Don't think that just because this is a rock music stage, you can act like you're expecting a fight.

Iwashita Shima held her forehead with her hand. She had no idea in advance that Hiroi would actually make a scene in such a place. When she was about to pull her away forcefully, the boy who was pushed to the crest of the wave slowly spoke.

"Sister Hiroi, don't take Pochi-chan as your own without permission. She's the one who ended the band with us."

After saying that, Ito Rin first pulled Goto Ichiri, who was still in a trance, over, and stared at Hiroi Kikuri with a gleam in her eyes.

"As for what you said, I don't deny it."

"This is a trait that all skilled people should have, to be proud but not arrogant. I don't think it will affect the team's performance, so you don't need to worry about it, Sister Hiroi."

Hiroi Kikuri laughed heartlessly, and it was hard to tell that she was the one who had just questioned Ito Rin on the stage.

"Don't talk so nicely. If the performance doesn't satisfy me, I'll be angry."

Pochi-chan, whose mind had just barely recovered from the shutdown state, faced Hiroi who spoke for her, "Sister, if there is a problem, it must be related to me..."

"You are so stupid. I am already helping you to pass the buck in advance!"

Hiroi Kikuri looked at Pochi-chan with disappointment, wondering how come she couldn't even understand her intentions.

What a fool!

It turns out that we still need our seniors to take good care of us.

After figuring out her intentions, Hongxia could no longer remain calm. Together with Ito Rin, she pulled Pochi-chan away from this unreliable person.

"Stop talking nonsense, it's their turn to go on stage." Iwashita Shima said, and then dragged her off the stage despite her resistance.

Such a chaotic stage performance actually won cheers from the audience.

So, the audiences who like Hiroi Band are indeed strange people.

After getting into position and counting to three in her mind, Ito Rin and Hong Xia beside her looked at each other, and when they looked down at the stage, they also became nervous.

After all, I haven't seen such a big scene for a long time, so it's inevitable that I would be a little out of control.

"Hello everyone, we are the Ending Band!"

Kita Ikuyo, who was in charge of the announcement, tuned the guitar in front of her and shouted loudly to the audience.

Everything began after the announcement. The songs that had been practiced to perfection were slowly played out from their hands, and the instruments produced a pleasant ensemble.

And this is just the beginning of real rock music.

“This Christmas, follow us for a sleepless concert!”

……

When the band left the stage, the audience's warm applause and cheers continued to ring out from below the stage. Ijichi Kouka stopped Xiao Kita, who was about to smash his guitar because he had lost the game, and looked with contempt at Ito Rin, who had already packed up her things and walked to the edge of the stage.

This person is awful in every way!

"Xiao Xiduo, before you smash it, think carefully about the money you spent on buying a guitar."

Realistic problems can often play a very powerful role in alerting people. Xiao Xiduo, who originally wanted to smash the equipment with a very cool move, trembled all over.

She doesn't want to be burdened with the loan for another two years!

"And you play the piano no worse than Pochi-chan, you're improving very quickly."

As the only two reliable people in the band, Hongxia will definitely give encouragement after warning little Kita, so that Kita-chan can perform better.

Pochi-chan, who was watching quietly, showed a look of enlightenment after hearing it. She understood what her senior meant, and her guitar-playing friend beside her kept reminding her.

"It seems that we have failed. Please accept the defeat and smash me!"

I'm sorry, Guitar-kun, I'm too weak. Don't worry, I will summon you again when I have mastered the skills again.

With a strange realization in mind, Pochi-chan raised the guitar high, and the black instrument emitted a charming luster under the light.

Ito Rin knew that it was the light of money.

"Pochi-chan, what do you think you're holding?"

"Ah... it's the guitar for the unskilled."

"Wrong, that's a guitar worth millions. It may take several years to pay it off. I suggest you calm down."

Ito Rin used money to make her face the reality, and also caused the audience who were waiting for the show to begin to boo in dissatisfaction.

"We have waited so long, are we going to smash it or not?"

"Hurry up, Christmas time is precious."

"Don't delay my date later!"

"The person who came to listen to Miss Hiroi actually has a partner. Are you kidding me?"

This group of guys are pretty much in the mood to watch the fun and not mind getting involved.

Ito Rin ignored them and packed up her things to leave with the band members.

At this time, I encountered the same situation as when I last played.

But last time it was the people who were leaving who pulled them to chat, this time it was the people who were coming on who pulled them.

Ito Rin wanted to hang a sign on her chest saying "I don't want to communicate". If she really had something to say, couldn't she say it after everyone's performance?

Why do you have to say it at this time? Did you agree on it beforehand?

"Goto-do."

Fortunately, he was not singled out for criticism this time.

Yuyuko looked at Goto Ichiri who wanted to escape with a cold gaze. She would not escape even if the opponent was two Tokyo Domes.

“Instruments are capable of responding to the performers and have unique souls. Don’t use them to play boring games.”

She also saw Goto's attempt to smash the guitar. As a guitarist and lead singer who is particularly passionate about the music industry, of course she had to say something.

As for why I didn't tell Xiao Xiduo who also had this behavior...

That was in her mind, and only Goto Doku was a worthy opponent.

Kita Ikuyo?

Just a passerby.

Little Pochi, who didn't have much of her own opinion, could only nod in agreement when she heard this very correct statement. It was not until Hongxia reminded her that she realized that Miss Youyouko's band had already started performing on the stage.

"You should correct your personality that is easily influenced by others."

"Yes, Senior..."

Chapter 66: Gathering of Three Dark Elements

"Merry Christmas!"

The crisp sound of glasses colliding could be heard in the Starry Shop.

After successfully completing today's performance, they returned to Fanxing, preparing to celebrate the festival and the store manager's birthday.

When you think about it this way, it’s not just a Christmas party, but also a birthday party, so the lively atmosphere is inevitably more intense.

After clinking their opening drinks, Ijichi Hongxia and Kokitaka walked onto the stage with microphones in their hands.

At this point in time, the people who stayed behind were all friends who had finished their bands, and the normal customers had all left long ago at the normal closing time.

So the two most popular people in the team will be responsible for hosting tonight's party.

"Thank you all very much for coming to Fanxing's Christmas party today." Ijichi Hongxia wore a red Santa hat on her head, playfully covering her long ponytail, and she wore a red button down belt that she almost never took off on her casual clothes.

"Today's emcees will be Ijichi and Kita!" The little red hat on Kita Ikuyo's head is in the opposite direction of Hongxia's, and the red plaid shirt she is wearing is particularly suitable for the atmosphere of tonight.

Ito Rin, who was sitting in the audience, shouted in cooperation and toasted his girlfriend with a drink.

"I will always love everyone who ends the band!"

Xiao Xiduo, who took this as a sweet confession, smiled even more, "Then please disappear for the rest of the day..."

A gloomy atmosphere came from the corner of the Stars. That was not the seat the store manager usually liked to sit in. It was not suitable for her since she was the birthday girl today, so it was occupied by Pochi-chan and Yamada Ryo.

There is no need to say anything; you can tell from the cold expressions on their faces and their concentration on food.

They are expressing the same meaning at the same time.

"What an annoying Christmas party, let's end it quickly."

Pochi-chan and the others are already used to it, why is it that even Yamada Ryo is so listless?

"Ryo-chan, cheer up. It's not even ten o'clock yet. Don't look like you want to sleep." Ito Rin said loudly.

She took a bite of French fries, glanced at Ito Rin, and turned away.

“This tastes good.”

"Yes, it's delicious."

So it turned into a food discussion?

"...Is Christmas the anniversary of some ancestor's death?" The emcee on the stage began to doubt his life, and Kita Ikuyo leaned into Hongxia's ear and asked in a low voice.

"On the contrary, it's Christmas and my birthday, and my sister is having a party today." Hongxia's mother was helpless with people who didn't understand the atmosphere.

It would be difficult to liven up the atmosphere within the Stars with just the three of them.

"excuse me!"

The door was pushed open, and the snow and wind outside rushed in through the gap. When Ito Rin, who was sitting closest to the entrance, wanted to tell the customers that the shop was closed, she saw several familiar faces.

Because they had just met not long ago, their captain had caused indescribable psychological pressure on Pochi-chan.

"Christmas party to celebrate the success of the live, can you bring us along?"

"Thank you so much!"

Ichichi Hongxia, who took the initiative to invite them to the party, welcomed them on the stage, forcing Ito Rin to sit back in her seat obediently.

She had long thought that if the band just ended the performance, the audience would lose interest, so she actually invited the rival band's opponents to come over.

What a cunning captain!

"Hey, is this because a very important person is missing?" Kita Ikuyo counted the people who came and found that there were only four, so he asked in confusion.

No matter what, their relationship with Hiroi-sister should be closer than that with Youyouko and the others.

And it was Hiroi who invited them to perform, so she was an important member no matter how you looked at it.

"I was worried that the party would be ruined, so I didn't call her." Ijichi Hongxia stuck out her tongue apologetically.

It would be fine if Sister Hiroi caused some trouble at an ordinary gathering, but this time it was her 30th birthday!

On such an auspicious day, it is better to eliminate all destabilizing factors.

"Ah, welcome, welcome, a warm welcome."

Seeing that Yamada Ryo and the others were still immersed in the food and didn't even raise their heads when the guests came in, Ito Rin tactfully took on the job of creating the atmosphere.

"Thank you so much!"

Unlike the irresponsible Captain Youyouko, Hasegawa Ami greeted them in a friendly manner. But when she saw that the captain had consciously sat in the corner, she couldn't help but feel a little headache.

"Besides, today's party is my sister's birthday party!"

"Happy 30th birthday, store manager!"

Ito Rin caught the key words and was the first to shout for celebration. He remembered clearly that the store manager, who liked to call himself in his twenties, would finally have to face reality after today.

Twenty-one and twenty-nine are two completely different concepts. It is because of people like you, the store manager, who confuse people that the trust between people is decreasing!

"Hey, the store manager is turning thirty years old starting today!!"

Ito Rin was cheering with bad intentions, but Kita was sincerely celebrating the store manager's growth, completely unaware that this was reminding the woman that the best stage of her life was over.

It's just like rubbing salt into the wound!

"Okay, let's stop talking about the birthday party!" Yidizhi Xingge quickly stretched out her hand and told them that she was in a bad mood.

Stop dancing on the minefield.
