Young people with light music will not encounter lonely rock music

"Kotobuki-kun, the owner of this exhibition hall is my sister."

Because he knew that this was just a joke, Yijizhi Hongxia did not criticize too much.

"Most of the people who came to the last performance were my friends... so the tickets were sold out, but if the quality is still like this in the future, I probably won't come a second time."

"I'm sorry..." Ichiri Goto apologized dejectedly.

In her mind, she had completely blamed herself for the failure of the performance.

"But, Kotobuki-kun, after I returned to school, my friends said something like, 'Hongxia, the boy who plays the piano in your band is very handsome. If you have him on stage next time, be sure to call me. 'Everything.' Yi Dizhi Hongxia smiled sideways.

"So, in order to attract fans in the future, you should consciously take off your clothes before going on stage." Yamada Ryoya said while suppressing a smile.

"Wow... Do you think I have a strange profession that sells my looks to attract customers?"

Kotobuki Hikaru couldn't help but wrap her clothes tightly and pull the zipper of her sportswear to the top.

"Besides, it wouldn't make sense if it weren't for the fans we gained because of our music."

"In that case, I might really have to advance money to perform in the future..." I became even more worried.

"So, for a short-term performance, you probably need to prepare tens of thousands of yen."

"So cheap?" A certain man exclaimed inappropriately.

"?" Itachi Chishi.

"?" Mr. Yamada.

"?" Gotou.

The three of them looked at the surprised boy as if they were looking at a monster.

They are still just high school students.

Even if they are college students or social workers who have entered the society, not everyone can easily accept it if they periodically scrape together tens of thousands of yen to perform.

After all, if you really want to become a professional band, you should perform in a live house at least once a month.

For an average high school student, [-] yen a month is already a lot of pocket money.

Feeling the strange sight, Kotobuki Hikaru realized that he had made a mistake, and a little sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Speaking of which..." Goto Ichiri suddenly fell into a melancholy mood. "When I had dinner with Guang at noon, I just ate the funds for a performance..."

Although it was just a treat, Goto Kazuri suddenly felt distressed...

"what?"

"Really?"

The Shimokitazawa High School duo was shocked.

"Koto... Kotobuki-kun, is he really the kind of noble boy in anime who received an elite education but went to an ordinary high school?"

In ordinary schools like Shuhua and Shimokitazawa High School, students with the character of eldest lady and eldest boy are actually not common. If such people do exist, most of them are sent to aristocratic private schools.

"Speaking of which, the light synthesizer is KORG's flagship model...it is not something that ordinary people can use." Ryo Yamada, who has a deep understanding of musical instruments, came up and got to the point. (The brand used by Tsumugi.) (After searching, I found out that this thing weighs thirty kilograms instead of thirty kilograms, but it doesn’t matter, just eat books!)

"And I mentioned before that I was a pianist in a symphony orchestra and so on..." Ichichi Hongxia also brought up old scores.

"..." Gotou was silent for a while, but inexplicably felt that there seemed to be a thick barrier between himself and Kotobuki Hikari.

"Why don't you think about it and play rock and roll?"

"Because... I like it." Saying such words made Kotobuki Hikaru feel a little shy.

"Is it just because I like it..." After hearing Kotobuki Hikaru's response, Ryo Yamada, whose expression had never changed for eternity, suddenly showed a slight smile.

"This is what I like about light."

After the words were spoken, Yamada Ryoka realized belatedly that there was a bit of ambiguity in his words. "I...I mean the music and the personality."

Slightly incoherent.

"Me...me too!" Gotou Yili burst out with an inexplicable momentum that seemed unwilling to be outdone.

But he immediately slumped down, his cheeks were red, which was clearly visible under his fair skin.

"Anyway, if it's just about the indicators, then don't worry, just leave it to me."

Qin Chui stopped talking and then changed the subject.

"But... there is a premise."

The man's expression suddenly became serious.

"What premise...?"

"Everyone is serious and trying hard to become a professional rock musician. If it's just a high school student's play house, then I won't participate."

Words are difficult.

But it is realistic.

The practice room was eerily quiet.

Even the sounds of breathing and heartbeat were extremely harsh.

The three girls were all thinking and asking themselves, but they did not agree decisively because they wanted to solve the problem of indicators.

"Yes, we are serious." Yiji Hongxia was the first to speak as always.

No need for any confusion.

"Right, Ryo." Hongxia looked at Yamada Ryo standing aside.

"Of course, we are the closing band that will perform at the Budokan."

"I......"

Goto Ichiri hesitated.

Before that, I only learned guitar for the ridiculous reason of making friends and becoming a heartthrob.

So she's not sure.

But when she raised her head and saw her companions, the confused girl seemed to see the direction again.

"Me too... I want to become a professional guitarist!"

After receiving a positive answer, Kotobuki Hikaru's tense nerves were finally relieved.

"Okay, then..."

"However, we refuse!"

Kotobuki Mitsuru was halfway through what she was saying when she was interrupted by Ijichi Hongka.

"How can you let Kotobuki-kun bear the band's quota alone? We are...comrades in the same band. We are friends who can share adversity together. You must also recognize this and don't take everything on your own." People have to bear it..." Yiji Zhihongxia's words revealed distressed accusations.

"Yeah, let's just share the required amount equally." Yamada Ryo agreed.

"That's right... It's too irresponsible to let Hikaru bear the responsibility alone." Goto Yili also became stubborn.

"Everyone..."

There seemed to be no barriers between the band members.

The distance between hearts also narrowed at this moment.

"Yoshi, then in order to earn the expenses needed to run the band, let's all work together!" Ichichi Hongxia raised his hand and suggested.

"Eh?"

Goto Ichiri's expression changed.

"Work...part-time job?!"

......

Pochi suddenly came to see me just now.

Chapter 22 A Girl's Determination

The street lights have some bad contacts.

From time to time it will flash suddenly.

It was a little late, the sky was completely filled with black, the clouds were a little thick, no stars could be seen, not even the moonlight could be seen.

So the road is very dark.

Therefore, agricultural single-cylinder walking tractors travel much slower than during the day.

"One mile, one mile, we're at the station."

The girl whose body was pressed tightly against Qinbuki's back was disturbed by a burst of gentle words, and her hazy consciousness gradually woke up from the chaos.

"Huh?" Goto Yili came back to his senses.

Only then did I realize that the surrounding environment had completely changed.

It seemed that he was still in Fanxing's practice room just now, but at this time, he had already arrived at the entrance of the subway.

"Are you tired and about to fall asleep?"

Seeing that Goto Ichiri was still in a confused state, Kotobuki Hikari began to worry.

If you fall asleep while the train is moving... it's too dangerous.

"Ah...I'm sorry, I'm fine, Hikaru." Goto Kazuri shook his head.

"Speaking of which, you have been confused since you left Fanxing. It doesn't matter. But don't forget that you will be working here starting next week."

"Part-time job?!" Goto Ichiri made a high-pitched voice, which immediately attracted the attention of the people around him.

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry." He apologized softly to the people around him.

Goto Ichiri remembered.

Just now in Fanxing, it seemed that he had agreed to Hongxia in a confused way and wanted to work together in Fanxing.

Because I was so scared, I didn’t even have the courage to say the words of rejection.

"Ahhh...what should I do? I don't want to work, I'm afraid...afraid of society..."

Rather than working hard outside, it really suits me better to wait in the closet for my body to rot and stink.

As expected, someone with a social fear like me would just stay at home and be raised for the rest of his life...

Part-time job.

you.

Kotobuki Mitsuru is not among those who have to work.

At first, Yijizhi Hongxia wanted to drag him into the water.

But then when Hongxia asked her sister, Fanxing's boss, she made it clear that her showroom did not hire men.

"Do you hate working part-time?"

Seeing Goto Kazuri who was about to enter the heart barrier state again, Kotobuki Hikari said with concern.

"I...people like me can't do anything like part-time work...I will only cause trouble to the customers and Hongxia and the others..."

Why...why don't I have the courage to refuse?

Goto Ichiri was so anxious that tears were about to burst out of his eyes at any moment.

"Then refuse." Kotobuki said.

"Huh?" The girl raised her head and said unexpectedly.

I thought that Guang would persuade me that as long as I work hard, there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome, or something like that.

But Kotobuki Hikaru said such depressing words very calmly.

"If it were Hong Xia and Liang, they wouldn't blame you and would definitely understand you."

When Nijika forced Goto Ichiri to work, Kotobuki Mitsuru became a little worried.

"Why... Hikari would persuade me to refuse?" Goto Ichiri said weakly.

The girl's head hung down, and she couldn't see her shoes when she lowered her head.
