Congratulations, Sushi, you have been optimized by me.

"Ah."

Nagasaki Suyo curled up the corner of her mouth into a smile, and she stood up and sat next to Chihiro from opposite her. Then she took out her mobile phone and played the video that she had been reluctant to delete and could not delete again.

The video begins with a classic recording studio, the layout of which is actually not much different from the room where Chihiro has been staying these days.

And the few people who appeared among them were all people she was familiar with.

Although the video is a bit blurry, you can still see the silly girl Nagasaki Suyo who is closest to the camera and making eye contact, as well as Wakaba Mutsu who is standing with Xiaoxiang and Xiaodeng, and the one sitting on the drum set at the end is naturally Ms. Shiina Tatsuki.

"Um...were you so cryptic when you spoke?"

"I asked you to listen to the song, not to pick a fight with me."

"I'm just concerned about Su Shi, that's all."

"......"

Su Shi was slightly stunned when he heard this, but after realizing that he was probably just making fun of him, he couldn't help rolling his eyes.

After a few simple chats at the beginning of the video, the song "Kasuga Shadow" also started to play the prelude with piano as the main melody.

"......"

"Well, how is it?"

The whole song was neither long nor short, but Su Shi felt like she had gone through a long lifetime. Looking at Chihiro who had been silent, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

"It's a very nice song. It's obvious that Xiaoxiang is indeed an excellent composer and arranger.

If my first song after joining the band could be so perfect, and then it suddenly broke up, maybe I would also be obsessed with it like you, right?

Well...I admit that I understand why you insist on it."

"......"

"I've been working so hard for crychic."

'No one asked you to do this.'

This conversation echoed in Nagasaki Sushi's mind again. Although she didn't want to admit it, Chihiro, who was always arguing with her, said this, which was obviously not very supportive or approving. However, this made Sushi feel that she was no longer alone.

"Thank you, Chihiro... Thank you."

"But I don't think this song is rock enough. You see... Xiaoxiang can be said to have weakened the status of other parts in order to highlight the lead singer's voice, and among the instruments, only the keyboard is the most prominent.

Overall, Li Xi's drums and Ruoye Mu's guitar didn't get much play, which is actually not right. I personally believe that a rock band should be a place where everyone can fully release their emotions, and create a wave of emotions in a fierce collision..."

"Chihiro........"

"Oh, sorry, I forgot to mention Bess, but..."

"Just shut up! You tasteless guy!"

Sure enough, it’s too early to thank you.

Chapter 65 Why is this Li Xi still haunting me? (13 more)

"Okay, okay, don't be angry, pat my head~"

"Take your hands off me!"

Su Shi looked at Chihiro Tsuzuki who looked like she was trying to please him as a wayward child, and simply didn't want to pay any attention to her.

She didn't agree with what Chihiro had just said. Even if she thought about it carefully, she would find that what Chihiro said actually made sense.

After all, Xiaoxiang was attracted by Xiaodeng's voice from the very beginning.

"Honestly, Xiaoxiang's arrangements back then were actually quite gentle."

"..."

Tsuzuki Chihiro propped up her chin with one hand, smiled at Su Shi who was still throwing a tantrum and said, "Xiao Xiang's composition and arrangement of this song are actually all intended to highlight Xiao Deng's voice. Whether it is the preparation for the chorus or the subtraction of the vocal part in the chorus, it is actually to make Deng's voice more gentle.

At that time...she should have faced everyone she knew with this kind of mentality, right?"

Although Chihiro Tsuzuki feels that this song "Kasuga Shadow" is more like pop music than rock, it is undeniable that in terms of the musical arrangement, Xiaoxiang enriched the entire song just by using the synthesizer of the electronic keyboard.

Combined with the synthesized ringtone riff of the keyboard in the chorus, it supports Deng's singing in a shining manner, and gives people a deep impression that the beauty of the past was really beautiful and good.

"But it's all over."

Nagasaki Suyo listened to Chihiro's praise of Xiangzi with mixed feelings at first, then looked at the table with a somewhat lonely look, muttering to herself.

"Yeah, it's all over now. But this song means something different to you, so that's why you were so excited that day. Don't you want it to be used as an etude?"

"...If Xiaoxiang hears Harukakage without the piano, she will be sad."

"Sushi." Tsuzuki Chihiro looked at Sushi strangely, which made Sushi feel a little uneasy. "Why do I always feel that you like to assume things that have never happened?"

"Yes, yes?"

"Let's not talk about the fact that Kasuga Shadow is an etude and there's a high probability it won't be performed on stage. Just now, you mentioned the possibility of Xiaoxiang hearing it...

Why would Xiangzi come to your live performance when she has nothing better to do? She doesn't even know the band has reunited. Or do you think I'd be so stupid as to brag about how harmonious my new band is in front of my former teammates who left me so sadly?

Su Shi, you can insult my morals, but you can't insult my IQ. Do you know how sad I was when you just said that?!

It's May, almost summer, and yet I feel cold hands and feet. It's chilling! You don't have even the slightest trust or respect for a professional like me.

You actually treated me like a fool, wuwuwu..."

"..."

Nagasaki Suyo wants to hit someone.

Why did she always have the feeling that she had just been deliberately targeted and ridiculed by this guy, but she couldn't find any strong evidence?

And she couldn't admit that she was offended, otherwise she would really become the "big fool" that Chihiro called her.

But it's true, Chihiro's words suddenly made Su Shi wake up and understand a fact:

She has already started over again, so there is no need to keep those dark scenes that are unlikely to happen and unlikely to reappear in her mind.

This time, no one will leave the LIVE scene crying.

This time, no one will kneel down to anyone, hold the other person's hand and beg the other person not to leave.

Everything will change...

"Ahem, no, I'm already so sad, can't you just be kind and give me a raise?"

"..."

The next day, Wednesday afternoon, May 5th.

The wind band of Tsukinomori Girls' Academy took a break today as usual as they were preparing for an on-campus performance on Friday.

After all, if you intensify your practice right before a performance, it may sometimes have a counterproductive effect.

As a member of the wind band and the bass player who "sawing wood" with a double bass in hand during every performance, Nagasaki Suyo felt that she was a little unlucky today.

Because... apart from club activities and Xiaomu who was absent today because of ballet class, she seemed to have nowhere to go.

She was alone again when she got home. Even if Chihiro was there to quarrel with her, it would at least be lively. But Chihiro would definitely not stay at home because she had to help her with her band project.

"Sushi, do you want to go sing karaoke together?"

"Eh?"

Su Shi was stunned for a moment. Just as he was thinking about whether to keep the appointment, the people in front of him started chatting again.

"We're planning to go out and sing to our heart's content today. Let me tell you, the owner of that shop already knows me..."

"Um, you're not talking about the one next to RiNG, are you?"

"Have you been there too? Let's go~"

"What about you, Sushi? Do you want to come with us?"

"..." Su Shi paused, then smiled awkwardly and declined, "I'm sorry, I have something going on at home today, so I may not be able to go."

Are you kidding...

Although going to that karaoke shop which can be regarded as an ancient battlefield for crychic does not make her feel that there is anything wrong with it, but don't forget that she absolutely cannot interfere with Chihiro's actions now.

If she hung around RiNG, there was a strong possibility that others would notice her abnormality, which would eventually lead to the failure of her and Chihiro's plan.

Of course, she was definitely not afraid of Chihiro's accusations.

What a joke, it's just Chihiro, a mere coach that she hired with her own money. As the financial sponsor, she holds absolute power of speech in this family. How could she be scared by a few warnings from that guy?

She was just doing it for the greater good. This was just a small concession made by a warrior named "Nagasaki Suyo" who had endured humiliation for two weeks and had a great plan in mind for the long-term future.

Only fools would try to compare themselves with others in verbal battles, but people like her only have one goal in mind, which is to bring back the past.

"Um, there's a fierce-looking person at the school gate. He looks like a bad girl."

"Really? Are you trying to stop someone?"

"……Um?!"

Nagasaki Suyo followed the gaze of these people, and then her whole body stiffened instantly.

No, why is Shiina Riki still stalking? Who did he learn this bad habit from?

And now a more serious problem has arisen. Just when Su Shi was about to turn around and go back, Li Xi over there had already discovered her.

"Sushi!"

With Li Xi's loud shout with his arms crossed over his chest, the funny guys around Su Shi were all startled.

"Oh my god, Su Shi, are you in big trouble?"

"Su Shi, run quickly. We'll hold her back for you. We won't be able to hold her back for long, but the three of us... should be able to hold her back for three seconds, right?"

"Three to one, the advantage is hers!"

"I beg you to stop talking..."

Chapter 66 Li Xi: Su Shi is crazy! (1/2)

"Su Shi, where are you going?"

"Ah... I, my stomach feels a little uncomfortable. I'm going to the bathroom first."

Nagasaki Suyo smiled awkwardly, but she had learned her lesson now and knew that she must not act rashly without Chihiro's knowledge.

So... she decided to ask for outside help.

She made an excuse of having a stomachache and ran to the school restroom alone, then without thinking, she called Chihiro Tsuzuki.

"What are you doing? I'm almost at RiNG. Why are you rushing me to work so quickly?"

"what?!"

"No." Tsuzuki Chihiro on the other end of the phone was obviously startled by Su Shi's shout and said angrily, "Su Shi, what's wrong with you? I'm carrying out my mission well, why are you yelling at me?"

"Um...something bad is happening. Lixi is blocking me at the school gate."

Nagasaki Suyo covered her mouth, carefully opened the door a crack, and looked outside.

Sure enough, Li Xi was standing in the corridor at this moment, with no intention of leaving.

"What are you afraid of? I'll just go back now. Aine and the others haven't seen me yet anyway."

Nagasaki Sushi was stunned when she heard this, and asked uncertainly, "You mean... today I'm going to be Sushi... Ugh, what's with the pretense? I'm Sushi!"

Chihiro Tsuzuki was also fooled by Su Shi on the other end of the phone and let out a series of silver bell-like laughter.

But after laughing, she, a good employee who had to work hard after getting paid, couldn't really let Su Shi worry about it, so before Su Shi got anxious, she spoke first:

"I can probably guess why she came to Tsuki no Mori to stop you. She probably wanted to ask you what you're going to do with the band in the future."

"You mean...Tomoe and Lenai?"

According to the current progress, Lenai is naturally missing, and Xiaodeng does not dare to go on stage.

In fact, this situation is a good one for Su Shi.

As long as this continues...

"If Lixi asks you if everyone is not ready yet, that is, if she has any thoughts of backing out, you must tell her that this is not the right idea."
