Why play in a band if you don't form one for life?

"Are you the only one here?" She was a little curious. When they arrived a few days ago, there were already a lot of people waiting.

"After all, we have a live show today." Nana was bringing the dishes to the table, "We all need to rest well. We stayed up too late last night."

"That's right." Shizi recalled the Christmas party last night.

I ate a lot of snacks, drank a lot of drinks, and sang a lot of songs.

"Then you should also have a good rest. Not to mention today, you and I will also be the main force tomorrow." Shizi reminded.

"I'll go to bed early." Nana said, as if she had thought of something else, "But it should be hard to fall asleep. After all, it lasts all day, shining like a burning gem."

"Still so shining?" Shizi suddenly said something that sounded puzzling to Yili.

Nana replied normally: "Yeah."

"It will shine even brighter." Shizi said confidently.

"Then I will be even more unable to sleep." Nana smiled and pushed the breakfast in front of the two of them, "Today's breakfast is customized, please enjoy it."

Shizi took a look and saw that the big meat buns had a shiny oily skin; the fried dough sticks had just the right amount of oil; the soy milk was steaming with some foam floating on top; the tea eggs had been peeled and looked tasty.

Standard Chinese breakfast.

A mile away is a standard Japanese breakfast. Judging from her expression, she seems to like it too.

"You prepared so much? Are you alone?" Shizi asked.

It doesn't look like leftover food. Nana is the only one here. Could it be that she prepared all of this?

"It doesn't matter as long as everyone is satisfied..."

Nana accepted the compliment proudly.

"No, I mean you can actually cook dishes other than banana dishes." Shizi took a sip of soy milk, "It really doesn't taste like banana."

"..."

Nana pulled out her knife: "Let's go on stage."

The giraffe's head pushed through the floor and came out from the hole!

"Audition performance, Banana Revue, starts now—"

"Go back." Shizi hit it back with a hammer like playing whack-a-mole. "I haven't seen you for a few days. How come you become like this?"

Yili didn't understand the situation clearly, so he interrupted the two of them: "Well, well, we can't quarrel..."

"How could it be? How could it be? How could it be?..." Since Yili had spoken, the atmosphere naturally changed and the two of them were busy comforting each other.

"Uh...what's going on?" Arisaki's voice came along with her footsteps.

Shiko turned around and found that not only her, but Kasumi was also following, but there was no sound of Kasumi's footsteps at all.

Kasumi had a downcast expression. She glanced at the gap on the ground and said nothing, just following Arisaki.

Kasumi has never appeared in public like this before.

"Kasumi-chan..." Although Ichiri had never dared to approach her because of her overly masculine aura, he became even more worried when he saw her like this.

Shizi dropped the hammer and walked over.

Yousaki glanced at her and said, "You should know what she's been doing recently, right?"

Shizi nodded heavily.

Arisaki just shook his head.

Shizi was speechless.

Nana silently brought breakfast: "Eat something first, you will feel better."

"Yeah." Kasumi took it and slowly started eating.

"Do you want me to kill your ability?" Nana asked, "At least you can sleep peacefully for another day."

Kasumi shook her head without hesitation: "No, I still have one day's chance."

"Is that so?" Nana's bitter smile contained so much meaning.

Shizi clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, let's pretend we don't know and have fun."

"Eh? Is this okay?" Ichiri looked at Kasumi's face.

However, Kasumi looked up, her expression had basically returned to normal: "No, this is best."

"Well," Arisaki deadpanned, "this is for the best."

As he was speaking, someone else arrived.

"Happy birthday!" Kasumi waved over there, without any trace of the sadness from before.

While they were having breakfast, others arrived one after another.

"My greatest song is finished!" CHU? announced impatiently as soon as he came in, "Perfect, Excellent!"

"Unstoppable!" Shizi helped her say the next words with a cheering gesture.

CHU? waved his hand, still smiling: "It's up to you."

She looked at PAREO who came with her: "There is no time to rehearse here, but after you go back, you must practice it until you can play it fluently! I won't release it easily - it must be released at the most appropriate time, with the most publicity, and in the biggest occasion!"

"Yes! Lord CHU?!" The joy on PAREO's face was no less than that of CHU?.

"Can't we listen to it first?" Kasumi said a little depressed, "And happy birthday."

"Happy Birthday. Can we talk about the other two things separately?" CHU? sat down, and PAREO promptly placed a breakfast in front of her that was obviously made of beef jerky.

CHU? couldn't wait to take a bite of beef jerky: "Well... I can listen to your words in advance when the time comes..."

"Great!" The bread crumbs in Kasumi's mouth sprayed onto Arisaki's face, and she wiped them off nonchalantly.

Yukina was obviously curious as well, but she held back.

"Is everyone here?" She looked around. "Then let's get started. Exchange gifts."

"Sorry for the long wait!" Shizi slid off the chair, dodged behind the back of the chair, and took out the storage jade slip, "Then I'll start first."

Unlike Valentine's Day chocolates, this time the birthday gifts are prepared by everyone for everyone.

Shizi thought for a long time and, in order to show equality, made the same series of peripherals for everyone -

Colored paper, Polaroid cameras, acrylics, standees, bajis, laser tickets, key chains, coasters, bookmarks, except for the figures that were too complicated, all others were neatly arranged on a special round display table!

Seeing the surprised looks of others, Shizi shook her long hair, feeling very satisfied.

The gifts others gave her were just as good.

Chapter 63 Birthday Live

Ichiri gave her a piece of music that she had tried to write; Kita gave her a brooch that she had carved herself; Hongxia gave her a crystal-like artwork made of solidified starlight; and Ryo gave her a bass, which Nana had said was taken out of a pile of musical instruments that had been hidden away as relics in her real home by Nana out of an apologetic mood.

The gift from Tomoki was a few CDs containing all of Roselia's original songs; the gift from Lisa was a cosmetics set that she got from Nana in exchange for a box of cookies; the gift from Ako was a set of incredibly cool flying swords that she made herself; the gift from Rinko was a T-shirt that could be used as a stage uniform or for daily wear; and the gift from Sayo was a keyboard care tool that she selected.

"You really can't use it now, but if you lose your ability after returning to reality, you will need it soon, right?" Saya said.

By the way, I got this set of tools from Nana in exchange for a box of cookies I baked myself.

What CHU? gave was the same thing as what Youkina gave, which was a few CDs with all the original songs of RAS recorded on them; what PAREO gave was a set of peripheral products from Paspale that were extremely difficult to buy on the market, which were also obtained by Nana from her own "relics" in reality; what LOCK gave was a handicraft he made himself; what MASKING gave was a golden arrow, and Shizi tried it but failed to awaken the Stand; LAYER directly transferred the thousand-year luck in his body to her.

"It will be more useful to you," she said.

Shi Zi had no choice but to accept it.

Kasumi gave a small glass bottle that seemed to contain the starry sky. If you put your ear close to it, you could hear the whispers of the starry sky; Saaya gave a lifetime 7% discount card for Yamabuki Bakery; Satomi gave a chocolate snail pillow; and Huihui - she gave herself as a gift, or to be more precise, a living rabbit, and she gave the same to everyone. Fortunately, Saaya stopped her and urgently replaced them all with "Come to my house anytime to touch the rabbit coupons" (not photocopiable).

Arisaki gave me a small box the size of a palm.

"Oh - it's a wedding ring!" Shizi rubbed his hands excitedly, "Could it be a proposal? Let me see -"

As soon as the box was opened, a new sprout quickly grew out and soon turned into a lush plant.

"That's a proposal." Yusaki explained indifferently, "This is a portable biological air purifier I invented. It will grow automatically when it is turned on, and when it is turned off-"

She pressed the lid of the box, and the plant immediately shrank back into the soil.

"This is the variety I improved. The efficiency of such a small plant will not be worse than those medicines on the market." Yousaki felt proud, but also a little uneasy. "I wonder if it will still be effective when I return to reality..."

"It's okay," Shizi comforted, "If it's useless, just use it as a ring box."

"Please don't be so..."

Hikaru gave a dagger exactly the same as her own; Mahiru gave a handmade heater; Nana gave a set of costumes; Junna gave a feather arrow engraved with a famous quote; Maya gave something similar to Shiko, a set of peripherals with Shiko printed on them; Crow gave a set of rings that had important significance for the upcoming performance of "The Faraway Golden Town", and these rings had never appeared in the original manga and were the original creation of the Jiujiu Group; Futaba gave a folding fan, which matched the kimono given by Kaori - they were the only ones who showed their affection even by giving gifts.

Hualian sent only one message:

Shengxiang Festival, Shengxiang Auditorium, March 3rd, we will reserve the best seat for you.

"I would have gone to see it even if you didn't tell me." Shizi said helplessly, "When the band finishes and goes to the Budokan, I'll reserve the best seat for you so you can see me clearly."

"Hey~ Doesn't this mean that I didn't give you anything?" Hua Lian said, and smiled at Shi Zi.

In the end, only Hina hadn't given Shizi a gift yet.

The gifts from other people were also exchanged.

"Hina, you..." Saya looked at Hina suspiciously.

Everyone saw that Hinai had nothing in her hands.

Shizi suddenly had a strange premonition.

Hina looked at Shizi and smiled mysteriously.

"I'm sorry, sister," she said.

"I'm sorry, little Pareo," she said.

"The gift I gave to Xiao Shizi is a bit special and doesn't quite fit the identity of an idol—"

Shizi saw that Hina's face quickly enlarged in front of him——

Sayo froze in place.

PAREO's hair color changes wildly, as chaotic as her brain.

"Eh." The things that Kita was holding fell down.

I turned my eyes away.

Backstage.

"Are you all ready?" Hong Xia was encouraging everyone, "This time the stage is exactly the same as the Budokan, it's completely different from the previous ones..."

Kita wasn't listening. She just kept staring at Shiko.

Shizi huddled in the corner, not daring to say anything.

However, Kita finally gave up and sighed, "As long as you know the answer."

She turned around and looked at Yili, Hongxia, and Liang.

Hong Xia also finished speaking and waited for her, the lead singer, to say something.

Kita thought for a long time. Normally he couldn't stop talking, but now he couldn't think of any words.

"Everyone," she said finally, "let's form a circle first."

Five people gathered together and put their five palms together.

"In this last live in this world, let's become stars together!"

"oh--!"

On the stage, all the lights have not been turned on yet.

All those who had not yet stepped onto the stage sat in the audience, waiting quietly.

On the dark stage, those with the sharpest eyes seemed to see a few dark shadows.

Before I could react, the sound of the guitar started!

Following the order of the musical instruments, lights immediately came on, covering the five people on the stage!

In this most important live, the first song is naturally their origin——

"Suddenly it rained and it started to rain. I was fed up with the fact that I didn't bring an umbrella."
