Anime, but you can win a prize by confessing your love

Hong Xia was stunned for a moment, then slowly retreated from the pool to behind Ye Mu, pouting in dissatisfaction.

"You are just like my sister. Really, I am not that fragile."

It turns out that the store manager has been cleaning these days, no wonder the apartment is so messy!

"My sister is not good at housework either, but she always tries to be stubborn and refuses to admit it."

"Haha, isn't this the same as Hong Xia? Birds of a feather flock together. Hong Xia sometimes tries to be strong, too."

After washing the strawberries and watermelons, Ye Mu naturally took the knife handed to him by Hong Xia.

To be honest, it really shows consideration and courtesy to hand over a knife with the tip pointing towards yourself!

She is worthy of being the gentle one who ends the band.

"It's not nice to say bad things about people to their faces, especially to girls, Ye Jun."

Hong Xia patted Ye Mu's shoulder lightly and stuck out her tongue at him, but in the end, she started laughing again.

Chapter 200: Debt Collector?

"Since we're here, I'll tell you about my plans after the holiday."

Although he was eating watermelon, the manager's eyes were fixed on the strawberries in the fruit bowl, as if he wanted to eat them but couldn't bring himself to do so.

Liang also noticed this. She kept taking the strawberries and putting them into her mouth, quietly appreciating Xingge's anxious but helpless expression.

"Uh-huh, manager, would you like to try some strawberries? If you don't, we'll eat them all."

Ye Mu sighed in his heart, but still felt sorry for the arrogant Xing Ge and decided to help her.

"Strawberries? I don't like such childish things. You guys can eat them."

Having said that, Xingge decisively threw away the notebook that was filled with the band's performance schedule, stretched out his hands and grabbed a handful of strawberries.

Does she really like strawberries?

Ye Mu was astonished. Originally, they had only guessed based on the information that the store manager liked to drink strawberry milk, but they didn't expect that the effect of coaxing the store manager would be so good.

In this way, perhaps the house arrest order can be lifted as long as we plead for Hong Xia.

After chewing for a few times, Xingge let out a satisfied sigh. When he looked at Ye Mu again, he felt that he was pleasing to the eye for the first time.

"Manager, so..."

"Just call me Sister Xingge in private. After all, I'm not some black-hearted boss who eats people without leaving any bones."

Xingge waved his hand magnanimously.

It’s over. It seems that capitalists will never realize the fact that they are capitalists.

When Ye Mu was daydreaming with a joking attitude, his foot was kicked.

Turning around, she saw Liang looking at him with dissatisfaction, as if she was very dissatisfied with him for ruining her chance to appreciate the manager's angry expression.

"Okay, Sister Xingge, what's the arrangement for our band?"

"Your abilities are barely above average, but since you are still high school students, the frequency of your live performances..."

Bang bang bang!

There was another noise at the door, but unlike the previous doorbell ring, this time it was a rather rude knock on the door.

what's the situation?

Ye Mu and Liang looked at each other, wondering if the other members of the band had followed them, when the store manager slapped his forehead in pain.

"Shh, keep your voice down, don't talk, wait for her to leave."

she?

Wait for her to leave?

You can hear the difference in personal pronouns in Japanese, but who is she?

Did the Ijichi sisters encounter violent debt collectors?

"Senior, senior, and Hongxia, are you at home? It's me!"

The familiar voice and drunken tone seemed to float in through the crack in the door.

Okay, it’s Big Sister Jiumengzi.

Ye Mu and Hong Xia met eyes, and he saw helplessness in the latter's eyes.

Bang bang bang!

The banging on the door continued.

"Senior, Senior, I'm Hiroi!"

Hong Xia finally couldn't help but stood up:

"Let her in. It won't be long before the neighbors call the police to complain about us."

Ye Mu followed her gaze again and observed the changes in the store manager's expression.

She just sighed, nodded, and started stuffing strawberries into her mouth frantically, as if she was afraid that the drunkard outside would come in and snatch them from her.

You are too petty, manager!

Thump~

As the door was opened, the drunken older sister almost collapsed in, and a strong smell of alcohol immediately drifted along the corridor and into the apartment.

"Hehehe, Hongxia is still kind."

Hiroi Kikuri, who was lying on the ground, wanted to reach out to hook Hongxia's calf, but the latter nimbly stepped back a few steps to avoid it.

"That's so hurtful... Eh? Ye Mu? And that, that... the bassist who ended the band!"

Hiroi Kikuri tilted her head to look at the sofa, and her squinted eyes suddenly widened.

"Good morning, Hiroi-senpai."

"I'm the bassist of the band that finished, Ryo Yamada."

Although Liang has always regarded SICK HACK's lead singer and bassist Hiroi Kikuri as her idol, she is really unwilling to admit that the drunkard lying at the door and wiping the floor with his clothes is the idol himself.

"Oh~ hehehe, I drank too much, I remember everything now!"

Hongxia closed the door, frowned, and helped Hiroi Kikuri to sit down on the sofa.

Oh! There are fruits to eat! My senior sister’s family is so rich!

"Would you like to treat me with some fruit? I'll be more than welcome!"

Hiroi Kikuri's eyes lit up and she took a piece of watermelon from the fruit plate and started eating it.

It's weird, take another look.

Ye Mu looked at the watermelon in Sister Jiumengzi's hand with a strange expression. Could it be that if one eats watermelon with serrated teeth, the marks left behind would also be serrated in shape?

"Hey, stop talking to yourself!"

Xingge was just about to teach the ignorant junior a lesson, but he suddenly withdrew his hand out of guilt because of something he thought of.

"So satisfying, so delicious! Oh, by the way, what was I doing here?"

Hiroi Kikuri ate with relish. After finishing a few slices of watermelon, she wiped her mouth with the back of her hand nonchalantly and scratched her head in confusion.

Hearing this, the Yidichi sisters shuddered and calmly changed the subject.

"Junior, let's recall why we didn't join a band in college."

"Would you like some more strawberries, Hiroi-san?"

has a problem!

Seeing the Ichichi sisters suddenly start to change the subject and laugh, the two of them realized that there must be something hidden.

"Eh? Really? It seems like everyone is so enthusiastic today, hahaha."

Sister Jiumengzi's rosy eyes were sparkling with tears, and her silly look actually seemed somewhat cute.

"Since I want to recall, well, let me think... I was a bassist... Oh! Now I remember what I came here for!"

"I want to take my bass, the one I gave to my senior for safekeeping before I graduated from college."

what?

this matter!

Wasn’t that bass sold by the band themselves?

Compared to Ye Mu, Liang, who often does trivial things, has a much more natural expression, but he still looks at Xingge with questioning eyes.

Done!

It really reminded her of...

Xingge sighed and reached out to adjust her slipping strap.

"Sister, it's not a good idea to keep putting it off. Let's tell Sister Hiroi."

"Ah."

"I'm so sorry, Miss Hiroi! We've sold your bass!"

Sister Jiumengzi's expression was originally one of silly laughter, but after hearing these words, the corners of her mouth turned down at an alarming speed.

She lowered her head dejectedly, with a tearful expression on her face.

"Sister Hiroi...I'm sorry."

"Wine, give me wine."

Hiroi Kikuri screamed, and her emotions only stabilized a little until Ye Mu took out a box of wine from her pocket and asked her to drink a few sips.

"The qin over there is very important to Sister Hiroi."

“Not really, I forgot my bass at the pub a few days ago and some jerk stole it.

So I had to find a replacement.”

"Since you don't have the money to buy a new one, your only hope is this one you left with the store manager when you were in college?"

Ye Mu completed the whole story for her.

"Yes."

What? So that’s how it is!

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Chapter 201: Away performance? Is the alcoholic sister still useful?

In Shimokitazawa, there is a well-known musical instrument store next to a street where the snow has not yet been cleared.

A swaying figure floated on the glass window, and then a group of people pushed the door open and walked out.

The first one was a big sister with a ponytail. Judging from her facial features, she was pretty good-looking, but unfortunately her drunken expression completely destroyed her first impression.

"Hey, Bess, my Bess, thank you, bro!"

Hiroi Kikuri hugged Beth tightly in her arms, revealing her jagged teeth, and turned to smile at Ye Mu.

"Uh, you're welcome...as long as you pay me back on time."

Ye Mu put the bank card into his wallet, adjusted the rectangular guitar bag on his back, and sighed imperceptibly.

Alas, it's time to do tasks and make money.

He lent money to Hiroi Kikuri to buy a bass, and he himself bought a shoulder-mounted keyboard to facilitate the band's street performances.

Hong Xia, on the other hand, had no problem. After hearing Ye Mu's sigh, she glanced in the direction of Hiroi Kikuri and whispered in his ear:

"20 yuan. To be honest, even if you sold Sister Guangjing, you might not be able to raise that much money."

Although she looked like she was whispering, she didn't lower her voice.

"Yeah, yeah, you might as well give me the money."

Ryoya rested his head on Hongxia's shoulder and leaned over.
