Looking at his drum, Lixi decided to practice at home.

Although there was no training camp.

However, if Deng calls everyone to train that day...

I can't let myself down.

After all, what if we make a mistake?

"Huh? Wasn't Riki wrong too? Why are you talking about me?"

Ah, what if Chihaya Aine discovers that I'm wrong in front of the light?

That would be incredibly embarrassing for me.

Goo!

Practice, practice!

If the lamp could hear its own skillful drumming, it would feel at ease.

P.S.: Ms. Lixi is actually very gentle. She keeps putting pressure on herself and others, but she secretly modifies the sheet music so that Aine is not too difficult to play.

But why not say it?

SOYO is right.

Important things are always left unsaid.

I want everyone to be happy, but nobody is happy.

Hey, Lixi, hey.

Chapter 16 Cat: Bullying! Someone's bullying me!! Someone's secretly enjoying themselves without including me!

In the spacious practice room, even the sound of a guitar accidentally hitting the floor seemed exceptionally ethereal, and the mirror opposite allowed one to see their face while facing the wall.

In the past, when everyone was present.

Although I really don't want to admit it, I never mention it.

However, Ai Yin has always recognized Le Nai's guitar skills.

A band is something that consists of mutual understanding, support, and growth.

So if you make a mistake, but there are no problems with the overall issues and rhythm, it's not that obvious!

It's like when everyone suddenly stands up and sings the school song. Even if the principal comes to listen, as long as you open your mouth and hum along with everyone, you'll undoubtedly pass the test.

however.

If the principal asks everyone to come one by one...

Isn't that what I am?

The key is.

Whether it was the lamp or Xiangzi, whom he had just fooled, they were all looking at him with the same eyes one would give a guitar master.

. . . . . .

In the empty room, all by himself, he plays the guitar, accompanying the lamplight.

If you play the wrong note, play too few notes, or even don't press the string down hard enough.

The way the two people who stopped looking over at that moment.

The lamp looked disappointed, and Xiangzi looked at himself with confusion.

. . . . . .

Chihaya Aine had already imagined how embarrassing she would be in that moment.

Why did you follow me?

Why did I have to come and bother them?!

Ah! I really am!

Like a criminal awaiting trial in an interrogation room.

Like Detective Conan, the lamp gradually peels away its inner self.

However, physical torture is nothing to worry about.

The one most likely to attack itself.

Aiyin looked to the side.

Wearing the Haneoka school uniform with a short skirt, she obediently stood with her legs together, her schoolbag resting on her lap, her hands carefully holding it. Her blue twin ponytails swayed gently as she tilted her head.

Wait until your eyes look over there.

She was also waving her little hands playfully, cheering herself on.

His eyes were full of anticipation.

It's like those friends from my old school who said Ai Yin was the best.

children.

Aine is definitely the best.

It can do almost anything!

But this is simply impossible!

Others' expectations are like a knife!

If a newly made friend discovers that you are a vain person who likes to be praised and noticed, but actually doesn't know anything.

I can do it myself.

"Go for it, Ai-yin!" Xiangzi waved his hand and clenched his fist! "I'll be looking forward to Ai-yin and Deng's song! I'll definitely remember it and listen to it over and over again!"

Yomeiro!!

Bearing the hopes of Xiangzi and Deng.

Ai Yin had no choice but to hold the scorching hot guitar.

Hey, guitar, respond to me! Guitar god! If I can convince everyone I'm a guitar virtuoso, I might as well become the lead singer of a band!!

The guitar god!!

"Cough, cough, I haven't practiced the piece much, so I'm a little rusty. Let me see, I'll be right back!"

"Hey, but, Aine-chan, isn't this the song I wrote for you?" Akari looked at Aine.

Everyone even went on stage to perform this song together!

Why am I so unfamiliar with it?

"Uh!" Ai Yin looked at the lamp, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Are you suggesting I'm patching up my own game? If I don't play it well, I can just say I'm not familiar with it.

The problem now is the way the light is looking at us.

Don't be so down.

I've actually watched it countless times and played it countless times.

However, errors still occur.

I don't know why, but sometimes my fingers don't obey me. I know where to press, but I easily make mistakes and can't press down properly.

I really did study and practice diligently.

"Hmm, Deng, were you afraid when you went on stage to sing before?" Xiangzi asked quickly, looking at Deng's sullen expression.

"Oh? I'm afraid! If I don't sing well, if I don't sing the lyrics, if I forget the lyrics, then I'll be sorry to everyone."

"Aine is the same way. The songs written for Aine are the same way Aine treats the songs written by Tohru. So, she subconsciously worries that she won't play them well, even though she has practiced them many times! Right, Aine!"

Xiangzi looked at Aine and noticed that there were obvious calluses on her hands!

Moreover, the way she took the sheet music out of her bag was too practiced, even placing it on the outermost layer.

"You must have practiced really hard! So, it's not that you didn't take it seriously! On the contrary, you took it extremely seriously!"

The lamp looked at him with obvious happiness, admiration, and even a little embarrassed by how he had been treated.

She had been hoping for attention and praise, and subconsciously responded with her love voice.

"Of course!! Actually, I've practiced dozens of times! I can now play three parts flawlessly in five tries!"

A hopeful gaze under the lamplight.

Super cool Ai Yin couldn't help but look at Xiangzi, who was cheering her on from the side.

Ah, Xiangzi-chan who spoke up for me, I love you!!

"Leave it to me!" he said, picking up the guitar and standing in front of the glass.

After calming down in an instant.

Aine's eyes were filled with despair.

Subconsciously, I was flattered by the expectant looks in Xiangzi and Deng's eyes.

I agreed immediately.

Now that things have come to this, is it really impossible to reach a settlement?

This is no longer possible!

Haha! Then there's only one answer!

I will dedicate my life to shouting!

Guitar god, bless me!!!

"Aiyin?" Deng looked over, holding the microphone, as if he was ready.

Xiangzi waved the light stick that had been handed to him from the side.

Now that things have come to this, if the guitar god doesn't respond, is the only way to make Akari and Shoko feel moved for me again?

Ai Yin thought to herself.

Then, he plucked the guitar strings.

"pull!"

"Huh?" Aine heard a voice that didn't sound like she had imagined and subconsciously looked at the others.

Everyone looked at them with puzzled expressions.

"Um! I! My finger technique is fine! Why?"

The lamp was startled awake from its slumbering emotions, and a questioning gaze was already fixed on it.

I can assure you that this opening was correct! I haven't made any mistakes!

Even without Li Xi making the first move, I wouldn't have ended up like this at the beginning.

"It's okay, Ai-yin is still tuning, light!"

Xiangzi casually handed a metronome to Aiyin.

"Don't we need to tune the guitar before we start? Let's have Aiyin play it right away, and Aiyin will definitely need to tune it."

"Yes, yeah! That's right!" Ai Yin quickly said, sitting down and starting to adjust the sound.

After confirming the pitch, stand up.

The lamp was already immersed in its own emotions.

Pluck the guitar strings again!

"人知れず" (Alone in the dark)

"Shoulder falling on my shoulders" (You are dejected)
