I live my life in Tokyo

Whether he was traveling by plane or by Shinkansen, he would always take the best approach to conserve his energy - he would fall into a coma-like sleep as soon as he sat down in his seat, without eating or drinking, and eliminating the possibility of going to the toilet.

This is how Kaede Sakakibara slept on the flight to and from Cuba.

The air conditioning in the Shinkansen was very strong. Asakura Toru sat opposite Sakakibara Kaede. She took out a neck pillow from her bag and leaned comfortably against the back of the chair.

Chizuru Ichinose didn't have such good equipment. She looked at Toru Asakura who was sitting opposite her, and glanced at the unconscious Kaede Sakakibara. Then she... leaned directly on the young man's shoulder.

Asakura Toru made a "wow" sound with his mouth and smiled with joy. Chizuru Ichinose blushed when she saw the look in Asakura Toru's eyes. Based on the principle of out of sight, out of mind, she quickly closed her eyes, buried her head in Sakakibara Kaede's shoulder, smelled the faint fragrance on the latter, and tried to fall asleep.

The studio booked a hotel for the actors and voice actors, but most of the people who checked in were studio staff. The actors and voice actors booked long-term hotels or B&Bs on their own, living with people they knew, while some lived alone to avoid being disturbed by outsiders while resting.

After arriving at Kyoto Station, everyone soon dispersed temporarily outside the station. It was impossible to carry a suitcase to the dubbing work, so the person in charge sent the specific location of the studio to everyone's mobile phone in the form of an email. After that, everyone said hello to each other and got on the car to leave.

The rental house that Toru Asakura rented was only a few JR stops away from his workplace. Perhaps considering Chizuru Ichinose's financial situation, she did not book a high-rise hotel. Instead, they took a train with their suitcases to Uji City, a city on the south side of Kyoto Prefecture, where Toru Asakura booked a rental house with three bedrooms and a living room.

Sakakibara Kaede carried the two girls' boxes over the threshold and breathed a sigh of relief. After entering the room, Asakura Toru took off his pure white socks and stretched his toes while looking for the air conditioner remote control.

Chizuru Ichinose also took off her socks. She didn't want to put on the black stockings in the suitcase in this kind of weather. She stretched her body as she had slept too soundly on the Shinkansen just now, and her body was a little stiff.

Kaede Sakakibara didn't have any requirements for the bedroom. Judging from the room layout, the sizes were all about the same, so he let them choose one first.

"Hmm... There's nothing in the fridge except instant coffee."

Chizuru Ichinose opened the refrigerator and checked it, then looked up and said, next to her was a young man who was also leaning over. This sense of distance made Chizuru Ichinose recall last year's summer vacation, when the warmth brought the two closer together.

"Are you going to buy groceries today, or just grab something to eat?" the girl asked in a low voice, like a gentle and virtuous housewife.

Sakakibara Kaede shook his head. "Let's go out to eat today. The Shinkansen has made everyone tired. We still have to work this afternoon. Let's use today as a transition to adapt."

and.

The young man looked at Asakura Toru, who was lying on the sofa with his shirt lifted up and facing the air conditioner. The corners of his mouth twitched. From this angle, he could see Asakura Toru's exposed abdomen - the latter noticed Sakakibara Kaede's gaze, blinked at him and gave him a wink.

Expecting Asakura Toru to cook? The cooking job should be left to Chizuru Ichinose.

He knew what life was like for Higuchi Madoka and Asakura Toru. Every day, Higuchi Madoka had to feed Asakura Toru, otherwise she would starve to death.

"I agree--"

Toru Asakura raised his hand, supporting the decision to dine out with both hands.

They had already chosen the bedroom, and Sakakibara Kaede pushed his suitcase into the room where he would live for two or three months. It was next to the window, and outside the window was a balcony corridor that he was very familiar with - when he opened the door, he saw that this balcony led directly to the other two bedrooms.

His bedroom was in the middle, sandwiched between the two again.

Kaede Sakakibara took out the laptop and took out the clothes and hung them in the closet. While he was busy, Toru Asakura and Chizuru Ichinose took a shower respectively, washed off the sweat on their bodies, and changed into clean clothes, as if they had been reborn.

"Feng Sang——"

Sakakibara Kaede heard a knock on the door, he opened the bedroom door, Asakura Toru and Ichinose Chizuru were standing in front of the door, the former walked in very naturally, "Come to visit."

"Hey, so this is how Kaede-san's bedroom is decorated." Chizuru Ichinose looked around curiously.

Asakura Toru was not so polite. She let out a "hehe" and lay down on the bed, hugged the pillow and put her face against it, feeling the coolness of the pillow.

Chizuru Ichinose sat on the bed, stroking her hands on the sheets.

"You two can switch bedrooms if you like."

"No need." Chizuru Ichinose quickly shook her head. She just came... to leave her scent on the bed.

But I didn't expect that Asakura Toru was even bolder than me. He held the pillow halfway between his arms and refused to let go no matter what.

Chapter 2: The ending of Tsundere and Leng Jiao is——

The afternoon work remained the same, not much different from that in Tokyo, except that the voice actors were required to talk to the staff with strong local accents and imitate the rhythm and tone of their speech.

Toru Asakura, Chizuru Ichinose and several other dubbing actors and voice actors were pulled into a small room like a class, and under the guidance of the staff, they worked hard to learn the charm of the country accent.

The same is true for Sakakibara Kaede, who voices Taki Tachibana. Half of the time he is his original self, and the other half he needs to speak with the accent of the woman whose body he has switched into.

It means that we have separate classes.

Shimazaki Nobunaga and Ishikawa Kaito did not have such worries. After finishing their work, they left the studio and went to the studio of the nearby Kyoto branch to take on other work.

The three of them had lunch on the Shinkansen. The studio was not as generous as the agency and did not offer a dinner service. Kaede Sakakibara's course ended early and she was the first to escape from the sea of ​​suffering.

He saw the message Chizuru Ichinose left him, saying that they didn't need to wait for dinner, as they would take care of it themselves after finishing their classes.

There was still some time before dinner, and Sakakibara Kaede didn't say anything final. After replying to her with an expression of encouragement, Sakakibara Kaede put away his phone and went outside to get some fresh air.

Of course, he didn't see the love that Chizuru Ichinose sent afterwards.

He soon regretted his decision and returned to the lounge after being exposed to the sun. He thought about it and then called Yuma Miura.

Not long after the phone rang, the other party answered the phone.

"Hey, hey, Feng, you're in Kyoto?"

"Just arrived this morning and just finished work this afternoon."

"Really? If you had told me earlier, I could have picked you up at the train station this morning."

Miura Yuuma laughed twice and continued, "Are you free this afternoon? The help I told you about before-"

"I don't have work this afternoon, so please send me the address."

"OK, let's meet and talk."

After Sakakibara Feng hung up the phone, he soon received an address sent by Miura Yuma. He copied the address onto the map and found that it was quite close to the rental house where he lived.

After taking a look at the summer day outside the window, the young man put on a baseball cap and sunglasses and stepped into the sunny land.

When changing to the subway, the young man found that there were more people wearing school uniforms on the subway. He remembered the conversation he had with Yuuma Miura before. The address he sent was the name of a high school, so his so-called counseling work must be there.

There is a long slope from the station to the school building. Now that summer vacation has not yet begun, the school is still quite lively inside and outside. The afternoon classes have just ended at this time, and students returning to their families are leaving the school. The same goes for those who need to attend private schools. Only students participating in club activities are still showing their youthful vitality on the playground.

Sakakibara Feng took a few looks. A young man like him who was dressed casually and wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap naturally attracted many curious and inquiring eyes of the students. The girls whispered to each other, guessing which female classmate's boyfriend was secretly dating outside of school. He naturally alerted the security guard at the door, who coughed a few times and came forward to talk to him.

After he said Miura Yuma's name, the security guard shook his head to indicate that he had never heard of it. Sakakibara Kaede thought about it and recalled the name of the senior mentioned by Miura Yuma.

"Are you here to visit Mr. Takisho? Then you have to go through the formalities."

"it is good."

This is also the basic operation required for people from the society to enter high school. After graduation, he returned to Sobu High School several times, so naturally there would be no disputes or anything because of this procedure.

After taking the indoor slippers handed by the security guard, Sakakibara thanked him and walked into the campus. He once again tasted the youthfulness and enthusiasm of high school students, which made Sakakibara sigh. He wished he could live his high school life again, not the dramatic one in TV dramas, but the ordinary and daily high school life that belonged to Sakakibara.

I only spent three months at Sobu High School, and to be honest, I feel like I lost out.

After calling Yuuma Miura again and informing him of his location, a cheerful young man with golden shoulder-length hair ran down the stairs in the surprised eyes of the students, grinning and greeting Sakakibara Kaede who was standing in front of the teaching building.

"Ah - Feng, you're here so fast."

“Is this where you work?”

"Well... I'm here for now. It seems like we'll have to do some training after the summer vacation..."

Yuuma Miura grumbled, but he quickly threw those uncertainties out of his mind. He strode forward and patted Kaede Sakakibara on the shoulder. After a moment, he showed a playful smile, "If I take off your sunglasses and baseball cap here, I wonder what will happen?"

"Don't."

"Haha."

It wasn't a long meeting, just a week. Yuma Miura was immersed in the field of music. Apart from discussing music band matters, he also played Sword Art Online with Kaede Sakakibara.

"Well, why don't you introduce this so-called 'job'?"

"In short, we need to serve as reference consultants for the wind band of this school, Kitauji High School, to help them improve their musical level and prepare for the upcoming Kansai Tournament."

"I feel like you're really suitable for this job."

Sakakibara Kaede nodded, and Yuma Miura smiled and took the young man up the stairs. The corridor was full of students preparing to participate in club activities. They walked towards their respective destinations in twos and threes. Yuma Miura knocked on the office door with a smile.

Sakakibara Kaede took off his sunglasses and baseball cap, combed his hair to make it naturally fluffy, and followed Miura Yuma into the office.

"Taki-senpai, this is my friend, the lead singer of World Shine, the cornerstone of the band, actress Sakakibara Kaede."

Feeling that this introduction prefix is ​​a bit too much, Sakakibara Kaede stepped forward, looked at the gentle man in front of him wearing a pair of glasses, and stretched out his hand with a natural smile on his face, "Hello, my name is Sakakibara Kaede, please call me Sakakibara. Although I don't know what kind of help I can bring to the Kitauji wind band, I will do my best."

"Don't be so nervous."

The man called Taki-senpai stretched out his hand and shook hands with Sakakibara Kaede. "I'm glad to meet someone that you, my junior, are so full of praise for. Well, I'll just call you Sakakibara then."

"Have you ever systematically learned to play a musical instrument before, Sakakibara-kun?"

Takisho noticed the calluses on Sakakibara Kaede's fingers. Although the young man now used a pick most of the time, the traces left by time were still difficult to erase in a short time - just like calluses appearing on the middle finger from holding a pen all the time.

"I once learned music scores and general music theory from my mother." Seeing the expectant smile on the man's face, Sakakibara Kaede tried hard to recall the past that she didn't think much about now, "I learned violin and piano when I was a child, and passed the eighth grade violin exam."

Yuuma Miura exclaimed, "Wow!" This is really a very low-key move. If Sakakibara Kaede hadn't said anything, who would have known that he had such a skill? Was he planning to play dumb and eat the tiger?

Sakakibara glanced at Yuma Miura and shrugged. This is a souvenir on the bookshelf. This is the glory of Sakakibara in the past, and also the memory of him and his deceased mother. Sakakibara inherited the certificate just for fun, without any practical significance. He did not specialize in music, so this certificate can only be regarded as a thing placed in the original him, and naturally he will carry his thoughts and love with him.

Takisho nodded with a smile, motioning for the two to sit down, using a more relaxed tone. This was not a communication between a teacher and a student, but more like a communication between peers who were both music lovers.

"This time I would like to ask for your help in the coordination and teamwork between the various sections. Although Kitauji's wind band has successfully entered the Kansai competition, it is still a long way from the gold medal."

The young man nodded from time to time while listening. To put it bluntly, it was a team problem - it was easier to manage a band when there were three or four people. Everyone could just say whatever they wanted to say, such as Shining World or ending the band. Everyone in the band was a friend and confidant.

However, an orchestra has a large number of members. Professional orchestra members will hold their breath and hold their emotions in daily life so that they can cooperate perfectly during performances. But when the orchestra is composed of lively high school students, it is common for them to have their own plans.

Yuuma Miura's job is to be responsible for percussion instruments. Sakakibara Kaede definitely does not participate as often as Yuuma Miura. He also has work to do, so he is naturally responsible for less content. It is a matter of coordination between the various members of the orchestra. To put it bluntly, it is a bit like psychological counseling.

These are tasks tailored for them - they are not jobs or internships, but pure favors.

Yuuma Miura didn't expect anything, he just wanted to help his senior. Kaede Sakakibara was even less concerned, he just wanted to experience the high school atmosphere when he was free.

However, given Takisho's status in the music industry, it's a good thing that Miura Yuma is close to him. Maybe he can eventually become a professor at a music university, or the man sitting on the judges' panel at a national conference. It's a really beautiful ideal.

After listening to Takisho's request, Yuuma Miura and Kaede Sakakibara looked at each other and nodded at the same time, indicating that they had no problem at all.

The club activities of the wind band were about to start, so Takisho left first. Miura Yuuma raised an eyebrow at the young man, "Are you going to wear sunglasses later?"

"I'm wondering if it's necessary for me to join this club. After all, I'm a psychological counselor and a rope twister. Is it really necessary for me to listen to the performance of the wind band?"

"I think it is still necessary. Think about it, if you can't find the problem, how can you provide good psychological counseling?"

Sakakibara Kaede curled her lips, thinking that what Miura Yuma said was quite right.

He left a message to Toru Asakura and Chizuru Ichinose, saying that he would let them choose the dining table tonight and he might not be able to check his phone for a while.

When he was browsing the chat history of Line, he found several messages that he had not seen before. Most of them were wishing him a happy vacation in Kyoto. For example, Uehara Yo was very envious of his situation. He recently took on a new role and had to work every day during the summer vacation, which made him unable to leave Tokyo for a while. He said that this summer's fireworks could only be watched by him and Takeda Hiroshi.

The iron triangle is missing one member, and Uehara Yoshitomo feels lonely.

"How is work?"

When Sakakibara Kaede saw the message sent by Higuchi Madoka, he suddenly had an urge to laugh. Well, it was not that he was too bad, but he could imagine the awkward expression on the other person's face when Higuchi Madoka edited this message - it was really a rare thing for Higuchi Madoka to take the initiative to ask about him or care about him.

Although he seems indifferent, he actually cares very much in his heart, so this question seems so cold and indifferent, just like the surface of Higuchi Madoka, who is difficult to approach.

But Sakakibara Kaede knows the girl's inner world. In fact, she is also a shabby girl, a girl who is afraid of loneliness and afraid of change.

"Thank you for your concern. Yuanxiang, do you plan to come to Kyoto this summer? You can sleep in the same bedroom with Tou-san, or just sleep in my bedroom and I can sleep in the living room."

Putting down the phone, Sakakibara Kaede didn't expect the other party to reply immediately. After all, Higuchi Madoka might still be in school at this time. Unexpectedly, the phone vibrated as soon as she put it in her pocket.

"Mr. Pervert-san, who wants to sleep in your bedroom? Also, I'm not concerned about you, I'm just asking about work. After all, Asakura works with you, and I don't want her to be too tired."

The young man was speechless for a while. He seemed to see the tsundere girl with golden hair and twin ponytails when she was shooting the commercial at Toyosaki Academy. The other girl was acting tsundere, but what was Higuchi Madoka like? Was she being cold and coquettish?

Sakakibara Kaede found that having this kind of conversation with Higuchi Madoka was quite interesting. It made him feel like he was filming a scene that would lead to lifelong regrets, hehehehehehe.

However, he promised Higuchi Madoka when he spoke to her before that he would take the initiative.

"Yuanxiang, be careful when you are alone at home. Don't go home too late at night. Although the security in the Chuo District is very good, it is better to be safe than sorry. If Yuanxiang is free during the summer vacation, why not come to Kyoto for vacation with her two childhood friends? Fireworks are beautiful only when everyone gathers together. Do you remember the fireworks that bloomed in the countryside last summer?"

"I don't remember. Besides, I can manage my life by myself."

Seeing Higuchi Madoka's blunt words, Sakakibara Kaede grinned.

After seeing the words that she had to work and couldn't look at her phone for the time being, Higuchi Madoka lay weakly on the desk in the public library, her face slightly flushed, staring at the chat history sharply. She pursed her lips and changed her sitting position with her legs in black stockings.

While chatting, it was as if someone was gently tickling her heart, making her feel itchy, a little sweet, but sometimes sour.

How could she forget the fireworks in midsummer?

The colors of the fireworks blooming in the sky dyed the young man's profile colorful, and her inadvertent glance seemed like eternity.

There was a feeling of being seen through. Higuchi Madoka had a cold face, but the blush on her face did not disappear for a while. She was seen through by Feng, but did she see through Feng?

Indeed, she wanted to tear all his clothes to shreds, lick his heart, look down at him from above, and see what was in his mind.

Sakakibara Kaede put down his phone, followed Miura Yuma's footsteps and walked towards the ensemble room of the wind orchestra, which was located at the end of the corridor. He peeked inside through the window and found that the members were holding their instruments and looking at Senior Takisho who was sitting in the conductor's seat.
