyes at him, Nagasaki Suyo looked at Wakaba Mutsu, "Yes, because the band's guitarist had something urgent to do, Ito helped to fill in."

“…” Ruo Yemu remained silent.

When it was their turn to go on stage, they had to put off saying anything they wanted to say until later, so they hurriedly ran backstage, leaving only Wakaba Mutsu and Goto Ichiri behind.

"..."

"..."

The two looked at each other, then quickly turned away. After confirming with their eyes, they knew that it was the other person who didn't want to talk.

But this was actually more comfortable, as they didn't have to worry about being asked questions, which made both of them feel relieved.

Backstage preparation room.

"What's going on?" Nagasaki Suyo rubbed his brows, "Why is she here?"

"To gather intelligence," Ito Rin said seriously. "After all, they'll be facing us next, so it's normal to observe the opponent in advance."

Shiina Riki squinted at him and asked, "Do you take us for fools?"

"Fools? You guys?" Ito Rin was stunned for a moment, as if she was struggling with something.

"Mr. Ito, Mr. Ito, stop trying to be clever. Have you really memorized the music score?" Nagasaki Suyo got down to business first, putting her hand on Ito Rin's shoulder to ask him to stop mocking Shiina Tatsuki.

"You're insulting me." Ito Rin said in a deep voice, "Don't forget, I was the one who gave you the music sheet. I listen to you play it every day, so how could I not have memorized it?"

"That's good. How's your keyboard skills?"

"Shigasaki-san, strictly speaking, this is the second time I've touched a keyboard in my life."

"The second time?" Nagasaki Suyo and others were stunned.

This is the real truth. The first time was when Ruoye Muqiang bought him that expensive toy, but he didn't dare to touch it at all.

"It's okay to be funny at other times, but we're about to go on stage, don't make jokes like this." Shiina Riki smiled bitterly, "Don't really treat us like fools."

"It's true. I'm not lying to you. If you think about it, you'll understand. Since I can play the bass, why should I waste time practicing the keyboard?"

At this time, Ito Rin no longer had the arrogance she had at the beginning.

"What about your confidence?"

"I've always been very confident." Ito Rin said as a matter of course.

"..."

Shiina Riki took a deep breath, as if trying to absorb the anger in his heart, at least not to vent it now.

I might as well fight him to the death on stage in front of hundreds of audiences.

"Shiina, don't listen to his nonsense. He's definitely trying to scare you. He hasn't..."

"Mygo Band? Are you ready? It will be your turn soon."

The door was pushed open and Shiina Riki's colleague looked at them with a worried look on his face.

"There's no soundcheck yet, is that really okay?"

Shiina Riki decided to throw in the towel. He knew there were four people to take the blame if he made a fool of himself on stage. "It's okay."

"Is it really okay? Do you want to cancel it?"

"No thanks, senior. Everyone, pack up and get ready to go on stage."

"..."

Several of them were silent and picked up their instruments. Fortunately, they did not wear the costumes that the band had customized some time ago for today's performance, otherwise Ito Rin, who stood out from the crowd, would have stood out even more.

"I wish you success." Behind the scenes, the band about to go on stage could hear cheers from the front and the previous band's curtain call, and the staff gave them a high five.

"Thank you."

Chihaya Aine was the first to get out.

The bands that often perform at the Ring these days, although not very famous, still have a large audience, which is much better than the situation when people walked out of the venue when they first performed on stage.

"Hello, we are the Mygo band!"

The crowd in the audience obviously noticed something was wrong. It turned out that the cat-like guitarist had disappeared, and was replaced by a boy!

No, this is still a girl band!

"Chihaya-san, what's going on?" Those who came to support included Chihaya Aine's friends. They gathered near the stage and shouted loudly amid the noise.

Ito Rin plugged in the power and made a little noise when tuning.

Shiina Riki, who was always keeping an eye on him, showed a look of despair.

It seems that this really won't happen. Fortunately, Nagasaki Motoyo came to comfort her. Ito Rin must be sure before she goes on stage.

What an impatient woman.

"I'm sorry, the guitarist has something urgent to do and can't attend the event during this period." Chihaya Aine clasped her hands together and apologized to the audience.

While apologizing, his eyes couldn't help but scan the audience below, trying to find Pochi-chan.

Because of her understanding of this type of socially anxious character, her targets were always in the corners.

Sure enough, when the noise from the audience gradually died down, Chihaya Aine discovered where the two of them were.

Phew, she can’t let her fangirl down.

Pochi-chan in the audience didn't notice the pink-haired guitarist's sense of responsibility towards his fans. She just stared at Ito Rin standing in front of the keyboard with wide eyes.

"Ito-san... can you play an instrument?"

"Of course he can." Ruoye Mu said happily, "Not only that, but also the music that can make the whole world surrender."

"..."

Pochi-chan looked cautiously at the taciturn pretty girl beside her, but she didn't expect that when she mentioned Ito Rin, her tone seemed to have changed.

"But we haven't heard of it."

"Huh?!" Wakaba Mu suddenly woke up from his own world and looked at Pochi-chan, "Are you and him?"

"We are in the same band, although we have never performed together."

After hearing her say this, Ruoye Mu came to his senses and looked at Pochi-chan with a much gentler look.

It turned out that he was the guitarist in my brother's band, and he was also the type of person who wouldn't have any romantic relationships.

"He doesn't play any instrument?"

"Yes, Senior wanted to invite him, but he kept saying he didn't understand anything."

Senior sister?

It seems that it is either that Hong Xia or Yamada Ryo.

As for Ito Rin saying that he couldn't play any musical instrument, Wakaba Mutsu was not surprised.

It seems that my brother in real life is still lazy at heart despite his hard work.

"You'll know soon." Ruoye Mu took out mango juice from somewhere, glanced at Pochi-chan, thought for a while, and took out a bottle of milk.

"Want to drink?"

"Here, thank you." Pochi-chan took it tentatively.

"It doesn't matter. I don't like drinking anyway." She said lightly.

"..."

This girl is so weird. If you don’t like to drink it, why do you carry a bottle of milk with you?
