The girl's golden eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Chapter 149 150. Autocratic, but...
"Speaking of which, do you want to come along?" Saki suggested, half in a playful way, half seriously, while gently stroking the girl's head.
She had contacted Wakaba Mutsu and Nagasaki Suyo on Line, and their replies made her a little concerned.
"Eh? Is it okay?" Xian Juanxin tilted her head, and as she thought about it, a bright smile appeared on her face.
Because it's fun just to listen to it, and it's a wonderful activity that uses music to bring smiles to everyone's faces. There's no reason to refuse it, right?
"...?" Hachiman Kailing almost couldn't hold it in.
This practice of temporarily adding people with connections...isn't it said that it is too close to real life?
After finally getting to the Budokan (which wasn't easy), the team's vocalist suddenly said they wanted to add a new member at the end of the challenge, so we could all play together...
The peach was picked by the string, isn't this too realistic?
But after thinking it over carefully, Hachiman Kailing said nothing: [Forget it, isn't it good enough? ]
After all, it's just a band for fun, so we can just play around. Besides, Konoe Saki paid him, and the numbers are pretty good.
All I can say is that it may take several years for an average person to encounter such a rich and inhumane boss.
But after thinking about it again, Hachiman Hailing realized that she was wrong. How could she not speak? No, that would be disloyal!
"A dual-vocalist setup? I see. I completely understand. A dual-vocalist setup does allow for greater scope for creativity."
If both parties are good at different sound ranges, then the effect of one plus one is greater than two or even greater than three, so we must support it!
What did the other teammates think? Hachiman Kailing naturally didn't care. Such a good opportunity to show off was right in front of her, only a fool would not take it, right?
Even if Konoe Saki and Harumaki's vocal ranges were exactly the same, she could still come up with a reason to be sure. Don't ask, the answer is "We are the right six people."
What? Bands from the era of big girl bands were usually five-member teams? Are ancestral rules immutable?
Sorry, she, Hachiman Kairin, has always been a reformist: a four-person band or a three-person band is fine, and if it is a two-person band, she will support it wholeheartedly; so, a six-person band is very normal!
At this time, even if Saki said that she wanted to bring all the members of HelloHappy to form a temporary ten-member band, Hachiman Kailing would fully support her.
Of course, if a certain Miss Genmaki could put a little distance between herself and Saki, Hachiman Kairin would only support her even more.
Because Genmaki Shin had already sat on Saki's lap, with her head resting directly on Saki's chest, sharing the joy of family (bushi).
What made Hachiman Kailing feel even more uncomfortable was that the joyful Xianjuanxin suddenly asked her: "Where is your smile?"
"...Sorry, I'm probably not the type to express my emotions. But I'm very happy to receive Saki's invitation." The latter sentence is sincere, the former is...
No, now that it's like this, do you really want her to laugh? How can she laugh?
"Adding a new person? I see. Then, let's announce the news at the last live show of the band challenge."
At the "war meeting", Shoko Toyokawa was actually a little overwhelmed. Although adding a new person would allow her to free herself to write the script, wasn't it too much of a headache that this young lady Genmaki asked "Where's your smile?" right from the start?
She seriously doubted: "Even if I arranged the script, Miss Xianjuan wouldn't follow it, right?"
After all, Xian Juanxin’s main theme is a relaxed and happy life, and what she emphasizes is freedom. She will never listen to other people’s advice.
But who made Genmaki Shin a relative of Konoe Saki?
Maya Yamato, Rikka Asahi, and even Kairin Yawata, who formed an offensive and defensive alliance with her, all agreed. What objection could she have?
The only thing she wanted to ask was: Hachiman-san, why did you agree so quietly? Do you still remember our agreement?
Didn't they form a band together based on that?
Besides, isn't Budokan the dream stage for most musicians? Why was it agreed to so easily? Where's the bottom line?
Shoko Toyokawa couldn't understand it, she was just shocked.
But it turned out that she was shocked a little too early. Her script was based on a deep dark fantasy, which was completely opposite to the concept of the chord reel, so it was a tragedy.
Xian Juanxin had a smile on her face, but her tone was relatively serious. She wanted an ending where everyone could be happy, even if it was just an ordinary stage play.
In desperation, she had to give the screenwriter job to Xian Juanxin.
In her opinion, instead of revising the script over and over again, it would be better to let this young lady take over the task and just play a childish game of house. After all, their lead singer and absolute core is Konoe Saki.
With relatives as the absolute core, a certain Miss Xianjuan can do whatever she wants.
Because Toyokawa Shoko smiled with relief at that time (she just gave up), Genmaki thought about it and decisively took over the task. She also called on everyone to brainstorm. She wanted to create a stage play that combined everyone's wishes and could make the audience smile.
Shoko Toyokawa found an excuse to run away secretly. She sat on a bench by the roadside and breathed the air of "freedom".
Saki naturally wouldn't just leave it alone, she decisively chased after him: "Xiao Xiangzi, I'm sorry, my willfulness must be giving you a headache. That child has been like this since he was young..."
"I shouldn't have let Xin come over without saying hello." What he really needed to apologize for was inviting Xin Genmaki without discussing it with everyone, but Saki said nothing about it.
Because she felt that what Toyokawa Shoko did yesterday was problematic, just like when this person quit crychic: he only cared about himself and didn't consider other people's feelings.
Quitting the team can be said to be an impulsive behavior caused by various unexpected circumstances, but what happened yesterday shouldn’t count, right?
The most important thing is that Saki contacted Wakaba Mutsu on Line, and Wakaba Mutsu said that Toyokawa Shoko had not contacted her, let alone discussed the follow-up of yesterday's incident.
This is quite problematic. Isn't it obvious that Ruoye Mu is in a bad mood? Why doesn't this Qingmei communicate more with Ruoye Mu?
So, Saki did this on purpose. She wanted Toyokawa Shoko to experience for herself what it was like to get along with a dictatorial person.
When she found out that Saki cared about her so much, Toyokawa Shoko didn't think about anything, but instead showed a happy smile, which looked soft, sweet and delicious.
"Xiaosaki must have her own thoughts, I can understand that, and I'm not unhappy, it's just... no, it's nothing."
In Toyokawa Shoko's opinion, since Konoe Saki has chased her out, it means that he has her in his heart, and then all problems will no longer be a problem.
The hope of forming a band has increased, which is a good thing. In this case, she must maintain Konoe Saki's good impression of her.
"?"
Chapter 150 151. Irrelevant
Saki was a little confused.
At work, Shoko Toyokawa occasionally shows an inexplicably tough side, sometimes even to the point of wanting to modify i83's "ancestral laws".
For example, when some idol trainees practiced hard but failed to achieve results, Saki tended to take a break, rest for a day or two and then work hard again; while Toyokawa Shoko preferred that they continue to
Continue to practice hard until your body is tired enough to memorize every pronunciation and every dance step.
It might not sound nice, but this is a necessary sacrifice to become an idol and shine on stage. That's how the industry works: there are so many people chasing their dreams, each with their own reasons and motivations that are compelling enough, but only after they step onto the stage and shine do people begin to pay attention to the hard work behind the scenes. Before that, everything is meaningless.
Toyokawa Shoko agreed with this.
Saki had spoken to Toyokawa Shoko, and the situation hadn't gotten any worse. But that was just the beginning; Toyokawa Shoko's rhetoric remained largely unchanged, adding, "This is the norm in the industry."
However, not many people would chat with her. People would rather chat with acquaintances or producers, and would only ask them for help when they encountered difficulties.
There was a kind-hearted child who felt that Toyokawa Shoko always seemed to be alone, so he wanted to help her integrate into the agency. Unexpectedly, he was lectured by her with cold reality, which was quite embarrassing.
What's even more embarrassing is that Toyokawa Shoko didn't know this. She just said to Saki: "I think it's a bad idea to encourage people with the saying that as long as you work hard, you will be rewarded. There are many helpless things in reality."
Saki thought that Toyokawa Shoko was going to become a stranger to her, but this sentence appeared in the script of the stage play, which made people feel very subtle.
Saki thinks Toyokawa Shoko might have intended to be a sharp critic (educator?) and deliver her opinions forcefully, but unfortunately, this play received the worst response...
What's interesting is that some people on the Internet support Shoko Toyokawa's remarks, believing that her ideas perfectly fit the theme of this masked band - dark and profound, and have become her loyal fans.
Even Saki, the band's founder, didn't know that this was the theme of her band...
Then there is what happened between Toyokawa Shoko and Nagasaki Suyo.
This soft little octopus, presumably, labeled Nagasaki Motoyo's behavior malicious stalking and completely severed ties with her. Specifically, Nagasaki Motoyo's apology message fell on deaf ears...
Well, this is exactly the same as the previous attitude. I can only say that Ms. Nagasaki is suspected to have been blocked by the soft little octopus a long time ago.
Or, Toyokawa Shoko did not block Nagasaki Suyo, but was dismissive of the message sent by the girl and did not even look at it.
"...I feel like this is almost like blocking them," Saki thought to herself. "But this is a bit strange. Before and after the band disbanded, Nagasaki Motoyo was doing everything to save the band. Why would Xiao Xiangzi be so disgusted with her?"
The stalking incident happened just yesterday. Before that, apart from violating the Sakura people's default life philosophy of "don't cause trouble to others", Nagasaki Suyo had done nothing wrong.
So, it was because Nagasaki Motoyo's behavior objectively violated this point and she became a person who couldn't read the air, so Toyokawa Shoko hated her so much?
Sakihara thought that was a possibility, but now, she no longer thinks so.
Because she did it, and on a stage that was important enough to get her into a Budokan. This is obviously more extreme than what Nagasaki Suyo did, right?
She added a new person without informing anyone and wanted to bring a new person to the martial arts hall.
This achievement was achieved through everyone's hard work. Her actions were arbitrary. To put it more exaggeratedly, she betrayed everyone's expectations and trust.
Sakihara thought Toyokawa Shoko would use this opportunity to complain, and then she could take the opportunity to point out Toyokawa Shoko's problems and let the girl reflect on them together. Unexpectedly, this person didn't react at all...
Saki is a little confused about Toyokawa Shoko: [It can't be because she likes me, right? I have helped Shoko a lot, but I haven't seen her be so obedient at work.]
Saki had no choice but to ask directly again: "What do you think of what Xiangzi did to Sushi? You were really angry yesterday, not like your usual self."
Saki had asked about it on Line, and Toyokawa Shoko's response was "read but not reply." Later, even when Saki contacted her about Xiao Mu, Toyokawa Shoko didn't reply. But at least this time, her response was "unread but not reply," which was much better than "read but not reply."
"Well..." Toyokawa Shoko didn't want to answer this question at all, but because the other party was Saki, she thought for a long time, and finally answered reluctantly, "Nagasaki-san's behavior is too much. She has completely crossed the social line. I think this is all her fault!"
On the one hand, because of this, Shoko Toyokawa hated Nagasaki Motoyo's "unscrupulous" approach. On the other hand, it was the "catch" of his alcoholic father that made Shoko Toyokawa's pressure level completely explode.
At that time, she could no longer remain calm, so she focused on attacking Nagasaki Suyo, but how could she possibly say out such an embarrassing reason?
She was very concerned about what others thought of her, especially since the person asking this question was Saki, who was the best to her. She didn't want to cause any more trouble for Saki.
Saki keenly noticed that Toyokawa Shoko's emotions were real, but there were incompleteness.
That is to say, there are other reasons that make her angry, but she doesn't want to talk about it at all.
There was a feeling of being mistrusted, but there was nothing Saki could do. After all, Toyokawa Shoko had always been so confident and self-centered.
He thinks he can handle everything, so he will never tell the whole truth until the pressure is completely overwhelmed. He has a very stubborn personality.
"If Xiao Sushi truly repents, will Xiao Xiangzi forgive her? Without considering the factors of Xiao Mu and me, you know that Xiao Mu and I are willing to give her a chance."
Saki wanted to hear Toyokawa Shoko's true thoughts, so she said this. She hoped that the girl would not carry any thoughts or burdens related to her and Xiaomu.
"Then it has nothing to do with me. The victim is Kazumu Kosaki. If Nagasaki-san shows the sincerity to make you make such a decision... with Kazumu Kosaki's kindness, she will definitely agree."
Shoko Toyokawa's attitude is: It doesn't matter.
"I'm unhappy with her inappropriate behavior and the possibility that she might involve Kosaki and Mitsuki in the band's past. I..."
"I had already planned to talk to her about the band's problems."
Toyokawa Shoko felt that Nagasaki's actions would seriously affect her plan, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Xiaosaki, I've made up my mind. I will explain everything to Nagasaki next. Can you be a witness?"
At this moment, the girl was full of determination.
ps: Thanks to graygoo for the two monthly tickets, and thanks to no.86 Illya for the monthly ticket. Thank you for your support.
Chapter 151 152. Toyokawa Shoko: I will end it myself
This is clearly an "invitation to death".
Judging from Toyokawa Shoko's attitude, Nagasaki Soyo's plan to revive the band is definitely doomed.
However, after the band disbanded and all four of them wanted to move on, Nagasaki Motoyo's plan never had a chance to come to fruition.
The only problem is that if Toyokawa Shoko's wording was a little more radical, Nagasaki Suyo would probably suffer a huge psychological trauma.
He might blame the band's failure to revive on that incident, and he might even develop a strong sense of self-loathing, which would be disastrous if he did something stupid.
"Then Xiao Xiangzi, please try to be gentle and take care of Xiao Sushi's emotions. Her desire to revive Crychic is real.
Yes, she really loves that band.”
"I think her emotions are the same as what Xiao Xiangzi told me before." At this point, Saki could only try his best to persuade Toyokawa Xiangzi to let this little blue octopus give Crychic an easier ending.
All four of them want to move forward, but this band definitely can't be revived, so let's not struggle anymore.
"Is that so..." If someone else said this, Toyokawa Shoko would just sneer, or even retort, "Nagasaki-san's mind is full of herself." But the person who said this was Saki, the lead singer of the band she had booked, so Toyokawa Shoko decided to be a little gentler.
As for why Toyokawa Shoko used such extreme thinking to guess Nagasaki Soyo's thoughts, we can only say: on the one hand, it was because her self-esteem was too strong and reached the point of inferiority; on the other hand, it was the so-called fault of "reading the air".
Shoko Toyokawa didn't know much about Nagasaki Suyo. She only knew that she was the eldest daughter of Tsuki no Mori, and that she could buy a double bass and a bass without any hesitation, so she must be rich.
She fell from the cloud of being Miss Toyokawa to the position of a worker Xiaoxiang (although it was her own choice). When she saw Nagasaki Soyo, she would think of her former self who was weak and full of unrealistic fantasies about life, and she felt very troubled.
I inexplicably felt my scalp tingling as if I was looking through my personal dark history.
Then, because Nagasaki Suyo wanted to contact her no matter what, she had already withdrawn. Even if she was reluctant, she shouldn't keep messaging her, right?
It is normal for band members to change. When someone is missing, they will find new people to replace them and insist on maintaining the band.
