Only at times like this does her mind race, and she quickly finds a 'legitimate' reason for her actions, a reason that is so reasonable that no one can find any grounds for rebuttal.

Even with a legitimate reason, Chihaya Aine couldn't hear anything inside the door even with her ear pressed against it.

I can't hear anything at all.

This really worried her a lot, because she had no idea what the two people inside, a man and a woman, were talking about. What if they developed feelings for each other after being alone together for a long time?

Rikki, in particular, who wants to go from being a 'godmother' to a 'biological mother,' is really in danger!

At that time, she would be able to watch helplessly as Shiina Tatsuki and Kazami Mei's relationship grew better and better, which would be a huge crisis for Aine, who longed for a romantic ending!

"Damn it, I can't hear anything at all..."

“That’s a practice room for the band. It’s very soundproof, so of course you can’t hear anything.” Nagasaki Motoyo, who was behind her, also leaned in with a gentle smile.

Seeing the distressed look on the pink-haired girl's face, Nagasaki Motoyo suddenly had an idea.

Suddenly, as if struck by a revelation, she smiled and offered Ai Yin a terrible idea: "How about we secretly open a crack in the door? This door won't make a sound even if we open it."

"That makes sense!"

Nagasaki Motoyo's words instantly resonated with Chihaya Aine, who had initially felt it was inappropriate to secretly open the door a crack and "listen and watch."

But since the gentle Su Shi had already said that, she suddenly felt that it didn't matter anymore.

As expected of Suze-chan, who's like a mother to me, we really click!

Most importantly, she didn't have any feelings for Kazami Mei, and she wasn't some troublesome vixen. Compared to that tsundere Rikki, Nagasaki Motoyo made her feel much more at ease.

"Well, but..."

Takamatsu still seemed to feel uneasy, but even though she was flustered, she didn't know how to stop the pink-haired girl.

"It's okay, Dengdeng! Even if we get caught, it's fine~"

As she spoke, Chihaya Aine leaned half her body against the door and slowly turned the doorknob with her small hand.

Just as she managed to twist a crack in the door, it was suddenly pulled open from the inside. Miss Aine, caught off guard, lost her footing and immediately fell forward.

Her cute little face bumped right into Kazami Naruto's chest.

"Quaa?"

A slightly embarrassed smile immediately appeared on Chihaya Aine's cute face.

She ran headlong into Kazami Mei's subtle expression, and behind her, Shiina Ritsuki, who had a 'fierce' look on her face. A cold sweat immediately trickled down her smooth back.

"Haha~ The weather is so nice today."

Now I'm really sweating a lot.

"What are you doing? There's even Su Shi here?"

Kazami Mei narrowed her deep black eyes, staring intently at the pink-haired girl with an embarrassed smile on her face.

It was within his expectations that Chihaya Aine would eavesdrop, but what Kazami Mei didn't expect was that the pink-haired girl could actually persuade the well-behaved Kodama and Nagasaki Motoyo to become his 'accomplices' as well.

She can also spread rumors and mislead people!

"I'm so sorry, Naruto-san. I think Aine-chan was just worried that you and Ritsu-chan wouldn't get along, so she came to check on you."

"That's right! And the practice room is so soundproofed, we didn't hear a thing!"

Seeing that Nagasaki Motoyo was giving her a way out, Chihaya Aine immediately nodded her little head vigorously. Seeing her pitiful appearance, Kazami Mei certainly wouldn't be angry.

But the little face of Lixi standing behind him was so dark it was almost as if ink could drip from it.

If it weren't for his proud and aloof nature, Shiina Tatsuki wouldn't have gone out of her way to apologize to him separately.

As a result, Shiina Tatsuki, who was already on the verge of exploding with embarrassment and anger, had no idea how much the outside world had overheard.

She stared at Chihaya Aine with a very cold and sharp gaze, then clicked her tongue in a low voice.

Shiina Tatsuki tentatively believed Chihaya Aine's 'saying', took a breath to adjust her emotions and mindset, and then shifted all her attention to the matter to be discussed next.

"I just discussed the future of the band with Shiina, and we'd like to get everyone's opinions first."

"The band's..."

The perceptive Xiao Bideng was the first to react to this word. She immediately looked at Feng Jianming with a slightly uneasy gaze, but he immediately noticed the change in her emotions and winked at her gently.

Kazami Mei's subtle movements instantly dispelled her tension.

"So, what is it?" Nagasaki Motoyo spoke first, though she had a vague idea of ​​what it was about.

Kazami Mei revealed a slightly smug smile, looked at her, and slowly said, "Live."

Upon hearing this term, the group of people were clearly taken aback.

"Now that the new song is almost finished, shouldn't we start planning our first live performance?"

As if she had been preparing to talk about this topic for a while, Shiina Tatsuki suddenly took out a form from the side, which was a LiveHouse performance schedule that she had made while staying up all night.

Kazami Mei immediately spotted the end of the band's name on 'STARRY'.

On the other side was a list of performance times for various RiNG bands. Coincidentally, one band's performance was canceled at the last minute next month, leaving a red vacancy on the form. This meant that RiNG needed to find a band to temporarily fill in.

Shiina Tatsuki is a RiNG employee, so naturally he wouldn't let this opportunity pass him by.

"So, the reason Lixi-chan went to see the other staff members earlier was because of this?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Nagasaki Motoyo's eyes as she noticed the seriousness and earnestness in Shiina Tatsuki's eyes.

"Since we've decided to put a real effort into the band this time, holding a live performance is just a matter of time, right?"

Shiina Tatsuki's 'promise' to Takamatsu Akari was not just empty talk.

She was very serious about forming a band, and after making a promise to Deng, she planned to take on all the 'arrangement' and band-related matters herself, including arranging performances and preparations.

"Hey! Summer vacation is almost here next month, right? Why are you doing a live show so soon..."

"Isn't it a bit too early for everyone to go on stage and perform now?" Chihaya Aine was clearly still a little unsure of herself.

All told, she had only been practicing guitar for less than a month, so she was obviously not 'confident' about her skill level. In addition, she had never actually performed on a live stage before, so she was even less motivated.

A formal performance in a livehouse is completely different from a student council band performance in junior high school.

The student council band's 'Live' is, frankly, an amateur performance. Even if Chihaya Aine hung a guitar around her neck and sang, it wouldn't be a big problem. Even if she played something wrong, the junior high school students below probably wouldn't notice.

"I think our current level is pretty much fine." Li Xi said, arms crossed, brows furrowed. "Although our coordination is still completely lacking, that can be improved through practice."

So, should we do it or not?

Chapter Twelve: Who is that woman?! [5k]

The next day, in Haneoka, in the afternoon.

Even though the weather was extremely hot, the students in the classroom were already getting restless because it was almost time to leave school, and even the lecturer's handwriting on the blackboard became extremely haphazard.

Kazami Mei sat in her seat, calmly scanning the information on her phone screen.

"Next month, which is during summer vacation?"

Because she had already decided to do a live show with the members of Mygo when she was in RiNG, Kazami Naruto now occasionally keeps an eye on the promotional news of various LiveHouses and prepares for various live show-related work.

Of course, these most important matters were basically handled by the reliable Li Xi.

However, Kazami Naruto would try his best to help her, otherwise, if she was under pressure for too long and had no outlet to relieve the pressure, wouldn't she end up putting pressure on him?

This is called prevention before it happens.

"Lixi's work efficiency is really impressive. He's already achieved results?"

Kazami looked at the several files that Riki had sent him on Line with some surprise. There were some comments about the melody, and some important ones were carefully marked in red.

She even sent me an audio file herself.

Just as he was about to take out his headphones to listen to the audio editing file sent by Lixi, a message suddenly came from the 'End Band' live group. It was a 'STARRY' promotional picture sent by the great Hongxia Mama.

The sign clearly stated the performance time for "The End of the Band".

"Ok?"

[Nijika: Our first live performance is this Saturday! I hope everyone can practice the new song that Naru-san wrote during this time! Also, everyone needs to find a way to sell 5 tickets to the live performance, priced at 1500 yen each.]

[Nijika: Applause and Cheers.JPG]

[Bass Freak: Thumbs Up.JPG]

[Minister of General Affairs and Publicity: No problem! Five tickets will sell out in no time!]

[Minister of Internet Publicity: I wonder how many viewers there will be! I'm so excited!]

[Nijika: Kita-chan, it's probably best not to have too high hopes. After all, we're just a newly debuted band! Our top priority this time is to let the audience know that we, the 'End Band,' have debuted!]

Ichi Nijika's words were truly gentle.

As the younger sister of 'STARRY' owner Ijichi Seika, Nijika knew how difficult it was for a new band. Of course, Nijika also knew that the vast majority of the audience watching this live performance were there to see other bands perform.

It's not impossible that some people specifically buy tickets for 'The End of the Band'...

But there certainly won't be many.

Most people who come to see a live show probably have the mindset of 'I've already bought a ticket, so I might as well just watch it casually'.

If we say that their 'End Band' performance was a little lacking, or even that most of the audience didn't bother to listen at all and preferred to be scrolling through their phones, then it would be a dismal situation.

Many new bands that fail to make it big disband because they cannot withstand the psychological pressure of this kind of ordeal.

Even so, it's still much better than those college idols who work hard to practice dancing and singing, do all sorts of promotions, and are fully prepared, only to find that there's not a single audience member in the entire venue when they go on stage.

"So gentle." Kazami Mei couldn't help but smile.

If Hongxia were there, she would still smile and comfort everyone even if the performance failed, right?

But it's still class time, so why is everyone able to reply to messages in the group so quickly?

Kazami Mei couldn't help but glance at Kita Ikuyo ahead.

It was immediately noticed that although Miss Kita was staring at the blackboard, her fair fingers on her left hand were rapidly typing on the phone screen, as if she were changing chords on a guitar fretboard.

"Where's Pochi?" Kazami Naru turned her head to look to the side again.

Despite the sweltering heat, Goto Ichiri was still wearing a pink and white tracksuit. At that moment, she was repeatedly counting on her fingers, then covering her head with a terrified look, and repeatedly trying to hit her face with a table.

It seems that she didn't ignore the message, but rather got lost in her own world?

Perhaps it's because Pochettino couldn't find a way to sell five tickets? He said he understood.

"But five tickets..."

After careful consideration, Kazami Mei also needed to find a way to sell these five tickets.

To be honest, he didn't have any close friends.

Even if everyone sells all five tickets to Mygo, they can only sell four at most, because there is also Rana who basically doesn't carry any money. As a cat, she simply can't buy tickets.

"In that case, we'll have to choose between Xiao Mu and Xiao Xiang for the remaining ticket?"

Teacher Da Xiang feels it might be a little difficult to speak.

That's a full 1500 yen!

Normally, he probably wouldn't even be willing to spend that much. Can Mr. Daisho, who is even more frugal than Kazami Naruto, really be so heartless? He doesn't even dare to buy a 'drink voucher' just to come to a performance, and he has to precisely calculate how many days he'll have to eat bean sprouts.

If Teacher Daisho is willing to come and watch the performance, Kazami Mei even suspects that the other person might have a crush on him.

hum...

Just as Kazami Mei was still pondering what to do, a new message notification suddenly came through on her phone.

He initially thought it was a message from Lixi about live events and work documents, but it turned out to be a private chat that surprised him.

Ex-wife number 1 - Miss Liang.

Aside from asking him if he wanted to go out for a meal and discussing music-related matters, this bassist rarely had any private conversations with him, making it somewhat difficult to figure out what she was thinking.

[Bass Freak: I need your help with something after school.]

The meaning of the word is to correct the old wife

Kazami Naru: ?

"Hmm? You need something?"
