A world only known by the God of Lost Love

"I have to sigh, it's great to be young."

"Okay, okay, stop talking, that kid has already put the guitar on his back."

Seeing that Goto Ichiri was fully prepared, the guitarist quickly signaled his companions to concentrate.

"It's about to start!"

........................

【I don’t like you because you are handsome. 】

[But because I like you, I think you are handsome. 】

【It doesn’t matter even if you are regarded as a fool. 】

【Because you are the hero in my heart. 】

The simple and gentle guitar sound made the originally noisy Livehouse instantly quiet.

And the young singing voice that was slightly nervous but not out of tune touched everyone's hearts inexplicably.

Suzuki Ren herself is no exception.

Of course he knew how much Goto Kazuri felt about him, but he never expected that she would express it so openly and openly on this occasion——

【Ah...I really like you very much】

【Please become a hero that belongs only to me. 】

[I want to continue chatting with you on Line, and I also want to go home with you]

[I say "goodbye" to you who is going to work part-time after school, talking to myself like this]

【I also want to see you on my days off】

[I also want to talk on the phone with you until I fall asleep]

[But I don’t have that courage]

【It's so bad】

Although Goto Issato's eyes were still just looking at the guitar in her hand, her slightly trembling singing voice and her faultless playing made everyone feel how serious she was at this time.

Finally, the guitarist, who had been shocked and speechless from the beginning, came to his senses and immediately gave the other band members a look.

So, the moment the chorus entered, the bass and drums also joined in -

[I hope you can look back]

【I hope you can notice me】

[I sprayed perfume, but only I could smell it]

[As if I got you, as if I were your other half]

[Fantasy about the answer "definitely tomorrow" in bed]

【While thinking of you】

【While looking forward to meeting tomorrow】

........................

In this way, an audience interaction that started on a whim suddenly turned into a personal live belonging to Goto Kazuri after the band joined.

The expressions of the surrounding audience also changed from the relaxed feeling of watching a drama at the beginning to becoming more and more immersed and enjoyed.

And Goto Ichisato's own singing voice seemed to have been injected with power. Not only did it no longer tremble, it even became louder and clearer than before——

【I hope you can look back!Hope you notice me! 】

【Can you always stay with me? 】

【because I like you! 】

【You are so lovable in my heart. 】

【I also fantasize about being with you today】

[Fantasy about a love affair with you]

[There is a sweet and soft fragrance——]

........................

It wasn't until he sang these out loud that Goto Kazuri finally came back to his senses——

The content of the lyrics... is it so shameful?

Whether it's a confession repeated several times, or that extremely shameful confession at night.

Goto Kazuri felt that he had poured out almost all his feelings for Suzuki Ren along with the singing.

After the performance, the entire Livehouse began to boil!

Ichiri Goto, who was bathed in applause and cheers, subconsciously looked at Ren Suzuki in the audience.

That was far more sluggish than the reaction just now.

This boy who always supports him, after hearing her song just now, even forgot to applaud with the people around him.

An unimaginable sense of accomplishment and joy instantly flooded Goto Ichiri's heart.

A strong emotion she had never experienced before made her pick up the microphone again, and then, under the witness of everyone, she declared to Suzuki Ren:

"This song...can't be considered a confession for the time being, because I know that right now I am not mentally prepared to be with you at all. Next time, when I am truly aware and ready...I will definitely I will stand on the stage again and express my feelings in the same way! So until then, please stay with me!"

"…………"

This time, Ren Suzuki finally recovered from the shock of the scene and the throbbing in her heart.

Faced with the girl's sincere words and scorching gaze... Suzuki Ren pursed her lips, and then nodded slowly.

"Ah...until then, I will keep watching you."

At the same time, along with Suzuki Ren's promise came a long-awaited reminder from the navigation system——

[The progress of the strategy has been changed, the current progress of the strategy is: 90%]

【Please keep up the good work. 】

This temporary live that only belonged to Goto Kazuri came to an end.

Chapter 76: After the performance, there will naturally be a celebration party

After that, the atmosphere of the entire Livehouse was aroused by this performance.After Ichiri Goto left, the band immediately played several songs while the iron was hot, maintaining the warm and noisy atmosphere until the end of the performance.

Before they left, in order to thank Kazuri Goto for his "guest appearance" tonight, they decided to invite Ren Suzuki and Kazuri Goto to their celebration banquet tonight——

"Yeah~ I really saw something pretty good today."

After drinking a glass of beer, the guitarist who was the initiator of this temporary live showed a rather cheerful expression.

"Not only did we have a great live, but we also got a couple to be together~ Haha! This should be the most lively performance since our band was founded, right?"

"Absolutely. After all, the effect of this show is so explosive, even if it is deliberately arranged, it may be difficult to reach our level."

The drummer also enjoyed tonight's performance.

"Speaking of which, luckily we have rehearsed this piece of Goto's song, otherwise we might be the ones who would make a fool of ourselves."

"...This kid's skills are much better than we expected."

Recalling the performance just now, the bassist couldn't help but sigh:

"Both the accuracy and the sense of rhythm are impeccable... It's hard to imagine that a freshman in high school can reach this level."

"Eh? Is it possible that after today's celebration party, Goto-chan will replace me as the lead guitar of the band?"

"I think it's okay. Compared to a grown man who jumps up and down all day, everyone will definitely like JK more, right?"

"Seconded."

"You bunch of inhumane things!"

The members of the band began to push each other and fight with each other under the influence of alcohol.

On the other side, Goto Kazuri thought that they were really going to change the members for his own reasons, and suddenly looked at Ren Suzuki next to him with a bewildered expression——

"Don't worry, they were just joking."

As Ren Suzuki spoke, he looked at the beer cups in the hands of the band members with slightly complicated eyes.

Although he himself can't say that he likes drinking much, drinking juice in a place like an izakaya is still too unconventional.

"As a guitarist, you should also understand how much time and effort it takes to get used to and adapt to a band. They will not replace this person who is the core of the entire stage just because of the so-called JK name."

"Oh? Brother Suzuki, don't you understand this very well?"

After hearing the conversation between the two, the guitarist put his arm around Ren Suzuki's shoulders and laughed.

"For a band, it is quite troublesome to change members. Not to mention that the person who needs to be replaced is me, who has to be the MC, lead singer and lead guitar."

"Wow……"

After hearing the guitarist's self-introduction, Goto Kazuri suddenly exclaimed in great surprise:

"It's amazing that I can take on so many responsibilities at the same time! I just play the guitar and I have no time to care about anything..."

"This is related to the style of the band. Judging from the way Goto played just now, in addition to the lead guitar, you should also take on a little rhythm guitar work in some chorus stages. If this is the case, you want to It is naturally very difficult to juggle more responsibilities. But it is different with our band..."

After that, the guitarist began to share how his band developed its own style step by step.

And Kazuri Goto also recorded what the other party said very seriously, and thought about whether it could be used to end the band——

"...I said, little brother."

At this moment, the bassist on the other side also approached Ren Suzuki, who had been listening to the conversation between the two from the beginning.

"I think Goto-chan is a pretty good girl. Do you really not think about it and become a lover with her now?"

"..."

It seems that the bassist was moved by Ichiri Goto's singing just now, so he wanted to encourage Ichiri Goto's love affair.

This is not difficult to understand.

After all, after Ichiri Goto's performance ended, cheers such as "Together!" or "Promise her" were heard throughout the Livehouse.

On the one hand, it's because Ichiri Goto's performance is indeed excellent, and on the other hand, it's naturally because of the sincere emotion she puts into her singing, which is clearly visible at a glance.

"...Goto also said on stage that she is not mentally ready yet. Therefore, I don't think now is the best time to confirm a relationship with her."

Ren Suzuki shook her head and replied:

"The only thing I can guarantee is...that I will be by her side and respond at any time until she is mentally prepared and formally expresses her feelings to me."

"Oh, I always feel that this has nothing to do with being in a relationship, but for high school students, this green feeling is quite good!"

Seeing Ren Suzuki's attitude was so upright, the bassist immediately beamed.

"But having said that, I couldn't find the 'ending band' that Goto-chan mentioned on the Internet. Could it be your high school's club band?"

"Although it is indeed a band formed by high school students, the ending band is not a club, but a complete band in the true sense. It just hasn't started formal activities yet."

Suzuki Ren shook his head and then introduced:

"Currently, they have completed an original song and passed an interview with a Livehouse. Starting next week, Livehouse will arrange performances for them."

"Oh really?"

The bass player immediately showed a rather expectant expression after hearing this.

"In that case... come, here is my contact information. When they start their first official performance, please be sure to notify me! I will definitely go to support them!"

After hearing this, Suzuki Ren suddenly showed a dumbfounded expression:

"But... the location of our performance is Shimokitazawa, which is still far away from Kyoto -"

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I care more about this band than the travel expenses!"

The bassist said nonchalantly:

"With such a promising and talented guitarist, I am personally very optimistic about the future of this band. And even without them, we will go to Tokyo together for a while."

"? Are you going to participate in some activity?"
