Chapter 199: Red and Yellow Visit

"Hah~ Yo, good morning, both of you." Nakamura Mine, wearing shorts and slippers, yawned lazily. Every strand of hair on his head, which had not been taken care of for a long time, had its own consciousness.

Since the beginning of summer vacation, after returning from the training camp, Nakamura Mine has been living an extremely lazy life except for working part-time at Fanxing or teaching Nakano Azusa.

If it weren't for Ijichi Kouka saying that she wanted to design the band's uniform today, I would probably have stayed at home and rotted away all day.

"Wow~ Feng, you really don't care about your image. By the way, isn't it time to cut your hair?" Ijichi Hongxia looked at Nakamura Mine in front of her with regret. The unkempt man in front of her looked like he had entered middle age early.

"That's what I mean, it's rare for Nakamura-san to have such a good-looking face, and he usually doesn't dress up well." Kita Ikuyo also expressed her condemnation. As a face-obsessed person, she really felt sorry for this.

(If I just put a little more thought into my clothes, I would be fine...)

Nakamura Mine felt a little nervous when he was stared at by Kita Ikuyo, which made him quickly change the subject.

"Well, compared to this, when I came down just now, I saw an incredible thing hanging on Ichiri's house." Nakamura Mine said as he led the way.

"Something extraordinary? Goto-kun's house?"

"I always have a bad feeling..." Ijichi Hongxia thought about Goto Ichiri's daily behavior and always felt something was wrong.

(My premonition came true!)

Ijichi Hinikaka and Kita Ikuyo saw a huge banner on the roof that read "Welcome to the band, wish you all a relaxing and happy time". For a moment, there was no sound around except the noisy Zen voice.

"Isn't this the right place?" Although the facts were right in front of her, Ijichi Hongxia still wanted to struggle.

"Well, I don't think there are any other families around here that will welcome us 'like this'." Seeing that both of them were stunned, Nakamura Mine was very satisfied. In fact, when he first went out this morning and saw this thing, he was stunned for a long time before he recovered.

"Does Goto-san's family run a hotel?"

"No, they are just ordinary people."

"Anyway!"

Ichichi Hongxia rang the doorbell.

"Ahhh! Mamamama, open the door right now!"

Goto Ichiri, who had been standing at the entrance for nearly an hour, hurriedly opened the door after hearing the sound. Then the three of them saw Goto Ichiri, dressed in party clothes, setting off small fireworks at them.

"ye, yeah~! we, welcome~!"

Ijichi Kouka and Kita Ikuyo briefly stopped thinking, but Nakamura Mine seemed to have expected this and just yawned.

"Pochi-chan, you seem very happy." Ijichi Hongxia's brain started working again.

"Ah, yes."

(It's so cold...)

"I feel very happy. It's obvious that Goto-san is also looking forward to today."

(Kita-san’s kindness warmed my heart even though I was in a cold mood.)

"Please, please come in..."

"Good~"

"excuse me."

Goto Ichiri's room was on the second floor. When Nakamura Mine was about to go upstairs following Ijichi Kouka and Kita Ikuyo, he was suddenly pulled over by a pair of hands.

"What's wrong? Uncle Naoki, Aunt Michiyo."

The ones who dragged Nakamura Mine into the living room were actually Goto Ichiri's parents, and they were looking at Nakamura Mine with surprised and expectant eyes.

"Xiao Feng, what Yili said about some friends coming to play was just a delusion, wasn't it?" Goto Naoki asked anxiously.

"Well, as you can see, those two are real, not delusional."

"You didn't pay for it, did you?"

"Hmm? Are you asking me this question again? No, they are all members of our band. Wait, do you think that I am lying about Yili and I playing in a band again?"

Faced with Nakamura Mine's questioning look, Goto's parents both avoided his gaze at the same time. Obviously, they seemed to have really thought so in their hearts.

"Well... However, we can all see the child's recent progress. Not long ago, I heard that Yili took the initiative to say hello to the neighbor's grandmother. Although he ran away in the end, this is already considerable progress." Goto Michiyo said, covering her cheek with her hands with a look of relief.

When Nakamura Mine heard this, he immediately thought of the old lady watering the flowers who he had asked Goto Ichiri to chat up in the past simulation.

(No way? But it seems that Ichiri himself was also trying hard, although he still ran away in the end.)

"Dad, Mom, what are you talking about with Afeng?" Goto Ichiri asked as he came down the stairs.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. You came down here to get a drink, right? Barley tea or juice or milk?" Goto Michiyo quickly evaded the question.

"Barley, barley tea will be enough... No... Wouldn't it be better to use some more fashionable drinks?" Goto Ichiri was in a dilemma.

"Didn't you ask them?" asked Mine Nakamura.

"Ah! I-I'll go ask right now!"

"No need, Hongxia said barley tea will do." Nakamura Mine took out his cell phone and showed the message sent by Ijichi Hongxia, which roughly said that he heard Goto Ichiri's panicked voice upstairs or predicted that something like this would happen.

After a while, Nakamura Mine carried the teapot and Goto Ichiri carried the cup and went upstairs together. Before they reached the door, the laughter in the room reached their ears.

"Hey, big sister, play Castle in the Sky on the guitar. I've heard Brother Feng play it before, it sounds great!" Goto Jiri said happily while sitting in Kita Ikuyo's arms.

"Then I'll let Nakamura-san teach me and then I'll play it for you next time, okay?" Kita Ikuyo answered with a smile while hugging Goto Jiri. When Nakamura Mine saw this scene, he suddenly felt that if Jiri didn't look like Ichiri, they might get along more like a brother and sister with Kita, whom he had just met.

On the other side, Ichichi Hongxia's arms were being occupied by Jimmy Henry.

Nakamura Mine and Goto Ichiri felt like they had lost to a five-year-old child and a puppy in different ways at the same time.

"Two, two, my sisters have something important to discuss. You and Jimmy Hen should go downstairs and find mom and dad first."

"Eh~! That's so boring!" Goto Jiri was obviously reluctant.

"It's okay for me to stay here, Erli." said Kita Ikuyo.

"Yeah, that's totally OK with me too." Ijichi Hongxia also said that she didn't care about it.

"No no... no no, I can't do that. I can't let go if my sister is here." Goto Ichiri's anxious and trembling voice showed that what she said was true.

Chapter 200: Both the host and the guests are happy

"Hey~ Pochi-chan, so you were in a relaxed state when you were with me before?" Ijichi Hongxia was surprised.

"Okay, Erli, I'll come and play with you tomorrow. You can go down and play first." Feeling that the situation would become stalemate if it continued like this, Nakamura Mine finally spoke.

"Really?! It's a deal then!" After hearing what Nakamura Mine said, Goto Jiri, who had originally looked reluctant, immediately jumped out of Kita Ikuyo's arms happily, and then ran downstairs happily with Jimmy Henry.

"Hmm...it seems like Xiao Erli seems to listen to A Feng more than his sister?"

The facts stated by Ijichi Kouka dealt a heavy blow to Goto Ichiri.

"Okay! Then let's design a T-shirt to commemorate the end of the band! Everyone can use these to draw whatever they want." Ijichi Hongxia took out three doodle books with cute covers that looked like they were used in kindergarten or elementary school from her bag, and she herself used a tablet computer to draw.

"Okay~"

"it is good."

"clear."

"The safest way is to just use the band's logo, but I want to make it into merchandise and sell it at shows."

(Hong, Hongxia is only thinking about making money!)

Goto Ichiri felt emotional, but since she wasn't in charge of the business, she had no idea how much it cost to form a band.

"If you can come up with a better solution, adopt it."

"Okay, Nakamura-san and Goto-san, let's work hard together!" Kita Ikuyo said with encouragement.

"Good, good."

Nakamura Mine has already started writing and seems to be very motivated.

"The painting is done." After a few minutes, Nakamura Mine put down his paintbrush and generously picked up his finished work to show others.

The three girls looked at it and their faces froze.

"Isn't this just a portrait of you, Feng, printed on a T-shirt?! But having said that, you draw really well..." Ijichi Hongxia half-propped herself up and tapped Nakamura Feng's head with an electronic pen.

As Ijichi Kouka said, the drawing paper of Nakamura Mine did have a 2D headshot of Nakamura Mine drawn in the middle of the T-shirt, and he even covered the lower half of his face with his palm in a very childish way. In fact, he also secretly designed several versions with different poses, which were basically designed to imitate the image of Lelouch in his memory.

"Has Mr. Nakamura ever learned to paint?" Kita Ikuyo asked curiously. She discovered that Nakamura Mine had an additional great skill, and at the same time she was very curious whether he had any other abilities that he had not yet demonstrated.

"Well, no, but I have practiced it for a while. It's not something that can be put on the table." Nakamura Mine was telling the truth, but in fact, his painting ability was at this level mostly because of his hands.

"No, how could that be? This is already amazing."

"Hey, hey~ Kita, actually I've wanted to ask you this for a long time, aren't you too polite when talking to us?" Nakamura Mine deliberately said in a slightly dissatisfied voice, and at the same time gave Ijichi Kouka a look, who instantly understood his meaning.

"Yeah, yeah, I've always had that feeling. Even Pochi-chan calls us by our names, but Kita-chan still uses honorifics."

"Huh? I didn't..." Kita was obviously flustered by the sudden attack and wanted to explain, but Nakamura Mine didn't give her the chance.

"If you don't call us by our names anymore, then we will have to take the lead in calling you by your name."

"This is absolutely not allowed!!!" Nakamura Mine's words sounded normal but to Kita Ikuyo it was tantamount to a threat. As a result, Kita Ikuyo surrendered directly.

Kita Ikuyo put half of her face on the table and said aggrievedly:

"Actually, I just think that everyone is a great person, so I think I should show more respect. After all, I am not qualified to be a member of the band right now..."

"No! That's not the case!" Goto Ichiri's excited words made Nakamura Mine and Ijichi Kouka, who were about to speak, choose to swallow their words and wait quietly for Goto Ichiri's words.

"Goto-san...?" Kita Ikuyo looked at Goto Ichiri, who shrank his head but spoke in a firm tone, and sat up straight unconsciously.

"Kita-san is the better one. He always seems to be shining and is very popular in school. I can't be like that no matter what... He practices guitar very hard and makes progress every day. Kita-san has always been my idol, so please, please don't say anything like he is unqualified. The band will be incomplete without any one of them!"

After finishing his illogical words, Goto Ichiri finally looked up at the other three people. What he saw were three people who lowered their heads and looked a little embarrassed.

"That... Goto-do, Ichiri, I already know, but could you please stop saying such embarrassing things? Even I would feel embarrassed."

"Pochi, are you this kind of person? I really underestimated you..."

"Yili, get out of the hospital!"

“Woooaaaaaaaaaaaa——!”

Goto Ichiri, who finally realized how shameful the words he had said were, swelled up and then exploded in a very short time.

At the same time, the door of the room, which was originally open a crack, slowly closed.

Afterwards, Kita and Goto Ichiri also came up with their own design plans. Kita completely followed the standards of the campus sports meet and wrote words like "unity", "will", and "cheer" on the clothes, which shocked Goto Ichiri who was severely allergic to sports meets.

Goto Ichiri's proposal has an artistic sense of time reversal, with meaningful zippers and chains as well as ambiguous words. Nakamura Mine feels that if he were just in junior high school, he might really feel a little moved. It's not that he can't appreciate this kind of thing now, he's just more embarrassed.

However, he felt that Goto Ichiri might have a lot of common topics with Teacher Sawako in this regard.

In the end, Kita Ikuyo and Goto Ichiri's proposals were rejected, and Nakamura Mine kept his design for the time being on the condition that he also designed a set of clothes for the other people's images.

After doing all this, at the warm invitation of the Goto couple, everyone stayed for dinner and both the guests and the hosts had a great time.

But looking at everyone chatting and laughing in harmony, Goto Ichiri gradually found that his sense of presence at home, which was already low, seemed to have decreased a lot?

(Hmm? Am I the extra one?)

Chapter 201 Rewards

"Xiao Zi, you've made great progress. It looks like you worked very hard during the summer vacation."

Standing next to the dark piano, Nakamura Mine said with great satisfaction that Nakano Azusa was not particularly talented in piano, but she could play it quite well. It was not difficult to imagine that she had put a lot of effort into it.

"Thank you very much for the compliment." Nakano Azusa showed a very satisfied smile after receiving the praise. Although she knew she still had a long way to go, it was a happy thing after all that her efforts were recognized.

"Well, since you've worked so hard, I, as your teacher, can't do nothing but show some appreciation. Ding ding ding ding~!" As he spoke, Nakamura Mine took out two tickets from his trouser pocket.

"What is this?" When Nakano Azusa saw the ticket, he had some guesses in his mind, and a look of anticipation appeared on his face.

"The ticket for 'live house' was given to me by a senior who has a good relationship with me. How about it? Are you interested?" Shaking the ticket for "Shinjuku FOLT" in his hand, Nakamura Mine was very confident that the other party would agree. After all, Nakano Azusa had expressed his admiration for the band more than once, and the result was not beyond his expectations.

"I'm interested! Is it today?!" Nakano Azusa stood up from her seat at once, and it was obvious that she was really excited. She had tried to go to the "live house" to watch performances in the past, but was directly stopped outside as if she was an elementary school student.

"Well, you can pack up and get ready to go now. I'm very familiar with the manager of that store, so it won't be a problem for you to go in early."

At the entrance of "Shinjuku FOLT", Nakamura Mine pushed open the door with Nakano Azusa who was somewhat expectant but a little reserved.

Nakano Azusa looked at the dark decoration style in front of him, and his hands involuntarily grabbed the clothes on the back of Nakamura Mine, looking a little timid.
