Glacier sister, don't want to be a sandwich

Hinai's explanation sounded like an alien language and was completely unhelpful to her.

Her eyes couldn't help but become a little confused. She stared at the contents of the book silently, but she didn't understand what Hinai was talking about at all.

Yue Ge tried hard not to let her expression get too lost, forced a smile, and asked, "Then... can you say it again?"

--------------

After listening to Hina's story for more than ten minutes, Yue Ge gradually realized a fact in his mind - as a genius, Hikawa Hina, although she learns at an astonishing speed.

But when teaching others, she didn't know how to break down complex knowledge into more understandable parts, and she explained too fast, leaving no time for Yue Ge to think.

Saya stood there, observing all this silently, with complicated emotions welling up in her heart.

Her eyes were fixed on Ricai, full of contradictions and unwillingness.

Saya had already noticed that although Hinata had learned almost all the basic music theory knowledge in just half an hour, her efficiency was far beyond that of ordinary people.

But she was also somewhat relieved at the same time - Hikawa Hina was at least not as good as her in teaching people.

Saya unconsciously raised the corners of her mouth slightly, but the smile was a bit bitter.

She knew that Ricai was a genius.

But this talent also made Hinai lack the patience to understand the difficulties of others - she learned almost intuitively, without considering how others could understand what she learned.

As for Sayo herself, although her talent is not as outstanding as Hina's, she has learned patience and hard work since she was a child.

It is precisely because I have studied hard that I know how to explain step by step and how to help people understand and master a skill from the most basic part.

Faced with the efforts of the genius Hina who tried her best to barely see a glimpse of her back, she now has the advantage of being an older sister, and she can finally feel a little comfort on this point - at least, she is better than Hina in this regard.

Chapter 110 Burnt Out

During lunch break, Gao Songdeng had just stepped into the gate of the Department of Astronomy when the scene before her made her stop.

An unidentified object suddenly appeared in the middle of the floor, as if some creature had been drained of its life force and collapsed to the ground, completely losing its vitality.

"good afternoon?"

Xiao Deng spoke timidly, her tone full of hesitation.

She looked closely and after careful identification, she finally confirmed that the "object" curled up in a ball and covered with white cloth on the ground should be Bingchuan Yuege.

Xiao Deng squatted down, carefully stretched out a finger, and gently poked the pool of "Moon Song", as if he was checking the status of some dangerous creature.

——No response.

She prodded again tentatively, but still no response.

Xiao Deng's eyes gradually showed some worry, and finally he could only turn his head to look at Ichinose Suyo who was drinking tea beside him as if asking for help, his eyes were full of "What's going on?"

Su Shi calmly blew the tea leaves in the teacup without even raising his eyelids, and said in a very natural tone:

"Don't look at me. She was like this when she came this morning."

Xiao Deng looked at Yue Ge who was lying lifeless on the ground, and then looked at Su Shi who looked calm. The confusion index in his heart had reached the sky.

"Good afternoon...?" Hachiman Kailing, who was following closely behind Xiao Deng, was also startled by Yue Ge on the ground after walking in.

“…Is this some new kind of performance art?”

Hai Ling looked at this strange scene in silence for a few seconds, and finally decided not to ask anything. She quietly walked around the direction where Yue Ge collapsed and chose a safe chair to sit down.

Then, a burst of energetic voices came from the door of the Astronomy Department again—

"Enter the Great Demon Ji Yazi!"

Accompanied by excited shouts, Yazi jumped into the classroom.

However, the next second after she stepped into the door, her eyes suddenly swept over the ball on the ground...a mysterious creature.

Yazi's steps stopped instantly, his pupils shrank sharply, and he took a step back reflexively. The excitement on his face instantly turned into surprise and doubt.

She blinked, blinked again, stared at Yue Ge on the ground for several seconds, and finally came to a shocking conclusion with her magical imagination -

"Is this... some kind of abyssal demon beast?"

------------

After a while, the classroom was still filled with a silent atmosphere of onlookers.

The "mysterious creature" on the ground was still motionless. Just when everyone thought Yue Ge had completely entered the "out-of-body" state, the ball of white cloth suddenly moved slightly.

Then, Yue Ge seemed to finally be unable to bear the stuffiness, and her head popped out from the white cloth that came from nowhere. Her messy green hair was slightly curled up, and her emerald green eyes were full of thick dark circles. She looked like a ghost that had returned from the abyss after enduring three days and three nights.

She half-closed her eyes, yawned, looked around the room with a confused look, and said lazily:

"Xiao Deng, Hai Ling, Ya Zi...you are here."

As she spoke, she slowly reached out and rubbed her eyes. Yawning made tears seep out of the corners of her eyes. She looked tired and soft, like an animal that had just been dug out of hibernation.

Xiao Deng looked at her like this, squatted down with a worried look on his face and moved closer, his tone gentle and full of worry:

"Yue Ge...are you okay?"

Yue Ge glanced at Xiao Deng dazedly, her mouth opened as if she was not fully awake yet. After a few seconds, she slowly replied:

"Nothing... I just couldn't find a blanket when I went to bed, so I had to make do with this tablecloth."

Her tone was very calm when she said this, and she was completely unaware that her current appearance had completely crossed the line of social death.

——The room fell into a strange silence.

Su Shi silently picked up his teacup, lowered his head and took a sip, as if to hide the smile on the corner of his mouth.

The corners of Hai Ling's mouth twitched slightly, and she looked thoughtfully at the wrinkled tablecloth, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

Yazi was completely shocked, his eyes wide open, looking at Yuege in disbelief, then he clapped his hands suddenly, his tone filled with a kind of fanatical understanding:

"So this is... the shelter cloth of the people of the abyss?!"

Xiao Deng: “…”

Su Shi: “…”

Hai Ling: “…”

Yue Ge was stunned for a moment, and it was obvious that his brain had not fully understood. He just blinked blankly, his eyes full of confusion.

Yue Ge: “???”

She didn't even know that this tablecloth had this effect.

"Did you stay up late last night?" Ichinose Suyo blew on the tea in her hand gently, looking at Yuege who had finally recovered from her slumber, and asked in a flat tone, "You looked listless this morning."

Yue Ge yawned, rubbed his eyes, slowly stood up and stretched.

"I just stayed up late last night to finish reading a few books on music theory."

As she moved, her loose school uniform slid up slightly, revealing a fair and smooth belly, which looked particularly soft in the afternoon light.

Su Shi glanced at him, his eyes slightly shifted, and he said mercilessly:

"If you put this energy into your regular studies, you wouldn't have to cram for the final exam."

Yue Ge choked at this, pouted, and complained with a look of grievance: "Actually, I now feel that the knowledge learned in class is really good."

Su Shi chuckled and didn't intend to continue the topic.

At this time, Hachiman Kailing, who was sitting beside her, finally spoke, her tone still that unhurried and calm: "So... what is the final choice?"

Obviously, compared to Yuege's staying up late and tutoring problems, Hailing is more concerned about the direction of the band.

After being asked this question, Yue Ge suddenly sobered up a bit, his eyes became serious, and then he took a deep breath and straightened his back slightly, as if brewing a formal answer -

"We... need to find a keyboard player!"

The air was silent for a second.

Hai Ling stared at Yue Ge quietly, her eyes as deep as water. After a few seconds, she slowly spoke:

"So, after spending the entire night learning about arranging, you concluded that we need to find a keyboard player?"

Yue Ge felt a little guilty under her gaze, and the corners of his mouth twitched, but he still straightened his back and said in a righteous tone:

"I can't help it! The keyboard part is very important in the original arrangement of 'Only My Railgun'. If I force an arrangement, the style will be too different. Besides... I don't have any ideas for an arrangement right now."

As she spoke, she spread her hands and shrugged helplessly, as if she was making excuses for herself.

Xiao Deng blinked and asked softly, "Then... where are we going to find a keyboard player?"

Chapter 111 Looking for a Keyboardist

"So... where are we going to find a keyboard player?"

After Gao Songdeng asked this question, the atmosphere on the scene became silent again.

Ako finally came to her senses and excitedly slammed the table, her eyes sparkling with eagerness: "Ohhhh! Isn't this a great adventure?! Recruit new magic users and form the strongest team! Leave it to the Great Magic Princess Ako!"

Hai Ling sighed softly and rubbed her temples: "...No, this should be a practical problem."

Su Shi leaned back in his chair and looked at Yue Ge meaningfully: "So, do you have any target candidates?"

Yue Ge was suddenly speechless, her mouth opened and closed, as if she couldn't think of a suitable answer for a while. Her eyes wandered around the room, and finally she said dryly:

"Um... can we put up a recruitment notice on the school bulletin board?"

The air was dead silent.

Everyone: "..."

----------------

Although everyone had some complaints about Yue Ge's idea and felt that this method sounded unreliable, the problem was that there was really no suitable keyboard player in their network of relationships.

The only one who can play the keyboard, Tsugumi Hazawa, is now the keyboardist of Afterglow, and she probably doesn't have the energy to join their band.

There is no keyboard player among the members of the light music club who can be sought for help.

In desperation, they finally bit the bullet and went to the school bulletin board.

"Oh~ So there are so many clubs in our school?" Yue Ge muttered to herself thoughtfully as she scanned the various recruitment posters on the bulletin board.

Colorful flyers were densely packed on the bulletin board, filled with recruitment information for various clubs.

She casually recited the names of several clubs, her tone full of curiosity:

"Tokusatsu Club... Magical Girl Club... Photography Club..."

Yue Ge watched and nodded his chin, as if he was seriously thinking about the meaning of the existence of these clubs.

However, when her eyes swept across one of the particularly eye-catching posters, the corners of her mouth twitched suddenly, and the expression on her face suddenly became very subtle.

"What's going on with this 'nap club'?!!"

Hai Ling glanced at him expressionlessly and commented calmly, "Just hearing the name makes you sound useless."

Ichinose Suyo said, "Alright... stop dwelling on this and quickly post our recruitment notice."

After hearing this, Yue Ge finally came back to his senses. He coughed lightly and nodded thoughtfully: "Hmm..."

She took out the prepared recruitment poster from her schoolbag and carefully posted it in a prominent place on the bulletin board.

The poster was brightly colored and had large letters on it that read:

"The Astronomy Society Band is in urgent need of a keyboard player.

Interested students please go to the Astronomy Club to take the test."

Yuege gently pressed the edges of the poster with her fingers to make sure it was firmly attached to the bulletin board.

She looked at the poster she had put up, a slightly smug expression on her face: "This should attract some attention."

--------------

Three Days Later—Inside the Astronomy Department

The afternoon sun streamed into the classroom through the windows, carrying the lingering warmth of early autumn. The astronomy department classroom was still filled with the same familiar faces, and the atmosphere was so calm that one almost forgot they were "urgently" recruiting a keyboard player.

Yue Ge propped up her chin, her eyes slowly sweeping across the empty room. Her brows furrowed slightly, a hint of doubt in her eyes. She hesitated for a moment, then asked:

"We...should have put up posters, right?"

There was a hint of uncertainty in her tone, and she even wondered if she had forgotten about it.
