Chapter 67: Live...Can it go smoothly?

"Wait...wait for me a moment."

When Chihaya Aine came out of the bathroom, she met the others who had already picked up their instruments and were ready to go.

"Hurry up."

Li Xi said this a little unhappily.

"I got it……"

Deng, who was walking at the back, stared blankly at the direction where Aine left, and also stopped at Su Shi, who was at the end.

Live...will it be a success? Listening to the noise coming from the stage backstage, I thought back to my first live a year ago. No one could have imagined that after the first live, it would be like this...

Deng... is he also thinking about the past? Su Shi looked at Deng, who was looking down at him in deep thought, and spoke slowly.

"Little lamp."

Hearing Su Shi's voice, Deng turned around and looked at the woman who played the role of a gentle mother in the band.

"Even after this live, we will still form a band together in the future."

It's 'we' that doesn't include those two pink-haired ones...

"Ah."

Deng nodded, completely unaware of Su Shi's true thoughts.

-

"A lot of people..."

Pochi met Xiangzi in the hall. Even without going into the studio, he could feel the sound waves coming from the stage.

"Yes."

Toyokawa Shoko nodded. "Are you used to so many people, Pochi? Also, how is Pochi's health?"

"It's... it's okay."

"That's good."

As Toyokawa Shoko spoke, she noticed the white-haired girl next to Pochi and remembered that she was resting nearby during their last street live. And… Mu's guitar at that time must have been hers. "Is this girl the guitarist I don't know?"

"Well, her name is Lenai, I want Lenai."

Pochi introduced Xiangzi, and then turned around to introduce Lenai, "Her name is Toyokawa Xiangzi, and she is my classmate."

"Hello."

Toyokawa Shoko reached out her hand to Lenae, ready to shake hands, but Lenae just moved closer to Pochi and made a threatening gesture towards Shoko.

"Hah!"

Although it does look cute...

"Eh? What's wrong?"

Shoko Toyokawa didn't understand the situation, she just thought that this child was really like a cat.

Is this a declaration of... sovereignty? To Pochi?

"Le...Le Nai needs to greet people properly, don't do this!"

As Pochi said this, he took her little hand, which he compared to a claw, and stretched it in front of Xiangzi so that they could shake hands properly.

"Well……"

Le Nai, who was forcibly held down, was somewhat dissatisfied. She didn't want to have any contact with this woman who seemed to have a good relationship with Pochi, and was also her classmate...

"Lena...you really have a personality..."

Toyokawa Shoko smiled and didn't take Lenai's childish behavior to heart. At the same time, she didn't notice that someone was staring at her not far away.

……

Hachiman Kairei followed the line of sight of Sankaku Hatsuka beside her and found that she didn't seem to be staring at Pochi, but at the blue-haired girl opposite Pochi - Toyokawa Shoko.

Hachiman Kairei knew this person, and from Riki, she knew about her incredible talent for arranging music and her professional keyboard skills. But the most important thing was the sudden disbandment after their first live performance.

'It's all that guy's fault!'

This is what Li Xi said at the time, quite angry.

So... Sankaku-san is actually here for Toyokawa Shoko? Just a quick question, "After watching for so long, why don't you just go say hello?"

"No, it's not here yet..."

Just as he said it, Chu Huahao realized something and turned to look at Hailing, "Okay, you're testing me."

"Did I?"

Hachiman Kairei chose to play dumb.

"I didn't expect Hachiman-san to be so mean."

Although he said this, Chu Hua was not angry. Before he knew it, Hai Ling had become one of the people he was most familiar with. "Okay, let's go in first. Li Xi and the others are about to make their debut. Let's go in early and find a good seat."

"Don't want to continue watching?"

"No... for now..."

……

"Time is short, do your best."

Rinrinko cheered them up at the last moment before going on stage. She knew that Li Xi's band had only been established for a short time, and it was indeed a bit difficult for them.

"it is good."

"Thank you."

Li Xisushi responded and went on stage, with Deng following behind alone.

"I took a lot of things."

Su Shi, who had been paying attention to the lights since a while ago, was waiting for her on the stage. "Can I put the water in front?"

"Um……"

"let's work hard together."

"Ah."

Mu watched their interaction silently from the sidelines, saying nothing before turning his head to gaze at the audience. Because it was intermission, and also because it was an unknown band, the audience was much smaller than before.

Looking around, he didn't see Xiang, "Hasn't he come in yet..."

On the other side, everyone found their seats. Deng looked at the audience and couldn't help but think of the phrase "Lead singer, you work so hard."

At this moment, the stage lights came on and there was a burst of applause from the audience, "That...that."

"Light, notebook."

Su Shi reminded him from behind, and he realized that the notebook was still tightly held in his arms.

"When we first met, we were a temporary warm-up band,"

As expected, everyone is not in good condition...Except Xiao Mu, but you can't tell from her expression. "Our hearts are beating fast right now. I hope everyone can give us a gentle look."

Deng put down her notebook and looked for the figure who could give her courage in the audience, but... she didn't find him.

Why... isn't Pochi... here?

"Everyone, are you ready?"

Li Xi kept watching Ain's back, as she was the one he was most worried about. After tapping the drumsticks, Ain finally came out of her daze, turned around, and looked at Li Xi nervously.

But it's already this late, it's no use looking at me like this...

Li Xi could only give her a 'come on' look, then started playing with his drumsticks...

-

"Let's... go in."

It seems like it’s almost time for Lixi and the others to go on stage.

"Yeah, that's true."

There was no music in the studio anymore; they must have started preparing.

"Then, Lenai, let's go together."

Pochi said as he looked at Lenai and noticed that she seemed to have seen something and was looking in one direction, "Lenai?"

"Pochi, come!"

Ignoring Pochi, he grabbed her hand and pulled her in one direction.

"Wait...wait a minute, where are we going now?!"

Le Nai didn't respond, but just pulled her along. Seeing this, Toyokawa Shoko had no choice but to follow.

After making their way through the crowd, Lenai pulled Pochi in front of an old woman with pink highlights. "Grandma!"

"Lena, you're here."

The old woman whom Lenai called grandma looked at Pochi who had been dragged along all the way and said, "Well, Lenai, thank you for taking care of me last time."

"Last...last time?"

It took a while for Pochi to remember that it was the time when Lenai stayed over at his house. "No...it's okay."

"It's fun at Pochi's house~"

Lenai also added this.

"But aren't you supposed to go on stage today?"

"Eh? I..."

Facing the extremely imposing grandmother Lenai, Pochi was speechless for a moment.

"I'm sorry, Goto-san is sick and can't go on stage today."

Toyokawa Shoko answered for Pochi.

"Really……"

He replied in a monotonous tone, glancing at the blue-haired girl who seemed to be blocking Pochi's way. "Hmph, you're quite popular..."

"Eh? I..."

"Forget it, I won't get involved in your affairs. Just do whatever you want."

"Okay~"

After saying that, Lenai grabbed Pochi's hand and ran into the studio again.

"Well...well, goodbye!"

……

When I finally pushed open the door of the studio, I found that Lixi and the others were already on the stage, but... why was the atmosphere so weird?

"Sorry, please do it again."

Li Xi said this and started playing again. The music of "Bi Tian Ban Zou" sounded, but after a while some discordant syllables appeared and the sound became silent again.

Then Riki on the stage shook his drumsticks to signal Aine to come over, and Sushi took the microphone to liven up the atmosphere.

"Sorry, actually... this is our first time doing a live show..."

Why does it feel... not so good?

Pochi in the audience thought so, clenching his fists nervously...
