Substitute Toyokawa Shoko, you can become stronger by breathing

But later on, because there were so many historical incidents, people didn't even have the energy to complain.

“It seems Ave Mujica’s tour has reached Tokyo!”

Chihaya Aine's eyes sparkled as she clicked on the official account of Ave mujica and discovered that they were holding a lottery event - 50 VIP tickets for the Tokyo station and a chance to attend a meet-and-greet after the performance!

"Oh my God! I must go!"

Chihaya Aine immediately sat up straight and almost dropped her phone to the ground in excitement.

She quickly clicked to participate in the lottery, forwarded it, commented, and completed all the required steps. But then she frowned, and began to worry that her chances of winning were too small.

"This won't do..." she muttered to herself, a cunning glint in her eyes. "We have to find a way to increase our chances of winning."

An hour later, Chihaya Aine had already used three different social media accounts to enter the lottery, and even borrowed her parents' accounts. But this didn't seem to satisfy her, and she felt she needed more "help."

Who else can borrow my number?

"Right! Soyorin!"

Suddenly thinking of a suitable person, Chihaya Aine quickly picked up her phone and sent a message to Nagasaki Suyo:

【Aine】：Soyorin～～～what are you doing? (≧▽≦)

Soon after the message was sent, Nagasaki Suyo's reply came:

【Su Shi】: What happened?

Chihaya Aine raised the corner of her mouth and quickly edited a new message:

【Aine】：Please do me a favor~~ Please! (づ￣3￣)づ

[Su Shi]: What help?

[Ain]: Please share this for me! There's a lucky draw for Ave Mujica's Tokyo Station VIP tickets! I really want to go! Every time you enter, you get another chance!

Nagasaki Suyo frowned slightly when she saw the message.

The content of her social media accounts is very serious, basically related to study and music.

To be honest, she didn't want the lottery content to "ruin" her account.

Actually, it is normal to think about it. The act of forwarding lottery updates itself will be regarded as "online solicitation" by some people, and will be used as a point of attack when arguing with others.

Ms. Nagasaki, a "real rich lady," put down her notebook, thought for a moment, and replied:

[Su Shi]: I don’t really want to forward content like lottery draws.

Chihaya Aine pouted in frustration when she saw this reply.

But soon, she thought of another possible method of persuasion:

[Aine]: Soyorin! You know what? I saw Meowmeng's video before, and she seemed to hint at a relationship with Ave Mujica!

[Ain]: In one of her makeup videos, the background music used was Ave Mujica's music, and she also said, "There are some secrets that I can't tell you for the time being~"

After the message was sent, Nagasaki Suyo was silent for a moment. Chihaya Aine stared nervously at the screen, her fingers drumming nervously on the bedsheets.

Finally, the reply came:

[Sushi]: ...You mean, Yutenji Wakami?

[Aine]: Yes, yes, yes! That’s her! And do you remember that label we discussed earlier?

Nagasaki Suyo was silent for a moment again, and finally replied:

[Su Shi]: ...Okay. I'll forward it for you.

When Chihaya Aine saw this reply, she immediately rolled over on the bed happily, a big smile on her face:

[Aine]: Soyorin is the best! I love you~ I knew you would help me! Hehehe~~('?`)~

[Su Shi]: ...Really.

Chihaya Aine put down her phone, a smug grin on her face. She rolled over onto her back in bed, her gray eyes sparkling.

"Hehe...I must win!"

She stretched herself and muttered to herself:

"I wonder what they look like under the masks..."

Tokyo, the neon city that never stops, welcomes the second stop of Ave mujica's tour.

The success of the Yokohama station was like a boulder dropped into a calm lake, sending ripples throughout the music world. Video clips of the performance went viral online.

Tickets for Tokyo Station were sold out within a day of being released on the official website. Scalpers were selling the marked-up tickets on online platforms for five times the original price, and the demand was still insufficient to meet the demand.

Renji Kujo stood at the backstage window of the Nakano performance venue in Tokyo, looking out at the thousands of lights in this city that never sleeps.

The stage here is larger than that in Yokohama, and the number of seats is almost double that of the Yokohama venue, which means that nearly five thousand spectators will witness Ave Mujica's performance tonight.

"How does it feel?"

Toyokawa Shoko's voice rang out in the space of consciousness, with a hint of nervousness that was difficult to conceal.

“It’s much bigger than Yokohama.”

Kujo Renji's eyes swept over the magnificent structure of the Nakano Performance Hall:

“But it’s essentially the same.”

He looked towards the lounge, where the four girls were already making their final adjustments. Compared to Yokohama Station, they were clearly in much better shape.

"Everyone." The blue-haired girl approached, her calm voice immediately attracting everyone's attention. "There's still half an hour until the performance. Is there anything else you need to confirm?"

"The lighting and sound have been finally debugged."

“Mr. Nakamura said that tonight’s sound system is more advanced than the one at the Yokohama venue, and the surround sound effect will be better.”

"I modified some of the drum details..."

Only Ruoye Mu remained quiet, but when Jiujo Liansi's gaze fell on her, she raised her head slightly, her golden eyes met his for a second, and then she whispered:

"I'm OK."

These three short words are a world of difference compared to the situation at Yokohama Station.

Kujo Renji nodded, satisfied with everyone's condition.

He was about to say something encouraging but was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Five minutes ago, please prepare to enter." The staff's voice came from outside the door.

"OK, thanks."

Kujo Renji responded, then turned to the others, "Finally, everyone, put on your masks."

.......

Inside the Nakano performance venue, the lights dimmed and the noise of nearly five thousand spectators surged like a tide.

In the darkness, one could faintly hear the breathing and whispers of the crowd.

The anticipation built in the air, becoming almost tangible.

A clear piano note rang out in the darkness, followed by a second note, a third... like stars lighting up one by one in the night sky.

The piano sounds slow and strange, not following the conventional melody direction, but inexplicably fascinating.

A beam of blue light descended from the sky, illuminating the piano in the center of the stage. Kujo Renji's figure was shrouded in this light. His blue twintails were like flowing water, and his amber eyes sparkled mysteriously under the Oblivionis mask.

Amidst the sound of the piano, Renji Kujo spoke: ""仮面の Dantakai へようこそ...""

His voice echoed throughout the Nakano performance venue like a whisper from another world.

This time, the stage design is even more grand.

On the background wall composed of giant LED screens, countless masks float and rotate in the virtual space, sometimes gathering and sometimes dispersing, creating a surreal visual experience.

As the music crescendoed, four lights of different colors lit up one after another, illuminating the other four members on the stage.

Sankaku Hatsuka stood in the lead singer position, holding an electric guitar, her short golden hair shining under the lights; Hachiman Kairin was on the left side of the stage, and the red lights covered her with a blood-red veil; Wakaba Mutsu stood on the right side, her long light green hair looked like spring buds in the green light; Yutenji Wakamu sat behind the drum set, her short purple hair blending into the lights of the same color.

When the sound of Kujo Renji's piano reached a certain critical point, Yutenji Wakamu's drum beats exploded like thunder, and the entire stage was instantly illuminated by countless changing lights. The masks on the giant LED screen flew in all directions like arrows, as if they were going to penetrate the screen and rush into the real world.

""Imprisoned in the depths of the deep forest..."

Sanjiao Chuhua's voice is high and penetrating, interwoven with the deep harmonies.

Compared to the performance at Yokohama Station, the stage effects at Tokyo Station are even more amazing.

As the music progressed, towering transparent columns rose on both sides of the stage, filled with liquids of various colors, surging, deforming, and blending with the rhythm of the music.

Above the stage, countless tiny lights floated like a galaxy, flickering with the intensity of the music, sometimes forming a huge mask pattern, and sometimes dispersing into galaxy-like light spots.

“「誰もが抱く秘めた情熱...(Everyone has this secret passion hidden deep inside...)」”

""Enter the whirlpool of oblivion that swallows everything...)"

With this line of lyrics, the sound of Kujo Renji's keyboard suddenly became extremely strong, almost dominating the sound of the entire band.

The floor in the center of the stage suddenly cracked, and a cloud of artificial smoke rose from the crack, turning into a huge vortex under the illumination of the lights.

""隠されたfaceの奥に... (Under the hidden face...)"

Sankaku Hatsuka's voice blends perfectly with Kujo Renji's keyboard.

"「さぁ、踊りましょう... (Come on, let’s dance together...)"

As these words were spoken, all the lights on the stage suddenly went out.

The next second, all the lights came on, illuminating the unified posture of the five members on the stage - they raised their right hands at the same time, making a movement as if taking off a mask, but stopped at the last moment, as if teasing and tempting the audience.

The entire Nakano performance venue erupted in deafening cheers, and countless glow sticks waved in the air, forming a gorgeous sea of ​​light.

""The memory of the darkness disappears... (At the end of the memory that disappears in the darkness...)"

As the last note faded, all the lights on the stage went out at the same time, and the Nakano performance venue fell into darkness again.

When the last note sounded at the Nakano performance venue, all the lights faded like a tide, leaving only a lonely spotlight in the center of the stage, covering the five masked girls.

They stood there quietly, as if time had stopped at this moment.

Then, the spotlights slowly went out, and complete darkness enveloped the entire venue.

In this brief silence, it seemed as if an invisible force was accumulating, until -

“Ave mujica!”

“Ave mujica!”

The sound of nearly five thousand people shouting in unison instantly broke through the shackles of silence, shaking every inch of the space.

Countless glow sticks waved in the darkness, like a flowing sea of ​​stars, reflecting countless excited faces in the audience.

All the lights came on again and the five members bowed deeply to the audience.

This simple action triggered cheers that almost blew the roof off the Nakano performance venue.

In the backstage lounge, the excitement almost overflowed the room.

"That's great!" Sankaku Hatsuka took off his gloves and said excitedly, "It's even more exciting than the response at Yokohama Station!"

"The number of followers of the official account increased by more than 20,000 during the performance!"

Yutenji Wakamu said, his eyes fixed on the phone screen: "And it's growing at an alarming rate!"

Yutenji Wakamu's short purple hair was a little messy because of the performance, but she didn't care at all.

The girl's eyes sparkled with a strange light, and an irrepressible smile played on the corner of her mouth.

This was completely different from her usual deliberately faked innocent smile - this was real, genuine joy.

"Those screams, those shouts..."

Yutenji Wakamu whispered to himself, his eyes still fixed on himself in the mirror:

"It's all for us..."

She once had a large number of online fans and received countless likes and comments on social media.

But those are virtual numbers, invisible faces behind the screen.

And tonight, thanks to the spacious venue of Nakano Performance Hall, she witnessed thousands of real people going crazy for their music and screaming for their performance.
