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

"hehe."

"..."

The distance from Shimokitazawa High School to Fanxing is just enough to make people feel a little tired, but not breathless.

The three of them walked in while chatting.

Hong Xia took out a notebook from her schoolbag: "By the way, the general idea of ​​the script has been written. Would you like to take a look at it, Ito?"

Yamada Ryo didn't say anything, but his eyes, expectant of a good show, were already on him.

This made him feel a little panicked. What kind of script was it?

"Bring it here."

Since there is no way to avoid it, the brave Ito Rin chooses to face it calmly.

At worst, he could just pretend to be dead... After all, he was an editor, so he must have a reason to escape.

"Here, it may not be well written. If there is anything you don't like, we can revise it." Hong Xia seemed a little guilty and didn't dare to insist that it was like this.

Yamada Ryo stared at Hongxia's face absentmindedly, listening to their conversation absentmindedly until he heard the voice he wanted, then he smiled with satisfaction.

"Is that it?" Ito Rin closed the notebook and said painfully while rubbing his nose.

Hong Xia took the notebook at a loss. Judging from his expression, he didn't seem very satisfied with the plot.

"It's strange that I'd be satisfied. It's too bland," said Ito Rin.

"The story of the hero and heroine being together because of music is too cliché. Even if there are viewers, they will probably forget the content immediately after watching it once."

"I think it needs to be changed. Have you seen Four Lies? The reason it's so vivid in my memory is because Miyazono Kaoru's ending is definitely death. So why not just write me off? That would explain why I'm not in the band."

"In this case, the plot

The idea came to me: a handsome young man from the countryside of Hokkaido met a drummer on the streets of Tokyo..."

At this point, Ito Rin laughed, and Yamada Ryoya was amazed.

Whose drum set would end up on the street for no reason?

"Hurry up and tell me." It was Hong Xia who was completely focused on his story. Seeing that he paused, she hurriedly urged him on.

Actually, Ito Rin didn't have any good ideas. He was not a scriptwriter. He just read a lot of books and had simulation experience, so what he said made sense.

"…The boy was drawn to the drummer and fell deeply in love with music. However, just as their band was about to perform, he was diagnosed with a terminal illness. To prevent the girl from worrying, he concealed the news and disappeared from Tokyo a few days after the performance."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ito Rin, who thought this story was a good script, nodded with satisfaction.

Only after seeing the conflicted expression on Hongxia's face did he belatedly remember some details.

Wait, the plot of choosing to die alone because of a terminal illness, has this happened in the simulation?

"That's not right." Yamada Ryo said, "What about the rest of us? We can't let you two perform a one-man show, although I don't mind too much."

"Simple, just add some love triangle elements."

Ito Rin, Ito Rin, can't you control your mouth? Why did you bring up this kind of plot again!

"Hehe, a love triangle." Yamada Ryo spoke in a rhythmic manner.

They looked at each other, and an inexplicable sense of embarrassment arose in everyone's heart.

Fortunately, at this time, Kita and Pochi came and brought some news that was neither good nor bad.

……

"Cultural festival performance?" Hong Xia looked at the form in front of her.

This is a registration form for the Xiuhua High School Cultural Festival.

"Private Marseille! I apologize, I reflect on myself, I'm sorry Pochi-chan!" Kita Ikuyo carried her guitar on her back and banged her head against the table violently, her apologies ringing out from her mouth.

Beside her, Pochi-chan lowered her head, a heavy gravity emanating from her whole body.

"It's okay. We have nothing to do during the cultural festival. Senior Yamada is even so bored that she plans to just sleep through it. It's a good thing to have such a thing." Ito Rin said.

"If you didn't have to go on stage, this would sound normal." Yamada Ryo complained.

It’s a cultural festival, and it’s from another school, and it’s a performance for everyone together.

This thing does have a little appeal to her, provided Ito Rin doesn't stand by and watch the fun.

"There's no need to apologize, Kita-chan. What do you think, Pochi-chan?" Hongxia stopped Kita Ikuyo who was kowtowing madly, and her eyes fell on Pochi-chan.

It doesn't really matter to them. The main thing is Pochi-chan. She is so shy that she can't control herself when performing in front of dozens of audiences at Fanxing. If she has to perform in front of so many people at the school cultural festival with her friends and classmates, she might be scared and dare not go on stage.

Hong Xia really wants to help Pochi-chan change her introverted personality, but she can't be too hasty and can't force her to do something that she resists too much.

"I..." Pochi-chan's lips moved slightly. She looked timid on the surface, but she was already punching hard in her heart!

When the band encountered difficulties during the performance, guitar hero Pochi-chan came down from the sky and saved the whole show. After the performance, she left behind a handsome back, and when the fans asked loudly, she lightly said the name.

【Guitar Hero! 】

Just thinking about it can make people so excited that they want to fly!

"Pochi-chan? Pochi-chan? Pochi-chan! Don't get distracted while we're chatting!"

"Sorry sorry sorry!"

All in all, after experiencing the beautiful fantasy in her mind, Pochi-chan nodded firmly. With everyone here, this will definitely not be difficult.

"If I really want to participate, it seems that I don't have enough time." Yamada Ryo frowned in distress.

Kita Ikuyo, who couldn't bear to see her senior's expression, acted as a conversation starter: "Senpai, weren't you planning on sleeping during the cultural festival? Why do you still feel like you don't have enough time?"

"...What do you mean by sleeping? I was just replenishing my energy," Yamada Ryo said. "Our school's cultural festival doesn't have anything to do, but Nijiya has written a script, so it looks like we'll be stuck for a long time. Plus, someone's good friend invited us to the Noble Academy's cultural festival to watch the wind band perform."

"Yamada-senpai, let me correct a misconception." Ito Rin knocked on the table: "Soyo is a good friend of all of us, so he invited all of us."

"Ito-kun, has it actually come to the point of calling you that?!"

"Who is Soyo?"

"It's rude, but I don't feel like I'm good friends with her."

"See, Ito-kun, you are totally wrong." Yamada Ryo covered his mouth and said proudly.

These guys really don't understand harmony and friendship. They always look happy when they meet and chat, but when they discuss privately, they act completely differently.

Alas, women.

"But what's the script? I want to play the leading female role!" Kita Ikuyo was not very interested in the cultural festival of the aristocratic academy. Instead, she was very interested in the band's MV. She even raised her hand and volunteered to take on the role of the leading female role.

A youthful and sunny JK beauty like her should play the heroine.

As for the male protagonist, his gender doesn't have to be too rigid. It would be perfectly natural to let Senior Yamada wear boys' clothes.

Ito Rin and Yamada Ryo immediately looked at her with sympathy. Hongxia, with a smile on her face, moved to her side and said gently, "Xiao Xiduo, do you want to be the heroine? It's a good idea, but I think that in the filming of an MV, it's not only the protagonist who is important. Those service personnel are also positions that cannot be obtained. How about this, Xiao Xiduo will be responsible for carrying the equipment."

"By the way, since we want to shoot an excellent MV, we will definitely need a lot of equipment. I'm sorry to bother you, Xiao Xiduo."

Kita Ikuyo swallowed her saliva and looked at the enthusiastic Nijika-senpai in front of her. When her eyes swept over Yamada Ryo and the others, they had already distanced themselves tactfully: "...Nijika-senpai, I've thought about it, and the heroine may not be suitable for me."

"Is there any kind of insignificant supporting actress role? I'm good at that kind of role!"

Hongxia smiled contentedly, and Ito Rin couldn't help but applaud.

Look, this is wit.

The topic of MV shooting has come to a temporary end. The script has not been written, and the props and cameras are still being prepared. Everything remains at the PPT level. The current priority is the performance at the cultural festival.

Some people wanted to use old songs, while others wanted to use new songs. In the end, it all fell to Pochi-chan and Yamada Ryo to be responsible for the lyrics and music. Ito Rin, who had nothing to do, was flipping through the script, her mind already flying elsewhere.

After finishing my part-time job for today, I finally got the answer. It will be a new song. I will then ask Pochi-chan to write the lyrics and Yamada Ryo to compose the music.

"Pochi-chan." Yamada Ryo stopped Pochi-chan who was about to leave, and grabbed Ito Rin who was about to go home to do something bad, staring at the two of them with a sharp gaze: "There are some things I need to discuss with you, come with me."

When standing in front of the curry shop, Ito Rin's thoughts suddenly flew to an unknown place.

Could it be that this guy has no money to eat again, so he found an excuse to bring them out so that they can have a free meal?

September in Tokyo is already autumn, summer

The afterglow of the rain was still lingering in the city. On the streets at night, the temperature had not yet dropped. Standing in front of the door, feeling the hot wind, Ito Rin hesitated and stepped inside.

Unsuspectingly, Pochi-chan had already sat down with her. Ito Rin opened her mouth to warn her, but was noticed by Yamada Ryo's gaze.

Threat, naked threat!

It really is a monster that wants to eat and drink for free.

"Senior Yamada, are you calling us out?" With the determination to die, Ito Rin sat next to her.

Let’s not talk about other things for now, at least we can’t let her harm Pochi-chan, otherwise no one can get the money back unless the manager takes action.

"About the creative process." Yamada Ryo took a sip of orange juice and casually stirred his curry rice. "Actually, you're also responsible for the script, so I called you out to get your opinions."

“I feel like I can’t write anything anymore.”

"what?!"

"Well, that's not detailed enough. If you ask me to write a song for the band, I should be able to do it." She took a bite of her meal, hesitating on how to explain it to them.

This feeling inside is very strange. It is right on the tip of my tongue, but I just can't find the right words to say it.

Ito Rin pondered, "So, you mean, you can't write anything that resonates with me, right?"

"Yes, that's right. I always feel that what I write now is terrible, but you all have no objections, which makes me doubt myself a little." Yamada Ryo said with his eyes lighting up.

Volume 2: Today's meeting will be sent later

I have to go out to eat later, and I can come back to write after dinner

To be honest, the weather has been getting cold recently, and I really don’t want to go out to eat late at night, but my family insists on dragging me over, and I have to get myself ready first, which is really annoying.

The main thing is that every time we eat together, she likes to nag me about not having a partner, and even plans to arrange a blind date for me. Hmm...

Volume 2: Chapter 7 I Really Am Not a Sister Con

"This..." Pochi-chan bit the spoon and couldn't say anything.

She also had a similar feeling, that is, she felt uncomfortable no matter how she tried to write lyrics for youthful and sunny songs. But when she showed them to her family, everyone gave them good reviews.

There is also the account she operates. When she usually posts those cover videos, the number of views and the speed of increasing followers are very fast. However, when she tries to talk about something she wrote, the data is very ugly.

In order to gain more attention and fans, she hasn't released any original songs for a long time, but she has kept the habit of writing lyrics, which is now really useful.

"That's normal." Ito Rin took the chicken curry rice she ordered and said, "You've been changing the music a lot lately, haven't you?"

"Yeah." Yamada Ryo nodded.

When she's at home with nothing to do, she either plays the bass or writes music for Pochi-chan's songs.

Yamada Ryo really liked that song of hers. Even though he felt that the song couldn't be improved any further, he still kept trying to optimize it.

“For any thing, the difference between liking it and hating it lies in the degree to which it is done. Even if it is a career you love, once it turns from a hobby into a profession, you will eventually start to dislike it.”

"Like Yamada-senpai's current situation, she's been writing too many songs. The best solution is to give it up temporarily and find other hobbies to relieve the stress."

"But..." she hesitated.

She is also needed to compose the new song to be used in the next cultural festival.

Time is running out.

"That's easy." Ito Rin snapped her fingers and took out a notebook from the bag beside her. "Leave the script arrangement to you, and I'll be in charge of the music. It's a good opportunity for us to swap tasks and let each other relax."

Although he had never tried to play an instrument himself, he could rely on his master-level bass skills and the musical techniques in his head, so as long as he needed to use them, there would be no accidents.

Yamada Ryo propped up his cheek with one hand and looked at him mischievously: "Let me write a love triangle?"

"Ah!?" Pochi-chan, who was eavesdropping, or perhaps listening openly, exclaimed.

After being stared at by both of them, he immediately lowered his head, knocked his head on the table, and imitated Xiao Xiduo's apology.

"The love triangle was just a joke...as long as everyone gets a chance to appear in the MV, it'll be considered a success." Ito Rin said helplessly.

"I see." Yamada Ryo flipped through the notebook where he had written the outline he had come up with.

I turned a few pages further and found something even more interesting.
