Chapter 158: Guitar vocalist Aine-chan?

“…Speaking of which, it’s basically the bass.”

Several people looked closely at the 'guitar' in Kita-chan's bag, and then looked at each other.

After a moment of silence, Aine-chan couldn't help but speak first.

She has been studying guitar knowledge every day recently, and now she can easily distinguish between guitar and bass.

"Eh? But, but, there are clearly six strings?" Kita Ikuyo said a little panicked.

"Hmm...some basses have five or six strings."

Sakuragawa Aki touched his chin and said after thinking for a moment.

"Although I don't know much about this, what do you think, Ryo?"

This is completely modesty. Ever since he obtained the "Guitar LV1" skill from Little Mutou, his understanding of guitar has instantly become equal to or even surpassed that of this pink-haired guy who works hard every day.

If hard work and sweat are effective, why would people still cheat? (laughs)

By the way, it seems that Brother Hailing plays the five-string bass.

"Well, it's a multi-string bass."

Yamada Ryo nodded and confirmed.

"……Eh?"

Seeing that her idolized senior and bass master Yamada Ryoya had spoken, the red-haired energetic girl Kita-chan's expression changed from confusion to disbelief, and then to complete despair, and she slowly collapsed to the ground.

Finally, she lay on the floor with a peaceful look on her face, crying silently.

"Woo woo, this is what I bought with two years' worth of New Year's money and pocket money I asked my dad for in advance..."

...Wow, this is so sad.

Sakuragawa Aki sighed softly.

Well, why don't you buy her a drink later...

After a while, Kita-chan, who had suffered a severe blow, finally recovered and stood up shakily.

"Um, sorry, everyone..."

She slowly put the bass back into her bag, pursed her lips, and then said with some sadness.

"Today is everyone's first live performance, right? I'll be cheering you on from the audience. I'm really sorry for lying to you all before..."

"...Akira-kun, Ryo-senpai, Niji-chan-senpai, and Goto-san, I'm really sorry to have caused you so much trouble!"

Kita Ikuyo bowed deeply.

Seeing this, Ijichi Hongxia looked at Sakuragawa Aki with some hesitation, and silently moved closer to him.

"Hey, Qiu, what should we do..."

The girl with the blonde side ponytail tugged at his shirt and whispered, "Kita-chan is Aki's classmate, right? Look, that kid seems very sad..."

"Nijiga-chan, not only that, Kita-san is in the same class as us..."

Chihaya Aine, who was standing next to Sakuragawa Aki, also leaned over and whispered in Hongxia Mama's ear.

"But, I wonder why Kita-san wants to join the band?"

"Well... even if you can't play the guitar, you still want to join the band. There must be some important reason." Ijichi Hongxia looked at Sakuragawa Aki's expression and said in a low voice.

"What does Akira think? About Kita-chan."

By the way, you guys have to be whispering around me, like you're some kind of clique...

Sakuragawa Aki lowered his eyes.

He could already vaguely guess what Kita Ikuyo was thinking. It was either for Yamada Ryo, or for him, or maybe both?

Looking at the red-haired girl with her head lowered, walking silently towards the door, Sakuragawa Aki took a step forward and called out to her.

"Kita, wait a minute."

He had already become friends with Kita-chan. Although they didn't communicate much, they basically greeted each other every day.

Kita-chan's personality is cheerful and lively, and coupled with her cute appearance, the two of them naturally became familiar with each other quickly. Now they can simply call each other by their names without feeling awkward.

"Eh……"

Kita Ikuyo turned around and looked at him with a dazed expression.

"Qiu Jun, is there anything else?"

The girl's yellow-green eyes were slightly evasive, as if she didn't dare to look him directly in the eye.

This is not surprising. After all, she made a fool of herself in this situation, and she was facing a boy who she secretly cared about. It was understandable that Kita-chan wanted to escape at this time.

"Kita, you want to join the band, right?"

Looking at the girl's fair, rosy, and very lively and cute face, Sakuragawa Aki smiled slightly and spoke softly.

"I don't know the specific reason, but since it's Kita's wish, wouldn't it be a shame to just give up on it so easily?"

He pointed at the 'guitar' bag the girl was carrying on her back.

"Whether it's spending a fortune on instruments or practicing diligently on your own, hasn't Kita made a lot of sacrifices to join the band?"

"I……"

Kita Ikuyo bit her cherry lips lightly.

Ever since she decided to join the band, she has been practicing guitar privately every day.

In order to get closer to the person she admires and likes, and to get closer to him/her, the girl has indeed made great efforts and demonstrated an ability to act that cannot be underestimated.

However, only now did I realize that all my daily efforts were in vain.

"Actually, whether it's me, Nijiga, or Ryo, we can all see Kita-san's efforts."

Sakuragawa Aki quietly gazed at the girl's eyes, which were shining with light, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

"So, band, Xiduo doesn't want to give it another try?" He blinked slightly and said, "Even though, we haven't even finished our first live yet."

"but……"

Kita Ikuyo tightened her grip on the guitar strap, and the expression on her little face became a little hesitant and ashamed.

"Kita-chan."

Ijichi Hongxia came to her side, patted her shoulder gently, and encouraged her in her usual lively tone.

"It's okay. Even if you don't know how to play guitar now, you can practice slowly. We are all beginners too, okay~"

"I'm a master at bass..." Yamada Ryo poked his little head out from the side.

"Ryo, shut up! Seriously, the atmosphere is just right~"

Hong Xia Mama angrily scolded the blue-haired woman, then turned around and said to Kita-chan with a smile.

"It's my first live, let's cheer for you~"

"...But not only do I not know how to play guitar at all, I also deceived everyone before..."

Kita Ikuyo's eyes were filled with tears. She rubbed the corners of her eyes gently and spoke with a choked voice.

"Really... can we really form a band with everyone?"

Come to think of it, it seems that a certain pink-haired guitarist has also lied about his skill level.

Sakuragawa Aki tilted his gaze slightly and glanced at the pink-haired Aine-chan who was scratching her cheek guiltily beside him.

Besides, you're not some senior female agent who's infiltrated here, secretly trying to kick out a few people and then go public through a backdoor listing, replacing the band with a fake one. This little deception is nothing compared to the truth. (Laughs)

"Kita, you should know that Nijika is the drummer, Ryo is the bassist, I am the keyboardist, and Goto-san here is the new guitarist."

Sakuragawa Aki smiled gently at the girl and spoke in a soft tone.

"Our band's first live performance, and we're still missing a lead singer."

"But... not only did I lie to everyone, but I also embarrassed myself and wanted to run away, wuwu..."

After hearing everyone's comfort and encouragement, a touch of emotion slowly appeared on Kita Ikuyo's little face. Crystal tears flowed down her fair skin, and her eyes turned slightly red.

She wiped away her tears with her little hands, and her tender face soon turned red.

No, stop talking, Kita-chan. If you keep going, the pink-haired guy next to me will almost crawl into the ground.

Why does it feel like every word you say is poking at Aine-chan's heart? Then let me ask you, are you really not kidding? Then let me ask you?

"Well, although our band doesn't have any original songs yet, what we're going to play today is just a simple pop song." Sakuragawa Aki patted Aine-chan's head and said with some malice.

“In that case, it should be okay to have Aine come to support us.”

It's okay to let this pink-haired guy cosplay a low-profile guitar lead singer, just strumming the C chord or something.

At this moment, Aine-chan returns to the lead guitar vocals position!

“Eh…!?”

So the lead singer isn't needed? And didn't they just say they were short of people?

Kita-chan opened her mouth slightly.

However, before the girl could show a shocked expression, Sakuragawa Aki continued speaking.

"So, don't worry too much about whether our live will be messed up, and don't worry about whether your escape will bring about any bad consequences."

This was what he really meant. If he wanted the girl to adjust her mindset, he naturally had to alleviate her sense of guilt.

"Xiduo, don't think too much."

Sakuragawa Aki looked into the girl's emerald green eyes, which were as clear and moist as gemstones, and spoke gently.

“Just ask your own heart.”

He smiled slightly.

"Live, want to come along?"

"……Um!"

Kita Ikuyo gently wiped away her tears, a touch of emotion appeared on her little face, and she nodded heavily.

"Then, Qiuqiu, we'll go wait outside first. Good luck in the joint training~"

Chihaya Aine waved at the door, then clenched her fists and smiled sweetly.

"When Qiuqiu and the others go on stage, Deng-chan, Mu-chan, and I will be cheering for you from the audience!"

"Well, thank you."

Sakuragawa Aki gently patted the cute pink-haired creature's head and smiled gently.

I feel like looking at this lively pink-haired girl has slowly made the nervousness of my first performance disappear.
