Don't be afraid, I've truly come to bring you happiness.

The director turned to look at Lin Yuanshan, only to find that he had already sat down next to the teleprompter operator.

"do not care!"

The director gritted his teeth,

"Release their music video first, and let's delay it for as long as possible!"

On the large screen on the stage, the band's introductory video began to play.

The scene begins with a thick book, "The Complete Biography of Emperor Wu of Wei".

In the picture, the Ijichi sisters are sitting behind the bar, quietly reading a book.

A voice-over narration begins:

"Hello everyone, I'm Nijika Ijichi from STARRY. Our band's story begins here..."

Next, there's a shot of Liang, showing her going on a shopping spree in a dessert shop.

Voice-over:

"So, your production team will reimburse me, right? That's good. I'm Ryo Yamada, bassist."

Then the art style suddenly changed, and it became Kita.

"Thunderbolt of Divine Severance! Twenty Consecutive Strikes!!!"

"shark!"

"shark!"

"shark!"

Finally, there's Pochi.

The scene is at the foot of Tokyo Tower at night.

Heavy rain, guitar, fanatical believers, and a police officer flipping his hair.

"Look! The performance by Pochi the Devil is giving Tokyo Tower an absolute blast!!!"

After the music video finished playing, the entire audience fell silent.

Normal people, gigolos, evil spirits, demons.

Is this what the band is made up of?

So weird!

The host was sweating profusely and forced himself to find a topic to talk about:

"What were our judges' first impressions of this band?"

Chuhua immediately answered:

"That's a powerful [Severing God Thunderbolt], it has three-tenths of my power!"

host:

"So, Miss Chuhua is also from the martial arts side?"

Mortis:

"That guitarist's playing was very powerful!"

host:

"Power from hell?"

Xiangzi:

"I feel like I see familiar faces in this band."

host:

"I'm very curious about what kind of outrageous acquaintance it is."

Teacher DaMiao:

"Hongxia's makeup skills have improved."

host:

So you all knew each other before?

Oh no, I've lost my composure!

He took a deep breath, ready to save the day:

"So, after watching the music video, the band has been waiting backstage for quite some time... What!?"

Halfway through his speech, the director's voice came through his earpiece:

"Try to buy some time, they haven't arrived yet!"

host:

"Ahem, let's start by introducing this band in detail."

"Lead vocalist, Ikuyo Kita; guitarist, 158cm tall, 44kg, 16 years old, blood type A."

ten minutes later.

host:

Backstage.

The teleprompter operator, sweating profusely, said to the director:

"Director, I've copied all the entries from Moe Girl Encyclopedia, I'm really out of work!"

"This is a direct order!"

The director shouted,

"Keep it going! Even if you have to make it up, keep making it up!"

Just then, a hand gently patted the staff member's shoulder.

It is Lin Yuanshan.

He opened his mouth and said:

"I noticed you were reading some leisurely books just now."

The staff member stammered:

"That was because..."

Lin Yuanshan:

"Stop explaining, just bring me that book."

on the stage.

host:

Why are you out of words? Do you expect me to improvise?

"Ahem, actually our closing band has been waiting backstage for quite a while, so why haven't they come on stage yet? The reason is..."

The teleprompter suddenly flashed.

The host finally found his savior and confidently continued:

"The reason is that the Golden Lion King suddenly unleashed—no, Kita Ikuyo—a move that is the Seven Injury Fist, the signature technique of the Kongtong Sect. As the saying goes, 'One strike injures seven, and all seven are injured.'"

What the hell!

What are you doing, teleprompter?!

Meanwhile, in the background

The staff member in charge of the teleprompter was frantically typing away on the keyboard while holding a copy of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber".

stage.

The director's voice in the earpiece sounded somewhat abnormal.

"Great, keep going! The ratings have even gone up!"

The host continued helplessly:

"Goto Ichiri remained calm and composed, and with both palms he used the Hunyuan Shenxuan technique to unleash the Qiankun Great Shift."

"In an instant, the backstage area was filled with ghostly figures, and the entire place was filled with the shadows of Goto Ichiri!"

At this moment, at Poch's home.

The Goto couple, his sister Jiri, and the family dog ​​were staring blankly at the television.

Goto Jiri muttered to himself.

"Sister...when did you go to Bright Summit for further studies?"

Poch's father looked grief-stricken.

"Is this some kind of internal conflict within the band? We don't want that kind of thing!"

Chapter 84 Was all of this planned by you?

"...At the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, in the Tomb of the Living Dead, Xiduoboqi has vanished from the world!"

"Kita!"

"Pochi!"

"Pochi!"

"Kita!"

"Pochi, what happened to your hand!"

"Kita, with you here, what difference does it make whether I have hands or not?"

On stage, the host acted like a storyteller under a bridge.

He was reading the gibberish from the teleprompter, his shirt already soaked with sweat.

"Supervisor Lin, what should we do? Some viewers have already complained to headquarters! I can't take it anymore!"

"Supervisor Lin?"

The director searched all the staff on set but couldn't find Lin Yuanshan.

Until he suddenly looked up and stared at the stage.

A powerful drumbeat rang out,

Thick white fog from dry ice engulfed the stage.

The spotlight tore through the fog, revealing two figures in the beam of light.

One of them was a masked drummer wearing an eye patch and sporting a golden ahoge (cowlick).

The other one is a tall, masked guitarist and lead singer wearing a red muscular bodysuit.

then……

It's gone.

On the huge stage, the bass and another guitar stood alone in the empty space, as if it were yet another farce.

The audience in the audience was confused, and viewers in front of their televisions were also thrown into chaos.

Is this really not a performance accident?

On stage, Xingge, wearing an eye patch, whispered behind Lin Yuanshan:

"Is this really okay? I remember you only know how to play C chords on the guitar."

She and Lin Yuanshan arrived at the scene early today, luckily avoiding traffic congestion.

Unfortunately, he was dragged into this even more outrageous farce.

Xingge plays Hongxia, and Lin Yuanshan plays Xiduo.
