Will the plagiarism girl be a substitute for the preference for women?

It seems that being by China's side is a must every time she goes live...

At this moment, there are still messages in the chat box from people who have bought data, and it is someone's alternate account using a unicycle.

[Managers, get to work!]

Following the earlier SC (Super Score), more viewers began calling for the accounts of these unicycle riders to be banned.

Xiangzi could already foresee that after these accounts were banned, they would use the excuse of "guilty conscience" to escalate their actions, and tomorrow's news would inevitably feature headlines such as "Questioning the serious control of comments after buying traffic."

But public opinion is always inevitable, so you have to manage the atmosphere in your own live stream first.

She moved the mouse cursor over the constantly scrolling comments, then turned back and gestured to Chizuru with her eyes.

At this moment, China reclines on the back of the chair to avoid having two faces in the camera, which could cause confusion during facial capture. The witch's expressions and facial angles may switch arbitrarily, as if in a frame-by-frame manner.

"Give me a response," she mouthed.

Xiangzi nodded slightly and continued speaking to the live stream audience.

"I think I still need to make a direct statement first regarding whether I have purchased traffic and whether I am an alternate account for other musicians."

"Newcomer, lucky." The keywords sent by Qian Nai popped up on Xiangzi's phone.

"I am a new singer, and I did not buy any subscriptions. I feel very lucky that my song has achieved such great success. Thank you again for listening to my song," Xiangzi said sincerely.

At this point, the [room manager] also started working. Of course, the room manager was Xiangzi's own account [Staff S].

She greeted the audience with a smile while quickly banning unicycles on her phone.

The [host]'s account naturally has the authority to ban, but banning "personally" would seem like they care too much about these negative comments, and would instead give these comments a sense of accomplishment in "gaining attention".

"There might really be someone pushing my traffic behind the scenes," China then sent a notification.

Xiangzi temporarily turned off the microphone, turned around and said firmly:

"No need, your song deserves your honor."

I turned the microphone back on, and a large SC (Small Cash) message appeared on the screen.

"Thank you SC..." Xiangzi was about to read SC's content when the cursor stopped on SC, leaving him momentarily bewildered.

Because the content is in Chinese.

When Qian Nai read the sentence aloud from behind, Xiangzi immediately realized what was happening and lip-synced to it.

No wonder China said she couldn't leave her spot; even if I'm filling in for her, she still needs a place to speak occasionally.

If Chika wasn't too weak right now, she would have liked to explain the origin of the song and then sing a verse.

After seeing a comment that resonated with the atmosphere, she tapped Xiangzi again and read it aloud.

"Haha...the early Versailles."

Xiangzi then lip-synced to the words again.

Simply reading along without understanding the meaning creates a strong sense of being a "puppet."

So while replying to other Japanese and English comments, she copied the two Chinese comments she had just sent onto the main screen, which was not visible to the viewers, and translated them using Google Translate:

[Who would have thought she would become number one on the Empire's rankings?]

[The early founders of the Palace of Versailles.]

Xiangzi looked on with a puzzled expression at the translation, and Qiannai behind him couldn't help but twitch her lips.

It seems that these words cannot be understood solely from their literal meaning, although the literal meaning of the translation may not be entirely accurate.

In short, let's keep our attention on the live stream for now.

"You continue your live stream later, I'm going out to make a phone call with Ai-yin," Qian-nai sent another message.

"I just told Aine that you're catching up on sleep." Xiangzi was genuinely worried that when there were more large Chinese donations later, she wouldn't know what to do without Qiannai by her side.

“I know, but I need to create an alibi. I can prove I’m not here by talking to Aine on the phone while also talking to the audience. If you had just pretended to be my voice and talked to Aine on the phone, you wouldn’t need to do this.”

Looking at the long string of messages, Xiangzi sighed softly, then gripped the armrests of the chair and sat back even further, covering Qiannai's entire thighs below, making it even more difficult for Qiannai to get away.

"Next time," Xiangzi mouthed.

Chapter 180 Twisting to the Limit

"Thanks SC: [Can you show me some other Live2D content?] Of course! Ta-da~ This is the magic to make cat ears appear, meow~"

Xiangzi continued to interact with the comments section vividly, her use of the virtual avatar seemingly innate and skillful.

China fell silent.

As Chika herself said, she needed to stay in the room to answer the Chinese comments.

The so-called alibi wasn't that important; it could be saved for the next live stream. Although she was somewhat obsessed with completing it, this obsessive thought ultimately succumbed to her depression and lack of energy.

"You can conjure up a cat's tail too, look!"

Xiangzi slightly reduced the size of the Witch Live2D and then moved the entire body out.

She made a "cat punch" gesture, then winked and gracefully swayed her shoulders and body, which the witch imitated.

"Meow~"

[AWSL]

[Not only an excellent singer, but also a top-notch mecha pilot]

In his immersive performance, Xiangzi's upper body twists and turns, pulling his lower body along with his center of gravity shifting from side to side between his legs on the [cushion], accompanied by slight rubbing and the sound of friction against his clothes.

Aside from being surprised by Xiangzi's dedication to his role, China had no other thoughts.

The despondency of a period of depression is indescribable... nothing is more intense than eating delicious food that is both visually appealing and aromatically delicious, while one is a mortal who has lost the ability to taste.

The delicate touch and slow caress of Bai Zhe's skin failed to ignite any primal impulses in the body. The squeezing and pressing created a feeling of confinement, while the mind yearned for languid expansiveness and freedom, letting thoughts drift. Poetry and distant places, the universe and the starry sky—all these grand themes were, in the hands of the languid and listless sage, extracted only abstract and vague imagery, serving as a sense of relaxation and transcendence, as if floating in the air.

A light poke on her thigh barely pulled China back from her drowsy state.

Watching the cursor rapidly move back and forth across a string of Chinese characters on the screen, she knew she needed to personally thank SC again.

Ah... I really can't read anymore.

"Thanks SC, the host knows Dongxue... but not."

After finishing her sentence, China peacefully lay back in her chair, while Shoko then responded to the questions raised in the comments section about her creative process when writing the song.

"As for the creative process, let's start by talking about Wayhome..."

Xiangzi also used Line to signal Qianna to give some prompts.

“It’s alright, your understanding is already deeper than mine,” China replied.

At least from the first meeting, seeing the detailed annotations of the Wayhome sheet music in Xiangzi's notebook, Qianna could make this conclusion.

Xiangzi pursed his lips helplessly, and then, based on his own understanding, he temporarily fabricated a story about his experience of self-studying music composition, which pop singers inspired him, and his creative process.

"As my first song, Wayhome, I hope it will have good popularity, collection rate, completion rate, and replay rate. These are all components that determine how much traffic to allocate when streaming media pushes it."

"My first thought was to put the catchy chorus in the intro."

"In this fast-paced era, when a song is pushed on a streaming platform, people may decide whether to add it to their playlist or skip to the next song after listening to just a dozen seconds of the beginning."

"Then I thought about how to make the melody of this song catchy, so that listeners would want to play it on repeat, while also making it relatively easy to cover."

"You can see that the background music popular on TikTok mostly has a BPM between 80 and 140. So I used this range as a basis to create a light and cheerful melody."

"Thanks to SC [What was your thought process when writing the lyrics?]"

The thought process behind writing lyrics... is difficult to analyze using general musical knowledge, unlike the thought process behind composing music.

When it comes to written words, a thousand people will have a thousand different interpretations of Hamlet; readers and authors will have vastly different understandings of the work.

Just like the description of a delicious dish in the article where "a strange light gleamed in the fish's eyes," when a college entrance exam question asked about the advantages of writing in this way, the author replied, "How can I know what I'm trying to express?"

Xiangzi poked Qiannai's leg again, but the latter didn't react at all. Turning her head, she half-opened her eyes, her expression detached, as if she didn't want to spare any energy to react to the outside world.

Seriously? Is there absolutely no way to cheer her up?

In the end, Chizuru simply shook her head, as if to say, "I don't know how I wrote it either."

Even if it's a genuine answer, it seems like a passive and perfunctory response to those who want to tip, failing to satisfy their curiosity and thirst for knowledge.

As a celebrity, you still need to have some ways to maintain your popularity. Even if your recent life is ordinary, you still need to make up some interesting stories to satisfy fans' desire to know more about their idol and to attract some new fans.

If I absolutely had to analyze the lyrics...

Xiangzi actually had some thoughts on the lyrics, but he was reluctant to express them.

"Wait a minute..." Xiangzi dragged the screenshot of the lyrics to the live stream interface. "Yeah, just like the new song I sang when I started the stream, it's all in English... A lot of people in the chat asked me what country I'm from. I'm obviously a witch from the demon realm, not from any particular country~"

"Because the common language of the world is English, we used English to fill in the lyrics."

"The following two lines are my own translation of the Chinese-Japanese lyrics. Translations in other languages ​​will be handled by the subtitle team. Translators are welcome to join the subtitle team!"

First, select some audience opinions on the lyrics, then echo them, saying things like, "When I wrote the lyrics, I wanted to bring this kind of experience to everyone," to satisfy the audience's sense of accomplishment in resonating with the singer.

[In that fragmented time, you clearly emerge, living and imprisoned within my lost heart.]

[...finally home]

……

"Lost in the journey..." Deng lowered his eyes slightly, looking at his phone screen and said in a low voice.

[The melody is clearly upbeat, but the lyrics are like lemonade, carrying a subtle bittersweet feeling.]

A SC popped up, and the witch on the screen naturally responded: "Yes, I was thinking about creating this kind of atmosphere when I was writing the lyrics - carrying the sorrow of a long separation, but still embarking on the journey home with hope."

After replying, the witch seemed to pause for a moment, and the lamp saw SC's avatar, which looked quite familiar.

?? and Su Shi have the same profile picture.

"Hey, Su Shi, did you send this SC?" Ai Yin asked curiously in the voice chat.

"No, I'm not used to paying for online content."

On the top floor of the building, in a dimly lit bedroom, only the faint light from outside shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Su Shi lay on her side on the bed, the light from her phone screen outlining the contours of her face with alternating light and shadow.

[When are you coming home?] On some kind of intuition, she sent another tentative SC message.

"Haha... Go back to the Demon Realm? I think staying in the human world is fine." Xiangzi cleverly used his virtual persona to answer the question.

Chapter 181 I think this is feasible

As the witch calmly replied with a smile, Xiangzi in front of the screen was already terrified, no less so than when he discovered Su Shi lurking at the entrance of Yuqiu School.

She only managed to avoid having her fear reflected in the witch's expression by specifically selecting the "Keep Smiling" template in Live2D.

Is this profile picture and the question "When are you going home?" just a coincidence?

If not... what was the reason she noticed it? Because she is usually good at using consonant sounds, so she can deduce the real voice from the professional voice?

Having reconciled with the lights and being willing to attend their performances, is this still not enough for Su Shi? It seems her obsession with the Crychic reunion is something even China can only barely match…

In short, the "alibi" that Chinai mentioned earlier, which I hadn't paid much attention to, is now an urgent solution that I have to implement.

"Sister, do you think Su Shi is the kind of person who would threaten to expose her identity in order to bring you back?"

Seeing Xiangzi's uneasy expression, Qianna sent him a message asking.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiangzi shook his head and replied, "It's not that bad."

She then held her breath for a moment to calm herself down and continued to immerse herself in the live stream of her virtual persona.

When asked about bands and songs in the comments, Xiangzi was very knowledgeable, offering insightful analyses of everything from band history to song interpretations. She was particularly enthusiastic about metal music and even mentioned her favorite bands.

These bands are not within China's range of interests, but since she is playing the role, let's just assume she's a character who enjoys the hobbies of two different people.

To be honest, seeing the numerous supportive comments and donations, apart from a very few malicious remarks, Xiangzi was quite immersed in it.

However, she still wanted to experience the audience's applause more authentically as "herself".

"Thanks SC: When will you release a new song?"

"By the way, a gothic metal band will be debuting soon, and I'll be involved in the arrangement."

"Is it that different from my current musical style? It would be nice to explore different aspects."

[Hexagonal Warrior]

"Thanks for the compliment."
