When the two were waiting for the live performance to begin, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. Quan glanced at Nagasaki Soyo who didn't react beside him, took out his cell phone in front of her, and looked through the new unread messages.

[I'm here, where are you?]

After observing the environment in the field and determining his position, Izumi gave a brief description and then sent it to Aine.

Nagasaki Shoyo acted as if he didn't notice Izumi sending the message and didn't ask any further questions.

Not long after, Aiyin, who had hurried over, just came in from the entrance and saw Nagasaki Soushi standing with Izumi. She pursed her lips slightly and then walked towards the two of them.

"Sorry, I just got here now. It took me a little time on the way here."

When she came to Izumi and Nagasaki Soushi, Chihaya Ai apologized to them and said that she was late.

Seeing that Nagasaki Soushi beside him had no intention of responding, Quan knew that he had to take over Aine's conversation.

"The live hasn't started yet. Did you forget about today's live?"

"I also have all kinds of things... It's normal to forget them!"

She glanced at Nagasaki Shoyo beside Izumi and found that he was just staring at the stage quietly without looking at her. Chihaya Aine felt disappointed.

"As expected, I am hated?"

Thinking back to what Izumi had said to her, and the time she spent with Nagasaki Soushi, her eyes stayed on Nagasaki Soushi and she slowly walked towards her.

"Good evening, Shuangshi."

Even though Nagasaki Soyo ignored her, Aine still came to Nagasaki Soyo's side and took the initiative to greet him.

"Good evening, are you here to watch the live performance as well?"

"Um……"

The conversation between the two was pale and dry, with almost no emotion in it, which made Quan, who was standing nearby, feel awkward.

"The band of the girl selling tickets seems to be the third one. We can see their performance soon. What style do you think their band will be?"

His eyes fell on Aine, and seeing her and Nagasaki Soushi chatting about nothing, Izumi took the initiative to interrupt their conversation and started looking for something to talk about.

"...I don't know, but judging from the girl's appearance, she doesn't seem very old. It should be a popular style, right?"

Seeing that Nagasaki Soushi didn't pay much attention to her, Ai Ne realized that she couldn't force it too much at this time. After hearing Izumi's question, she briefly recalled what happened that day, and then gave her own guess and answer.

"What about Quan? What do you think?"

"Rock and roll."

Thinking back to the girl that day, although it was just a few simple words of communication, Quan sensed a sense of rebelliousness from her reaction and expression.

"Rock?"

After hearing what Izumi said, Aine looked at him with some surprise, but she didn't ask him why he felt that way.

"If you guess wrong, after the live show is over, accompany me to the convenience store and you pay."

Originally, he was just chatting with Aine, but he didn't expect that she would add a stake. Izumi was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly thought of the "maid" he had thought of before, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

"So, what if you lose?"

319. This is real music

After hearing what Izumi said, Chihaya Aine was also stunned for a moment, and looked at Izumi in front of her with a strange look in her eyes.

It was obvious that Quan didn't care about the so-called bet in the past, but today he suddenly talked to her about the bet, which made her keenly aware of something wrong and she felt a little alert.

"What do you want to bet?"

Since Nagasaki Soyo was right beside her, Chihaya Aine did not dwell on this issue for too long and asked directly about Izumi's punishment.

Faced with his sister's question, Quan just gave her a meaningful smile.

"I haven't thought of it yet. I'll tell you when I think of it."

"……suspicious."

She felt increasingly uneasy, but Chihaya Aine didn't think that Izumi would make any overly harsh or excessive demands, so she didn't press the issue further.

Nagasaki Shoyo watched the interaction between the brother and sister. His gaze stayed on Chihaya Aine for a moment, then fell on Izumi again, but he did not say anything, or make any intimate gestures towards Izumi in front of Chihaya Aine. The three of them just stood quietly in the venue, waiting for the show to begin.

"The live show has already started."

Standing backstage, Jing Serina watched the live performance that had already begun, with a hint of nervousness on her face. Thinking that she was about to perform at the live performance, she found it difficult to calm down for a moment.

"What, are you scared?"

Momoka Kawahara stood beside Jina Isen, with her arms folded, looking at the stage and the audience below, with a nostalgic expression on her face.

"No fear!"

Faced with Kawaharaki Momoka's teasing, Isen Rinna subconsciously retorted, but then suddenly shrank her neck.

"But... it's your first time on a live stage, so you're not completely free of nervousness, right? What about Subaru? It's your first time on a live stage, too, right?"

Thinking of another person in the band, Jing Serina's eyes fell on An and Subaru, hoping to get some comfort from them.

"Hmm? I'm just average. After all, I graduated from an arts school, so scenes like this are nothing."

After hearing the question from Ichinose Rinna, An Hesuba showed a confident expression on his face. When Ichinose Rinna looked at him, he raised his head proudly. His overconfident behavior instead aroused Ichinose Rinna's unwillingness to admit defeat, and the timid feeling disappeared from her heart in an instant.

"Humph! I'm just a little nervous. I'll be fine once I'm on stage!"

"Really?"

An He Subaru looked at Jing Serina with suspicion.

"Humph!"

"Okay, this isn't the place to argue, right? Nina, since this is your first time on a live stage, you should watch other people's performances carefully. You can learn a lot of useful experience there."

"..."

With the comfort of Kawahara Ki Momoka, Isen Rina also calmed down, her eyes fixed on the performing band, her mood a little uncertain.

Not long after, it was the three-member band's turn to perform. Jing Serina took a deep breath and followed everyone onto the live stage.

"Come on."

Her somewhat immature face and childlike figure stood out in the band that only had three members. Even though Ai Neon had forgotten about the live show before, after seeing Isen Jinna's appearance, she instantly remembered that she was the girl who sold the tickets.

"The lead singer."

Quan was quite surprised when he saw the girl walk onto the stage and stand in front of the microphone.

"Guitar, drums, and lead singer, a three-person band."

Chihaya Aine looked at the three people on the stage and was stunned for a moment, then she thought of the current configuration in the band.

"Lixi is the drummer, Deng is the lead singer, and I... and Wildcat are the guitarists. It seems that there are three of us..."

Her eyes couldn't help but look at Nagasaki Soushi who was standing beside her, but she found that he was just quietly staring at the three people on the stage, and didn't seem to think about the band's affairs, which made Chihaya Aiyi feel a little lost.

"Shuangshi... do you really not care about the band anymore?"

When Quan noticed that the childish girl was the lead singer, he had a guess in his heart.

"It's a new band that was formed not long ago. Something like the bass player just leaving the band shouldn't happen to this band, right?"

He did not look at Nagasaki Soushi who was beside him, because with the current distance between them, once Quan looked at her, Nagasaki Soushi would definitely notice it.

However, in the venue, many people were calling out the name 'Momoka', which made Quan doubt his guess.

'A three-piece band?'

After the three of them raised their little fingers on the stage and made a meaningless gesture, the girl tightly grasped the microphone, lowered her head and began to recite some lines with strong emotions, followed by a shout -

"let's go!!!"

As the lights suddenly lit up, the atmosphere in the entire live venue was instantly ignited!

The childish yet powerful shout made Quan's head explode. He never expected that the other party would do such a "rough" and "rock" thing.

Chihaya Aine, who was standing next to Izumi, was also stunned. Her childlike figure and appearance formed a strong contrast with her powerful shouting, which made Chihaya Aine think of her band's lead singer, Takamatsu Tomori.

"Deng... ah... her style is completely different. Although she did say some lines at the beginning, she wouldn't do anything so... well, she probably wouldn't do anything so exciting, right?"

Chihaya Aine had also watched other people's live performances, and had seen bands that could actively liven up the atmosphere, but she had never seen a lead singer with such an obvious contrast who could lead the atmosphere.

As for Nagasaki Soyo, his original curiosity turned into a look of brighter eyes at the lead singer's shout, and he looked at the band performing on the stage with surprise.

“It’s got a great atmosphere…”

Izumi placed his hand lightly on his chin as he watched the performance, looking at the band with a somewhat scrutinizing gaze.

'It's just that the lyrics are a bit... average? The impact is not particularly strong, but the high-speed and urgent lyrics are indeed quite exciting.'

He slowly glanced at Nagasaki Soyo beside him with the corner of his eye, seeing that he was listening seriously to the performance of the girls on the stage. Then he looked at his sister beside him who looked a little surprised and dazed, and the corners of Quan's mouth curled up slightly.

'Won. '

He looked towards the stage again, staring at the T-shirts of the three people, which read "No School", "Liar", and "Quit the Team" respectively, which made Quan a little curious.

'Personal experience?'

After thinking about it, it is indeed quite "rock and roll" to show my own experience, especially such a dark history, in a live performance.

320. Am I just her substitute?

"Shinkawasaki... a place name as a band name?"

After seeing the band's name on the brochure, Izumi, who had already walked out of the live venue, smiled and whispered softly.

Chihaya Aine, who came with him, was not very interested in the name of the band. Instead, she cared more about the fact that she had lost the bet with Izumi. She originally wanted to ask Izumi to reimburse her for tonight's expenses, but she didn't expect that she guessed wrong.

Chihaya Aine casually opened her mobile social software, typed in the name 'Shinkawasaki', and retrieved an account.

“Not many people pay attention to it, but when I go on stage, aren’t there a lot of people shouting out the names of the band members?”

After seeing the number of followers of the band, and recalling the previous time when the band appeared on stage, those people shouted the name 'Momoka'. Aiyin thought that this was a very famous band, but now it seems that only one person in the band is famous.
