For the peace of the Lonely Band, please sacrifice yourself!

Goto Ichiri held onto the trash can bitterly, about to cry.

How could this happen? My good handsome moment was ruined like this! ? QAQ......

"It's okay, it's okay. After all, Pochi-chan played very well. No wonder my stomach was so surprised."

Hong Xia ran to Yili in small steps, squatted down and gently stroked her back, and breathed a sigh of relief:

“I never expected that I would pass.”

"I never doubted it, so let's start practicing the next song in the next few days."

Yamada Ryo lifted up his blue hair and hummed confidently.

"Eh???"

Goto Ichiri turned his head blankly, blinking his cute big eyes, and saw Liang who was eager to try. A twisted chill surged in his stomach again.

"vomit----"

"Ahahaha, Ryo-senpai, I think we'd better take a break first, and then talk about the next song after Goto-san has recovered."

"Well, it's over, of course you can say whatever you want, but it's better for her to rest for a few days, otherwise she might be the first to collapse."

Mochizuki Shuo glanced at Xiao Yili and sighed with amusement.

"That's right, then..."

"Let's take a commemorative photo first! To commemorate the successful rehearsal!"

"What a great idea! Kita-chan is worthy of being the Minister of Foreign Affairs."

"Hey, thank you for the compliment~"

Seeing that everyone looked so excited, Wang Yueshuo could only come to dampen their growing enthusiasm.

"Although you have passed the rehearsal, you'd better not take it lightly. There are only two audience members in front of you this time, but on the day of the performance, there will be many unfamiliar audience members."

The young man reminded them one by one:

"When Hongxia played the drums, she used too much force on her shoulders, which increased the range of motion and limited the speed and flexibility of her arms. So when playing the drums, it is best to use the wrists and fingers flexibly."

"As for guitar, Kita is a novice, and Bochi is a typical 'bedroom guitarist'. It's normal for him to look down at the strings, but he can't keep his head down. It's better to face the audience and let them feel your enthusiasm."

"Bass...how about we give it a try...Okay, I was wrong. I shouldn't have made fun of Bass."

Before Mochizuki Saku could finish his words, he was met with the cold gaze of bassist Yamada Ryo, and he quickly shut up.

Hayase Hazuki, with her face resting on the side of her head, smiled and reached out to poke Ijichi Hoshika's face. With just a slight poke, the manager's soft and elastic cheek skin became concave, and then quickly returned to normal.

"She's obviously very happy in her heart, but her expression is still cold. Xingge-chan is really a tsundere." PA-san joked.

Yidizhi Xingge was not surprised and was too lazy to talk about her best friend. She supported her chin with both hands and spoke slowly:

"Pochi's skills are really outstanding, and his foundation is very solid."

"However, she obviously lacks ensemble experience and lacks confidence, so she was unable to display her full strength. Ha... She really is a guitar hero."

“After all, he is someone close to Shuo. To be able to stand beside such an excellent person, he must be no simple person.” PA-san said with emotion.

Talking about the full moon, she muttered softly:

"Luckily, we have an all-round guy like Shuo in the team, otherwise... the band would have become a band led by a guitarist."

"Now, I am indeed curious about this band." Hayase Hazuki picked up the mineral water in front of her and took a sip. "I am beginning to look forward to where they will go in the future. Huh, first the Tokyo Dome, then the Budokan, and finally the world stage?"

"You're thinking too far ahead."

Sister Xingge glanced at the whimsical PA-san speechlessly, the corners of her lips slightly curved, and she looked at the noisy and laughing band with a smile, her eyes moving, as if she had returned to her own band a few years ago.

At that time, she and her partner were also like this...

Chapter 51 I've Been Watching You

"Come to think of it, you actually wanted them to perform from the beginning, right?" Hayase Hazuki lay on the table and saw Xingge's cheeks suddenly turn red. A barely noticeable smirk appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Isn't there always a vacant spot in your performance schedule? Why do you deliberately set up barriers to bully them?"

"I'm not bullying them!"

Ichichi Hoshige's voice inexplicably became louder, and he turned his face away, suppressing his shyness and speaking coldly:

"If I am not satisfied, I will not let them perform, but..."

"But even though their performance is still very crude, it still has some moving aspects, right?"

"Heh, as a relative of mine, it's better for me to be strict and help the band grow."

Sister Xingge snorted at PA-san's interruption and continued:

"Besides, I've seen their efforts these days. Hongxia was so nervous that she went out early and came back late a few days ago, so it's normal that the rehearsal went smoothly."

"Eh...Isn't it possible that this behavior is called a sister complex?"

"If you say something weird like that again, I'll fire you."

"Okay, okay," Hayase Hazuki waved her hand with a smile and added jokingly:

"After all, a certain tsundere girl likes normal handsome boys."

"I think we can think about the next tuner."

Ichichi Hoshige's tone was as cold as ice.

"Eh - sorry, please don't fire me~"

Hayase Hazuki acted coquettishly and aggrievedly.

Ijichi Xingge sighed a little, feeling a bit overwhelmed, and put away his strange emotions. He raised his head and just in time saw Pochi walking around with a bucket in his hand. His complexion had recovered a little, and he blinked his ruby-clear eyes.

Unpolished jade and gold like this should have greater growth.

Well, the most urgent thing is to make her confident and let her know that someone recognizes her.

Thinking this in her mind, Ijichi Hoshika stood up and looked at Goto Ichiri more seriously and carefully.

But for Goto, this was a complete unexpected disaster.

The face that had finally returned to normal turned pale in an instant.

What’s going on? Why is the manager staring at me?

Eh? The look in his eyes is getting more scary. Wow! Are you staring at me again? Are you angry?

Is it because I was too complacent just now?

Goto Ichiri wailed in his heart. When he passed by the store manager, he didn't even dare to raise his head, or even look at her, trying his best to reduce his presence.

Unfortunately, this action was seen by Ichichi Hoshige, which made her want to teach him and she vowed to cure this socially anxious girl.

So, Sister Xingge lifted up her long, smooth golden hair, smiled what she thought was a very gentle and perfect smile, and said slowly and ‘kindly’:

"I am watching you carefully."

The dead tsundere tried his best to look at me tenderly.JPG

Ehhhhhhh? ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ? !

The clear water kept hitting the wall of the plastic bucket, splashing white water high up. Goto Ichiri was "overjoyed" and his hands couldn't stop shaking. His big watery eyes seemed to have lost their expression, with only distorted black lines.

"Alas! I've been completely targeted by the store manager!!!"

Goto Ichiri wanted to cry but had no tears. His frustrated hands could hardly hold the bucket.

.......

"Hehe, the rehearsal went smoothly, and we are finally on the right track to finish the band! Q(≧▽≦*)o" Ichichi Hongxia finally showed his captain's demeanor and waved his hand:

“Our band career is booming!”

"Great!!!"

"Then, the ticket price is 1500 yen each, and the quota is 25 tickets. Each person is responsible for 5 tickets. Is that ok?"

“Eh? Each person has a quota of 5 tickets? There are five quotas?! Ahhhhhh!!! I forgot everything about the quotas!”

Goto Ichiri's expression completely collapsed into a picture that couldn't even be considered a rough draft, and he cried out with tears in his eyes.

Dad, Mom, Erli.

Mom and Dad are two miles away. Mom and Dad are two miles away.

Why is it that there are only three people I know, can communicate with normally, and can trust with my tickets? No matter how I count them, they are all mine! ?

Goto Ichiri, with tears in his eyes, helplessly grasped Mochizuki Saku's sleeve, opened his mouth slightly with a pitiful look, cast a 'my life is over' look at the boy, and begged bitterly:

"Brother Shuo, can Jimmy Henry be counted as one vote?"

"Huh? There's no way a puppy would come to watch a live show, right?"

Mochizuki Saku was horrified, and quickly reached out to touch Goto Ichiri's forehead. He thought carefully and murmured:

"The temperature is normal. Could it be that your condition has worsened?"

"No!!! I'm afraid my band career is really coming to an end this time~"

After this battle, Pochi-chan sadly turned into black and white ash.

Lonely Rock, the end is grand! (Fog)

Goto Ichiri slowly and unsteadily climbed up from the ground. His dazed eyes stared at the nearby Mochizuki Saku, and his cherry-like mouth opened and closed slightly:

"Hey, Brother Shuo, after I die, please bury my guitar with me."

“Ah, it hurts~”

The corners of Mochizuki Saku's mouth twitched, and with a knife he knocked the confused Goto Ichiri back to his original form.

Looking at the 'Iron Fist of Forced Calmness', Pochi pouted and cried:

"No matter how I calculate, even if I sell tickets to everyone in my family, I still can't get the number of people to five! This is really too difficult!"

"Ah.... That's why you asked Jimmy Henry if he could be considered..."

"Hiss...Your situation seems to be really miserable."

"Right, right! I told you, if it was Brother Shuo, he would definitely understand how I feel!"

With tears in his eyes, Goto Ichiri grabbed Mochizuki Saku's trouser leg.

"ha?"

Feeling that he was being treated very rudely, Mochizuki Saku was speechless. He could only rub Ichiri's cheek and comfort him with empathy:

"For someone with social phobia, this standard is really difficult for you. Why don't you tell Hong Xia that I can give you a few of the tickets I sold."

"Eh? Really......"

Goto Ichiri rubbed his red eyes and looked at the boy in surprise.

"Well... forget it. This way I will be completely dependent on Shuo-ge, and I won't grow at all."

After thinking about it, Pochi finally gave up this shortcut.

Now it was Mochizuki Shuo's turn to be surprised. He patted the girl's head with relief:

"Yili, you have grown a lot in the past month. The time, energy, and hard work you have put in will not be in vain. I will keep watching you grow until the day you decide that you don't need me anymore. At that time, I will be able to rest assured."

"Shuo...Brother Shuo?"

Goto Ichiri's eyes slowly widened, and he raised his eyelids shyly. The boy's figure was so close to him, within reach, within reach.

She could feel her restless heart making an overclocked roar, and her body gradually became warm. Where she couldn't see, her fair cheeks seemed like a cloud dyed red by the setting sun, and then it quickly spread to her entire upper body.

"If you say that, I will have to rely on you forever."

The girl was shy, her eyes were as deep as spring water, and she said this in her heart.

Chapter 52: The End of the Band's Future?

After a simple gathering and barbecue, when Goto Ichiri and Mochizuki Saku were waving goodbye, Ijichi Kouka called them.

"Mochizuki-san! Pochi-chan!~"
