Lonely Rock, Liang is my fiancée

Chapter 181 [The Yamada of the World]

They chatted while waiting for dinner.

Although I don't have high expectations for the manager's cooking skills, I'd still take advantage of the free dinner if I could.

After having some extra money, Ito Rin didn't feel that his life had changed much. He still ate the discounted bento for dinner, and as long as he had something to eat, he didn't have many complaints.

"It turns out that the relationship between the store manager and Xiao Hongxia was not very good before..."

"Well, my sister before was just like me now, busy with the band all day and didn't care about me at all. If I had a younger sister, maybe the cycle would repeat itself again."

When talking about her past experiences, Xiao Hongxia was still very cheerful and it was obvious that she had come out of it.

On the contrary, Pochi-chan shut her mouth tactfully when she saw the middle-aged woman appearing in the photo of the two sisters.

If I’m not mistaken, this is Xiao Hongxia’s mother, right?

"Oh yeah, since we three have nothing to do here, let's think about the album cover!"

See you in the picture!

It turns out that classmate Hongxia is not that kind-hearted. She brought him in just to get free labor.

Ito Rin, who thought too much, drank the black tea angrily, and was surprised by the strange taste.

"No wonder Sister Guangjing kept this thing."

"Huh?" Hong Xia asked in confusion, then took a bite and frowned unnaturally.

"It really doesn't look very tasty. The taste is too strong. What do you think, little Pochi?"

"Ah, I feel fine." She looked up in confusion.

"I'm asking you about the record cover. Is it better to paint it by hand or to retouch it after taking a photo?" Hong Xia found an excuse and rubbed her face wantonly.

After feeling the soft touch, Hongxia smiled happily.

Ito Rin put down the tea and thought that the former should be her idea, and the latter was probably Xiao Kita's suggestion. Children who rely on modern technology still like to use this method to solve problems.

"Both are good..."

"Let me bring the photos over for you to see. They're pictures of us hanging out together in the past. Xiao Xiduo edited them to make them suitable for the cover." Hong Xia took out the photos of the last time they climbed the mountain from the table.

Bingo, you got it right.

Ito Rin, who was amusing herself, leaned over and thought after looking at the picture, are the people in the picture really them? Could it be a picture taken by an idol girl group when they were scouting for scenery at the foot of the mountain?

Kita-chan's PS skills have reached this level!

I might as well stop playing in a band and become a professional photographer.

Pochi-chan obviously had the same idea as him. She stared at the person above with wide eyes, and couldn't believe that it was herself.

"Little Kita..."

"You've noticed it, right? Her retouching is simply too exaggerated. If people who are attracted by the cover see the real situation of the band, they will definitely feel cheated." Honest Hong Xia patted his chest.

That’s not the case. With the makeup techniques of the island country, before the formal performance, as long as we invite a professional makeup artist, we can definitely achieve the effect shown in the photos.

"No, I think it's just right!" Pochi said firmly.

Hehe, I feel very pleasing to the eye even when looking at photos of myself like this.

"Little Pochi, stop grinning!" Hong Xia seized the opportunity to rub Little Pochi's face and help her correct her normal personality. She believed that after her guidance, she would definitely support the correct opinions.

"Wait a moment!"

The store manager's voice suddenly appeared. She hurriedly put down her dinner, raised her phone, squatted beside them, and turned on the camera mode: "Okay, continue."

"Manager, you are too skilled at being a pervert."

"Don't talk nonsense, kid. I'm a nympho." The manager scolded him loudly and encouraged Pochi-chan and the others to continue.

But with such a scary person around, even if they had the courage, they would calm down, sit down at their seats and prepare to eat.

"What a shame." The manager lamented and put the meal he had prepared himself on the table.

Although the taste was not that good, at least it was not as horrible as the last intentional murder.

After dinner, they wanted to continue discussing the record cover. Someone who couldn't get a word in became unhappy. She didn't refute, but glanced at her sister and told Hongxia to quickly jump to the next step.

"Wait a minute, at least until we discuss the general direction."

"I didn't say anything." The store manager stood up arrogantly, "You dare to try the things left by Guangjing? I'll go make you another pot of tea."

After she went out, Ito Rin gave Hongxia a thumbs up.

"Your sister is a textbook tsundere."

Hong Xia rolled her eyes at him and said, "Now the focus is on the cover. Is a photo suitable, or is a drawing better?"

Ito Rin said indifferently: "According to our style, we shouldn't choose such exaggerated photos. If Hongxia can draw the image, I don't mind."

"Ah, I have no objection either." Pochi-chan raised her hand belatedly.

"I see you have no objection to anything." Ito Rin touched her head, and the other party took it as a compliment and laughed.

“At the end of the day, the job falls back to me.”

Saying apologies in a proud tone and acting as if they have made great contributions, the Ijichi family's tsundere attitude must be inherited, right?

"Give me two days to produce the first version of the product."

After she made this promise, Ito Rin clapped in cooperation. With such a fast progress, she was worthy of being called Superman Shimokitazawa!

Now that we have finished talking about serious matters, it is time to relax.

The store manager came in at the right time with a teapot and poured the black tea left by Hiroi into the bathroom.

"How about playing games?"

Hongxia rummaged around in her own little world but couldn't find any items suitable for four people to play with. Later, she took a random look at Liang's pile of things and came up with an idea.

"It's a game suitable for two people playing against each other. It looks interesting." Hong Xia muttered the content of the game, and the store manager turned on the TV and got ready.

"But Ito-san is very good at games, right? This is going to be troublesome."

She recalled her experience during the summer vacation, when Ryo was older than them, and Ito Rin was older than Ryo.

Ito Rin excused herself: "I'm just better at fighting, that's not it."

"Why should we be afraid of him? If we form a team, we will never lose."

Xingge sat down next to her sister, quite confident.

Hongxia wanted to complain that it was because she was going to team up with her sister that she had to worry about the other party’s level being too high.

She knows best how weak her elder sister is in this aspect.

But since the store manager said so, the team situation immediately became clear. Pochi-chan followed Ito Rin to fight against the Ijichi sisters!

In name, teams are formed, but the actual battles are still between twos. The game content is essentially still a fighting game, but with some innovations in the image.

From controlling the character to punch and kill to controlling the octopus to spray ink, you can get points as long as you hit the opponent, and the one with the highest score wins.

What is tested is still the reaction speed and hand speed, plus a little proficiency.

Soon, the rankings among the four were determined. Ito Rin was the undisputed first, Hong Xia took second place thanks to her longer gaming experience, and the next was Pochi-chan, whose reaction speed improved significantly when practicing guitar.

"My sense of balance on this joystick is terrible!"

The store manager with the worst skills is actually the one who talks the most. Since his teammate is his sister and he can't complain, he has to vent his anger on the equipment.

His serious attitude when finding excuses is just as focused as Liang's when he was making excuses for not doing well in the exam!

"Hongxia, it's our turn to fight." Ito Rin picked up the joystick and invited Hongxia.

She also ignited a burning fighting spirit. In this game of grabbing positions, she had been the winner for so long, and she absolutely could not let Ito Rin snatch the title away from her today.

Shoot, dodge, shoot again...

The simple gameplay becomes exciting due to the addition of battle rankings.

Ito Rin felt that she had a great talent for this type of game, so when dodging, she would deliberately control the character to be hit by more bullets, and then wait for Hongxia's quiet cheers.

I would even lose a few games on purpose to boost her fighting spirit.

"It's nothing more than that."

Another round of competition ended, Hong Xia gracefully put down the joystick and spoke modestly of the feeling that she felt as if she had reached the top of the world.

"Nijiya-san is still the best at playing." Ito Rin praised her.

"It's amazing that you can reach this level in your first try. If you try a few more times, you will definitely be better than me."

The two men began to flatter each other, and the battle at the bottom of Tianwang Mountain came to an end.

Pochi-chan had a similar idea as him and wanted to give points to make the manager happy, but because of her poor acting skills, she accidentally let the cat out of the bag, which instead aroused the manager's even higher morale.

"Wow."

Looking at the score on the interface, Pochi-chan fell to the ground dejectedly.

You actually won like this, manager, you really should change the game.

"No, until I win first place tonight, none of you three can sleep!" The manager gripped the joystick tightly.

"Why? And if you want to take first place, the three of us will have to stay up all night tonight."

"This is the store manager's order!"

The sisters started arguing, Pochi-chan's face was full of envy, and Ito Rin tactfully quit the game. He took a quick look and found that his score was ten times that of the manager.

If you don't quit the game, someone will be carried out of this room.

"Also, before playing the game, learn about the game settings first. Pressing the L key can restore the ink!"

"Is there still such a way?"

After he quit the game, a new player joined the four-person room and jumped around in front of the three octopuses, looking very annoying.

Ito Rin leaned in front of the screen and carefully studied the other party's game ID.

【Yamada of the World】

As expected of her!

When Liangjiang controlled her character and sprayed ink on the quarreling Ijichi sisters, the war between women finally began.

"The Yamada of the world?!"

"Everyone, come together and take care of that bastard Yamada!"

Chapter 182: Inviting the Genius Yamada Ryo to Take Credit

The next day, the stars.

Xiao Xiduo looked at the four people in the store who all looked drowsy, and grabbed his hair in confusion.

"Did everyone get enough rest last night?"

Ito Rin yawned, not knowing how to explain.

Under the stimulation of Yamada Ryo, all of them got excited and played a simple little game all night long.

And in the end, the store manager still didn't achieve his goal of first place.

Hongxia hung her head and Yamada Ryo lay on the table.

Xiao Xiduo suddenly realized and was moved by his own thoughts, "So everyone is working so hard for the record? I want to work hard too!"

I didn't guess it right at all!

Yamada Ryo yawned and glanced at Ito Rin.

She had been unable to squeeze into the four-person room last night, and after she got in, the Ijichi sisters, who were usually bullied by her, would occasionally act like different people.

She suddenly asked, "That person last night was you, wasn't it?"

"What?" Ito Rin looked at her in confusion.

"Don't play dumb. What were you doing at her house so late at night?" Yamada Ryo raised his head, looking as if he had discovered evidence of a crime.
