My second life is a bit strange?

Unexpectedly, the other party actually made a phone call to call in reinforcements.

"If it's possible, could you lend me an electronic keyboard?"

"Hmm, I didn't know you had this skill, young man." She agreed readily.

Before long, someone brought the equipment, and a group of people got out of a van one after another, coming and going like the wind and lightning.

The venue was set up quickly.

"Hello everyone, could you please stop for a moment? We're about to have a performance, and it's free. If you're free, please come and support us."

The woman kept shouting, and Feng helped hand out flyers.

Goto blended right into the crowd, pretending to be a passerby and clapping: "Ah~ I can't wait!"

"Could this person be a plant?"

"It looks so unprofessional."

"He seems a bit dim-witted."

Hearing the surrounding chatter, Goto felt a stomachache and nervously started biting his fingers, before being pulled back by Kaede.

Upon learning that Goto had no experience playing guitar outside, he suggested that she close her eyes and play: "You need to understand that you are not fighting against these people in front of you. Don't mistake the enemy."

Upon hearing this, Goto stood there, stunned, pondering the meaning of those words. As he watched the growing crowd, his legs began to give way.

But a strange excitement welled up inside me, my heart pounded, and I gripped the guitar tightly.

"It's time to start~"

As Feng's fingers touched the piano keys, the somber prelude immediately set the mood for the audience.

"Pochi-chan?"

The woman saw that Goto was still in a daze and whispered a reminder.

Coming to his senses, Goto quickly took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and began plucking the strings of his harp.

[The class monitor is amazing! With so many people in the audience, why isn't he scared...?]

Goto was so nervous that he didn't know what he was doing; his fingers were as stiff as stone.

"Poch-chan, open your eyes, we're right behind you."

Upon hearing this, Goto's heart skipped a beat. He quietly opened his eyes a crack and looked at the audience below the stage.

Those who stopped to watch because of her music had excited expressions on their faces, their emotions stirred by her music.

"Go for it!" Two girls in kimonos standing in the front row cheered for Goto.

A cracking sound rang out, and the mocking and indifferent scene in my imagination shattered.

Gradually gaining confidence, she looked back and saw Feng smiling at her. The evening breeze blowing in her face lifted her bangs, carrying with it the aroma of cooking fires from the alley.

[Everyone's smiles... I want to see those expressions forever.]

"Please give us two tickets."

The two girls in kimonos asked them about the ticket prices, and once that started, more and more people gathered around, and they sold more than fifty tickets in one go.

"One sheet costs 1,500 yen, fifty sheets would be 75,000 yen!!!" Goto collapsed to the ground, his eyes constantly changing expressions like a monitor.

Feng helped her up: "That's great."

"Hehe... 70,000 yen, that's a lot of money. Now I don't have to work anymore." Pochi happily revealed a perverted expression.

Feng could only smile wryly as the audience below the stage clamored for them to sing another song.

The intoxicated woman, now in high spirits, suggested that each of them compose a poem.

Goto gave up his front-row seat to cooperate with the other party's performance.

Meanwhile, Hongxia and the others, who were rehearsing at Fanxing, were wondering why there was no news from Xiaoboqi today, and why he hadn't read their messages.

This left Hongxia feeling listless all day, worried that something might have happened to the other person.

Isn't that putting her in a lot of trouble?

Chapter 127 A Little Loneliness

"Huh? You're asking me how Little Lonely spends his time at school?"

Kita twirled her fingers, recalling that they didn't see each other often at school, and when she invited each other to lunch, the other would always hide away alone.

"You must be very lonely." Liang spoke calmly, but it was easy to tell that he was worried about the other person.

"Probably not, after all, her class monitor has been with him the whole time."

"You mean Senior Shirogane?" Hongxia immediately thought of the handsome white-haired guy who came last time. When Xiaoboqi talked about him, it was as if he came to life.

"Yeah, he's the one who introduced me to Boqi-chan."

"Could they be in that kind of relationship?"

Hongxia imagined it in her mind for a moment, but quickly dismissed the idea, after all, Goto was so shy and avoiding her.

“Impossible.” Kita took out his phone and found Eriri’s photo on the school forum: “I heard that their class president is dating this girl. They are childhood friends who have lived together for nine years.”

Nine years!

Hongxia counted on her fingers, thinking that there are only a few nine-year periods in a lifetime, and she felt a little envious of this kind of relationship.

Yamada Ryo looked at the girl in the photo: "She's a blonde girl like Nijika."

"Don't bring this up with me! So, do you think Xiao Boqi might like him?" Hongxia blushed unexpectedly, her words silencing everyone, given Xiao Boqi's usual behavior...

"Very likely!" (x3)

Everyone said in unison, and Hongxia even put her hands together and looked apologetically at the sky: "Sorry! I'm on Xiaoboqi's side this time."

While scrolling through her phone, Liang came across a piece of information that caught her attention: there was an open-air performance at the Summer Festival Food Street, and it was incredibly popular.

The photo that popped up when she clicked on it shocked her. It was Boqi and Feng, smiling at each other, with Boqi's face flushed with excitement.

"Look."

The crowd looked at each other, dropped what they were doing, and hurriedly rushed towards the street.

This post became a catalyst, drawing in people living nearby.

"Class... Class monitor, here you go." Goto handed Kaede a few tissues to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Feng's white shirt was soaked with sweat as he tilted his head back and gulped down mineral water.

Some spilled water slid down his throat, and Goto covered his face with his hands, peeking through his fingers.

"Xiao Feng~~"

A shout from below the stage caught their attention. Feng followed the sound and saw his parents standing in the crowd waving at him. Xiao Gui sat on his father's head, her eyes filled with undisguised admiration.

Kaguya, Eriri was there too.

[They are the class monitor's parents.]

Goto noticed this too, and placed his hand on his chest, trying to calm his heartbeat.

The class monitor came out to watch the fireworks with his family, but he did so much for me.

Feng's phone chimed. He opened it and saw a photo sent by Yu Xing. In some corner of the room, there was a group photo of him and his friends. The background was a sea of ​​people, and Feng was in the center, playing music.

"Everyone's here."

At this moment, the policeman struggled out of the crowd and said apologetically, "Performances are not allowed here. It has seriously affected traffic. Please leave as soon as possible."

"Hey hey hey!!" Goto was so scared that his face almost flew off, and he eagerly clasped his hands together: "We're going to be...we're going to be taken away!"

"Hahaha." Feng was amused and laughed uncontrollably, clutching his stomach.

Seeing how happy Kaede was, Goto couldn't help but blush.

Feng ruffled Goto's hair a few times and said, "Don't worry, I won't take you away."

Such an intimate gesture caused her to completely lose her senses and fall straight into Feng's arms.

Just then, lights came on behind them, followed by a booming sound. It turned out to be fireworks from the beach, bursting in the sky. Feng pulled the two of them in front of him and took out his phone: "You've had so much fun today, let's take a picture together."

The surrounding noise was too loud for them to hear clearly, but they saw Feng holding up his phone and knew what he wanted to do.

Boqi hunched over, looking to the side, and made a "?" gesture. Feng helped correct her posture, lifted her bangs, and pressed her head down.

With a click, it was transformed into data and stored forever in the phone.

Kaede sent the photos to them, and Goto looked at herself in the photos and thought, "Well... she's still pretty cute."

The three people on the stage, the sea of ​​people behind them, and the fireworks blooming in the sky formed a perfect composition.

Feng helped disperse the crowd and spent the rest of the time with his family.

Goto was also surrounded by his friends.

"You little Lonely One, you actually held a concert here behind our backs."

"I secretly rolled the rolls behind my friends' backs."

"No, that's not it..." Goto was now at a loss for words.

As the fireworks faded and the crowd thinned out, before parting with his family, his father pulled him aside and took out a 10,000 yen note from his wallet.

"When you go out with a girl, take good care of her."

"Thanks dad."

"Go."

Kaede took Kaguya's hand and strolled through the market. By then, most of the people had left, and the vendors were packing up. They happened to pass by an oden stall.

The simmering broth emitted a rich aroma, and an elderly woman with gray hair swept the bamboo skewers around her.

"Grandma, how much is this?"

Seeing that Kaede was holding Kaguya's hand and that there were two young people, the old lady waved her hand and said, "Anyway, we're closing up shop for today, so you can take it all."

As she spoke, she took a small paper bowl from the stroller and handed it to them.

There wasn't much left: radishes, potatoes, fish balls, and two skewers of tempura.
