Chapter 229 Takasago Chie's Request

More importantly, just by hearing the prelude, she didn't know why, but she unconsciously thought of the plot in "April".

When Hoshino Ai's singing sounded later, it confirmed this for her, and her DNA started moving!

"Oh my god! This is the song for April!"

Chie Takasago was so excited that she almost screamed out loud.

If her mind hadn't told her that this was inappropriate, she would have wanted to take out her cell phone to record it like Noha Sugaya did.

At this moment, she even temporarily put aside the matter of asking Iura Hide for an autograph and the second volume of "April". The only thing on her mind was when "The Light Blooms" would be uploaded and released.

On the other side, although Hiroi Kikuri was already drunk, she was still excited and intoxicated as she danced to the melody.

With these two conspicuous guys around, who would pay attention to whether Yidizhi Xingge is playing with his phone with his head down?

After receiving the news, Iwashita Shima and the other two walked into the performance hall together, and as they walked towards the stage, they deliberately spoke out to greet Ijichi Hoshika.

Noticing this scene, especially that there were two strangers among the three people, Pochi-chan, who had been trying hard to keep her head up, suddenly couldn't help but stiffen all over.

But just like before, her hands seemed to have their own independent consciousness, and she continued to play accurately without any mistakes.

As for Hoshino Ai and Ijichi Nikka, there is no need to mention them.

Ijichi Kouka often accompanies Yamada Ryo to watch the performances of the Pathological Hacker Band, so in addition to Hiroi Kikuri and Iwashita Shima, she is also familiar with Shimizu Elisa.

In addition, after relaxing her mind, she has officially changed her name to Idichi Kapibara Hongxia. It is good not to make mistakes, but she is not afraid of making mistakes.

So she just glanced at the three of them casually and then calmly looked away.

Of course, compared with the real Capybara's mentality of lying down and thinking that it's good to be alive and it's okay to die, Ichichi Hongxia's mentality at this time is a little different.

After all, she still has aspirations and dreams.

So now she should be able to put down all her burdens and stride towards her dream with a light heart.

With this mindset, she was not only more devoted in her performance, but her technique also improved a lot as if she had broken through a bottleneck.

But in comparison, Hoshino Ai has made even greater progress.

Not sure if it was because of the 'genius idol' setting or because of Iura Hide's head-patting move, Hoshino Ai recalled the videos of live performances of bands and idol groups that she had specially found on the Internet in recent days.

Then, not only was he not affected at all, but he used the perfect smile that he had practiced in front of the mirror, took the initiative to look at Iwashita Shima and the other two, and waved to them.

Even though Hoshino Ai was like Pochi-chan, she only knew Mizuno Akina before this, and didn't know Iwashita Shima and Shimizu Elisa.

This almost shocked Ichichi Hoshige, who crossed her arms again with a serious expression and critical eyes after sending the message.

"Compared to what I just saw, the difference is too big, isn't it!?"

At this time, Mizuno Akina, who had come to her side, looked at the performance of Hoshino Ai and others on the stage, and couldn't help but complain in a low voice: "These little guys performed very well, especially this Hoshino Ai. I think these messed up tests you arranged are not necessary at all."

"."

Ijichi Hoshika was speechless for a moment, as if she had just met her all over again. She looked up and down at Hoshino Ai, who was already beginning to shine on the stage, and her mind involuntarily recalled the words that Iura Hide had once said.

She originally thought that when Iura Hide said that Hoshino Ai was a genius, it was just encouragement from a brother to his sister, and she didn't take it seriously.

It was as if she always complained that Ijichi Hongxia was a fool.

But now it seems that what Jingpu Xiu said seems to be true.

"This Hoshino Ai may really be a genius"

Thinking of this, Yidizhi Xingge couldn't help but look at Yidizhi Hongxia, and a strange look flashed across his eyes.

Yamada Ryo's technical level is already at a professional level, and he also has extensive experience in band performances.

Although Pochi-chan's body was very stiff on stage due to social phobia, her guitar playing skills were impeccable, and even very good in the professional circle.

Add to that the talented lead singer Hoshino Ai and the composer Iura Hide.

This is totally the rhythm of leading the team!

And it’s four with one!

"Hong Xia is really too lucky, isn't he?"

Yidizhi Xingge muttered secretly in his heart, and for a moment he couldn't help but think seriously about whether he should let Hongxia buy some lottery tickets later.

Although Fanxing is one of the most popular performance halls in Shimokitazawa, it is not very profitable due to its small size and limited capacity.

So she had always been worried that if Ichichi Hongxia chose to go the path of a professional band, she would not be able to support herself.

But now.
"It seems like there's no need to worry anymore."

"Well, Hongxia must hold Xiu's thighs tightly!"

Although this is Tokyo, the world of anime, the employment environment for girls after graduation is far worse than that for boys, which is also a serious problem.

So, like Yoshikawa Yuki's sister, she was worried about whether her "useless stupid sister" would be able to support herself in the future.

After all, it's impossible for her to never get married, right?

What if her sweet love will come one day?

"Hong Xia, this idiot doesn't even know how to be more proactive!"

"Xiu is surrounded by so many beautiful girls. If she doesn't take the initiative, where will she find her place?"

"It seems like I, your elder sister, need to help worry about it."

"How about we go home to celebrate after our debut tonight? Then we can prepare some beer for Xiu. No, there's no need to prepare any, because that guy Ju Li has plenty of beer."

"But I heard from Hongxia that many of Xiu's friends are coming over tonight, including Xiu's girlfriend. So even if we get Xiu drunk, it will be difficult to deal with him next."

"It seems I can only find another opportunity next time."

Just as I was daydreaming, the performance on the stage ended.

Except for her who was a little distracted, everyone else clapped vigorously.

Among them, Chie Takasago, who guessed that the song was written for "April", and Eliza Shimizu, who loves ACG music very much, had little stars in their eyes, their breathing became a little rapid, and their fair face turned a little red.

But in comparison, the one who had the most exaggerated and biggest reaction was definitely Hirota Kikuri. At this moment, the drunk Hirota Kikuri was like a crazy fan, screaming and whistling, and she was just short of doing a cheering dance on the spot.

Even though Iwashita Shima, who was beside her, had been her teammate for many years and had long been accustomed to this guy's personality, at this moment he couldn't help but have the urge to cover his face and stay away, or just kick this guy away.

"Never mind, this is still good, at least this guy didn't swing his guitar around and smash it around"

Iwashita Shima could only comfort himself in this way.

At the same time, Hoshino Ai, Pochi-chan and Ijichi Hongxia on the stage, after seeing the reactions of the people below the stage, all breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile.

Although it's just a rehearsal right now, and there are only eight audience members including Sugaya Noha, this is at least a lot better than before, isn't it?

Next, the five of them practiced "If You Can Shine" again. After confirming that there was nothing that needed to be adjusted or corrected through the video recorded by Noha Sugaya, they started practicing another song "Sold Out".

Then we rehearsed the two songs together.

With the help of Ijichi Hoshika, and with the help of Hoshino Ai and Ijichi Nijika, they adjusted their mentality right from the start.

It took them less than two hours to complete the originally scheduled practice plan ahead of schedule.

Apart from the fact that Pochi-chan's body is too stiff due to her social phobia, which cannot be corrected in a short period of time, even Ijichi Hoshika and Iwashita Shima could not find any other faults.

"Okay, let's stop here for these two songs. From now on, as long as you don't get stage fright during the official performance, there shouldn't be any problems."

Ichichi Hoshige said as he pulled out his phone and checked the time.

"It's 11:50 now, and since it's Saturday, there are a lot of people here. I'm afraid ordinary restaurants don't have so many seats. How about we order takeout?"

Except for Hiroi Kikuri who shouted that she wanted to go to the izakaya, no one else had any objection.

Especially for Pochi-chan, whose physical strength was not very good to begin with. Although she had breaks during the previous rehearsal, she was still exhausted after standing for so long.

If she didn't want to maintain her image in front of Iura Hide, she would have wanted to find a box to lock herself in.

At this time, Chie Takasago, who had been waiting for nearly two hours, finally got the chance to speak, but in order to increase the chances of success, she still found Noha Sugaya first.

"Huh? Can I get you the senior's autograph and the second volume of April?"

When Noha Sugaya learned of Chie Takasago's request, she couldn't help but frown.

The signature is fine, but the second volume of "April" is...
"Please! I know this is too much, but I really can't help it!" Chie Takasago clasped her hands together and pleaded pitifully.

If it was a boy, he might have agreed immediately, but unfortunately Sugaya Noha is a girl.

"Is it that exaggerated?" Sugaya Noha looked at her suspiciously.

"Won't the second volume of April be released next Friday? We don't have to wait too long, right?"

"It's even more exaggerated than this! It feels like there are ants crawling on my body! A cat's tail is sweeping around my heart! Forget about a week, I can't even wait for a minute!"

"."

Sugaya Noha was speechless.

She didn't know what it felt like to have ants crawling on her body, but wasn't the feeling of a cat's tail sweeping across her heart exactly how she felt when she wanted to see Jingpu Xiu?

"You can't wait for a minute? Didn't you just wait for two hours?"

Sugaya Noha complained in a low voice with a look of disbelief, and then without waiting for Takasago Chie to speak again, she quickly said: "I'll ask the senior to come over, you can talk to him yourself."

After saying that, Noha Sugaya quickly walked towards Iura Hide who was about to go to the bar to get drinks with Kouka Ijichi.

"Senior, let me get the drinks. Zhihui wants you to come over for something. It seems that she brought a few copies of April and wants you to sign them."

Sugaya Noha did not mention Takasago Chie's other request. It was not because she was not a good friend, but because it was not appropriate for her to bring it up.

Even if she had never written a light novel, she knew how important the manuscript of a best-selling light novel was.

Not to mention anything else, if it were leaked in advance, the financial loss alone would be no small amount.

Although Takasago Chie is her good friend, Iura Hide is also her boyfriend. She can't make things difficult for one of them just to help the other, right?

So all she could do was to help Takasago Chie call Iura Hide over and let her speak on her own.

"Huh? Signature?"

Jing Pu Xiu was stunned for a moment, with a slightly surprised expression on his face, and then he smiled and said: "Okay, I'll go over now."

Iura Hide didn't think much about it. He put the honey in his hand back on the table, wiped his hands, and then walked towards Takasago Chie.

At the same time, Chie Takasago, who is usually cheerful but also a little bit sinister and sharp-tongued, suddenly became a little nervous when she saw Iura Hide walking towards her.

As the daughter of a bookstore owner, her biggest hobby is reading comics and light novels. She is not interested in idols or star chasing.

Even if you like a certain manga or light novel and go to a book signing event, it's only because you like the work itself.

But Iura Hide is not just a light novel writer.

Looking at Iura Shu, the melody of "If You Shine" unconsciously echoed in Chie Takasago's head. In addition, Iura Shu himself is good-looking, and his appearance is not inferior to those idols.

this moment.
Chie Takasago suddenly understood why those fans chase stars and why they were so excited and excited when they chased stars.

"Iura-senpai."

"Do you want an autograph?"

"Um"

Chie Takasago didn't know what was wrong with her. She suddenly felt her heart beating faster and her cheeks felt hot. She didn't dare to look into Iura Hide's eyes, and even her voice seemed to tremble slightly.

Fortunately, although Jingpu Xiu noticed her abnormality, he just thought that she was a little embarrassed to ask a friend of the same age for an autograph, and did not think about it in other ways.

"No problem. Where do I sign?"

"here--"

As Takasago Chie spoke, she secretly glanced at Iura Hide out of the corner of her eye. Seeing that he didn't notice anything, she couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

However, just as she handed the three copies of "April" that she had been holding in her arms to Jingura Hide, her fingertips that accidentally touched each other suddenly felt an electric shock, and her heart skipped a beat.
