old events in tokyo

Chapter 3
Kazuki Akiyama looked sideways at the various billboards that passed by the car window from time to time with a melancholy expression. Before today's party, Kazuki Akiyama had been wandering the streets and alleys with the mentality of playing games in the past two months. He is full of exotic, curious and fascinated.

So when people around him are struggling in hysteria, howling, despair, and dead silence because of the bursting of the bubble, he can face the people and things he comes into contact with seemingly open-minded.

He can feed homeless stray cats by the side of the road, and sit on the side of the road with the bankrupt president Sang and eat discounted bento. It’s not that he has a stubborn mentality, but that he doesn’t belong here and has an inseparable bond with this world. .

But today's gathering made Kazuki Akiyama feel the reality of this world for the first time. He is not dissociated from the world, he really exists. Whether it is his predecessor or at this moment, he has already had a relationship with this world. fetters.

What Gen Hasegawa said, the back view of Kimura Kumata's departure made him feel the pressure for the first time. He cherished this bond generated by friendship and didn't want to disappoint his friends who sincerely wished him.

In his previous life, he also liked music, but he didn't have outstanding talents or talents. He didn't have much confidence in whether he could support the dreams of his predecessor and his friends.

The buzzing sound of the subway and the chaotic thoughts made Kazuki Akiyama look a little melancholy and deep.

Several female high school students sitting across from each other secretly looked at Kazuki Akiyama from time to time, and occasionally lowered their heads and gathered together and chatted a few words, as if encouraging their companions to ask for the other party's pager number.

Ishida Takumi, who was sitting beside Kazuki Akiyama, couldn't help but smiled silently when he saw this scene. Although this guy has changed his personality recently, he is still so popular with girls.

About three to ten minutes later, the two came to the streets of Shibuya. At this time, Shibuya has gradually become a gathering place for young people who are keen to show their aesthetics.

Here, there are new cultural concepts in terms of music, fashion, art, advertising, business, etc., and even the Shibuya music culture has formed. Although it does not occupy the mainstream now, the influence on RB pop music has continued to later generations.

Time has entered June, and Tokyo has entered summer, and girls in cool clothes can be seen everywhere in the streets swaggering through the city in groups.

A female high school student in a sailor suit and her companion play and play with each other with their fair arms, swaying their youthful vitality wantonly.There are also hot girls with long chestnut hair, heavy makeup, and tanned dark skin standing together and posing for passers-by to watch and take pictures.

Kazuki Akiyama, who had only seen a few pictures on the Internet in his previous life, was an eye-opener this time, and Takumi Ishida, who was next to him, also looked at it with great interest, especially when he saw a group of hot girls scratching their heads and posing there.

"So Takumi-kun likes this taste." Kazuki Akiyama joked with a smile.

"Hey, Kazuki-kun, don't you think this is very cool? This is the most popular outfit right now. Many girls specially tan for hot girl makeup." Ishida Takumi asked in surprise.

"I still prefer girls in sailor suits who are white, tender and full of vitality." Kazuki Akiyama expressed his aesthetics without hesitation.

Not far away, the hot girls who heard what he said just now rolled their eyes at Kazuki Akiyama.What a rude guy, unfortunately, I thought he was a handsome and gentle boy just now, but fortunately he didn't strike up a conversation, pants lock (damable)!

Seeing this posture, Ishida Takumi hurriedly pulled Akiyama Kazuki a few steps away from this place of right and wrong, "Kazuki-kun really dare to say" Ishida Takumi said helplessly, the previous Kazuki-kun had a rather dull and even dull personality.

Especially in front of girls, sometimes I can't speak a word, I didn't expect to speak so boldly now.It may seem rude to others, but Ishida Takumi likes Kazuki-kun now, and it is inexplicably easier to get along with him.

"It's true that girls in sailor suits are more kawaii." Ishida Takumi couldn't help but nodded when he thought of the scene just now.

"It turns out that Takumi-kun has also learned duplicity."

"You guys are really cunning!" Ishida Takumi smiled and hammered Kazuki Akiyama on the shoulder.

Kazuki Akiyama couldn't help laughing out loud, and the two stopped and went to a place where there were more crowds.

Surrounded in the middle is a young man holding a guitar, who is singing Mimi CLUB's new single "As long as you are there" released last month. This is Fuji TV's September [-] drama "Rare Friend" 's theme song.

It sold 92 copies in the first week of its release, and now it is the time for a big hit, attracting many people to perform and sing this song on the street.

After listening quietly, the crowd applauded spontaneously, and some people took 100 yen coins and put them into the guitar case on the ground. Neither of them spoke and watched this scene quietly.

"It's really nostalgic. A few months ago we stood here singing our favorite songs and showing our performance to passers-by. In a blink of an eye, we have graduated for two months." Speaking of this, Ishida Takumi suddenly stopped, and subconsciously glanced at Aiming at Kazuki Akiyama beside him.

"That's right, it was the time when the cherry blossoms were in bloom, which attracted many cherry blossom viewing tourists. But now it's already summer, and the cherry blossoms are long gone." Kazuki Akiyama also sighed.

"Hey, Mr. Kazuki?" Ishida Takumi looked at Kazuki Akiyama with some surprise.

Kazuki Akiyama knew why Ishida Takumi asked such a question, and he had to talk about it with his predecessor.

At that time, Kazuki Akiyama and a few friends in the band also liked to perform on the streets of Shibuya like many young people, hoping that more people would like their band.

But Kazuki Akiyama was not in good condition as the lead singer of the band that day, and there were frequent performances.In the end, the fans who sang the unbearable song asked for an apology. For Kazuki Akiyama, who is taciturn and sensitive and is the lead singer of the band, it is simply Waterloo in life.

After being forced to apologize, several people fled the scene in embarrassment, and never came to Shibuya to perform street concerts again.

This incident also became a thorn in Kazuki Akiyama's heart, and was regarded as a shame, and he even hid in the apartment secretly and wiped away tears.

After that, the members of the band never mentioned this matter in front of Kazuki Akiyama, for fear of embarrassing the sensitive Kazuki Akiyama again.Today Ishida Takumi unintentionally mentioned that it reminded Kazuki Akiyama of the memory buried deep in his heart.

"It's long gone. Besides, if you really want to be on a bigger stage, if you can't even face this setback, it's better to go back to your hometown and help your parents manage the grocery store."

What does the death scene of the original body have to do with me, Kazuki Akiyama?Akiyama Kazuki had an open-minded thought.

"I always feel that Kazuki-kun has changed a lot now, but I'm really glad that Kazuki-kun thinks so. Now I have some belief that Kazuki-kun might really be able to perform on the stage of the Red and White Song Festival." Ishida Takumi sincerely expressed his gratitude A good friend is glad that he can openly look at the embarrassing past.

"I'm even more stressed by what you said. Is it too late for me to say that I still care about that?"

"Haha, Kazuki-kun has become very humorous too."

The two went shopping in Shibuya for a while, and also went to experience a pachinko on the way. This pinball game is very popular in RB. It is suitable for all ages. Kazuki Akiyama saw many middle-aged uncles playing it. In high spirits.

The afternoon quickly slipped away, the sky was getting dark, Kazuki Akiyama and Takumi Ishida also parted ways at the subway station.

Standing alone on the street at the beginning of the lights, Kazuki Akiyama looked at all kinds of pedestrians in front of him. The neon lights of the city made this noisy city even more eye-catching.

In 92, especially RB in 92, it was really timid and fascinating.

By the time Kazuki Akiyama returned to his one-person apartment in Shinjuku, it was almost seven o'clock in the evening.After shopping for a day, I didn't have the time to cook any more. Although I didn't know how to cook many dishes in my previous life, it was no problem for me to eat and drink alone.

Open the refrigerator, take out the instant ramen, boil some water, simply eat dinner, then enter the bathroom, turn the crank to ignite the sparkling water heater, wait for a few minutes, put some hot water in the bathtub, and sit cross-legged in the narrow bathtub .

Closing his eyes and exhaling lightly, Akiyama Kazuki couldn't help thinking about when he could live in a house with a big bathtub and a bed.After all, I was more used to sleeping on the bed in my previous life, well, the next goal is to change to a residence with a bed and a bathtub.

After taking a shower, Kazuki Akiyama sat down at the desk in front of the window, took out a blank piece of paper and began to write and draw, trying to recall the industries in later generations that did not invest much but returned amazing returns, hoping to take a ride.

If you don't ask for food, you can achieve financial freedom and have a house that you are satisfied with. You don't have to pay back the loan. You don't have to rush around in the subway every day like the RB social animals in the later generations. Kazuki Akiyama is not greedy.

However, after writing for a long time, he had to stop writing, because he found that he was just an ordinary person in his previous life. Although he received a huge amount of information every day, he couldn't remember all of it, and many of them were half-knowledgeable.

The Internet will develop rapidly, but he only knows this information and knows nothing about the details inside. As for investing with money, let alone where the money comes from, there is no shortage of elites with unique vision in every era. In the industry, the big chaebols have already started to make arrangements, and you, an ordinary person, may not even look at you when you come to the door.

Bitcoin?That thing has high returns, but in my memory, the value gradually increased after 2010. The time is too long, and it is meaningless for the time being.

Kazuki Akiyama couldn't help sighing depressingly, he probably couldn't get through the road of rebirth in the shopping mall.

Because of the memory of the original body, Kazuki Akiyama also tried to continue the musical path at the beginning, but in his previous life, as an ordinary person, the only musical instrument he knew was the piano at the training class level, and he only knew simple staves, and nothing else.The songs he was familiar with in his previous life were all Chinese music, and there is a high probability that the island country will not adapt to the climate.

The only consolation is that the voice and guitar skills of the original body have been inherited. Kazuki Akiyama sang a few words in private. The voice is mellow and magnetic, with a touch of clarity.

It's a pity that he really doesn't know much about RB music. Now that he is asked to return to the music path, he is confused for a while, feeling like he has no way to start.

In the chaos, Akiyama Kazuki simply put the paper and pen aside, opened the drawer under the desk, and took out a stack of manuscript paper, which was full of notes and words, and there were many traces of alteration.

This is left by the original body. It can be seen that the original body has been trying to write lyrics and compose music by himself, but many of them seem disorganized, some only have a few notes, and some only have a few short words.

Akiyama Kazuki rubbed the paper, then looked up at the guitar hanging on the wall, got up and took the guitar and hugged it in his arms, a familiar feeling came to his heart, as if his long-lost partner had returned to his side.

After plucking a few notes casually, his eyes became brighter, and then he played a melody, pressed his fingers lightly on the strings, closed his eyes and took a few breaths, and then opened his eyes to become resolute.

Kazuki Akiyama put back the guitar, went to the tatami and lay down on his back. The images of the day's experience kept flashing in his mind. Gen Hasegawa leaned forward to ask, Kimura Yuta waved away from the back, and Ishida Takumi's eyes implied encouragement and expectation.

He also thought of the kind faces of his parents and the adoring eyes of his younger brother in his memory when his parents encouraged him to pursue his dreams.These interweaving made Akiyama Kazuki feel uneasy, as if there was something accumulated in his chest that urgently needed to be vented.

He has decided that no matter whether he succeeds or not, he will try his best. He will first go to Shibuya and Akihabara to perform on the streets, and then go to the surrounding live houses to promote himself. However, live houses generally focus on bands. You can first find Takumi Ishida Help, and then gather a team member temporarily, and first strive for the warm-up singer's unpopular time period, it doesn't matter if you can sing.

Then record the demo, and send a copy to all record companies and offices, and try all the methods that can be tried.Otherwise, Kazuki Akiyama himself would not be reconciled, at least he still has vision as a time traveler, and it would be a waste of time not to try and follow the trend.

After making up his mind, a burst of exhaustion soon struck, and Kazuki Akiyama fell asleep unknowingly.
