"Um, Jiang Zao..." Raphael couldn't help but wonder, "The ingredients on the table are so expensive. Are you actually very rich?"

"Huh?" Jiang Zao was stunned for a moment. It seemed that Raphael, as the richest of the four people who came down to earth, recognized that the beef he bought was Wagyu.

Thinking there was no need to hide it from them, Jiang Zao nodded: "I guess so. I still have more than 1.8 million in my bank card now."

After he completed Houtou Ichiri's mission, one million was automatically transferred into his bank card. If it weren't for the text message reminder, Jiang Zao would not have known that he had gained another huge sum of money. This one million was obviously given to him by his boss, and it was not even counted as the mission reward. He was indeed a god who regarded money as dirt.

"Puff!" Gabriel almost spit the Coke in his mouth onto the table: "One million and eight hundred thousand?!"

Vinate and Satania were shocked by the seven-digit amount. Their chopsticks were suspended in mid-air. Although Raphael was also surprised, he was not as frightened as them. He put down his chopsticks and patted his chest to calm his inner surprise.

"Hey, Jiang Zao..." Gabriel thought of the delicious food every time he came to his house for a meal, and his face turned pale. He asked in disbelief: "Even the ingredients for my lunch box are not..."

"Yeah." Jiang Zao did not deny Gabriel's guess. Money is meant to be spent. Besides, he has no other expenses except for food. Why not eat better? "I've spent more than 100,000 yuan on food during this period."

"Pah!" Gabriel's chopsticks fell to the ground, and a sound like a mechanical failure came out from her wide-open cherry mouth. She had actually been eating such expensive ingredients all this time! ?

"Damn it!" Gabriel cried bitterly, pounding the ground with her hands weakly: "I actually... I actually ate up so much money that could have been used for krypton gold!"

The first thing that comes to mind is actually spending money, this hopeless fallen angel.

The other four people complained in their hearts at the same time.

"What are you thinking about? Even if I replace the high-end ingredients with ordinary ones, I won't give you the money to buy krypton gold." Jiang Zao didn't want to step on the accelerator again for Gabriel who was already falling.

"That's true." Hearing this, Gabriel came to his senses. He picked up the chopsticks as if to vent his anger and continued to attack the beef on the table.

"Ah! Gabriel, please leave some for me!" Satania was a fool after all. She cared more about the delicious beef on the table that was constantly decreasing than the fact that Jiang Zao was a rich man.

"There's still some uncut food in the kitchen. Eat as much as you can. This is your first time at my house, so how can I let you go back hungry? Vinate and Raphael, don't be polite, just eat."

When Gabriel heard this, he waved the chopsticks faster. Satania was not to be outdone. The chopsticks she waved left afterimages in the air. The two looked at each other, with a strong smell of gunpowder in their eyes.

"You can actually keep up with my speed, not bad."

"Hehe, you are worthy of being my rival. You are not ordinary either."

The two people who had inexplicably started a confrontation ended up eating themselves into big round bellies, burping and sitting in chairs, unable to move.

"Hmm... I feel like the food will come out if I move." Gabriel covered her mouth, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Who told you to force yourself to eat even though you can't eat anymore?" Vinate rolled her eyes at her.

"Gabriel and Satania are so adorable like this." Raphael took out his cell phone and kept taking pictures of the two defenseless people. It turned out that it was the right decision to follow them, as he was able to get such precious photos.

"Raphael, you have to pay for taking photos like this." Gabriel protested against Raphael's behavior of taking photos like a fanatical reporter.

"So how much does it cost to take a photo?" Raphael took out his wallet from his pocket.

"Hmm..." As the top graduate of Angel School, the price cannot be too cheap. Considering Raphael's sincerity, Gabriel thought for a moment and gave an answer: "900 yuan per ticket."

"What a pity! I don't have that much money right now. Let's forget it." Raphael pretended to be regretful and put away his phone and wallet.

"Haven't you already taken so many photos?"

"But I took this photo before you told me the price, Gabriel."

"That counts!"

"Oops, I accidentally deleted all the photos." Raphael knocked his head, stuck out his tongue, and pretended to be clumsy.

Gabriel didn't believe that Raphael was really that stupid: "I don't believe it. Let me check your phone."

"Then, Gabriel, come over and check it yourself." Raphael stood there with a smile, shaking his cell phone gently at Gabriel who had lost her ability to move.

"Tsk, forget it this time. If I find out that you've passed the photos out, you'll be dead."

"Satonia, are you okay?" Vinate looked at Satania, who was leaning in the chair and unable to speak, worried that she might get sick.

"Mmmm." Satania covered her mouth and shook her head then nodded, probably to express that although she was uncomfortable, there was no problem.

On the other side, Jiang Zao and Raphael exchanged contact information. Before Raphael put away her phone, she received a message from Jiang Zao.

"Please send me a copy of the photo you just took."

Jiang Zao gave Raphael a thumbs-up gesture, then walked away and took out two digestive tablets from the cupboard and gave them to Gabriel and Satania, who were suffering from bloating in their stomachs.

What an interesting human being. During this meal, Raphael gained a lot of interesting information, such as the fact that Gabriel's lunch boxes have always been made by Jiang Zao and Jiang Zao's indulgent attitude towards Gabriel's various behaviors. Just thinking about it made her mouth curl up.

As an angel who kept in touch with Gabriel after she became friends with the devil Vinate, Raphael cared about her more than Gabriel imagined. However, most of the time, this concern was overshadowed by Raphael's mischievous character.

Gabriel, have you really been tempted by worldly desires after coming to the human world? Raphael looked at Gabriel with deep eyes as she was arguing with Jiang Zao. Now she still thought that Jiang Zao didn't know Gabriel's identity as an angel.

"Come on, Gabriel." After leaving these words in Gabriel's ear, Raphael, Vinate and Satania left.

"What incomprehensible things is she saying?" Gabriel was confused and had no idea what Raphael was doing as a riddle teller. Was this her new way of playing a prank on people?

"what happened?"

"Nothing. What game do we want to play today?" Gabriel no longer thought about why Raphael said such things to her. The most important thing right now was to play games with Jiang Zao.

"Let's play a cooperative game today. It's boring to always play against noobs."

"Ah? I was just letting you do that. As an angel, how could I seriously deal with a mortal like you!" Gabriel would never admit that she was a loser. She thought that Jiang Zao must have been practicing secretly for a long time, so his skills were so good that he could easily see through her attack.

"If you're a rookie, just practice more. The past is the past, and the present is now. If you keep using your identity as an angel as an excuse, why don't you show your wings and fight me?" Jiang Zao stretched out his hands and made them like crab claws, and said to Gabriel earnestly.

This made Gabriel very angry, and she showed off her angel halo and white wings: "This is what you asked for, don't cry when the time comes!"

The dark halo above Gabriel's head didn't have any trace of an angel's sacred aura, which made Jiang Zao almost laugh out loud. He suppressed his smile and took out a mirror and put it in front of Gabriel and asked, "Angel?"

"This... it's just that it's been too long and has become moldy." Gabriel quickly wiped it clean, put the halo that was once again emitting holy light back on his head, and pretended to be calm as he picked up the handle: "Come on, watch me beat you to a pulp this time."

It turns out that the angel halo will also get moldy if it is not cleaned for too long. Jiang Zao suddenly felt that this thing was quite down-to-earth.

Even though she appeared as an angel, Gabriel was still no match for Jiang Zao. Looking at the glaring red word "KO" on the screen, she was filled with rage and jumped directly into Jiang Zao's arms and gave him a righteous punch.

Of course Gabriel did not use the power of an angel, otherwise Jiang Zao would have turned into a pool of meat paste. He had to persuade Gabriel to get off him. This time she finally agreed to change the game to a cooperative type and continued playing.

Chapter 4 Yeah? I have a girlfriend? (K please collect)

"The game has started a new activity. I'm going back to play games first." Just after school, Gabriel sent this text message to Jiang Zao, found a deserted corner, and used magic to teleport herself back home to play games.

Since he didn't have to go home with her, Jiang Zao was ready to see how the band was progressing: "Pochi-chan, your band hasn't found a lead singer yet?"

“There is no suitable candidate yet.”

"Oh, I heard there's someone who's quite suitable." Seeing that Goto Ichiri hadn't met Ms. Guiqulaixi yet, Jiang Zao decided to help her.

"Really?"

"Yes, it's Kita from the class next door. I heard he's a good singer and he used to be a guitarist in a band. Isn't he a good fit?"

"Indeed, indeed." Goto Ichiri once again realized how reliable her boyfriend was. The problem that had troubled the band for a long time was solved by him.

"It's time to go home from school, let's go find her."

"Uh-huh."

"Excuse me, is Kita from Class 1 here?" Jiang Zao brought Goto Ichiri to the back door of the next classroom and shouted inside, although there was only one person in the classroom at the moment.

"Yes, I'm Kita. What can I do for you two?" A girl with shoulder-length red hair tied into a braid on the left side and yellow-green eyes who looked very sunny and cheerful walked over.

Kita Ikuyo looked at Jiang Zao and Goto Ichiri with curiosity. These two were actually quite famous in the school because of what happened with the gangsters before. She wondered what they wanted from her.

"It's like this, Ichiri's band is looking for a lead singer, and I heard that Kita-san was also a guitarist in the band before, so they want you to join their band."

"About this matter..." Kita Ikuyo was a little embarrassed. The reason why she quit the band was actually related to the guitar: "I can't play the guitar at all."

"Huh?" Goto Ichiri, who was hiding behind Jiang Zao, was stunned. Didn't Jiang Zao say that he could play the guitar?

"For an instrument like the guitar, isn't it just a matter of plucking the strings at the bottom?" Kita Ikuyo took out a guitar from her seat and plucked the strings at the bottom: "I thought the wooden pole on top was just for decoration. It's too difficult for beginners to learn guitar by themselves."

No, no, no, even if you really know how to play the guitar, you can't play it as well as the guitar with a bass.

Jiang Zao knew that the girl had bought a bass by mistake, but he would not say it out loud now. He would occasionally want to see other people's troubled expressions, wondering if they had been led astray after their contact with Raphael.

"In that case, let Yili teach you how to play guitar. She's the guitarist in the band."

"Really?" Kita Ikuyo looked at Goto Ichiri who was hiding behind Jiang Zao with full anticipation of being able to have a professional teach her guitar.

"But...but, I have to work at a performance space after school..." Goto Ichiri never expected Jiang Zao to push him out, and he timidly wanted to refuse.

As a social terrorist, Kita Ikuyo didn't care about this. She ran to Goto Ichiri and held her hands. "It's okay. I can wait until you finish your part-time job. Is there a recording studio next door that I can use? Please teach me sternly."

“Ahhhhhh…” Goto Ichiri, whose brain had shut down due to the sudden approach of a stranger, dazedly agreed to her request: “Okay, okay, no problem.”

"Really!? Thank you." Kita Ikuyo smiled brightly, and her sunny and cheerful personality made Goto Ichiri feel that she was very dazzling.

The group of three left the school and headed for STARRY. Jiang Zao also sent a message to Hong Xia saying that he and Goto Ichiri would bring someone suitable to be the lead singer of the band, and asked them to prepare.

The cheerful Kita Ikuyo looked a little uneasy at the moment: "It turns out that Goto-san works part-time in Shimokitazawa..."

"Yes, has Kita-san been here?"

"My previous band was also from Shimokitazawa, and the seniors in the band all lived nearby." Thinking that she might meet each other, Kita Ikuyo's expression became even more uneasy.

Jiang Zao followed silently, his heart already bursting with laughter. Girl, don’t you know that the band you two are talking about is actually the same?

In order to prevent Goto Ichiri from revealing the name of the part-time job store and the names of Hongxia and Liang too early, causing Kita Ikuyo to run away halfway, Jiang Zao had already sent a text message to Hongxia to come and pick them up from STARRY.

"We'll be there soon. The place where I work part-time is called STARRY. Hongxia and Liang should have finished school a long time ago and are waiting at the store."

"Eh?" Kita Ikuyo stopped dead in her tracks upon hearing the familiar name. She then turned around and held up Goto Ichiri's chubby face: "Sorry, I have to go back. Although I can't explain the reason, I really can't go there. Don't tell anyone in the band that I was here."

Jiang Zao was trying so hard to hold back his laughter that his stomach ached. When he saw Hong Xia running towards him waving her little hands not far away, he was even more eager to hold back his tears.

"Hey! Pochi-chan, I'm here to pick you up."

Hongxia ran to the three of them and met Kita Ikuyo, who turned around tremblingly after hearing her voice and became stiff. Her eyes widened immediately: "The guitarist who ran away!!!"

Kita Ikuyo's face was full of panic. She held Goto Ichiri's cheeks with both hands and suddenly exerted force, squeezing her into a funny expression. Jiang Zao laughed so hard in her heart that she rolled on the ground. It was such a joyful scene.

Kita Ikuyo, who wanted to escape, was eventually brought back to STARRY by Ryo and Nijika, and explained to them the reason why she suddenly quit that day.

"I suddenly lost contact with you, and I thought you passed away. I've been burning incense for you every day." Liang said seriously.

Hong Xia complained beside him: "Don't just talk about someone being dead casually."

"I'm willing to do anything as long as you can forgive me!" Kita Ikuyo said while kneeling on the ground with tears in her eyes.

"Then come over here and change your clothes." Hongxia's sister, the manager of STARRY, Ijichi Hoshika, who has long golden hair that reaches her hips and always has a calm expression on her face, waved to Kita Ikuyo.

"Change clothes?" Although Kita Ikuyo was a little confused, she still did it.

"Oh, she's very capable for a temporary worker." Ijichi Hoshika drank a box of strawberry milk while praising Kita Ikuyo who was wearing a maid outfit and cleaning diligently.

"Why not let Kita-san be in charge of ticket sales? Usually it's Ryo who's in charge, but she always has a dead look on her face, which is not good." Hong Xia made the decision by clapping her hands.

I actually gave her a job that I haven't done before! Goto Ichiri was shocked. Is this the ability of a social expert? In order to redeem her clumsy image when she was working at STARRY, she decided to take the initiative to teach Kita Ikuyo how to make drinks.

Goto Ichiri stood in front of the coffee machine with a paper cup in hand, pressing the start button with a serious expression, watching the coffee gradually fill the cup. Kita Ikuyo's smiling gaze at the side made her nervous when being stared at, and she didn't even notice the coffee overflowing from the cup onto her hands.

"Wow!" Kita Ikuyo screamed, quickly pulled Goto Ichiri away, and wrapped her burned hand with a handkerchief: "I already know the general process, Goto-san, you should go and rest first."

"I'm sorry, because I wanted to act like a senior so badly..." Goto Ichiri lowered her head in frustration. On the back of her hand, she felt the rough touch of Kita Ikuyo's left fingertips. As someone who had practiced guitar for many years, she naturally knew that this was a phenomenon that would only occur after long-term practice.

After STARRY officially opened, Kita Ikuyo stood at the ticket office and looked at the performing band on the stage, saying with longing: "The band is like my second home."

"Home?" Goto Ichiri, who was responsible for selling tickets with her, was a little puzzled.

"Well, we spend more time together than with family, and we pursue a dream together with our hearts connected. It feels like a relationship that goes beyond friendship and love. It's an incredible relationship."

“I have never joined any clubs, so I have always wanted to experience this feeling.”

Goto Ichiri also agreed with what she described, and she also longed for this feeling.

"But because of this..." Kita Ikuyo changed the subject and said somewhat dejectedly: "I can't join your band. Someone like me who has avoided performances and has no sense of responsibility is not worthy of joining a band."

Goto Ichiri clenched the handkerchief that still held his body temperature in his hand, and while Kita Ikuyo wasn't paying attention, he secretly sent a text message to Jiang Zao.

After closing, Hongxia stopped Jiang Zao who was about to check on Goto Ichiri's burns.

"Um, Jiang Zao, I remember Boqi-chan said you can play the guitar too, would you like to join our band?"

"I'm sorry, I personally have no interest or idea in the band." Jiang Zao carefully applied the ointment on the back of Goto Ichiri's hand and shook his head to reject Hong Xia's request.

"But isn't it because you are interested in guitar that you asked Pochi-chan to teach you?" Hongxia asked without giving up.

"Actually, about this, I was the one who lied to Pochi-chan." Jiang Zao put Goto Ichiri's hand in his palm.

"I was worried that she would develop a resistance to guitar because of that incident and give up playing it, so I lied and said that I was interested in guitar."

"After all, it's her dream to join a band and play on stage. I can't let a bunch of bastards destroy her dream so easily."
