The losers in daily youth have all become witches

"Crunch it, Hanamaru!"

"My head isn't some zanpakuto!"

"Is this the place? The place where strange knowledge is stored?"

"No! All the memories of my childhood sweetheart will be squeezed out like water from a sponge..."

"Comparing your head to a sponge, don't you think there's something wrong, Yanami-san?"

Yukinoshita Yukino said coldly as she looked at the suffering Yanami.

"I can accept the comparison to a starfish, an octopus, or a crab..."

“Why are they all sea creatures?”

Yukinoshita Yukino asked.

"I feel like the burgers will be delicious."

Yanami said.

"You don't even take me seriously? As expected of Yanami, I guess I should be a little more serious."

Li Mo released his left hand, and before the trapped girl could feel relieved, he once again grasped her head with his right hand: "Actually, my dominant hand is my right!"

"Ball, didn't you still lose during the ball tournament even if you switched to your dominant hand?"

"Really?"

"Wait, wait a minute? It feels like my skull is making some terrible noises?!"

"Death!"

"Sushi? Where's the sushi?"

“…(use force)”

“Ah ...

While Li Mo and Yanami were still playing happily (?), Yuigahama Yui had already woken up the dormant computer.

She logged into YouTube with ease, but found that the browser automatically logged into Li Mo's account.

"Hey, is Asakura-san watching Guitar Hero videos too?"

The girl asked in surprise when she saw the video cover with too much big data streaming on the homepage.

“I just happened to see it, so I just clicked on it and took a look.”

Li Mo chastised Yanaijian while saying, "She's become quite popular recently. You can often see her videos recommended on the homepage of the music section."

When talking about Guitar Hero, he couldn't help but think of the misjudgment he made two days ago - it was because Goto Ichiri confidently said that he was at the same level as Guitar Hero, so he made the promise to let the End Band perform on stage at the Founder's Festival.

As a result, the other party's ensemble was a complete mess, only slightly better than that of a beginner. If he really put a band of this level on the stage, he would probably have a close contact with Amakusa Shino's fist, which was as indestructible as her chest, after the performance.

"……what?"

Li Mo suddenly felt a sense of incongruity.

He had not thought much about this matter because he was suddenly attacked by Chihaya Asagumo after returning home, and was later dragged by Ruri Gokou to attend an offline meeting on the weekend. Now that he thinks about it, there is indeed something wrong.

Goto Ichiri's autistic and shy personality is definitely not acted out. Li Mo is still somewhat confident in his own vision. If the girl can really perform such a personality without revealing any flaws, then compared to her, all the movie queens and actresses on TV will have to stand aside.

At least Li Mo didn't think any actor could portray the kind of facial expression a girl makes when she's so frightened that her features are about to fly out of her face...

That's very strange to think about.

People who are autistic and shy often lack self-confidence and easily develop an inferiority complex. Goto Ichiri does have similar symptoms.

So when I asked her, using Guitar Hero as the standard for 10 points, why did she give herself a 10 without hesitation?

Li Mo looked towards the computer screen. At this time, Yuigahama Yui had already clicked on the Guitar Hero video following their topic. The person in the video did not show his face. He was just wearing a pink sportswear and playing popular songs on the Oricon charts with a guitar.

"That tracksuit... and that guitar..."

Li Mo's pupils shrank slightly.

Although Goto Ichiri was wearing the Shuka High School uniform when he first met her, underneath her sailor uniform and short skirt, she wasn't wearing black or white stockings that would reveal her absolute body, nor were she wearing tights with a special texture, nor were she wearing white cotton socks that symbolized youth and health. Instead, she was inexplicably wearing a pair of pink sweatpants...

There is absolutely no mistake. Li Mo is very confident in his vision. The sportswear bottoms worn by Guitar Hero in the video are exactly the same style as the sports pants worn by Goto Ichiri.

In addition, the guitars are exactly the same, and even some of the marks left over a long period of time are roughly the same.

Then there is only one answer.

Li Mo let go of Yanaijian's head, then took out a Pocky from the snack box that the other party had placed on the table, broke it into two pieces with a "click", and stuffed it into his mouth to eat.

Goto Ichiri is the guitar hero!

Although I don't know why she deliberately pretended to be poorly performing - perhaps it was just because she was socially anxious and didn't want to be noticed? Or maybe she was simply not used to playing in front of real people and her performance was not normal - but it was obvious that everyone was fooled by her.

"In other words, as long as this problem is solved..."

Does that mean we can invite a popular YouTuber who is equivalent to a professional-level guitar hero to the Founder's Festival?

Isn't this much more stylish than going on stage with Yuigahama Yui and telling manzai to others like a comedian?

"I don't know what happened, but I feel like Asakura-san's look is a bit disrespectful..."

Yuigahama Yui glanced at Li Mo, taking in his ever-changing expression, and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Nothing. Compared to this, Yuigahama, are you interested in going to a livehouse with me later?"

"Eh? Me?"

The girl was surprised and a little happy at the same time. Perhaps this is what a girl's heart is like.

"That's right, Yuigahama!"

Li Mo nodded heavily: "I need your comedian's power!"

"I don't have that kind of strange power!"

Yuigahama Yui's girlish heart was instantly broken. She bared her little white teeth and spoke viciously like a hamster.

Chapter 171: The level is very poor.

Of course, Li Mo was not so reckless as to go directly to the door.

Although he did not exchange contact information with Goto Ichiri, he did have Ijichi Kouka's contact information. After all, they had agreed that whether the band could perform at the Founder's Festival needed to be "studied and notified later."

As the leader of the band, Li Mo naturally got Ichi Hongxia's contact information.

"Hello? Is this Miss Hongxia?"

"Yes, this is Ijichi Nijika. It's Asakura-kun, right? Could it be that the thing we talked about earlier has come to fruition?"

The girl's voice on the other end of the phone sounded a little nervous.

"Yes, it's about the Founder's Festival. Unfortunately, all the circumstances surrounding the band's closure were my own, so it wasn't an easy decision."

[I see…]

The girl's voice sounded a little lost.

Li Mo could even imagine the ahoge on the other person's head drooping.

So he continued: "So I plan to bring others to visit STARRY in person. Will the band have a live performance at the end of today? Oh, don't worry, we will pay for the tickets and juice."

Actually, regarding this point...

The girl on the other end of the phone sounded even more depressed. [The manager of Sister STARRY thinks our skills are not good enough, so they are not approving our live application for the time being...]

After saying this, Ijichi Nijina, perhaps worried that Li Mo would just go along with it and say they weren't needed to perform at the Founder's Festival, quickly added, "But we practice hard every day in the STARRY studio! Just come over and we can perform for you. Since it's not a live performance, you don't even need to pay for tickets!"

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."

Li Mo agreed directly.

Anyway, his target is only Goto Ichiri, so it doesn’t matter whether it’s a live performance or not.

He put down the phone and looked at Yuigahama Yui who was watching the whole thing: "That's it, after school let's go to the livehouse called STARRY together."

"Livehouse?... I've never been to a place like that before!"

Yuigahama Yui said happily.

"Hmm? It seems like a pretty nice place to enjoy steak and pizza while listening to music~"

Yanaijian was looking at Li Mo with a look that said 'I want to go too'.

"No, Livehouse is not a karaoke bar. People are crowded together most of the time. They don't provide any food except for mediocre drinks. They don't even allow you to bring your own food."

Li Mo said.

Then Yanami's expectant look disappeared quickly and visibly.

On the other hand, Yukinoshita Yukino was looking at Li Mo thoughtfully.

School was about to end, and Yana quickly left the activity room saying something like "Potato chips are on sale in the next city", while Yukinoshita Yukino looked like she wanted to stay in school for a while to get some peace and quiet, so Li Mo took Yuigahama Yui and left the school directly, took the tram to Shimokitazawa.

"Asakura-san, are you planning to invite that band to perform at the Founder's Festival?"

On the train, Yuigahama Yui asked curiously.

"It was mainly the guitar player that got to me a little bit."

Li Mo pondered, "If they can successfully complete the run-in, then the whole band can be together. Otherwise, maybe we can only ask the guitarist to perform solo."

To be honest, Li Mo didn't think they could get used to each other in such a short time. Moreover, judging from the previous situation, the band couldn't even be considered a complete band - they didn't even have a lead singer!

However, the Founder's Festival is not a formal live event. Such events have certain revenue requirements, so the bands that can perform on stage must have accumulated some fans and popularity, which can drive ticket sales.

But the Founder's Festival is just a simple school activity, so there are naturally no requirements in this regard. So as long as they can get along to a certain extent and most students can't hear any off-tune or strange things, then it will naturally be considered as meeting the requirements. In this process, as long as Goto Ichiri can perform at his normal level, it will be a gain.

“Are all livehouses basements like this?”

When she saw the entrance of STARRY, Yuigahama Yui screamed in surprise.

"No, this is just a special case."

Li Mo said this and walked inside with the girl.

The basement wasn't narrow, but the subtle and somewhat depressing atmosphere still made Yuigahama Yui feel a little uncomfortable.

"It feels a bit... well, cramped and dim? This must be a special case, right?"

"...Unfortunately, this is the current situation of most livehouses. Although those more magnificent and luxurious livehouses do exist, there is no need for us to go there."

Li Mo explained: "It's like the term 'underground idol'. The word 'underground' also means 'not yet debuted' or 'not in the public eye', but it also includes the meaning of performing in underground livehouses and other places."

"Underground idol...ah, I remember there was a very famous idol back then. Although clearly an underground idol, it seemed to be more popular than some of the current idols who had debuted. I heard that they were originally going to appear on TV, but something unexpected happened and they graduated directly. I think their name was..."

Yuigahama Yui thought hard.

"Hoshino Ai."

"Ugh-?!"

Yuigahama Yui was frightened by Yamada Ryo who appeared behind her and started talking.

The other person showed no remorse for scaring a stranger. Instead, he pulled out a bunch of merchandise from somewhere and said, "All Hoshino Ai merchandise is out of print now. Do you want any? I can sell it to you at a friendly price."

"I'm not interested in idols. Compared to that, how's your band's ensemble going?"

Li Mo ignored the idol peripherals that had a zero added to the end of the original price and asked Yamada Ryo.

“There is still a lot of room for improvement.”

Yamada Ryo said.

"So there's no progress at all?"

Li Mo said without hesitation.

"Not really. Pochi can already perform in front of others, and he's become a lot more cheerful. If he keeps developing like this, he might end up having the same character as Hongxia in a couple of days."

Yamada Ryo said: "My guitar skills are a bit bad, and it feels even worse than my first live performance."

Li Mo looked surprised.

Cheerful? That Goto Ichiri? Are you kidding me?

"What weird things are you saying again, Liang?"

Ijichi Hongxia also came to STARRY with a backpack. She first tapped Yamada Ryo's forehead gently, and then said to Li Mo: "Don't mind it. Although Bochi-chan's guitar skills are a bit... well, she is improving very quickly!"
