Do you like humans that much, Chihaya Aine?

　"Lixi, I want a cup of coffee and a cup of parfait."

　"Hey... When did I become so familiar with you?"

　Li Xi in front of the counter had a sour face as usual. Aiyin knew that this was her temper and did not take it too seriously. She just showed an intriguing smile.

　"Don't you want to know how the light is doing in Hanegaoka?"

　"You guy..."

　As if he was being held at a disadvantage, Li Xi had no choice but to deliver the things Aine ordered to her.

　"Deng isn't being bullied at school, is he?"

　"No, on the contrary, she is very popular and is the class favorite."

　"That's good."

　"By the way, if you're so concerned about Deng's condition, why don't you go to school at Hanegaoka?"

　"I don't want to go to Yugaoka to study. Is that a problem?"

　"Could it be that your grades aren't that good, Lixi?"

　"You guy!"

　Lixi was furious. Why was this pink-haired woman so annoying? She didn't want to go to Yuqiu to study just because her almighty sister was in Yuqiu, and Lixi didn't want to be compared with her sister.

　"Okay, okay~ It's just a joke."

　"Your joke is very rude, don't you know?"

　"Actually, I stopped by RING to ask you about the lights."

　"What do you want to ask?"

　"About your old band, CRYCHIC."

　When Aine mentioned the name of CRYCHIC, Shiina Riki's face didn't look good.

　"Why are you asking this? CRYCHIC's affairs have nothing to do with you, right?"

　"It really has nothing to do with me, but Deng seems to care a lot. She said that the disbandment of CRYCHIC was her fault. I want to help Deng."

　"It's not Deng's fault! It's clearly that woman's fault, Toyokawa Shoko."

　Speaking of this woman named Toyokawa Shoko, Li Xi felt angry. She disappeared for several days after a disagreement, and there was no response when he contacted her. When she appeared again, she said she wanted to quit the band. This person must be crazy.

　"Toyokawa Shoko?"

　Aiyin secretly noted down the name. It seemed that a lot had happened to the band CRYCHIC.

　"Did Deng always think that CRYCHIC's disbandment was her fault? That's not the case. I need to explain it clearly to Deng."

　"Okay, okay, I'll help tell you that the person I'm waiting for is here."

　After calming down Riki who had gone berserk, Aine waved to a cat named Lenai who had just arrived at the RING store.

　"I ordered you a parfait, eat it quickly before the ice cream melts."

　"Aine, good man!"

　A cat that can be bribed with just a cup of parfait is so easy to deal with.

　Volume 1: 13. Li Xi A went up

　"Are you going to form a band with Wildcat?"

　"Yeah? Any questions?"

　"That's it..."

　After hearing Chihaya Aine's answer, Shiina Riki lowered her head and thought for a while, and suddenly she spoke surprisingly.

　"Is your band still short of a drummer?"

　"Eh?"

　Aiyin was stunned. She didn't expect Lixi to suddenly say such words. What was going on?

　"You want to form a band with me? Is CRYCHIC okay?"

　"I said, CRYCHIC has disbanded, I want to continue playing music, of course I have to find a new band."

　Li Xi, who has been working in the RING store, thinks that the formation and disbanding of girl bands are commonplace. It is not a big deal and there is nothing to worry about.

　"That should be fine, but I still have to ask the president."

　"President? What are you talking about?"

　"Oh, I forgot to tell you, I'm not going to form an ordinary campus band, but a professional idol girl band with the goal of debuting."

　"what?"

　Li Xizheng

　Everyone was stunned, and then Aine gave a general explanation of the idol agency. This time, Riki shook his head violently.

　"No, no, absolutely not!"

　"My level is limited to playing in a school band. I'm still a long way from becoming a professional."

　"I want to take back what I just said. Just pretend I never said it."

　"What does it matter?"

　After finally finding a drummer who had fallen into her trap, how could Aiyin let her go so easily?

　"What's the point of playing in a band if you don't aim to be a professional?"

　"Besides, haven't the seniors from PPP already made it to the Budokan? As long as we work hard, we can definitely do it."

　"this...."

　Li Xi couldn't help but be persuaded by Aine. The reason why she played in a band was because she was compared with her sister in all aspects, which made Li Xi very insecure.

　If I can make it to the professional debut of my band, I won't always be called Shiina Maki's sister. Instead, people will call Maki Shiina Tachiki's sister.

　When Li Xi thought of this, he couldn't help but let his imagination run wild, and it felt like it was not impossible.

　"Then I'll give it a try. If my level can't keep up, I'll quit the band on my own and won't cause you any trouble."

　Although Shiina Riki is under some pressure in her daily life, she is also very strict with herself, so she doesn't need to worry too much about this matter.

　"Great! With Li Xi and Lenai, we now have three members in our band."

　"Is there any position missing in the band? I can help you find a suitable candidate."

　"Lixi, if you are the drummer, then we still need a bassist and a keyboardist."

　"Bass player..."

　Shiina Riki couldn't help but think of a certain bassist mercenary. Her level was more than enough to play professionally, just right.

　"I have a friend who plays bass really well. Can I have her try?"

　"Of course, by the way!" Aine said and took out her cell phone.

　"Let's exchange contact information. By the way, I'll send you the location of the office so that the band can go directly there for practice."

　"it is good."

　After taking out their cell phones and exchanging contact information, Shiina Riki went back to his part-time job. Only then did Aine have time to talk to Lenai Maomao.

　"Did you read the message I sent you on your phone earlier, Lenai?"

　“I didn’t read any of them.”

　Lenna was so confident that even Aine was speechless, but she still had to explain it clearly to Maomao.

　"I've already told Li Xi what I just said. Our band is a girl band that aims to become a professional band."

　"No problem, as long as I can play guitar."

　Lenai the cat doesn't care about such things. The cat just wants to eat parfait and play guitar. Happiness is that simple.

　"Okay...as long as you don't mind."

　At the end of the RING day, Aiyin unexpectedly gained the band's drummer, as well as the bassist recruited by the drummer. Now the only thing missing is a keyboardist. It was really going unexpectedly smoothly.

　.....

　The next day, Aine came to Tsuburaya Office, and Takamatsu Deng came with her.

　"Um...can I really come to a place like this?"

　Deng was a little scared and timid, and her reaction was the same as Aine's. Coming to this seemingly wealthy and high-class place would cause physical discomfort to someone born in a common family.

　"It's okay, just think of it as a visit. Besides, Li Xi wants to see you too."

　"All right..."

　Unable to refuse Aine's invitation, Deng had no choice but to follow her up the elevator.

　After arriving at the Tsuburaya office, the staff members waved and nodded to Chihaya Aine when they saw her.

　It is impossible for Mephilas to be the only one running such a large entertainment agency. He has also hired staff for various positions and runs the business like a legitimate agency.

　"Ms. Suzuki, where is the president?"

　"President Tsuburaya is not here. Miss Aine, what do you want to talk to the president about?"

　"It's nothing serious. I just wanted to tell him about the people I'm considering for forming a band."

　Mefilas was active on Earth, and of course he gave himself an Earthling name as a cover-up, his name was "Eiji Tsuburaya".

　Aine didn’t know what special meaning this name had, but she felt that Mefilas looked very proud, and it was obvious that he liked this name very much.

　But this is not a big deal, Lixi and the others should have arrived.

　After Aine came to the office with Deng, Li Xi had already come in advance with the bassist she mentioned as agreed.

　"lamp!"

　As soon as she saw Takamatsu Deng, Li Xi ran over to greet her without even introducing to Aine who the friend she brought was.

　"Um, I'm Chihaya Aine, the band's founder. You're the bassist friend Riki mentioned, right?"

　"Hello, I'm Hachiman Kailing."

　Hachiman Kailing nodded, introducing herself. She didn't expect that Li Xi would actually ask her to form a band.

　Although this is quite gratifying, I didn't expect that the goal from the beginning was to become a professional. Is Li Xi really okay?

　"Isn't Lenai here yet?"

　Seeing that there was one person missing, Aine couldn't help but feel worried. She knew that the cat wouldn't read the messages on the phone, so she should have brought Lenai over personally.

　However, what Aine didn't expect was that Lenaiju arrived right after that, and she didn't come alone either.

　"We're here. Thank you, Liuliu."

　"It's okay, it's just on the way."

　A weak blue-haired girl with glasses. She is wearing the school uniform of Yugaoka and is a student of the same school as Aine and the others.

　"Eh? Are you Asahi Rikka-senpai?!"

　After hearing a lot of information from the Traffic Light Trio, Aine immediately recognized the girl in the Haneda school uniform.

　"Hello, you are the Aine that Kaoru-senpai mentioned, the one who is going to form a band with Lenai, right?"

　"I'm Asahi Rikka, the guitarist for the band RAS. Our band's base is right upstairs from you."

　"Lena couldn't find this place, so I brought her here on the way. I'm really looking forward to your performance."

　Luo Ye brought a message that the news that Lenai was going to form a band had spread throughout the Bandoli circle. Don't underestimate everyone's network of relationships.

　As the granddaughter of Tsuzuki Shifune, Lenana is a natural born Bandoli saint, and almost everyone in the girl band circle knows her.

　Volume 1: 14. Space Invaders

　Now all four members of the band were present, except for Takamatsu Touma, who was brought here by Aine for the tour.

　"Is this the piece we're supposed to practice?"

　"Yes, the name of the song is 'M87', that's right!"

　I almost forgot the most important thing, Aiyin had to tell Riki and the others.
