Zongman: Kulaixiku, resurrection!

Thursday, three days until the live.

Anyone who comes to see Baihe Sanhui today will be amazed at how proud he is.

Today, there is not only a thoughtful wake-up service, but also raw material powder filled with meat and hand-brewed coffee made from Li Xiao's collection of super-high-quality coffee beans, a full and hearty lunch box, and even a thoughtful pick-up service from the store clerk.

Compared with the treatment he received in the previous few days, Baihe Sanhui finally made it.

"Ko-chan, I'm here to find you again because you skipped class~" At 10:30 in the morning, Chihaya Aine, who didn't want to attend algebra class, quietly escaped to Kashiwa Miki's infirmary.

But today, Baihe Sanhui is a little strange. This guy who is usually lazy and stubborn is actually working hard on his own initiative. Is the sun rising from the west?

"It's Aine, please take a seat. Would you like black tea or green tea? I have some high-end tea here."

Seeing Aine coming, Kashiwa Sanhui smiled warmly and took the initiative to ask Aine if she wanted to drink some of his collection of fine tea.

No, there is a problem.

"Ko-chan, you look so strange today." Aine looked at Kashiwa Miki with a strange look and quietly took a half step back. "It's like you've become a completely different person."

"Isn't that what I usually do?"

"Ke-chan is usually so stingy that she doesn't even want to treat me and Deng to some good tea. She's always too lazy to work in the morning, spinning her pen all the time, or drawing little turtles on her notebook, or simply disappearing to smoke in the toilet..." Aiyin enumerated Kashiwa Sanhui's daily misconduct like a treasure.

The details were so detailed that Kashiwa Sanhui began to reflect on whether he was really too lazy.

"I think... it shouldn't matter, anyway..." Kashiwa Sanhui said hesitantly.

"At least it's worth the little gift the principal's wife gave me." Aine finished the rest of the sentence for Kashiwa Miki, then laughed with relief. "That's great, Ke-chan wasn't replaced by someone else."

I'm really sorry for not being a good role model for you, Chihaya Aine-san.

"Ke-chan brought a violin today. Are you going to the roadshow this afternoon?" Aiyin asked curiously after noticing the violin case hanging behind the door.

"No, I'm going to visit Deng after get off work and give him some private training. After all, your live performance can't go on normally."

That’s right, yesterday Baihe Sanhui called Deng’s parents to complain, and exaggerated the situation by telling them that Deng had new injuries before his old ones healed, and that his injuries had worsened due to him going to school without permission.

So Deng's parents confiscated the new crutch that Baihe Sanhui bought for Deng and confined Deng to the house.

Last night, Deng used LINE to ask Kashiwa Sanhui to help rescue her from the clutches of her parents so that she could participate in band practice.

However, considering that he had a lot of things going on recently, and in order to avoid being forced to arrange his schedule by Deng again, Kashiwa Sanhui firmly rejected Deng's request for help.

However, he still promised to find time to go to Deng's house to give Deng extra practice, otherwise Deng would cry.

"That's right, soyorin said that RiNG can't postpone the live any longer. If the lights haven't recovered by then, they'll have to give up the live."

Not really. At the moment, the lights just block our walking, it doesn’t affect our singing.

Kashiwa Sanhui suddenly had a premonition that Su Shi might be up to something bad. After all, this guy always cared about him. When he was not in the port area these days, Su Shi also used LINE to send him cyber greetings, and always made different kinds of lunch boxes for Xiangzi.

Well, I enjoyed eating it myself though.

"It's okay. I'll go check on the lights this afternoon. If the situation is okay, I'll tell you—No, Aine, you didn't even ask me to take you with you?"

No, there's a problem!

Whoever you are, get off my beloved student right now!

“Ahahaha…” Aine looked away awkwardly, twirling her fingers through her hair. “I have other things to do today.”

I have to cover for Rikki today. Yesterday I carefully checked the specific model of Yili's guitar. Gibson L...LPC, I think it's called that?

Anyway, it's ridiculously expensive. All my pocket money this month, plus the help from soyorin, plus the money I borrowed from friends, plus the money Rikki lent me, is still a long way from enough. I can only cover for Rikki to get the money to pay off the debt.

"Could it be that Aine has found a boyfriend?" Kashiwa Sanhui looked at Aine with considerable suspicion. How come a sixteen-year-old kid can be single but I can't?

"Of course not!" Aine denied decisively. "I just have to go to work this afternoon. After all, after all, I broke Gudu-chan's guitar, so I have to buy a new one as compensation."

"Gudu-chan hasn't been able to play guitar these past few days. It must be hard for you, right?"

After all, the kid looked like he had no other skills except guitar.

"Eh, doesn't Aine know?" Kashiwa Miki scratched his head in surprise, "Ichiri has already ordered a new guitar. It hasn't been delivered yet, but it should be in the next couple of days."

Eh?

"It's a custom model from Yamaha. I don't remember what it's called, but the sound quality should be just as good as the original one, and the price might even be a lot cheaper."

Eh? Then what's the point of me shamelessly scraping together money these past few days?

I even found my former junior high school classmate! I even spent half an hour making up a perfect excuse to borrow money!

“…Are you okay, Aine?”

From Kashiwa Miki's perspective, Aine looked a little gray.

"No, it's okay, haha..."

You don't look like you're alright, Chihaya Aine-san.

"I, I suddenly feel much better. I'm going back to class first..."

Looking at Aine who was leaving like a zombie, Kashiwa Miki was a little confused.

I've already made the tea, why are you leaving without even a sip?

"Okay, then good luck on your part-time job, Aine."

Aine paused visibly, and her back looked even more dejected.

After closing the door of the infirmary, Kashiwa Sanhui sat alone in a chair, drinking two cups of tea.

I don't have much work to do now, so I'll see if there is anything updated secretly on the system.

[Quest List: Takamatsu Tomo Series Quest 2; Toyokawa Shoko Series Quest 3; Finding the Enemy 2]

Huh? When did the Light quest get updated to level 2? I don't think I even did level 1.

No, to be more precise, why does the system always update information silently?

[Five years, eleven months, and six days ago, the host proactively closed the information update notification.]

Oh, by the way, there was one time when I was in my sophomore year that I was woken up by the system at 8 am, and in a fit of anger I simply turned off the message update reminder function.

Oh, I'm in a bad mood when I wake up.

After turning this function back on, Kashiwa Sanhui checked what rewards were given for the first mission in the Takamatsu Deng series.

[Mysterious Ticket: A ticket to an unknown place. You can sense that you will need it soon.]

[Command: Aurora Summoning: A one-time command that causes the Northern Lights to briefly appear where you are, lasting for five minutes.]

The first reward is understandable and may be able to advance the plot, but Kashiwa Sanhui really can't imagine what the second reward can be used for.

Oh, the lights seem to be from the astronomy department, and they should like the aurora borealis.

This will come in handy when you accidentally make the lamp angry.
