Mizuno Ai smiled slightly, lowered her head to adjust her breathing, and continued: "Actually, after I was injured, I was really worried for a while. I was worried that I might never be able to dance, sing, or stand on the stage again..."
The audience suddenly became quiet, and many fans pricked up their ears and listened attentively.
"But it was your messages, letters, and encouragement that kept me going."
"Whenever I felt the strain of rehabilitation and wanted to give up, I would read your messages of encouragement... It is because of you that I can come back here, stand on this stage, and face today's performance with all of you."
Mizuno Ai's genuine emotions brought tears to the eyes of many people in the audience, and the online audiences also flooded the screen with comments.
Mizuno Ai took a deep breath, paused, and her eyes suddenly softened.
"Also... I want to especially thank a very important person. If it weren't for his care, I wouldn't have been able to recover so quickly."
When Taku Hoshikawa in the backstage heard this, his heart suddenly tightened.
Oh no, is Xiao Ai planning to say her own name?!
If she suddenly said her name on the stage, even if she didn't disclose her relationship with her, it would probably cause an uproar in the audience.
There will be countless fans who will dig deep into the relationship between the two. If something is really dug out, I am afraid that Mizuno Ai will be "inflamed" immediately, she will be forced to retire, and she will be caught up in the storm of public opinion.
Taku Hoshikawa held his breath and concentrated, his heart instantly tense to the extreme, for fear that she would confess to him on the stage regardless of the consequences.
Then what you will get is not a surprise, but a shock.
At this moment, Mizuno Ai on the stage suddenly blinked, smiled, and changed the subject: "The person I want to thank is - my agent, Ms. Hasegawa!"
"If it weren't for her meticulous care over such a long time, I wouldn't be able to stand on the stage so soon. I'm really grateful to her! Everyone, can you give Ms. Hasegawa a round of applause?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience burst into warm applause and cheers.
In the backstage, Taku Hoshikawa secretly breathed a sigh of relief, a smile of helplessness and relief on his face.
I didn't expect Xiao Ai to dare to tease me...
After this performance is over, I must teach her a "deep" lesson.
Chapter 305: I once thought about ending it all.
I didn’t expect Xiao Ai to thank me on the stage...Hasegawa’s eyes suddenly filled with tears.
However, she soon realized that these words might have been said deliberately for Hoshikawa Taku to hear, just to tease him.
After all, if we really have to say who has helped Xiao Ai the most, it would be him besides herself.
Hasegawa wiped the corner of his eye gently with his hand, turned to look at Hoshikawa Taku beside him, and smiled with a hint of mischief:
"Mr. Xingchuan, did you notice that Xiao Ai was deliberately teasing you on stage? She knew she couldn't mention your name on stage, but she chose to talk around it."
Hoshikawa Taku laughed and shook his head: "It's okay, if Xiao Ai really said my name on the stage, then I would have a headache."
After thanking her agent, Mizuno Ai talked about her mental journey during this period and some interesting things that happened during her rehabilitation.
After taking advantage of this chat time to rest, she adjusted her breathing, smiled brightly, and then started singing and dancing on the stage again.
After singing and dancing for two songs, Mizuno Ai breathed slightly and looked at the sea of fluorescent lights below the stage with a smile on her face. There were fine beads of sweat on her face, but she was still in high spirits.
She gently raised the microphone and said to the audience: "I'm sorry, everyone, because my body has just recovered and I haven't fully recovered to the state where I can sing the whole show."
"So, for the next part, I've invited a few special friends to help me with the performance and make the stage more lively tonight~"
She paused, tilted her head slightly, and looked at the audience with a sly smile.
"And... I think quite a few people here are here for them, right?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the audience below the stage suddenly became excited and shouted out the names of those bands.
"Diamond Stardust!"
“Extension cord!”
"It has thorns but no thorns!"
Although the last shout was a little weak, it was also full of passion. Several loyal fans shouted with all their might, which was particularly conspicuous.
Mizuno Ai chuckled at the sound and said playfully, "Oh, it looks like everyone knows who it is. Then, next, let's invite everyone from the "Extension Line" band to perform for everyone!"
As soon as the words fell, the stage lights switched quickly, the main lights dimmed, and the side stage turned into a blazing red light.
Backstage, Aine, Pochi, Meowth, Lupa, and Satoshi, who were already ready, shook hands tightly, exchanged firm glances, and took a deep breath.
"Let's go, let's go on stage!"
Aine took the lead, her expression extremely determined.
As the red lights danced to the rhythm, the big screen on the side of the stage lit up the logo of the band "Extension Cord", and the audience burst into cheers again.
Five silhouettes gradually emerged in the light.
Drummer Miao Meng, lead singer Ai Yin, bassist Lupa, keyboardist Xiaozhi, and... the figure dressed in a black windbreaker, wearing a guitar devil mask, and holding a black guitar - Guitar Hero!
As the most popular member of the band, Boqi was specially arranged to appear last, and his silhouette outlined by the overhead light was particularly eye-catching.
She was still wearing a mask and her face was never revealed, but the fans' cheers reached their peak when she appeared on stage!
The guitar hero waved hello from the stage.
Next, as she hit a heavy note on the electric guitar, the surging rhythm swept the whole audience - the famous song "Life Will Change" of [Extension Cord] sounded on the stage!
Aiyin stepped forward, her voice loud and penetrating.
Miao Meng played the drums and made cute expressions to the audience, which attracted a lot of interaction from the audience.
Lupa and Xiaozhi cooperated well with precise beats, and their melody filled the whole song with a youthful and rebellious atmosphere.
After the deliberate promotion by Taku Hoshikawa in the past few months, this song has already become popular in the circle, and many people in the audience can hum along with the melody.
Fans in the front row of the stage danced to the rhythm almost the entire time, waving their glow sticks like rolling waves.
The live broadcast screen constantly switched between close-ups of the stage and the audience, and the comments scrolled frantically:
[This is the song I'm most looking forward to. I really hope to be able to perform it live!]
Although the lead singer's voice is a bit immature, his guitar hero aura makes up for it.
[Guitar Hero is amazing! I wish I could see her true face!]
With the strong stage effects and the energetic performance of the five people, the atmosphere in the venue continued to heat up, the fans responded loudly, and the scene was extremely enthusiastic.
At this time, in the VIP seating area below the stage, Takamatsu Deng's eyes were also fixed on Aine in the center of the stage.
Under the light, Aine seemed to be glowing, with a confident look and a calm pace.
Her voice, stage presence, emotional appeal... all blossomed perfectly on this stage.
Gao Songdeng felt a trace of sour envy in his heart.
She is indeed becoming more and more dazzling.
Although we are both lead singers, I have never been able to stand on the stage as confidently and radiantly as she does.
Maybe...Aine is right, she is indeed more suitable for the current band.
If he still wanted to get close to her, the best way was to join the Xingchuan Agency and become her "fellow camp."
At this moment, looking at them on the stage, Takamatsu Deng became even more determined about the idea in his heart - he must join the agency and stand on a higher stage with Aine!
Shiina Riki, who was standing next to Takamatsu Deng, also had a complicated expression. She sat upright, holding a glow stick in her hand, but hardly waved it.
Looking at the tacit cooperation of the five people on the stage, especially Aine's bright and determined smile, Li Xi recalled the moments of their joint struggles in the past.
The mixed emotions in my heart surged up again, feeling emotional, lost, and a hint of shame and regret.
I really shouldn't have been so harsh on Aine in the beginning. After all, she was just a novice when it came to guitar.
Was a big part of the reason she left because she couldn't stand the high intensity of the pressure?
Is she still blaming herself now?
After I join the agency...I'll apologize to Aine.
Li Xi also didn't want the relationship between him and Aine to remain awkward.
Unlike Takamatsu Touma and Shiina Tatsuki, Suyo did not feel lost. She was just simply happy for Aine.
As Aiyin's best friend now, she was filled with joy and excitement as she watched the energetic girl on the stage.
A teardrop quietly slipped down the corner of her eye, and she quickly raised her hand to wipe it away, but a happy smile was on her face.
As for Kaname Rakuna who is at the very side...
She was awake when the show started, and was watching the performance on stage intently, like a cat chasing a laser red dot, her eyes fixed on the stage.
At this moment, she held her chin with great interest, staring at Chihaya Aine on the stage with sparkling eyes, as if she had discovered a new world, and muttered to herself: "Interesting woman... She is getting more and more interesting."
……
As the last note of the Extension Line band's song fell, the audience waved glow sticks and screams rang out one after another.
The Extension Line Band performed two songs on stage, each of which received a strong response.
Aiyin and the others looked at the audience's reactions, and everyone was extremely excited. Their efforts over the past few days had finally paid off.
They haven't sung to their heart's content yet, but this is Mizuno Ai's stage, and they can't steal the show, so they have to stop here.
Aine slowly walked towards the center of the stage.
She raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, a bright smile on her face. She picked up the microphone, panting, and her clear voice echoed throughout the audience:
"Thank you everyone! Thank you so much for watching Xiao Ai's concert today. We were invited by Xiao Ai to be on stage as guest performers. Did you enjoy our performance?"
Before he finished speaking, the audience responded with cheers.
The live broadcast room was also filled with comments such as "Extension cords are the best!", "Aine is so sweet!", and "All five of them are so handsome and cool!"
Aine's eyes swept across the audience, and finally stopped at the left side of the auditorium.
Takamatsu Touma, Shiina Tatsuki, Nagasaki Suyo, and Kaname Rakuna... several of her former companions who had fought side by side with her were sitting there.
A trace of nostalgia flashed across Aine’s eyes, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised as she continued:
"Today, several of my former bandmates are here. Even though we're no longer in the same band, I still sincerely wish them happiness and success!"
As for the band "Mygo", which disbanded after only one performance in the Livehouse, almost no one present knew about it except those in the know.
However, they all cooperated and gave some good-natured applause.
Aine didn't bother to look at the expressions of her former teammates. After hearing Hoshikawa Taku's reminder that it was soon Mizuno Ai's turn to perform again, she took a deep breath, smiled brightly, and waved to the audience, shouting:
"Everyone, we'll be leaving now! Now, please continue to enjoy Xiao Ai's performance!"
Miao Meng took this opportunity to playfully make her signature "meow meow meow" gesture towards the camera and shouted to the audience: "Everyone, don't forget me! Follow Miao Meng dear meow, follow Miao Meng dear, thank you meow!"
Aine glanced at Meowmu helplessly.
This sentence was not said during the rehearsal... Miao Meng is really good at finding shots for herself.
Miao Meng raised his chin proudly, feeling completely fearless.
Now she is Taku Hoshikawa's lover. Although she cannot steal the show, can't she add some drama to the mix?
She is not afraid of being punished by Hoshikawa Taku.
At worst... at worst she would just tie herself up with the "tortoise shell/binding" and apologize to Hoshikawa Taku!
Soon, the blazing red light shining on the Extension Cord Band slowly dimmed, and the stage lights quickly alternated, turning into a cool and soft blue-white light, refocusing on the center of the stage.
After finishing her preparations, Mizuno Ai returned to the stage.
This time, she changed into a pure white dress. Her slender figure looked holy and pure under the light, as if she was a white elf that appeared on the stage.
She did not continue singing and dancing, but stood quietly in the center of the stage, holding the microphone with a focused expression, and slowly sang a soulful and low lyrical song as the accompaniment sounded.
The name of this song is "I Once Thought of Ending It All."
This song is the "killer weapon" prepared for her by Taku Hoshikawa, and it is also an original song in this world.
When Xiao Ai saw the lyrics, she was immediately attracted.
"I once thought about ending it all because my heart was empty."
"If you cry out of emptiness, you must be longing for fulfillment..."
Oh my god, this is exactly me singing!
An indescribable resonance welled up in Mizuno Ai's heart. In order to sing this song well, she put in a lot of effort during this period of time.
