There are always girls in bands who want to date me

Chapter 162: First Live, Let’s Start!

Inside the "Fan Xing" Livehouse, Chihaya Aine was standing next to the stage with Takamatsu Touma and Wakaba Mutsu.

The pink-haired girl showed a hint of curiosity and a touch of worry on her face. In the slightly dim environment, her little head kept looking around.

“…Aine, um, it’s probably not time for Qiu to go on stage yet.” The little penguin beside her whispered a reminder.

"Qiu, ten more minutes."

The little Mutou behind him also added lightly.

"Eh~ I, I know, I'm just a little nervous..."

Thousand. Find 9б○壹②⑥②⑦ Mountain Order

Aine-chan used the dim light from her cell phone screen as a light, turned her head to look at the expressions of Takamatsu Deng and Wakaba Mutsushi beside her, and then asked curiously.

"Come to think of it, weren't Deng Deng and Mu-chan nervous when they performed on stage for the first time?"

"..."

After hearing her words, Ruo Yemu lowered his head, thought for a moment, and nodded slightly.

Eh? Hara, so Mutsu-chan gets nervous too?

You can't really tell from the outside...

Moreover, Mu-chan’s guitar skills are so good. Does that mean it is really difficult for her to perform on stage?

A hint of surprise appeared on Chihaya Aine's little face.

“Um… I’m sorry, Aine-chan, my mind went blank during my first performance, and I don’t remember anything…”

Gao Songdeng hesitated for a moment and spoke in a low voice.

...Ehhhh? There's this kind of thing!?

Is this the operation of an inspired player? I don't quite understand it, but it looks pretty amazing, doesn't it?!

The expression on Aine-chan's face became even more surprised, but she still held it back and chose not to continue asking questions.

The former Crychic has disbanded, which has left scars in Deng Deng's heart and probably also in Mu-chan's heart. The smart Aine-chan naturally would not take the initiative to expose other people's scars.

The three of them fell silent, and for a moment they were a little nervous and didn't know what to say.

There were some sounds of whispering coming from the crowd gathered around, and a few people were looking at their mobile phones, the dim light of the screens like stars in the dark night.

Under the dim ambient lights above the stage, blurry figures were outlined.

"coming……"

At this moment, Wakaba Mu on the side spoke softly.

Sure enough, as her voice sounded, the lights on the stage dimmed completely, and the figures of Sakuragawa Aki and others appeared on the stage, each adjusting their musical instruments.

"...I'm so nervous, Qiuqiu. Are you okay?"

Aine-chan clenched her hands, feeling her palms getting slightly damp.

It was obvious that the people in the audience were more nervous than those on the stage.

"Qiu... has always been able to comfort me gently. No matter what happens, you can always remain calm, so there will definitely... definitely be no problem."

The little penguin beside him also pursed his lips and took a deep breath unconsciously.

She looked just like Aine-chan, her hands clasped nervously against her chest, her delicate curves rising and falling slightly with her breathing.

Only this little head was looking at the stage calmly, its light golden eyes seemed to be free of any impurities as it quietly looked at the slender figure.

After a moment, the overhead lights suddenly came on, illuminating the entire stage with sparkling light.

"Qiuqiu, Jia...eh!?"

Aine-chan was about to loudly cheer for Sakuragawa Akira, but she suddenly stopped before the words came out of her mouth.

What... what is that!?

In the corner of the stage, there was already a large cardboard box standing.

Perfectly ripe mango!

No no no, what on earth is that!?

Just when Aine-chan was confused, the people around her started to make a commotion.

"Hey, look at that guy, so handsome..."

"Wow~ Is this some artist or debut band?"

"No, they're all unfamiliar faces, but that boy is really handsome, and he seems very familiar~"

Some ordinary guests were talking about it, while on the other side there were bursts of cheers and encouragement.

"Qiu Jun, come on!"

"Qiu, it's my first live performance, come on~"

"Hey, Sakuragawa-kun is the most handsome man in the world!"

"End band come on!"

These are the guests that Sakuragawa Aki is familiar with on a daily basis, and they can be considered as his semi-fan club. They knew in advance that his band would be having its first live performance today, so they came here in advance to support him.

There were also a few female high school students nearby, who were also quietly cheering.

"Hongxia-chan, come on~"

"Ijichi-kun, Fight!"

Sakuragawa Aki on the stage smiled and waved to them, his eyes passing over the very conspicuous box of ripe mangoes on the side of the stage, looking at Ijichi Hongka behind him, and watching the blonde girl smile and nod at him.

He looked down at the pitch-black electronic keyboard and took a deep breath.

First Live, let’s begin!

…………

"Nice to meet you, hello everyone, we are the Bond (End) Band~"

Ijichi Hinikaka waved to the audience and began her opening MC performance.

"Today we're going to play a few songs that may be familiar to you all, so please give us your feedback!"

The girl with blonde hair and side ponytail raised the drumstick high, took a deep breath, and then tapped the beat.

"1, 2, 3, 4!"

The prelude of the music then sounded.

Sakuragawa Aki's fingers skillfully pressed on the black and white keys, and a familiar tone emerged, accompanied by the guitar sound of Pochi-chan as the opening.

While playing, he secretly paid attention to the status of his companions.

Hongxia's drums...are a bit out of time. Maybe it's because she's a bit nervous about her first live performance. The drum beats are okay, but the cymbals' beat is a bit messed up.

Fortunately, this small mistake was quickly covered up by the lead singer's voice and the sound of the guitar.

Cool bass... The bass doesn't matter at all, just skip it~

Pochi-chan's guitar playing was still a little out of beat. No... it should be said that she was still using solo techniques to play the ensemble, without adjusting according to her teammates' beat.

But it doesn't matter. Sakuragawa Aki looks serious and tries his best to cooperate with Pochi-chan's performance.

The keys are pressed down rapidly, with the force of hitting the keys sometimes softly and sometimes hard, which serves as a link between the previous and the next parts of Goto Ichiri's guitar.

Mistakes on the scene are inevitable, as long as they can be covered up successfully.

Only Kita Ikuyo, the lead singer, is a completely independent individual. Her voice is the most prominent timbre of the music and cannot be covered up by any other instrument.

...The breathing seems a little unstable, but it's okay, and it's not out of tune.

Moreover, because she only needed to focus on singing, Kita-chan's rhythm was the most stable, and she sang closely following Hongxia Mama's drum beats.

Sakuragawa Aki breathed a sigh of relief, and then devoted himself more fully to the performance.

He also began to have no energy left to take care of her.

Chapter 163: Genius Taken for granted

"Amazing……"

Aine-chan in the audience widened her eyes slightly as she looked at the handsome boy on the stage with a calm and focused expression.

His black eyes drooped slightly, and his slender fingers fell on the pitch-black electronic keyboard, and notes emerged one after another.

At this moment, Aine-chan seemed to feel an itch in her chest, her breathing quickened slightly, and it seemed that her heartbeat was also quietly accelerating.

It's amazing! Although there are some small mistakes from time to time, the coordination among them is pretty good and they can cover it up cleverly.

Aine-chan's gaze swept across the stage.

The glittering stage lights, the rhythmic music, and Kita Ikuyo's energetic voice made the four people (?) on the stage seem to be shining.

Um, so the cardboard box actually contains Ichiri-chan?

"Autumn……"

The little penguin also murmured.

However, looking at the scene before her, she did not feel joy or peace of mind.

For some reason, as she watched Qiu playing on the stage with others, a trace of uneasiness quietly emerged in her heart.

Especially when looking at the faint smile on that handsome face, this uneasiness is becoming more and more intense.

There is a feeling of losing him...

It is obvious that human joys and sorrows are not shared.

"Qiuqiu, come on!"

Chihaya Aine, who was standing by, took advantage of the break after the first song ended, excitedly waved her hands and shouted loudly, her sweet voice clearly reaching the ears of Sakuragawa Aki on the stage.

The girl was shouting and jumping around with her hands raised, looking very energetic.

In contrast to her, Ruoye Mu's delicate little face was full of calmness as he silently looked at the people on the stage.

Her gaze swept lightly over Goto Ichiri in the cardboard box, passed the drummer Ijichi Nijika at the back, paused at Yamada Ryo who was playing the bass, and finally stopped at the slender figure behind the electronic keyboard at the side of the stage.

The girl's pale golden eyes stared at him without blinking.

When the first song ended, she didn't react at all.

However, as the second song began, the green-haired girl, who looked as delicate as a doll, moved her eyes slightly.

"Singing..."

Looking at the handsome boy with black hair and black eyes on the stage, and the faint smile on his face, Ruo Yemu spoke as if in a dream.

However, such a gentle voice soon disappeared in the dynamic music.

…………

Sakuragawa Aki's fingers quickly fell on the black and white keys.

He lowered his eyes slightly, and the music in his ears seemed to surround him all the time, as if he was in a sea of music.

Hongxia's drum beats, Pochi-chan's strumming, Kita's singing, and even the originally vague and cold bass sound were all clearly visible at this moment.

My body feels so light...

The dark eyes were like a surging black tide, and the stage lights from above were like scattered stardust, scattering on the black and white piano keys.

At this moment, Sakuragawa Aki seemed to have transformed into a skilled performer. Instead of using his brain to control his body, he handed it over to the music and instinct, dancing to the dense drum beats and notes.

His daily hard practice made his body react instinctively before he even thought about it. His fingertips slid across the keys, adjusting to the rhythm of the girls and harmonizing with them.
