Ito Rin looked at Hongxia in surprise, feeling that her attentiveness was almost as good as her own.

"No wonder the store manager has become so careless. He must have been spoiled by Hong Xia."

"You should use Ryo as an example."

"Dear Liang-chan, someone is unhappy with you."

After using a trick to divert trouble, their war has little to do with Ito Rin, and as long as girls don't focus on makeup, it doesn't take that long to go out.

Ito Rin waited downstairs for a few minutes, and the two girls who had changed their clothes came down, making the dimly lit hall suddenly brighter.

If Yamada Ryo could change her penchant for dark clothing, it should be able to become brighter.

"set off!"

Standing in front of the gate of the B&B, Ito Rin pointed at the dark sky and shouted with great enthusiasm, attracting the attention of passing classmates, but the girls walked past him talking and laughing, treating him as a passerby.

"Hey, you two are taking it too far."

He hurriedly caught up with them until he arrived at the meeting place agreed with Xiao Boqi and the others, and only then was he forgiven for the incident that he had just caused discord between them.

...Who is the boyfriend and girlfriend relationship?

Kyoto at night is very beautiful, and a beauty that is completely different from Tokyo.

The former is like a mature woman who already knows how to express her charm, while the latter is like a young girl in her adolescence. No matter how unrestrained she is, the vitality of youth is invincible.

This can be seen from the lights along the way. In Tokyo, such decorations and women in bathrobes can only be seen during festivals.

"Senior, we are here."

Kita Ikuyo was as energetic as usual, attracting the attention of slowly walking passers-by. The unfamiliar looks forced the children around her to lower their heads.

After the band reunited, they had a lively discussion about the stores they wanted to visit tonight.

The ones who use the Internet more frequently are Yamada Ryo and Kita Ikuyo. Ryo found a nearby record store on the social software. In such an ancient city, there must be some very old records.

Xiao Xiduo found several dessert shops with high reviews among the recommendations and planned to check in nearby.

"Then let's go to the dessert shop." Ito Rin made the decision with a wave of her hand, leaving Kita Ikuyo, who was about to give in, confused.

Little Pochi opened his mouth in surprise. Although he knew that there might be a little secret between his senior and Kita, was it really okay to be so blatant?

Even Ijichi Hongxia frowned, not sure what he was doing.

"Don't look at me with such a scary look. Why don't you just buy dessert and then go to the record store? It won't waste much time."

Ito Rin felt as if someone was looking to get rid of him, and realized how difficult it was to maintain the unity and friendship of the band.

"Huh, you're looking down on my dessert shop!"

"Well, that's not the wrong understanding. Clear the way."

Led by the seemingly angry Kita Ikuyo, they bypassed winding alleys, passed bright streets, and even enjoyed a geisha performance on the roadside.

By the way, compared to them, Ito Rin got two more kicks.

This is blatant sexism!

Also, Kita Ikuyo, please explain to me clearly what exactly that kick of yours meant.

Even in the island country, there is no shortage of so-called Internet celebrity stores, and there is no shortage of bloggers who visit these stores to check in and recommend products.

In fact, at this time, the quality of the food has become secondary. What’s important is to advertise that you have been there.

Xiao Xiduo also has potential in this area. He raised the milk tea in his hand and took a selfie facing the store.

"So can you also modify our pictures when you post them?" Ito Rin complained.

"...Stop talking. I never edit photos."

If Ito Rin hadn't seen her homepage, she would have really believed her lies, and Kita Ikuyo's photo editing is very unique.

She only cultivates herself and Yamada Ryo...

Chapter 30: The Last Day in Kyoto

"Why do I feel like Xiao Xiduo is using the band's number as a place to share things?"

Ito Rin, who was not interested in taking photos, took a few group photos, then stood under the lantern and started browsing her phone, and discovered a problem that was not too big or too small.

When the band was first established, they distributed tasks, but many people didn't take it seriously, except for Kita Ikuyo's publicity minister.

She really created an Instagram account from scratch and named it The End Band. Today, it has attracted quite a few followers.

This is certainly a good thing, but the weird thing is that the content she posted has nothing to do with ending the band!

'I tried new cosmetics today and they worked really well.'

'This ramen is super delicious, you definitely can't miss it when you come to Kyoto.'

The latest message on the account was a photo of them taken two minutes ago, with the caption introducing a local dessert shop.

"Hey, what does that mean?" Hong Xia came closer, took a closer look, and noticed something was wrong.

It seems that apart from the name, the only relationship between this account and them is the photos taken together.

"Haha, listen to my explanation." Being stared at by the two seniors, Xiao Xiduo stuck out his tongue, "Our band's activities are not that frequent yet. If we don't post anything, we will lose fans. So I post more pictures, and the effect of increasing fans is very good."

"Don't do activities just to gain followers." Ijichi Hongxia still resisted inappropriate behavior.

"But if there is more attention, some of them will definitely develop into fans of our band. Only when the base is large can we grow." Kita Ikuyo has a different opinion, and she has a lot of reasons for it.

In this regard, Hongxia is actually in the minority.

More attention may mean more income, and Yamada Ryo will not refuse this temptation, while getting recognition from others on the Internet is what Xiao Boqi pursues.

As for Ito Rin, his principle has always been pragmatic, it is impossible...

"It should be changed." Ito Rin interrupted someone's random thoughts.

"Increasing the number of fans is certainly a good thing, but using this method blindly is not appropriate."

Of course, Ito Rin likes the increased attention, but that doesn't mean he wants to give up on ending the band altogether.

He understood the difficulties and achievements of Xiao Xiduo's work. After all, not everyone has the patience to manage a team account that does not generate any profit. The method he proposed is also very simple.

"When you post pictures in the future, add some of the live shows we will be doing in the future. Didn't the store manager say that he would arrange it for us? Just follow that template. If you don't have enough time, I can help."

After solving the problem of the serious lack of content about the Ending Band in the official account of the Ending Band, Hong Xia gave him a thumbs up, which made Ito Rin a little proud.

"This is all my fault...don't go!"

Honest people who work hard only get indifference from others who walk away. This world is too cruel!

So Ito Rin tried hard to survive.

"Why are you daydreaming? We should go to the record store." Yamada Ryo said lightly as he passed by him, then quickly walked to the front and led the team towards where he wanted to go.

Record stores in Kyoto at night are similar to bookstores in Tokyo, with only a few people moving back and forth beside the tall shelves. Most of them are wearing headphones, so no sound is made.

As members of a rock band, among the five of them, only Kita is a latecomer. He may sing a lot of songs, but he still lacks knowledge of records.

"Ah...I want this."

Ito Rin picked up the latest record and started studying it, Yamada Ryo was whispering about the development history of records to Kita Ikuyo, and Pochi, who had a low sense of presence, was the first to find what he wanted.

Hong Xia leaned over and found a few big words written on the yellowed record.

【Midnight Carnival】

"Little Pochi, do you like this kind of music?"

"I don't like the lyrics, but this is the first thing I came into contact with, and I like their style."

Ito Rin took the record from her hand and found that the content was about praising youthful friendship, and she understood why she hated it.

"Speaking of style, I think Goto-san is really suitable for heavy metal rock."

"What nonsense." Ijichi Hongxia was shocked. She found it hard to imagine a cute kid like little Pochi playing heavy metal.

"…This is the truth. When she put on those glasses, her outfit was obviously very heavy metal. And Pochi-chan, didn't you like death style in the past?"

"It's not a bad thing to have the opportunity to try a few more styles. Xiao Boqi's low-pitched style can also be transformed into a gloomy one, but heavy metal requires guitarists to rock."

Unable to bear the excessive Kita, Yamada Ryo walked back to them to avoid her attentiveness.

"Like Hiroi-san, the level of psychedelic rock is still far from true heavy metal. You can see the extent of her performance."

"You two, don't add settings to others without permission! Little Bo Wizard won't do heavy metal." Hong Xia was still so diligent, trying to stop the two bad guys from spreading wrong ideas.

"Hey, heavy metal must be cool, maybe there will be a lot of fans."

Only when she glanced at little Pochi, who was holding a record and grinning foolishly in the corner, did she feel her own powerlessness.

This kid is so gullible.

"Heavy metal rock music doesn't sing praises to youth. They only shout to break up all couples." After Ito Rin understood Bochi's psychology, the words she said were quite tempting.

Goto Ichiri, who has a history of suffering from youth syndrome, saw his fighting power soar after hearing music that could resist the current situation.

"Okay, it's decided. Heavy Metal Pochi will make his grand debut!"

"But heavy metal requires dancing. Liang-chan, teach her how to do street dance." Ito Rin stabbed two people at once.

The consequence was that Bochi's heavy metal dream was crushed as soon as it emerged, and Yamada Ryo successfully told Ito Rin that she could not dance street dance.

But he is quite skilled at stepping on people.

"Who told me that the bassist's main job is hip-hop dancing?" Ito Rin picked up the record on the shelf angrily, feeling that her pure heart had been deceived.

Yamada Ryo found old records, Bochi discovered his childhood memories, Ito Rin was able to get access to information about the latest records, and others also gained something, so it can be said that the trip was worthwhile.

When Yamada Ryo was shaking his head and trying to put away the fourth record.

"It's over the limit." Ito Rin stopped her with a smile.

Apart from being old, the biggest feature of old records is that they are expensive. After all, in addition to their use value, they also have collection attributes, so the price is naturally raised.

"Nonsense, my mother gave me 50,000 yuan when I left home, how could it be possible that it exceeded the limit now?" She asked unconvinced, but her 50,000 yuan was controlled by Ito Rin.

To be exact, it was 100,000, which was used to pay for the school trip for the two of them, but the money was all with Ito Rin.

It was not difficult to do this. He simply showed his aunt a video of Yamada Ryo eating grass when he had no money, and he easily convinced his aunt who loved her daughter dearly.

"Did you forget the room fee?" Ito Rin reminded someone who was deliberately forgetful.

"Then I won't stay tonight."

"The money is prepaid, so it's useless even if you don't live there."

"Why is it useless? Why not let the people who still live there bear all the expenses?" She showed a triumphant expression and pointed out the key point.

Ito Rin leaned against the shelf, looking helpless.

"Okay, one last word."

"Say it!"

"You already have this record, but you left it in a box at Hongxia's house. Do you still plan to buy it now?"

"..."

"If you want more, I'll pay for it."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"You didn't ask, and didn't I stop you?" Ito Rin looked at her aggrievedly and almost couldn't hide her laughter.

Ito Rin knew more about the furnishings in Yamada Ryo's house than she did. Not only the records, but also the expensive musical instruments that were always ready to be sold.

"Rin-chan."

"exist."

"I'll tell you again, sometimes you're more annoying than me."

"Ah, thanks for the compliment."

Ito Rin finally showed her white teeth proudly, picked up the selected records and went to the front desk to pay.

After leaving the store, time had slowly moved towards twelve o'clock. There were not many pedestrians on the street. Even the owner of the record store behind them was busy closing after they came out.

The only thing on the street that still had its lights on was a 24-hour convenience store. The band members split into two teams and left in the direction of their respective schools.
