MyGO? The string value monster craves the band girl!

"For other specific details, please return to your workstations to check. That's all. Meeting adjourned."

Chapter 42 Xiaoxiang's Maybach

In Akabane District, in a certain area of ​​simple low-rent housing.

After changing into the best clothes in her wardrobe, Shoko Toyokawa held her cell phone and waited at the intersection for the office staff who had contacted her in advance.

Two or three minutes later, a rare yet familiar car model came from the corner of the intersection, revealing a slightly old-fashioned yet calm and eye-catching outline and lines.

Shoko Toyokawa bit her lip and subconsciously thought, "O巴5丝】溜巴柒 is about to run away, but she found that the license plate of the slender car is not the Maybach that drove her a few blocks away and left when she was studying in Tsukinomori in the past, in accordance with the school's rule that no cars were allowed to pick her up and drop her off.

Toyokawa Shoko breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that she had become allergic to the torture of life. And she couldn't believe that she could find the same car model as her grandfather in such a place with such low wealth index...

After looking at the license plate number sent by the staff on her mobile phone, Shoko Toyokawa looked at the passing vehicles around her again, but suddenly came to her senses after a moment and her eyes suddenly turned back to the Maybach that was driving towards her.

The familiar car stopped steadily in front of her, just as it did when she was still the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family. A capable woman dressed in black from the Genmaki family opened the car door, got out and made a "please" gesture to Xiangzi.

"Ms. Toyokawa, the master sent us to pick you up to meet with the Sumimi team to discuss specific work matters."

Shoko Toyokawa breathed a sigh of relief to calm herself down. She was now a little unsure whether the person who sent the car to pick her up was deliberately using this kind of car to provoke her.

The number of this model is low, mainly because it has a spokesperson who is quite well-known internationally in East Asia...

Forget it, the car is already here, I can ask him in person when I get there...

"Thank you for your help, everyone." Xiangzi thanked him and subconsciously raised his foot to make a gesture as if getting on a bus or subway.

But the next moment she almost hit the car door. Fortunately, the man in black raised his arm to block the door frame. Xiangzi was stunned, with a little sourness in his throat. After thanking him again, he stepped sideways into the car.

She suddenly realized that she had hardly taken a taxi or even a private car for nearly a year...

When Xiangzi sat down in the seat, as if some muscle memory had been triggered, he brought his knees and his small leather shoes together, skillfully and awkwardly pulled out the seat belt, fastened it to the buckle, and placed his hands flat on his lower abdomen.

"If Miss Toyokawa has any questions, I will answer them within the scope of my duties." The man in black who was sitting opposite Xiangzi said. The sunglasses she wore made it difficult for Xiangzi Toyokawa to see her gaze.

Xiangzi hesitated for a moment, then finally asked softly, "Excuse me, was this car arranged by Xianjuan-kun?"

The man in black nodded unabashedly. "Young Master heard that this car was the vehicle of the Toyokawa family, so he arranged for one to be used as an official vehicle for the office. However, the model of the year that the Toyokawa family rides is currently unavailable on the market, so we only arranged for a new model of this year. Miss Toyokawa, do you wish to replace it?"

Xiangzi sighed softly with mixed feelings and nodded in apology: "Yes, I'm sorry to have troubled you, but in the future, when it comes to me, please arrange for an ordinary business car."

The man in black shook his head repeatedly: "Sorry, I can't do that."

"Ms. Fengchuan's request puts us in a difficult position. Young Master has already replaced all the official cars in the office, and this one is the most affordable one."

"If Ms. Toyokawa doesn't want to take this car, there are other models available."

"...I understand. From now on, please don't use this car when it comes to me." Shoko Toyokawa slowly turned her head to look at the street scene outside the car and sighed.

She didn't know whether it was the sadness of having her fate forced upon her without her opinion being asked, or the amusement of watching someone act as willful and mischievous as they did when they were little, that came to her mind.

"It really seems like something a boy from the Xianjuan family could do. I've watched him grow up like this... Even if I question him, I'll probably just think too much. He's simply increasing the benefits for all the employees, right?"

"I still thought he was too kind and too considerate of other people's feelings."

"What will happen to me next?"

"Maybe I shouldn't have agreed then... Never mind. If I hadn't agreed, he might have actually done something like asking me for compensation."

"Either go back to the Toyokawa family and ask for help, or accept this arrangement that's been forced upon me and blocks even my escape route... It's truly condescending. When I was little, I was too weak and used to looking at people with kindness. How could I have ever considered him a child as kind-hearted as him?"

----

In the lounge exclusively for the popular idol Sumimi, Junda Mana and Sankaku Hatsuka were huddled around a laptop, browsing the job adjustment file that had just been uploaded to the intranet 0A system.

"Ms. Shimizu got a promotion...it seems the new president has a good attitude towards us sumimi."

Mana looked at the transfer order regarding Sumimi's former music director and said softly.

Sanjiao Chuhua, who was wearing a baseball cap and looked worried, nodded solemnly.

"But we don't know yet who will take over as our music director. I hope it will be someone older and more stable."

"Well, let's not add to your troubles for now. Xiaochu, let's see what the free rental that the president mentioned looks like."

As she spoke, Mana moved the mouse and clicked on the newly released list of eligible applicants and room options on the homepage.

After a quick look, although Sumimi, who has already debuted, may strictly speaking be different from "employees" who receive a fixed salary, she is still included in the list of important working groups - the personnel who are specifically responsible for coordinating all the work of Sumimi and herself can apply for free rental.

Neither Chuhua nor Mana lives a luxurious life. Although Sumimi, the group that carries their dreams, has been very popular since its debut, the related commercial income still needs time to accumulate.

What's more, they are a new idol group brought up by the agency, so the proportion of commercial share will not be too high before the agreement is renegotiated.

The average lifespan of girl idol groups is even shorter than that of mainstream bands. No group has ever dared to claim that they can grasp the audience's taste for more than ten years when they debuted. Most girl idol groups cannot survive five or even three years and have to experience disbandment, reorganization, and shelving.

As the only super metropolitan area, Tokyo siphons off talents from all over Japan. Young people who want to change their destiny can basically only see opportunities here. Sudden rise and fall happen almost every day.

So... idol members of groups like Sumimi who were lucky enough to have at least a brief burst of popularity, as long as they have either high IQ or EQ, basically have a strong sense of saving money and avoid extravagance and waste.

Although Tokyo, as the capital, is much more affordable than its neighbors in terms of house price to income ratio, it is still a heavy financial burden for young people to buy or rent a house independently. As long as the free rental conditions provided by the agency are acceptable, they are happy to save expenses in this area.

So, after reading the room types provided by the agency for more than ten minutes, Chuhua and Mana, who were so surprised that they were speechless, looked at each other at the same time.

"I'm not dreaming, Xiaochu...why don't you pinch me." Mana's voice sounded as if her soul was about to float out.

Chu Hua frowned. "No matter how you divide it, these all fall into the category of luxury homes, right? They're practically a circle around the luxury residential area surrounding the office."

Mana said softly in a dreamlike voice, "Xiaochu, you know, when I passed by these places on my way to the office before, I didn't even dare to look at the prices... Is the new president doing charity?"

Chu Hua smiled and shook his head slightly, then opened the real estate agency website on his computer, selected the name of a property, copied it, and pasted it into the search box.

"Xiaochu, Xiaochu..." Mana stretched out her finger and tapped the screen, "You made the wrong choice. I'm not buying a house. I'm just looking at the renting price..."

As Chuhua continued to copy and paste the property names from the document to the agency's website, her and Mana's expressions gradually changed from surprise to numbness.

"The lowest offer is 2.4 million yen per month...and it may not even match the room type provided by the agency." Chu Hua murmured.

Mana grabbed the collar of her clothes, closed her eyes and adjusted her breathing three times before saying:

"We're so lucky to have such a kind president. Xiaochu, let's apply as soon as possible. This kind of expense is simply not something the agency can sustain with its profits. The president might feel bad soon and only give us a chance to experience it for a month or two..."

Chu Hua looked at Mana's expectant eyes and smiled helplessly: "Don't worry, even if the president stops renting these houses for free, it won't be because he is worried about the expenses..."

Mana, who was about to ask Chuhua to apply for a roommate, was interrupted and asked, "Huh? Xiaochu said that, did you know the president before?"

"I guess... we were friends when we were kids, though I don't know if he still remembers me now."

Mana covered her mouth in surprise. She clearly remembered that Chuhua was born on a small island and had only recently come to Tokyo to work hard...

Before Mana could continue to inquire about the gossip, the door of Sumimi's lounge was opened from the outside.

"Ms. Sumita, Ms. Sankaku, regarding Sumimi's future arrangements, the president invites you to the top floor office to discuss."

President? Why did you come to us so soon?

Mana and Chuhua looked at each other with different thoughts, then went together and took the elevator to the top floor.

"Xiao Chu." Standing behind the staff who led them to the president's office, Mana looked at Chuhua who was thinking with her head down, and suddenly spoke.

"Hmm?" Chu Hua turned to look at his partner.

"No matter what you have to face...I will always be with you."

Mana clenched her fists at her chest and encouraged herself.

"Because, sumimi is two people in one!"

Chapter 43 Donut: What about me?

"Oh, yes." Chuhua nodded affirmatively to Mana, and a reassuring smile appeared on his great face.

"Sumi has overcome so many difficulties... As long as we are together, there is no challenge that we cannot meet."

Trainee, debut, and explosion into fame... Each stage is filled with precious memories of Chuhua and Mana working hard together, sweating and practicing, and supporting each other to overcome difficulties.

"Xiao Chu..." Mana was delighted to receive Chuhua's response, with a glimmer of anticipation in her eyes.

This is our sumimi, a popular idol group with an unbreakable bond between the members, two people as one, who can trust each other's backs!

No matter what plans or intentions the newly appointed president has for Sumimi, I, Junda Mana, will stand by Xiaochu through thick and thin!

"Ding!"

The elevator stopped at the top floor. Chuhua and Mana looked at each other firmly, encouraging each other, and then walked towards the Magic (Office) Prince (Prince) Castle (Room) tacitly.

Thirty seconds later.

"Congratulations, Chuhua, you finally succeeded in pursuing your dream in Tokyo."

"No, this is just the first step. I still have a long way to go to achieve my wish."

In the president's office, Mana, who was sitting side by side with Hatsuka, blinked blankly, her eyes wandering between the two people who started reminiscing about the past.

Mana felt like she was punching cotton, or like she was getting bitten by a dog after taking a shower and lying down, only to find that the other person couldn't even take off his clothes.

Originally, Xiaochu and I had prepared for the two female knights to challenge the big devil together and rack our brains to avoid the defeat CG... But why...

Mana's mind flashed with the scene of Chuhua, dressed in a leg-revealing knight outfit, sitting directly on the Demon King's lap and saying to her, "Actually, I've been a member of the Demon King's army for a long time."

After greeting Chuhua, whose handsome face was showing a great smile under the baseball cap, Xianjuan Wei looked at Mana, who was sitting next to Chuhua, with a blank and distracted look in her eyes.

"And, the donut lady..."

"It's MANA-chan! MANA-chan!"

Mana put her hand on her chest, looking very angry at this suspected black fan name.

Compared to Sankaku Hatsuka, who is the guitarist and backing vocalist, Junda Mana, who is the lead singer, is obviously more lively and even more eccentric.

Xian Juanwei smiled at her and said seriously:

"MANA-chan, thank you so much for taking care of Chuhua as your teammate. It was great that you were chosen to debut with Chuhua."

"Ah? Um...haha...I'm also...very lucky to have met Xiaochu."

The words that Mana had originally begun to conceive in her mind to deal with the situation suddenly flew away. Mana, feeling grateful, curled up the corners of her mouth and pinched a strand of hair awkwardly.

Xianjuan Wei looked at Mana, whose toughness bar was emptied in an instant, and then looked at Chuhua next to her. The rude thought "Ms. Donut's fashion sense is really hopeless" emerged in her mind.

While occasionally accompanying Genmaki Shin in playing in a band, Genmaki Wei also got to know some band girls with different personalities. Although they lacked in-depth communication except for a few from the HHW band, he was sure that none of the girls could compare to Mana in terms of fashion.

In such a big city like Tokyo, how many girls would wear such abstract outfits as vests as outerwear?

If you put you together with Chu Hua, who focuses on handsome style, any normal person would think that you are the islander, right?

When Xianjuan Wei's gaze swept over this idol group that had a strong presence even though they did not form a five-member band, Chuhua was also looking at him, suppressing the unforgettable emotions in his heart and not letting them show in his eyes.

A year ago, Toyokawa Shoko, who had glanced at Genmaki Yui at her mother's funeral, needed a photo to recognize him when she was caught delivering newspapers; but Sanjiao Chuhua, who had not seen Genmaki Yui for several years, did not need any extra reminders and recognized the face that always took her place next to Xiaoxiang in her dreams at first sight.

After arriving in Tokyo, Chuhua thought about Xiangzi almost every day, and almost every day she thought about the boy from the Genmaki family who was by her side and whom she most wished had never appeared.

Xiangzi and Xiaomu only had vague memories of some of their childhood events, but for Chuhua...

That was the most colorful memory for her, and the impression of it deepened every day as she recalled it.

In other words... among all the main girls in Bang Bang's bands, the one who left the most unforgettable impression on Xianjuan Weiqi, Lin Bayu Siba Qiqi, besides Xianjuan Xin, might be Chuhua, who thinks of him almost every day?

"Chuhua has become a very amazing person. I admire him for being able to achieve such results in Tokyo at this age." Xianjuan Wei put his left hand on his right wrist and looked at Chuhua with a smile.

Chu Hua nodded solemnly and said, "At least now, I can finally say that besides cooking, I also have skills that surpass Xianjuan-kun."

Xianjuan Wei had no objection to this, and even felt that the other party was right.

Sanjiao Chuhua can serve as the lyricist and composer, guitarist, and backup vocalist for Sumimi, as well as the lyricist, lead guitarist, and lead vocalist for Mujica.

It's like Superman!

Even in a world of music and martial arts like Bandoli, she is considered to be one of the most talented and powerful girls in the band.

"Hatsuka, Mana, I specifically asked you to come here today to inform you about the follow-up arrangements for Sumimi."

Upon hearing this, Chuhua and Mana subconsciously adjusted their sitting posture to a more upright position.

The other party was informing, not negotiating. This was a tough wording that the two had not heard for a long time since the Sumimi group became popular.

"Firstly, Sumimi's existing activities will not be affected. Secondly, I believe your biggest concern right now is who will take over the vacant music director position?"

Sumimi and the other nodded at the same time.

Xian Juanwei observed Chu Hua's reaction with great interest:

"The new music director will not be promoted from the existing staff of the firm, but will be an external professional hired by me."

Chuhua and Mana were both startled. The word "airborne" often makes people automatically reduce their trust by 30%.
