Do you like humans that much, Chihaya Aine?

　"That's right, let's demonstrate it to them."

　Following Chu Pingfang's arrangement, the drummer of the RAS band, Sato Mashiki, started playing directly.

　PAREO served as a supporting keyboardist for Aine and the others for a period of time, and the RAS band was also familiar with the song "M87". Although they did not have the copyright to the song and could not use it for commercial purposes, there was no problem in covering and performing it privately.

　Soon, Shiina Riki realized the gap between himself and a truly professional drummer. It was the same song, and he had spent a lot of time practicing, but the performance was completely different from that of the RAS drummer.

　It's like Ultraman fighting a small monster. The two sides are not on the same level at all, and the gap is too big.

　As a foreseeable result, the confidence that Shiina Riki had worked so hard to build up in recent times was completely shattered.

　Seeing that Li Xi's eyes had lost their luster, Chihaya Aine quickly stood up and said a few good words. If she really hit Li Xi so hard that she lost confidence, her band would be broken up.

　"You don't have to be skilled to be in a band. As long as the band members can have fun together, isn't that enough?"

　"If you were a school band, it would be fine to say that, but Chihaya Aine, your band is aiming for a professional debut, right?"

　"Forehead..."

　Aiyin's words were directly rejected by Chu Pingfang, but cat girls are basically good people, so Chu Pingfang did not say anything absolute.

　"But you're right. A band doesn't necessarily have to be skilled to play. Those guys in PPP, even though I don't want to admit it, their songs are truly moving."

　When talking about the band PPP, we cannot avoid the fact that Chu Pingfang once invited PPP's guitarist Hua Yuan Duohui to RAS as a support guitarist, which almost caused PPP to break up.

　But what happened in the past is in the past. Didn’t the RAS band almost break up? It seems that if a girl band doesn’t break up once or twice, it would be embarrassed to call itself a Bandoli band.

　"'M87' is a good song. In fact, the accompaniment requirements for this song are not very demanding. It can be said to be very simple."

　"But on the other hand, this song has very high requirements for the lead singer. Tsuburaya Eiji chose you as the lead singer for this song, and PAREO also said that you sing very well."

　"Sing it for me, PAREO, you go and play the keyboard support."

　All four members of the M78 band are here. Shoko Toyokawa hasn't arrived yet, but that doesn't prevent someone from taking her place. PAREO, the keyboardist of the RAS band, is an old acquaintance of Aine and the others, so he can just help with the accompaniment.

　Chihaya Aine took a deep breath. Has her own test moment come? Don’t be afraid...go all out!

　"M-87"...a song belonging to Ultraman. Only in this song, Chihaya Aine will never lose to anyone.

　.....

　"Everyone is here."

　"Thank you, Rikka-senpai."

　When Shoko Toyokawa arrived at Tsuburaya's office a little later, she found that the office was empty except for Mr. Nakamura, the security guard on night duty.

　Mr. Nakamura told her that the other members of the band had gone to visit their neighbors upstairs. Just when Shoko Toyokawa didn't know what to do, she met Rika Asahi.

　RAS band's guitarist Rika Asahi is also a second-year student at Hanaoka and a senior of Chihaya Aine and Toyokawa Shoko.

　Under the leadership of Rikka, Shoko Toyokawa also came to visit the RAS studio, and just at this time the M78 band started playing.

　The singing voice of Chihaya Aine, a voice that no one can replace, a song that only those who can empathize with her can sing.

　"Chihaya Aine, you're...very good!"

　At this time, Chu Pingfang finally understood why Eiji Tsuburaya chose Chihaya Aion as the lead singer of the band. Although her singing skills were not very good, the emotions and meaning contained in this song could only be sung out by Chihaya Aion.

　Volume 1: 33. The Fate of the Stress Monster

　The ensemble performance of "M87" ended perfectly. Seeing this scene, Shoko Toyokawa felt a little embarrassed, as if she was redundant.

　"Xiaoxiang, you're finally here!"

　see

　Toyokawa Shoko and Asahi Rikka came together, and Chihaya Aine waved and greeted her happily.

　"I think I came at the wrong time?"

　"No, you came just in time."

　Aiyin, who has the characteristics of a social cow, didn't care whether the other party was embarrassed or not. She directly grabbed Toyokawa Shoko's hand and pulled her over.

　"The light has been waiting for you for a long time."

　"Hello, Xiaoxiang..."

　"Deng, why are you here?"

　"Hey! Toyokawa Shoko, how are you talking to the light?"

　The lantern guard Li Xi became unhappy when he heard Toyokawa Shoko's words. It turned out that Toyokawa Shoko was such an annoying woman.

　But this place is the territory of the RAS band, and now it is Lord Chuchu's turn to speak.

　"Looks like everyone in your band is here. In that case~!"

　"In return for the favor, I'll let you listen to RAS's performance."

　"LOCK, has LAYER arrived?"

　"LAYER will be here soon."

　"very good."

　LOCK is the nickname of Rikka Asahi. Of course, people who are more familiar with her will call her Rikka. LAYER is the lead singer and bassist of the RAS band, and is also the person Hailing wants to meet.

　Soon, Hezo Ruiyi also arrived here by elevator, and all members of the RAS band gathered together.

　Lead singer and bassist: Hezo Ruiyi——Band name: LAYER

　Drummer: Sato Masuki——Band name: MASKING

　Guitarist: Asahi Rikka——Band name: LOCK

　Keyboardist: Niohara Rei Oona——Band name: PAREO

　DJ: Zhiyou Zhute——Band name: CHU

　All members of the RAS band have gathered, and it's time to show their strength as a professional girl band.

　"The song is called "R.I.O.T."!"

　"R·I·O·T", the famous song of the RAS band, is a highly difficult song of professional standard. Both the lead singer and the accompaniment are of impeccable top standard.

　It can be said that apart from losing to Roselia in terms of hard power, the RAS band is undoubtedly the top level of Bandoli girl bands. It is a truly professional girl band.

　"Bravo!"

　Chihaya Aine couldn't help but clap her hands. She now knew how big the gap was between herself and the professional level. It turned out that she still needed to work hard on her singing skills.

　"No wonder Hailing, you're such a fan of the bassist of RAS. He's truly incredible!"

　Shiina Riki was also amazed. She was familiar with many great bassists. There was no doubt that Hachiman Kairin's bass level was also professional, but the bassist of RAS was able to perform professional-level bass and sing lead vocals at the same time. This strength was really terrifying.

　At this time, there is no need to make fun of the bassist. The sound of the bass is dispensable. The songs of the RAS band are closer to rock music, and the importance of the bassist is unquestionable.

　RAS’s performance was very exciting. At least now Aine and the others know what level a professional girl band is at. It’s a good thing that they have a direction to study hard.

　Next was the five-member ensemble practice of the M78 band, but they did not return to Tsuburaya Office because Chu Pingfang kept them behind.

　"I heard from LOCK that you guys are going to perform live, so why don't you practice here and let me, the music producer, give you some pointers."

　Chu Pingfang has a somewhat arrogant personality and attitude, but her ability level is beyond doubt. As a genuine genius girl, Zhu Shou Zhiyou skipped grades because of her excellent grades and completed her studies early, so she had time to devote herself to the work of a music producer.

　Thus, the M78 band's guided practice time began.

　In addition to the five people practicing ensemble together, Chu Pingfang also asked each person to play for her individually. She specifically pointed out each person's problems. It can be said that she was diligently helping everyone find their problems.

　"Huh~~ This is the first time I've met someone who's more pressured than Lixi."

　"What do you mean I'm a pressure person?"

　Hearing Aine's words, Li Xi became unhappy. Why did he have to listen to this pink-haired girl saying bad things about him during the half-time break?

　"Hehe~ It's nothing."

　Aiyin, who managed to get by with a silly smile, has been rehearsing for a while now, and now everyone is taking a break to relax.

　Hachiman Kailin went to talk to RAS's bassist and Zou Ruiyi, which can be considered a fan-idol meeting.

　Lenai set his eyes on Chuchu and even took away Chu Pingfang's beef jerky to eat, which made Chu Pingfang so angry that he stomped his feet. Cats are attracted to each other.

　Toyokawa Shoko's words...She was sitting alone in the corner, not knowing what she was thinking. Deng seemed to want to talk to her, but didn't dare.

　"Deng seems to want to talk to Toyokawa Shoko. Go and help Deng."

　"Ah~ It's me again."

　Aiyin couldn't help but sigh, she was just a hardworking person, the members of the CRYCHIC band twisted their

　It's not good. Why on earth did they get together?

　There was no other way. Since it was Riki's request, Aine could only act as a wingman.

　She found the lamp hiding in the corner and was afraid to approach it, and pushed it directly in front of Toyokawa Shoko.

　"Deng, you have something to say to Toyokawa Shoko, right?"

　"I'm not... I didn't..."

　Takamatsu Deng was afraid and timidly waved his hands in denial. Fortunately, Toyokawa Shoko was not completely unkind. After seeing Takamatsu Deng coming to her, the expression on her face softened a little.

　"Deng, do you have anything to say?"

　"Well...it's all my fault. I didn't work hard enough, which made you angry, Xiaoxiang, and caused the CRYCHIC band to disband."

　"I said, this is not your fault, it's my personal fault."

　When she heard the topic of CRYCHIC band, Toyokawa Shoko's expression became cold again. She really didn't want to mention the sad things in the past.

　"If that's what you want to talk about, then go ahead."

　"Hey! How do you talk to the lamp?"

　Li Xi, who was not far away, heard what Toyokawa Shoko said. How could she bear it any longer? If the light was not still there, she really wanted to severely punish Toyokawa Shoko.

　"You're the one who needs to work the hardest, Shiina Riki. Didn't you hear what that music producer said about you?"

　"Hey...Toyokawa Shoko, you bastard!"

　Although Li Xi was hit in the sore spot, no one in the M78 band had any major problems. Whether it was Hai Ling or Lenai, they all had professional-level technical skills.

　Even this guy named Toyokawa Shoko, although her attitude was not very correct, her level as a keyboard player was recognized by Chuchu.

　Only Dulixi is the one who really needs to work the hardest, even if Aine is better than her.

　Li Xi was so angry that he trembled. He was a pressure monster and there would be a day when he would be pressured by others.

　Volume 1: 34.TAKE ME HIGHER

　The atmosphere became a little tense for a moment, and Shiina Tatsuki, who wanted to stand up for Deng, was pressured back by Toyokawa Shoko.

　Seeing that the group was about to explode, Chihaya Aine quickly spoke up to change the subject.

　"Oh right! There's a new song, let's practice it."

　"We gathered everyone in the band together today, mainly because we have a new song that needs to be practiced."

　Seeing Chihaya Aine change the subject to the stairs, Toyokawa Shoko and Shiina Riki both wisely shut their mouths and stopped talking.

　"What? There's a new song, let me see it!"

　When Chu Pingfang heard that the M78 band had a new song to practice, she ran over immediately. She was willing to lend PAREO to the M78 band as a support keyboardist in order to obtain the right to use the song from Tsuburaya Office.

　Of course, commercial use is definitely not possible, and it can only be practiced and covered privately, but this is enough for Chu Pingfang.

　As a professional music producer, she understands the quality of the songs produced by Tsuburaya Productions. It's not a question of whether they are difficult or not, but that they are the kind of songs that will definitely become popular.

　Chu Pingfang is a good boy who follows the rules. Even if he kicks over a trash can in a fit of anger, he will honestly put the trash back in.

　When practicing or covering songs produced by Tsuburaya Productions, she has to seek the consent of the person concerned.

　However, this kind of good-behaved child has always been the Earthling child that Mephilas admires and likes.

　After establishing a friendly communication relationship, Mefilas promised that after the M78 band released the new song, the RAS band could use the songs produced by Tsuburaya Office commercially, and of course the profit sharing would be distributed according to the proportion of the contract.

　"Let me see? The song is called 'TAKE ME HIGHER'."

　"It feels like a very passionate song, but... I always feel like this song isn't meant for a girl band, it would be more suitable for a boy band."

　As a professional musician, Chu Pingfang immediately saw the key to the song "TAKE ME HIGHER". Although women are not necessarily inferior to men, the difference between men's voices and women's voices is too great.

　"Can I try?"

　"Of course, no problem. Please help me demonstrate it, everyone from RAS."
