Loneliness and Rock and Roll with Band Observer

She did see the strange visitor standing behind her.

However, due to the difference in height and posture between the two, the first thing she saw was not the face, but the astonishing size of the breasts wrapped in the off-shoulder top, which almost occupied her entire field of vision at this moment...

Frightened, Qiu Hui stood up from her chair in response, stood facing the other person, and greeted him politely.

“You… who are you?”

Qiu Hui looked at the other person with fear and trepidation. If she had turned her head a little more, she might have hit the other person's airbag directly.

"Ah, why are you so nervous?" The visitor put his hands on the back of the chair and leaned forward slightly, showing a playful smile, "Don't look at me like this, I'm actually a high school student too, you know? Although I've skipped too many classes recently, the teacher may have almost forgotten what I look like... But that kind of thing doesn't matter!"

"High... high school student?"

Qiu Hui looked at the other person's charming face anxiously. Is she really a high school student?

Because the other person is nearly 1.7 meters tall, Qiu Hui can just see the other person's bold neck area and soft shoulders when looking straight at her. Further up is the slender neck surrounded by a decorative black neck ring; Qiu Hui, who has unexpectedly rich experience in paper, can see the subtle hints contained in it at a glance.

Are today's high school students actually...dressing up like this?

"Yes! I'm a high school student, right? It's real! Do you want me to show you my student ID? Sorry, I can't do that." The visitor with a bold dress style smiled enthusiastically, "I often show my face on the Internet, so I don't want people to know my real name. But I am a high school student, I can guarantee that."

Do you often show up on social media?

This statement caught Qiu Hui's attention.

Is the other person a celebrity? Is he also an artist? Is he here to discuss cooperation with the agency this time?

At this moment, Kita suddenly slapped the table and stood up: "By the way! You are Meow Mengqin, right?"

Meow Dream? Probably referring to the name...

...wait, have I heard a similar pronunciation somewhere?

After pondering for a moment, Qiu Hui felt that it was probably her illusion.

I don’t remember any acquaintance of mine with such an exaggerated figure who is also working in self-media.

"Oh! There's no reward but I guessed it right!" The visitor, whom Kita called "Nyan Dream Darling", smiled and stretched out his hand, then struck a pose that seemed like his signature move, "Good morning, meow meow! Today I recommend to you a high school girl band that's been very popular recently!"

That... is probably the business status in the video, right? Qiu Hui guessed.

The other party showed that he could control himself and soon regained control of his emotions.

Then, Miao Meng smiled at everyone and began to introduce her purpose: "I am here today to discuss business cooperation with the adults at Zou Pro. After all, I am a fashion blogger, and my target audience is mainly high school girls. I have a surprisingly good relationship with Zou Pro, which focuses on high school girl groups. This is the so-called high school girl COMBO!"

"What a coincidence! I have also tried the product you recommended, and the effect is really good!" Kita's eyes lit up and he seemed quite excited.

Fashion blogger?

Only then did Qiu Hui remember where that familiar feeling came from.

Miao Meng... seems to be the beauty blogger that Ain recommended to me before?

Although I have no time to research cosmetics recently, after watching her videos, I was somewhat impressed.

"Nice to meet you." Qiu Hui nodded and greeted briefly.

"It's actually me who should say nice to meet you." Miao Meng smiled, "When I came here to discuss cooperation today, I happened to notice that the meeting room nearby was very busy. After asking around, I found out! It was the signing meeting for the band! And all the members were in attendance!"

Miao Meng's beautiful face, which was full of mature charm, now showed a lively, even childish expression.

"I happened to see the debut performance of STARRY some time ago. How should I put it? It was like something that touched my heart! Although there were various problems, I was very satisfied with the overall result, so I became a fan of the band!"

As she said this, she pulled out a stack of sticky notes and a pen from her waist bag.

"It's fate that we meet in this kind of place! Could you please sign an autograph for me? Please, please!"

Miao Meng acted like an excited little fan at the moment. This enthusiastic and lively attitude complemented her mature and charming temperament in a strange way.

Chapter 92: Miao Meng’s Response

The first person to get the sticky note and the pen was Kita.

It seemed that she had known Miao Meng through video for a long time, and she signed her name happily.

"What a beautiful signature, worthy of being Yuko! Thank you!" Miao Meng nodded with a smile, and added a strange suffix to the name without permission, "It's different from the voice when speaking. When singing, the voice has a calm and cheerful feeling. I like it very much!"

Kita seemed to be very happy to be given a strange nickname. It seemed that she had a strong resentment towards the name "Ikuyo".

"The next one is Hongzi!" Miao Meng tore off another note and handed it to Hongxia, "It must be difficult for a girl to play drums, right? Your performance on stage was wonderful, you really worked hard."

"Well, it's okay. You'll get used to it after playing for a while." Hongxia smiled and signed a rather simple signature and handed it to Miaomeng.

Miao Meng accepted the autograph and thanked him sincerely, then casually said, "Actually, I've been thinking about buying an electronic drum set recently..."

She didn't dwell on the topic for long, but quickly moved on to the next member.

"And the bassist Ryoko-san..."

As she spoke, Miao Meng suddenly revealed a subtle expression.

She seemed to be unsure how to praise a bassist in a sincere way, so she gave a slightly apologetic smile.

“…I’m sorry, as an outsider, I don’t know how to evaluate the bassist’s performance because I couldn’t really hear it.”

Generally speaking, even if you take Miao Meng's bright smile into consideration, this sentence is really rude.

But, if the target is that Yamada Ryo...

Liang just nodded indifferently and said, "It's okay, I don't mind. Rather, I kind of enjoy this feeling of lurking in the shadows..."

She really didn't mind. After saying that, she casually left her signature to Miao Meng.

Qiu Hui, who was observing from the side, suddenly became serious.

This fashion blogger with a proud figure said some very thoughtful compliments to Kita and Hongxia, but they were mostly polite.

However, what she said to Liang was ironic.

If the other person is not cold, it is not surprising that this statement would be regarded as a malicious attack. From the perspective of social etiquette, it is a fatal mistake.

She shouldn't have made such a low-level mistake...

...Could it be that she said this based on her clear understanding of Liang's personality?

This possibility made Qiu Hui feel a little numb.

If she had only seen the premiere, how did she know everyone's personalities so well?

Miao Meng did not notice Qiu Hui's mental activities, but continued to ask everyone for autographs as she pleased.

"Next is Ms. Ichiriko on lead guitar!" She looked at Goto Ichiri who remained silent. "It's amazing that they could play like that! I was so excited when I watched it. I was very impressed. I never thought a high school band could do that!"

"Me? Ah... Well, thank you..." Ichiri, who was given a strange nickname, replied in a daze.

She had been absent-minded since just now, and Miao Meng seemed to have noticed this.

Therefore, after accepting Yili's signature, she simply thanked him and did not try to talk to him or say anything else.

In this way, Miao Meng has already secured the live direct signing of the remaining four members of the band.

Finally, she turned around and faced Togawa Akie.

"Finally, the keyboard player, Akiko-sensei."

Her tone calmed down a bit, not as lively and exaggerated as before.

"...The feeling on stage and off stage seems to be different."

Miao Meng's gaze moved all the way down from Qiu Hui's lowered brows, across her exposed collarbone and her clenched hands in front of her body, to her feet that were subconsciously put together because of nervousness.

Qiu Hui felt a little uncomfortable under her scrutiny, partly because of the inexplicable familiarity, and partly because of her subtle response to the situation.

Noticing Qiu Hui's uneasiness, Miao Meng's attitude became slightly restrained.

"Was I a little too close just now?" She continued in a slightly apologetic tone, "Sorry, did I scare you?"

She was probably referring to the way she appeared before by leaning her head on the back of a chair without permission.

"It's okay, don't worry about it." Qiu Hui shook her head.

Miao Meng's attitude seemed to suddenly become calmer... or perhaps gentler.

Although she didn't quite understand the reason, Qiu Hui was slightly relieved by the other party's restrained behavior.

Since the other party is an anchor who is here to discuss business cooperation, in a sense he can also be considered a colleague.

After realizing this relationship, she calmed herself down a little and assumed a businesslike attitude again.

Qiu Hui first took the note, and then signed the pen name "Akirako" in a very neat manner, just like writing her name on a test paper.

"You just mentioned 'Akiroko-sensei'. Excuse me, but have you ever read my work?"

After handing the signature to the other party, she asked casually.

"…I've read it." Meow Meng smiled and nodded, "I especially like the character of the imaginary friend 'M-chan'."

The other party's meaningful smile when he said this made Qiu Hui feel even more uneasy.

"I see. Thank you for your support for the band and me personally." She suppressed her distracting thoughts and continued, "Since Ms. Meow Meng is planning to cooperate with the Zou Society, there may be a chance for us to meet again in the future. Please give me your advice, and if it is convenient, please exchange contact information with me."

Qiu Hui gave a polite smile and controlled the urge to look around.

The off-shoulder top with the hip skirt and the legs that were too long for a high school student. Qiu Hui had only seen this kind of exaggerated model figure in pictures before.

As a result, such a person actually stood in front of him...

This was too much of a stimulation for Qiu Hui, who was troubled by some thoughts in her mind.

She tried hard to calm herself down so as not to do anything too rude.

"I'd love to." Miao Meng smiled and took out her cell phone.

After adding each other as friends and saving each other's phone numbers, Qiu Hui put away her phone.

The name Miao Meng is a nickname, and the social media accounts she provided do not seem to be for private use.

Is she the type who keeps work and reality separate? Qiu Hui doesn't hate this.

"We've gained a lot today. I think everyone has their own things to do next, right? I won't bother you anymore. Bye!"

Before leaving, Miao Meng regained her lively attitude. She smiled and waved to everyone, then turned and left.

He really comes and goes without a trace, Qiu Hui thought.

Although I don’t know why the other party is a little reserved only in front of me, from his behavior, it seems that he really doesn’t know me.

...That's right. If I knew someone with this style, it would definitely leave a deep impression on me, and I can't possibly not remember it now.

In high school, I knew almost no one except Aine, Deng, and Xiangzi. Most of my friends in junior high school were gloomy people, and there was no one like Miao Meng.

It must be an illusion, Qiu Hui concluded in her heart.

She stopped thinking about it and turned her attention back to her fellow band members who were finishing up the band.

Chapter 93: Successful Ending

The appearance of Miao Meng seemed to be just an insignificant episode.

After she left, everyone continued to sit and kill time in the cafe.

"He is really a person with unique personality." Akie exclaimed.

"She's very friendly." Kita said with a smile, "I think she's even prettier in person than in the video!"

"It's rare to see high school students who go this route." Ryo said in a tone as if he were evaluating an electronic product.

"You have an outstanding sense of fashion, Ms. Meow." Hong Xia sighed, "I feel like you would have a bad relationship with someone like Pochi-chan?"

Goto Ichiri realized that the topic had been thrown to him and nodded slightly: "Indeed. The fashion aura is too strong. I don't seem to dare to speak in front of her..."

The sudden appearance of Meow Dream briefly became the topic of conversation, but this did not last long.

As the conversation gradually shifted to other topics, everyone soon found other topics.

After an unknown amount of time passed like this, the agent, Ms. Yazawa, appeared in front of everyone.

She was carrying a briefcase and said to Qiu Hui, "Thank you for your hard work this morning."

Afterwards, she informed everyone who had finished the band of the outline of the afternoon’s meeting.

"... All in all, the situation is pretty good." Yazawa Hitoshi concluded, "The draft of the contract has been adjusted according to everyone's ideas, but there is no need to rush to make a decision. The agency said that if necessary, the official signing can be done no later than July 26th. By that time, everyone should be on summer vacation, right? So there will be plenty of time to consider, and there is no need to be too impatient."
