Do you like humans that much, Chihaya Aine?

　"LAYER, could you try a more masculine voice?"

　"no problem."

　RAS band's lead singer, Mizue Kazue, is a very androgynous woman. In Japanese slang, she is a "jiegui".

　Mizue Wasou, who has excellent singing skills, can change her voice to sing like a voice actor, but this is something Aine cannot do.

　The members of the RAS band all have professional qualities. After getting the music score of the song, they quickly practiced it individually and were able to perform together.

　The Japanese version of Ultraman Tiga's theme song "TAKE ME HIGHER" begins.

　Passionate songs, songs that break through the darkness and bring hope to people, this is Disney

　Ultraman Ga's OP.

　"It feels... so hard."

　Shiina Riki was a little hesitant. This song was very different from "M87". The accompaniment of "M87" was relatively simple, and the main pressure was on the lead singer. As long as Chihaya Aine, the lead singer, did not perform poorly, there would be no problem with "M87".

　But the song "TAKE ME HIGHER" is different. As a song full of enthusiasm and hope, the accompaniment rhythm is very tight, especially the drum accompaniment is particularly prominent.

　If the drummer, Li Xi, fails, you can tell immediately what the problem is.

　“Drumming~Fun!”

　After the performance, RAS band's drummer Sato Masuki let out a long breath. It had been a long time since she had played such passionate drum music.

　As the drummer of RAS, Sato Masuki has very good playing skills, but once she gets into the mood, she will start difficult improvisations, which used to cause chaos for the people performing with her.

　But the members of RAS are all at a professional level, they can control Sato Masuki's impromptu performance during the performance, and the members of the RAS band complement each other.

　“It still doesn’t feel right.”

　However, He Zou Ruiyi, the lead singer of the RAS band, shook her head. She used a neutral, masculine voice to sing the song as Chu Pingfang requested, but He Zou Ruiyi always felt that something was missing and she couldn't grasp the essence of the song.

　"Is it like this again...Chihaya Aine, you try it."

　"Eh? Let me try!"

　"Yes, the members of RAS will accompany you."

　Mizue Kazuo gave up the lead vocal position and concentrated on playing the bass, while Chihaya Aine held the microphone and took a deep breath. Why was she suddenly asked to take the stage?

　But I can't care about all that now. RAS started playing again, and the accompaniment of "TAKE ME HIGHER" sounded.

　"Quiet かに朝焼けが~大地をつつんでく~"

　"いつもと変わらぬ夜明け~远かに続いてく缲り回しの中で~"

　......

　"Gonna TIGA! Take me, take me higher~"

　After the performance, Chu Pingfang fell into silence. Just like before, Chihaya Aine's singing skills were not good at all, but she could always sing with a different feeling.

　"That's really weird. The style of the song is clearly more suitable for men to sing, there's no doubt about that."

　"But why do you sing it so well, Chihaya Aine? Could it be that my level is not good enough?"

　Chu Pingfang couldn't help but start to doubt whether there was something wrong with her level as a professional musician. Why was her judgment different from the actual situation?

　"Hehe~ Could it be that I'm very talented as a lead singer?"

　The vain Aiyin couldn't help but feel proud when she heard Chu Pingfang's words.

　"No, your singing skills as a lead singer are terrible. The only aspect of your singing that deserves praise is the emotion you bring to it."

　Aiyin's fantasy was shattered by Chu Pingfang's words. She still needs to work harder.

　"It seems this song is only suitable for you, Chihaya Aine, to sing, just like M. Hachichi."

　Chu Pingfang had asked He Zou Ruiyi to cover the song M87 before, but the result was the same. They could only sing the melody but lacked emotion.

　The most important thing in singing is emotion. Without emotion, it is difficult to arouse empathy from the audience.

　Music is a way of communication that transcends language barriers and conveys emotions. Language has national boundaries, but music does not.

　Even if there is no common language, perhaps Earthlings can express their feelings through music and make friends with aliens.

　Volume 1: 35. Detective Aine

　I have to say that it was a very correct decision to gather all the band members to practice today. Everyone in the RAS band was willing to help and point out problems, and the members of the M78 band all gained a lot.

　Aine learned a lot of singing techniques from Mizue Wasou, and the same is true for Tatsuki Shiina. Her drumming skills are basically self-taught.

　RAS band's drummer Sato Masuki taught Li Xi many techniques and habits of professional drummers, and Li Xi learned a lot overnight.

　"Actually, your drumming skills aren't too bad. You just don't have a good teacher. You must be self-taught, right?"

　"Well... I learned to play the drums by myself by slowly learning from the videos on the Internet."

　"Very good. Your hard work deserves praise. The drum set is the soul of the band."

　The soul of the band, the guitarist would also like to say so, but for the band, the drum set is like the backbone of a person, it is absolutely indispensable.

　After all, the RAS band had been without a guitarist for a while, and they could rely on the bassist Ryoi Waso to improvise to perform, but without the drummer Masuki Sato, the band would have no way to perform on stage.

　"What about you, Masuki-senpai?

　Learned to play the drums."

　"As for me, my dad was a drummer when he was young. I was influenced by him since I was young, so I started playing drums naturally."

　"That's great! I didn't want to live under my sister's shadow forever, so I learned to play the drums."

　Now is the time for the band to communicate. There are many things worth learning from the members of the RAS band. Even Lenai Maomao, who usually keeps to himself, will exchange guitar experiences with Liuliu, the guitarist of the RAS band.

　The only person who didn't fit in was Shoko Toyokawa. She really couldn't immerse herself in the atmosphere of this band exchange.

　When Xiangzi thought of the shabby rental house and the drunken and bastard old man, he lost interest even more.

　"Xiao Xiang, are you okay?"

　Seeing Toyokawa Shoko sitting alone next to him, Takamatsu Deng went over to greet her with concern, but Toyokawa Shoko didn't want to appreciate it at all.

　"Don't get involved with me anymore. I'm no longer a member of the band CRYCHIC."

　"But...even if CRYCHIC disbands, I still want to continue being friends with Xiaoxiang."

　The words had already been spoken, and Gao Songdeng mustered up the courage for once and told Toyokawa Shoko what was in her heart.

　“Although CRYCHIC brought us all together, CRYCHIC won’t be together forever.”

　"Even if CRYCHIC is gone, I still want to be friends with Xiaoxiang and everyone else."

　The true words from Takamatsu Deng were explosive. She was no longer obsessed with forming a band for life. Perhaps it was Aine who changed her during this period. Deng got to know many seniors in the band and heard a lot about girl bands from them.

　Forming a band for life, this sentence carries a lot of weight and cannot be said casually. If someone is really willing to keep this promise, can Takamatsu Deng guarantee that she will not change?

　At this moment, Toyokawa Shoko's little pearls almost fell from her eyes, and she turned back into the soft and sticky Xiaoxiang, but she still held back her tears and spoke cold words in a trembling voice.

　"That's all. I'm a member of the M78 band now, and I still have to keep practicing."

　After saying this, Toyokawa Shoko carried Takamatsu Deng away on her back. I guess she was really wiping the little pearls off her face.

　"Xiao Xiang..."

　Gao Songdeng looked at Toyokawa Shoko's shoulders which were obviously trembling. She didn't know what to say next and could only leave Shoko's side in disappointment.

　"There is indeed a problem!"

　After witnessing all this, Chihaya Aine felt more and more that something was wrong. Toyokawa Shoko was such a twisted guy, and there must be some hidden reason behind her withdrawal from CRYCHIC.

　"I understand!"

　Chihaya Aine suddenly realized what was going on with the hammer in her hand, and Shiina Riki, who happened to be standing nearby, felt puzzled.

　"What do you understand?"

　"You said that Toyokawa Shoko is the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa Group, right?"

　"Yes what's the matter?"

　"Based on the countless romance dramas I've watched, it must have been Toyokawa Shoko's father who didn't allow her to form a band with common people, so she had no choice but to quit CRYCHIC."

　"Huh? You have an overactive imagination."

　"But isn't that how it's played out in TV dramas? The daughter of a wealthy family plays in a band and doesn't do her job properly, and ends up being severely reprimanded by her family elders. In the end, they even threaten the band members, and the daughter has no choice but to quit the band with tears in her eyes."

　"Hiss...that makes some sense!"

　After hearing Chihaya Aine's analysis, Shiina Riki's thoughts went back to that rainy night when Toyokawa Shoko had been out of contact for several days and hadn't come to practice. As a result, as soon as she showed up, she said she wanted to quit the band.

　Judging from the situation at the time, Toyokawa Shoko came in the rain, and she must have encountered something. If Shiina Riki had not been angry at the time, she might have noticed more things.

　"By the way, Mu's reaction was a bit strange. He actually said something like, 'I've never felt happy about forming a band.'"

　"Even when she's with everyone, she often smiles. That guy must be saying something against his will to protect Toyokawa Shoko."

　Wakaba Mutsu and Toyokawa Shoko were childhood sweethearts. If anything happened in Toyokawa Shoko's family, Wakaba Mutsu would definitely know about it. No wonder the attitudes of these two people were so strange at that time.

　"Wait a minute, that's a bit weird?"

　"Have you deduced any new clues?"

　After hearing the analysis of the famous detective Chihaya Aine, Shiina Riki hurriedly asked, but Aine bit her fingers in confusion at this time.

　"If the Toyokawa Group doesn't allow Xiangzi to play in a band, then why did she join our band?"

　"Didn't she sign a formal contract with the firm?"

　"Hmm...it's a bit strange indeed. I'll ask the president tomorrow."

　Chihaya Aine decided to consult Mefilas about this matter tomorrow. Now Toyokawa Shoko has joined the M78 band, although she doesn't know what she is.

　situation, but Aiyin has the responsibility and obligation to clear the mines to avoid her band from breaking up.

　The break is almost over, let's continue practicing.

　Tonight's practice lasted until late at night, so everyone stayed here overnight. Originally, Aiyin and the others wanted to go to the office to find a place to rest and sleep, but Chu Pingfang said that his house was big enough and they could stay there.

　Just like that, Aine and the others spent a very happy night.

　Volume 1: 36. The moment of destiny

　"Ugh..."

　Sighing is not in Nagasaki Suyo's character, but she couldn't help but sigh again.

　"Ah...why did it become like this?"

　If anyone has an alien who eats and drinks for free at home, everyone would sigh.

　Although Nagasaki Suyo really wanted to call the Japanese government to report that there was an alien who was eating and drinking for free in her home.

　But considering the difference in combat power between the Metrons and the Earthlings, I'm afraid only Ultraman can defeat them.

　"Su Shi, are you worried?"

　Ruoye Mu rarely speaks in front of Su Shi. She is like a puppet at ordinary times. No matter how many questions Su Shi asks about Xiaoxiang, Mu will remain expressionless and won't say a word.

　Perhaps it was because Mu sensed that Su Shi was worried last time, and she had been absent-minded recently, so Mu took the initiative to care about her and greet her.

　"Thank you for your concern, Xiaomu, but I want to know if Xiaoxiang has contacted you?"

　"..."

　The silent little cucumber is back, the familiar world is back, and this familiar sense of gravity is back.

　"So there's still no news about Xiaoxiang..."

　Nagasaki Motoyo sighed and returned to her absent-minded state. She should go home as soon as possible to see that guy Metron, so as to prevent this alien from causing any trouble for her.

　"Su Shi, is that weird?"

　Watching Nagasaki Sushi leave, Wakaba Mu hesitated whether to tell Sushi that Xiaoxiang had joined a new band and was about to hold a live performance.

　I always feel that if I tell Su Shi, it will bring trouble to Xiaoxiang, but if I don’t tell Su Shi, her condition is really worrying.

　The hesitant cucumber was caught in a dilemma.

　Back to Chihaya Aine, after the M78 band's training camp ended, she contacted Mefilas the next day to ask about Toyokawa Shoko.

　"Are you worried that Toyokawa Shoko will bring instability to the team? Don't worry about that. I can guarantee it."

　"Then may I ask if Toyokawa Shoko's family forbids her from playing in a band?"

　"Ms. Aine, are you concerned about Toyokawa Shoko's situation?"
