"It's a good song. Should we let Pochi write the lyrics?" Although I heard Yamada Ryo say that he had inspiration before, I didn't expect the progress to be so fast.

"Ah."

The music in the headphones stopped playing, and was replaced by two familiar faces outside the glass of the coffee restaurant. Of course, although Nakamura Mine felt that the other party was familiar, it was not the case for them.

Both of them look like Yamada Ryo, both are high school girls, one has short hair and looks a bit expressionless, and the other has a ponytail and looks unhappy. There is no doubt that the two are members of Yamada Ryo's former band, guitarist Yasaka Haruha and drummer Hoshikuma Utabuki.

"What? You called us here specially, and I thought something was going on, but it turns out you were just showing off that you found a handsome boyfriend?" Yasaka Haruha spoke first, and the smell of gunpowder kept coming out as soon as she opened her mouth.

"You start by praising someone for being handsome. Are you trying to seduce me?" Nakamura Mine waited for a few seconds and saw that Yamada Ryo didn't seem to have any intention of retorting. He probably knew the purpose of this guy calling him over. Obviously, he just wanted to use him as a firecracker. Very good, very Yamada Ryo's style. However, for the sake of the coffee, pasta and snacks in front of him, he could still help.

"Ah? Huh!? What nonsense are you talking about, man!?" Yasaka Haruha had thought about how Yamada Ryo would respond to her, but she never mentioned that the pretty boy next to him, whom she didn't even know, would actually say such things, and not even look at herself in the mirror...Okay, she has to admit that this guy looks okay, but that can't be an excuse for being thick-skinned, right?

"Hello, my name is Nakamura Mine, and I'm a freshman in Sakuragaoka." Completely ignoring the other person's words, Nakamura Mine began to introduce himself seriously.

"Um, my name is Yasaka Haruha... No! Are you listening to me?" For a moment, Yasaka Haruha felt that she was almost led astray by Nakamura Mine, but fortunately she reacted quickly and glared back. Yamada Ryo, who had achieved his goal, turned his face away and tried hard to hold back his laughter.

"I'm listening. What about this cute-looking lady over here?" Without continuing to tangle with Yasaka Haruha, Nakamura Mine turned to look at Hoshikuma Utabuki. Although he knew the other person's name, they had never met her in real life after all, so he still had to ask.

"Hoshiguma Utabuki, second year of high school, you can call me Utabuki-san." Perhaps because Nakamura Mine said that she was cuter than Yasaka Haruha, Hoshiguma Utabuki, who originally had a expressionless face, seemed to be in a better mood.

"Okay, Utabuki sister, hiss!" Although Nakamura Mine usually calls people who are one grade older than him, such as Hongxia or Yamada Ryo, by their names, he is not too concerned about the address. Since the other party is so nice, it is no big deal to meet such a small request. However, the piercing pain in his thigh shows that Yamada Ryo, who is squinting at the window beside him, seems very dissatisfied with this.

It's hard to say whether she was unhappy with Nakamura Mine saying that Hoshikuma Utabuki was cute or with calling her Utabuki "sister", as we all know.

"Come to think of it, I have no idea why I was called here, Ryo." Nakamura Mine forcibly pushed Yamada Ryo's claws away and asked while rubbing his thigh, trying not to change his expression.

(That’s a really heavy hand…)

"For the band's indicators." As he said this, Yamada Ryo secretly handed two tickets to Nakamura Mine under the table.

(Haha, you are embarrassed so you ask me for help, right? And the quota? Haven’t you already completed the quota?)

"Oh, I see." Nakamura Mine didn't expose it, but just took the ticket silently, with an expression of realization on his face.

"In that case, both of you, the ticket price is 1500 yen each, so for two people it's 3000 yen." Nakamura Mine took out the tickets and looked at the two people in front of him with anticipation.

"..."

After hearing the conversation between Nakamura Mine and Yamada Ryo and seeing the two tickets, Yasaka Haruha and Hoshikuma Utabuki both fell into a brief silence.

"How boring." Yasaka Haruha stood up, picked up her backpack and was about to leave, but was grabbed by the wrist by Hoshiguma Utabuki beside her.

"Chun Ye, do you want to escape?"

"Escape? Me? Why should I escape? I just don't want to continue wasting time on boring things."

Chapter 174 I will go

"How rude! How can watching our band's performance be boring? Right, Ryo."

"Yeah, it will be fun." Yamada Ryo said affirmatively.

"Hmph!" Perhaps because Hoshikuma Utabuki had no intention of letting go, Yasaka Haruha sat down again with a depressed look on her face, but then her expression became playful again.

"It must be very hard for you and her to form a band, right? The performance will just become a personal show for this guy." Yasaka Haruha didn't know whether she was mocking or self-deprecating, but what was certain was that she was definitely not in a good mood right now.

"What nonsense! If there is someone who will steal all the limelight, then that person must be me, the keyboard player." Nakamura Mine's face was full of confidence.

"A band can do without a keyboard player, but it can't do without a bassist." Yamada Ryo glanced at the arrogant guy next to him and said lightly, but his words were completely competitive.

“But a keyboard player can be a band by himself, but a bassist can only perform pantomime.” Nakamura Mine responded bluntly. He would not give in easily when it comes to his dignity as a keyboard player.

The two men looked at each other, and murderous intent filled the air like lightning.

"Tsk!" Seeing how the two of them were getting along, Yasaka Haruha felt increasingly impatient for some reason. She regarded Yamada Ryo's behavior of calling her out and giving her tickets to his new band's performance as a provocation.

"We'll take the tickets." Hoshiguma Utabuki took the tickets, but his eyes never left Nakamura Mine and Yamada Ryo.

"Utabuki!" Yasaka Haruha shouted in dissatisfaction.

"Anyway, even if you don't accept it, Haruye will go there secretly by yourself when the time comes." Hoshiguma Utabuki said with certainty.

"What!? How could I possibly go! You are not allowed to go either!" Yasaka Haruha said angrily.

Although it was obvious in the simulation, Nakamura Mine still had to sigh that the relationship between the two was really good. Although Yasaka Haruha always looked like a cat with its fur standing on end, she was obviously very accommodating when treating Hoshiguma Utabuki.

"What's the name of your band?" asked Hoshiguma Utabuki.

"End the band." This time it was Yamada Ryo himself who answered.

"..."

"Seriously?"

"Well, Nijixia took a lot of effort to come up with the name." Yamada Ryo answered seriously.

"Also... I really didn't realize she would come up with such a ridiculous name, but if that's the case, you guys are in a band with Hong Xia."

"Well, Hong Xia is the captain, and there are two guitarists."

"Really? That's really exciting."

"Ah."

In the end, despite Yasaka Haruha's reluctant expression, Hoshikuma Utabuki still took the ticket. Although nothing could be seen on the surface, as they walked side by side with Yamada Ryo on the starry road ahead, Nakamura Mine could still feel Yamada Ryo's feeling of relief.

"Ahem, come to the point, what exactly is your relationship with those two people?" Although he knew that Yamada Ryo had already determined in his heart that he knew what happened in the simulation, Nakamura Mine felt that he still had to struggle on the surface.

"..."

"Seeing you two seem to be chatting happily, I thought you knew." Yamada Ryo gave Nakamura Minoru a cold look. Today she was basically certain that Nakamura Minoru must know about her dream. Now she wanted to see how long this guy Nakamura Minoru could play dumb.

"Huh? How can you tell that we were having a good chat? And this is the first time we met, how would I know."

"Really? It's the first time we meet, so you call me that in a very friendly way, right?" Yamada Ryo's tone was somewhat strange.

"Isn't that what the other side asked for?" Nakamura Mine knew that Yamada Ryo was talking about him calling her "Utabuki Sister", but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"Then do you want to call me Sister Liang too?" Yamada Liang stood there with his face raised, trying to make a look of contempt, but due to the height difference between them, this effect was not achieved.

"No, that's weird." Nakamura Mine refused without thinking, and his decisive tone made Yamada Ryo gradually narrow his eyes.

"Eh?! Hey! What are you doing suddenly?" Yamada Ryo kicked Nakamura Mine in the calf unexpectedly, but it seemed that he was not satisfied yet and wanted to kick him again, but this time Nakamura Mine dodged it because he was prepared.

"......" Yamada Ryo didn't say anything, but just stared at Nakamura Mine, which made him feel a little uneasy.

"Ah, I said you are not... jealous, hiss~! You guy!" Nakamura Mine should have felt that he had found the reason, but Yamada Ryo kicked him again and completely dispelled Nakamura Mine's guess.

(Why, why did this guy become violent again...)

After rubbing his calf, which was not that painful, Nakamura Mine quickly caught up with Yamada Ryo who had already walked some distance away. However, what he did not notice was that Yamada Ryo took several deep breaths to fade away the blush that appeared on his cheeks under the reflection of the street light.

In front of Shimokitazawa Station, four beautiful young girls, each with their own unique characteristics, gathered together, and passers-by, both male and female, couldn't help but take a look at them.

"Wei, did you oversleep again? No, it's unlikely at this time anyway..." Tianzhong Ritsu complained to Hirasawa Wei who was ten minutes late, but then he thought that it was already six o'clock in the afternoon, so it shouldn't be possible, so he denied it himself.

"Sorry, sorry, it was so comfortable lying on the floor that I didn't realize..."

"You really overslept!"

"Hey, hey, but Xiaofeng hasn't come yet, has he?" Pingze Wei looked around and said with a bit of pride, with an expression on his face that said, "Look, I'm not the last one, am I?"

"As a performer, Feng must be in the preparation room now." Akiyama Mio said helplessly.

"Huh? Is that so? Hehe~" Hirasawa Yui tried to get away with it.

"Xiao Wei, your hair is a little messy." Kotobuki Tsumugi came to Hirasawa Wei and started to help her tidy up her hair which was a little messy because she rushed here.

"Thank you, Tsumugi." Hirasawa Yui thanked happily.

"Tsumugi, don't spoil her too much. If you go on like this, what will you do if she can't do anything without you?" Tianzhong Ritsu said seriously.

"No way!" It was rare for Hirasawa Wei to speak with confidence. Just when a few people thought she still had some backbone, Hirasawa Wei's next words made them all silent.

"I also have You, Xiaofeng and Hehe."

"..."

(I never thought of relying on myself...) ×3

Chapter 175 Chat

"By the way, what kind of place is a 'live house'?" Hirasawa Yui was very curious about this unfamiliar term.

"Well... to put it simply, it's a music bar, but it has top-notch musical instruments and sound equipment, making it very suitable for enjoying various live music performances up close." Akiyama Mio explained patiently.

"Eh~ Even though I don't quite understand some of it, it's a great place to listen to music, right?" After thinking hard, Hirasawa Yui gave her answer.

"Um, well, just understand it this way." Akiyama Mio lowered her head slightly. She felt that her explanation seemed to have no effect at all.

"Everyone, there's a suspicious-looking person over there." Hirasawa Yui used his hands as binoculars to look at a man wearing a hood and wrapped tightly in a hood at the door of Fanxing.

"Isn't she hot?"

Everyone followed and looked over.

"It's indeed very suspicious..." After all, the weather now is already quite warm, and the other person's dress is not normal no matter how you think about it.

"Could he be a bad guy?" Akiyama Mio said worriedly, her tone becoming a little timid.

"That shouldn't be the case. Look, this is a live house. Maybe it's a celebrity who needs to hide his identity." Tianzhong Ritsu comforted him.

"There's another person over there dressed similarly." Kotobuki Tsumugi suddenly said, and as a result, the few of them actually saw a girl wearing a baseball cap and a mask, and also wrapped herself tightly, walking into Fanxing.

"Well...it turns out that I still need to tell Xiaofeng first." Hirasawa Wei took out his cell phone with a serious expression.

On the other side, Nakamura Mine received the email and opened it.

Hirasawa Yui [Xiaofeng, two suspicious people in disguise have sneaked in! ]

"Disguise? Suspicious person?" Nakamura Mine was confused at first, then he seemed to have thought of something and showed an expression of realization.

He opened the door of the lounge and looked outside. To be honest, there were quite a few people wearing masks and hats, and those who wrapped themselves so tightly could be seen at a glance.

(As expected, it’s Yuuko and Yasaka Haruha. Really, the two of them plus the store manager can have a tsundere meeting.)

"What's the situation?" Goto Ichiri ran to Nakamura Mine and asked, pulling the corner of his clothes.

"Well, there are still quite a few people here." Nakamura Mine just estimated that there are about 20 to 30 people here now. Although it is indeed quite small compared to other famous bands, this is the band's first performance after all, so this result is already quite good.

"Really? That's great." Hearing what Nakamura Mine said, Ijichi Koka seemed to be relieved.

If we were to say who is the most nervous here, it would probably be Goto Ichiri, but if we were to say who is under the most pressure, it would definitely be Ijichi Kouka.

She had heard of and even seen many bands that disbanded because no one was interested in their initial performances.

It was she who invited everyone to form the band, and everyone has been working hard for it, so whether for her own dream or as the captain, she does not want this performance to fail.

Ijichi Hongxia also walked to the door and opened the space a little, and the people around gathered around and looked outside.

"Really? A lot of people came." Goto Ichiri said happily. She also saw Hiroi Kikuri and her two sisters who bought tickets for her, and she felt even more proud.

"It seems that they were brought here by Feng before." Yamada Ryo saw Tianzhong Ritsu and Akiyama Mio with sharp eyes.

"It's true. Afeng, you did invite them. There are also two very cute girls." Ijichi Hongxia also quickly discovered the members of the light music club.

"Ah, those two are also in our club. The one with long golden hair and fair skin is Kotobuki Tsumugi. She's a keyboard player like me. I heard she has won many awards for piano. She's quite amazing." Nakamura Mine helped introduce.

"Where's the other one?"

"Hirasawa Yui, the guitarist, has only started playing the guitar for a few days, but she is a natural genius with absolute pitch, although she has some problems." Nakamura Mine felt distressed when he mentioned Hirasawa Yui.

"Huh? Born with absolute pitch? Isn't that pretty amazing?" Ijichi Hongxia exclaimed.

"Absolute pitch? I think I've heard of it before, but what does it mean exactly?" Kita Ikuyo, who didn't know much about it, asked.

"To put it simply, it means the ability to instantly distinguish sounds that ordinary people cannot. Although it can be trained, it is rare to be born with this ability." Goto Ichiri explained, feeling a little emotional and envious in his heart.

(Awesome, this kind of person should be the protagonist in the story, right?)

"He's a pianist who has won many awards and a guitarist with absolute pitch. Afeng, isn't the lineup of your club a little too luxurious?" Ichichi Hongxia complained.

"Really? Pretty ordinary, right?" Nakamura Mine didn't know whether it was ordinary or not, after all, he had never seen any other light music clubs.

"Totally unusual, okay... But, speaking of which, Feng... don't you have any same-sex friends?" Ijichi Hongxia suddenly turned around and looked at Nakamura Feng with a teasing look on her face.

"Uh...how is that possible? I have a good relationship with Xiaoyin." Nakamura Mine was really stumped for a moment. After all, when he thought about it carefully, it seemed to be the case. In the end, the only same-sex friend he mentioned was Yoshida Ginjiro, a forty-year-old uncle with a girlish heart.

"When you can only name a man in his forties, you've already lost," Yamada Ryo added.
