Mygo, the band legend of Tokyo handsome guy

Liang Sang's inner monologue is as rich as ever.

But have you been reading too many random romance novels? This isn't a melodramatic farewell drama... Yamada Ryo's one-man show of melodrama continues.

[Call me to stop, call me to stop, call me to stop...]

"R-san, wait a minute..."

"What's wrong?" Yamada Ryo asked.

"If I go out today, could you help me pick out some clothes? I really have no idea how to put together an outfit..."

"no problem."

Liang Sang nodded, turned the wardrobe around, and found some clothes that Ming Zefeng had brought, as well as some that she had purchased... Her fashion sense was always on point, and although Ming Zefeng couldn't understand fashion at all, he could tell that he looked great.

Then she saw Yamada Ryo go into the house, and when she came out, she had changed into a matching outfit in contrasting colors.

Yamada Ryo wasn't embarrassed at all by his stare. With her usual calm expression, she said, "Why are you staring at me? Let's go."

[Starting with zero frames, you're not staring at me like an idiot... Damn, what am I doing? I even changed into matching outfits. Wasn't I supposed to be asking him out for dinner?]

R-san appears to be contemplating life.

Naruzawa Kaede quickly took two steps and pushed open the door. Yamada Ryo hadn't said where they were going yet. Although he had planned several dates before, he was still willing to go with Ryo-san.

"R-san, where shall we go for dinner?"

"There's a newly opened shop in Toyoshima... Circke is nearby, it's on the way. Has Kaede ever been there?"

"I've been around, and I've also visited a rooftop garden park and a planetarium nearby,"

"Is Maple interested in stars?"

"...Liang, I've heard that saying before."

They boarded the tram. There weren't many people on the tram after 10 PM, and there were still seats available. Yamada Ryo sat near the door, with Narusawa Kaede beside her, separating them from the outside world.

"Planets like Earth cannot produce heavy elements. The iron in the human body is a sediment from stellar fusion, and the zinc flowing in the blood is a cosmic jet produced after neutron star collisions. All life is a child of the stars, a creation of the universe over billions of years."

"My favorite line is, 'In this cosmic journey, only courage and music accompany us.' Space operas repeatedly showcase humanity's fantasies about the stars..."

Yamada Ryo listened attentively, then nodded. "...I didn't feel sleepy at all during my first class, Kaede. I wish you were my teacher..."

Mingze Feng breathed a sigh of relief; that was close.

He enjoys space exploration and space opera, but he's not interested in stargazing. The reason he avoids the topic of astrology is that the only time he ever went to an astrology museum was when he accompanied Ichiji Seika.

"But speaking of which..." Yamada Ryo said, "Are there any good space opera movies? Since Kaede likes them, we can buy them and watch them together on the way back..."

Chapter Thirty-Four: Accompanying Yamada Ryo to a Musical Instrument Store

If I had to pick the most memorable space opera, it would be the Soviet science fiction I watched when I was very young. Later, I learned that it was called "farsightedness".

Ryo Yamada nodded, captioned by the image of romantic poetry and distant places.

There's still a long weekend ahead, we can watch it together.

The train hummed into Shinjuku, and it was finally time to get off. Yamada Ryo suddenly remembered to ask Narusawa Kaede if she had ever been to Circle. She didn't go to such a professional livehouse often.

Mingze Feng has been to live houses, but not Live House Circle.

A few days ago, he accompanied Ichiji Hoshika to a new live house that had only been open for six months. The name of the place was Ring. They went together to investigate the popular live houses and learn from their advanced experience.

But Ring's experience... that place, located in Higashi Shinjuku, with five floors and a complete music industry service, including screenings, recordings, and instrument repairs... was something neither of them could fully absorb.

Finally, at Mingze Feng's suggestion, the two of them copied the flavor of Parfait.

Faced with such a monstrous beast, Ichiji Hoshika admitted that she couldn't possibly copy it even if she wanted to...

As for the relationship between Circle and Ring, simply put, Circle is the flagship store of Ring. The two have similar decorations, the staff are shared, and several bands that frequently visit Circle also work part-time at Ring.

Naruzawa Kaede could still see those familiar yet unfamiliar staff members at RING, such as Shiina Tatsuki and Toyama Kasumi... making one wonder if the boss only had these few employees.

Circle is an established brand, and while it may not be as luxurious as Ring, it has just as many facilities, music stores, rest areas, and entertainment areas.

Because they arrived early, the two of them had the opportunity to stroll around the Shinjuku area from top to bottom.

Ryo Yamada doesn't frequent live music houses because the atmosphere there doesn't suit her. She prefers staying home reading manga and listening to music, or browsing her favorite shops.

But she didn't come out alone today.

Mingze Feng cleared the way for her to get off the bus and led her forward by the hand.

Today is the day my favorite band invited them to a show.

Yamada Ryo touched the ground with her toes, humming softly as she leaned her shoulder against him. The thought of interacting with her revered senior filled her with excitement.

And the other...

At this moment, Mingze Feng had no interest in reading the words next to the passerby; he was lost in thought.

Because I was so close, I could feel Yamada Ryo's softness just from her arm. The back of my hand, which was pressed against her waist, occasionally brushed against the muscles of her waist and abdomen...it felt very elastic.

The two leaned against each other, shoulder to shoulder.

I stepped through the doors of Livehouse Circle.

The walls near the entrance displayed the main functions of each floor. Yamada Ryo looked up and immediately saw several brand-name musical instrument stores. She tugged at her arm.

Mingze Feng: "Then let's go up and take a drive. There's still some time before the agreed time."

The first floor is the fourth floor, inside the music store, where there are scattered customers and shop assistants. Notably, you can also see middle school students in uniform.

Musical instrument brands...

Although Mingze Feng was aware that different brands of musical instruments had their advantages in different ranges and scenarios, he believed that 99% of people couldn't hear these advantages.

At least he couldn't tell...

"But it looks beautiful, and the different materials used for the string necks make them feel different to the touch. It'll be amazing to play with a partner who likes it."

That's true. Compared to the bass guitar that Hiroi Kikuri has, Yamada Ryo's inventory is practically worthless.

Yamada Ryo called over a shop assistant, took down the bass guitar she had chosen, and handed it to Narusawa Kaede, saying, "Try it out, this one has a great bass range..."

"And this one, the strings are..."

[And this one, from Rick's Back, is this store that rich?]

Not only that, Narusawa Kaede can also see that Yamada Ryo likes the sound of that bass guitar.

She spoke eloquently, while Mingze Feng played one bass guitar after another, and gradually, one could really hear the difference.

This scene has a strange sense of déjà vu.

It's like a man accompanying his girlfriend shopping, only able to nod and say "okay" as she changes outfit after outfit.

Naruzawa Kaede could only nod and say, "Indeed."

Fortunately, Yamada Ryo didn't think he was being perfunctory, and even helped Narusawa Kaede massage his stiff fingers after the meeting.

At the same restaurant, Yamada Ryo held Narusawa Kaede's left hand and kneaded it intently, from the fingertips to the base of the thumb.

"Hmph, mmm~"

She hummed the music playing over the building's loudspeakers.

It's so great not having to test each one by one!

A female shop assistant handed me a glass of water and, taking advantage of the fact that there were no other customers in the store, started a conversation with some enthusiasm, "Hey customer, you're really amazing! I can't do what you did just now..."

Yamada Ryo didn't answer. Her focused expression made Narusawa Kaede breathe even more softly.

Naruzawa Kaede picked up the conversation, "My girlfriend is amazing, wow—"

Yamada Ryo placed his palm on the spot where she had pinched him and scoffed, "I'm just interested, and besides, I'm your employer... Who agreed to be your girlfriend?"

"Ryo-san, R-san, what did I do to upset you?"

It's hard to tell why, but Yamada Ryo doesn't seem angry.

"Let's go, let's go..." [If I stay any longer, I'll be tempted to order a bass...]

"...R-san, speaking of which, haven't I ever bought you a gift after knowing you for so long?"

"...well?"

"...Clerk, could you please book that bass room for me? Full payment, swipe my card!"

【No, why are you pretending to be rich in front of me?】

"Wait, wait a minute." Yamada Ryo frowned and pressed down on Naruzawa Kaede's hand. "I didn't ask you to buy anything. I did everything I wanted. I only did it because I wanted you to be with me... Put the card away."

"I know, I know all of that. Don't worry, you know how much I earned this week. I just wanted to buy you a gift..."

Naruzawa Kaede placed his hand on her palm. Unlike the calluses on her fingertips, Yamada Ryo's hand was very smooth and felt cool to the touch.

He simply took her hand in his.

A warm touch came from the back of his hand, and Yamada Ryo's strength gradually disappeared.

“...Okay, I understand,” she said.

[Where do you get the sudden urge to buy me a gift? You were so generous when you were living off me, yet you're still willing to spend money on me like this... I only wanted your performance... And returning the favor is such a hassle...]

"Then let's choose this bass?"

"...You can decide."

Mingze Feng nodded, thinking, "He bought a bass guitar for 330,000 yuan without hesitation. He's really made something of himself..." To be honest, this extravagant spending seemed to have been infected by some drunkard.

Even after carrying the new bass out of the music store, Yamada Ryo still stared intently at Narusawa Kaede's profile, pondering whether or not to return the bass as a gift.

"Alright, alright, stop thinking about it. The concert should start soon..."

"Hmm, I heard there are several bands today..."

Chapter Thirty-Five: Kikuri Hiroi Makes a Decision

A few hours earlier, it was around the time when Yamada Ryo and Narusawa Kaede were shopping at a bass store.

Saturday daytime, another location in Japan.

I don't know its location on the map.

Kikuri Hiroi was squinting at the sea.

She was here as soon as she woke up.

The gentle sea breeze, carrying the unique salty smell of early morning, caressed her neck, making her feel endlessly lazy.

"How beautiful, the gentle sea breeze, the long ribbon stretching across the beach... Ah ha."

She leisurely pulled out a beer she carried with her, "The beautiful scenery and the surging tide make this beer taste truly unique..."

"Ugh..."

By the way...

Where is this?

Hiroi Kikuri looked down at the liquor box in her hand. She had woken up in the middle of the night and was sitting here, but she had no recollection of what had happened.

He had no money to go back, and wanted to ask for help, but...

As expected, the phone was gone too.

"...Ahhh, I've lost myself again."

She squatted on the steps, hugging her knees, squinting her eyes, swallowing a sip of barley drink through a straw, and rummaging for change in her pocket.

"173 yen..."

send.

Fortunately, when I woke up, I still had some food I bought at the convenience store next to me, so I could borrow money for transportation from the local police station... Heh heh, there's always a way out.
