Teacher Daxiang, please teach me how to play Kasuga Shadow!

"Ayano-chan, are you free now?"

"what happened?"

Ayano was puzzled as she watched Xiangzi put away his textbooks and draft paper, then stand up with a very serious look on his face.

But she soon remembered what was going on.

"Oh...you want to record a song, right?"

"Well, Haruhi's accompaniment has

It’s already finished, so I thought I’d take advantage of the free time today and finish recording the song.”

"Sure, I also want to hear Xiaoxiang's singing."

"...What?" Xiangzi, who had just walked out of the room and was about to go to the workshop, was stunned when he heard this. He turned around and asked in confusion, "Aren't you singing?"

"This is a song I wrote for you. If you want to sing it, we'll definitely sing it together."

"I……"

"Don't worry." Ayano had seen through Xiangzi's inner worries. She was just afraid that her family would find out that she was not doing her job properly. "The sound of your singing voice has been modified by software and hardware, so it will definitely be different from your normal speaking voice.

Your family will never know that Xiaoxiang actually gave himself a silly nickname like "Vega" to perform online."

"I'll say it again, I'm not a chuunibyou, nor am I some... performing artist."

"Yes, yes, shall we start recording now?"

"and many more……"

When Ayano was about to follow her out, Xiangzi suddenly stopped her again, and then, under Ayano's puzzled gaze, walked back to the head of the bed in the room and took out several wigs of quite good quality from the drawer.

"What are you doing?"

"Real people appear on camera."

"Don't you want to be recognized?"

Xiangzi rolled his eyes and unhappily took out another mask from the top of the drawer. "Just put this on. Oh, and put on some makeup."

While thinking with his head down, Xiangzi was searching for something in the room.

Ayano could tell that these things were all bought by Xiangzi on the spur of the moment. After all, the wig was wrapped in a plastic sealed bag, the mask was unopened, and the cosmetics had not been used yet.

"Wait... you know how to put on makeup?"

"..." Xiangzi, who was about to push Ayano to sit in front of the dressing mirror, was also stumped by this question. "I don't think I'm very good at it. I only know some simple ones."

"Tsk, what an unreliable young lady."

Ayano shook her head, then snatched the makeup box and wig from Xiangzi's hand and threw them aside, then forcibly clamped Xiangzi's arm and fixed him in front of the dressing mirror.

The two of them just looked at themselves in the mirror and looked at each other, like a stunning painting of twins.

"If you want to pretend, then change your hairstyle."

The hairstyle change mentioned here is naturally not to re-weave Xiangzi's original twin ponytails, but to use a hairnet to gather Xiangzi's hair and then put on a wig.

However, when Ayano untied Shoko's hair tie and slowly pulled her long blue hair down with her fingers, she was still somewhat surprised by the different temperament of Shoko in the mirror.

If Xiangzi with twin ponytails is cute, then Xiangzi with loose hair looks very gentle and lovely.

Especially since Xiangzi seemed a little nervous at the moment because of Ayano's gaze, Ayano couldn't help but play with his soft hair a few more times.

"Have you had enough fun?"

"You're so anxious, let me teach you how to be a makeup master today."

After taking out the hair net and tying up Xiangzi's hair, Ayano selected a long straight black wig from a bunch of wigs and put it on Xiangzi's head.

Then she picked up the eyebrow pencil and started drawing eyebrows for Xiangzi.

But soon, Xiangzi felt something was wrong.

At first, Xiangzi thought that the increasingly exaggerated and abstract appearance of his face in the mirror was a very unique makeup style, but when Ayano's hand trembled and drew a question mark on her face, Xiangzi realized...

She was played.

"Ayano, do you know how to put on makeup?!"

"Well... I wasn't sure before, but now I am." Ayano looked like she wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, and she put her hands on Xiangzi's shoulders and said, "I am sure that I really can't wear makeup.

But... Xiaoxiang, if you think so, look at your current appearance, no one can recognize you. Isn't this the best disguise?

In a way, I am a master.”

"..."

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore." Ayano let go of her hand, but before Xiangzi went to the bathroom to remove her makeup, she thought of something and asked, "Speaking of which, if I use a mask...

Is the audio recording a little unclear?

How about a masquerade-style mask? That would hide your facial features without affecting the sound.

"Huh?" Xiangzi was about to say that was a bit too ostentatious, but then he secretly felt that Ayano actually had a point. "Let's talk about the mask later... Today, we'll shoot from a side angle, and then use a filter or something to blur the video."

"Okay, that's it...ah, wait a minute." Just as she was about to persuade Xiangzi to trust her makeup skills again, Ayano found that her cell phone was ringing.

"What? That 'fan' of yours again?"

"Yeah, she's quite enthusiastic. Why don't you try to get in touch with her later?"

Xiangzi glanced at Ayano's phone and rejected it unhappily, "Forget it, I'm not interested. Besides... I'd better chat with them as little as possible in the future.

We still have to maintain our mystery.”

"Well... then you go wash up first, I'll... after replying to this fan

After answering the question, today's work officially began. "

After giving a perfunctory remark to Xiangzi who had already run to the bathroom, Ayano began typing a reply to Li Xi on her phone:

[If this is the case, then Takki, the most important thing for you right now is not to affect other people's emotions.]

After ensuring today's practice is successfully completed, you can take a chance to send your friend a more moderate and reconciling message.

[In short, Takki, you have to remember that maintaining a band requires patience, especially if you're sure you're not actually going to disband. You need to temporarily put aside minor issues for the sake of a common goal.]

Use music to solve everything, use LIVE to deepen your bond, and in the end you will find that those problems are not problems at all.

.........

On the other side, Li Xi in the recording studio was holding his phone and waiting for Polaris's reply.

The people around were also a little confused by Riki's strange look, especially Aine. She now suspected that Riki was trash talking to her Ayano.

But she couldn't just go up and grab the phone, so she could only wait for Li Xi to take the initiative to explain everything.

Li Xi, who was wandering around, finally got the reply she had been waiting for. After reading these words that made her suddenly enlightened, she felt conquered by the reliability of Polaris.

Yes, in order to let the song of the lamp be sung again for everyone to hear, why not endure it for a while?

What happened between her and Ayano was actually nothing. If the practice was interrupted again because of these things today, she would be letting down Polaris's careful guidance and comfort.

Thinking back, every time she messed up before, it was actually related to her emotional instability... This time, Li Xi decided to try to learn the reassuring demeanor of Sister Polaris and become an emotionally stable person from then on.

So first of all... start with a smile.

"Rikki, your face...is it cramping?"

"..."

Chapter 84 Shiina Riki wants to establish a new personality (2/2)

"Everyone, keep practicing. Ayano... is very talented. Even if she's sick and can't come today, she won't fall behind much.

Then this score is confirmed to be the final version and will not be changed anymore."

Li Xi suppressed the urge to punch Aine on the forehead, leaving a big bump. After taking a deep breath, he returned to his usual cold expression, but the content of his words was much calmer.

Such a change surprised everyone except Lenai.

Aiyin and Sushi were especially confused.

Is Shiina Riki possessed? Or... was she replaced?

Aine also felt that something was wrong. When she said that, she had even expected this guy to retort, but in the end, nothing happened?

She, Chihaya Aine... is still alive?

"Aine, you've been playing really hard. Keep practicing."

"..."

No, no, no, today must be a dream, this is not real.

The stress monster praised her and encouraged her to practice harder. How could Chihaya Aine have such a dream?

But Aiyin wasn't that itchy, so naturally she wouldn't take the initiative to provoke Riki in such a strangely harmonious situation to test whether he was serious.

It was hard to create a relatively harmonious atmosphere for team and individual practice, and she couldn't possibly disrupt everything at this time.

"Speaking of which, tomorrow night... I think I'm going to be on stage, right?"

After everyone had practiced for a while, Li Xi was about to ask everyone to play the entire song together without the keyboard, but Su Shi suddenly reminded everyone.

"Tomorrow..." Deng frowned, obviously feeling that he was not ready yet.

But when she looked at the people around her, she felt that with them by her side, everything was not so serious.

"Ah? So fast?"

"What did you think?" Li Xi heard Ain's somewhat silly question and suddenly lost his new personality and explained in a bad mood, "On the first day, Su Shi was late, and on the second day, Ain, you suddenly ran away.

The third day was a little more normal...at least the first new song was confirmed."

Speaking of this, everyone felt a pang in their hearts, as if they recalled the painful memories of being beaten bloody by Ayano and Lenna at full power.

So, you call it normal for two people to modify a song on the spot and then play three instruments?

"On the fourth day... I left early, on the fifth day..."

Speaking of this, Li Xi's face became a little embarrassed, because the past two days had caused everyone's practice to be interrupted, all because of his own reasons.

Although she knew that she would get carried away by her emotions sometimes, she really couldn't think so clearly in that situation... Well, she still needed to practice.

"Then

Today is the sixth day and Ayano is absent."

After saying this long paragraph, Li Xi couldn't help but slap himself on the forehead.

Too unfocused, in this state...how can I guarantee a success for tomorrow's LIVE? But when Li Xi saw that Deng's eyes were now very determined, she finally revealed her first natural smile of the day.

Maybe Ayano can say something sensible sometimes.

For example, Ayano said before that their first LIVE doesn’t need to be too perfect. The most important thing is that everyone can participate and have the courage to take that first step.

It doesn’t matter whether they do it well or not, at least they have tried. And it is precisely because of the imperfections of the first time that they will be motivated to continue working hard for the final perfect LIVE.

This is the power that music brings to people...

Gradually, Li Xi suddenly felt that Ayano and Polaris were particularly similar in some ways, because Polaris gave her the feeling of being a true musician who ignored other minor problems, used music to unite people's hearts, and expressed his attitude through music.

No, no, no, Li Xi felt that he must be crazy.

How can Ayano, a bad woman with a sharp tongue who occasionally speaks out some profound truths but is extremely arrogant at other times, be compared with a senior in the music industry, a gentle older sister who has a deep understanding of music and interpersonal relationships?

"But there's still some time tomorrow morning. If you can spare the time, you can come. I've already made an appointment."

"I'm fine. Ayano will be here tomorrow too."

"Ah."

"Then let's not waste time and go through it quickly." Although Su Shi was still a little curious about what happened to Li Xi, she now felt that everything was getting better and better. "It's rare that Lenai-chan didn't leave early today."

"Oh yes, Lenai, you have to be there tomorrow. We're going to do the sound check this afternoon. Don't wait until tonight for you to suddenly show up, and you absolutely can't not show up!"

"Ah."

Facing Li Xi's rapid-fire barrage of questions, Lenai blinked, looking quite obedient.

After Lixi struck the drumstick twice, two guitars and a bass started playing at the same time, followed closely by the drum beats.

Although Aiyin's workload was heavy as a lead guitarist, she had actually spent a lot of time practicing hard at home under the high pressure from Lixi before, so even Lixi, who always couldn't help but have some critical thoughts, couldn't say anything for a while.

Although the whole song lacks the keyboard part and sounds weird, fortunately everyone's enthusiasm remains undiminished.
