It was the guy Shinichi called "Peach Jam".

The girl regretted sending a voice message because she was surprised for a moment. You must know that she and RoQ have known each other for so long, but they had never communicated by typing before.

After she finished venting, she saw that RoQ also replied to the voice message on the interface, and clicked on it with her pale finger, "My last contribution, I should come up with something." "Hey, is this RoQ-san's original voice?" The girl Looking at the chat interface, I was stunned for a moment, and found that I could no longer read it, so I hurriedly typed and replied, "Then let me look forward to your masterpiece!"

Then she tapped RoQ's voice again, wanting to make sure she didn't miss a word just now.

Play it again, and she froze again.

"The last submission...?"

After hesitating for a while, she organized her words and wanted to ask RoQ whether this so-called "last submission" is really about to retire, or "the last submission in 2017". You must know that this guy has done similar things before. For example, the title of tc station is marked with "the last live broadcast", and then the frightened fans click in and find that it is the last live broadcast in 2016.It makes people feel at ease and at the same time feel that they have been teased.

But she looked at the message she sent before and it was still unread for a long time, she pouted and turned off the line, "Mr. RoQ, alas——really."

When the girl was tossing and turning on the bed with her thoughts on her mind, Shinichi had already turned off her cell phone and was looking for his old notebook, which was also the memory he had pinned his hopes on.

Newcomers and new books, please collect them!

Section 3 [-]. Past Notebooks and First Meetings

After working for a long time, Moriuchi found the notebook that he had put away in the deepest part of his bookcase.

What is recorded here is a collection of songs that my father has been asking friends in the circle to write.Of course, they are all versions that have never flowed out.There are also a few CDs in the notebook, which are semi-finished songs recorded by Mori Susumu and Shinichi in his own recording studio.

At that time, Shinichi fantasized many times about the scene where he would sing these songs on a formal stage in the future.Turning out this notebook now made him feel a little complicated.

After picking and picking, Shinichi chose a song called "Prayer X".I took out my guitar, practiced it briefly, looked for the feel, then opened the recording software, recorded a demo, and sent it to Taojiang, hoping to hear her opinion.

After a while, the information bombardment of Taojiang began——

"So fast?" "This demo suits my taste!" "I feel like you can make a solo song for this song?" "You won't sign with a big firm that is optimistic about you, are you ready to debut?"" If you debut in the mainstream, can you see you and hachi working together!" and so on and so on.

"You can also give me some advice..." Xinyi avoided answering Taojiang's question.

"Emmm...Actually, the degree of completion of this song is already very high, right? My level is not enough to give a better opinion. Go directly to the production process, assign the lyrics, and then you make the accompaniment and we record the dry sound separately, and finally Find a familiar studio to do some post-production. The pv is just like you said, and I will cover it."

"Actually, this song was just lying on my notebook before." Xinyi typed back, "I will send you the lyrics first, and wait until I go to my private recording studio at home to record the accompaniment file."

"It's rare that you are so diligent, RoQ."

"After all, this is my last submission as a fan. I want to make it so that I don't leave any regrets."

"After that, where can I see you?" Tao Jiang changed the subject.

"Have you heard of Virtual Youtuber? I plan to carry out activities in that form." Shinichi confided his future plans to others for the first time.

"A youtuber like kizuna AI?? Sounds interesting." After waiting for a while, Taojiang's reply was displayed on the phone screen.

"If you don't go there, you still call it RoQ! I will definitely be the first to subscribe to your channel! Then I will post your news on Twitter, so that everyone can meet you again. In this way, your future popularity will be greatly improved. It's my credit!" Before Xinyi could figure out how to reply.The message from Taojiang was sent again, and the mood seemed to become high.

"No, let the name RoQ become history. As for YouTube, I haven't considered the name of the channel yet. I only have a rough idea about the character design and the like, and I will ask the artist tomorrow for the details." Xinyi Type and send.

Seeing this reply, Tao Jiang was stunned for a while, and blinked hard, as if she couldn't believe it.

"If I even gave up RoQ's name... how should I face the past and the memories of RoQ-san?" Taojiang bit her lip and sorted out her emotions—fingers jumped on the screen, sending out a message——

"If you can't be called RoQ-san anymore, what should I call you from now on?"

"Shinichi, Shinichi." Looking at the reply on the screen after a long time.Tao Jam clamped the pillow in her arms tightly with her left arm.

Putting the phone slightly close to her flushed face, Tao Jiang pursed her lips, thought about it, and pressed the voice button.

"Mizuki."

After pressing send, Mizuki typed again immediately: "For Chinese characters, write Mizuki." Then she threw off the phone, fell on the bed, hugged the pillow tightly and rolled.

As soon as the message was sent, I realized that it might not be appropriate to address it by name. I saw that my message showed that it had been read, but the other party didn't reply for a long time.He began to think hard about the words, trying to remedy it.

Tao Jiang's reply came at this time, and the letter was like a fire, and silently changed the note to Tao Jiang (Miyue).

When Xinyi finished recording the accompaniment and dry sound, it was already early morning before I knew it. I thought it would not be good to send an email directly to disturb Taojiang, so I simply set a timed sending and fell into a deep sleep on the bed.

"I slept so well, I really worked hard on myself." By the time Xin woke up, it was already 10 o'clock in the morning.

"Wait...the agreement with the artist is..." Xinyi turned out the phone and found the saved record, "10:30, Fujisawa Station South."

"It's over, it's over, I'm going to release the pigeons..." He hurriedly put on his clothes, stumbled into the bathroom to wash up, greeted his younger brother, asked him to solve the lunch problem at noon, and rushed out of the house.

The distance from Moriuchi's house to the south square of the station was not too long, but it was already 10:26 when Shinichi ran to the destination out of breath.

"Ask via Twitter DM, where is he?..." Shinichi took out his phone from his pocket.

"Excuse me, I've arrived at the South Square. I'm sorry to be late, where can I find you?" Xinyi scanned the surroundings with his eyes, and sent out a DM with his fingers.

"MapleHouse next to the station exit, I'm in trouble." I didn't expect the other party to reply so quickly.

"It seems that he has been waiting for me for a while... When we get to Maple House, buy a dessert to apologize. I just don't know what flavor he likes..." Xinyi thought to himself.

He walked quickly to the place named by the other party. As expected of a famous dessert shop, people lined up in front of the counter and formed a long queue, which could be seen from a distance.

As soon as Xin walked not far from the crowd, he stopped, took out his mobile phone and prepared to contact the other party again.

"RoQ-san?"

Suddenly, a clear female voice came from behind.

Shinichi turned his head hastily, but he didn't see anything—it wasn't that he didn't see anything, at least he saw part of the head of the girl behind him.

As soon as Xin turned around, his eyes moved slightly down, and what came into view was a lovely face.The slightly fluffy shoulder-length hair reflects a dazzling luster in the sun.She was wearing a milky white windbreaker, which didn't reach her thighs--if you look down, I'm afraid you will be regarded as an idiot.

Shinichi was the first to ask the girl who looked a little unhappy after being glanced at, "Excuse me, are you Shigure Yui-sensei?"

The other party supported his forehead, sighed, nodded, and said, "If you're talking about the artist Shigae Yui who made an appointment with RoQ-kun this morning to discuss draft-related matters, I'm right."

"Sorry I'm late." Xinyi apologized to her.

"I thought it would be a male painter..." - Of course, Xinyi didn't dare to say this.

"Well, I didn't wait long." Shigure Yuki looked around, "I don't often come to Fujisawa, is there any suitable place to talk about things nearby??"

Xinyi thought about it, and suggested: "How about going to the nearby Blue Bottle Coffee at this time?"

"Blue Bottle Coffee..." Miss Shi Yu's eyes brightened up.

"Please come with me." Seeing that her proposal satisfied her, Shinichi also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Speaking of which, I still don't know what type of manuscript RoQ is asking for?" Ms. Shigure who followed Shinichi asked, "Is there an illustration to be used for the song submission?"

"I would like to ask someone to set up a draft of the painting, and we will talk about the details in the coffee shop after setting it up. Is that okay?"

"That's fine." Miss Shi Yu nodded.

Although they are in a noisy urban area, the atmosphere between the two is quiet.

It's actually not that far from Maple House to Blue Bottle Coffee.Xinyi pushed open the store door, turned to ask Ms. Shigure to come in first, then entered the store by himself, and slowly closed the door.

The two picked an empty table and sat down facing each other.After ordering each of them, Miss Shi Yu said, "Now we can talk about your requirements for human manuscripts, right?"

Shinichi didn't go straight to the point, but asked rhetorically, "Has Mr. Shigu ever known about Virtual Youtuber?"

Ms. Shigure was a little surprised, but nodded, and said, "I have some understanding, like the Youtuber Kaguya Tsuki who has recently become popular on Twitter, Youtube and Nico, right?"

"Yes, the persona I want to make an appointment with Mr. Shigu this time is the persona as a Virtual Youtuber."

"Eh? RoQ-san is going to be a Virtual Youtuber?" Ms. Shi Yu was a little surprised.

"Yes, but please trouble Teacher Shiyu to keep this matter a secret."

"I get it, it's also my work ethic."

"Emmm... the character design I want is like this..." Shinichi said softly after receiving Miss Shigure's promise of confidentiality.

PS1 "Prayer X" is a song by King Gnu, released on August 18, 8

PS2 Real Fujisawa does not have Blue Bottle Coffee... Japan only has this store in Tokyo and Kyoto

Section 4 IV. Conferences, notifications and behind-the-scenes messages

Although it was said that Shigure Yuyi was chosen as the character design by Moriuchi in a hurry to see the eye, but after Taojiang helped him make an appointment with Miss Shigure for a manuscript discussion meeting, he carefully read Miss Shigure's works.

To be honest, Shigure Hagoromo's pixiv submissions don't have many male characters.The few submissions with male characters are also composed by multiple people.

But judging from the degree of completion of the male characters in several drawings, it's not that she doesn't know how to draw male characters, it's just that she loves to draw female high school students.

"In terms of character setting, a 17-year-old high school male student. Although he belongs to the home club, he often goes to his own secret base for activities after school. It seems that he is not good at dealing with crowds, so he has never been able to muster up the courage to form a band with others. .Looking forward to a well-known singing youtuber, so I decided to come to this stage. I usually feel lazy, but when I start singing, I become excited."

"As a result, RoQ-sang's draft request did not mention much about the specific details of the character design..." Ms. Shi Yu complained while holding her forehead.

"Uh..." Xinyi was a little embarrassed, "The main reason is that since I chose to invite Teacher Shiyu to be the character design, I should give you more room for freedom, right?"

After hearing Shinichi's reason, Shi Yu Yuyi was noncommittal.In fact, based on her experience as an artist in a game company, it is more difficult to do this kind of request from Party A.

"Let's discuss together..." Miss Shi Yu took out a small notebook and a pen from the small bag she was carrying.

"Next, I asked about other settings that need to be confirmed."

After saying this, Miss Shigure's atmosphere became a little serious.

"Yeah, okay." Being stared at so intently by the beautiful girl, Shinichi's eyes involuntarily moved to the side.

"Favorite hair color?"

"White."

"What eye color do you like?"

"red."

"What type of music do you like?"

"J-Pop."

"I thought it would be a Vocaloid song." It seemed that Shinichi's answer exceeded Miss Shigure's expectations, her eyes widened, "Obviously most of RoQ-san's nico submissions are from Vocaloid songs."

Shinichi just chuckled and didn't say anything.In fact, if he really wants to ask his familiar singing friends to answer this question, there are definitely not a few who will choose other types of songs to sing.

"Ah... also..." Ms. Shi Yu seemed to have made up some reason in her own head, "Sorry, I just want to determine the approximate genre based on the music style the character likes."

"Then maybe it would be easier for me to answer heavy metal?" Xinyi replied with a smile.

"That's not necessary." Ms. Shi Yu waved her hand, "In the future, when a friend needs an illustration request, please introduce it to me."

"It will definitely." There is no reason to refuse this kind of promise without paying extra costs, Xin nodded.

Miss Shi Yu thought about it again and said, "Then make an appointment. I will send you the first draft on the 31st, how about it?"

This date may be earlier than Xinyi expected. "You won't cause trouble for Teacher Shiyu, will you?"

"Actually, I submitted my resignation letter a few days ago, and I'm going to start working as a freelance illustrator. So I can focus on RoQ-san's drafting."

Then the two chatted about more details about the character design.After the discussion, in order to facilitate communication, the two added line friends.

After hurriedly walking into Fujisawa Station, Shigure Yuyi looked at his line friend interface, "The first personal business draft I received."

"Please give me more advice." The Line friend with the note "RoQ-san" sent the first message.

"Please give me more advice." Miss Shi Yu replied, and added a cute emoji at the end.

Back home, Xinyi received an email from Taojiang, to the effect that he has already made an appointment with the post-production studio, and the pv is also working hard on production.Only at the end of the email was a question - when is he going to inform the fans about his retirement?

"Actually, I haven't even told my friends other than you about my plans to retire..." Shinichi replied in this way.

And this also reminded Xinyi that although I am planning to retire to become a Vtuber, who dares to say that I will never meet my friends as a Vtuber in the future?

"It's time to tell everyone..." He opened Line, and entered the Nico Singing and Communication Discord where he was pulled into by a Singing friend.After pondering for a while, watching everyone who was discussing the holiday arrangements enthusiastically, sent a message on the public channel——

"I'm ready to retire."

The entire discord suddenly fell silent.

After explaining his plans for his final days as the anchor of Nico and tc with a few close friends, Shinichi opened his Twitter account as a "RoQ" event, and began to consider how to tell his fans about his retirement. .

The first is Twitter, "Thank you for supporting me and RoQ for about three years. During this time, I have performed singing and meeting activities, and various people have created various Memories. The most important thing is the fans who have been watching me and supporting me. Thank you. I am very sorry that this situation will become like this. Although I am very sad, but the collaboration song " "Prayer X" will be RoQ's last contribution as Nico, and that day will also be the last day of RoQ's activities as the host of tc. "Prayer X" is a very good song, so stay tuned. I can't satisfy everyone I’m really sorry for expecting more, but please support my friends in the future, RoQ will always be with you.”

Because what I want to say is a bit long, Xinyi chose to make a picture and send it to Twitter.

As for the youtube channel he will use in the future, the account he used before has been dug out by radical and fanatical fans, so naturally he can't use it.Xinyi registered a new youtube account with his mobile phone number and was about to create a channel.
