I just want a single ending

"Why are you alone? Where's Xiao Hailing?"

"She went to prepare."

Kamikawa Su answered truthfully.

"Then I'll go watch her performance with you."

Hiroi Kikuri stood with him naturally.

Chapter 131: Hachiman Hailing is Super Awesome

"Don't you need to prepare?"

Kamikawa Suku didn't mind her accompanying him to the show, but she also had to perform today, right?

"Our band will be performing very late today, so we have plenty of time."

After Hiroi Kikuri finished her casual explanation, she took out another box of wine and started drinking.

"That's it."

Kamikawa Supo was invited by her, not specifically to listen to music, so naturally he didn't know the specific performance time of their band.

Then, he changed the subject and asked, "Come to think of it, why did you suddenly want to introduce Hachiman to me?"

Kamikawa Su was quite happy to be able to meet new playable characters.

But in this case, we have to doubt Hiroi Kikuri's purpose.

It couldn't be that she decided to introduce Hachiman Kailing to me just to thank me for giving her cosmetics, right?

"Ah... well, I'll tell you when Xiao Hailing performs." Hiroi Kikuri started to keep the secret.

"alright."

It's still acceptable to just wait a little longer to know the answer.

Time passed minute by minute, and soon it was time for the performance of the band that Hachiman Kailing was in.

Looking at her standing on the stage, Kamikawa Su couldn't help but look forward to it.

After a brief introduction by the band, the performance began.

Ignoring the unnecessary noises from the lead vocals and guitar, Kamikawa Suku observed Hachiman Kairin's playing while listening carefully to the sound of the bass.

In this regard, he had to admit that Yawata Kailing's bass had indeed reached professional level.

He can use all kinds of techniques effortlessly and comfortably.

Compared with myself, they all seem to be no less inferior.

But if she really competed with himself and Bess, then Kamikawa Su could only say that he would definitely be the final winner.

How could a mere mortal bassist who played part-time in more than 30 bands be qualified to compare with him who had studied bass seriously for three hours using a study card?

She is the challenger!

While he was daydreaming, Hiroi Kikuri took the opportunity to ask, "What do you think of Xiao Hailing's bass?"

"Super impressive, and it feels like she hasn't used her full strength yet..."

Kamikawa Suku gave his evaluation seriously.

As a professional bassist himself, he could see that this level of performance was easy for Hachiman Kailing.

However, his current identity is a novice who has just learned to play the bass not long ago, so it is absolutely reasonable to describe her as a professional bassist as amazing.

"So do you want to reach the same level as her?"

After getting the answer she wanted, Hiroi Kikuri asked seductively.

"you mean……?"

At this point, Kamikawa Su had already guessed what she was going to say next.

Hiroi Kikuri patted his shoulder and said seriously, "With my guidance, your bass playing level can also reach that level."

"It is so!"

Kamikawa Suku had already guessed it just now.

No wonder she wanted to introduce him to a professional bassist of the same age as him, and even wanted him to accompany her to a performance.

It turned out that I was waiting here.

The key point of this matter is the same age.

If you are an average novice bass player, after seeing that your peers have reached the professional level of bass playing, while you have just started learning, you will indeed be very tempted by the current proposal of Hiroi Kikuri's achievements.

But he's no ordinary novice bass player.

"However, the compensation should also be increased accordingly. Just treating me to drinks is not enough... hehehe..."

Hiroi Kikuri became happier and happier as she spoke, and she could already see the bright future after he agreed.

Then, Kamikawa Su's voice rang out, breaking her fantasy.

"In that case, why don't I just go and learn from Hachiman-san?"

"Eh? Wait, wait a minute, are you planning on going to Xiao Hailing to learn bass?"

After hearing this, Hiroi Kikuri suddenly became much more sober.

“I just think it’s better that way.”

In fact, he no longer needs to learn bass skills. The so-called finding someone to teach him is just a way to rationalize the improvement of his bass skills.

If the purpose is just this, it is better to ask for help from Hachiman Kailing, a conquerable character, rather than the drunkard Hiroi Kikuri.

Although he already has the playable character Nagasaki Suyo to teach him.

But it doesn’t matter. He can handle it even if two people teach him at the same time.

Nagasaki Suyo couldn't stop him from pursuing a higher level of bass, right?

Besides, he had no intention of ignoring her.

"But, but... there's not enough time. Xiao Hailing usually has to take care of about ten bands. Those bands need to make reservations with her a week in advance. How can she have the extra time to teach you bass?"

Hiroi Kikuri hurriedly found an excuse to try to dissuade him from the idea.

"It seems you're right."

After some thought, Kamikawa Su found that this was indeed the case.

Today is the first time that I meet Hachiman Kailing. Under such circumstances, the probability of her agreeing to teach me the bass is not very high.

Not to mention, she usually has to take care of about ten bands.

As for using money to carry out the strategy?

He didn't believe that Hachiman Kailing, who played bass at a professional level and was supporting other bands, would be short of money.

"Yeah, so it's more reliable to ask me to learn bass."

Seeing that his attitude had softened, Hiroi Kikuri breathed a sigh of relief.

"...Then I'll trouble you."

After a brief thought, Kamikawa Su finally did not refuse.

The reason is simple. After failing to get closer to her by having Hachiman Kailing teach him bass, the only option left is to have indirect contact.

Hiroi Kikuri has a good relationship with her, and they both often perform here.

Therefore, asking Kikuri Hiroi to teach me bass was a very good opportunity to get in touch with her.

As long as she chooses to teach bass here, he will have a reasonable reason to come to this livehouse.

After all, he rarely came here before, but after knowing that Hachiman Kailing would perform here, he came here frequently.

Anyone who is not stupid can know the reason for this change.

Therefore, in order to make his purpose less obvious, the best solution was to let Hiroi Kikuri choose to teach him bass here.

Besides, it was she who asked him to learn bass, not him who asked her to do so.

Even if it is investigated, it will not be considered his fault.

"Great!"

Seeing that he finally agreed, Hiroi Kikuri was so moved that she wiped away her non-existent tears with her sleeves.

"I need to ask, where are you going to teach me bass?" Kamikawa Su asked this most crucial question.

"It's up to you. I can go to your tutoring house."

Hiroi Kikuri doesn't care about this attitude.

Kamikawa Su smiled and asked, "Can you teach me bass here in the future?"

Chapter 132 She is definitely more important now

"it's here?"

Hiroi Kikuri subconsciously glanced at the surrounding environment.

"Correct."

Kamikawa Su gave his affirmation.

"That's not possible. Xiao Hongxia and I are completely different, and the livehouse is not my home." Hiroi Kikuri is quite clear about this aspect.

Kita Ikuyo and Chihaya Aine can borrow Starry's practice room when the band is not using it, simply because the livehouse is run by Ijichi Kouka's sister.

Not all bands can use the livehouse's practice room unscrupulously.

Want to use it? Sure!

Just give money.

"That's okay, I can pay." Shangchuan Su understood what she was worried about. "It's mainly because it's not appropriate for me to bring you back to my house. It's easy for people to misunderstand and spread some strange rumors."

Even though he had brought Yamada Ryo to his home alone before, he lied at this moment as if he was really worried about this matter.

"If you're willing to pay, then there's absolutely no problem." Hiroi Kikuri looked very confused. "But I'm just going to your house to teach you bass. How could anyone misunderstand me?"

"If I bring a drunk woman home, it will definitely be misunderstood!"

Staring at the unfinished box of wine in her hand, Shangchuan Su added this prefix.

"It's okay. I don't mind."

Hiroi Kikuri accepted the possible situation calmly.

"The main reason is that rumors like that would have a negative impact on a boy like me, and it would be too troublesome to explain."

Kamikawa Suku didn't want a mere drunkard like Hiroi Kikuri to create even the slightest obstacle in his pursuit of a single life.

He is a boy himself, so it is quite difficult for him to become purely friendly friends with those conquestable characters.

If a strange rumor spread that I often brought a drunk woman home, it would definitely affect their impression of me.

Even if we can explain it clearly to them, it still takes time and evidence.

What's more, explanations may not necessarily be believed.

After all, Hiroi Kikuri loves drinking very much and is drunk all day long, which makes her unreliable.

A man and a woman were alone in a room, and she was drinking. All the elements of suspicion were present!

Since it is so troublesome, it is better to prevent such rumors from appearing in the first place.

Also, only by choosing this livehouse as the practice location can we have an excuse to come here and get close to Hachiman Kairin, and this is the key point.

"That does make some sense, but I always feel like my status in your eyes is so low. Obviously, such rumors would have a greater impact on a girl like me, right?"

Hiroi Kikuri noticed something unusual in his words again.

Kamikawa Suku smiled and replied, "No, you're the teacher who will be teaching me bass, Hiroi Kikuri. How could your status be lower?"

If she was a captureable character, he would naturally welcome her to his home, just like Yamada Ryo, Nagasaki Suyo and others.

Some even actively invite them to their homes for study sessions.
