Guitar Hero also wants to play Kasuga Shadow!

"That's right. What else?"

"There are also things like amusement park tickets and movie tickets."

"Oh, I remember now. Last time you brought the ticket and said we wanted to go to the amusement park together."

"That's right, but Li Xi still didn't go."

"Tsk... amusement parks and stuff, I'm not a kid anymore."

"Really? So Riki-san is the type who treats an amusement park as a child's playground?"

"Huh? Any problem?"

Lixi, who had never been to an amusement park since childhood, didn't know when this fixed impression was formed.

"That's really troublesome. I wanted to recommend Riki-san to invite Pochi to the amusement park."

"Um...can I ask why?"

"Because I think Pochi is the type who would be very curious about amusement parks."

"Is that so?"

Shiina Riki silently took note of Hailing's suggestion.

"Okay, class is almost time. You'll be going to practice after this class, right?"

"Of course. After all, we have a live show tomorrow."

"Really? I'll go back and see it tomorrow."

Hailing said and turned back to her seat.

"Amusement park...?"

Shiina Riki muttered to himself, "Why not invite Pochi to the amusement park next time... or invite Deng as well?"

"Let's go, Xiao Mu."

Nagasaki Suyo found Wakaba Mutsu in the Gardening Department's cucumber garden. Tsuki-no-Mori's school hours were earlier than Hanasakigawa's, so it was okay to schedule club activities before going to Ring.

"Wait a minute, there's another pot."

Mu Zheng was watering the cucumber seedlings he had planted himself. They were almost ready to bear fruit, and the need for water was even greater than before.

"Okay~"

Nagasaki Suyo stood behind Mu and watched her watering the cucumbers. A year ago, during the Crychic period, she seemed to have watched Mu watering the cucumbers from behind.

But Xiangzi would also be there to help.

Forget it, there’s no need to think about these things at this point. After the Live ends tomorrow, it’s only natural to let Xiaomu stay and then find Xiangzi. Crychic should be able to come back... right?

Nagasaki Motoyo also knew that what she wanted might be difficult, mainly because Pochi's influence was quite great now, and it seemed unlikely to kick her out just like that.

Then he slowly focused his eyes on Mu who was busy in front of him, and after organizing his words, he asked, "Xiao Mu, what do you think of Pochi?"

"How about it?"

Hearing Pochi's name, Mu stopped watering the plants and tilted his head to ask in confusion.

"Just... do you like Pochi?"

"……Um."

"Hey~ Mu-chan and Pochi aren't that familiar, right? What do you like about her?"

"Pochi, it's simpler, guitar, it's pretty cool too."

Mu said as he began to water the pot again. The pot was almost empty. He shook it and confirmed the amount of water. It was indeed time to change it. He walked to the side to get some water.

"Really... Xiao Mu likes this type..."

Why do I feel like she's being mean to me? I know I'm not that innocent.

"Then...if it's possible, would you like to join the current band, Xiao Muxiang?"

Hearing this, Mu was stunned for a moment. She now understood what Su Shi was trying to do. He ignored the water pipe beside him, and soon the water overflowed from the kettle.

"Ah~ Xiao Mu, don't be distracted."

Nagasaki Suyo saw this and stepped forward to turn off the water pipe, while Mu beside her replied in a voice as low as possible, "I'm not going..."

"Really? Then Xiao Mu, go water the plants first. We still have to hurry up for rehearsal."

"Ah."

The moment Wakaba Mu lowered his head to pick up the kettle, Nagasaki Suyo took off the disguise of smiling and stared at the back of Mu's head.

Why won't you obey me in anything?

He turned around, not wanting to watch her watering the plants. He looked at the students passing by the entrance of Tsuki no Mori and said in a voice only he could hear, "I will definitely... let you come back..."

Chapter 65: Everyone is very nervous...

"So nervous..."

After the pre-live audition ended, Su Shi was the last one to follow her teammates into the lounge.

“The rehearsal never happened.”

Li Xi, who was standing by, also felt a little resentful because he did not perform well in front of Afterglow, a senior whom he respected.

"No, those other bands are so good, some even sing while playing guitar."

It was the first time for Aiyin to participate in a live performance of this level, and she collapsed on the sofa, a little scared.

"Then you should practice more."

"I'm practicing..."

Aiyin muttered softly, glancing at Mu, who was silently hugging his guitar beside her. "Why is Mu so calm?"

"Xiao Mu has been on TV shows before, so he should be able to adapt to this level."

Su Shi explained on the side.

"Ah."

Muye nodded.

Hmm... I feel more pressured. We are all guitarists, but there is such a big gap between us... No, I want to go to the bathroom again... I stood up, holding my stomach, and walked towards the bathroom.

"Going to the bathroom?"

Seeing that Aine didn't respond, Sushi continued, "Then I'll go to the other bands' lounge to say hello. Where are Xiao Deng and Li Xi?"

Su Shi also understood that Mu didn't like this kind of activity very much, so she didn't add Mu's name.

"I'll forget it."

Only Li Xi responded. He made such a fool of himself during the rehearsal, so how could he still have the mood to say hello?

"Aren't you going?"

After confirming, Su Shi walked out of the lounge and closed the door, but did not visit other lounges as she said.

I just found an empty corner, took out my phone, and clicked on Pochi’s profile picture.

[Has Pochi arrived at the Ring? And how is his health?]

At this time, Pochi was still in the coffee shop next door. The live performance was about to start. There were no other customers in the coffee shop. Only Pochi and Lenai were sitting there.

"Well...um, the live show is about to start. Is it okay if we don't go in?"

Pochi said to Lenai who was still eating matcha parfait beside him.

"It's okay~"

He scooped a big spoonful into his mouth and said, "Mmm~ delicious!"

Is it really that delicious? Pochi is still not used to the taste of matcha, it's a bit bitter. In comparison, I prefer the sweet taste of mango juice.

As soon as Pochi reached the Ring, Lenai, who was waiting there, spotted him and stopped him. Lenai thought eating parfait before a live performance could help with anxiety, so he thought.

She only knew that Boqi's band was having a live performance today and had no idea that Boqi had a cold. She also didn't realize that the participating bands should have gone inside for soundchecks long ago. She just thought that playing guitar on stage would be enough, so she had been lurking outside the Ring.

As for why it was Pochi who was watching Lenai eat Buffy bite by bite, that was another story.

Lenai looked at Pochi, scooped a spoonful of buffy and brought it to Pochi's mouth.

"Give~"

This…is this…feeding? "No…no need."

Pochi pointed to the mask on his face and said, "I still have a cold and can't eat anything too cold."

"Oh, okay."

Lenai obediently put the spoon into her mouth, "Pochi, why do you have a cold? And where's Live?"

"Um...I caught a cold from staying up late, so I asked someone else to fill in for me during Live."

When Lenai heard that Pochi couldn't go live, her face changed, "Live? Not going to do it?!"

"No... It's not that I won't do it, I just won't go on stage..."

Hearing this, Lenai looked at Pochi with wide eyes, "If that's the case..."

"It's okay...it's just this time. There will be opportunities in the future."

Pochi scratched his face, seemingly having let Lenai down. "Besides, I can still go to the streets with Lenai to perform a Live, right?"

"Um..."

Lenai seemed a little angry, but after staring at Pochi for a long time, she took a bite of Buffy with a spoon and said, "Don't kick the quilt when you sleep, or you will catch a cold. Grandma told me so."

"It's not like I caught a cold from kicking the quilt..."

At this time, a message came from the mobile phone, it was Su Shi who was concerned about him.

[I've arrived. I think I'm almost feeling better.]

After replying like this, Su Shi and the others should be on stage soon, and they still have time to care about me. Su Shi is so gentle.

【Did Pochi come alone? 】

[I also made an appointment with Xiangzi, but it seems she hasn't arrived yet. She's with Lenai now.]

「Oh, I feel relieved that someone is with Pochi. 」

Su Shi put away her phone. Sure enough, Xiangzi would come too...

……

"lamp?"

After Deng Mu and himself were the only ones left in the room, Li Xi said to Deng, "It's cold sitting there, you should take a seat."

Then he stood up and made room for the lamp.

Upon hearing this, Deng stood up from the ground and sat next to Li Xi.

"Are you nervous?"

Li Xi hesitated for a moment before asking. Because the lights hadn't made any noise during the sound check, if he went on stage in this state...

But Deng just lowered his head and said nothing.

"No wonder..."

After all, he was also very nervous, and was reminded by senior Linlinzi to slow down. Speaking of which, the least nervous person should be Mu. Li Xi turned his head and looked at Mu, but she was just holding her guitar in a daze.

"There will be an audience for the official performance...right?"

I didn't say a word just now. Can I really complete the live performance smoothly under the gaze of the audience?

"Ah... I guess most of them are fans of Afterglow."

Li Xi pretended not to care, hoping to ease Deng's tension.

"...During the previous live performance, the audience was saying, 'Why are you so desperate?...'"
