Although, just tell me if it’s rock and roll enough!

Hai Mingli had just run out of the hotel and his expression had not changed yet. At this moment, he was smiling evilly and there was no sign of sincerity when he apologized to the girl.

When I opened the system, I saw that the page of [Advanced Task] showed that it had been completed. The task reward of [Guess] that was displayed just now was also revealed.

[Task Reward: 9 lottery tickets (can be drawn individually, 10 consecutive draws guarantee one skill at a time)]

[Hey, you actually want ten lottery tickets. How about a ten-draw series?]

[Don't underestimate my intelligence]

tsk...

A lottery ticket appeared in the system backpack. Hai Mingli took a deep breath, ignored the system's ridicule, and chose to draw the lottery.

First shot, blue sky and white clouds.

"It's okay, just one shot at a time."

Second shot, blue sky and white clouds.

"It's okay. The second shot is usually used to test the bottom."

The third shot, blue sky and white clouds.

"..."

The fourth shot...

The fifth shot...

The sixth shot...

……

"..."

Damn lottery system!

He probably had already guessed that, given the nature of some second-hand draws, it would be unlikely for him to get anything good in his first few attempts.

After drawing the last shot expressionlessly, a purple prize appeared. Hai Mingli pouted and clicked on the reward reluctantly.

As expected, when it comes to lottery, it all depends on the last shot.

[Musician detector × 1]

[After using this item, you can view the index of various aspects of a person's music profession, such as stage control ability, etc.]

[This item can only be used once a week]

The skill description was simple, and Hai Mingli naturally knew how to use it. However, when he thought about his current situation, he still didn't know what the use of this ability was.

Maybe when I was still in Second-Hand Rose, this thing could still be of some use, such as helping the band select new members or finding a temporary band teammate. This skill would be completely enough.

But now I am just an ordinary bar owner, and a bar owner who is about to go bankrupt. I can't think of where I can be of use...

Hiss... Hai Mingli sighed. Never mind. It’s better to have something than nothing.

The blue sky and white clouds were too depressing, so Hai Mingli calmed himself down and began to adjust the facilities in the bar.

In order to complete the system task, the bar has been closed for several weeks. There were few customers in the first place. If it doesn't open again, those old customers will probably think that the bar has closed down.

There wasn't enough rice to begin with, and if we didn't add a little more, the bar would really run out of rice.

While debugging the equipment, Hai Mingli was thinking about the music to be played in the bar today in his mind. Even though there might not be many customers coming, he still prepared the music meticulously.

There was no other way. He was so poor that he was the only employee in the entire bar. As the boss, he was now also the lead singer, lighting engineer, bartender, and waiter of the band...

"Tsk... I think there is no one else who can be the boss and work for me except for this stupid guy like me."

While laughing at his own stupid behavior, he was handling various equipment. After more than half an hour, the entire bar was ready and all that was left was for it to open after dark.

hiss……

With a sigh, Hai Mingli stood at the door and began to welcome guests today.

Not long after, a regular customer wandered around the door and just when he thought the bar was closed as usual, he saw Hai Mingli standing at the door.

"Boss Hai, are you open today?"

"Oh, yes, yes," Hai Mingli nodded, "Open today."

Although the bar is not very popular, all customers who have been here know that with the songs of Ershoumeigui and his performance style that is exactly the same as Ershoumeigui, the whole bar is quite attractive.

The old customer continued to ask: "What do you want to sing today?"

"Destiny is still Second-Hand Rose."

Customers came in one after another. After a while, Hai Mingli didn't care whether there would be any customers coming in or not, and greeted the customers in the place first.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the street...

The blue-haired girl was walking on the street. She had just clocked out of get off work and changed out of her work clothes for the JK uniform she wore in high school.

She strolled along the streets of Tokyo. Clearly people were coming and going around her, but there were always many passers-by who suddenly stopped and looked at the elegant and resolute girl, subconsciously wondering whose daughter this was who came out to play.

"The Le City Bar that Shiina Riki mentioned should be on this street..."

The girl looked at the map on her phone and suddenly looked up at her surroundings. After confirming that it was this street, she quickened her pace towards her destination.

Back to a few days ago, Xiangzi was just about to leave the houselive ring.

"What a pity, there is still no explanation for what the uncle asked me to do..."

Li Xi was talking to himself helplessly. Xiangzi was attracted by his attention. He paused and looked back at the girl, questioning:

"My father, is there anything else to do?"

“Ha… this…”

Shiina Riki scratched her head and was just thinking of fooling around, but when she met Shoko's cold, doll-like eyes, she had to speak in frustration.

"Your father gave me a note, saying that he would give it to the owner of a bar, and that he said something like 'the bar owner and I are close friends, and I want to go to him to find a job'."

"And then, did you deliver the note?"

Xiangzi suddenly asked, and Shiina Riki immediately replied: "Of course, of course I delivered the things."

"Has it been delivered to them?" Xiangzi asked.

"..."

The girl was silent.

Recalling what Shiina Riki said at that time, the girl couldn't help but feel a headache. It was obvious that her father had some unfinished business with the bar owner.

But due to her father's current vegetative state, Xiangzi has to come in person to look for the owner of the "Lezhicheng Bar".

Xiangzi was searching along the street, and suddenly she looked up and saw a billboard with the words "City of Joy" hanging high on the wall.

The girl tilted her head. Is this the destination?

She looked down at the door of the bar. The door was open, and the lights from inside the bar occasionally shone outside. Suddenly, a burst of guitar sounds came out, attracting cheers from a group of people.

This is it...

The girl took a deep breath and then walked quickly towards the bar...

……

On the bar stage, Hai Mingli was standing on the stage, doing his forced business today.

"Advise the heavens, the earth, and your confidant, forget the mountains, forget the water, forget the lover."

"Think of heaven and earth, think of heaven and yourself. Advise heaven and earth, advise heaven and yourself."

"Thinking of heaven and earth, looking at the mountains and water, I look at the morning. Persuading heaven and earth, forgetting the mountains and water, I forget my lover."

When he sang to the climax, he threw away his guitar and interacted closely with the audience: "Everyone, after singing a fairy song, I wish you all a good journey on this road of life!"

The audience was aroused and quickly cheered: "If you don't have a ten-year medical history, you won't listen to Second Hand Rose!"

"Have a nice journey! Have a nice journey!"

There were only about twenty people present, but with the accompaniment of Hai Mingli's music, the atmosphere among the audience was extremely enthusiastic, almost to the point of madness.

Seeing this reaction, Hai Mingli couldn't help but touch his forehead to express embarrassment. With this strange appeal, he would be a bard in DND and a rock boy in the cyberpunk world.

If I put it in a Japanese RPG game, I would be the succubus sister who keeps teasing the protagonist...

Just when he was about to continue the next song, a girl walked in. The girl had long blue hair tied into two side ponytails. She looked around and suddenly turned around and saw him on the stage.

As if she had found her target, the girl stopped looking and then sat down at a booth in the rest area nearby.

"……what?"

Hai Mingli, who was standing on the stage, was confused. The accompaniment of the next song had already begun, but he was still holding his guitar, standing there in a daze.

...Toyokawa Shoko is here?

Volume 1 Wow! : Chapter 21 Ms. Xiangzi, you don’t want your father’s debt to go unpaid, do you?

hiss……

The audience clearly sensed something was wrong. They looked at Hai Mingli on the stage and started to make noises: "Boss Hai, what's wrong? The song has already started but he hasn't started singing yet. What's wrong? Have you become the modern Beethoven?"

“Oh…oh…here it comes.”

Hai Mingli quickly adjusted the audio, and as the music sounded again, Hai Mingli plucked the guitar strings and started playing.

"Brother, you play rock music, what's the point of playing rock music~"

……

When seeing Xiangzi, Hai Mingli's first thought was - it's over, this guy knows that he is related to his father's car accident and is here to cause trouble for him.

Then, Hai Mingli’s second thought was – kid, you came just like that, why didn’t you bring anything with you and came with empty hands?

Your dad... No, your uncle is not picky. I just bring whatever local specialties we have.

Sitting in the rest area, Hai Mingli reluctantly made a cup of tea for the girl, but because he was too poor, he just poured himself some boiled water and left it at that.

The girl took the tea and drank it slowly, trying to eliminate her physical fatigue.

Hai Mingli had just finished a performance and was feeling thirsty. As soon as the water cooled down a little, he quickly drank it.

The two drank water in silence, unable to find a topic to start.

Speak, speak quickly! Hai Mingli was in a dilemma. It was not that he had no topic to talk about, but his original identity was the girl's father, and now his identity was the girl's father's best friend. For a moment, he didn't know what generation to use to address the other party.

The girl was drinking tea, and was actually struggling with this question. According to Shiina Riki, her father called the guy in front of him a close friend. But judging by his age, the other person was probably in his early twenties and less than thirty, almost the same age as her.

Should I call the man in front of me brother or uncle? This is a question...

Because of the seniority issue, the two of them drank water and fell into silence at the same time...

Finally, it was Hai Mingli who finished the water first, so he had to ask, "Hello, my name is Hai Mingli. Are you Mr. Toyokawa's daughter, Miss Xiangzi?"

"Well, hello, Mr. Hai."

The girl responded softly, and then continued to drink the water...

"Ms. Toyokawa," Hai Mingli continued with a stiff upper lip, "how did you find me?"

"My father sent you a note through someone else, saying that he wants a job from you. Is that right?"

The girl raised her head, her eyes full of determination, "If my father owes you anything, please list them and I will help my father pay it back."

Confused Hai Mingli: …

This is because he thought his father owed him something...

The note he picked up at the door was still in his trouser pocket. He quickly reached into his pocket and tore the paper into two pieces.

It actually had an impact on Toyokawa Shoko...

I shouldn't write these things...

"No, that's not the case." Hai Mingli waved his hands quickly, as if to drive something away, "What note? That's not the case."

"Really?" The girl's tone was clearly filled with doubt.

"..."

Seeing that this topic could not be continued, Hai Mingli coughed twice and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. Where is your father, Mr. Fengchuan? Is he in good health these days?"

The girl instinctively dodged a little, but she suddenly clenched her fist and said firmly: "I'm very sorry, my father...he was in a car accident..."

"Ah... what a sudden disaster..."
