Then, without waiting for the complex emotions of surprise, excitement, longing and excitement to subside, she quickly immersed herself in the lyrics from the initial melody, because... she felt that the lyrics seemed to have a deeper meaning, as if they were written for her!

"In fact, I still remember my encounter with you..."

"Look at the future in my pocket, you will definitely laugh out loud... The magic that can wipe away the pain for you is the magic I possess..."

“When that indelible pain hits you one day, try to call it out!”

"I hope that the future you in my pocket will always have a happy smile on your face..."

In fact, Yanami Anna also knew that this song by Kitagawa Yu was so highly completed that it definitely could not have been written specifically for her. After all, they had only known each other for less than a week.

However, listening to Kitagawa Yu's lazy and gentle singing that was like a word of sympathy, she couldn't help but think too much, and the scene of Kitagawa Yu taking out chocolates from his pocket and taking out various delicacies he made to heal her would flash through her mind unconsciously.

The world seemed to have come to a standstill at this moment, and everything around seemed to fade away in an instant. Only Kitagawa You's smiling face, as dazzling as the morning light, was deeply imprinted in her heart.

"Ah! My little brother is so handsome!"

“Although the style is different, why does it feel better than the songs of SICK HACK?”

"I have never heard of the name Baisha before, and I just searched it on YouTube and Spotify. Although I found a personal homepage with the same name, they have never uploaded any works..."

Until Kitagawa Yu finished singing, the applause and screams from the surrounding mixed with noisy discussions formed a roar even louder than before.

Yana saw that Anna had just woken up from the strange feeling that the world was at a standstill, and her first reaction was to hurriedly lower her head, fearing that her little thoughts would be discovered by Kitagawa Yu and the others around her.

However, as she glanced around and saw the excitement on everyone's faces, she couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in her heart.

It’s as if... Kitagawa Yu, who is shining on the stage... is her childhood sweetheart.

"It would be great if... Yuma was my childhood sweetheart..."

Yana saw that Kyouna couldn't help but have this idea pop up in her head, which scared herself.

Also, because she was looking down and thinking about something else, she did not see that when Kitagawa Yu returned the guitar to Shimizu Elisa, Shimizu Elisa, who was also infected by the atmosphere and conquered by Kitagawa Yu's singing, showed her boldness and enthusiasm as a white girl. She hugged Kitagawa Yu excitedly and kissed him on the face, which caused the audience to howl and scream again.

otherwise......

"Ahem, you guessed it right. Our Baisha band is indeed a newly formed band. However, our band's first single is already in production and will be uploaded and released soon. So friends who are interested can pay attention to our YouTube and Spotify homepage..."

As the saying goes, as long as you are not embarrassed... then you won't feel embarrassed.

Kitagawa Yu first quickly glanced at Yanami Anna who was still looking down and wondering what she was thinking, then he calmly and seriously advertised his band, then waved his hand and jumped off the stage handsomely, and under the gaze of everyone, he returned to Yanami Anna and touched her head with a smile.

"Hey, what are you doing? Isn't my singing good?"

"what--"

Yana, who was originally daydreaming, saw Xingna and was unexpectedly startled by his voice.

But when Yana came to her senses, the first thought that popped into Kyouka's mind was not anger or dissatisfaction, but...

"Is this the third time Yuu has touched my head?"

"He doesn't really like touching girls' heads, does he?"

"But in all the days we've known each other, I haven't seen him touch Himemiya-san or any other girl's head?"

"Then he touched me..."

Seeing that Xingcai didn't dare to continue her wild thoughts, Yana looked around and didn't dare to look at Kitagawa Yu at all.

As she thought of this, her cheeks, which had finally cooled down, unconsciously turned red again and became hot again.

“Hey…I’m searching your YouTube and Spotify profile!”

Yana saw a light bulb go off in Kyouna's head and she came up with this 'very reasonable' excuse.

“So that’s how it is~!”

Beichuan You looked at her shy look which was still clearly visible even in the dim light, and a smile flashed across his eyes involuntarily, but he did not expose her.

"Then let's continue watching the show~"

Kitagawa Yu said this and turned around to look towards the stage again, while deliberately keeping a little distance from Yanami Anna.

Then... maybe it was because they were too close to the stage and the surroundings were too crowded, Yana saw that Kyona was unconsciously moving closer to him, and finally... he didn't know when, but it almost became the posture of a boy protecting a girl in his arms on a crowded train.

Chapter 82 Performance Invitation

"Ah, ah...it's getting late, why don't we go home early?"

Noticing that the atmosphere seemed to be getting more and more 'wrong', Yanamikan Kyocai lowered her head guiltily and spoke in a low voice with a blushing face.

Even though Kitagawa Yu was very 'gentlemanly' and kept a fist's distance from her, and didn't really hold her in his arms, she had never been in such close contact with a boy, not even Hakamada Kusuke, and she couldn't help but feel her heart fluttering. Her long eyelashes trembled and her breathing trembled slightly.

"Well...it's almost ten o'clock. It's time to go back!"

Kitagawa Yu first took out his mobile phone to check the time, then smiled and said as if nothing had happened.

This made Yana unable to help but feel relieved when she saw Xingcai. After all...what if there was no train if she went back any later?

If that time really comes, she will have to choose between expensive taxi fares and hotel accommodation!

She definitely wouldn't choose the first one because she has no money, and as for the second one... she couldn't choose it either!

Even if she believed it, even if they really stayed in a hotel together, Kitagawa You would not do anything to her, but she already had a childhood sweetheart after all!

Going out to stay in a hotel alone with another boy... this must be considered cheating, right?

and......

"Even if they are normal couples, they wouldn't go to a hotel so quickly, right?"

Yana saw that Xingna was stealing a glance at Kitagawa Yu who was holding her hand and protecting her as she squeezed out, and for some reason, this idea suddenly popped up in her head.

As for the second time being held hand by Kitagawa Yu...it's already the second time anyway, right?

Just like the first time, as soon as they left the crowded crowd, Kitagawa You took the initiative to let go of her hand.

But what was different from last time was that just as they were about to leave the Live House, a man dressed in punk style, with a ponytail, earrings and lip studs, smoky makeup, and who looked to be about thirty years old... ran over and stopped them.

Yes, this is a man.

Moreover, Kitagawa You was only slightly stunned before he recognized his identity and then roughly guessed his intentions.

"Hello, I'm Ginjiro Yoshida, the manager of this Live House, and this is my business card—"

Yoshida Ginjiro handed over his business card, then looked at Kitagawa Yu and continued, "Your performance just now was very exciting, and Hiroi and Shima also highly recommended you to me, so I would like to ask if you and your band are interested in performing at my Live House?"

"show?"

Originally frightened by Yoshida Ginjiro's somewhat 'weird' appearance, Yana, who subconsciously hid behind Kitagawa Yuu, immediately covered her mouth in surprise.

Then he quickly looked up at Kitagawa Yu, and when he saw that Kitagawa Yu still had a calm and composed expression on his face, he couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart.

"Of course," Kitagawa Yu first looked at the business card, then pretended to think about it and said.

"But even if it's a compilation performance, we still have to perform at least three to five songs, right? Although I've written quite a few songs, since the band has just been formed, they haven't been produced yet. So to reach the minimum performance standard of three songs, it should take at least two to three weeks."

"Dai Tape, when you are ready, just call me anytime! Whether it's three songs or five songs, I can arrange it for you!" Yoshida Ginjiro had heard his introduction before, so he had already thought of this.

"To be honest, I'm very optimistic about your potential, so in terms of performance fees, I plan to split the fees between your band and SICK HACK, 80:20, you get 80% of the tickets sold, and Live House gets 20%."

"You have to know that the ticket sales ratio between live houses and new bands is 50-50."

"Also, you can lower the ticket quota for the first three games a little bit, as long as it reaches 15. What do you think?"

"No problem!" After quickly thinking about it in his mind, Beichuan You agreed with a smile.

After all, in "Lonely Rock", when Pochi and the others performed at Fanxing for the first time, each of them had to sell five tickets, which added up to 20 tickets.

Shinjuku LOFT is several times larger than Fanxing and the tickets are more expensive, but Yoshida Ginjiro only set a target of 15 tickets for them, which was really considerate of them.

Of course, more important than the 15-ticket target is the 8:2 profit sharing ratio.

This is the proportion that only the "top-tier" underground independent bands like "Sick Hacker" can get. The mainstream popular bands above them usually only pay extra money to perform at festivals and celebrations in order to increase the popularity and fame of the Live House.

"Then it's settled!"

After confirming that the deal was reached, the two directly exchanged contact information and added each other as Line friends.

Then, Yoshida Ginjiro seemed to remember something, slapped his head, took out a sticky note from his pocket and handed it to him.

"This is the contact information left by Hiroi Kikuri and the others. The three of them are going out to drink and celebrate, so they're leaving first."

"You can add them as your Line friends if you like."

"But my personal suggestion is that if you don't want to be entangled by a drunkard and asked to borrow money at every turn, just add Iwashita Shima and Shimizu Elisa~"

"Um...thank you for your advice!" Beichuan You thanked him indifferently and accepted the sticky note.

Although Pathological Hackers is the most popular band in the underground music circle, it would be helpful for their own development if they could borrow their popularity in the early stage, but he really doesn't want to deal with these three guys!

Among them, there is no need to mention the drunkard Hiroi Kikuri.

As a drummer, Shima Iwashita has a very cold personality and is not easy to get along with.

As for the guitarist Shimizu Elisa...you can tell what kind of girl she is when you see her forcefully kissing him on the stage just now.

He doesn't want Yana to misunderstand Kyouna, okay!

However, the contact information has been given. If he still wants to continue performing in this Shinjuku LOFT, he will definitely have to deal with Hiroi Kikuri and the other two who are the pillars of this live house, so he can only add them reluctantly.

"If there is nothing else, then we will take our leave now!"

After coming out onto the street again with Yanami Anna, Kitagawa Yuu temporarily put the matter aside.

The slightly cool night breeze blew towards me, and I felt a lot refreshed.

On the contrary, Anami Yanami next to him became even more excited after leaving the Live House.

because......

"Hey, You, are we really going to perform here in a few weeks? I mean, isn't this a little too fast? Can I really learn the piano or guitar parts of three songs in such a short time?"

Chapter 83 Friendship or Dream

"this......"

Beichuan You's breathing and footsteps paused at the same time. He was stunned for a moment. Then a look of embarrassment flashed across his face and he felt something was wrong.

Going to a Live House performance with Yanami Kyouna?

He never thought about this at all!

Not to mention the piano, which is more difficult and professional. Even if it looks the simplest and can be deliberately simplified to the simplest drumming in a live performance, if you are not a genius like Tsukimi Eiko from a music show, you still have to study hard for several weeks to reach the level of performing on stage!

In fact, the light music club is really just a place for "playing house" in his mind, but... Yanami seems to have misunderstood something?

"Ah -"

Beichuan You's mind raced, and he finally chose to "tell the truth."

"You don't have to worry about that. I've already found a lead singer and guitarist, and I'll be in charge of playing the piano, bass, and drums on the arrangement keyboard, so two people are enough for the performance~"

"Eh? Is this okay..."

Yana saw Kyouna's surprised expression at first.

Then, the smart girl seemed to understand the hidden meaning in Kitagawa You's relaxed and tactful tone, and the light of excitement and expectation in her eyes was extinguished silently like a match in the cold winter.

"That's right. How can an ordinary girl like me who can't play any instrument be qualified to form a band and perform with a genius like Yuu... The so-called light music club was formed by Kusuke to pick up girls. Yuu was just dragged in for the sake of his friends..."

Yana saw that Kyouka couldn't help but lower her head and muttered to herself in her heart.

Then she thought of the fact that Hakamada Kusuke, her childhood sweetheart who had been "together" with her for twelve years, didn't like her. After Himemiya Karen and Shirakawa Tsukiai appeared, he immediately left her to chase after Himemiya Karen and Shirakawa Tsukiai.

This made her, who had always been cheerful and lively and had never felt inferior, suddenly feel a little inferior.

"Maybe... I'm not pretty at all... I'm not cute at all... And my usual outfits might be just as tacky as Yuu said..."

Yana saw that the more Xingcai thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. The place where she made the mistake ached slightly, and she suddenly felt difficulty breathing.

But at this moment, Beichuan You beside her suddenly said: "Of course, if Xingcai can master the drums, bass, or guitar before then, she can join the band and perform together~"

"What!?"

Yana saw Xingcai suddenly raise her head and look at Kitagawa Yu blankly, and the light in her eyes rekindled.

"What's wrong? Are you unwilling? There is a performance fee. One ticket is 2600 yen. I can give you 200 yen when the time comes?"

"..."

When Yana saw that Xingna had come to her senses, she rolled her eyes at Kitagawa Yu angrily.
