Tokyo Love Story

Chapter 261 I Have a Friend [4K]

[On the contemporary stage, there is such a unique male singer, born in an ordinary family, but rising like the rising sun. ]

[From "First Love", where his singing skills were still flawed when he first arrived, to his current perfection, he has shocked the entire Japanese music scene with one song after another. ]

[Even his technical improvement in each song is completely visible to the naked eye.]

[From lyrics to music, and then to recording, everything was done by him and his partner Yuki. ]

[In a sense, this young singer Jay has taught all singers in the Japanese music scene a good lesson, especially for the young and middle-aged singers.]

[I don’t know where this cross-era talented singer will go in the future, but I know one thing clearly, no matter what the future holds, at the moment, he has created a miracle that cannot be replicated.]

[In short, in short, this young singer is still on the road, and I sincerely hope that he can create more brilliant pearls. ]

"so……"

After putting away his phone and reading [Famous music critic's evaluation of emerging singer Jay], Kiriyama Taku picked up the rice ball in his hand and looked at Kitagawa Che in front of him with anticipation.

"so?"

Kitagawa Che put down the chopsticks in his hand, raised his eyebrows, and met Kiriyama Taku's gaze helplessly.

It was lunch time, and there were not many people in the classroom. Besides, everyone was either gathered in groups of three or five, discussing school gossip while eating, or enjoying their lunch quietly at their seats, so they didn't have to worry about others hearing their discussion or even interfering.

"That's what I told you on Line on Saturday! Ah Che, have you forgotten?"

Kiriyama Taku didn't care about the helplessness in Kitagawa Che's tone. He raised his eyebrows and there was a little more expectation in his eyes.

"You mean for me to register an account and sing a cover song?"

Beichuan Che looked away, and his tone became more complicated.

"Yes!"

Kiriyama Taku nodded excitedly.

"From what I know, it seems that covers of that person's songs are not allowed."

Beichuan Che looked strange for a moment, then tactfully reminded this guy.

"It's just that covers for commercial purposes are not allowed." Kiriyama Taku seriously corrected Kitagawa Che's statement, "If someone asks about your cover, it's a tribute! Anyway, you didn't charge for it."

He was quite looking forward to seeing Kitagawa Che shine.

There are singers who cover Jay’s songs now, but their singing skills are far inferior to those of Kitagawa Che.

If Kitagawa Che could write songs, even if the quality was not as good as Jay's, but was only slightly worse than his, he would still win applause from the audience.

"Come on, I'm not interested in this."

Beichuan Che waved his hand, clearly showing his attitude.

All right. "

Seeing that Kitagawa Che was so tough, Kiriyama Takuya no longer thought about trying to persuade him.

As one of Kitagawa Che's friends, he claims to know this heartthrob quite well.

There is absolutely no chance of doing something that this guy has clearly refused, no matter how soft or hard you try.

unless……

Kiriyama Taku turned his head and secretly glanced at Kitaen Rin who was lying down to rest.

This person is willing to help.

However, this is obviously unlikely.

"Then let's change the topic." Kiriyama Taku coughed lightly, and his voice unconsciously became softer, "Let's talk about emotional issues."

"Let's talk about relationships?"

Kitagawa Che repeated what Kiriyama Taku said, then raised his head and looked at him in surprise.

The most common keyword he heard from this guy was gossip, and as for "emotional problems", the number of times he heard it was almost counted on one hand.

To put it more appropriately, it was really too outrageous for these words to come out of Kiriyama Taku's mouth.

"Yes." Kiriyama Taku nodded. He looked at Kitagawa Che, then at Kitaen Rinyin who was taking a nap on the table. After hesitating for a long time, he couldn't help but whispered in his defense, "It's not strange for me to talk about this!"

"Uh, do you really think so?"

Beichuan Che gave him a strange look.

"Why not?"

Kiriyama Taku puffed out his chest, looking like he was thinking this.

"Hmm..." Beichuan Che retracted his gaze and paused, "Then do you want to hear the truth? I personally think that this may also be the idea of ​​most of the class."

"You said."

Kiriyama Taku gave the answer without even thinking.

This wasn't an important social occasion, and he would rather hear the truth than those hypocritical conversations.

——Even if the truth may not sound so nice.

"The truth is that it's really weird that you talk about these things."

Beichuan Che shrugged and put a spoonful of rice into his mouth.

He remembered it very clearly. Someone had just delivered a classic Bible sermon last month.

"Oh! You are prejudiced!"

Kiriyama Taku sneered in dissatisfaction.

"Prejudice?" After swallowing the rice in his mouth, Beichuan Che imitated someone else's tone and repeated the two sentences again, "Dating? Even dogs wouldn't do that!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kiriyama Taku's expression immediately became subtle.

That's exactly what he said.

Moreover, the tone in which he said this was so decisive that, if nothing unexpected happened, two-thirds of the boys in the class should have heard it.

"Well, just like you said, people always change. Besides, I said this at that time because of the atmosphere. It's not my true words. How can I take the words of a scholar at that time seriously?"

He scratched the side of his face, smiled awkwardly, looked away, and started talking about the surroundings.

Beichuan Che just smiled, but did not dwell on it and chose to remain silent.

"Anyway!" Kiriyama Taku coughed lightly and straightened his expression, "I have a question I want to ask you, Che."

Seeing his serious look, Beichuan Che also became interested. He put down his chopsticks temporarily, raised his head, and nodded seriously.

"I have a friend."

Kiriyama Taku took a deep breath, glanced around, and then uttered this classic opening line.

Um. "

Hearing such a sentence structure, Beichuan Che almost couldn't hold it in. The sentence 'The friend you are talking about, is it you?' was even stuck in his throat. If he hadn't reacted quickly, this sentence would have been blurted out.

"He's been getting close to a certain girl lately." Kiriyama Taku paused, his expression showing some hesitation, "That girl isn't very pretty, and she's not even in my friend's good range.

“But many things don’t make sense, like no one would have thought Jay would be able to top the Hot Songs chart.

"My friend's words seemed to have become a passing cloud. Even if I just had a simple chat with her, my heart would unconsciously speed up.

"To use my friend's description, she was like the heroine in a movie. She just stood there and then, 'click', an invisible spotlight seemed to shine on her.

"His eyes were fixed on her, unable to move away.

“He was very distressed by this.”

Having said that, Kiriyama Taku let out a long breath, with an indescribable sense of disappointment in his eyes.

He knew that he might, no, had already fallen in love with Kiyono Akino.

But he has lost his former free and easy attitude. Even though he likes it, he dare not take another step forward.

If you don't take the initiative, there will be no possibility of being rejected.

In other words, I can safely keep a place by her side.

"What are you worried about?"

Kitagawa Che continued where Kiriyama Taku was going.

“He was a little hesitant.”

Kiriyama Taku glanced at Kitagawa Che, hesitated for a moment, and finally said this.

He knew that Beichuan Che had actually seen through it.

But, now that things have come to this, he doesn't want to just let it go.

Even if Beichuan Che couldn't give him some constructive advice, he still hoped that someone would listen to him.

At least this way, he wouldn't be too worried about gains and losses.

He didn’t believe it before, but now, he feels that the music review written in the comment section of "Don’t Go" is so appropriate - love is a hand that is extended but then withdrawn.

“Afraid of losing?”

Beichuan Che lowered his head and put a piece of fried chicken into his mouth.

The chicken steak was fried by Rinyin this morning.

I have to say that my fiancée's cooking skills are getting better and better. Whether it is the crispness or the taste, it is impeccable.

"more or less."

Kiriyama Taku turned his head and looked at the sunlight that passed through the curtains, through the glass, and sprinkled onto the wooden floor of the classroom, making people feel inexplicably warm.

"There's no such thing as almost." Beichuan Che shook his head, put the chopsticks into the lunch box, and then closed the lid, saying meaningfully, "Yes, yes, no, no. Being vague will only make you feel uncomfortable in the end."

Kiriyama Taku was silent for a moment, took a bite of the half-eaten rice ball in his hand, and after swallowing the rice and the meat stuffing inside, he pursed his lips and nodded honestly, "Yes."

"But more often than not, not taking the initiative doesn't mean you won't lose." Beichuan Che glanced at the closed lunch box and couldn't help but chuckle. A certain attendant was afraid that she wouldn't be full, so she took the initiative to add a third of rice and chicken chop, but it was obvious that she overestimated her appetite. He raised his eyebrows and continued, "It's even the opposite."

"On the contrary?"

Kiriyama Taku stared blankly at Kitagawa Che in front of him.

He had great respect and admiration for this classmate and good friend.

As for the jokes that everyone usually makes, the only things he can listen to, besides teacher Makoto Tsuchiya, are Kitagawa Che.

"How do you feel about yourself..." Beichuan Che reacted and immediately changed the subject, "How about the girl that friend likes?"

"She?" Kiriyama Taku was silent for a moment. "In the eyes of my friends, she is a girl who is very considerate of others."

"So do your friends think she's attractive?"

Kitagawa Che then asked.

"Of course there is." Kiriyama Taku gave an affirmative answer without thinking, "If not, how could he fall in love with her."

“When beautiful flowers bloom, many people can see them.”

Beichuan Che said this meaningfully.

As soon as he finished speaking, Kiriyama Taku felt his heart tighten inexplicably.

He knew very well that Beichuan Che was telling the truth, but because of this, he started to panic for no reason.

If another boy confessed to Kiyono Akino...

Just thinking about that scene, he felt like he was about to suffocate.

"So..." Beichuan Che thought for a moment and added in Chinese, "When flowers are in bloom, pick them right away. Don't wait until there are no flowers left to pluck."

? ”

Kiriyama Taku raised his head and looked at Kitagawa Che with some curiosity.

He heard the latter sentence, but didn't understand it.

"These are two lines from an ancient poem." Beichuan Che considered the words and explained, "It means that when the flowers are in bloom, we should hurry up and pick them, and don't wait until the flowers fade and only get an empty branch.

“Taking the initiative always has the possibility of success.

"But if we just plan to wait, then there is really no possibility at all.
