Lonely Rock, Liang is my fiancée

"That little girl Hongxia, she knew Ito but she didn't introduce him to us."

The main feature of the small performance hall is the close contact between the audience and the idols. Their conversation was clearly heard by Ito Rin. He was used to this kind of thing and didn't mind it. Instead, he smiled at them, causing cheers from these unfamiliar classmates.

Zailiang and Hongxia were ready and put their mouths to the microphone.

"Hello everyone, this is the closing band, and the song we are going to sing is "We Will Rock You"

“This will be the end of our band, but it will be the beginning of rocking for the audience.”

Goto Ichiri consciously moved to the corner of the performance hall, staring blankly at the three dazzling people on the stage, and recalled his original intention of forming a band.

Isn't it just about becoming someone as shining as them?

"Ito is indeed a very powerful person."

Chapter 6 The Only Guitarist

The black-haired PA lady walked up to Pochi-chan. Her job was taken over by Xingge, the sister-con man, so she had to leave the small space and come out to watch the performance.

Now Ito on the stage is like the brightest part of the stars. Through his voice and movements, he easily leads the audience to sway to his rhythm. No wonder she said that.

"Ah, ah, ah, yes, yes."

Goto Ichiri's brain was overloaded again after being talked to, which made the PA lady even more interested.

“You’re so funny.”

interesting?

This must be a compliment!

After being affirmed, Pochi-chan immediately transformed into a fantasy monster, rubbing her cheeks and giggling.

"I'm not as good as you say."

"It seems like you misunderstood what I meant, but it's really interesting."

Ito Rin was almost shouting out the lyrics. The lead singer in a band is a very key person and many times, the lead singer can determine the upper limit.

In a complete band, the guitar part that the lead singer is usually responsible for is not that difficult, but in the current situation, he almost has to take on the responsibility of conducting, not to mention the job of lead singer.

He is not a superman, and especially under such high-intensity work, he has to remind Hongxia the rhythm of the drums, which makes him physically and mentally exhausted.

Now Ito also saw the situation clearly. Ryo's level was a level lower than his, and Nijigasaki was much worse than Ryo, not to mention Pochi-chan who was so stage-frightened that she hid in the box.

Fortunately, the expectation of controlling the situation was achieved, and the song chosen was also extremely suitable. The audience who did not have time to leave gathered in front of the stage and clapped out the beat with their hands, thus covering up the lack of tacit understanding among the three people.

"Ito-kun looks so handsome when he's being naughty like this!"

"I heard about it. When Ito-kun first entered school, he played keyboard in a band. I didn't expect that he could play guitar so well."

"Tell me the truth, are you planning to do something bad by collecting this information?"

The high school girls were playing around wantonly, and Liang, with her hair loose, turned sideways, feeling unhappy.

He should be a cousin of the same type as her, so why is he so popular among girls? If he is a genius, he should maintain some of the characteristics of a genius.

Can't you learn from my cousin, coldly reject all social interactions and become a weirdo in the eyes of ordinary people?

Instead of being like a socialite, spreading seeds all over the campus!

Liang was distracted and playing the music relying on his body memory, unaware that the tune had gone off track.

"Buddy you're a young man, hard man..."

It was suddenly so loud, did Hongxia make a mistake again?

When he looked towards the center again, Yamada Ryo saw Ito Rin's expression, and then he realized that he was the one who made the mistake.

Ito Rin withdrew her stern gaze, speechless that this woman could be distracted on the stage.

Fortunately, the audience in the audience were all half-baked, and their demands were particularly tolerant because of themselves.

I just didn't expect that in the end, I would still have to rely on this face to make a living...

During a brief lull in the lyrics, Ito Rin left the microphone and faced the bassist as usual, holding her guitar.

Yamada Ryo's hair slightly covers half of her eyes, and there is no expression on her delicate white face. She lowers her head and concentrates on playing the bass. She has a slender figure with excellent proportions. When she wears her favorite neutral clothing, she always has a peculiar charm.

But no matter how charming you are, you should at least give me some feedback!

Playing bass alone, do you think you are a guitarist?

No matter how Ito Rin hinted, Liang just didn't turn to his side. He would rather turn around and face Hongxia, which was in line with the rock style.

This is definitely a deliberate attempt to cause trouble, right?

In desperation, the rhythm of the lyrics caught up again, and Ito Rin was tied to the microphone again.

"Why is Liang's neck red? Are you sick?"

Hong Xia, who tried her best to keep up with their pace, actually saw more things from the perspective of a bystander.

The song is over.

Ito Rin kept reminding herself of the one million yen and resisted the urge to smash the guitar.

'Something I can't afford to pay for!'

“Thank you for coming to listen to the closing band’s performance. I hope we can pass on better songs to everyone in the future.”

Another role of the lead singer is also revealed at this time, that is, to act as a socialite to communicate with the audience.

Fortunately, this fledgling band didn't have annoying peripherals or die-hard fans, and those classmates who recognized him didn't have the courage to come up and talk to him, which made his communication task go exceptionally smoothly.

“I hope everyone will continue to support us as we finish the band, and thank you again for coming.”

"Can the lead singer sign an autograph for me?"

When he was packing up his guitar, a girl with long hair walked up to him and shyly took out a pen and paper.

It was the first time that Ito Rin encountered such a thing and he was stunned for a moment. He had not yet thought of his stage name, but looking at the young lady's expectant eyes, he took the paper and pen with a wry smile.

【Cold】

He translated the meaning of his name into English so that it wouldn't be considered a real-name debut. He is truly a genius.

After noticing the eager expressions of those classmates who had remembered it, Ito Rin quickly picked up her guitar and ran back to the backstage.

"Yamada Ryo, what the hell were you doing just now!"

After solemnly returning the one million to its original owner, Ito Rin began to settle the score.

He looked at his cousin who was whistling there with a bad look. Did she think she could get away with this trick?

"Hey, is there any problem?" Liang had a puzzled expression and looked very innocent.

After the incident, the shyness she felt when her mistake was pointed out disappeared, and she was no longer afraid of this cousin.

"I, I, I..."

"Oh, that's right, Zhongjianliang, why did you turn your head away? Even if it's rock and roll, this movement is too big." Hongxia, who was drinking water, raised her hand and asked.

"I couldn't help laughing when I saw his face. In order to ensure that the concert could go on, I had no choice but to not look at him." Liang said with his hands clasped together.

In order to cover up the embarrassment of being caught distracted, she made up a lie naturally.

Compared to the excuses used when rejecting mortal invitations, these are already very merciful words.

"I, I, I..." Pochi-chan, who tried hard to make her presence felt, finally caught Hongxia's attention.

Hongxia looked at the child, and an angelic expression appeared on her face again.

"Pochi-chan, what do you want to say?"

No matter how great Ito-san is, she is still a paid foreign aid, and they still have to rely on Pochi-chan to accompany them through their time in the rock band.

When I think about it carefully, I still feel a little sad.

"I will work hard to the point where I can communicate normally with people, please don't kick me out of the band!"

After enduring the entire night, Goto Ichiri finally spoke a complete long sentence. He put his hands on Hongxia's shoulders and spoke loudly with the courage to die.

"Of course not, you're our only guitarist!"

"Huh? Huh!"

On the other side, Ito Rin, who didn't want to argue with Liang anymore, had already changed back into the spring school uniform of Shimokitazawa High School, and the things hanging on her body had been put away.

Wearing the black school uniform, his bad temperament disappeared and instead he showed a sunny image.

After thinking that she had solved the mess, Ito Rin expressed her understanding and respect for the game of house that her cousin wanted to play, and disappeared into the room after leaving a word.

"Next time if you need anything, please come to me with money ready."

Chapter 7 Invitation

"Hey?"

A big question mark popped up over Pochi-chan's head, why did the guitarist and lead singer run away, and how did she become the only one?

"I originally wanted to discuss the mistakes in the performance and areas for improvement, but it's so late and it's time for you, Pochi-chan, to go home. Remember to gather here tomorrow!" Hongxia suggested.

The singing discussion she was talking about was the first one the three of them had, and although it wasn't that satisfying, it would always be progress if Pochi-chan could get out of the box before the next singing session.

"That, that?" Goto Ichiri pointed at the closed door.

"Ito-kun? He's Ryo's cousin. He was pulled up on stage after the previous guitarist ran away. But he came late today because of something, so I was able to find a suitable member like Pochi-chan." Hongxia explained.

Pochi-chan looked at the gentle Hongxia-senpai and the autistic Liang-senpai squatting in the corner, and suddenly felt a surge of intimacy.

This is literally her dream band!

I must work hard and strive to take over the position left by senior Ito.

"After paying Ito's salary, we'll have to eat grass again at the end of the month."

After hearing Liang's resentment, Pochi's face changed. Senior must be joking, right?

……

The next day, Shimokitazawa High School.

During lunch break, Hongxia accompanied her friends from school to the cafeteria for lunch.

Liang's personality makes her like to be alone, even Hongxia, who has become her friend, rarely makes an appointment with her, so at times like this, Hongxia is always accompanied by her friends in the class.

"Tell me the truth, how did you get a date with Ito-kun?"

"Hey, I took a lot of photos yesterday. I plan to print them out and put them up in my bedroom. Ito-san looks so handsome when he plays the guitar."

Such a nympho-like statement made Hong Xia roll her eyes.

"He was invited by Yamada-san. I was also shocked when I saw him."

"Ryo Yamada from Class 3? How could such a strange person be related to Ito-san?" a female classmate asked puzzledly.

Not only are they related, but their relationship is closer than you think.

Hong Xia, who was looking for a seat with her lunch in her hand, spotted her target. She left a few words behind and hurriedly ran to the corner, leaving her two friends behind.

"Xiao Li, Chengzi, I have something else to do, you guys go eat first."

The two abandoned people looked at each other, not knowing what she was going to do.

"Is there anyone sitting here?"

Ito Rin, who was eating with one hand, was concentrating on the list of clubs that his teacher gave him yesterday, intending to choose an organization that could achieve results quickly and join.

"not good……"

"Thank you, Ito-san!" Hongxia put down her plate and sat opposite him, her yellow ponytail swinging behind her and her fair face full of smiles.

"Ichichi..."

"What did you have for lunch? It looked delicious."

Ito Rin, who was interrupted again, put down the book in her hand and said, "Eel rice, Ichi..."
