Crossover Anime: A Musical Anime - Lighthearted and Enjoyable

Bai Qiu finally couldn't help but speak up: "Liang, this author seems, no, definitely is still alive, right?"

Goto Ichiri also looked at the photo with a puzzled expression; she knew the author as well.

Yamada Ryo glanced over and said, "If you're not updating your work anymore, what's the difference between that and leaving?"

Bai Qiu was speechless and choked with emotion.

"It seems to make sense."

"Ichi Nijika said reluctantly."

Bai Qiu was greatly shocked. Did even Hong Xia think the same way?

Could it be that he was really wrong?

No, the fault lies not with him, but with the world.

Next, Yamada Ryo continued, saying that this author had several books that were only updated a few volumes before stopping, and that the publisher's editor had also issued a statement that the author was unwell and hospitalized.

Bai Qiu thought to herself, "Ms. Machida, please don't just send me to the hospital like that!"

"This author has several completed works."

Bai Qiu couldn't help but defend himself.

"For example, those books like 'Your Name,' 'I Want to Eat Your Pancreas,' and 'Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day'..."

"But...but those are all depressing works that make people very sad after reading them."

Goto Ichiri suddenly said that, already feeling pessimistic, she felt even more hopeless about life after seeing these things.

"Hey? You read Ichiri too? Now that I hear that, this author is actually a bit... well, you know!"

Hongxia commented.

Bai Qiu wanted to cry but had no tears.

He wanted to say that it was all just a coincidence!

He was only thinking about making quick money, and to make quick money, he wanted to write short stories that were suitable for being adapted into movies.

He also remembers his short stories quite clearly and was able to finish them easily.

I really had no intention of stabbing anyone!

After adjusting her breathing slightly, Bai Qiu continued.

"But these works have all received very good reviews."

"That's true."

This time, Yamada Ryo did not refute.

Bai Qiu finally found some solace.

"Oh right, Hongxia, this is for you."

I don't know where Yamada Ryo pulled out another photo frame from, and handed it to Nijika.

Upon seeing the figure inside the frame, Hongxia was shocked.

"Don't kill people indiscriminately!"

Wait, Hongxia, that's not what you just said.

This time, the person in the frame is a black and white photograph of Kita Ikuyo.

Kita Ikuyo's face in the photo is still beaming with her sunny smile.

“I heard from the store manager that your guitar and lead vocals career has ended, so I made one for you too.”

With a helpless expression, Ichiji Nijika covered the photo frame and put it away.

When Bai Qiu discovered that Xi Duo also had it, he felt much better.

But Kita hasn't seen it yet!

We absolutely must find an opportunity to let Kita see it with his own eyes!

Goto Hajime's face turned pale: Ryo-kun, how terrifying, you sentenced two people to death so easily.

To avoid getting too hung up on this topic.

Bai Qiu quickly interjected, "So, Liang, your musical soul died because this author stopped updating?"

Yamada Ryo nodded. "Yes."

Nijika Ichi's face paled. She was shocked that such a reason had affected the bond between her and Ryo.

She thought there would be some other, more legitimate reason.

Hongxia couldn't help but feel a mixture of curiosity and slight resentment towards the author named "He Huohuo".

"So, as long as this author... cough, updates, your musical soul can be resurrected?" Bai Qiu said.

Yamada Ryo blinked. "Probably, maybe, probably?"

"Give me a definite answer!" Hongxia shouted.

"Anyway, that author can't be brought back to life."

Yamada Ryo wiped away non-existent tears.

Bai Qiu smiled and said, "That's not necessarily the case."

It seems that in order to get Yamada Ryo to pick up the bass again, he has no choice but to make a comeback.

All three looked at Bai Qiu with curiosity.

"As mentioned earlier, I am also reading this author's books."

Yamada Ryo nodded, still feeling that Bai Qiu was making excuses for this hateful author.

"And then, actually, I have a friend..."

"This friend's parent works at the same publishing house as Teacher He Huohuo, so they have some inside information."

"Although it's inside information, it's almost certainly true. Teacher He Huohuo will be updating next month."

"So, Liang, can you play bass later?"

"Really?" Goto Ichiri and Iji Chikatsu Natsumi's hopes were rekindled.

One reason is that they feel they can see the later chapters, and the other is that they feel cool and can play bass again.

Bai Qiu nodded confidently.

Yamada Ryo calmly replied, "What if there are no updates?"

Bai Qiu was taken aback. As expected of Liang, he was so calm that he didn't even take the bait.

Bai Qiu rolled her eyes and said again:

"If there are no updates, I'll give you a book signed by Teacher Youhe Huohuo."

For Bai Qiu, signing an autograph was just a simple matter.

Yamada Ryo's eyes lit up.

This seems feasible.

Signed copies can fetch a lot of money on the secondhand market!

Whether the author is still around or not seems unimportant; in fact, it's more like...

Would it be better if it were gone? This way, the signature would be more valuable.

Yamada Ryo quickly replied.

Chapter 17 is simply about being born in an era without me…

Yamada Ryo's answer delighted Ichiji Niji Natsumi.

Liang has experience in bands and has performed on stage many times.

If the show is well-received, tonight's performance will definitely satisfy the audience.

And it also surprised her sister greatly.

"Great! It's cool!"

Nijika excitedly opened her arms, just as Yamada Ryo thought Nijika was going to give her a hug.

Hongxia approached Bai Qiu and bowed deeply.

"Thank you so much, Bai Qiujun. Thank you for persuading Liang. I don't know how to thank you enough."

Hongxia blushed and looked at Bai Qiu, as if to say, "Is there anything I can do?"

"It's nothing," Bai Qiu said calmly.

After all, in a way, he might be the culprit behind Yamada Ryo's obsession with light novels.

"Be sure to let me know if you need any help."

Hongxia said earnestly again.

Bai Qiu nodded.

Hongxia then looked at Liang and asked, "By the way, Liang, where's your bass?"

Yamada Ryo went back to his room to get his bass.

Hongxia couldn't help but worry: would Bai Qiu lose the signed copy of the book to Liang?

In that case, wouldn't it be better for her to stop it at the last minute?

Hongxia looked somewhat embarrassed.

Seeing this, Bai Qiu asked, "What's wrong, Hong Xia?"

Hongxia replied, "Wouldn't a signed copy of Bai Qiujun's work be very valuable?"

So that's what Hongxia was worried about.

Bai Qiu smiled mysteriously: "I have quite a few autographed copies."

“Eh… is that so?”

Hongxia was somewhat surprised, but also relieved.

When Ichiri Toto heard this, he was startled.

I accidentally fell into a pile of cold books.

"Ouch!"

She also wanted a signed copy.

Goto Ichiri made a noise, and Nijika quickly helped her up.

"Are you alright? Yili."

"Ah, it's okay..."

Nijika helped Goto Ichiri up and then helped her pick up her guitar bag.

At this moment, Hongxia suddenly realized that there shouldn't be any bands in Yili, right?

Look at this child, so shy and timid.

"By the way, can you join my band?"

If only we had a guitarist like Ichiri.

If Liang agrees again, her band will begin to take shape!

"Ah... ah ah..."

Goto Ichiri's physical instincts almost made her answer "Yes, sir" directly.

Fortunately, it stopped in time.

"Don't be so nervous, Yili."

"Oh no, I've already agreed to form a band with Bai Qiu."
