Classic soul swap, but a musical

"No, go to bed at 11 o'clock next time." Aragaki Ai started eating the cake again.

"Then... why does Ai go to bed at twelve o'clock?" Her tone fluctuated a little, and was filled with doubt.

"Yeah, because I have to work."

Ai Aragaki also explained why she didn't reply to her message.

"Working..." Ruo Yemu thought about this matter, and Ai didn't want her money.

"Yes, I need money more often recently." Aragaki Ai's parents rarely give him living expenses, and he took the initiative to refuse them.

In the past, I only had my own money, but recently I have to support Xiaoxiang, so I need money even more.

"Oh...you really don't want my pocket money?"

Mu never spent all his pocket money and gave Ai some of it, which was not a big deal.

Aragaki Ai knew the amount, which was more than twice his current salary, but no matter how difficult it was, he would not ask Mu for money directly.

"No, I'll have money soon."

After being rejected, Mu was a little depressed.

Aragaki Ai also noticed this and immediately made a new request, "But there is one thing I need your help with."

"Ok!"

"It's about forming a band," he said. "I want to find someone. Can Mu help me?"

“......Who is it?” Mu asked.

I've gotten used to her pausing before replying every time. Aragaki Ai has already taken out her phone, searched for Miao Meng's account, and clicked play.

"Good morning! Meow meow!" Meow Meng pretended to be a cat in front of the screen, with a bright smile on her face and shaking her hands like a cat.

Unlike the natural cat feeling of cats, this one is just a cat pretending to be cute.

"It's this person." Aragaki Ai pointed at the woman in the video, and Mu stared at Miao Meng through the same eyes.

Hmm... a bit like a lamp.

There are also cat elements. There is also a book called "I am a Cat" in the room. Do you like this?

"Well......"

Ai Aragaki clicked on the follow button, exited the video, and found that Mu's account had gained a lot of followers recently, and it seemed that it was all because of that performance.

He definitely couldn't find Miao Meng by himself, so he could only ask Mu for help, or try to contact Chu Hua and find a way to contact her from there.

There are also matters concerning the firm, which require the use of the Wakaba family's influence. No matter what, I must have a good talk with Mori Minami and cannot bypass her.

After eating the cake, Aragaki Ai ran to the basement and continued playing the piano.

Don't waste the bonus.

Finally, there is significant progress.

Just before the end, Aragaki Ai stopped practicing and rested on the sofa in the basement.

"Love... not coming tomorrow?"

"Ah."

"......." Mu Hao wanted to ask if Ai had gone to find someone else, but she couldn't bring herself to ask.

She stopped talking and was secretly sad.

After a few minutes' pause, she asked in a cautious tone.

"Then...can I go find love tomorrow?"

"Sure, but I finish work at seven o'clock. Can you still come out at this time?" Aragaki Ai calculated the time.

"Well...I can come out after I finish my piano lessons, love..."

I could feel that Mu was getting more and more disappointed. It was past seven o'clock, and the driver must have taken her there.

Ai Aragaki's gaze moved to the right, wandering unsteadily. Feeling her loss, he sighed slightly.

"Five-thirty. I'll be done working at five. How about we meet somewhere then?"

"Ok!"

"That's enough. I'm going back now."

"Ah."

Not long after that, the game ended with the same thirty points as always.

My vision slowly changed. In front of me was the convenience store where I worked part-time, and I still had an hour to go before the end of my work day.

Aragaki Ai took out her cell phone and, in order to save time, planned to ask Xiaoxiang to come directly and go to the mall together.

The message has been read, so there is nothing to worry about.

He continued with his boring work. After get off work, he told the store manager that he could only work two hours the next day, changed his clothes, and went out.

Xiaoxiang was standing not far away, wearing the Yuezhisen school uniform, looking at the convenience store from time to time.

I don't know if it's dried out.

Aragaki Ai had this thought and greeted her, "This way, let's go to the train."

The girl said nothing and put away her phone.

The two of them got on the tram side by side. The other person still said nothing and went to the mall with him.

"What do you want to buy?" Xiangzi was a little resistant. He bit his lip, lowered his head, his eyes wandering to the side, and grabbed his right forearm with his left hand, not wanting to go inside.

"I told you to buy something."

Finally, they talked, and Ai Aragaki took her to find a cheap store.

In fact, I already vaguely realized what he wanted to do.

Xiangzi has always been resistant. He thinks it is good enough that he can lend her a place to live, and she cannot use his money anymore.

Aragaki Ai didn't care about her. She found a dress that was cheap and the quality of the fabric was average. She glanced at the girl.

"How about this set?"

"......"

He went straight to the salesperson and asked, "Excuse me, could you help me find something suitable for her?"

"Are you buying this for your girlfriend? Wait a moment." The female clerk took the clothes and glanced at Xiangzi.

The girl bit her lip and didn't refute.

Now that there was no one around, she looked at the boy, not understanding why he did this.

"I won't spend your money."

"These are essential items for work, right? If you work for me, is there a problem with me giving you two work clothes?"

Aragaki Ai smiled and said, "Just keep track of it. Put it all in the five million."

"......." Xiangzi tilted his head back, as if he could hold back his tears.

Volume 1: Chapter 71: Working

People were coming and going in the mall, and no one noticed the two people in the store. The lights above their heads emitted soft light, and there were white tiles under their feet.

The girl stood between the shelves, clenching her fists with a look of stubborn refusal.

"I do not want."

"Oh." Aragaki Ai probably thought of it as well. She looked at the salesperson who came back after finding the size and apologized to her. She couldn't argue with Xiangzi in the mall.

He and Xiangzi strolled through the mall, whispering, "The band is almost done. Next up is rehearsals, negotiations with the agency, signing contracts, performances, getting paid, and seeing if we can sell the album."

"......." Xiangzi slowly raised his head and looked at the boy's profile. "How can I help?"

"There are so many. I want you to go for a style like Metal Gothic. I'll leave the songwriting to you, Xiaoxiang."

Aragaki Ai spoke in a sincere tone and walked very slowly, trying his best to cooperate with her, otherwise with his speed, it would be difficult for Xiangzi to catch up with him.

"One more thing. Can you ask Chuhua out? I want him to join the band, so asking in person would be more sincere, right? I can leave this to you."

"Okay, I'll go." Xiangzi seemed to be in a better mood, and her frown slowly relaxed.

She turned her head to look at the billboard beside her, listening to what Aragaki Ai said, and knew that she didn't have to listen for the time being.

"By the way, I have to send a message to the bassist in case she's not available."

Ai Aragaki took out her cell phone, opened Hailing's chat box, and asked her if she was free recently.

Hai Ling: "I have performances every night during the week, and then I have none the next week."

Reply immediately.

He raised an eyebrow and replied, "Okay, after a week, keep them all for me. I'm going to have a job for a lifetime."

Hai Ling: "Okay, find a chance for me to meet the band members?"

"There will be a chance."

The conversation between the two ended here. Aragaki Ai showed it to Xiangzi and said with a smile.

"The bass player solved it."

“…”

Xiangzi took the phone, took a look at it, and returned it to him, "Mu is looking for you."

"Ok?"

Aragaki Ai took it back. There was only a sentence on the screen, but it surprised him greatly.

"That person said we could meet."

"Really? What's going on?" Aragaki Ai quickly sent a message and asked Mu.

Cucumber Flower Avatar: "She came here on her own."

"I see. I'll make an appointment with her on Thursday. I'll go see her after crychic finishes."

She quickly tapped out a string of text with two fingers and then clicked send. Aragaki Ai already felt that she had won the battle, at least all the people had been found.

"Yeah." Mu replied.

He raised his head and looked at Xiangzi: "All the members are here, now it's time to sing your song."

"I understand." Xiangzi's eyes fell on the surrounding shops, and finally looked at the boy's profile.

She bit her lip and held her breath.

This is what she is good at.

The band was about to become successful, and she had to write songs as soon as possible so she could go to rehearsal.

Once all the members are together, the band is formed.

Ai Aragaki felt that she would get the money soon, so she tried to ask again.

“So, I can…”

"no!"

She was interrupted by Xiangzi halfway through her words and she firmly refused.

Can't bother him anymore.
