Guitar, loneliness and the blue sea

"Yusuke, lend me your guitar!!"

"That's an acoustic guitar..." Yusuke covered his face.

"Huh? Aren't they all similar? They all have six strings."

"It's a lot worse!"

Kasumigaoka Yusuke drank the unpleasant home-brewed beer in one gulp, and then took out the MP3 he used to listen to music from his pocket.

"There are a lot of rock songs here, so let's start with this one."

There are also two golden songs that ended the band, which can be said to teach them step by step how to chase girls.

But for some reason, Yusuke always felt that these two people would definitely fail in a very outrageous gesture.

Iori Kitahara and Kohei Imamura burst into tears.

"Yusuke! My superman! My best brother for life!"

"I knew I could count on you!"

The two of them walked away in a carefree manner, still arguing about who would listen first.

"Ugh."

Yusuke put his hands behind his head and looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle, feeling that the sun was a bit dazzling.

"Those two guys are really careless."

"Isn't it nice?" Liang said.

"What's good."

"Rock."

"Rock and roll is pretty good."

"Sister Shiyu said that you have always wanted to find someone to play rock and roll with, but unfortunately you haven't found a partner."

Yusuke was silent for a moment, then turned his gaze back to her.

"Oh, yes. Rock and roll costs money and time, and you need to be with people..."

“Isn’t it the same with diving?”

"So I want to play both. I have money and time."

Ryo chuckled softly.

"This is truly the most extravagant sentence in the world."

"Indeed, but we also need someone to accompany us."

"Look, doesn't this already exist?"

Kasumigaoka Yusuke was stunned for half a second and understood the meaning of her words.

"You...do you mean..."

"Well, how about playing rock and roll with them? You are the bassist and the lead singer, and they play guitar and drums, and then we start rocking..."

"It's not that simple, is it?"

"It's that simple."

Yusuke opened his mouth and laughed.

Just imagining himself and Iori Kohei performing on the stage together, he was stunned.

The picture is too raw!

Obviously, in his imagination, those two people were not wearing clothes at all!

I also wear a zip-up T-shirt and pants!

I have to say, this scene is so rock and roll!

"That's not possible, right?" He laughed.

"Why not? Anyone who wants to play rock and roll can play. They are really good at it, but..."

"No, that's not what I meant." Yusuke exhaled a long breath of beer-scented air, "I mean, if you want people who can't distinguish between acoustic guitars and electric guitars to join a rock band, will they really agree? ? You’ll probably think my brain is showing off.”

"I'll agree. Everything starts from scratch. You have to have confidence in your friendship."

"You say that because you haven't seen our friendship, right?"

"Have I seen it? That day at the Livehouse, they had a righteous two-on-one fight with you with their wild ball boxing, but it was a pity that they didn't start a fight. Isn't that already a very deep friendship?"

Yusuke: "..."

"Am I misunderstanding friendship or are you misunderstanding friendship?"

Ryo smiled mysteriously again.

"Well, let me tell you a story."

"Okay."

"It's a long story. Before I tell it, let's have some snacks - they sell Corona over there, so get two bottles, the octopus balls I mentioned before, and some vanilla matcha ice cream."

"Okay! By the way, you are good at eating."

Yusuke slapped his thigh and stood up.

But Ryo was still sitting there, motionless.

"?" He slowly typed a question mark.

"?" The other party returned a question mark to him.

The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Is this person...could it be...

"I don't have any money anymore. You go and buy it. Let's eat together. I'll treat you next time." Liang said very naturally.

Yusuke narrowed his eyes.

It seems like I paid the bill for dessert last time!

"...Have you always been like this?" he asked.

"I usually borrow money directly from others and buy it for myself."

"Even more disdainful!"

But Yusuke thought about it and agreed.

After all, the atmosphere of chatting is okay.

"Oh, forget it. Then at least come over and help me get it."

"OK!"

As if waiting for his words, Liang stood up and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"I want a large portion."

032 Deduct money for homophones!

After a while, various snacks and desserts were placed in front of the two of them, and beer was also served in their hands.

I had been queuing up at each stall for a while, and it was already noon.The sun in May is very hot, and the air in the seaside town is very humid, as sultry as a steamer.

So Yamada Ryoya, who always maintained a cool and reserved look, unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt.

In the eyes of others, the two of them were already dating.

But they don't care much about dating. In their opinion, it's just good friends chatting.

"So, what's the story?" Kasumigaoka Yusuke blew the beer into the bottle comfortably. Compared with the state in the morning, he was now completely resurrected.

"The story of Little Porky and our band."

Ryo Yamada rarely told people this, and she never told people stories.

But, man, at this age, you always have to try something new.

"Oh, Hong Xia told me something, saying that she didn't have any friends at the beginning?"

"Yeah." Liang nodded, "Actually, when we started to finish the band, it was just the two of us."

"Can't two people get along?"

"Indeed. We were very lucky. There happened to be a girl who saw my performance in the previous band and was very interested in rock music, so she wanted to join. We happened to be short of a vocalist, so we roped her into the team. ..."

"So casual?"

Yusuke was a little surprised.

"Anyway, we are similar in age and the school is close."

"Not even from the same school?"

"Didn't you also have a girlfriend outside of school?" Liang raised his eyebrows slightly, questioning his soul.

When he thought about it carefully, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it.

"and after?"

"There is something wrong with this girl. Although she joined our band, she always found excuses not to come to practice. She even ran away before her first performance on stage."

"Ha, you know that people you pull in randomly are unreliable."

Liang smiled, as if she knew he would say that.

"So Hongxia picked up another guitarist from the park."

"Stray animals?!"

"It's little Boqi. She happened to be carrying a guitar at the time, so Hongxia was ill and rushed to the doctor."

"That's it... Ichichi-senpai is really a very powerful person..." Yusuke shook his head and sighed, "I have experienced this kind of plot of recruiting people into gangs on the street once before the beginning of school. The scene was terrible."

"? What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's just that on the first day I came to Izu, I was chased three streets by those two big naked men."

Liang burst out laughing.

"Diving and rock and roll are really similar."

"Yeah. So what happened next? She was obviously left behind by you."

"Little Boqi, who just came to the band, was very afraid of strangers and didn't dare to go on stage to face the audience. She kept hiding in a box with mangoes. In fact, she always wanted to play rock and roll and wanted to become popular through rock and roll. But because of her withdrawn personality , like you, you can’t find anyone to form a group, so you can only practice hard at home, for about six hours a day..."

"So long? That's a lot harder than me." Yusuke smiled.

"So she stayed. She was actually very capable, but she was too nervous and didn't show it at all. Although the first performance was terrible, Hongxia and I both found her interesting, and then she brought Kita in again, We’ve been playing like this until now.”

"How old were you then?"

"Hongxia and I are in our second year of high school, and she is in her first year of high school."

Kasumigaoka Yusuke felt that his understanding of these girls had deepened.

"What's more important is that Kita is actually the one who wanted to join us in the first place."

"Did she run away?"

"Yeah. The reason is that she can't play the guitar at all and has no knowledge of music theory. When she bought an electric guitar, she even bought a multi-string bass. The reason she wanted to play in the first place was because I was handsome and wanted to be close to me. ..”

Yusuke was just about to complain, but then he thought that Ryo actually had a very face.

"But it was obvious that she stayed and became very good at guitar."

"So, the gist of the story is, if you want to do it, you can do it?"

Liang shook his head.

“There’s no real purpose, I just think it’s interesting, so I’ll just talk about it casually.”

The ice cream in front of them was almost melting, so the two of them picked up the spoons faster and chatted while eating.

"It's indeed quite interesting. It might be fun to write it as a light novel." Yusuke said casually.
